1 VOL. 10; NO. 49 ' NEWBERRY, SOUTH CAROLINA, FRIDAY, APRIL 23, 1948 $1:50 PER ANNUM By The Way - - - By DORIS ARMFIELD Mrs. John Livingston has an interesting hobby ol making quilts. I went out by her home on Charles street last week, and saw the clothes line full of the brightly colored quilts, so I stopped to look them over. “I make them in my spare time,” said Mrs. Livingston, “but the trouble is that when I start one, I don’t want to do any thing else until I finish it.” Among her unusual quilts are two which are made entirely from stockings—one from old silk stockings, the other from cotton socks. She has patch- work quilts, and friendship quilts, made from patches of cloth given to her by her friends. Among the colorful designs are a Bleeding Heart pattern, China plate, basket design, Dutch dolls, Old Lady’s Fancy, and a sunflower design which was my favorite. The yellow petals of the sunflower are placed in the center of a six pointed star. All of the work on the quilts is done by hand. Mrs. Livingston also has a church quilt, made by the la dies of Mayer Memorial church. For each of the over 600 names on the quilt, a small amount was paid to raise money for the church. “I did a lot of work on that quilt,” Mrs. Livingston told me, “and when it was put up for sale, my daughter, Mrs. Geo. E. Stone, bought it and gave it back to me.” Mrs. Livingston makes quilts for her own amusement; some of them she gives to members of her family, some she keeps, and others she sells. I tried to tattk her into selling me a darling baby-bed quilt with ducks on it. 1 wanted it for Billy, Jr., (whose appearance is scheduled for sometime in June), but that one belonged to her daughter who wouldn’t part with it. I don’t blame her —I wouldn’t have either. I usually glance over the news releases which fill up the mail box each day, and if I see a familiar name, I look at it more closely ... so when I notice Mackie Quave’s name in a WPS release this week I read it again. I have not had the pleasure of meeting Mr. Quave (whose name fascinates me) but I had occasion to talk with him often on the phone while I was working for the VA in Colum bia and he was with another radio station there. To get back to the release, it seems that Mr. Quave, who is chief announcer at Columbia’s WIS, will announce the nationwide broadcast of the Southern Sym phony orchestra tomorrow. The orchestra, under the di rection of Carl Bamberger, will be heard on NBC’s “Orchestras of the Nation” series, and the program begins at 3:00 p. m. The broadcast is part of the annual Columbia Music Festival, and will be originated from the stage of the Township audito rium through the facilities of WIS. Columbia is the smallest city in the nation entering an or chestra in the series—a definite feather in the caps of the musi cians and staff of the Columbia Music Festival, says the WIS re lease. I haven’t heard the Sou thern Symphony sinoe it was under the direction of Hans Schweiger, but I understand that it will do credit to a city much larger than Columbia. Sunday, May 2, has been designated as Rural Youth Sun day, and on that afternoon, the 4-H council of Newberry, con sisting of the 4-H clubs in the various communities, will pre sent a Vesper service at Mar garet Hunter Park, The pro gram will be based on the sub ject “Creating Better Homes Today for a More Responsible Citizenship Tomorrow.” More information about the program will be published next week. CHURCH WOMEN COUNCIL MEET The Newbery Council of Church Women will meet at St. Luke’s Episcopal church on Tuesday afternoon at 4:00 p. m. All women of the city are cordially invited to attend. Last Rites Held For Mrs. Carwile Mrs. Mary Josephine Carwile, one of Newberry’s oldest and most beloved citizens, passed away at her home on Calhoun street early Tuesday morning. She had celebrated her 90th birthday anniversary on Decem ber 12, and was the second odd est citizen of the city both in years' of age and years of resi dence. Before her marriage to William H. Carwile on May 23, 1877, she was Miss Mary Peoples, daugh ter of the late Mr. and Mrs. J. O. Peoples of Newberry. She was born here in 1857, and spent her entire life in New berry, where she had a host of friends. Mrs. Carwile was the oldest member of Aveleigh Presby terian church, and held the re cord for having belonged to the church longer than any other member in the history of Ave leigh. At her advanced age, she was keen and alert, and until the past winter, seldom missed a church service. Because of the inclement weather of the win ter, she was able to attend only a few times, the last time being on Easter Sunday, after which she became seriously ill. Besides being a member of the Woman’s Auxiliary of the church, and of Circle No. 2, she she was an honorary member of the Drayton Rutherford Chap ter, United Daughters of the Confederacy; the Jasper Chap ter, Daughters of the American Revolution, and of the Fort nightly club, a social organi zation. Mrs. Carwile lived through four wars, and during the two World Wars, she knitted many garments for servicemen. An interesting conversationalist, she kept abreast of the news by reading daily and Amnty news papers, church publications and current events magazines. Her main pleasure in her later years was visits from her friends, and although she had outlived all of her contemporaries, she had many younger friends whose kind attentions have made her last years more pleasant. Mrs. Carwile was the mother of three children; Miss Fannie Mae Carwile, who survives; the late Miss Gertrude Carwile and the late John Peoples Carwile. Funeral services were con ducted Thursday afternoon at 3:00 o’clock at Aveleigh Presby terian church by Rev. Neil E. Truesdale, pastor of the church; and Rev. M. C. Dendy of Or lando. Fla., Rev. C. A. Calcote of Birmingham, Ala., and Dr. E. D. Kerr of Decatur, Ga„ all for mer pastors of the deceased. In terment followed in Rosemont cemetery. Honorary pallbearers were Dr. James C. Kinard, Z. F. Wright, Judge Eugene S. Blease, Hon. T. H. Pope, Brice Waters, T. P. Johnson, Henry Fellers, H. M. Bryson, P. N. Abrams, Duncan Johnson, Albert McCaughrin, Dr. R. A. Goodman, and the elders and deacons of Aveleigh church. Active pallbearers were John F. Clarkson, John Norris, J. L. Keitt, J. M. Kinard, John Chap pells, and Jesse Dickert.

You are young and fit, that’s the way to begin. Grin, and the world grins back. Frown and the world grows black. Keep that grin on all the time, Just keep grinning, we do not mind. Happiness makes our lives worth while. So put on a great big smile. One that lasts from mom ’til night, Then go on grinning, with all your might. If that smile comes from deep within Happiness for you will soon begin. Grin right on, if you are smart. And that grin comes from the heart. You have a place right at the top Where others seem to make a flop. Faces are good mirrors for that grin. You will see it reflected back again. Grin at troubles, do not sigh, Grin, and trouble will pass you by. Grin right on, do not stop. Grin in sunshine or in rain. Grin, and others will do the same. REGULAR ARMY ENLISTMENTS David F.

NEWBERRY GIRLS AT PRESS CONENTION Two Newberry girls took part in the 12th annual convention of the South Carolina scholastic press association in Greenville this week. They were Miss Joan Dominick. secretary of the school press organization, and Miss Betty Mayer, who will con duct a student discussion class today. Ray A. Furr of Charlotte ad dressed the opening session, and Rev. Oran Zaebst of Greenville will be banquet speaker to night, _ ,_i ia’ Postal Service M0LL0H0N To Be Extended As a result of recommenda tions made by an inspector of the post office department, after a survey of business in the local post office in March, service will be expanded so as to give bet ter postal service to Newberry citizens. George K. Dominick, post master, stated today that in order to extend the city delivery service, one full time city car rier, and one auxiliary route of six hours a day will be added to the existing service, bring ing the total to six regular city routes instead of five, plus the six additional hours of the auxiliary route. The additional service to be rendered is as follows: 1. College street extension, as far as Joye’s filling station, in eluding Trent street above the radio station and back to New berry College, where the vete rans housing buildings on Luther street will now be ser ved; also the portion of Evans street which does not now have city mail delivery. 2. Pike Circle (Main street extension) as far as Copeland street across to Johnstone street. This includes an extension of service from the corner of Hunt and Johnstone to Copeland and Johnstone, and also includes Turner street. 3. The now unserved portion of Benedict street (off Main, be side the residence of Dr. Z. C. Lynch) and Adelaide street (Columbia Highway) to corp orate limits. 4. “Starvation Hill,” including Morgan and Hill streets and the upper end of Drayton street. 5. Cannontown, from Pauline street to Sunset Lane, beyond Paysinger’s store on the Green wood highway, and O’Neal street extension from Pauline street. 6. Vincent street extension. 7. Pope Circle, near Helena. The increased delivery service will be of benefit not only to the new homes on the route, but it will assure two deliveries a day on all city routes. In the past, when the mail has been heavy, it has been impossible for some of the carriers to make more than one city delivery a day. Under the new system, two de liveries will be made each day except Saturday, the morning service to be completed before 1:30. There will be the - usual Saturday morning delivery. In the post office, there will be added a superintendent of mails. This will give additional service at the post office win dows, since another clerk will be available for substitute work. Because of the expansion, more funds will be needed, and in the effort to economize, the post office will eliminate one hour’s service on Saturday. When the expanded program goes into ef fect, the stamp windows, money order and registry windows will be closed at noon instead of at 1:00 p. m. according to Mr. Dominick. The postal inspector recom mended that this program be put into effect on May 1st; how ever, the postmaster stated that it will be impossible to secure and train additional personnel by that time. Temporary em ployees will be hired until the Civil service commission holds an examination and sets up a register from which permanent personnel may be employed. It is hoped that the full expansion program will be underway with in a few months. The public is asked to co operate with the post office in this undertaking. Mrs. Fred Sheffield of Ak ron. Ohio, and her son, Wilbur H. Sheffield, who is a student at Bob Jones University in Greenville, spent several days last week with their uncle and aunt, Mr. and AJrs. W. O. Wil son.
