FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, 1938 THE SUN PAGE FIVE SOCIETY NE WS Chit-Chat By CONSTANCE ARMFIELD The opening of Newberry College always brings a real thrill to the city and this year so many more students Aiken"'of ^08,^0®.,' is^the ^T^t to stop by Anderson en route and pick up McBeth Sprouse, who will also at tend Clemson. . .Dr. F. 0. Lamoreux is conducting revival services in Hartsville this week. . .Mrs. James Clary of Allendale, the fomer Dot Bryson, is visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs. H. M. Bryson on McCaugh- rin avenue. . .Mrs. Walter Baldwin of Grey Court is visiting relatives in the city this week. . .Miss Louise are coming than ever before. It’s satisfying to the eye to see things buzzing over on College Hill again and needless to say. Main street is much more active. The freshman class has an unusually large number enrolled this year. That accounts for all the strange people about town. These first year students arrived either Monday afternoon or Tuesday mom ing of this week for a two-day pro gram before the formal opening which was held in Holland Hall this (Thurs day) morning. New Life The city takes on new life with the first month of autumn. September means not only the beginning of our schools and colleges, but a new swing in social life. After summer vaca tioning, the various women’s clubs of the city begin meetings anew. Those groups who have already held first sessions include the Legion Auxiliary, the Calendar Society, the D. A. R, and the Calvin Crozier group of the U. D. C. Tomorrow (Friday) the first meeting of the Mothers’ Club will be held. The pre-school group of mothers will meet at four o’clock at the home of Mrs. C. A. Calcote on Calhoun street. Mrs. Steve Griffith has been named associate hostess. Interesting Meeting About 20 members of the Jasper Chapter. D. A. R., were present at the first fall meeting last Friday after noon at the home of Mrs. Dave Cald well on Jones street. Miss Grace Summer, newly elected regent of the chapter, presided. C. E. Hendrix, county superintendent of education was the main speaker of the after noon. His address was on the Con stitution. After a brief business session, a social hour was enjoyed and the hostess served light refresh ments. It’s a Girl The newest of the city’s newcomers is the baby daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Joe Keitt, who made her arrival at the county hospital Wednesday morn ing about 10:30. As yet, the little daughter has not been named. Mrs. Keitt is the former Miss Margaret Kinard. The Keiths have one other child, a daughter, Margaret Land, who is two years old.

HUM- Com- THE MASTER BOOK OF OROUS ILLUSTRATIONS, piled by Leewin B. Williams. Cokes- bury press, Neshville, Tennessee, 431 Pages, Price $2.00 No. 1342, page 352, we read: “A very High Church missionary—a good and devout soul—was sent out to the Adirondacks, where most of the peo ple had grown up Baptists. An old man of that persuasion died and his family wanted him buried from the church. , The missionary, uncertain whether he might use the church for an unconfirmed sectarian telegraph ed to the bishop, asking what he should do. Back came the cordial answer, ‘Bury all Baptists possible.’ ” Such is one of the 1620 stories taken at random. Those who want mirth, a grin, a snicker, a smile, and real wholesome merriment will elicit laughter from just this type of book; and those who want to repress it, pro voke it, split with it, raise it, and reel in it will be reading this book that a- bounds with the essence and attri butes and characteristics and nature of imparted humor of the refined type. There is back-alley-cat litera ture elsewhere but not in the volume under discussion; here is the spice of discernment, the wit of refinement for conversation and public address. Public speakers will welcome the vol ume, especially (those who preside at banquets and know the art of being the toastmaster. Added to 1620 humorous stories are over four hun dred pointed epigrams that sting as well as charm, that satirize as well as express piercing facts. “It is no use to be fervent in spirit if you are not Beginning right away, plans will be I fa ‘r in business” is a random epigram made for another Community Christ mas tree—the annual custom of New- berrians that benefits so many under privileged boys and girls of our coun ty. Mrs. William Hunter will be in charge of the Tree this year . . Av- eleigh Presbyterian Church will be the scene of a large gathering of Presbyterian women from Newberry and Laurens counties tomorrow. A full day’s program will be held at the church and over 100 are expected to attend . . . For another two years, all will be quiet on the political front. It was a real experience to be able to vote in this year’s com bat and pretty lucky for. those of us who get all hot under the collar about elections, that these events happen only once every two years.

The Newberry College Indians are hard at work but with things tom up as work progresses on the new athletic setup, Coach Laval and his boys are hard put for a practice space large enough to line off where some plays can be run in regular scrim mage. Thirty-eight men are on hand and new plays are on top, so it will take some time for much teamwork to show up but Coach Laval is pleased to date and when Bill says that, then that’s lot. The season opens on the 16th as the Indians journey to play Roanoke, but fans here are interested in the game on the 23rd when Newberry meets Emory and Henry under the lights on Setzler Field in the first night game in Newberry. Local fans will also have a chance then to see a Laval coached Newberry team in action. Some five thousand fans from over the state, including local fans, are expected to tax the capacity of the new field when the whistle blows for this game that will send New berry against Laval’s last season’s team. Newberry looks to be stronger than in years and fans are behind the In dians who at last seem headed places athlectically. Only six letter men are on hand, but in the other thirty-two there is plenty of power and playing ability, and it will be days yet before any idea of who will get opening assign ments, but you can bet that Laval will have the best possible line-up as he faces his old team. found on page 121. One of the real fine arts of personality is the ability to see humor in the common things of life without defaulting in real self hood, without defaming the pure in mind and without alluding to the ob scene. On these lines stands the at tractiveness of this book. MEN OF POWER, VOLUME II. By Fred Eastman. Cokesbury Press, Nashville, Tennessee. 186 pages. Volume I, which we have comment ed on before in this column, tells the story of Thomas Jefferson, Charles Dickens, Matthew Arnold, and Louis Pastuer. Volume II, just off the press with release date of September 1, 1938, deals with the biography of Francis of Assisi, Oliver Cromwell, John Milton, and Leonardo da Vinci. The author is an expert in his field; he is professor of biology, literature, and drama in the Chicago Theoligical Seminary. Francis of Assisi, 1182-1226, a man of strong convictions, without really thought-out philosoply of life in any chilly program, lived gloriously his life of poverty, humility, love, and joy over against wealth and pride, hatred and fear. All his views center around his thoughts of God and his fellow creatures. Leonardo da Vinci, 1452-1519, an illegitimate son, climbed the heights of the greatest men of all time, ac cording to this author profoundly con tributing as mathematician, military engineer, civil engineer, geographer, astronomer, anatomist, botanist, che mist. His own ideas of his failures in life are interestingly dealt with by the author, particularly his paint ings, his sculptures, his competitions with Michelangelo, and his utter sens e of loneliness. Cromwell, 1599-1658, was a man of contrasts, a representative of proud men who trust in force, a follower of Joshua, Saul, David, and Jehu. He knew th e Bible and in the end the kindgom he established, filled his heart with grief. John Milton, 1608-1674, the inde pendent thinker, is heralded as one who will trust God for the future rather than as an hundred percent Puritan. His singing soul went forth to battle with tyrants and to justify the ways of God to men. These volumes give in brief com pass the essential facts that deter mine today the greatness of these characters. Each volume is unique, is beautifully bound, and is worthy to occupy space on the bookshelf of the cultured. FREE SWIMMING LESSONS AT MUNICIPAL POOL The management of the Margaret Hunter pool informs the public that the pool is open all day until 10 o’clock at night.
