EFENSE BUY UMTED STATES SAVINGS BONDS AND STAMPS ON SAIF AT YOUR POST OFFICE OR BANK America ON Guard!

Defense Bonds and Stamps, on sale at your bank or post office, are a vital part of America’s defense preparations. Over 80,000 children of this state are transported to and from our schools by means of the school bus and it is a responsibility of all to see that these pupils reach school and return home, with the maximum of protection, said Captain E. Fleming Mason of the South Carolina High way Patrol. Our drivers must hold in mind the legal necessity which requires every motorist to stop and wait for the halted school bus loading or unload ing children on the open highway. Most drivers overtaking the halted school bus from the rear understand that they must not pass but many a motorist fails to realize that a com- 1 plete stop and wait is also necessary when meeting the unloading bus. Another school year of opportunity and enjoyment is underway for the thousands of boys and girls in South Carolina, Captain Mason said, and this mass movement of pupils of all ages to and from the schools every day is a major responsibility of school authorities, parents, enforcement agencies, the driving public, and the individual pupil. The highway patrol urges every driver to recognize and hold in high est regard this child transportation which involves the use of 992 school buses on street or highway. Strict observance on the part of every mot orist to the traffic requirement of stopping and waiting on every load ing or unloading bus must become a habit. Rigid requirements must be adher ed to in the selection and discipline of the driver by school officials and in the education and control of the chil dren. Proper upkeep of bus equip ment must be provided for if success ful operation with regard to the child's welfare is to result. This at tention on the part of school auth orities is of immediate and major im portance in view of increased traffic with the mass movement of troops on our highways and defense man euvers offering unusual driver prob lems for the bus operator. In so far as the human factor af fects pupil transportation, the bus driver holds the key position, pointed out the Captain of the Patrol. A safe but and standard safety regulations will avail little if the bus driver fails to meet his responsibility for the safe operation of his vehicle. Appeal is therefore made for the careful selection, training and eon. ?tant supervision of school bus drivers entrusted with the care of our children. Officials of the high way patrol ask that motorists slow down when approaching any group of school children and hold constantly in mind the thought that school time demands added precaution on the part of the man behind the wheel.

Whatever kind of work we take an interest in, if we don’t have some wind of encouragement it is likely to be a failure. In my 41 years as a correspondent I would feel like giv ing it up if I had not had some en couragement. The other week I heard a Prosperity lady say she en joyed reading my letters; that they made her feel good. Also a prominent lawyer of Newberry said the same. In the trials of the farmer they need encouragement. They a re under going something now they have never before seen. If there ever was a gloomy day it is staring them in the face. As I have said before, there are some who will not get their cot ton seed back, nor will they make any coin. But'for all that ,we must have a bright outlook, believing that this will not be the only day. We can look and hope to 1942 to be a pros perous year. Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Graham moved to Whitmire Wednesday, the 10th. We regret to see them go but wish them much happiness there. The last account we heard of Mr. Jeff Sease is that he is improving. Several of the men in this com munity are now employed in work in Columbia. S. C/s New Junior Senator (In our cupidity, Brother Corres pondent, we often overlook a spiri tual element in being denied the creature comforts. Nothing good or lasting has ever come to the world except thru sacrifice, and toil and suffering. Particularly is this true of ■ the thin-srs which elevate the human soul. The spirit of man is vain and j boastful in times of plenty, but his tail goes between his legs when ad-; veisity strikes, and so humbled the little good in him comes to surface. —Ed.) ^otlaty IS THIS Y OU?
