SELFISH MEN Let’s see now. When Mr. Roose velt was in Gainsville, Ga., a few weeks back he said the prosperity of the country was being held back by a few selfish men. Last week he asked the congress for 6,000 million dollars to bring back prosperity. Think of what the cost would be if the country had a couple of hund red of the type of men the presi dent berated at Gainsville. IDEAL MAN T. L. Hill, president; R. M. Lomi- nack, vice-president; B.

Carson, J. F. Clarkson, Mrs. H. M. Bryson, T. P. Johnson and E. T. Carson. We see where the gals in a West enr university have agreed upon a pattern for a “super-perfect” man. Briefly, such a specimen would be able to “wrinkle his forhead like Clark Gable, has a mouth like Ro bert Taylor, the suave sopphistica tion of William Powell and the viri lity of Spencer Tracy.” It seems as though the gals don’t mind if he is ignorant and trifling, which would appear to indicate that they do not place a very high value on the things they are sent to school to acquire. They seem to prefer a glorified louge lizzard. PROGRESS An admiral suggests that the U S. construct three 45,000 ton battle- •hops. Modern battleships cost $2, 000 a ton, or $90,000,000 each. Japan is fixing to build some as large—and mount 18-inch guns on them. Civilzation is certainly moving at a rapid clip—right back to the jun gle, where the whim of the wolf is the law of the pack. It’s things like this that make us wonder if what we call civilization, with all its folly, cruelty and sham is worth saving. It’s a senseless, barbarous civilization (could there be such a civilization ?) to say the least. HE TURNED THIEF On the front page of the Bir mingham Age Herald some days ago we saw a picture that haunts us. It showed Richard Whitney, former head of the New York stock exchange and given from five to ten years in Sing Sing for larceny of securities entrusted to him, on ms way to prl- son shackled to two convicts. “Whitney,” said the reader under the picture, “showed no emotion " No wonder. He was probably too numbed by this tragedy to register any emotion. Whitney for many years was a top flight business man and social leader in New York. The position he filled on the exchange for so many years was thought to require a man of innate honesty and great business acumen. Ordinarily, one would find in men in such stations many other qualities that make them superior to Die average run of men. But Whitney, it seems, lacked these qualities. Stress revealed him as a thief, and so they took him away to prison manacled to two felons. The picture disturbs us because it causes us to question the motives and integrity of many men whom we trust implicitly. We wonder if they too, faced with the dilemma that faced Whitney would steal something entrusted to them. We wonder if in the most virtuous of us there is a conquering integrity—an unyielding honesty. Again that picture flashes into our mind like a meteor across the heavens—and again we wonder.

How to rule death off the hiways is a vital problem confronting every community in the United States. Realizing this, local clubs and civic organizations have offered their ser vices as co-sponsors of the Drive Safely Crusade being conducted by the C. D. Coleman Company and its dealers. The following organizations have wholeheartedly offered their support in the drive to save lives, prevent ac cidents, and avoid injuries in this area: The Civic League Chamber of Commerce Mayor of Newberry The Blue Ridge Council, Boy Scouts of America Sheriff’s office Members of these organizations are being asked to fully acquaint themselves with the Drive Safely Crusade, to sign the Drive Safely Pledge, and to get his friends to sign it. In this way every citizen can do his part to promote th e cause of safe driving for, in the final analysis, safety depends upon each individual driver. The Drive Safely Pledge sets down no hard and fast rule but mere ly pledges motorists to apply the Golden Rule to driving, to consider the rights of others, to observe state and local traffic regulations, and to apply the common sense rules of safe driving. This is a pledge which everyone can easily keep, a pledge which every good citizen will glad ly make. Motorists who sign this pledge will receive, free of charge and without any obligation, a handsome metal emblem for their car, reading “Pledg ed to Drive Safely.” Thus they will tell the world that they are going to do their part to prevent the appall ing number of accidents on our streets and highways. In a further effort to make motorists safety consious, monthly contests are being conducted which will award 75 prizes, totaling $1,000.00, to North and South Carolina motorists. The April contest is on drive safe ly slogans of ten words or less. The type of slogan desired is one that will make motorists think—a few words that will stick in their minds and influence them to be more care ful. Slogans are fun to write and in writing them you have a chance to do your part in promoting safety and to try for one of the large cash awards, Full detail* ©f th« current monthly contest, a* well as Drive Safely Pledge* and plates, are available without cost or obligation at all Pure Oil Service Stations- Since this is a state-wide drive, local offi cials, civic organizations and clubs, are anxious that Newberry make an outstanding record in pledges signed. SPUD NOT ALWAYS POPULAR The lowly spud had a hard time reaching its way to the world's din ner plate as will be seen from the following: “The first mention made of the po tato in European literature is to be found in the writings of a German botanist named Clusins, in 1588,” the clipping says, "Two had been sent him from Flanders and he made a plate of the ‘rare plant’ for his book. It was a hundred and fifty years after this that it began to be planted for food in Switzerland, Everywhere it met with the greatest opposition, just as all the benefactions of the world, either moral or physical always have. “Philanthropists strove to explain its advantages to the common peo* ple, but they were hooted at, if not stoned. Fields planted with them had to be carefully watched at night, or all the plants would be de stroyed. This antipathy is very singular, when we remember what a narrow range of food the poorer people had at that time. “The people of Ireland fought very ham against its introduction among them, whereas now it is so much their mainstay that their country has given it its name. And yet, when we are told how pota toes were first prepared for the table, it is to be wondered that they ever did become popular. “One writer speaks of the potato as ‘a vegetable much like a Jerusa lem artichoke, but not as good or wholesome,’ and that they were to be roasted and sliced and eaten with a sauce of wine and sugar. And we can imagine what an unenviable ar ticle of food it was in its primitive days, when we reflect that it was fifty years ago, and contrast that with now,” REPORT ACCUSES WPA ST. PHILIPS ITEMS I am sure everybody was pleased with the first sermon by our new pastor. He spoke on an interesting subject—Peter Denying Christ. Why did Peter deny Christ? Because his time had not yet come and they would have crucified him. SPECIAL STAMP ISSUED TO C0MEM0RATE AIR MAIL WEEK The beautiful flowers are bloom ing before May. It is said that the April showers bring forth the flow ers and the May stops the way. The month of May is the most beautiful time of year. You can see and smell the beauty of the flowers. Some of our farmers have a mighty good stand of cotton but the cold is against it. It is reported that there was frost again that hurt a few things. We regret to hear of Miss Lot- tye Halfacre having to go to Green ville hospital to be treated for her eyes and her many friends wish her well. We also regret to learn that Mr. David Stone is critically ill in the Newberry hospital with double pneumonia. His many friends are looking forward to his recovery. Mr. W. B. Kinard is doing as well could be expected. He has not been out of the house for several weeks. NOTICE TO CREDITORS AND OF FINAL SETTLEMENT The undersigned, executrix of the Last Will and Testament of L. D. Morris, deceased, will make final set tlement of said estate in the Probate Court for Newberry County, S. C., on Saturday, May 14th, 1938, at 10:00 o’clock in the forenoon, and will im mediately thereafter ask for my dis charge as executrix of said estate. All persons having claims against the estate of L. D. Morris, deceased, ar e hearby notified to file the same, duly verified, with the undersigned, or with my attorneys Blease & Grif fith, Newberry, S. C., and those in debted to said estate will please make payment likewise. MRS. ALICE E. MORRIS Executrix of the Last Will and Testament of L. D. Morris, d-e pao g April 14th, 1938. Greenville, S. C., April 6—A distinc tive two. color air mail stamp will be issued by the United States Post Office Department as a special recog nition of National Air Mail Week, May 15 to 21, which will be the greatest effort in the history of this service to increase its effective ness and popular support. An announcement today at Na tional Air Mail Week state head quarters here by State Chairman Dixon D. Davis said this stamp will be symbolic of the Air Mail and s.'iould be highly desirable for the many thousands of collectors who will send and receive letters on the special flights that week. Chairman Davis said he has been informed by Postmaster General Farley that this stamp will be of six-cent denomination, the same size as the conunemorative issues. The border, of’ distinctive Air Mail design, will be printed in blue and the central design will be in red. This design will depict an eagle with outstretched wings, bearing in its talons a shield, olive wreath and a bundle of arrows. Numerous ornamental details have been includ ed in the over-all design. This stamp first will be placed on sale May 14, at Dayton, Ohio, which is the home of the Wright Brothers, who built the first successful air plane, and at St. Petersburg, Flori da, where the first passenger flight was made. On the following days of Air Mail Week, this stamp will be on sale at many thousands of Post Offices throughout the United States. “The National Air Mail Committee regards as particularly thoughtful the cooperation that the the State Chairman said, these spe cial routes for the “pick-up service” that day will present a great objec tive for th e further expansion of the net-work of regular lines. “It is not unreasonable to expect that in the course of a relatively few years regular flight will he made over many of these pick-up routes, thus giving to a much greater part of the Nation’s population the num erous benefits of the Air Mail,” he said. SMYRNA CLUB MEETS Postmaster General and the Depart- >f this TAX NOTICE Washington, April 84.—The Works progress administration was accused today of spending $186,000 on two pamphlets, a set of phonograph re cords and a couple of reels of movie film to publicize the works program. A minority report of the senate un employment committee said Admini strator Hopkins, during hearing hod defended the expenditures maintaining “it was proper for the infor government to impart information to its citizens.” Asserting the money would have provided year-round Jobs for 232 un employed, the report said; “There seems to be only one word for this action and that is—waste”.

BROOKS, Treasurer Newberry County. ment are giving by the issue ol new stamp,” said Chairman Davis. “While the Air Mail Service is es sentially a practical activity for the benefit of oar nation’s business and society, ther e remains a certain romance and sentiment in this ser vice, just as there is at once senti ment and practical purpose in our National defense activities. Of course, the realization is general throughout the country that avia tion is essential to our national de fense, but . it also is true that the still further development of peace time Air Mail Service will increase our national solidarity and safety.” The National Air Mail Week chairman pointed out that hundreds of privately-owned airplanes will take to the air, piloted by their owners, on May 19 to provide a spe cial pick-up Air Mail Service which will extend into a great number of communities which now are remote from the regular transcontinental air mail lines. He reported that the private fliers are cooperating with enthusiasm in the preparations for these special flights. “This will be a contribution of their time and ser vice to the Air Mail Week program and by this cooperation, which will provide one of the outstanding features of the week, the aviators are showing an admirable spirit of loyalty not only to the Post Office Department but also to the great cause of aviaticgi progress,” said Chairman Davis. H e explained that these special flights, over routes that are being mapped by the State Chairman in each of the 48 states, will demon strate the speed and efficiency of the Air Mail in “a most impressive manner ta communities far distant from the regular routes." Also, (Written for last week) The home demonstration club held its regular monthly meeting April 15, with Mrs. A. A. Cleland. Thir teen members were present.
