PERNAMENT '
(Continued from page one)
Supervisor and County Commission
ers are instructed to have regard for
distribution of money; the County
Supervisor is required to publish a
statement of days worked by the
gangs and the county chaingang.
This Section provides: “That all laws
for the improvement of roads, bridges,
and ferries in Newberry County shall
remain in full force except insofar as
they may be modified by the provis
ions of this Section.”
It would seem to the Court that the
authority given in this section to the
three members of the board is the
same, that one has just as much au
thority as the others. The respond
ent rests his case on the County Sup
ply Acts of 1985 and 1936. These
Acts, no doubt, give the County Sup
ervisor exclusive right to hire and
discharge the labor of the county. It
does not appear that he-had this po
wer before the Supply Act of 1935;
and it does not appear that he has
, had this power since the Supply Act
of 1937. The County Supply Acts of
I 1937, 1938, and 1939 contain the
usual repealing clauses, that is, “All
, Acts or parts of Acts inconsistent
| with this Act are hereby repealed.”
! It is my opinion, theerfore, that
j after the Act of 1936 the County Su-
! pervisor has had no authority to hire
j and discharge the labor of the coun
ty any more so than one of the coun-
J ty commissioners. At most, a Coun-
I ty Supply Act is a temporary act
and is intended only for the fiscal
year for which the Act is passed.
! But the repealing clauses in the Co»m-
; ty Supply Acts of each succeeding
year beginning with 1937 I fail to
see how the powers given the Super
visor in the Acts of 1935 and 1936 to
hire and discharge the labor of the
County is operative as a permanent
Act. There is nothing said in Sec
tion 4653 as to the power to dis
charge the employees under that
section and we follow the general choose .the particular classes they are

School of Retailing
At Early Date
A school of retailing, arranged by
the Chamber of Commerce, in which
varied courses will be offered for
store clerks, managers, and owners,
will be held in the city beginning
Monday.
The school is being sponsored by
the state department of education.
Speaking to a group of representa
tive citizens Tuesday morning at the
Chamber of Commerce office, C. J.
King of -Columbia, assistant superin
tendent of distributive education of
the state department, presented the
purpose and aims of the school. Mr.
King was accompanied by M. C.
Smith, who will be the guest teacher
of the retail school.
A meeting of all merchants of the
city has been called for Thursday
evening at the Chamber office at eight
o’clock. At this time a tentative
schedule of hours and classes will be
presented. The schedule is being
planned by Mr. King, Mr. Smith, Hal
Kohn, chamber president; J. N. Beard,
•president of the merchants committee
of the chamber; and Ted Bremer,
chamber secretary.

visor of Newberry County does not
have the exclusive right under the
law to hire and discharge the employ
ees of the County organized and
working under Section .4653 of the
Code and that his power is only con
current with the powers of the two
county commissioners. As a matter
of law, I do not think that one of the
Commissioners could undo what the
Board had done. We find from the
minutes of March 13, 1939, that all
of the Board were present and par
ticipated in the selection of the men
on the maintenance forces. From the
minutes of August 14, 1939, at which
meeting all the members of the Board
were present, it is seen that claims
for maintenance and chaingang were
approved and ordered paid, with the
lish, personality development, sugges
tive selling, telephone selling, inter
ior decorating, store and department
arrangement, store and department
operation, window dressing, merch
andising, and advertising.

in itself seems somewhat significant
to the Court. There seems that there
might be some connection between the
discharge 0 f these three men and the
discharge of the whole maintenance
force, in view of the fact, too, that
the petitioners charge in their reply
that their refusal to pay the three
men was really the cause for the sus
pension of the maintenance force.
This fact, in my mind, detracts from
the reasons as offered in the affirm

MISS -CHAPPELL HONORED
WITH LINGERIE SHOWER
One of the most delightful parties
which have honored Miss Helen
Chappell whose marriage to Lewis
Waddell takes place Sunday was the
lingerie shower Friday evening giv
en by Mrs. Robert O’Dell at her
home on O’Neall street.
Lovely early fall flowers, with ro
ses predominating, created the floral
setting in the reception and dining
rooms where tables were arranged
for the guests to play Chinese Check
ers.
The place of the lionoree at the
tables was designated with a minia
ture bride and groom and a huge
white bow of tulle. Tallies were of
bridal design.
After several checker games the
high score prize was awarded Miss
Lillian Jones and the low went to
Miss Lera Duncan. Both winners
presented their awards to the bride-
elect.
The hostess brought into the recep-
| tion room a huge box attractively
! covered with whit > crepe paper and
adorned with wedding bells. It con
tained many lovely lingerie gifts for
Miss Chappell.
Later in the evening the hostess,
! assisted by Mrs. Jimmie Lindsay ser-
l ved a salad course and iced tea.
