BY THE
WAY...
By DORIS ARMFIELD
Washington, Oct. 23. — Last
week I was ridiculing a state
ment made by someone up here
that we would have snow with
in three weeks, but I went to
bed last night Jplly expecting
to wake this morning and see a
coat of white outdoors. All
day yesterday the sky was
gray—typical snow sky—and
the temperature was almost
low enough for snow. Tha
weatherman fooled me though.
It is much warmer this morn
ing, and instead of snow we
have rain.
There is at least one “poll”
in which Governor Thurmond
leads the presidential ticket.
To introduce an element of
competition in our class at
school, the teacher assigned
each student a “candidate.”
Each day we are given a cer
tain amount of dictation on
the Stenograph and a limited
'time in which to transcribe
and type the letters which are
dictated. Each letter a student
transcribes accurately means
one vote for the presidential
candidate assigned to that stu
dent. The teacher knew I was
from South Carolina, so need
less to say, I was given the
States’ Rights candidate. As of
yesterday, Thurmond was lead
ing the ticket, with Dewey,
Truman and Wallace next in
line in that order. Somehow,
the students assigned to Wal
lace just can’t seem to get en
thusiastic about “electing” him.
A group of the students were
in a discussion the other day
about the Wtar Between the
States—a subject which inevi-
taoly comes up when there is
at least one Rebel and one
Yankee in a crowd. One of
the Northerners said “I often
wonder how much of the ar
gument about the Civil War
it serious ancLhow much is kid
ding . . . whether the South
erners are actually still resent
ful about the war.”
■My reply was that it had
never occurred to me to be re
sentful about something that
happened in the past; that I
thought this was true of most
Southerners; and that it is dis
cussed so much because for
some reason, it is just a natur
al subject to bring up when
a person from above the Ma
son JJixon line meets one from
below.
“But you Southerners never
forget it,” the first party ar
gued. That may be true, and
it may be true that in some
parts of the South, those por
tions so completely ruined by
Sherman’s march, bitterness
against th e North may be firm
ly embedded in the minds of
children from the time they
are old enough to understand
anything until the time they
are through school. I believe
that such cases are -exception
al.. but I don’t think the South
ever will completely forget a'
war which so changed a mode
of life. This discussion remind
ed me of a United Press story
I saw recently, datelined In
dependence, Mo.:
“Mrs. Marvin Thompson has
found a letter written by her
father, George Washington
Thomas, while he was marching
through Georgia with Sherman’s
troops in the Civil War.
“We marched through Georg
ia. South Carolina, and North
Carolina,” he wrote. “Wfe hav-
n’t had much fighting to do be
cause we drove the Rebs before
us like sheep.
‘•When we captured the capi
tal of South Carolina, I never
saw such destruction in my life.
I don’t believe there were 50
houses left in the city. The
Rebs left in the evening and
that night the boys went in and
commenced* burning.
‘The officers could not stop
it. Hundreds of women and
children were turned out of
doors without anything to eat
or wear.
“I think South Carolina will
remember this war as long as

I think the driver of the bus
on which I ride to school each
morning was beginning to be
afraid to stop for me. Each day
wjien I get one the bus he cur
iously eyed that “little box”
I carry. Yesterday, when I
was ready to get off, he said
“don’t forget your little box.”
I thought he must be curious
about it so I asked him if he
wondered what it was I was
carrying in that box each day.
He confessed that he had been
about to die of curiosity. I
explained to him that it was
my Stenograph, that I was go
ing to school, and that I took
it home each night to practice.
“Well,” he said, “that is cer
tainly a load off my mind!”
I wonder if he thought I was
carrying around an atom bomb
or something?

-Notice
Women VoterJ
This is an appeal to the wo
men voters of Newberry coun
ty to go to th e polls on next
Tuesday and vote. Even though
you may feel that your vote
is only one, stiH the responsi
bility for helping to insure good
government is yours. Hereto
fore very few of us have been
bothered to vote^in the general
election: but this year the sit
uation is entirely different and
with a large vote by the wo
men of South Carolina for the
States’ Rights ticket, we can
show tlie National Democratic
party that South Carolina is op
posed to hving its internal af
fairs policed from Washington.
A vote for Truman electors
means just this.
If you have a Registration
ticket dated within the last
ten years, talce it to the polls,
but you do not have to have)
a tax receipt.
Be sure that the ticket which
you get at the voting precinct
has the name of Eugene Blease
on it. There will be no name
of any candidate for president
on the ticket, but only the
names of the eight South Car
olina electors, headed by Judge
Blease. The country will be
watching South Carolina next
Tuesday so let us show what
the women of Newberry coun
ty can do to make the result
outstanding in the state.
