- NEWBERRY, SOUTH CAROLINA, FRIDAY, APRIL 30, 1948 $1:50 PER ANNUM VOL. 10; NO. 50 By The Way - - - By DORIS ARMFIELD The paging of Mrs. M. J. Car- wile list week left a note of sadness in the hearts of many, for she held the admiration, respect and love of all who knew her. She often told of how much she enjoyed the visits of her friends. I don’t believe it ever oocured to her that her friends received as much, or more pleasure from, visits than she did. An hour spent with Mrs. Oarwile was an hour of interesting and intelligent con versation. usually on the most up to date events, for even at the age of 90, she was never satisfied to retreat within her memory and let things of the present go by unnoticed. She would reminisce occasionally. Not long ago, when I was talk ing with her, she let her mem ory go back as far as the War Between the States, when she remembered the soldiers march ing through Newberry. At that time, she said “Dot, I’ve lived through four wars - t hope I won’t have to live through another one.” Besides her home, Mrs. Oar wile had two other main in terests; her church and her many friends. Only recently, she had been made an honorary life member of the Woman’s Auxiliary of Aveleigh Presby terian church. For this life membership, the Auxiliary do nates a sum to help in field work of the church, and this amount is presented in honor of the person who is given the life membership. Mrs Oarwile had an unwaver ing faith, and to her, death was nothing to fear. One would do well to emulate her life. I was disturbed to notice several weeks ago that the grass at the Water and Light plant on Nance street was growing out of bounds, and the grounds were looking extremely untidy. I asked Bill Wise why the place wasn’t kept up, and got that familiar answer, “Can’t get any body to do it.” Passing there Sunday, I saw that the grass had been cut; rhododendron and other flowers were in bloom and once again to Water and Light plant grounds are one of Newberry’s beauty spots as they have been for many years. Thanks, Bill. Well, the Christmlas lights are still up, but at least I’ve found that I’m not the only one who objects to them. Since mention of the subject was made in this column two weeks ago, so many people have said “I hope you get someboby to do something about those lights - imagine, Christmas lights in May!” That’s the way I feel, too. The Chamber of Commerce was able to put on a courtesy campaign last year and award monetary prizes; they found the money somewhere to put on a successful Christmas parade; they were able to scrape to gether enough pennies to out do any town around in the way of annual banquets. Wbnder what all those visitors thought of the progressiveness of New berry when they glanced up and saw that four months after the holidays, the Christmas lights were still in evidence? I know the Chamber can dig up the money somewhere to get those lights down. If you are as in terested in this project as I why not do something about it? Several weeks ago, I wanted to get some information from one of the teachers at Junior high school. The telephone book didn’t show a listing, so I eall- the operator, “There isn’t a tele phone at Junior high school”^ I was told. I don’t know whether it’s a shortage of telephone lines, or a shortage of funds, or what, but it certainly seems to me there should be a telephone in all of the city schools. What do the teachers do in case of an emer gency? I know that school chil dren quite often become ill while in classes, and at times, it might be serious. In a case like that, does the teacher have to leave her classroom unattend ed while she goes to find a tele phone? I called the high school for the information I wanted, and was unable to get it with out a delay of some time. I’m sure the parents of school child ren would like to know that in case of some emergency, help could be secured without need less delay. And I am equally sure it would save time and trouble for the memlbers af the school faculty to transact necess ary business. Telephones are so much a part of everyday living that it didn’t occur to me that it would be impassible to get in touch with the teachers or the children in any of the schools without making a trip to the school. This is just my opinion, of course, but I believe there are others who might feel the same way. If you have seen the little Public Invited To May Day The annual May Day Exer cises of Newberry College will take place on the College cam pus at five o’clock on the after noon of Saturday, May 1st. when Miss Mary Katherine Black of Monck’s Oomer, will be crowned queen of the May by President James C.
