NOTES
By DORIS ARMFIELD
THE CARPENTERS HAVE
returned to Newberry after a
week in New York, on a summer
clothing buying trip . . . Miss Annie
Spearman and Mrs. Mazie Abrams of
Carpenter’s persKjnmel accompanied
Mr. and Mrs. E. A. Carpenter to New
York . . . “We bought many new
clothes”, said Mrs. Carpenter.
Among those clothes are bags, col
orful and summery . . . the new plas
tic costume jewelry . . . the newest
thing in gloves, nylons, that you see
advertised so much ... a new sup
ply of play clothes for any and all
occasions . . . evening dresses, each
of which you want to buy on sight . .
summer hats of all kinds. Carpen
ter’s really went to town buying
summer clothes for Newbenrians . . .
and just wait until you see the hats,
all kinds, sizes, and shapes. And the
newest thing in the way of a turban
is the “fish-net wrap around”, with
the huge wooden pin stuck through
the top where the turban knots . . .
and one of the most precious hat and
bag sets your reporter has ever seen
—the background for the bag and hat
is light straw, and) horizontally across
the basket shaped bag and the circu
lar hat run rows of vari-colored wool
thread, such as you see vari-colored
sweaters knit from . . . for more con
venience in opening the zipper on the
bag, there is a tassel of the same
wool thread, and from the center of
the hat swings a matching tassel . . .
it is a precious combination for any
one, and I know it will be most popu
lar ... It may be seen on the first
floor or second floor of Carpenter’s.
Don’t buy summer clothes until you
see the new supply just brought from
New York for Carpenter’s custom
ers. You’re bound to be satisfied.

several months visit in the Panama
Canal Zone.
MRS. WILLIE MAE LONG
was surprised last week when
she backed her car out of her yard
and saw a car from Massachusetts
parked' in front of her home. A lady
and small boy were standing there,
picking some poppies from the side of
the road. With true southern hospi
tality, Mrs. Long told the lady to go
up on her lawn and pick all the pop
pies she wanted. The lady apologiz
ed for picking the poppies without
asking permission, and about that
time the little boy noticed there were
tears in her eyes. ‘Why are you
crying, Mommy?” he asked. The lady
explained. She was originally from
California, and had been living in
Massachusetts for 35 years. Those
were the first California poppies she
had seen, and she was so homesick
that She just had to stop and pick
some of them. It must have been nice
to be that far away from home for
that long, and see some little thing to
bring back memories.
YOUR REPORTER, AT THE
age of nineteen, made her first
trip to Charleston last week. Be
fore I left, everyone said, “I bet you’ll
not like Charleston”, so I was prepar
ed in advance not to like it. I don’t
see how anyone ever get the idea
of not liking Charleston. There
were only two things about it I could
not get used to: the smell, which isn’t
nearly so pleasant as Newberry, and
the houses, right on the street with
out any porches or lawns . . . being
used to both all my life, it would be
hard to get used to not 'having them.
If one should go to Charleston dur
ing the Azalea Festival, and take in
all the Festival offers, one couldn’t
help but like Charleston. The “queens”
from all over the state were enter
tained every moment of their stay,
always something interesting to do.
One of the most thrilling things your
reporter did was broadcasting,
j three interviews and a quiz program
. (and, by the way, winning a dime!).
, The very idea of speaking over the
radio always scared me, but after I
was in front of the “mike”, I didn’t
mind a bit. More fun than any other
liroadcast was being interview from
one of Charleston’s most exclusive
dress shops by Franz Witte, WTMA
announcer, and the famous Alicia
Rhett, who as you all remember,
played the part of India Wilkes m
“Gone With the Wind.” Don’t ever
connect the personality of India
Wilkes, who she so excellently por
trayed, and Alicia, for they are ex
actly opposite types. Instead of the
hateful and mean India, she is one of
the most lovable Characters I have
ever known, with a grand vivacious
personality. It was worth the trip to
meet her, if nothing more.
Someone learning that it was my
first trip to Charleston, wanted to
know what I wanted to see most. The
first thing entering my mind was the
“botry” although I found that Char
lestonians don’t pronounce it that
way at all, but to them its the battery.
Every Charlestonian I talked with
said the Festival Parade on Wednes
day afternoon was the prettiest in
the eight years of the festival, and
the girls were better looking every
year. Someone remarked that though
it was the Azalea Parade, they didn’t
see one Azalea in the Whole tiling.
The entire motif of the parade was
National Defense, and all the floats
and cars in the parade carried out
this theme. Charleston, itself, was
covered with flags of all sizes and
shapes ,and was a colorful sight to
see both in daytime and at night, with
the brilliantly lighted streets. Ending
the parade at the Customs House
steps, the queen of Charleston, Miss
Elizabeth Martin was crowned. Miss
Martin is 17 years old, is a sopho
more at the College of Charleston.
She is tall, with brown hair, and al
though she was one of the prettiest
of all the state queens, didn’t com
pete for Die honor of being Miss Aza
lea Queen 9th. Winner of that hon
or was Greenville’s representative,
Dott Beatty, who is a student at
Ashley Hall in Charleston. She is
tall, blackheaded, dark complexioned,
and blue eyed, and made an excellent
queen in her regal robes. She will
rule over the next azalea festival,
and takes the place of Miss Ernest
ine Siitton of Easley, retiring queen.
If your reporter had to say what
She liked best about Charleston, it
would be almost impossible. One
thing adding to her pleasure was her
stay at the Francis Marion hotel,
where part of the queens were enter
tained. Charleston, where it is said
the Ashley and Cooper Rivers meet to
form the Atlantic Ocean, is a grand
place. The Battery, the Cooper River
Bridge, the museum, the magnificent
old buildings. Folly Beach, and the
Isle of Palms, the yacht Basin and
Colonial Lake at night . . . everything
is so grand that it would be hard to
mention one favorite place. From
now on, just so it’s Charleston, it
suits me.

DON’T WANT TO STUDY WAR
NO MORE
There are millions of Americans
who don’t want to get rnio the Euro
pean' war and their leader is Col.
Lindbergh. His speeches have ral
lied the anti-war sentiments to the
point where Doctor Roosevelt hesi
tates to make . . . decisions that
might involve us. The people (have
long memories, after all, it seems.
They haven’t forgotten the tragic
consequences of our other great cru
sade in foreign parts to make the
world safe for dictators. The useless
sacrifice of men and treasure that we
made to end all war still rankles. We
gained nothing, we lost all.

FARM GUIDE FOR MAY
To remind' farmers of essential
farm activities in May, County Agent
P. B. Ezell makes these suggestions:
Agronomy
Do not ruin a good stand of cotton
by chopping it all out. Leave two
or three stalks every 8 to 12 inches.
For a profitable investment make a
side application of nitrogen to cotton
soon after chopping. Plan to put all
grain stubble land ■ into soybeans,
cowpeas, or velvet beans for soil-
conserving and soil-building crops.
Horticulture
Sow tomatoes for July transplant
ing, col lard and cabbage for August
transplanting. Mulch tomatoes heav
ily with straw or leaves to hold mois
ture and prolong fruiting. Do not
cultivate beans while the foliage is
wet. Apply nitrate of soda to gar
den crops if not growing well. Do
not cut young asparagus too closely;
fertilize and manure the bed after
cutting season.
Insects and Diseases
Arrange to poison the boll weevil
early. Spray fruit trees for curculdo,
codling moth, and diseases. Spray
pecans with Bordeaux to control scab.
Band apple trees for codling moth
by May 15. Control potato bugs
with arsenical poisons. See the coun
ty agent about latest information On
tomato fruit worm. Get ready to
fight the screw worm.
Agricultural Engineering
Keep working parts of farm
machinery greased or oiled, as this is
mower, binder, or other harvesting
machinery for need repairs. Be sure
that grain is dead ripe before harv
esting with a combine, which usually
is 10 days to two weeks after it is
customary to begin harvesting with
the binder.
Soil Conservation
Watch the terrace channels during
the planting and cultivating period.
A big rain may silt them up in places
and cause breaks later. Sow some
ciose growing crop on newly con
structed terraces. Sorghum or Su
dan is fine for this. Visit your near
est Soil Conservation Service demon
stration area and study the condi
tions and results.
ROAD TO FLAME
Beer and whiskey drinking will
make great soldiers at our army and
navy camps. How do ve know? Why
didn’t that most successful general
of the Union, Mr. Grant drink pro
digious quantities of it?
Whiskey and beer drinking will help
the soldier to march farther, shoot
sbraighter, fly higher, and run fas
ter (if he has to run) than the fellow
who doesn't indulge. The bright guy
whose head produced this idea for
. . . the beer and whiskey barons had
a real think-trap on his shoulders and
must have known*his way around
big places in Washington.
The fathers and mothers who fur
nish the boys of .which soldiers are
