The program Saturday night, put
on under the auspices of the Young
Men's Business League of Orange
burg and broadcast by Station WSB
of Atlanta, was greatly enjoyed by
many Barnwell people who listened in
over the radio.
. The program was scheduled to last
one hour, but ran for nearly two, at
the end of which trine the apnouneer
stated that, telegrams were still pour
ing in. In fact, he declared tha^
when stacked one on the other, the
telegrams would reach a height of
five feet:—7 . ^

Leading off on the program was
Rut L. Osborne, former comptroller
general, president of the Young Men’s
Business league of Orangeburg, who
delivered an address painting in strik
ing colors the wonders of ’Orange
burg and in fact the entire State,
mentioning in particular the Univer
sity of South Carolina, the Citadel
and the proposed $300,000 hotel for
Orangeburg.
Announced as a “boy musical pro

14 BILLIONS! CHEAP.
SOCIALISM DEFINED.
SCIENCE USEFUL.
ASHES OVER GOLD.
\ Suggestion and A Question.
Editor, Tho People-Sentinel:
of Charleston and our Southland. It
is strikingly historic. Dr. Richar 1
Furman. Sr., a great and influential
patriot of the Revolution, for whose
Lending tbgt required Southern
touch to the program was the sing
ing of Negro spiritvtajs by a sextet
of male voices from South Carolina
Negro A. and M. college situated in
Orangeburg. That number literally
brought dow^a protracted shower of
telegrams into WSB and the an
nouncer at the tadio station said
that he had never put such a rendi
tion of spirituals on the air from WSB
before.
All -in all, Orangeburg for some
two hours permeated the atmosphere
Saturday night and incideritly did a
wonderful piece of advertising for
the State as well as the town.
The Bureau of Industrial Tech-,
nology says it costs the United
States FOURTEEN BILLIONS A
YEAR to buy automobiles and
keep them running.
That’s more than the amount
lent to Europe during the war
and it is also a better investment
than the war loan. From Europe
for our ten billions we get criti
cism, the accusation of meanness.
From the automobile for our
-fourteen billions we get national
health, saving of time, much pleas-
■oire, millions of families united.
At fourteen billions a year the
autoTpo^ila is a bargain.
If you haven’t got yours vet, get
it NOW, with the opening of
Spring, j
To use public moneys for the
comfort of the prosperous class is
“sound conservatism.” To use it
for the unprosperous class, their
wives and children, is SOCIALISM..
We .-pend thousands on . a fine
bridle path in a great park, sup
plying soft footing for the horses
or the well-to-do, that’s WELL.
