Dear Sally
BY SALLY SHAW
DEAR SALLY: I’m a youuf
man of 27, and my girl friend
claims the reason for my re
luctance to discuss marriage Is
sfupld. Here’s my reason: My
fe mer walked out on my mother
fifteen years ago, and recently
my older brother did the same
thing to his wife. I feel that thlf
sort of thing Is in my genes,
and that it Isn’t smart for me
to marry. What do you think
about this? HESITANT HENRY.
DEAR HESITANT: i agree
with your girl friend..and I
also think you’re using this as
an excuse to escape marriage.
Why don’t you seekprofesslonal
help and hit on the REAL rea
son?
DEAR SALLY: Our nephew, a
lawyer, recently handled a legal
matter for us, and handled it ex
ceptionally well. It has now been
more than a month since the
final settlement, and we have not
yet received a bill for his ser
vices. Shall we Just assume that
he is not going to charge us, or
should we mention something a-
bout this to him? MIDWEST.
DEAR MIDWEST: By all
means, get in touch with him and
inquire about his fee. If he de
clines to charge you, thank him
sincerity to your expressions of
appreciation, send him some
sort of personal gift for his
kindness.
DEAR SALLY: I’m a terribly
embarrassed girl of ly. Recent
ly a certain boy asked me for a
date to go to a movie on aSatur-
day evening. Then another much

cuter boy asked me for the
same night, and since this was a
boy I had long been wanting to
date, I accepted and phoned the
first boy telling him that "an
emergency* had arisen in my
home that prevented me from
going with him on that evening.
Well, I almost sank through the
floor that night when I and the
second boy ran Into the first
boy at the theatre! I’m almost
sick with embarrassment! Is
there anything at all I can do to
make things right with the first
boy? SHARON.
DEAR SHARON: Pm afraid
not You’ve already demon
strated to him your lack of
integrity and honor, and if the
world gets around, it’sgoingto
do some unpleasant things to
your popularity.
DEAR SALLY: My husband
and I are embroiled in a big
argument over the naming of
our first child, which is due in
about five months. If it’s a boy,
I want very much to name him
for my husband--but he is vio
lently opposed to this. He was
named for his father and claims
it was plain torture growing up
with the name of “Junior* tack
ed onto him. He further claims
this just makes for confusion
when a father and son carry
the same name, and that there’s
no sense in it. How can we
settle this argument? MRS.
JUNIOR.
DEAR MRS. JUNIOR: Such
an argument over something not
all that important! Since your
husband feels so strongly about
another junior in the family,
surely you can go along with him
on this. And incidentally, aren’t
you even THINKING of girls’
names?

Farm-City Week
Coincides With Harvest
BY M.L. OUTZ
COUNTY AGENT
This is Farm-City week. The
purpose of Farm-City Week is
to give farmers and city folks
a chance to get together and
chat about their activities and
what they are accomplishing.
This event coincides with the
harvest season and Thanksgiv
ing.
Farmers have an impressive
story to tell, but here is what I
hear most. "Agriculture has
gone from our county.’ It has
changed, I’ll admit, but it hasn’t
gone. For instance, we have one
farm in Laurens county that

produces enough eggs to give
every person in the county an
egg a day. This is Knight bro
ther’s at Princton who have
75,000 layers. Julian Burton
at Madden’s also has 75,000.
This would give us another, and
we have actually enough poultry
to supply a half dozen eggs a
day for each person in the
county.
On the dairy side we pro
duce enough milk to supply
each individual a pint and a
half every day of the year,
assuming that we have 50,000
people. On beef cattle, to our
best judgment we feel like we
produce close to 100 pounds of
beef for each individual in the
county annually. Of course, this
type of agriculture is so dif
ferent from what we are all
use to that we are all inclined
to say farming is gone. I guess
it depends on what kind of farm
ing you are looking for. We
have not discussed the other
phases of agriculture in which
we are involved.
A great many of our citi
zens who were raised on the
farm but now live elsewhere
feel like if you don’t have a
mule and plow stock, and a hoe
in your hand, that here is no
thing going on. Those are now
considered the “goodole days.’
However, none of us want to
return to that type of agricul
ture. I do say, we have a lot
of room to grow and expand
in agriculture, but our people
do deserve to make a living
out of their investment, and I
certainly do not intend to en
courage people to stay on the
farm unless he can make a
decent standard of living.

LAYAWAY OR CHARGE IT AT CATO'S
I was talking with Dr. Gol
den who is head of our Ex
tension Economics department
at Clemson, and he said the
consumers have the best se
lection and the ctieapest fond of
any country in the world. He
said there are $109 Billion
Dollars spent for food in our
country and farmers receive
only-HD of this. Farmers share
has decreased over the years
due in most part to higher
cost in marketing operations--
that is the fancy packaging, etc.
During the 60’s our hourly
earnings of employees in food
marketing rose 50 r .
"It should be pointed out
that although food prices rose
19G during the GO’s, real per
capita income after taxes and
charge in prices rose by 31 r t .
Food prices simply have not
gone up as fast as real in
come. This is supported by ttie
fact that tlie average U.S. con
sumer can buy his family fed
supply for 1G 1/Y of his in
come (after taxes). In 1960
the average U.S. Consumer was
spending 20 r ( of his income af
ter taxes for food.
The average consumer intlie
British Isles spends 25', Ja
pan 37 r ( , and Russia 50' ( . This
is for less comparable diet.*
One thing that we can always
count on, and that is the con
sumer sending off loud and
clear when food prices go up
just a little bit, while the pri
ces of cars, refrigerators,
household goods, etc., can go
up constantly almost unnoticed.
I am always amused that our
daily newspapers that are back
ed by a lot of capital never
hesitate to increase prices,
and, yet, when the price of
milk or some other farm com-
modity increases we get a lot
of editorials, etc., from the
same people that ask that they
receive higher prices for their
labor and investment.
Yes, we have a lot of ag
riculture but not the variety
that I and most middle age
folks were brought up on.
