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.

Lake Park.
Greenwood, Jan. 17—A $45,-
000 program of permanent im
provements has been outlined
for Greenwood State Park dur
ing the next fiscal year.
The program was approved
here Monday by members of
the parks advisory cammittee of
the Lower Piedmont District
but actual construction is de
pendent on funds made avail
able by the legislature.
INCLUDED IN the new fea
tures planned for Greenwood
State Park are a bathhouse,
$13,000; beach improvement and
swimming dock, $3,000; seven
family vacation cabins,- $25,000;
play field, $1,000.
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.
The bachelor’s a cagey guy,
And has a lot of fun;
He sizes all the cuties up
And never Mrs. one!

chopped into smaller pieces and
washed again. 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.”
