Although about 3500,000 of the $851,000 War Bond quota for New berry county has been raised, Chair man E. B. Purcell points out that the long, hard pull will be in -raising the additional $351,000. Most of the latter amounts will have to come from small Bond buyers and the large firms are represented in the amounts already raised. Ohairman Purcell urges all Bond workers to continue their efforts and to push the cam paign vigorously in order that the campaign be a success. The pur chase of small bonds by a large num ber of people is desired, said Mr. Purcell, as the government is anx ious that as many people as can possibly do so hold these government securities against the days of depres sion sure to follow the close of the war. Five additional communities have raised their quotas since our last is sue, Peak, Mt. Bethel-Garmany, Fair- view. New Hope-Zion, and Bush Riv er.

We’ve been at sea for quite some time now and so far I haven’t suffered from sea sickness; as a matter of fact I have enjoyed my trip very much. Our dally rou tine aboard ship consists of eating, sleeping, reading, and of course there’s quite a bit of card playing.”^.

Mr. Havird was born in Newberry county, the son of Wilson and Sara Jane Stephens Havird. He began •his merchandizing career in Silver- street over 50 years ago, working first for the late T. J. Maffett who operated the only store in Silver- street at that time. Later entering business for himself he retired in 1933 turning over his business to his two sons, John Vernon and Jer ome Havird.

Anyway, just at the close of the Teheran Conference, Mr. Roosevelt casually mentioned that he had had a dream—that he had become the Pres ident of the whole world. Mr. Church (Sicily, July 11, 1943), Sgt. Owens, utterly disregarding his own safety, remained on board and under con tinued enemy fire aided not only his own gun crew, but also other men on that part of th^ ship to abandon ship. “After all the men except the cap tain and first mate of the ship had abandoned ship. Sgt. Owens then left the Ship and aided men who were unable to swim to lifeboats. His courage in face of great danger set a high example to all his comrades.” The Newberry sergeant is a mem ber of an anti-aircraft battalion. That’s What We Want To Know Quite a few of our soldiers have a word or so to say about clergymen and others who are deploring the bombing of German cities and about rough battle tactics in general. For the most part they’re pretty well epitomized by Staff Sergeant Marion A. Venturini USAAF. “We in uni form fear that certain of you people at home are going a little soft. Par ticularly those who think it horrible that our troops are using flame throwers. What the hell do they think the enemy is using, fly spray?” And Top Sergeant Barney Trukus, USA, takes this opportunity of tell ing whom it may concern that it is possible that the failure of the sol diers to vote in large numbers will not be a calamity to our federal ad- mniistration. “I haven’t taken any ipolls,’’ says Sergeant Trukus, “but seventy-five per cent of the Joes I’ve talked to would vote against any body in office just on general princi ples. They ain’t sore. Just agin the government, like good Joes always have been.’’ Minister but that maybe it had been something he ate. After a small si lence, Mr. Stalin said that he, too, had dreamed hut he couldn’t recall having made any such appointments. Certificate In Memory Of Son Mr. and Mrs. Ira L. Clamp have received a certificate in memory of their son, 2nd Lieut. Ira L. Clamp, Jr., which reads: In grateful memory of 2nd Lieut. Ira L. Clamp, Jr., A.
