BY THE WAY... By DORIS ARMFIELD Washington, Nov. 20 — Most of you will know, either from seeing me in Newberry Armis tice Day weekend or reading last week’s Sunpaper, that there was a good reason for the absence of this column from last week’s issue of the Sun. At the time I usually write the column, I was at GildSrcrest, and even though the lawn was covered with leaves. I didn’t have to rake them! It was so good to be back in the City of Friendly Folks, although I couldn’t help but notice that the “Welcome to Newberry” sign still wasn’t up on the Columbia - Greenville highway. I suppose the Cham ber of Commerce has been too busy concentrating on the Corn- unity Chest Drive to think about that sign. I talked for a moment with Secretary Cliff Graham, who told me that al ready 85 percent of the goal for the Drive had been met, and they wer e expecting to go over the top in the next few days, so chances are that by time you read this, the Com munity Chest will be an estab lished thing in Newberry, and a good thing too. I was sorry I couldn’t get back down there before all the leaves fell from the trees, al though I was thankful to be home at all. My friends who came along, all of whom are also struggling to be steno- typists someday, were all “damnyankees.” Two of them had never been in the South, and they seemed much im pressed with our part of the country. Some of the ideas they had before going down there amused me. After our return to Washington, one of them said “why. no one seemed to resent the fact that I was a Northerner.” What propa ganda do they feed the North- erers dbout the South, I won der? Every now and,, then I go on a rampage aoout something and one oymy pet peeves is to see beautiful trees unnecessari ly chopped down. The editor of the Arlington Sun had this to say in his column last week: “For sake of the record, we are impelled to register a very specialized protest against the School Board’s use of the for mer Y.WLC.A. Vacation Lodge site in Cherrydale for a junior high. Our reason: the trees on that land are too lovely to be cut down. “We are fully aware that this protest will be held ir relevant. and immaterial, but, as we said, for the sake of the record some one should speak for those trees. On the seven acres of land some ten or twelve homes could be built. Or possibly only six or seven. But the best of the trees could b e saved thereby. Perhaps we should send each member of the School Board a copy of Mr. Kilmer’s famous verse.” Also from the Arlington Sun, a columnist. Jay Oliver, relates this story propos to Armistice Day: • Several years ago the young son of a Washington couple ac companied his parents to Ar lington Cemeter. He had heard them talking about the Un known Soldier but the whole thing was a bit vague in his mind. When he saw the guard pacing up and down at the tomb he was fascinated. ‘There’s the Unknown Soldier!’ he exclaimed. After watching him for a while, he turned to his parents and said: ‘If they don’t know who he is why doesn’t somebody ask him?’ ” That story reminds me of an equally inane one that I asked Mother one-upon-a-time. I must have been all of three or four years old, and in those days, an airplane was a novelty and everyone rushed out in the yard when one passed over. I can remember that all air planes were “Lindbergh.” While we were living in Saluda, “Lindbergh” passed over one day and Mother rushed me out on the porch to see. After watching the plane for a few moments, I asked Mother why Lindbergh had his feet hanging out? Of course what I saw were the wheels of the plane, but I was convinced that the man was flying up there with his feet outside. The political situation in Washington has somewhat cool ed off, and little is heard on the subject except for occasion al guesses as to who will be in the next Presidential cabi net, or when the Trumans will move to the Blair House while, the White House is being re paired. Much talk of already, though, is the inauguration of President Truman on January 20. It seems that this will be one of the most extensive in augural celebrations ever to be held in Washington, with a full week of inaugural activities preceding the actual event. Probably every hotel in Wash ington has had hundreds of cancellations and new reser vations since November 2. Most of the hotels wer e booked up for inaugural week, before the election. by Republicans. I don’t imagine manv of them will care to see Mr. Truman take the oath. FEWER PEOPLE woi^ld be in debt if they didn’t spend what their friends THINK they make.

He had been in declining health for about two months and was told oy doctors about three weeks ago there was no chance for his survival. “Johnnie,” it is said, took the fateful news calmly and sought to have as many of his friends possible visit with him during his re maining days. Johnnie Kinard was one of the most thoughtful of persons —thoughtful of young and old, black and white. His courtesy knew no race nor creed. He was .a friend to dll. A great lover of flowers and gifted with the “green thumb” to an extraordinary degree, Johnnie distributed his flowers among those in sorrow or in beds of pain. He had a highly developed sense of the beauti ful and never tired of work among his plants and flowers. It has been a long time since any death in Newberry has occasioned as much genu ine sorrow as that of Johnnie Kinard. His humbleness made him loveable: his cheerfulness gave a lift to the sagging spirit. Johnnie Kinard was 51 years of age, was born in this city where he spent his entire life, except for the periods spent in World Wars I and II. A banker by profession, Johnnie was employed by the Wiseman hotel at the time of his death. He was the only sqn of the- late John M. Kinard, well- known banker, and Margaret Land Kinard. Survivors include his mother, and three sisters: Mrs. Jos. Keitt and Mrs. John Norris, of Newberry and Mrs. Arthus McCarrell of Lancaster. Four nieces also survive. They are: Miargaret Land and Anna Coe Keitt, Margaret McCarrell, and Elizabeth Norris. Funeral services were held Sunday afternoon, November 21 conducted by Rev. J. Aubrey Estes and Rev. Neil E.
