Its present officers began as employees of the Company. It was the first company to pay a minimum wage, beginning in 1914, at the then astounding figure of $5 a day. That was double the prevailing wage of the time. The Ford minimum is now £6 a day for all employees engaged in pro duction work. And from that, the wages rise to $10.80 a day, with the average wage $7.25, exclusive of salaried employees. The Ford Motor Com pany was the first large company to establish the 8-hour day—also in 1914. And die 40-hour week was inaugurated by the Ford Motor Company in 1926, years before any such laws existed. -IXI- Catholic Information the aromatics.

It is common knowledge that working conditions in the Ford shops are the best that science and constant care can make them. A square deal, a just wage and stabilized employment for a large proportion of our employees — and as fully stabi lized for all as conditions will permit — enable our men to retain their personal independence. In consequence of these policies the Ford Motor Company has one of the finest bodies of employees in the world. The larger proportion are mature men of long Henry Ford and Edsel Ford keep daily per sonal touch with all phases of Ford manu facture. In a conference with his staff, Henry Ford often says: "Go ahead—Nl sit here and represent the public** service with die Company—sober, decent family men. Hundreds of them have been with the Company for more than 25 years — thousands for more than 15 years. Their health record, home owner ship and citizenship records are good. Akll this is reflected in Ford products, whether cars, trucks or tractors. The work is honesdy done. Materials are the best that can be made or procured. Less profit to the Company and more value to the customer is known throughout the motoring world as "Ford’s way of doing busmess.** Ford Motor Company was the first to make a motor car within the means of the average family—quitting the manufacture of what was then the largest selling model in the world to do so. Its chosen field in all the 30 years since that time has been the average American family —for which it has consistendy provided car facilities which formerly only the wealthy could buy. It is the policy of the Ford Motor Com pany to share the benefits of advanced methods and management with workers and public alike. Increased wages and employment over a period of many years have resulted in A 300 per cent increase in the built-in value of the Ford car and at 75 per cent reduction in its price. ers, FSA supervisors, etc. x COKER FRENCH CLUB WINS AWARD FORD MOTOR COMPANY FOR CLERK OF COURT I announce my candidacy for re-nomination and election as r ’lerk of Court and Register of Mesne Conveyances for McCor mick County, abiding the rules and regulations of the Democratic party.

How often have you read of the Catholic priest at home and in foreign lands, sticking to his post through war and, rebellion through fire and flood, through famine and plague—rushing into the worst dangers and staying there till his work has been done or his life taken. Courage? Yes, but more than that—an undivided al legiance to his duty and to his God. Is a celibate priesthood practical? Who can deny it when the real test comes? Is clerical celibacy historical? Did Christ command it? No, but He himself practiced it and ad vised it when He told the rich young man that to be perfect he must leave all things and follow Him. St. Peter, ’tis true, was a married man, but at the time that Christ called him either his wife was dead or he had left her to fol low his Master. All the other Apostles so far as the Bible shows, were unmarried. St. Paul, the ^reat celibate, advised in no un certain terms the state of celibacy for those who were called. The early Fathers gave the same ad vice and from the earliest, days celibacy was willingly practiced by most of the clergy. At the time of Leo the Great (440-461) the law of priestly celibacy was made obligatory throughout the Western Church. Detailed information on priestly celibacy or on any other Catholic subject will be gladly furnished on request. Address: Catholic Club, Father Spiesman, Director, P. O. Box 407, Anderson, S. C.

Of the 138,000 trees planted by forward-looking landowners in the county, 136,000 were loblolly pine and 2,000 were black locust. Gen erally, the trees were planted at the rate of one thousand to the acre, and were spaced at intervals of six feet by eight feet. All of these tree seedlings were planted on lands which were not fit for growing farm crops or which could not be utilized for pasturage. Thousands of acres of this type of land, including seri ously cut over woodland, wornout and eroded farmlands, as well as potential forest land support ng only a growth of some undesirr re species such as scrub oak, exki i the county.
