/ / BIG THIRST — That’s what this huge, 75-foot intake structure that is being imbedded in the floor of Lake Jocassee will have when it starts feeding 6 million gallons of water per . minute into the turbines at Duke Power’s Jocassee Pumped Storage Hydroelectric Station in 1974. During the early morning hours, when the demand for elec tricity is not as heavy, the station’s generators will be reversed into mo tors, turning turbines into pumps, and part of the water used the pre vious day will be pumped from Lake Keowee back into Lake Jocassee for use again. Two such structures are being built. Dear Sally BY SALLY SHAW PEAR SALLY: I’m a suc- ftsstul salesman, and my Ihjs- requires me to accept OMttrous invitations to social gatherings. My lovely wife is normally a very shy woman, but before we go to one of these parties she feels she must take a few q^lck drinks at home to bolster her morale and relax her--then when we arrive at the party she continues to ac cept drinks until she can hardly stand up and her conversation becomes muddled. She never drinks at all at other times, so I know she isn’t an alco holic. But I surely would like to break her of this sense less habit. Any suggestions 0 INDIANA. DEAR INDIANA: Use some of your “successful’ salesman ship on your wife. Sell her >n the fact that her naturally shy and lovely self is far, far super ior to the social muddle she makes of herself when she “re laxes* with the liquor. DEAR SALLY: I’m a young woman of 23, deeply in love with a wonderful guy who loves me, too, and wants me to accep an engagement ring. My par ents, however, are against this, simply t>ecause he happens to be the product of a shattered mar riage. They claim that child ren of divorce are not good prospects for happy marriage, and that their marriages are sure to end up the same as those of their parents. What do you say about this 0 TRUDE. DEAR TRUDIE: Your par ents’ reasoning is illogical. Your marriage to this young man has as good a chance of success as any marriage -- in fact, possibly a better chance. He has experienced the unhap piness of a broken home and will more than likely make extra- strong efforts to see that noth ing like that happens to his own marriage. DEAR SALI Y- Our son is 25, unmarried, and lives with us. Despite the fact that he earns substantial income, spends lots of money on new cars, boats, clothes, and pleasure, he has never since his graduation from college contributed a penny to our household expenses. We are not mercenary people, but THE CHRONICLE, Clinton, S. C., Sept. 10, 1970—3-C Lydia Mill News MRS. CLYDE TRAMMELU somehow it doesn't seem right that a young man of his age should be taking for granted his nice room in a nice home, his meals, his laundry, and many other “fringe benefits.’ Don’t you think we have a right to suggest that he give something in return? OSHKOSH. DEAR OSHKOSH: Most cer tainly, and you should have asked this long before now! The paying of board by working children living with their par ents is Just and right and cust- omary--and your son should be only too happy to contribute at least twenty per cent of his salary for all the services and comforts he has up to now been getting for free. DEAR SALLY: I’m a girl of 16, considered quite attractive, and crazy about a certain good- looking boy in my class at school. Whenever we are alone he acts very friendly and in terested in me, but whenever he is with some of his friends he acts indifferent and hardly even speaks to me. This is nerve-wracking. Is there any thing I can do about it? PINS AND NEEDLES. DEAR PINS AND NEEDLES: Yes. Get him alone. Tricentennial Beard Contest JOIN 1670 1970 Brothers of the Brush $1.00 — Button Mr. and Mrs. H. W.
