In its recent advertising series
in national magazines and news
papers, the Board has featured
“testimonials” in which industrial
ists themselves tell why their
plants have succeeded in South
Carolina. In nearly every instance
the part played by productive em
ployees has been emphasized.
The report said the list of new
industries locating in the State
“provided an impressive array of
new types of manufacturing. Some
of these included: carillon bells,
extruded aluminum, poultry feed,
pil canning, builders’ hardware,
trailers, air maintenance, boats,
tile, and steel fabrication.”

Mrs. Wiseman as Registrar, re
ported that papers for a new mem
ber w'ould be ready at the Febru
ary meeting which will be held in
the. home of Mrs. Elmer Shealy
with Mesdames Briggs and Lester
assisting.
The chapter congratulated Mrs.
Shealy on the unusual record that
she has made in her work with
the Cub Scouts, as announced re
cently through the Blue Ridge
Council.
Mrs. Brown as U.D.C. Magazine
Chairman secured 13 subscriptions
—new and renewals. All names of
subscribers must be sent in very
soon in order that the February
number may be received./
Mrs. Boyd reported that rain

Mrs. Norris as Treasurer report
ed $62.50 in dues for the afternoon,
making a total in the treasury of
$194.95 cents. Several souvenir
plates had been sold recently.
Mrs. Shealy reported cards sent

expressions of appreciation. ~
Mrs. Griffith- called attention to
the Confederate Cantata to be
given in Columbia on Jan. 20th at
night, the U.D.C. of South Carolina
being co-sponsor in the presen
tation. This promises to be a very
outstanding musical event.
Mrs. Westwood had the subject
for the Program—“Notorious Mary
Boozer—a Newberry County Na
tive.” The description she gave of
this remarkably beautiful and
glamourous woman and the events
in her life was very interesting.
The stir she created not only in
Columbia and Washington, but in
the courts of Europe, her several
marriages, sometimes to royalty,
her divorces, and finally to the
Chinese Prime Minister, who
wearying of her numerous indis
cretions, had her thrown into pri
son and beheaded.
The hostesses served a delect
able plate of sandwiches, spiced
pineapple, old time pound cake
and coffee.
“The Part that Women Are
Playing in Civil Defense and Patri
otic Activities” will be Mrs. Sligh’s
subject at the Feb. meeting.
T HE big man was as angry as a
bull and you could see the veins
bulging up at his neck. He knew
a police prowl car would be around
in two minutes because he had
just phoned headquarters. He
walked right up to the small thin
man wearing a pair of hdrned eye
glasses.
“What’a the matter with you?
Can’t you read English?”
“Read English?” repeated the
small man. “I am a professor of
English literature at the state uni
versity.”
“Just a little wise guy trying to
be smart,” snapped back the big
man. “I’m sick and tired of your
type. The sign says NO PARKING.
Your car is blocking my driveway.
I can't get my car out. What’s the
matter with people. No considera
tion for others. Go and move that
car.”
“You forgot to say Please,” cor
rected the small man. “I like peo
ple to be polite when they request
another to do a favor. And especial
ly when the person is a stranger.”
“Go on and push that car with
your two hands. Perhaps that will
teach you a lesson,” ordered the
big man. “And if you weren’t such
a small guy, I’d break you in two.”
The police prowl car drew up to
the side of the parked car and
the Sergeant came up to the big
man.
“Received your phone call at
headquarters. I got it on my short
wave. I’ll put a summons on this
car.”
“And make that little shrimp
move the car right now. I’d like to
have him do it with his own two
hands.”
“There is a city ordinance which
prohibits the parking of a car in
front of a private or public drive
way. So move the car away from
here.” said the Sergeant. “And not
with your twc hands. Just get be
hind the wheel, start the motor,
and go on your way. And take
this ticket I am going to make
out for you. Ten dollar fine. You-
can pay it in the Magistrate’s Court
tomorrow morning.”
“I am not going to get into that
car. Nor will I accept a summons.
This is an outrage,” said the small
man.
The big man could take no more.
Everyone was parking right in
front of his driveway. He advanced
belligerently towards the small
man.
“And why won’t you move that
car?”
“Because it isn’t mine,” was
the simple but rather determined
reply. %
There was a deadly silence. The
Sergeant had to think of some
thing while his face was turning
red. *
“What were you doing outside of
this man’s house? Loitering is a
Inisdemeanor.”
“I am his new landlord. I came
here to tell him I am the person
to notify if he wants a lease for
the coming year.”
