Fair Grounds, Sept 2
The fifteenth annual consignment
sale of registered Jersey cattle by
the South Carolina Jersey Cattle
Club will be held at the Newber
ry County Fair Grounds on Mon
day, September 2, according to an
announcement from C. H. Lomas,

older cows suitable for foundation
stock.
Consignments to this sale come
from the top Jersey breeders’ herds
in this state and from outstanding
herds in North Carolina, Georgia,
and Tennessee. The animals con
signed are rich in the blood-lines
which are so much in demand to
day. Anyone buying at this sale

of constructive and carefully plan
ned breeding work done in herds

secretary of the club and manager
of the sale. A catalog, which may

Cash Payments Poor
Substitute For Job
Readjustment allowances are a
poor substitute for a job, James'
Julian Bush, executive director ,of
the South Carolina Employment Se
curity Commission, warned unem
ployed veterans today. An unem
ployed veteran is most often his
own best employment agent, he
said, and urged those claiming re
adjustment allowances for unem
ployment to engage in a diligent
search for jobs for themselves.
Mr. Bush pointed out that many
of the thousands of jobs which were
open a year ago have been filled
by workers released from the serv
ice and now veterans haven’t the
choice of employment which was
available then.
“In spite of the increased num
ber of workers available, people by
the thousands are being hired every
day,” he said. “If an unemployed
veteran is tq get a job he must be
at the right place at the right time.
Mere registration at an employ
ment office is no guarantee of a
job. The veteran serves himself
best by adding 'his own job hunt
ing efforts to those of the Em
ployment service.
“The veteran who unnecessarily
delays his own readjustment to
civilian occupation does himself an
injustice. Readjustment allowances
are only temporary and unless the
veteran conserves them, they may
be gone when he most needs them.”
Mr. Bush said that families,
"riends, and home communities can
ender invaluable service to the
selection great group of young veterans who
have had no previous civilian occu
pations or job hunting experience.
The official said no veteran may
receive allowances who holds him
self unavailable for suitable work.
A large number of applicants have
been held ineligible because of this
provision in the law, he added.

all the cherished elements which,
for generations, have made the

To Whom It May Concern:
This is to certify that I have known Dr. James McLeod for the past
four years as his pastor. It has been my privilege to be thus intimately
associated with him and it gives me great pleasure to offer this testimony
in his behalf.
I have found him to be a gentlemen of the highest type and the finest
calibre. His moral character is unquestionable. His integrity is abso
lutely above reproach. No man who knows him would dare question
these outstanding elements of his personality. > j
He is very cooperative and ready to work and give of his time and his
talent and his material substence to any enterprise which would tend to
benefit men, women and little children in a physical, moral and spiritual
way.
*
Thus I would measure the worth and usefulness and offer my apprecia
tion of the man. It would give me a pleasure to answer any questions as
to these statements.
