I handed the driv er fifty cents and he gave me change for a dollar!” —Country Gentleman.

CAKOIIIA • A TRIBUTE TO ZACCHEUS FRANKLIN WRIGHT For more than twenty-five years, the late Honorable Zac- cheus Franklin Wright served as a member of the Board ..of Directors and Truestees of The Rosemont Cemetery Association of Newberry; for several years, he was Vice-President and la ter, upon the death of Colonel Walter H. Hunt, he was elected to the office of President, which he continuously held until the day of his death, October 26th, 1949. When stricken with ser ious illness, he felt it his duty to surrender the office of Pres ident, and tendered his resig nation. His associates on the Board, realizing that even if 'Mr. Wright could not be active as he had theretofore been, felfc so strongly that his advices and assistance would continue to be of great value declined to ac cept his tendered resignation. During all the days of his con nection with the Association, he was ever interested in its welfare and the full accom plishment of its main object, the care of the resting places of those who had passed into the Great Beyond. In his ser vices, he gave greatly, loving ly and generously of his time and means that those who were sleeping the last sleep might not be forgotten, but affection ately remembered by their lov ed ones, neighbors and friends. His life was always such as to give full evidence of his reali zation that at some time that which was mortal of him would lie in Rosemont Cemetery, along with the remains of the people of Newberry with whom he had lived and for whom he had labored through all the years of his life. And, too, that life was so lived that he look ed forward without fear to the day of its mortality should be ended, for he believed and trusted fully in the mercy and providence of his God. In his passing, the other members of the Board of Di rectors of The Rosemont Ceme tery Association are reminded, even more than we seemed to ralize during the lifetime of Mr. Wright, of the services and sacrifices he • rendered his fellow members and the Asso ciation. We miss at all times, and especially in ©ur meetings, his wise cousels, always for the benefit of Rosemont. We are constantly reminded of his sin cere interest^ displayed by both his words and acts, in all things sought to be done in memory of our beloved dead. And, now, because of what we have recit ed heretofore, THE BOARD OF DIRECTORS OF ROSEMONT CEMETERY ASSOCIATION DO HEREBY RESOLVE, that a page in our minute book be dedicated to the memory of the late Zac- cheus Franklin Wright, and that this tribute of respect be inscribed thereon, hat we give to the people of Newberry, and especially to the members of the family of our deceased friend and co-worker, this ex pression of our deep regret at the passing of a fine man, a Christian gentleman, who loved and served Newberry—and our people so faithfully—so well, so lovingly.

Greenwood, Jan. 17—A $45,- 000 program of permanent im provements has been outlined for Greenwood State Park dur ing the next fiscal year.

HISTORY MfGHT REPEAT From The Pee Dee Advocate— An organizer for the Con gress of Industrial Organizations (far better known as the CIO) has delivered himself of the studied opinion that there was “little sentiment” for Gov. J. Strom Thurmond among the CIO members he had talked with in South Carolina. He elaborated on this state ment by adding that Senator Olin D. Johnston’s voting re cord in congress was “pleasing” to the CIO. If this organizer had given the last senatorial campaign a little study he might have hesitated before giving Olin the “Kiss of Death.” He might have found that Burnet May- bank soundly whipped several opponents in spite of the fever ish opposition to Maybank on the part of the CIO. Could happen again! All these improvements are for the white area. For the colored area a boat landing with barges, gangplank and other facilities, $2,500, and 10 boats for $600 are planned. , The commission of Foresty reported at the meeting that 83,415 white persons and 1,915 Negroes visited during the past fiscal year. R. E. VREELAND, assistant state park director, reported that work during the 1948-49 fiscal year at the local park, lo cated six miles from Ninety Six on Lake Greenwood, in cluded erection of a new pinic shelter, new barges, addition of lights to pinic areas, new pinic tables, road built into park. Most pressing need now is for some road leading to the dock, he said. C. H. Flory, state forester, outlined the entire program of park work. With addition of a park in the Pee Dee area and the proposed Clark Hill develop ment, the system will then be about complete, he said. The Commission will the work to complete its parks before taking on any new ones. Oconee Park is probably the most complete one at the present time, he said. THE ADVISORY committee adopted a resolution asking the advisory group, the S. C. State Park service and the federal park service, to meet at the re quest of the delegations in the counties concerned to work out some plan for developing the Clark Hill area. Mr. and Mrs. S. Nicosia and family of East Orange, N. J., were recent visitors in the home of Mr. Nicosia’s cousin, J. N. Nicosia and Mrs. Nicosia on the Winns boro highway.

I am sure that nothing is ever washed as much as cigarette paper. After the above phase, it un dergoes a bleaching process in chlorine and after that it be comes tan in color. Another dumping and washing for a few hours and the flax is snowy white and looks like masses of bread dough. The flax remains in that state until it is ready to use for mak ing paper when it is dumped into another vat—you guessed it—-washed again and chopped finer, then to the final paper making process. This complicated paper mak- ing^machine is somewhat simi lar to a huge printing press. The flax “dough” is mixed with water, about three per cent flax and 97 per cent water. As the mixture flows through the ma chine the water is removed by heat so that at the end of the end a broad white sheet of pa per appears and is wound onto a roll The paper is inspected as it goes through the machine and if a defect is seen the op erator sticks a little cardboard “flag” in the edge of the roll From the machine the roll goes to the inspection department where it is again inspected and the defects cut out and the pa per pasted back together. After this final inspection the wide rolls are then cut down to cig arette paper size, or other de sired sizes. The small booklets of ciragette papers for “rollings” are made in the plant and the bulk of production to the fac tories making cigarettes. We noticed a number of cartons destined for foreign countries and workers were busy loading cars withe the paper. Ecusta runs 24 hours a day, stopping only twice a year, Christmas and the fourth of July. More than 1200 people are employed. A new celophane plant is to be constructed somewhere on the premises soon, but the ex act location is still secret infor mation. The whole process is secret, and while visitors are taken through, they are first carefully screened. There is a recreation - park near the plant for the employ ees with swimming pool, club house, bowling alleys and other- recreational facilities for com petitive sports among the em ployees of Ecusta. (My feet were a little tierd when it was all over, but the tour was worth it. tt-u se fea tur I understand that a project I started working on in this col umn is finally coming through. I heard last week that town officials has become convinced of the need for a traffic light at the corner of College and Harrington streets and that it will be installed in the‘ near future. I hear also that warn ing blinkers and possibly traf fic lights will be put at other dangerous intersections. It is good to know that city council is getting around something about the traffic situation be fore others are killed at these intersections. ■ - ■■ ■ NAME NUMBER ONE A struggling author had call ed on a publisher to inquire about a manuscript he had sub mitted. “This is quite well written,” admitted the publisher, “but my firm only publishes work by writers with well-known names.” ‘^Splendid!” shouted the call er in great excitement. “My name’s Smith!” QUICK THINKING Removing his shoes, the hus band climbed the stairs, open ed the door of the bedroom, en tered, and closed it after hmi without being detected. Just as he was about to get into bed, his wife, aroused from slumbe^ turned and sleepily said, Ts that you, Fido?” The husband, relating the story later, said, “For once in my life I had real presence of mind. I licked her hand.” *4 MAYER MEMOl LUTHERAN CHURCH Daniel M. Shull, Pastor 10:00 a.m. Sunday School. 11:00 a.m. The Service.
