C. Wall Sr., chairman of the board of Canal, said the plant will cost in excess of $1 million initially and is scheduled to go into operation early next year on a two-shift basis. Wall said the 35 persons would be hired locally. The Conway businessman said the new Greenwood County plant at first would process pine logs into lumber and chips.

(I I 94i 108 W. Pitta St Clinton, S. C. County, State and Nationwide observance of Soil Stewardship will take place the week of May 11-18, 1969. Many of the churches of various denominations in Lau rens County will be using the week to remind the congregation that stewardship of natural resources needs to be practiced on the local level, both for the good of the •Nation and in response to mans’ status under God, says Rev. Guy E. Smith Jr., chaplain of the Lau rens Soil and Water Conservation District. In the broad scope of citizenry participation in the welfare of the Nation, it is the aim of Soil Stewardship Week to emphasize that the basic motivation for con servation and orderly develop ment of natural resources is mans’ recognition of his respon sibility under God to protect and use wisely His precious gifts of soil and water. “Soil Stewardship is every- txxly’s business,” says Milton Y. Blakely, a supervisor of the Lau rens Soil and Water Conserva tion District and chairman of the J^ca^ol^tewardshij^ Commit tee. We all depend upon the soil and water for our food, clothing, and shelter. Just about everything that goes into the grocery bag comes from the soil, and water helped the land produce it. These two important natural resources become more important each year and join in soil steward ship observance. As a public service, the Lau rens Soil and Water Conserva tion District has provided help ful information to churches over the county. Those choosing to participate will do so according to their own plan. JOHN C. HARMON 302 N. Broad — 833 3472 Nationwide Insurance. The man from Nationwide is on your side.
