PLEAL
MA I. EARLY
Captain J. E. Lawson, retired rail
road conductor, celebrated his 84th
birthday, Thanksgiving Day at the
home erf his granddaughter and her i
husband, Mr. and Mrs. Tom Long of
Newberry, when Mrs. Long enter-
teiined metmlbier» of the family at
their home on Main street.
Captain Lawson has lived in Co
lumbia for many years and prior to
his retirement was conductor on jhe
Southern Railroad between Colum
bia and Greenville.
He enoys excellent health for his
age and is very active. He drove
his own car to Newberry, being ac
companied by his son, W. F. Law-
son of Columbia, who also attended
the birthday celebration.
Captain Lawson has three child
ren, W. F. Lawson, and Mrs. A. B.
Weathersbee, both of Columbia and
Mrs. Henry Baldwin of Savannah,
Ga., five grandchildren and five
great grandchildren.
Others present for the birthday
occasion were his grandson, J. W.
Lawson, Mrs. Lawson and their two
children, Billy and Alice, of Char
leston and great-granddaughter,
Sara Alice Long of Newberry.
The local post office is urging all
its patrons to mail Christmas cards
early again this year. According to
Postmaster G. X. Dominick the peo
ple of Newberry have been most co-
coperative fer the past two Christ
mas seasons in mailing cards early,
and this has been greatly appreciat
ed. Last year the mailing of cards
started in earnest on December _lst
and during the first week in Decem
ber nearly 30,000 cards were mailed.
This year it is more necessary than
ever before that cards be mailed ear
ly if delivery is to be effected by
Christmas day. The post office is
counting on the people of Newberry
to again demonstrate their willing-
1 ness to help out in this emergency
i situation.
“Cards will “be appreciated much
! more if they are received well ahead
of Christmas than if received at the
last minute or after Christmas”, say
postal officials.
