Southern-grown cabbage, fresh and processed citrus fruits, and eggs are among the foods listed by the U. S. Department of Agri culture as plentiful in the South east for April, Miss Marjorie Davis, county home demonstration agent, said here this week. She says that according to the USDA report cabbage is seasonal ly plentiful in April and that, if recent price trends hold, this food will continue in the budget- buy class for several weeks. Most of the southern cabbage is now coming from Florida and Ala bama, but Georgia and South Garolina will also have cabbage ready for harvest in April. North Carolina’s spring crop should be ready by the last of April of early May. The nation’s ' 117-million-box orange crop accounts for retail markets being well supplied with oranges this year. Southeastern martlets, being within short ship ping distance of Florida groves, should have ample supplies of fresh oranges and grapefruit. Pro cessed citrus products also are in plentiful supply. Broiler production in April is expected to continue at a high level, especially since chick place ments for April broilers were 25 percent greater than last year. Miss Datfis states. Other foods on the April plenti ful list include fish, dates, dried prunes, pecans, almonds, cottage cheese, nonfat dry milk, lard, pea nut butter, and vegetable shorten ing and salad oil.

We had a most wonderful spirit existing in New berry County. Our sons were in the military camps together, they were in hospitals together, they were on ships together, they were is battles together, many of them died together. Yes we here at home had a wonder* ful spirit of working together. We worked at everything neces sary to help our boys together. We had county wide drives of various kinds, U.S.O., Red Cross, the building of a recreational hall at' Newberry College and per haps others. We worked to gether. It was my great privilege to work on all of the various calls along with many others. I walk ed and used my meager three gal lons of gasoline per week to at tend meetings, to solicit money over my community, I am so very proud , of the record of my 30.00 30.00 30.00 30.00 community in those 'days when the people of Newberry, city and county, were working together. Not one time did we fail to go over the top in our drives. Then one day Almighty God answered the prayers of a people that was praying together. Victory came, our boys had won, thank God we had stood by them together. We were so proud of them and wevfelt that we still had not done enough, ‘we met/and talked of the things that we could do to honor them and to let generations yet to come know that we had stood by our boys together. So together we planned a great memorial and monument to them. This was done long before the boys had gotten home. We plan ned to raise a certain amount of money together, we were to ear mark* $5,000.00 of this money to erect a monument on Memorial Square in the city of Newberry. If the'minutes of these meetings are still available, they should so state. The exact place was I am. I have nothing but praise for those fhat worked to get more money for the hospital. That is all so very well and good. But, can you imaging my surprise when I learned just recently, fhat a commission had now been form ed, composed of one person repre senting certaifi clubs, or organi zations and that they were going tc spend something over $4,000.00 to erect a monument to the vetr erans of World War II and that the monument would be placed directly in front of the Newberry Memorial Hospital. Now what I am hoping to find out, are these organizations furnishing this money to buy this Monument, or, are they spending the money that the people of Newberry county made up for this' purpose soon following the war, when the people were work ing together. I would like to know by what- authority anyone can have to change these plans. If these organizations are buying a monument they have the right to place it where they please, but, if they are spending the money that the people of Newberry coun ty made up they have no right under God’s shining sun -to change the place where the monu ment Is to be placed. I am speak ing for myself, if any committee, commission or individual spends the people’s money for a monu ment to be placed anywhere but it was specified in the original plans, they would simply be mis appropriating the people’s mon ey. It will in my mind ^certainly be an insult and work to a dis advantage to the City of New berry and Newberry county if we ever needed to again ask the people for money on another drive. To my mind it is not being fair to the dead. I cannot, even think of the late Mr. Z. F. Wright being willing for a thing like this to be done. There are many more that I could mention. Mr. Wright was Taylor PTA Honors Miss Kate Thompson, Native Of Newberry Bible Comment: Taylor school Parent - Teacher association has conferred upon Miss Kate Thompson, one of its first grade teachers and outstand ing leaders, a life membership to the-Carolina Congress of Parents and Teachers. This is the high: est honor this organization, can bestow on anyone. This leader has for- the past 49 years devoted .her* time and energy to the welfare of children. Shq has always upheld to the fullest extent the five objectives of the State and National con gress. ' iMiss Thompson was graduated from Prosperity high school from whence she went to Erskine col lege, graduating from there fn 1909. . She has studied at Co lumbia university, University of North Carolina and William and Mary. She went to Columbia city ’ schools in 1916, and has been a source of inspiration to children, parents and other teach ers. ■ Mrs. C. E. Veatch presented to Miss Thompson a certificate de noting this honor and a beauti ful corsage of yellow rosebuds. The presentation was made dur ing the monthly meeting of the PTA on February 26 and was the first yme in the history of the Taylor school organisation that anyone has been given this recognition. a Miss Thompson is the daugh ter of the late Mr. and Mrs. John JI. Tompson of this county. They resided in the Mt. Bethel section, moving to Prosperity in 1908, living at the old Sloan place. Miss Thompson moved to Columbia in 1912.

Dem. Agent’s salary and travel Salary Rent Tb* South Carolina Forest Industries Committee today .announced the launching of an intensive educational cam paign designed to help reduce the state’s costly forest fire losses. Distribution of 60,000 pieces of literature is under way and the quantity will be more than doubled during the year, the com mittee reported. “We hope this campaign will remind every man, woman and child of the importance of pro tecting our forest resources from fire,” said J. E. McCaffrey, of Georgetown, chairman of the committee representing all seg ments of the state’s wood-depend ent industrial/ “The cooperation of every citizen is required to •top our unnecessary and waste ful fire damage.” Forest industries and the South Carolina State Forestry Commission will jointly circulate the educational material. It is being made available by Ameri can Forest Products Industries, Inc., public service organization which serves as national coordi nator of the Keep Green fire pre vention movement. The South Carolina materials will carry the slogan, “Keep South Carolina Green.” Featured in the colorful literature will be an eye-catching photograph of a small pine, with the words, “Worth Protecting.” This will emphasize that woods fires kill seedling trees which — if not burned — would provide for tha state’s future timber needs. In South Carolina every year more than 5,000 woods fires burn a quarter of a million acres of woodlands, the State Forestry Commission reveals. If more peo ple can be made to realize that even grass fires kill little trees, it is believed this damage can be reduced.

Our newspapers wrote up article after article concern ing. To my knowledge not one person in Newberry made any other suggestion nor objected in the very least to this. monument being placed just where the can non was placed that was given as scrap to aid in the scrap drive. The monument was to replace the gun. That is just as clear in my mind as if it were but last night. We all know the history of how Newberry county again went over the top in this the last but the largest drive of all. What an appeal we had, how the people responded together. Some of those incidents are still clear to my mind, the people had been offered an article at a certain price, they knew what they were buying and paying for. They worked hard together, the job was done and the people rejoiced. I can picture in my mind some of the Gold Star mothers, some of the families and love ones that had lost a son. Just how they looked forward to seeing this monument. Cities and counties all around us began putting up memorials, monuments were being erected. The people of Newberry began to wonder. It got to be an old thing and was actually forgotten by many. Yet a large amount of money had been raised and many began to talk. Finally, one night a meeting was held to let the people know something. It con cerned the hospital. The people of Newberry county is well in formed now all about the money that was spent for the hospital. Perhaps everyone is as proud of the work that has been done as the Hospital but I cannot think that he would be willing to see a monument to the Doughboys of 1918 be on the memorial square ad the monuments to their sons be so far away. There are many places that we could erect monu ments if we cared to, we have at least four parks. Any one of which - would be much more ap propriate than out at the hos pital so far from the city. What would any city be without a city square? What a wonderful thing for us to have a memorial square. The good men and women had better be careful and not lose this square, for all that can be seen of the city then would be parked automobiles. The principle 1 in changing these . plans are simply wrong, no minority group regardless of who they are has a just right , to change them. Let’s not forget that these plans were made when a people was work ing together under conditions when we were all very much con cerned about conditions, we had love for one another,^ we had re spect for the feelings of each one. There are dozens of people over Newberry county and men in the city of Newberry that know that what I have just said is the truth. , I am hoping that some of them will use their pres tige, show their courage, stand up for the truth and not allow the monument to be placed on the Newberry County Memorial Hospital grounds, but to see to it that it is placed on Memorial Square just where the people paid for it to be- placed. This is their expressed and desired will. Dewey Kinard Randolph Scott has one of the biggest roles of his career in ’“Man in the Saddle,” Columbia Pictures’ newest action film in color by Technicolor, Monday and Tuesday at the Wells Theatre. Joan Leslie, Ellen Drew and Al exander Knox head the support ing cast, which also features Richard Rober, John Russell, Al- fons(^ Bedoya, and recording artist Tennessee Ernie, singing “Man in the Saddle.” All the wide wonder of the West is reported to be pictured in the new film, in which Scott plays a small rancher who is T^HE Resurrection of Jesus of Nazareth is the one great ray of light, hope, faith and inspiration in what, without that fact, would a dark and gloomy world. It is in the presence of death that we seek some evidence that can as suage its sadness and create some overpowering hope and confidence that can bring light into darkness and tragedy. There is no evidence in nature, life, or history, except the evidence of the Resurrection of Jesus. It is the one supreme fact. And what evidence have we of that Resurrection? The evidence of disciples whose own lives, out look and actions were changed by the fact that they saw Him after His crucifixion. They were affected by His death just as we all are effected by the death of one we love. They were sad beyond measure, and they were bewildered by the blow that had been struck. But beyond their sadness was the intensity of a great disappoint ment and discouragement, the blasting of hopes that had been great enough to induce them to leave' everything and follow a Master about to establish a king dom. Then suddenly their complete despair was transformed into a re vival of faith that, in itself, was as the resurrection of something that had died. In that new-found faith their vain ambitions and their disputations about who should be first were all left behind. Vision and courage of a new comprehension of the meaning of Christ and His Gospel inspired them to go forth to their spiritual conquest of the world. The miracle of what happened to the disciples is the miracle of the Resurrection. And faith in the Risen Lord has been the power and inspiration of those who have 'HZ: followed in their footsteps to |>ring to man God’s gift of eternal life.

I had the great priyiledge of working with Mr. Kinard on ALL of the drives that we had. The things that he has stated in his letter/are absolutely conect. They express my wishes also. Much more could be add 1 ed but it is my hope and pray; that the monument will not erected on the Hospital grounds, but on the Memorial Square. It is here that we have the monu ment to our Confederate soldiers, World War I soldiers and it is the place where Old Glory is now flying over and let’s see to it that the New Memorial shall be placed just exactly where the people of Newberry county paid for it to be placed. Berley C. Shealy jUted by Joan Leslie. Despite the fact tha$ she loves Scott, she leaves him to marry wealthy Alexander Knox, who offers her financial security. Knox, violent ly jealous of Scott, tries to run him out of the area. A violent feud erupts, with gun-fights and, fisticuffs said to be unmatched in the history of outdoor films. Scott is wounded in a gun battle with Knox’s henchmen, and is nursed by schoolteacher Ellen Drew in a mountain hideout. Knox, believing erroneously that his own wife has run off with Scott, has it out with his ex rival in a blazing gunflght. Kenneth Garnet wrote the screen play of the Scott-Brown production, based upon the best selling novel by Ernest Haycox. Andre De Toth directed “Man in the Saddle,” which was pro duced by Harry Joe Brown.
