Gives Interesting Account of Trip Through Country To Farm Meet Mr. and Mrs. H. O. Long have re turned from San Francisco, where they attended the National conven tion of the American Farm Bureau Federation, December 8-13. They were aboard the North Carolina- South Carolina-Virginia special train leaving Greenville on Novem ber 30, with two days in New Orleans, two in Los Angeles, ana stop-overs with sightseeing tours in the following additional places: San Antonio, El Paso, Texas; Jua- rex, Mexico; Grand Canyon. On the return trip stop-overs were made at Salt Lake, Utah, Denver, Colorado, and other leading cities. One chief point of interest at Salt Lake was the magnificant and cost ly structure of Utah Stone and Georgia marble composing the state capitol. The governor’s gold room was furnished at a cost of $65,000 in pre-war years. Another attra- tion was a special organ recital for the party in the famous Mormon Temple with its wonderful acous tics. The North Carolina delegation was proud of the fact that ex-Gov- emor and Mrs. Broughton were honored guests among their passen gers. He made several addresses along the way, and met his per sonal friends, the governors and statesmen, especially Governor Maw of Utah. Altogether is was a group of men and women of high caliber, as at tested by the fact that the various groups conducted the Sunday school classes on their pullman cars. Among the highlights of the trip was the informal banquet at the Ambassador hotel, Hollywood, with Kay Kyser (North Carolinian) as honor guest and toastmaster. Sev eral other stars were present also. The convention was attended by about eleven thousand delegates and visitors, and all were royally entertained. Not least of the at tractions was the music. Conven tion Hall contains one of the finest pipe organs in the world; also two grand pianos were used in accom paniment to the group singing, of which there was plenty. The con cluding feature was a barbecue and rodeo staged at Cow Palace, San Francisco, with real bronc busting, calf roping, bull fighting, and other acts traditional of the wild west. And as a climax, eight thousand charcoal broiled steaks, with acces sories, were served to an endless line over four hours, while Cali fornia fruits in profusion were of fered to alL Tells of Appreciation During Term County Probate Judge In retiring from the office of Probate Judge of Newberry Coun ty, I wish to publicly express my sincere thanks to all of those who have contributed to my successful and pleasant performance of the duties of the office. Executors and administrators of estates, guardians of minors and committees of in competents have been very coop erative. I am glad to repiort to all interested in the office of Probate Judge that the accountants, em ployed by the Legislative Delega tion to check the office, found everything in perfect order, and I am told that, in all probability, the office of Probate Judge of Newber ry County, as to its financial af fairs, is one of the best in the State. My successor, Honorable E. Maxcy Stone, for the past several months acted as cleric in the office, and that experience helped very much to acquaint him with the duties of the office. I am glad to turn the work over to a young man of such high character, who is well equip ped to discharge its duties. As will be seen, I have given the legal notice of the settlement of the estate of my husband, Honorable Neal W. Workman, on February 4th, 1947. All claims against his estate, presented to me, have been settled, and so far as 1 know there are no outstanding claims. If there are any, I shall be very glad to have them presented right away. For a few days, so that I may be in touch with those who may have business with me as executrix of my husband’s estate and to assist Probate Judge Stone until his reg ularly appointed clerk has become a little more familiar with the work of the office, I may be found almost daily at the office of the Probate Judge. I wish the people of Newberry County to know that I am deeply appreciative of the many kind nesses bestowed on and confidence shown in both Judge Neal W. Work man and myself. (Mrs.) Geneva T. D.
