GIFTS ARE SOUGHT FOR DISADLED VETS * " The second annual campaign of the American Legirn, and the Auxiliary to procure for distribution enough gift packages to give a generous Christmas for hospitalized service persons in South Carolina gets under way. This joint effort on the part of the Legion and Auxiliary enjoys again this year the cooperation of Eddie Cantor, who is plugging the idea on his weekly broadcast. It was Eddie’s idea last year, and he asked the Le gion and Auxiliary to take over from there. Christmas gifts for every wounded or sick person is the goal of the “Gifts for Yanks Who Gave” pro gram. American hospitals overseas will be included in this year’s dis tribution, and, though over a million packages were Sent out last year, even more will bV necessary this year. The public is urged to take advan tage of this opportunity to show our appreciation to our veterans who fought this war for us. Individuals who purchase or prepare gift pack ages, may place inside greeting cards bearing their names. Perishables should not be placed in any of these packages. Contents should be listed on a card and attached to the out side of each package to properly identify the package a nd to eliminate faulty distribution. These gifts may be left at any of the following col lection points: Selective Service head quarters, G. B. Summer & Sons, T. Roy Summer, or The Fashion. The Legion Auxiliary has pointed out that, last year, South Carolina had to borrow 2,000 packages from other states in order to have enough for her own men. There is no reason for South Carolina or New1)eri-y to fall down on a job like this, and all of us are urged to get busy and pre pare these gifts now. Collections will continue through December 10th, but the earlier they are turned in the better it will be for the volunteer* who are undertaking this commenda ble work. NEWBERRY CALVES WIN IN CHESTER Seven grade calves from local dairy herds won seven prizes in the dis trict calf show in Chester, October 31. These calves were bought when small and raised by members of Newberry county Negro boys, mem bers of 4-H clubs under the super vision of S. B. Marshall, Negro Coun ty Farm agent. These calves were taken to Chester by agent Marshall. Two won first prize; two won second; two won 3rd, and one won fourth prize in the dis trict show. Marshall has been working in the county for about a year and a half and the winning of thees prizes by Negro 4-H clubsters, is an indica tion that he is doing fine work. The sale of the large herd of pure bred registered Jersey cattle belong ing to the late Judge Neal W. Work man held at the farm near Chappells October 30th drew large numbers of buyers from this section of the coun try and was considered a very suc cessful sale and, what with the ideal weather an ideal setting for a sale, and the good lunch served by the members of the Vaughnville Home Demonstration club, the occasion was most enjoyable. One-hundred-one sales were made at a n average of approximately $264 each with an approximately total of $27,000. The top animal in the sale brought $780. Of the 101 animals sold six of them were bought by Newberry county farmers; and about 46 animals were sold to South Carolina dairymen. A number of the remainder were sold to Florida a nd Georgia a nd North Caro lina dairymen a nd several were bought by the University of Florida. Laurence B. Gardiner, Memphis, Tenn., was sales manager and Tom McCork, Montgomery, Ala., was the auctioneer. Besides the cattle sale dairy equip ment for selling bulk, and a refrigera. tion plant were also sold. TAX COLLECTIONS FAR ABOVE NORMAL Newberry county’s treasurer, J. Ray Dawkins, collected in the month of October $276,311.63 of Newber ry’s outstanding $359,704.00 1945 taxes. This is a record heretofore unequalled in the history of the county and Mr. Dawkins explains the unprecedented payments by giv ing much credit to a system install ed this year of sending each taxpay er a bill, or statement, of the amount of taxes owed. This statement also advises of a 1 per cent discount cn taxes paid before October 31st. Many tax payers told the treasurer they paid up because of the notice sent them. Mr. Dawkins also believes that the heavy tax payments is evidence of more money in the hands of the av erage persop. “DUDE” EFTING TO HEAD SALE OF CHRISTMAS SEALS Prof. T. E. “Dude” Epting has been named head of the county-wide com mittee which will direct the 1945 sale of Christmas seals to raise funds for tuberculosis control work, according to an announcement by Dr. James C.
