Paysinger, Distributor T HE FIRST green garden snake made its appearance m our yard. It showed up at several places. First, it must have been in the yard, because the boys brought it into the house, and the oldest held it out and said, “Look, Pop, what we found.” The scream that followed brought the wife and grandmother running. “Take it away,” shouts I. “Calm yourself,” says the wife, “it’s only a little snake.” “Sure, Pop,’ says the oldest boy. “It’s cute.” “Sure,” says I. “It’s cute, but I hate snakes. And I hate people who frighten people who are fright ened of snakes. Take it way!” I retreated to my bedroom and tried to compose my shattered nerves. But I had made a mistake. I had told the boys I was fright ened of snakes. After dinner, and still shaking like a lamb going to slaughter, I retreated to my bed. With a good book and the radio turned low I relaxed. And then something cold crawled over my feet. I tried to scream, but nothing came out. I fled to the living room. “Where are they,” I croaked to the wife. “That snake, they put it in my bed.” “Now, dear, take it easy. They’re asleep.” “Asleep or not, to the basement they go,” says I and marches to their bedroom, the wife in hot pur suit. At their bedroom door the wife catches me. “Aren’t they sweet,” says she pointing to the little demons. “Just like little angels.” “Huh!” snorts I, and retreated to the living room. “Then you get that snake out of my bed and call me when its gone,” Sc AT LOMINICK’S DRUG STORE PRESCRIPTIONS ARE CALLED FOR AND DELIVERED PRESCRIPTIONS FILLED BY LICENSED DRUGGIST PHONE 981 CPL.

To begin with, it takes thrifty, healthy, happy people who love and value freedom. * Then, it takes good schools, playgrounds for the children, public libraries, hosoitalr. and churches. It takes telephones, electricity, plenty of pure water and all the other utilities essential to modern comfort and health. It takes firemen and traf fic cops. It takes shops and stores where all the products of this rich country are sold. Behind all this stands industry. Manufacture and marketing of useful products from raw or semi-processed materials provide economic bone and sinew of every community—large or small. Forest industries perform this vital economic role in more than 60,- 000 towns and cities around the United States. The South Carolina National Bank
