Every Week More People Read The Sun VOLUME 5; NO. 3 The Rising Sun—1856*1860 NEWBERRY, S. C. FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 7, 1941 PUBLISHED WEEKLY OUT AMONG THE PEOPLE TODAY’S DEMONSTRATION “The whole story of soil conserva tion on an actual farm within a single day,” is the way Paul Ezell describes the demonstration which is taking place today, November 7th on the Harry Sheely farm a few miles out of Newberry. Your reporter enjoyed seeing this farm in company with Mr. Ezell, “Brick” Mason, and A. B. Bryan of Clemson college one day last week. The work that is being done on this farm and which will be done today right before the eyes of Newberry farmers is indeed a revelation in mod. em farm practices. Too much detail to be described here, but every far mer should take a few hours off today and see this remarkable demonstra tion. It is to be an all-day affair and experts on every phase of farm man agement and soil conservation will be on hand to explain just what is tak ing place on this farm and results which will follow. The ladies of Smyrna demonstration club will also put on a demonstration—they will demonstrate their skill at preparing and serving a fine dinner right on the Sheely place. You will enjoy the din. ner and you will enjoy every moment of your trip. Just to see what it is possible to do with a farm sort of restores ones faith in the future of agriculture and recalls to mind Henry Grady’s dream of the time when the Southland would blossom like the rose as a result of just such farm management to be seen here today. Doctor Sid Derrick loudly proclaims himself a farmer and this column wants to see him there today. As good farmer as he is, there is some thing for him to learn here and his eonyiviality will add to the fellowship of the occasion. Pension Group Asks For Million Dollars LIKES PUERTO RICO & THE SUN iMany Niewfoemans remember pleasantly Dave Blackwell who was _ connected with the local OOC camp foia, according for a good while. Dave is now in - ------ Puerto Rico; is a first lieutenant connected with he 40th Bomb Group. He writes us as follows: “Even tho’ it is late reaching Puer to Rico, it is a welcomed piece of mail and does keep me well informed of news in Newberry. “Thanks for not discontinuing at expiration of subscription. . . Weath er nice and pleasant. . . . Will have been here one year tomorrow, 31st . . still like it” Dave will probably leam here first that his “sis” Zula is even at this time visiting in Newberry, where she and Dave are both popular. TRAFFIC LAWS Jim Johnson, who lakes certain type shows at carnivals, seems to have gotten the idea that we are “agin" enforcement of traffic laws re lating to parking. He got that way by a line in a recent issue to the ef fect that rigid enforcement of traffic law® cost the old administration some votes.- We were only reporting facts in this instance and were not express ing an opinion. But since Jim has brought the mat ter up we had just as well say that we are oposed to finin" anyone for a first offense for wrong parking or parking overtime. We know that the traffic laws must be enforced but it seems the same results could be accomplished by first warning an offender by putting a no tice on his car and keeping a copy of the same, to the effect that be would be fined if the offense were repeated. We have never been fined for wrong parking and have no grudge in the matter but we feel that every consid eration should be given where the law is unintentionally broken, and that the city should “sit down” more severely on those who habitually of fend. FAIR RECEIPTS LARGER We are informed by Secretary Hen ry Cannon that receipts at the fair this year total more than last year. This is indeed a good showing for the new management as many things contributed to cut down the crowds We believe we can look forward to increasing interest in our county fair. The State, 4th.

Youth Needs Discussed By Local Committee At the organization meeting of the Newberry County Local Advisory Committee October 22, many helpful suggestions were made as to the needs of youth which are being met by the NY A, and as to unmet needs which are still a challenge to that or. ganization, and to our community. Mr. P. B. Ezell stated that what with the rapid mechanization of farming operations in this section there is a real need for training youth to operate and repair farm machinery. Further, there seems to be a grow ing need for workers in various phas es of the textile and garment indus tries, in order to meet National De fense Program needs. It was reported that at the Greenwood resident Cen ter girls are being taught power sew ing, and that textile training will be in operation within a short time. The very thorough physical exam inations being given youth on the NY A and the remedial work being done is indicative of the tremendous unmet needs in this field. Mr. R. C. Lake pointed out that the NYA offers a continuing educational opportunity to out of school youth, and that the apprentice nature of its vocational training is invaluable both to youth and to the community. Mr. J. W. Wyman, State NYA Ad ministrative Assistant for Advisory Committees explained the purpose of Advisory Committees. In keeping with the democratic principles of our government, it is hoped that ideas and suggestions for coordinating the needs of our youth and those of the com munity will come from them to the State and National NYA, to the end that these needs may be even more adequately and satisfactorily met. With this in mind, these Advisory Committees are composed of youth, and adults representative of a wide range of interests and experience. This purpose of Advisory Commit tees may be most fully realized there fore, when it really becomes a liaison group between the needs of youth and the community, and the NY.*!, pro gram. The Newberry County Local Ad visory Committee invites suggestions and constructive criticism. It express ed enthusiasm for the splendid work already accomplished by the NYA and faith in its progressive future. The following committee members were present: Jake Wise, O. M. Cobb, P. B. Ezell, Mrs. Alice N. Spearman, Miss Claudine Smith, Miss Margaret Harmon, Ned Purcell, R. C. Lake, Berley Shealy, J. W. Wyman, J. N. Moore, Mrs. Mamie S. Summer, and Miss Claremont Lancaster, represen tatives of the NYA, were also present. Mr. O. F. Armfield was elected chairman of the Local Advisory Com mittee, and Mrs. Alice N. Spearman was elected vice-chairman. BIG AIR RAID CAUSES HAVOC “Let’s start this picture with a bang,” said Director Tim Whelan as the camera began to roll on Edward Small’s Production, “Intemartrional Lady”, showing at the Wells Theatre Monday and Tuesday. So the picture started with a bang. To be both lateral and mathematical, it started with a couple of hundred big bangs, the first scene showing an air raid on London with lovely Ilona Massey and nonchalant George Brent being showered with, incendiaries and anti-aircraft fragments. Debris, consisting of rubber bricks and cork masonry, tumbled down on to the set, a London street. A couple of taxi-cabs with blaeked-out head lights and wide white stripes painted around the fenders careened past a pit which had been opened up by high explosives. Half a dozen incendiaries burst into reddish flames here and there on the set and fire crackled ev erywhere. ARP men in steel derbies guided people into raid shelters. A twenty-foot flame leaped from a shat tered gas main. And debris contin ued to tumble down from the cat- walks above the set. It looked like a streamlined edition of Dante’s In ferno. County Library to Be Demonstration Center As announced recently the Newber ry County Library has been selected by the Works Projects adminstration library officials for a special library demonstration center.

Begins Sixth Year I n Lutheran Parish The congregations of the Kendall Mills Lutheran Parish entered upon the sixth year under the pastoral leadership of the Rev. J. B. Harman on November first. During the past five years both congregations of the Parish have made considerable progress in differ ent ways. At Summer Memorial 8 persons have been received into the church by Adult Baptism, 35 by confirmation and 94 by letter of transfer—making a to. tal of 137 received into full member ship of the church. During this time there have been nine deaths in the congregation (four of whom were non-resident members) and eight have been transferred to other congregations (all of these had mov ed out of- the community). Also the rite of Infant Baptism was ad ministered to 41. During these five years the Sun day school has been supplied with Parish School Hymnals and the Church with Common Service books; the inferior of the church given a better arrangement; the altar fur nished with vases, candelabra and 1 a cross; art windows have been install ed; the church building remodeled by adding seven Sunday school rooms and two towers at a cost of $2,300.00, not counting the labor contributed by members and friends; and the debt for the building and improvements has all been paid. At Bethany the membership roll of the Church has been increased from 34 to 84, and the Infant Baptism roll has been increased by 16; organiza tions of the Sunday school, the Wo men’s Missionary Society and the Children of the Church have been ef fected; new Parish School Hymnals added to the Sunday school and Common Service Books have been furnished to the congregation; a $9,- 000.00 rock veneer church building .has been erected and furnished; and the $1,800.00 debt has been decreased to $1,440.00. All of this ha* been done by the help of the Lord and the cooperation of the people. May the future be even greater than the past. $1.00 PER YEAR DOWN MEMORY LANE 30 YEARS AGO We wonder when the civic associa tion will appear before city council and get the coping around the pub lic square in front of tne old court house building^ This is an import ant matter which should not be delay ed too long. We are satisfied that Mayor Langford and his council will cooperate with the civic association in this important matter, but the civic association had better wake up and get busy. The Southern governors in confer ence in New Orleans this week have given the Southern cotton grower some mighty good advice, but it is the same advice which has (been given thousands of times in the very recent past—to hold the present crop off the market and' to curtail acreage next year. The great trouble with many of the Southern farmers, how ever, is that they have obligations which must be met, and that they are not abie to hold 'their cotton— they are forced to sell. The prob lem will only be solved when the Southern farmer raises his own sup plies at home, and raises cotton pure, ly as a money crop. In this way and in this way only can the Southern fanner become independent and de mand of the world a fair price for his cotton. We are buying too much high-priced Western com—and infer ior corn, at that—with money from low-priced cotton, and we are buying too many other thing* which we ought to be raising at home, and for which the soil of the South is peculiarly adapted. Mr. Oliver Havird, of Newberry, well known in Columbia because of his prowess on the Carolina baseball teams! of 1909 and 1910, is in the city to cheer the Gamecocks in their big battle Thursday.—Columbia Rec ord.
