HERE REQUESTED
DR. W. W. BOYCE TO PREACH
IN NEWBERRY
Dr. W. W. Boyce of the Erskine
Seminary of Due West will preach
in the Associate Reformed Presby
terian church Saturday evening and
Sabbath morning and evening. Dr.
Boyce is one of the most popular
speakers in the denomination. He
was formerly pastor of the First
A. R. P. church of Charlotte. He has
recently taken up work as a profes
sor in the Theological Seminary at
Due West.
A total of 232 boys and girls of
Newberry colunty are employed by
the National Youth Administration
in part-time work in schools and col
leges of this state during the current
school year.
■Mrs. Mamie Summer, NYA Area
Supenrir.or, in announcing this fact
explained that enlarged enrollments
of this year and in recent years, both
in schools and colleges, were made
possible to a great 'extent by NYA
aid. The NYA, it was pointed out,
attempts through its school and
college work program to keep youth
in school as long as possible so That
they may be better prepared to take
private employment.
Under the NYA program youths
are employed at work projects spon
sored by the school or college—pro-
ects which otherwise could not be
carried out, Mrs. Summer said. In
this way they obtain work exper
ience, which often aids them in ob
taining employment elsewhere. Some
of the projects carried out by NYA
student workers include office work,
beautification of school grounds, re
search work for teachers, and assist
ing in laboratories. Youth workers
in public schools are paid $3 to |6 a
month for their services, while col
lege NYA workers receive $10 to
$20 a month.

ed very interestingly, “Clean up, Fix
up,” and some of the ways and means
by which one may add much to im
prove, in and around the home. She
urged us to set a time and do it as
we are so inclined to keep putting
it off. Miss Counts gave also a pic
ture study which was a most inter
esting picture, “In Holland Waters”,
by Jean Paul Clays. Then she ex
plained the cotton stamp. The host
esses for the month, Mrs. L. V. Buz-
hardt and Miss Erin Taylor, served
refreshments, pound cake, jello with
whipped cream, sandwiches and cocoa.

stated.

this inspection period.
DISTRICT DPW MEETING
PASSOVER SEASON NEARS
Jews Will Observe Ancient Festival
of Freedom
Mrs. John H. Sanders and little son,
Felix, returned to Laurel, Mississip
pi, last week after spending several
weeks with her mother, Mrs. J. B.
Halfacre and other relatives in New
berry. Rev. Sanders has accepted a
call to Harlingen, Texas, where they
will move the 21st of this month to
make their home.
Oppressors come and oppressors
go, but the ideals of freedom out
last the changing fortunes of his
tory. This is the spirit and mes
sage of Passover, the Festival of
Freedom and Redemption which
Jews will once again celebrate, be
ginning with the Seder service in
t^e home, on Friday evening, April
11 (the fourteenth day of Nisan,
according to the Jewish calendar).
Observed for seven days by Re
form and Palestinian Jews, the Pass-
over Festival is celebrated for eight
days by O'.thodox and Conservative
groups. Pissover was first celebrat
ed for eight days by Jews living out
side of Palestine because of the un
certainty of calendar calculation in
ancient days. In the sevenith-day
celeration, the first and last days
are full holidays, while the eighth
day observance, tlje first two and the
last two days are holidays.
Unleavened bread (Matso) eaten
during Passover recalls the bread
which the Jews were forced to eat
because of their haste in fleeing
from Egyptian bondage to free
dom in Palestine. Celebration of
freedom so hardly won is the chief
motif of Passover. The Biblical
story of the plagues in Egypt and
the parting of the Red sea are re
counted in the Seder service.
From the Haggadah, a special
book, containing the story of Pass-
over, the head of each Jewish fam
ily will read the Passover tale. Of
ten decorated with handsome art
work,the Haggadah has become one
of the many beautiful Jewish cere
monial art objects.
Marion A. Wright, President of the
South Carolina Conference of Social
Work extends to all people engaged
in Social Work and other interested
citizens an invitation to attend this
meeting.
The program for the day is as fol
lows:
‘Morning session will be held at
Presbyterian college chapel with Dr.
Wm. P. Jacobs, president of the col
lege as pirnciple speaker. His sub
ject will be “The New Social Order.”
A Dutch luncheon will be served
at Thomwell Orphanage for 50c.
The afternoon session will be a
Round Table discussion at the State
Trainmg School. Mr. L. P. Hollis,
Superintendent of Parker District
Schools. Mr. C. K. Wright, Supt. of
the Laurens City Schools, Miss Myra
Reagon, Miss Mary P. Wheeler, As
sociate professor of Sociology, Uni
versity of South Carolina, and Miss
Ethel Sharp, psychologist. State Hos- |
pital will be on the afternoon pro
gram.
This is an opportune time for the
public to become better informed
about the social problems of our
State and at the same time to better
understand what the different organ
izations and institutions of the State
are doing.
If any one would like to make res
ervation for the luncheon please get
in touch with a staff member of the
Deipt. Public Welfare, Newberry.

There's A Difference,
Mr. Taxpayer
... between an illicit, unregulated traffic con
tributing nothing in state taxes, and South Caro
lina's legalized beer industry which pays more
than $1,000,000 in taxes to the state every year and
provides honest employment for 3,000 persons.
But occasionally some people, losing sight of this
difference, would unwittingly deprive the state of
this revenue, thereby increasing their own tax bur-
' dens as well as inviting a return of the anti-social
conditions resulting from unlicensed, unregulated
outlets.
If beer were not legal. South Carolina taxpayers
would have to pay higher taxes to take the place of
the great revenue now produced by beer. And
South Carolina merchants and home industries
would lose the benefits of an annual payroll
amounting to $3,000,000. ,
