" when mother served hot cakes,, fresh
t hoi hoiue-niade biscuits, waffles, loo
for breakfast?along with homluy
r j (grits, grist) bam and gravy. On thai
?l sort of "vltllea" men cleared the for
eaia and mumped the fields. Men
- were men In those days. Hut now,
[ forsooth, what have we? l>uugtiler,
In her lurn, la a housekeeper. And
' she serves whal? Why bread from a
' bakery, and It must be sliced at the
, bakery! Too much labor to slice a
loaf of bread. Soou the baker will
be asked to chew It. too. My word!
Oh time, oh customs! Daughter will
run around the stores two hours, to
avoid thirty minutes of work at home.
The ladles, bluss 'em, are now running
all about for shelled nuts rather
that devote thirty minutes to shelling
u few Women used to earn their
way as housekeepers, now they spend
their way. -what?
Well, this Is getting In pretty deep,
for this Is deep stuff. Poor old mother
used to bake for Christmas oh,
my!?fruit cakes, light and dark, cocoanut
cakes, tnince ides, potato cuslard
pies - and all that; but Daughter
bios a cake, or buys the ingredients
already mixed, If she can spare the
time from the clubs.
And the old man, now ,?how does
he fare? Does he come to the table
with a buoyant step like Alexander
conquering the world? Nay nay; he
slides in gently and quaffs his tomato
Juice, munches a transparent piece of
toast, sips a swallow of coffee and
j goes forth Into the battle of life ready
to compromise or surrender. Too
bad! I've read that the tnlnd Is clearer
if the body be stinted of food; that
when one fasts he has visions and
dreams dreams; that "the imagination
bodies forth in forms of things
unseen"?and so on, you know. All
of which suggests that ninety per
cent of all the vague, unfounded socalled
thinking of today Is due to
poor nourishment.
After all is said and done, you can't
lick the world under the inspiration
of a gulp of sour kraut "likker." Nowreal
old "pot-llkker", with a chunk of
cornbread and a hunk of "side-meat"
?now that's another story. Yes. men
were men in those days. They could
"take It." as the elegant language of
today would phrase it. We. poor weaklings
of robust parents, if we eat ten
cents worth of real grub we spend
I ten dollars for physicians and physic.
It's a sad thought, mates.
"What we must do to save the
country is to do away with breakfast
illusions and eat more ham and hominy.
The old-time mother! Wasa t she a
queen in her kitchen? She ditin t
boss her old man, nor run the farm,
nor manage the church, nor direct the
clubs. Hut didn't she rise to heights
of supreme splqndor in her kitchen?
What feasts she provided! Sons and
daughters, grandsons and granddaughters
from far and wide remember her
dishes and rejoice to come home. She
was happy to see the boys eat. Not
many of those old-time mothers left.
Nowadays they all open the same kind
of canned stuff.
Who said that we are poor? Well,
if I said it. 1 should have qualified
my statement, as becomes a man
trained in the law. Not every man
among us is poor; nor can I say that
1 y:is was a bad year for everybody.
Not so, indeed Some among us may
have occasion to look back on 193S
as a year of sje-< lal blessings, brimful
of all the good tilings of life, sue!
culetit. even, in rn h plentitude and
i amo: osi.il delight Kvcli so.

now. tiler,- be those whose stockings
were full of good things even when
the rest of us couldn't guard our few
ran-in - because of the holes in the
i ,

Say. what do you think of this?
I Din e there was a man who occupied
1 a position of trust and received nearly
six hundred dollars a month from
the public purse. Get that, now, six
hundred dollarB a month, every
month, twelve months In the }'2ar,
every year. Even so. Nip frosts, nor
rain, nor drouth, nor hall troubled
him No! His money was surk?
every month. No glutted world market
affected his Income, no bountiful
corn crop reduced his earnings. No.
sirree! Six hundred Iron men every
month And he has a member of his
family on the payroll of the public,
. too, although those six hundred si!
moleons should suffice to feed and
clothe all and singular the family
. aforesaid. And there be others, my
, brethren. They tell me of a man
with one public salary of about three
thousand dollars a year for Ave
months work, who also has another
public Job at a salary reputed to be
five thousand dollars. And a boy or
[ ttftf'Uho 611JWpublic recompense for
public Services.
Ye?, I tell you; there be men
. among ua who should remember that
- while the rest of us can't reach the
fodder it hangs low in the rack for
thvnv If they don't offer special
thanks for the rich prosperity of 1938
they should look at the rest of us.
I repeat, some people are feasting
while most of us are pulling Ju the
belt another notch.
Senator Harry F. Byrd has been
invited to address the annual convenI
tion of the Farmers and Taxpayers
I League sometime this month, possibly
the eighteenth; if convenient to him.
The senator has accepted, conditioned
upon being able to leave Washington.
The league has requested Senators
Smit hand Byrnes to cooperate in
making it possible for Senator Byrd
to come.
While governor of Virginia, Mr.
Byrd re-organized the state government
and made a notable reduction
in the number of offices maintained
and in the cost of the government.
Virginia, though much larger and
richer than South Carolina, has not
as many public offices as we have.
Senator Byrd is invited as an expert
on state government who has accomplished
something in a big way.
The league will fix any date that
may assure the coming of Senator
Byrd.
My, my, my. As though to rebuke
Spectator for saying that the housewives
of today don't perform the cullnary
art with the profusion and skill
of our mothers, Spectator must tell
of being a guest at a baronial estate
of renown in old Clarendon?near
where the Sautee rushes along to the
first proposed dam.
The family in residence is not one
to rejoice over a drop of tomato Juice.
Here's a truthful account of what
was offered to Spectator, though he.
alas, could not measure up to the
occasion, albeit he "holp himself lavetious,"
as a Sumter county man once
said.
Look at this kingly feast: Itice,
biscuits (homemade and hot"), turkey
and gravy, ham and gravy, turkey
dressing, chicken salad, potato salad,
spinach, stewed tomatoes, macaroni,
pickle, lima beans, cranberry sauce,
salted nuts, homemade candy, lemon
plo, cocoanut pie, white fruit cake,
dark fruit cake, pound cake, nut-date
cake, banana cake, chocolate cake,
cocoanut cake, lemon cake, gelatine
(in Christmas colors) with whipped
cream, tea and coffee.
In the preparation of this spread
seven dozen eggs were used.
Spectator will have to swallow (If
able to swallow anything more) what
ho has said, perhaps Still, this good
housewife is a grandmother at that?
though, of course, a very youthful one.
There was no "llcker" in the fruit
rake, nor on it, nor about it. Grandma
will not permit anything more ardent
about the plantation than grandpa's
pipe?which is a strong concession,
believe me. But grandma herself had
Indulged In a cooking spree, like the
sainted grandmothers of old. Spectator,
even in moments and moods <^f
poetic frenzy, must perforce coins
down from th$ Olympian heights and
Blysian delights to the hard realities
of the common-place, so he surveyed
grandpa to ascertain how he if as
"holding up under the strain." He
was holding hla own, fortified by that
1 remarkable pipe, which never weakens.

There was an increase of 142 patients
or an increase of 1,334 days
furnished all patients. There^ was an
increase In expense of $5,514.57 over
1937. This Increase is accounted for
by the increase of 1.334 days of hospital
service furnished over 1937, also
additional expense by adding two supervisors
during 1938. We were compelled
to have an anesthetist to give
gas as we were given the gas machine
by the Indies Auxiliary, of which the
hospital has always felt the need. It
has been a great addition to the hospital.
We were fortunate In securing
the services of an expert, ami her
work is very satisfactory to the surgeons.
The other addition was an
operating room supervisor, whose
work Is also satisfactory and of great
benefit to the institution.
The Women's Auxiliary has continued
their splendid work during the
past year and are continuing their efforts
to raise funds to assist in many
ways The Junior League continues
their tonsil clinic. The value of the
Women's Auxiliary and the JuniorLeague
cannot be too highly commended.
There are constant demands made
each year for improvemeuts to the
building and equipment in order that
they may be kept in good condition.
Each year we spent for this purpose
such funds as are available from cur
general account of the hospital, but
these funds fall to cover the cost of
repairs and replacemnts necessary to (
keep up the property You are aware
that the building is badly in need of
paint, the private rooms are showing
up very badly and should be the first j
work done In painting and as soon as
possible |
The heating plant for furnace In
main building was changed from an
oil burner to a coal stoker during the
year The stoker has been extremely
satisfactory, heating the buildluK
all departments, maintaining a pressure
of five pounds to the boiler, as
guaranteed by John M. VUleplgue and
Company, who Installed the stoker.
I wish to express my appreciation
of the continued support of the board
of directors, the excellent cooperation
and advice of Dr. John W. Corbett,
our president, and other members of
the board. j
