Nothing but a stupid musical show starring a person narped Betty White whose voice Is no compen sation for her good looks Just how many housewives can afford precicus time to listen to and watch a so-called variety show be fore lunchtime? (Before lunchtimf In Chicago — it comes on at even more strange hours in other cities) Well. NBC can have their Betty White and personally, we be lieve they’re stuck with her Fortunately. ABC saw the value of "Uncle Win” and realized it was more important to keep the chil dren entertaii^d on sustaining time than the housewives and have r*icl'.ed up "Animal Play Time.” But you still v'onder FLATTER CHATTER COLUMBIA:— Paul Weston re vives a favorite oldie, “I Went Out of My Way” with pleasing effect...

Capital Life has enjoyed greater growth than any other similar company in South Caro lina. This outstanding progress has been due to three primary . factors: We have always dedi cated ourselves to the policy holders first; to the employees second; and to the stockholders and executives last. Then, too, our success has been immeasurably promoted be cause we have worked together, have solved problems, by using the minds, thoughts and efforts of all. We have unity. Today, South Carolinians in all walks of life must stand to gether to meet the many critical problems which the people must face and solve. Business men, professional men, workers, church leaders, educators, arjd people in all walks of life must unite to make our state a better place in which to worship, work and Jive. ; , Only through unity can we at- | tain the answers to the problems of today and tomorrow. PRESIDE! CAPITAL LIFE INSURANCE COMPANY ‘'Founded on Faith—Dedicated to Service” COLUMBIA, S. C. Misplaced Boxes Traffic Hazard For Mail Riders Acting Postmaster Harry E. Moose has called the attention of rural mail patrons to the state point system for traffic law vio lators in regard to how their rural mail carrier is involved, especially when serving boxes which are lo cated on the left hand side of the road as traveled by the Carrier. This left hand location of boxes presents a very definite traffic hazard and subjects the rural ca»- rier to the possibility of losing his drivers license. Under the state law a traffic violator found guilty of driving on the wrong side of the road could have two points assessed against his license and responsibility for an accident carries either two or five points, depending on the seriousness of the accident and rural carriers are subject to this law the same as any other driver. However, each time a rural carrier is required to drive on the left hand side of the road to serve a rural box, he takes a further risk than the average citizen becausfe he takes a chance of losing his job. If he loses his drivers license, naturally he is' unable to perform his duties as a mail carrier. Ten points assessed against a driver normally automatically suspends I the drivers license. Highway officials have made it clear that the traffic violations are applied to all roads whether state or county road as long as they are public roads. This makes it neces sary for patrons on the most re mote county roads to move their mail boxes to the right hand side of the road as travelled by the carrier. Rural carriers, postmasters and other postal officials are urging all rural mail patrons who have boxes located on the left hand side of the road as travelled by the carrier to take immediate steps to move their boxes for the protection of the rural carriers as well as the protection of other drivers. Rural patrons have in the past been most cooperative in correcting conditions which are bad for proper mail de livery and the Newberry post master expresed the belief that they would in this case also give the rural carriers their fullest co operation. l REMEMBER BY THE OLD TIMERS From Leola Heath, Detroit, Mich igan: I remember doing janitor work and fhoveling sn’ow while teaching about 60 grade pupils for $35 a month. My family was de lighted. My sister had done the same tiring before me for $25 a month and my father before her had received 50 cents a day and "boarded ’round.” I remember with joy the horse- propelled merry - go - round where you rode with, your “sweetie” for 15 minutes for 5c a ride. The owner, of said "amusement” would wear cotton whiskers and Santa Claus suits, to the rural children’s de light How wonderful it was to have Santa call one by name! ^ also remember with sorrow how those whiskers caught fire from tree candles of his daughter’s first job as "teacher”; the merry-go- round and our Santa were no more. The churches served lunches and ice cream at the Fourth of July picnics for 5e for each article and many a swain ate and said, “Lick ing good. Sal, buy yourself some.” (Dutch treat we say now.) ) Funerals were from the homes and the neighbors dug and lined the graves, often making the coffin from trees cut on their homesteads. The burial might be In the church yard or it might be on the home- place. with a fence put about the grave to keep the cattle off.

Let Guests 'Tailor' Their Sundaes to Order BY DOROTHY MADDOX /^•AKE-SHELL sundaes, each made to individual taste, can pro- ^ vide each guest at your next party with two portions of fun. Fun in the making and in the eating. Arrange two large trays so everything can be easily transported. On one tray, place firmly frozen ice cream balls, a selection of jams and jellies, canned pineapple tidbits and nuts, cherries and strawberries for that super touch. On the other tray arrange ready-to-serve cake shells. The even texture of the cake shells makes a tip-top base large enough to hold a generous serving that will satisfy every appetite. Your grocer has them, and they’re specially wrapped to help keep them fresh. You’ll find that both teen-agers and oldsters have fun creating a tailor-" -?c? dessert with a dab of this and a fillip of that. Tailor-Made Cake Sundaes (6 servings) N Six e-iko i-.'.-lls, 6 scoops of ice cream, firmly frozen; 12 maraschino cherries, with stems; 12 whole nuts (pecans or walnuts), 1 cup jelly (any sweet variety), 1 cup jam (any sweet variety), 1 No. 2 can pineapple tidbits, drained; % pint of fresh strawberries, with hulls; % pint heavy cream, whipped. The pleasant cake sundae suggestion came from Barbara Starr, consumer service director of Tip-Top Bakers. Here are two more of her suggestions that we’ve used and really enjoyed. They are good for people who watch their weight Hoi Finger Sandwiches (Makes 8 sandwiches) One-quarter pound liverwurst, unsliced; 3 tablespoons pickle relish, 8 slices protein bread, 4 tablespoons melted butter. Mix together liverwurst and pickle relish and roll mixture into 8 sausage-shaped pieces. Cut-the crusts from the protein bread. Place one liverwurst sausage diagonally across each slice 4»f protein bread. * Bring opposite edges of bread together, and secure with toothpicks. Brush canapes with melted butter and broil for 5 minu*^s, or until protein bread is golden brown. Serve hot Cheese-Bread Casserole Fyre cups toasted, %-inch protein bread cubes (about l r cs), your next party. Tailor-made sundaes are food-fen for aU. Mt pound grated cheese, 3 eggs, beaten; H teaspoon salt, % tea spoon paprika, Vi teaspoon dry mustard, 2Mt cups milk. Alternate layers of bread cubes and grated cheese in a greased 1%-quart casserole, ending with cheese as a top layer. Combine . eggs, salt, paprika, mustard and milk. Pour this liquid mixture over the bread cubes and cheese in the casserole. Bake in a moderate oven (375 degrees F.) for just 45 to 50 minutes.
