SHOCK TOO GREAT
We are indebted to an unknown
subscriber for the following contri
bution, via postcard:
WE ALWAYS wcndered why
editors sometimes die. The Ya
zoo City Sentinel explains it,
“Death is frequent among news
paper eidtors,” says the Sentinel,
“but fully ninety per cent of those
that do occur have their founda
tion in the fact that a subscriber
came in and offered a word of
approval for something the editor
printed. The shock proved too
much and brought on complica
tions.”
FRIDAY IS LAST DAY
Those wishing to become candi
dates must file with the secretary or
chairman not later than Friday, Sep
tember 15. Entries may be filed at
the law office of Oliver Havird at any
time until the 15th.

'One-Armed Bandits'
Fall In Week-End Raid
The sheriff’s force and Magistrate’s
Deputy Rufus Livingstone, aided by
four constables from the Governor’s
constabulary canducted a wide-spread
raid of business places here Satur
day afternoon about 6 o’clock and
confiscated 20 slot machines, all of
the automatic pay-off type.
The officers worked in three squads
and used three trucks in bringing the
machines to the court house where
they were wrecked and later burned.
The raid netted about $70 in nickles
and pennies, which will be turned
over to the county treasurer.
All of the machines bore city li
cense tags. Some of the licenses ta
ken from the machines by deputies
bore the name of Harry Ponlus (or
Ponlos). Others were said to have
been owned by local men. About
half of the machines were taken
through search warrants. It is
thought that at least 50 slot machines
were operating in the city and on the
outskirts, but word of the raid
reached some of the places before the
raiding officers, and the machines were
hidden.
All places in which machines were
taken will be subjected to a fine,
probably of $11.

Described by Lawrence B. Gardiner,
Southern field representative of the
American Jersey Cattle club, as one
of the most successful state sales of
the country for 1939, the South Car

sale of purebred Jersey cattle held
here Monday w ?nt for an avrage of
$145.86.
This sale was the eighth sponsor
ed by the South Carolina club since
its organizatior. in 1922 and was
conceded the most successful. It
came after a lapse of several years
in offerings by the cooperative group
of breeders and the type and popu
larity of the breeding represented by
animals in the sale was a striking
demonstration of the progress made
by breeders in recent years, it was
said by officials at the ring side. The
offering included 9 mature cows, 2
five year olds, 2 four year olds, 8
three year olds, 6 eighteen months
of age, 8 heifer cows, and 4 bulls
The bulls, all young, averaged $91.25
and the females $152.90.
Mr. George F. Claussdh, of Augus
ta, Ga., was the heavy buyer who
also tok the top cow, Design Pris- 1
cilia Cassie, an outstanding three
year old at $320.00. This cow was
consigned by the well known breed
ing establishment owned by Wheeler
Brothers, Saluda. This cow is sired
by Souvenir Beauty’s Design which
formerly headed the Wheeler herd
and now heads one of the nation’s
better known breeding establishmepts,
the Shelby County Penal Farm, Mem

Smith Talks Of The
New Offerings
One man whose knowledge of what
new automobiles a lot of motorists
will drive for 1940 is up to the min
ute, first-hand and authentic, is Bill
Smith, owner of Smith Motor com
pany.
Mr. Smith has just returned from
Greensboro, N. C., where he partici
pated in a field conference called by
sales officials of the Dodge division
of Chrysler Motor Corporation and
attended by a large number of deal
ers and dealers’ sales and service ex
ecutives. '
“The meeting had several import
ant purposes,” Mr. Smith reports.
“First there were interesting reviews
of the wide public acceptance of the
1939 Dodge models. These reviews
were followed by discussions of sales
and service plans for 1940 and by pre
sentations of advertising, sales pro
motion and new-model demonstration
procedures designed to acquaint the
oublic with the unusual attractions
of the 1940 Dodge models,
“I was greatly impressed,” Mr,
Smith said on his return, “by reports
read at the meeting, of large num
bers of orders for 1940 Dodge ears
that were being placed not only by
the dealers, but by customers who
have still to see the new cars for
which they have already signed up.
I rega: d this action on the part of so
many motorists a significant tribute
to the manufacturers and as a sign
that augurs well for our future.”
“Naturally, the most interesting
part of the meeting,” Mr. Smith ad
mits, “was the dealers’ preview of
1940 Dodge passenger cars, factory
samples of which had been specially
shipped to the conference. Though
the cars impressed the dealers who
saw them, by their obvious, eye-fill
ing beauty, no public statement of
mechanical changes and innovations
is authorized just yet. These de
tails will be revealed at ‘announce
ment time,’ when the whole story of
the new Dodge will be told to the
public.”

DOWN MEMORY
LANE
20 YEARS AGO
A wedding of simplicity and mark
ed interest to their friends was that
of Miss Cleone Hayes, the second
daughter of Mr. and Mrs. E. Lee
Hayes of this county, to Mr. Charles
E. Cheatham of Greenville. The ef
fective ring ceremony was performed
by the Rev. G. F. Clarkson, the bride’s
pastor, at the bride’s home on Wed
nesday afternoon, the third, at two
o’clock in the presence of relatives
and a few friends. Mr. Cheatham is
a prominent business man of Green
ville, and after September 14 the
couple will be at home in Greenville.
At the home of Mr. and Mrs. Wil
liam F. Ewart on Wednesday, Sep
tember 3, at 9 o’clock, Miss Cora
Ewart, the bright young daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. Ewart, became the
bride of Mr. Walter Douglas Horns
by, the only son of Mr. and Mrs. W.
W. Hornsby. Only a few intimate
friends and immediate members of
the two families were present. The
pastor of the bride, the Rev. E. D.
Kerr of the Presbyterian church,
spoke the words which made them
roan and wife. Mr. Ewart gave his
daughter away and she was attend
ed by Miss Hulda Longshore, a
school and childhood friend. Mr.
Hornsby was attended by Mr. Ned
Purcell as best man.
Several weeks ago Adjutant Gen
eral Jarmes C. Dozier came to New
berry and met with a group of in
terested citizens and the board of
directors oof the Chamber of Com
merce. At this meeting, General
Dozier asked that he be released
from his promise to give Newberry
a military band and if this release
were given, he would give Newber
ry a larger unit. Later President
Hal Kohn called together the mem
bers of the Greenwood and Union
bands who reside in Newberry county
and he and Representative Tom Pope
discussed this matter with the band
members. After a very frank dis
cussion, the band members voted to
release the Adjutant Gneral from his
promise of a band for Newberry.
They appointed a commiteee to go
before the Adjutant General and
make a request for a Coast Artillery
Unit for Newberry in lieu of the
band, *
On Tuesday, this committee, con
sisting of Mayor John Earhardt,
Representative Pope, Jackson Bow
ers, who was representing Legion
Post Commandant S. C. Paysinger,
Tommie Mims and President Kohn
went to Columbia for a conference
with General Dozier and as a result
of this meeting with the Adjutant
General, the committee can now def
initely assure Newberry that we
will have the next unit coming to
S. C. consisting of 66 men and three
officers, formed in Newberry not la

will be in the 263rd Coast Artillery

Drayton Luther Hamm, 83, well-
known retired farmer, died early
Wednesday morning at his home in
Silverstreet after a long illness.
Mr. Hamm was married twice,
first to Miss Frances Hawkins, who
preceded him to the grave many
years ago. From this union the fol
lowing sons and daughters survive:
Ernest Hamm of Prosperity, B. A.
Hamm of Silverstreet, B. H. Hamm
and Mrs. G. C. Blair of the city.
His second wife, who survives him
was Miss Nancy Long. From this
union the following sons and daugh
ters survive: G. J. Hamm, of Phila
delphia; T. B. Hamm, Atlantic City;
Miss Rose Hamm, Miss Pearle
Hamm, and D. L. Hamm, Jr., all of
Silverstreet; the Rev. L. Boyd Hamm
of Kings Mountain, N. C.; Mrs. W.
R. McAlroy of Asheboro, N. C.; J.
H. Hamm and R. L. Hamm, both of
Charlotte, N. C,
The funeral services are being
held this (Thursday) afternoon at
the Silverstreet Lutheran church
with the Rev. D. L. Heglar ii>
charge, assisted by the Rev. Virgil
Long. Burial will be in the church
cemetery.
City council is hauling gravel in
College street preparatory to making
a cement sidewalk around the Central
Methodist church lot and also for
paving the sidewalk on the west side
of College street from Friend to
Main.
While In Columbia, this committee
had a conference with the Chief Hi-
way Department Engineer, Mr. J. S.
Williamson, and were promised con
sideration in the Chamber of Com
merce request that the Highway De
partment widen C-liege street for a
distance of one mile from the college
property out towards Plampin’s fill
ing station. This widening will also
make possible a paved sidewalk for
pedestrians to walk on and will
greatly benefit in appearance & safe
ty this main entrance to Newberry.
This one mile “sample” will be used
as a demonstration to show how
much improvement follows this wid
ening. If property owners on the
four main highways into the city
like this development, the Chamber
of Commerce and the city will do
everything possible to get the high
way department to do more of this
work. The public will be pleased to
know that it will not cost the city or
county a penny for this improve
ment.
Another request which this com
mittee made to the Chief Engineer
was that the highway from Winns-
boro to Greenwood, which runs thro
Newberry, be routed down Mhin
street to Stokes Drug store and from
there turn left on McKibben to
Boundary. If the Highway Depart
ment grants this request, which they
seemed to look with favor on, it
will mean that the city of Newberry
will have this section surface treat
ed with no cost whatever to the
property owners of the city.
Thanks to County Fair directors
for their cooperation. In this sea
son when summer storms occur the
CGC camps are required to arrange
for shelter in case anything happens
to their camp. This is a precaution
ary measure, seldom taken advant
age of. President Jim Johnson and
his directors very graciously have
placed the County Fair grounds and
buildings at the disposal of Camp 6
in case they need temporary shelter.
Mr. Ted. W. Bremer, who was re
cently elected secretary of the or
ganization, will assume office on Oc
tober 1. A little later, we will give
the public more information about
our new secretary.
The officers and directors appreci
ate very much the attitude of the
public at this time, which has made
possible so many accomplishments.
