LOCAL DEPUTY AIDS IN ARREST Two men are under arrest in North Carolina and other mem bers of a two-state safe-cracking ring are being ssought in connec tion with the recent robbery of the Prosperity Drug store, Lieut. J. P. Strom of the State (Law Enforcement division said today. Lieutenant Strom said the ring was believed to have been re sponsible for drug store robberies from Asheville, N. C., to Swan sea, S. C., concentrating largely on stored narcotics. He said North Carolina officers reported that the two men arrest ed in that state had a “bushel of dope” in their possession. Lieutenant Strom said he work ed on the case w r ith Deputy Sheriff J. C. Neal of Newberry county and was asking Detective Capt. L. C. Williams of the Co lumbia city police to help deter mine whether the ring was re sponsible for recent drug store robberies in Columbia. Sheriff Tom M. Fellers of New berry county asked the State Law Enforcement division for as sistance in the investigation after a safe in the Prosperity Drug store, operated by Dr. C. K. Wheeler, was pried open last Wednesday night, and a quantity of narcotics, cash and merchan dise stolen. Strom said he and Neal went to North Carolina after receiving reports that two men had been arrested there on suspicion of im plication in the Prosperity rob bery. He said the men were booked as John Edward Skipper, 30, and James Pickelsimer, 22. Skipper, arrested gt Gastonia, is now in jail at Asheville, he said. Pickel simer was jailed at Gastonia. Strom said Neal was swearing out South Carolina warrants for them today. Strom said Skipper had been on probation from the federal court on a charge of violating the narcotics act. Pickelsimer also was on probation, now revoked, he said, on an assault charge. At least eight men are to be members of the ring. Storm said, and may have pulled at least five jobs in South Carolina. He said it appeared that their usual practice was to “case” a store, come to South Carolina in high-powered cars, pull the job, then speed back to North Caro lina. There is at least one South Carolinian in the ring, it is be lieved. Two members of the ring, he said, had been identified as having been in the vicinty of Prosper ity when the drug store was rob bed. He said the ages of the men in the ring ranged from 20 to 30. On their last few trips into South Carolina. Strom said, the safe-crackers had traveled in a black two-door sedan, which he described as a 1949 Mercury, bear ing North Carolina license plates. MRS.

TWO BUILDING PERMITS ISSUED LAST WEEK Two repair permits were issued during the past week to Henry Eddy for general repairs to dwell ing on Purcell street for the amount of $500. and to Oliva Bridges for repairs to dwelling on Cromer street for $400. The Day of Decision is Next Tuesday If the spirit of fair play ob tains on November 7th (next Tuesday) the School Reorganiza tion ' plan will be defeated. Americans have always believ ed in fair play and we do not believe that the people of our populous centers are going to vote to saddle those in unpro ductive areas with greatly in creased taxes. Those of us who have rackets In town are in a better position to pay extra taxes because the opportunity exists here to wheedle a few dollars here and there. But those who dig their living from the ground must get any extra money from sweat and not from outwitting the other fellow. Those In the cities who would impose extra taxes upon our rural people simp ly have no feeling for their fel- lowmen; they do not care that women and girl children have to scatter manure, hoe and pick to get money to meet an obligation some one makes who sits in the shade. So far as the rural sections are concerned many of them are going to vote soldily against this makeshift Schoql Plan; they are going to do it here just like they did in Greenville county, where it was roundly defeated. Although the rural areas will be the chief sufferers they will not long suffer alone. Under this plan taxes will be raised in every school district in Newbery county and it will be done by a very few men. You will not kno^rf from year to year WHAT your taxes will be for you will not have one body (the Delegation) deciding the tax levy, you will have TWO bodies. The Delegation will fix the levy for all other pur poses but the County Board will fix the school levy. If you want to open your pocket book and tot them dig in, almost unrestrained, just vote for the School plan and you will certainly get your our textile people will turn thumbs down on this School plan. If the school people will pro duce a School Plan which will GUARANTEE good salaries to our teachers; one which will look toward building up rather than destroying our small schools, then we will go along and we be lieve such a plan would be well received. People of the poor dis tricts would not object to paying If they get somethng for their money. So far as we have been able to learn no thought has ever been given to building up small schools.) There seems to be general rejoicing among the larg er schools when a small one fails. We have some good school men and women in Newberry county but they have been “thinking in the wrong direc tion.” They have not realized just. how barren a community becomes without its school. Pro gress, so-called, is not always a virtue. A solid, conservative rural people could in time of stress be worth more than the “Progress” of a century. America has always boasted of this back log of honest, down-to-earth peo ple. Take all that is spiritually good away from them and they will become as wild-eyed and morally irresponsible as the rest of us. Rural America has given this country its great men and women; men and women who never “progressed” from the fundamentals without which no people can be great; and these men and women were and are the products of the small schools. We realize that this is old- fashioned talk, and that there is little market for such in this belter-' skelter world, but deep down In your heart (if you ever had a thought in your life on a higher fevel than a football game) you know that the time is coming in this greedy unionized, organized world when we will look back wishes. - t. iJf ks.: In Newberry and id Whltdlfir# many mill people have recently purchased homes. In many In stances mothers are working alongside fathers in the mill to pay for those homes. They are making sacrifices to have a place to live. Are we going to saddle these deserving people with ex tra taxes, right here at a time when they are paying more in come taxes and will have to pay EVEN MORE another year. There is such a thing as taxing ^ people beyond endurance, and this is the sort of thing which makes Communists. We believe the aimple daya as the golden lys; when It will be a solid comfort to know that out in the grass roots there are people with their feet on solid ground. So much for the sermon, before the benediction we ask that you go to the polls on Tuesday next and scratch out the word “YES” on the small ballot which will be given you. You will be doing yourself a service and you will be showing your sympathy for those in the poor districts who are heavily outnumbered, and who stand to be loaded down with taxes without equal rep resentation. PROSPERITY ITEMS A mariage of interest to Pros- peritians Is that of Miss Patricia Luther of Prosperty and New York City and Mr. Harry Kisle- vitz of New York City which took place on October 15, at Yonkers, N.

One barrel a year usually did us. I think it weighted some thing like 300 pounds. We kept it in a dark corner of a closet in our parents’ bedroom. I think the reason they put it there was we wouldn’t see It. Then we wouldn’t think to bother It very often. But back there in the stone hills of the Dutch Fork, candy was far from plentiful. And they had to watch us about eating sugar. We would often get it from the sugar dish there on the table, but were told to stay out of that closet. Aside from eating too much of it, we would spill It on the floor and you know what a mess that makes. And sugar is one of toe easiest ■ things to spill anyway. At times the sugar dish was empty, and we had the strong l urge for something sweet. Then we watched for our chance to slip In the closet to the sugar barrel. If the folks were too s near,, I would get a handfigfc^ hide behind the hanging clothes, and eat it in there. But the tell tale crackling of sugar on the floor would soon thereafter be tray my act. The stuff just would spill, no matter how careful I was. One day I slipped in there and | reached down In the dark tor 1 some sugar. I got hold of a lump. I thought that it wouldn’t ^ spill so bad and maybe I’d g0t# by. I lit into eating It. It was the nastiest thing I ever tasted. That broke me from eatng it in M the dark. I never understood then what the trouble was. But I have since figured that a cat had been in there. •, >4 BIRTHDAYS Mrs. J. C. Hsrmon and 1 Mazie Abrams, Nov. 4; T. Riley, Nov. 5; Mrs. J. C.
