Record Keeping Is
Being Complicated
Not Necessary for Employees to Get
New Numbers When They
Change Jobs.
Social Security record keeping is
being complicated 1 because many em
ployees and some employers have the
idea that a new number is necessary
every time an employee changes jobs,
Postmaster R. A. Deason declared re
cently.
“One number is all any employee
will ever need,” Mr. Deason said.
“When a worker takes a new job,
all in the world he needs to do is to
tell the new employer the number on
the original registration card. When
new employees are hired, employers
can be of material assistance if they
will require if the applicant has or
has had a number. If he has, nothing
need! be done except enter that num
ber on the payroll. If the applicant
has no ..umber, he should be given a
blank application and required to fill
it out and either mail it or take it to
the post office. He will be issued a
card and number and one number is
all that he will ever need, even though
he has a new job every week and wan
ders from coast to coast. This is true
even though a person is working for
a half dozen employers at the same
time. There is no possible circum
stance undbr which more than one
number is necessary.”
Mr. Deason also urged all workers,
who have not already done so, to ap
ply immediately to their employer or
the nearest post office and fill out the
application form SS-5 for account
number.

CLEM SON COLLEGE FORTY
YEARS BEHIND THE TIMES
About 40 years ago, soon after
Clemson College was founcted after
textile plant was built and a textile
course started at Clemson to train
young men to become leaders in the
textile industry. Since that time
thousands of young men have taken
this training at Clemson and hundreds
of these have come to be leaders in
the textile industry, having risen in
many cases from the humblest places.
However, in these 40 years al
though South Carolina has risen to
first place tn all the States for the
number of active cotton spindles, the
equipment and facilities of the textile
department at Clemson remain about
like they were 40 years ago.
Although there were only a few
students at first, now there are about
300 textile students at Clemson and
no room to accommodate mre or even
to do the best by those who are there
now. Furthermore the college can
not fully supply the demand of the
industry today for competent, well
trained 1 young men.
There is at present a bill before the
State legislature authorizing Clemson
to borrow enough money to enlarge
its textile plant and bring itself up-
to-date and second to no school in
the United States. As a matter of
fact even with the limited equipment
Clemson has turned out men who stand
at the top in textile leadership.
A number of machinery manufac
turers are now offering Clmson com
plete new modem equipment for such
a building if a new and adequate one
can be secured. The present one is
too small and out of date to serve
the purpose.
It is evident that the more textile
manufacturing we get in the State
the more demand there will be for
our cotton, especially the finer types
fhat are now being grown. This
should help everybody, so we should
all work together |to develop our
textile industry.
Here are some important facts for
us to ponder:
The textile industry of South
Carolina leads all other States in
their cotton spindles.
The textile industry of South Caro
lina gives employment to some 90,000
people whose annual payroll is fifty-
five millions of dollars.
The textile industry of South Caro
lina pays annually approximately
four and one-half million dollars in
State, county and municipal taxes.
The textile industry of South Caro
lina pays approximately sixty per
cent, of the corporation taxes.
The textile industry of South Caro
lina pays approximately seventy-five
per cent, of the total corporation
State income tax.
This industry needs more technical
ly trained men in order to meet for
eign competition.
The Clemson Textile school has
some three hundred* textile students,
yet can meet only half of the calls
for trained men for the textile in
dustry.
The Clemson Textile school and
hence the State of South Carolina has
lost donations in equipment to the
value of some $60,000.00 on account
of inadequate space in its antiquated
textile building.
Let’s supply the building.—Con
tributed.
Child Health Day.
Gov. OHn D. Johnston has issued a
proclamation designating Saturday,
May 1st, as “Child Health Day” and
calls upon the citizens of the State
“to use this day for the earnest con
sideration of ways an j means of pro
tecting and promoting the health and
general welfare of the children of our
State.”

StiH-Seigler.
Mr. and Mrs. J. S. Still, of Barn
well, announce the marriage of their
daughter, Miss Evelyn Still to Mr.
Thompson Seigler, of Abbeville. The
wedding took place April 15th, at
the Baptist parsonage in Orangeburg,
the Rev. Welch performing the cere
mony.
The bride was beautifully gowned
in a navy blue ensemble suit with
white accessories, while the groom was
dressed in a suit of grey. Mrs. Bill
Jarrell and Mrs. Leon Beasley, of
Barnwell attended the wedding. Af
ter the ceremony the couple left for
Charleston and other points of inter
est. After their return Mr. and Mrs.
Seigler will make their home with the
bride’s parents. Mr. Seigler hold's a
prominent government position at the
local CCC camp. Their r^any friends
throughout South Carolina wish them
a long and happy life. **
K A crowd ectimated to be over four
hundred attended the square dance at
Fuller Park on Tuesday night of last
week. These dances are under the
supervision of T. D. Creighton, Sr.,
* • and are being “put on” every two
weeks. The dances are attended by

use POTASH to
it.
mn
Experiments and
practical field testa
have shown that pot
ash will increase the
yields of com enough
to make good profits
after paying for the
cost of the potash. In
addition to increasing
the yields, potash fills
out the ears and re
duces firing, root rot,
and lodging. Dr. H. P.
Cooper, Director of the
South Carolina Exper- »
iment Station, says
that much of the po- •
tentially good corn #
land in the eastern part "
of South Carolina has
become so deficient in
potash that corn is ■ NO POTASH
often almost a com
plete failure. Increase
your com yields this
yean: by top-dressing
with 100-200 pounds
per acre of a nitrogen-
potash fertilizer. Consult your county agent
or experiment station about the plant-food re
quirements of your soils. See your fertilizer dealer
or manufacturer regarding fertilizers high in pot
ash. You will be surprised how little it costs to
use more potash. Write us for fur
ther information and literature.
