ONLY 123 HEROE8 OF 8IXTIE8
LIVE IN 80UTH CAROLINA
Columbia, Juno 5.?The gray-clad
veterans of the sixties meeting here .
for their national reunion in August
Will find Father Time has gleaned
heavily among the warriors who returned
to South Carolina.
The state, claiming the first shot
for the cause of the Confederacy,
echoed within her boundary, will do
well to furnish a hundred representatives
in the parade fch?,c features the
reunion to open August 80.
Year by year the state appropriation
for pensions has dwindled as the
ranks of the valiant warriors of another
generation lingered to teach
the youngsters the rebel yell and occasionally
meet down memory lane
with another stalwart of the conflict
between the states.
There were 2,625 veterans on the
pension rolls in 1926 but each succeeding
mouth saw them laid to rest
here and there over the state until
last year only 261 remained.
The reaper's scythe has struck a - i
faster tmepo in the past few months
as only 123 warriors are now receiving
the annual $240.
The widows?many young in comparison
with their husbands?have
however, been thinned by the years.
In 1925 there were 4,960. In 1937
2,148 were living. This year 1,430 are
receiving pensions.
The pensions for veterans and widows
aggregated $748,100 in 1926,
$372,680 in 1937 and this year they approximate
$225,000.
For the year beginning July 1, the
state has approximately $271,997.

Does Four Things
If you conduct a retail store, there are four things
you wish to do:
(1 ) You wish to HOLD all of your present customers
(2) You wish to sell more goods to your present customers
(3) You wish to REPLACE with new customers the
old ones who move away
(4) You wish to INCREASE THE NUMBER of your
customers.
Thus you have four objectives. Not one of these objectives
can be reached by doing nothing. None of
these objectives can be wholly realized without ad
