A—Latest figures give 22.5% of present population as either foreign bom or of foreign-bom parents. Some areas run much higher than others. In New York City, for instance about 56.3% of die popula tion are foreign bom or first generation Americans. Of course all Americans, except the Indians, come from foreign bom parentage. Q—Did all the delegates at the constitutional convention in Philadel phia sign the Constitution of the United States? , A—No. There were 53 accredited delegates of which only 39 were sign ers. Three men refused to sign—Elbridge Gerry, George Mason and Edmund Randolph—while 11 others declined to serve or were ab sent from the sessions. Q—What happens to the staff of a member of Cengrepa If he dlee? A—The secretaries and clerks remain cm the government payroll of six months after a member dies or resigns. In many cases mem bers of staffs are kept on by the successor Incumbent Q—What is meant by “pairing’* in votes in the Ho— and Senate? A—This is a practice used when two congressmen of opposing parties who plan to be absent when a vote Is taken, refrain from voting in person, but permit the announcement of their votes on opposite sides of a question.' The votes are not counted In the total vote taken. House rules recognized the practice in 1880, and It ia per mitted in the senate, though not recognized by the rules. BOYS ARE THAT WAY By J. M. ELEAZER As stated here for the past few weeks, many memories go back to our train. It rode that natural ridge or divide between the rivers Broad and Saluda. And all the 72 miles from Laurens to Columbia it hardly needed a trestle except at each end. At most places it is right on the divide. Water falling north of it goes into the Broad and south of it into the Saluda River. That made for easy building and maintenance. Although during wet times the track got awful soggy, for they didn’t have ballast then. And many a time I’ve seen the mud and water spatter from under the tires as the train went along. Often the engine was so muddy it needed fenders. Billy Graham,, the engineer, and Mr. John McCain, the conductor, were legendary characters in our life. Billy was a friendly' fat man who waved at everyone, and we all thought he could make that whistle moan as no other. Mr. John was a handsome fel low, with black moustache. And he was absolute master of that train. No one questioned his com plete authority. And he carried a WINS SENATE RAGS . . . First man in history to win S. senate seat by write-in ballot Is South Carolina’s former gover nor J. Strom Thurmond. r^ESPITI aU the rules and regu- JL' lations, the "substitute” 'in to day’s average sports contest is a guy who usually -plays more than half the game even though ,lie doesn’t get in on fee llrst play. ■Rie honor 1 of being a '"•starter” in something to be desired, of course, in athletics or in everyday living. Yet a r lot of excellent start ers somehow or other always fail to finish the game with the same speed and enthusiasm they gen erated at the start It ain’t right! I’m going to cite bridge playing to prove my point, and it'a not so far-fetched as you think. Our town broke out in a “rath” of bridge dubs here a few months ago. Everywhere you looked, nr went, someone was forming a new dub—once a week, twice a month, or once a month. Pick the one that suited you. Despite the little woman’s urg ing, I refused to commit myself to playing regularly, whether it meant once a week, every day, or once/ a year. Too many tilings crop up from time to time that make pre committments an inconvenience. I settled by promising to Sub stitute” from time to time when regular .dub members were un able to be present. What hap pened? The wife promised practi cally every dub in town we would "fill in.” Too late, I have realized my folly. The wife and I play more than folks who joined one or two dubs when they started. And, I don’t have much of a comeback when she reminds, "Now, dear, you promised you would substitute remember?” It does get confusing, tho, who we have to decide which of tv substitutions we wish to ms 1 Tobacco 66.34 Medical Services l 40.00 Gulf spray : : 8.76 Dental services 8.00 S.

The wise sportsman will be prepared for it. There are many ways to great ly reduce your chances of joining the ranks of unwilling bathers. First of all, paint your decks. Var nish may give your ship that svelte look, but it has no place underfoot. There are a number of so-called nonskid paints on the market and all of them are use ful. Some commercial men throw sahd on the wet paint. This is excellent, if you don’t mind wear ing through your clothes and sur rendering vast areas of skin in the event of a spill. • The best footwear is hobnail boots. Unfortunately, most cap tains take a dim view of these. Rubber soles are the next best thing. Boots in winter and sneak ers in the summer. Again, there are the nonskid varieties. Zack' Taylor, whose article on boating safety appeared recently in Sports Afield magazine, says that he pre fers bare rubber worn smooth. But don’t forget that water is a natural lubricant of rubber. There is nothing that beats the timeworn sea adage, “One hand for you and one hand for the ship.” This is a primary rule. But the grab rails of many boats are deplorable. Tiny varnished wood splinters or slim chromium strips are pretty, but they are too mea ger to hang your life on. Even worse, you often find great stretches unprotected where you have to leave one rail and lunge desparately for the next The commercial men use inch pipe—a welcome fistful and every foot of it is braced. Going overboard is a breath- was loud and mouthy. Mr. John put him out of there twice. The third time, he waved his lantern out and stopped the train. He took^ that drunk by the nap of the neck, gave him the bum’s rush to the back door. ^Turned him to the side, and gave him one resounding kick in the seat of the pants as he was leaving for a lunge Into the briers there by the side of the tfack. Law suit? We never heard of such a thing for that Rather -a medal would have been pinned on Mr. John’s blue coat. Subscribe to The Newberry Sun taking experience and in cold water your strength will be sap ped with incredible speed. Add to these factors the immense fright that will grip the bravest mtm alone in the sea and the power of endurance is reduced easily by half. A seasoned guard has said that he would hardly venture over his depth alone. “But give me a life ring, or a plank, and I’ll leave for England.” A life ring within reach is as important as gas in the tank. And it is the wise man who insists on life jackets for those who can not swim and who will don one himself.
