Harman, died Friday, February 25, at the Newberry county hospital after a lingering illness, at the age of 45 years and eight days. Mrs. Hipp was a graduate of the Prosperity high school and studied piano under some of the best teach ers in the country. She taught in the public school a few years, but her chief interest and inclination was for music; and in this respect she de voted most of her life. She taught music in different schools and had many private pupils with whom she was very popular. Her activities, however, were not confined to work of this kind, but she did a lot of community and . church work. For many years she has been pianist and choir director in the church of which she was a member, a teacher of the Young Women’s Bible class and a worker in other organizations cf the church. She was a member of Sum mer Memorial Lutheran church of Newberry, of which her father is the pastor. She was the widow of the late late Arthur T. Hipp, who died sev eral years ago. Besides her parents she is survived by three children: Mrs. Hoyt L. Smith, Miss Sarah Mae Hipp, and Arthur Harman Hipp, all of Newberry; a brother and four sisters, J. B. Harman, Jr., Mrs. L. M. Matthews, Mrs. C. W. Bowers, of Columbia, Mrs. J. S. Riddle, of Char lotte, N. C., and Mrs. Bloomer F. Hawkins of Newberry. The funeral services were held at St. Lukes Lutheran church, near Prosperity on Saturday, February 26, at four o’clock p, m., with the Rev. V. L. Fulmer in charge .assisted by Revs. W. D. Haltiwanger, George E. Meetze, and Carl W. Kinard, President of the South Carolina sy nod. Burial was in the St. Lukes cemetery. The active (pallbearers were her cousins, L. C. Fulmer, John Fulmer, Jesse B. Wessinger, Forest M. Shea- ly, J. Silas Harman, and Roy L. Bal- entine. The honorary pallbearers were members of the church councils of Summer Memorial and* St. Lukes churches. The flower girls were members of the Young Women’s Bible class of Summer Memorial church, of which she was the teacher. CHAMBER OF COMMERCE NOTES Do not contribute to a solicitor untiy yuu first ascertain they have a permit. If they have not a permit, tell them to get one and come back. Recently a solicitor was refused a permit, but proceeded to solicit and received money from several merch ants—none asking to see a permit. Evidently as an inducement to others to give, this solicitor prepared his own list of contributors. We have many different drives going on and occasionally we hear someone say there is too many of them. Yes, we do have different drives, but not nearly so many as the boys out in the Pacific or the boys in Italy or those on any of the many other fronts. We are asked to gather up our old discarded schap iron, or paper, or waste fats, or tin cans, support the Red Cross, etc—verily at our conven ience, and not to our discomfort. These things that are vital to the war course and to the success and life of our boys. THEY are forced to leave com forts of home to endure the dangers of torpedoing, to land on foreign soil, to wade ashore in the face of every kind of bullet and bomb con ceivable by man, to travel through knee-deep to waist-deep mud, in a downpour of rain, to crouch for hours in a fox hole half full of freezing water, to cut their way through tropical wildernesses full of large spiders, lizards, snakes, poi sonous plants and Japs, eating if and when they can get C or K rations, being wounded, and at times lying for hours until help finally arrives. Yes, and even dying. What we are asked to do is a cinch. Let’s consider their sacrifices, then our own. Then pitch in and really do our best. Bring in your tin cans, fats, paper, do your part to make the farm scrap campaign a success. Support the Red Cross and everything that will contribute to the success of our boys out there. And count it a pri vilege that you can have a part in so worthy a cause—under such favor able conditions. L. C. GRAHAM, Secretary NEWBERRY Ins. & Realty Co.

I was reared on the farm. I have farmed all my life. I am still living on the farm. For more than 50 years I have studied farm conditions, I don’t recall a time when we were satisfied. Cotton was 6 cents a pound. The old Farmers’ Alliance met and set 7 cents as a minimum at which they would sell. Most of sold for less than 7 cents. George W. Truitt of LaGrange had a parade of a dozen wagons loaded with cotton with big placards hanging on the sides read ing, “Eight cents or to the warehouse we go.” He went to the warehouse. Twenty-five years ago one of my neighbors was offered 46 cents for his cotton. This was not satisfac tory. He wanted 50 cents. He held it and took 10 cents. Just before Roosevelt went into office I saw a friend in Covington with four sam ples of cotton in his arms. He said he was offered 4 1-2 cents for it. He was not satisfied. He wanted 5 cents for it. I have sold cotton for 4 cents and cottonseed for 10 cents. No folks in the world do as much complaining as we farmers whether, we have cause or not. It’s too wet 1 or too dry, or too hot or too cold. I The speculators have it in far us, or ' maybe the Government is lying! awake at night trying to crush us. | No administration in all the history , of our country has ever lent us farm- : ers a helping hand before Roosevelt! came into office. Farm prices have ! risen higher than any other products in the country. The 1943 farm crops were the highest in history. They were 36 per cent above 1942. Our commercial truck crop was 73 per cent above 1942. The present administration has been very partial to us farmers but still we grumble. Let’s study the fallowing comparisons of prices of our products for \932 and 1943, and see if we can’t humble ourselves in thanksgiving far many blessings that have come to us years.

We must not have breadlines and vacant farms an jobless, tired men in Army overcoats tramping cit streets. But what about the day after? What happens when the tumult and the shouting have died, and all of us turn back to the job of ac tually making this country the wonderful place we’ve dreamed it would be “after the War”? No man knows just what’s going to happen then. But we know one thing that must not happen: We must not have a postwar America fumbling to restore an out-of-gear economy, staggering under a That is why we must buy War Bonds—now. For every time you buy a Bond, you not only help finance the War. You help to build up a vast reserve of postwar buying power. Buying power that can mean millions of postwar jobs making billions of dollars’ worth of postwar goods and a healthy, prosperous, strong America in which there’ll be a richer, happier living for every one of us.
