BY THE WAY... By DORIS ARMFIELD Washington, Nov. 27.—Turkey Day has come and gone in Washington, and my turkey dinner consisted of a salami and cheese sandwich. I trust all of you fared better. It isn’t that there wasn’t tur key in the offing, because there was all kinds of turkey. I had three very Isind invitations to have Thanksgiving dinner with friends, including one from Lt. Comdr. and Mrs. Robert Hayne Hare and family, of Saluda. I had already accepted one of the invitations, so Had to turn down the others. I once tried eating two turkey dinners, and it took the rest of the week end to recuperate so I decided never to try again. Instead of loafing on Thanks giving day, I decided to do some, studying in the morning, so on I went with my machine for special dictation practice. Comes the time for me to call my friends to come take me to dinner, I had lost the telephone number. I frantically searched everywhere, and couldn’t find it. I hurried home, searched further—no sign of the tele phone number anywhere. By time I got home, Thanksgiving dinner was over at the house and the turkey was well muti- , la ted. I was too disgusted to be hungry by that time any way, so I decided to do my laundry. It wasn’t long till the gnawing feeling started in my tummy, so I went foraging in the refrigerator, and the best I could come up with was a salami and cheese sandwich and a glass of milk. If any of you have an old left over turkey drumstick or “pully- bone,’’ just get my address from the Sunoffice and send it up. When I first came up here, -time passed so quickly, but now that it will be only a few weeks longer until I’ll be com ing back to Newberry, time is dragging. At least I hope it will only be a few weeks long er. I called the Seaboard rail way this morning to make re servations to come home, and find that everything is sold out for two weeks before Christmas. I” be home for Christmas, though, if I have to hitchhike. I would like to add a word to what was written in last week’s Sunpaper about the death of Johnnie Kinard. John nie always seemed' in the best of health when I was in New berry, so I was amazed to find on my visit home twp weeks ago that he was so seriously ill. Newberry—and College street in particular, won’t seem the same without Johnnie. I don’t believe I have ever known any one with a more pleasant per sonality, or with a more friend ly and always willing to help nature than he possessed. Be ing the unassuming person he was, I don’t believe Johnnie realized just how. many people thought so much of him, and mourn his sudden illness and death. One of the things I always wanted to try to do something about when I was in Newberry but just never got around to was the disreputable condition of the police headquarters, city jail, etc. I was pleased to see in last week’s Sunpaper that someone finally has realized that the place needed a work ing-over, and that work will begin to heighten it up a little. I know that Chief Dowd and his force must be happy about it. Business Women Hear Harmon The Business and Professional Women’s Club of Newberry held its regular monthly meet ing on November 23, 1948 in the Junior High School Build ing. A delicious turkey din ner was served in the school lunch room by the Parent- Teacher Association to club members and their guests. After the dinner a short busi ness session was presided over by the president of the club, Miss Annie Lou Fleniken, while the guests were taken on a tour over the newly remodelea building by Mr. R. E. Beck, Principal of the school. After the business session members and their guests assembled in the School auditorium for the program. ‘Miss Margaret Pay- singer rendered a vocal num ber, “The Golden Key,” and was accompanied on the piano by Miss Betty Rice. Superin tendent P. K. Harmon was the guest speaker of the evening. He gave a very informative re port of South Carolina Educa tion Survey Committee, deal ing with facts, problems and needs of the public schools of this state. Everyone interested in the progress of South Caro lina should become familiar with the reports of this survey committee. FOUND—Stray dog. Owner may get same bv identifying and paying for this ad.

COATS COMPLETES 23 MONTHS OVERSEAS VOL 11—NO. 29 + NEWBERRY, SOUTH CAROLINA,FRIDAY, DECEMBER 3, 1948 + $1.50 PER YEAR Community 1 Chest Officers Elected H. O. Long Wins Bureau Prize What People You Know Are Doing Real Estate Transfers G. K. Dominick, posmaster, said that the lopal postoffice played reluctant host to a large quantity of other people’s holi day mail last year, because of the faulty addressing and points out that careless address ing spelis trouble for the send er, as well as extra headaches for postal clerks at a season when they’re already working around the clock to keep holi day mail moving. So if you want to keep your beautiful warm-hearted Christ mas cards from going to rest in the dead letter office this year, said Mr. Dominick, you better heed the warning about correct addressing and mailing. The Postmaster asks that you write Newberry, S. C., on all cards to be mailed in the city instead of “City” because if the card should happen to slip in the wrong pouch it may end up in the dead letter office. As you know all cards sent by First Class mail requires a three cent stamp. If you mail your cards with 1%-cent stamp, be sure to keep your tongue off the flap, because third-class mail must not be sealed and must not contain personal mes sages. Assistant postmaster, Jack Chappells tells me that he has already started changing the pen points in the postoffice and invites! you to come in and address your Christmas cards at an early date Building permits issued by building inspector Sam Beam, since November 15: J Frank Miller, repairs to dwelling on Crosson street, $250.
