The following is taken from The Bulletin of the Cl amber of Com merce and is from the annual ad dress of President A. P. Salley. Mr. Salley has put his finger on the bottleneck of Newberry’s progress: “We want more homes, more buildings for business, more in dustries,- more payrolls, but be fore we can have any of these we must have the facilities (water and sewage) to take care of them. We have reach ed the limit of our present wa ter and sewage facilities, we have outgrown them. The lack of these facilities is now hold ing up the building of private homes, the expansion of indus try, and progress in general. There are many other things that we need and that we will have to have as time and pro gress move on, but these facili ties are the basic need upon which real progress depends; the thing that will have to be done if Newberry (the City of Friendly Folks) expects to Grow and Progress. Let us look to the future—let us plan —let us put first things first— let us not just try to keep up with others—let us set a pace for others to follow—let us Grow.” The Newberry Dairy Co-op wish es to express appreciation for the patient consideration given them in gettin gtheir new plant in opera tion. Every effort is being made to correct mistakes and eliminate con fusion occurring from the change over. The management states that due to breakdown of their hooding machine, bottles have not been capped as planned, but expect to do so as soon as the machine can be repaired. The management said: “It is our sincere desire to give the public the best service and the best milk possible. There seems to be some misunderstanding of the source of the milk supply being used in our plant. We assure you that the milk being used in our plant is all Grade A. If there is any question at any time as to the quality of the milk, we suggest that you get in touch with your County and City Health unit, as we are operat ing under their supervision. “We appreciate any constructive criticism. We hope you won’t mind calling 65-W and reporting any errors or changes you desire in your orders.” The public is invited to visit and inspect the new plant.
