L0MINACK HARDWARE Holly Ridge, N. C., Feb. 11.—This roadside village 30 miles jiorth of Wilmington is rapidly blossoming in to a fullfledged national defense boom town. Two months ago it was but a ham let of twenty-eight inhabitants. To day it is mushrooming into a city, for here Uncle Sam is building Camp Davis, an anti-aircraft firing center to cost $10,000,000 and house 20,000 soldiers. Early in December there was nothing to do in Holly Ridge but sit around the stove in Postmaster C. C. Hines’s general store. A visitor could see only a few houses and a filling station and store on one side of the railroad tracks and a tiny freight depot on the other. Nobody ever bothered to stop here save a few salesmen who sold stock for Hines’s store. Now things are different. Land which could be bought v>r a dollar an acre has skyrocketed, and real estate men are selling small lots described by a villager as “two collard rows 76 feet long’’ for $1,600 each. Thousands flock here daily to work and seek work. The state highway patrol has erected quarters for four patrolmen who are on twenty-four- hour duty. A clothing store, drug store, pool room, cafe, hardware store, real es tate office and myriad hot dlog and small lunclj stands have sprung up. A theater is under construction. Nearly 5,000 men are at work on the project, cutting streets and dig ging ditches. Temporary office buildings have been erected on the four-square-mile area, and ( perman ent buildings have been begun. The railroad company has added a depot and has installed telegraph facilities. The power company which serves Wilmington has built an 11,- 000-volt, three-phase temporary line to the camp site, bringing the first electric lights ever seen there. For the first time in its history, Holly Ridge has a parking problem. State patrolmen discourage parking on the shoulders of the highway, for it is one the the main routes of New York to Florida tourist travel; and as a result, parking places cannot be found within blocks of the center of the town. Men are working seven days a week, and some skilled labor has been put on a program of two ten hour shifts a day instead of three shifts of eight hours as at first.

Summer One of the richest ways to enjoy the history of the Jewish people is to become familiar with their legend ary history. One can obtain these charming stories at no great out lay per volume. The set of seven books sells for $15, or one can pur chase the volumes separately,but this way costs $2.00 more. The cultural world is indebted to The Jewish Pub lication of America, Philadelphia, for these legends that are intensely interesting to non-Jews ast well as to Jews. Volume .V., pp. xi-466, $3.00, is filled with notes clarifying the data given in Vols. I and II—•!., “From The Creation To Jacob,” and II, “From Joseph To The Exodus.” This does not mean that this parti cular volume will interest only the scholar; it does mean that it will interest anyperson interested in folk lore and especially comparative folk lore. This book will introduce the reader into the whole field of Semitic research and in addition open up much of early Christian literature. The volume enhances the value of the foregoing books, demonstrating more . completely the monumental work of Dr. Ginzburg in blazing this brilliant pathway into the various popular conceptions of the Jewish re ligion, theological anthropomor phisms and anthropopathisms, ts well as social ethics, culled from a vast literature, Mohammedan as well as Jewish and Christian. Father John Forest, Saint An thony’s Guild, is an untiring helper in giving me the best of Catholic lit erature for me to pass on as recom mendations for my Catholic friend’s an4 readers. “Sacerdos et Ponti- fex,” by Francis Clement Kelley con tains delightful letters to a Bishop. Note this, “Your whole life as a bish op will depend on what you make your master-thought.” Read what “Paul” writes to his old bishop and what the bishop has to say. “Little Reminders” close the book; they are gems of beauty and advice. “They Have Seen His Star,” by Valentine Long, are essays of charm and cul ture, in deep appreciation of such outstanding characters as Newman, Meynell, Belloc, Chesterton, and others. This book will appeal to the finest cultured mind as a work in the field of Catholic letters. They reach a high plane of thought. “Not on Bread Alone,” also by Valentine Long, is no lesser book, superb in verbal expression, striking a high spiritual level.a meliorist with a hap py leaning toward optimism, lifting the latch for human hearts to catch a vista of life and literature. It will satisfy many a human heart for days to come. Attention is called to a fine series of Catholic pamphlets, most of them by Isidore O’Brien, 5c- 10c., and each well done; their titles are: The Gospel Parables, in four folders,—God and Justice, Man’s True Friend, Our Moral Lifer and Understanding the Message of Christ; other titles are Sculpturing Truth, Our Father Who Art in Heav en, The Father’s Shadow, Christ the Physician, The Light of the Cross, The Shadow of the Cross, Brides of Christ. The church Our Mother, two on The Sacraments, Let Us Look at Life, St. Anthony of Padua, Consola tion, Hands, Soldiers of Christ, Res ignation, What it Means lo be a Ter tiary (by Conall O’Leary), Compen sation, and the Ten Commandments of Reason. Some of these have ad ditional subjects discussed. Many of these will interest readers of any faith. The last one is a real chal lenge to scepticism, agnosticism, and atheism. It alone is worth the price of all the rest, to say nothing of the real merit of each one for its pur pose. It is a vital discussion of the basis for the theistic position. All these can be purchased through St. Anthony’s Guild Press, Patterson, New Jersey. One dollar buys “Higley’s Sunday School Lesson Commentary for 1941” and can be ordered from the Higley Press, Butler, Ind. It is edited by R. D. Higley, A. E. Bloomfield, John Paul, and J. A. Huffman. The book has special introductions, introduc tions to each lesson, maps, object les sons, lesson illustrations, Bible read ings, exposition of the Golden Text, many practical applications, themes, questions, summaries, and is thor oughly orthodox. It is called “A 20- Featured Book.” Get your money’s worth. Higley Press also is alert in the field of visual art for the Sunday School, $1.50 per quarter, $5.00 per year. Visual Art is a series or ready made object lessons, always bringing up something new, original, and sur prising. It will command attention in an instant; no Sunday need be void of interest. Each separate en velope in unique, easily mastered, is Biblical, yet magic-like. camp site hums. Beneath huge flood lights the work goes on throughout the night. Much of the night-time work consists of unloading and dis tributing materials over the camp area. As the camp rises, residents watch it with amazement ar.) mixture of pleasure and Chagnn. Formerly the village was quiet. There never was any difficulty in sleeping. Nobody was in a hurry be cause there wasn’t ar /thing to do. But that is ended now. Conservation Material Available To Farmers The Agricultural Adiustment Ad ministration has just announced the availability of farm year delivery of limestone and the nearest railway head delivery of 20 per cent super phosphate as conservation material to producers of Newberry County un der the 1941 Agricultural Conserva tion program, according to County Agent P. B. Ezell. The 1941 deduc tion rate per ton on farm year de livery of lime will be $2.90. Rate of deduction for 20 per cent superphos phate delivered at the nearest rail way head in the county is $13.20 per ton in 100 pound bags. Limestone may also be obtained in carlot ship ments delivered at the nearest rail way head at $2.50 per ton. In addition to limestone and super phosphate being furnished county producers in 1941 by the Agricultur al Administration as grants of aid, there are also other arrangements available under the 1941 program whereby producers may elect to ob tain locally, terracing and seed as as sistance in carrying out conservation and soil-building practices through the “assignment provision” of the 1941 Agricultural Conservation Pro gram. This provision permits the as signing of 1941 Agricultural Conserv ation payments to secure the cost of the assistance obtained until pay ments are received in the county. The Newberry County Agricultural Board has arrangements whereby as signments may be made to pay for terracing. Local firms and individu als from time to time offer seed and legumes on assignments. 1941 orders for limestone, super phosphate and the filing of assign ments of the 1941 Agricultural Con servation payments are now being taken at the County Office. For detailed information relating to soil-building work and other mat ters pertaining to the 1941 Farm Program, it is suggested that the County Agent’s office, a member of the Newberry County Committee, or a member of the Newberry County Farm Program Comunity Committee be contacted. FIRST FROM S. C. SINCE DEATH OF JOHNSON IN 1831 IF NAMED Charleston, Feb. 11.—Jf Senator James F. Byrnes (D-S.C.) is ap pointed an associate justice of the United States supreme court, he would be the first South CaroUnian to serve on the high tribunal in more than 100 years. President Roosevelt said he would defer announcing his appointment for several weeks. Washington dis patches have said the SoRth Caro lina senator might be named. William Johnson, appointed in March, 1801, was the last South Carloinian to serve as a United States associate justice. He died Aug ust 4, 1931. He was a judge of tb“ state supreme court at the time of his appointment. In 1808 Justice Johnson handed down a decision nullifying President Thomas Jefferson’s order for the detention of five merchant ships in Charleston harbor under the em bargo act of April 25, 1808. Johnson was appointed by Jefferson. The (Decision was considered im portant in its day. Under the act, collectors of customs were instruct ed to detain any vessel bound with cargo to the United States ports when, in their opinion, the inten tion was to evade the embargo.

TURNER JEWELER SMALL PAYMENT DOWN $1 Weekly Today more than ever we need friends, someone to say a good word for us, someone to do a good turn, someone to take time to be friendly instead of running over us rough shod. Just the other day I went into a bank feeling rather down and out (as I always do close to borrowing time) I had nearly lost my love for mankind. A certain banker was very kind to me in that he spent several minutes in friendly conversation after the business had been finished. I went from the bank with a much lighter heart. A smile from a friend, a good word from one you know cares, a visit from someone you love—all these things make life really worth while especially at this time when the world seems to be rather upset. My good friend Mr. Adolph Hitler is very capable in taking over things and countries and to hear him tell it they are better off under his super vision. From what is happening in Roum- mania, part of France, and other countries, under his protecting wing, looks like manyiare right. When they say at last internal trouble will de feat our European dictator. Mr. Churchill’s sneeeh to the world is well worth while reading and he certainly hands Mussolini some bou quets, quote from Churchill’s speech, “Meanwhile, abroad in October a wonderful thing happened. One of the two dictators, the crafty, cold blooded, Hack hearted, Italian, who had thought to gain an empire on the cheat by stabbing fallen France in the back, got into trouble. Without the slightest provocation, stirred on by lust of Power and brut ish greed, Mussolini attacked and in vaded Greece only to be hurled back ignominiously by the <heroic Greek army. Who, I will say, with you as sent, have revived before our eyes the glories which from the classic age gild their native land.” Mr. Churchill says that Britan is preparing for anything Mr. Hitler may send them in the way of an in vasion. We can’t help but hope that they will be prepared to meet what comes. Dick Boulware. Washington, Feb. 12.—President Roosevelt plans to insist that the British government, in order to re ceive aid under the lease-lend pro gram, agree to issue sealed orders to commanders of vessels in the royal navy to steam for American ports if Germany should happen to seize England, International News Service was told today. The president was reported as hav ing voiced confidence to Democratic and Republican congressional leaders at a recent White House conference that England could repel invasion, at the same time assuring them that he intended to take care of United States interests. As one of the first steps to safe- 1 guard these, Mr. Roosevelt was re ported as saying he was determined that the Briish fleet would not fall into the hands of the axis powers in event they won the war. He does not want British warships turned on this country, he said. While Prime Minister Churchill last fall gave assurances that the British fleet would go to Canada if England falls,, it was reported the president realized that should an other government succeed the Church ill regime it might not fulfill the promise. Thus, it was said, he wants a definite agreement with regard to disposition of the British fleet. Mr. Roosevelt was quoted as say ing that he was going to “put on my Yankee trading pants” in order to protect United States interests dur ing the war and afterward in peace settlement negotiations.

PARALYSIS FUND NEARS $300 Latest figures on Newberry county collections for the nation-wide fight against Infantile Paralysis shows that nearly $300 are on hand. This is by no means the final count, as a number of coin boxes placed in schools throughout the county have not yet been returned. However, all collections are expected to be in and tabulated sometime this weekend and a final report will be issued to the public a4 soon thereafter as possible. A recent letter from Dr. Frank Owens, Chairman of the Committee for the Celebration of the President’s Birthday, states that the Newberry county figure has already far sur passed all expectations and that Newberry will this year make a show ing which will compare favorably with many South Carolina towns of larger population.
