SAVE YOUR PAPER
Conserve paper! That request has
boon made to all the people by the
government. Even before we were In
the war, the government was using
one-third of "the nation's puper box
production for arms needs, and now
military demand will rapidly Increaso.
On top of that, the armed forces have
many other important uses for puper
of,:' all kfnds. The cheapest forms of
paper, such as newsprint, can bo reclaimed
and made Into boxes und othor
articles.
When you do your shopping, get along
with a minimum of wrapping. The
National Association of Food Chains
offers consumers five good suggestlbns
when It says: Don't ask for a bag
when an Itom Is already packaged.
Don't ask for separate bags unless
necessary?or any bag at all If ,,you
have only a few Items to carry. Take
groceries In cartons when availablethen
use the cartons as receptacles In
which to save waste paper at home.
Remember to save on all kinds of paper.
?
Don't think tho stores you patronlzo
are being stingy whon they stop using
paper, string, tape and other wrappings
in the wnatefully lavish form
we've become used to. When they cut
down on paper use, they are cooperating
with the government. This Is just
one more of tho many ways retailing
In all Its branches, chain store and independent
store alike, fft serving the
country now.
Every family can help In the conserve
paper drive. Savo all you can
and turn it in when you reach a substantial
poundage. The Army and
Navy need It.

DuBose's Eleventh
Hoar Shot Wins
'* ' , Charles
(Rubber) DuBose, captain
of the Palmetto polo foursome waited
until the final second of the lost chukker
to drive over the goal that gave
his team a tf to 6 decision over the
Hambler foursome on the No, J Held
Sunday afternoon.
A crowd of sevearl hundred fans I
huddled In cars to brave a freezing j
temperature Olid watch twq finely
matched polo teams battle It out on
the velvety surfaced polo field. The
Ramblers, captained by Joe Rates
looked like potential winners In the
first half of the game tftking a 1 to
0 lead lu the Initial chukker when
Whit Doykln, No. 2 player, drove the
willow between the uprights. Robertson's
shot evened the count oarly In
the second period but Rates put bis
team to the front at the bell. Lightfoot's
first of three goals of the afternoon
pastime came In the third and
evened the count, but the Ramblers
again soaroi} to the fore on Harrison's
nice shot. Llghtfoot's second goal,
coining In iho fourth porlod tied up the
game and the hell at the end of the
chukker found the Ramblers whitewashed.
The Palmettos took the lead
for the llrst time In the afternoon
whei^ DuBose scored In the fifth as
the Ramblers were again held scoreless.
In the sixth there was plenty
of action. Harrison scored to even
1 the count again, but Llghtfopt shot
his third goal und it wus the most
brilliant exhibition of shooting seen all
! afternoon, putting the Palmettos In
the load. Harrison came right back
with his third counter of the afternoon
and the game was all tied at 6-all.
With but Ave seconds left to play
the ball went Into action. DuBose and
Tupper, aided by Lightfoot and Burns
rushed the willow down the field toward
the Rambler posts. Seeing an
opening DuBose laced at the rolling
willow just as the bell sounded. Like
lu the recent Mulberry-Ilamblbr game,
the ball rolled through for a goal and
victory for the Palmettos. It was the
s /cond time In a second consecutive
game that DuBose scored on a shot
that started at the bell and rolled over
a counter.

Langston tells How I
To Conserve Tires |
At the. Rotary meeting held last
Thursday. President Moultrie Burns
welcomed back the club and Its members
after an absence of regular meetings
for a, period of three weeks?due
to national holidays?Christmas da,y
and New Year, both following on
Thursday. , *
Lieuteuant R. B. Pitts, Jr., was a
guest of his father and the eiub re*
ceivedaud accepted the resignation
as a member of Prank Hultz. Frank
is now at ppqgtur, Alabama, with the
Southern Aviation School there.
The program, the first of the year,
was in (barge of Perry Langston of
the Langston Motor Company, and at
the outset Mr. Langston spoke ou the
strained situation of the country and
to the war, and he urged conservation
of transportation and mentioned
.the need of periodical checking of
your car and tires in order, to conserve
both. An automobile will not
wear out with, twenty thousand miles
of use, but If properly checked and
cared for Is good for one hundred and
twenty thousand miles. He saftrtlres
should be checked weekly aiid at forty
miles per hour, both car and tires,
will be best cared for and transportation
will be best in every particular.
? He urged car drivers not to be
"leud-fobted" or "curb-scrapers." A
picture on a silver screen was shown
depicting?mine, factory and oil wells
^and the need of each by the United
States army. It Bhowed how tires
will lust twice as long with a car
driven at thirty miles as against sixty
miles and that your tires should be
changed from one wheel to another
and your spare should be used since
It will deteriorate when kept out
when kept out of use. After the picture,
Mr. Langston urged all to prpIIt
by having seen It and the lesson
It taught and thereby conserve and
Bave your car, tires and gasoline, and
by the way, it was in no way a salestalk.
It was most Instructive as well
as entertaining. It was an excellent
program.

Poultry, Eggs To
Meet S. C. Goal
Clem8on, Jan. 12?According'to government
reports, South Carolina produced
24,462,000 dozen eggs in 1941.
The state is asked as a part In the national
defense program to produce 26,460,000
In 1942, which is an increase
of 1,998,000 dozen or 8 percent more
than in 1941.
"This Increase of egg production
should not be Hard to obtain", said P.
H. Gooding, poultry specialist of the
piemson College Extension Service,
speaking on poultry production goals,
at the extension workers' conference
last week. "If one-third of the hens
in the state that are not now properly
fed were given a full feed of a well
balanced ration for one year, these
hens would supply tfie requested increase
in egg production. This exceptional
improvement in feeding will
not occur, but if some good feeding
practices are adopted along with the
Improvement of breeding stock, early
purchase of chickH to be kept for layers.
and more comfortable houses for
layers, this requested increase should
he easily obtained.
"But the people of South Carolina
should not be satisfied with this increase",
Mr. Gooding continued. "Even
if It is obtained the state will still have
a heavy deficit in poultry production.
This should not be, and the farmers
of South Carolina should continue to
increase and improve their poultry
flocks at least until the state ceases
to be a deficit poultry state.
"Farmers must realize, however,
lhat the nearer this goal Is approached
the more competition they will have.
Hence prices will bo somewhat lower
and it- will he necessary in some
localities to sell through organized
markets. When this system of marketing
is adopted there will always he a
ready market, even though prices may
he lower. It will then be still more
netessary to use good breeding stock
and follow tho best practices in management
in order that our farmers
may compete successfully with farmers
in other sections of the country."
