A large assemblage of friends and
relatives witnessed the ring cere
mony, which was performed by the
Rev. M. M. Brooks of Ninety-Six
and the Rev. N. R. Polk of New
berry.
The church wta|s defcorjited with
the green and white. In the choir
loft and chancel, tall pedistal bas
kets of white gladioli, interspersed
with cathedral tapers, burning in
seven branched candelabra against

bert). Miss Paysinger sang, “I Love
Thee” (Greig) and the wedding
hymn, “O Perfect Love” (Barnby),
following the benediction. “Lieb-
straum” (Lizt) was played while the

H. Layton and Frank K. Jones,
brother and uncle of the bride.
“The Coronation March” (Mayer
Beer) was used for the processional
of the attendants, while the bride
entered to the first strains of the
“Bridal Chours” from “Lohengrin.”
“Intermezzo” (Provost) and “To A
Wild Rose” (McDowell) were softly
played during the ceremony, “Wed

HOW REVENUE FROM
BEER IS GOING
AND WHY SOUTH CAROLINA
NEEDS THIS ADDED INCOME
With war-time priorities and short
ages cutting sharply into other tax
revenues,* South Carolina needsadded
income from taxes on beer more than
ever before!
has meant more than $15,000,000 in
tax revenue to the State — more than
3,500 honest jobs with an annual pay
roll of $3,500,000 - all spent with
South Carolina merchants for food
and clothing and necessities.
Just look at these figures! While other
sources fluctuated, here is how your
Treasury’s income from beer taxes
have increased since 1933:

Who’d provide these jobs if beer were
not legal? Who would pay the taxes?
Where would the State get this extra
government income?
The brewing industry wants to pre
serve these benefits for South Caro
lina, and is cooperating to keep the sal#
of beer as wholesome as beer itself.
YOU CAN HELP by patronizing only
legally licensed and reputable places
selling beer - by far the great major
ity. Others should be reported to re
sponsible authorities.

15,000 Miles Rural
Lines Serve State
“Nothing shows more clearly the
progress that has been made in car-
rying electricity to the farms of the
State than the fact that in 1936
there were only approximately 625
miles of Rural Lines in the State,
while today there are 14,600 miles of
such lines serving 66,240 customers
in South Carolina”, states director
D. W. Watkins of the State Exten
sion service.
Up to 1939 considerable progress
had been made under the State Auth
ority in extending Rural Lines, and
at the time it had constructed 1,255
miles that served 4,283 customers.
But it was in that year that a phen
omenal growth of Rural Electrifica
tion commenced in the State through
the medium of local cooperatives
set up under R.E.A. and under the
local guidance of G. H. Stewart,
Rural Electrification Specialist‘or the
State Extension Service. Since ther 1
local cooperatives have been organiz
ed all over the State and thousands
of miles of new lines have been built.
Today the cooperatives alone have
approximately 9,900 miles of rural
lines that serve over 26,000 custo
mers. v
Before R.E.A. came along this
State was near the bottom of the
list in percentage of farms with el
ectricity. Today it is up to the Na
tional average, and has shown more
progress than any other State.
“R.E.A. through these local co
operatives has made it possible for
many Rural areas that are not so
thickly populated to get electricity,
where otherwise it was impossible”,
states Mr. Stewart. “Many addi
tional new lines have been worked
up by the local organizations, and ex
tensions, which have been checked
on account of material shortages,
will be made as soon as the emergen,
cy passes. Then additional thous
ands of farm homes will get their
electricity”, he concludes.
AIR AGE AHEAD?
Automobile makers and dealers
who look forward to business as us
ual after the war, may find a diff
erent field open to them. The im
petus that is being given to modern
ization of the airplane by the pres
ent conflict probably foreshadows
the air age in this country—the age
in which automobiles will be out
moded, and the air filled with flying
machines driven by private owners.
The first world war brought the
motor car into general use. At the
time we entered that war, cars were
proportionately few among the pop
ulation. They were stilFlooked upon
as a rich man’s plaything. A few
years after the war, however, all this
had changed, and the country was
riding on rubber.
Just as the first war put the coun
try’s travel on pneumatic tires, the
present conflict may give us wings.
It will not be easy or economical to
change car factories now making
flying machines back to car produc
tion; it will be much easier to keep
on making flying ships for the pub
lic.
Mrs. Buddin is the oldest daugh
ter of Mrs. Charles Franklin Layton
and is a graduate of Newberry col
lege. Since graduation she has
taught in the Union schools. For
her going-away, she wore a costume
suit of deense blue with red and
white accessories. An orchid corsage
completed her costume.
Mr. Buddin is the son of Mr. and

Says Britons Have -
Served Well
(By DOROTHY THOMPSON)
All right; all right; yes, I read
Cecil Brown, and so did Goebbels.
He’s quoting him all over the place.
Yes; I know the show in Singapore
was not so good. Yes; I know about
the complacency; yes, I know they
didn’t follow a “scorched earth” po
licy. Yes—you can’t feel worse
about it than I did. I know what it
means. Maybe I know what it means
better than you do—the fall of Sin
gapore.
Just the same, I can’t stand the
cackling. Who’s calling whom names?
Is this war in the Far East the
fault of the British? We talked a
year and a half. The British sup
ported us in the Far East, not we
the British. Do you remember Pearl
Harbor? Were we so hot at Pearl
Harbor ?
Listen, brothers: This is a war
against Japan and Nazi Germany.
Get this straight: The British are our
allies.
The Lady and Her '.Cat
I read all the interviews with the
American citizens who came from
Penang. The British didn’t evacuate
the Americans properly. The British
didn’t have antiaircraft guns. The
British didn’t this and the British
didn’t that. The lady withe Siamese
cat had plenty to say, as I remem
ber.
Listen, sister, you got home all
right, didn’t you—you and the Siam
ese cat? Ever occur to you to offer
one prayer of gratitude to God? If
you weren’t properly protected, what
have you ever done to protect any
body else? Listen, sister, you get
busy and join the air-raid precau
tion service. Get busy. There’s a
lot to do right here. And if things
don’t go well right here whom will
you blame—the British?
The British didn’t have to have a
war with Japan and they didn’t have
to have a war with Hitler. Do you
know that? They could have toss
ed the continent to the winds and
made a deal with both our enemies—
against us. A military deal, a fin
ancial deal, a trade deal. All they
had Co do was agree about spheres
of influence in the Western Hemis
phere and the east. Hitler’s still
moaning that 'they didn’t do it.
Seventy Million Anglo-Saxons '
Did you ever look at the map?
There are seventy-odd-million An
glo-Saxon members of the English-
speaking world outside the United
States and they are scattered from
Land’s End to bell and gone. Not
quite 2 years ago they had the Ger
mans at the Channel and there
weren’t any antiaircraft guns in
Britain, either. Forty-seven million
people on a little island and they
could starve in a fortnight. And for
a year and a half they held the
world at bay alone. That doesn’t
make any impression om you? Fif
ty thousand of them died—right in
England. I can’t remember that any
body whimpered.
When the King of Belgium made a
separate peace, Paul Reynaud cried,
“Treason.” Churchill said, “We re
serve judgment.”
Did you ever read Lincoln’s sec
ond inaugural address ? Take a
look at it again. “The judgments of
the Lord are true and righteous al
together.”
Listen to the Vichyites in New
York. "Britain let us down.” Not
one mumbling word from Britain
about the France that handed over
everything to Hitler. Not a word.
Only faith in France—when even
France didn’t have any.
Work of Centuries
You’d think to listen to some of
you that you want Britain to lose.
Careful, careful, be quiet and pray.
It took Britons and Hollanders,
Frenchmen and Americans hundreds
of-years to open this globe for
white men. Japan, since Perry, is
88 years old. And in a few weeks
hundreds of years may be swept
into the ashcan, and the Japs have a
straight open line from India to
Suez.
You don’t think much of the Bri
tish Empire ? No ?
Well, brother, if Britain goes,
write finis over western civilization.
Or do you think perhaps that Am
erica can carry it alone?
You don’t know what England
means, my friend. England is very
tired, and England is old. Yet,
though, it slay me, I tell you this:
England is the last refuge of the
civilized soul. Pray for England. I
eay England. England, so piroud,
and England who knows humility.
Again, Pearl Harbor
Have you heard the British say a
word against the Americans? Did
they crow over Pearl Harbor? Did
they rush into print to talk of our
smugness and complacency?
Did you ever have an Englishman
or an Englishwoman for a friend?
Did that friend ever let you down?
In the hour of her greatest dis
tress, her greatest disaster, I am
American, write these lines to Eng
land. And I say to England: In
spite of Singapore I sing with you,
“Land of hope and glory, mother of
the free.” And I sing with you.
“There’ll always be an England, and
England will be free.” And I ask
you to sing with me the great songs
of America, Sweet Land of Liberty,
and Columbia, the Gem of the Ocean
and Mine Eyes Have Seen the Glory
—songs written in the world’s
greatest language, the great lan-.

Through the Perilous Fight
There’s a line in the Star-Spangled
Banner—“Stars through the perilous

There are stars, England.
And don’t believe the lady with

Good food makes life longer, hap
pier, healthier. Good eating thruout
life helps to build old-age health se
curity.
In fact, it has been said that pres
ent day nutrition offers an extra 10
years to the life of anyone who lives
under its guidance. Best of all, these
extra years probably can be added to
life at its prime, according to Dr.
Henry Sherman, one of the country’s
leading nutritionists.
Good eating for older people dif-
ers in some ways from good eating
for younger persons. Home econo
mists of the U. S. Department of Ag
riculture point out some of the im
portant differences.
As far as we know now, there are
three main things to keeip in mind.
First, an older person needs fewer
calories than he did when he was
younger because he uses less energy.
He uses less energy because many
of his body mechanisms have slowed
down—he doesn’t work so hard or
play so actively. The easiest wal
to tell, of course, whether too much
food energy is being taken is to watch
the scales. The best way to cut
down on food energy is to go slow on
foods that supply little else than cal
ories, such as rich desserts, pastries,
many of the fats, and rich dressings.
Second, though calories are reduc
ed, food must be planned so that
minerals and vitamins are not cut
down. For older persons need these
in about the same amounts as they
always have. Therefore, older per
sons must continue to have plenty
of protective foods in their diet, es
pecially milk, fruit and vegetables,
and some foods rich in vitamin Bl.
Third, food for older persons must
be easy to eat and easy to digest.
Many things can be done in meal pre
paration to help toward this end.
Fruit and tomatoes may be taken
in the form of juices. Salad greens
may be chopped up very fine. Vege
tables may be cooked tender—even
chopped up or seived and served in
purees, soups, and such dishes. Al
ways take care to conserve the wa
ter in which vegetables are cooked,
however, to save valuable minerals
and vitamins that may have dissolv-
