Of all the men that you know, of all the men that yop
know, your father is your very best pal. He has encounteredmore than
life and knows the spots that are waylaid with evil. He will not fall
into the same pitfall twice, and by taking counsel with him, you will
save yourself from similar misfortune. Always go to him in your trou
bles. Make your father a confidant. He will answer your questions and
will understand your position.
RESPECT the authority of your father. That is one of the very best
resolves you can possibly make. Never, never go and travel the high
ways and byways without parental discipline. When you say that you
will be home by nine o’clock, that is the very thing you should put into
practice. Life has stern codes. One of them is to keep your word when
once passed, though it may cost you something that may not be tem
porarily profitable, but in the end very rich dividends.
.
NEVER build on the habits of disrespect and disobedience. If you
want to follow the highway of the right, let the intelligence of your
father fall upon that highway. To make your way of life sure, study the
Bible.

MAIL BOX NAME PLATES
A number of county 4-H club
councils have promoted mail box
name plates. The project has been
specially active in NEWBERRY
county. According to County Ag
ent EZELL, 720 of those attrac
tive names plates have been sold
over the county by 4H club mem
bers.
Thus marking the mail boxes
is also a detail in the community
improvement work that’s under
way in many communities over
the state, and for which The Pro-
•
gressive Fanner supplies liberal
prizes.
“Community Improvement! ”
That -implies much. For it is
there we live. And improving our
farms, homes, churches, schools,
ahd countryside touches ell ang
les of a good life. If wo are proud
of our home and community why
not put legible and attractive
name plates on our mail boxes.
The 4H boys and girls in most
countie-s can get them for you
tor a dollar.
MAPLfe SYRUP IN SALUDA
Wtoo’d a thought it? Maple sy
rup being made in Saluda. • 1
My old friend Hubert Ellis was
up to Clemson last winter and
asked about - making syrup from
the sap of our maples. He was
sent to our forester. Bill Barker,
who knows things about trees.
Bill gave him a circular describ
ing the procedure used up East.
Hubert said he imagined it was
not practical here. But he just
wanted to see if he could do it
Tc Bill’s surprise, in March he
received a sample of good mapel
syrup from Hubert.' The maple
trees were tapped about the mid
dle of January. Hubert says he
thinks that was a bit late, as the
sap didn’t flow long after that.
He collected about 100 gallons of
sap and ended up- with 2 gallons
of syrup, good syrup, according
to Bill. He plane to collect sap
earlier next f winter and make
| some more syrup.
I often speak of the various
products this part of our favored
laqd will produce. But I hadn’t
included maple syrup before.
FARM AND HOME WEEK
Last call, Farm and Home week
—Clemson August 16 to 1$?
My, my, have you seen the pro
gram? There’s just about every
thing on it. And all manner of
organizations meet here that week
too. - ,
Folks will be here by the thous
ands. They always are. And each
year seems to get bigger and big
ger and better and better.
There should be no scarcity of
rooms this year, as the vast dorm-,
itory expansion is complete. And
the new dining hall can seat over
3000 at one time.
The general exhibit tent will be
over 400 feet long and the million
dollar machinery displays will
cover acres and acres.
Diversified agriculture and mo
dern home making on the march
wiH be the theme of the week.
WHO CAN BEAT THIS?
County Agent Livingston of Dil
lon showed me the acre and a
quarter of Coastal Bermuda grass
Bob Moody pat out in the spring
of last year. On August 3 of last
year he cut 5300 pounds of good
bay from it. And after that he
grazed 25 cattle 41 days on 4L
No wonder Hugh Woodle des
cribes it as “The grass you can’t
lie about”
Time and again in recent years
someone has told what many be
lieved was a tale about it. But
before you knew it another fellow
had come along and beaten him.
With plenty of fertilizer, spec
ially nitrogen, Coastal Bermuda
wijl make records that are hard
to believe. And it’s not only fine
grazing but excellent for hay and
silage too. So In football language
it is the greet triple threat crop-
excelling in all three, hay grazing
and silage. •
A lot of it was put out the past
spring. Tours have been and will
be held to see a lot of these dem
onstration plantings. Ask your
County Agent where you might
see fields of it. For this is the
grass we sure need to keep an
eye on. It likes hot weather and
should be shouting from now un
til fall.

T ENTH wedding anniversary!
Mazy hummed softly as she
strolled into the den to answer the
telephone. First she let it ring a
few times; mustn’t let Bob know
that she’d been watting tor his
call all day. Wonder. what he’d
planned for this year? Probably a
trip to the stock-car races, or a
night baseball game, or some such
stupid event. That’s what she got
for marrying an athlete. On their
ninth anniversary Bob had taken
her to h wrestling match.
Mazy found herself bopfaig that
tonight would be different. Bob
might have planned a quiet supper
for two, or a dance—? Eagerly she
reached for the telephone.
“My goodness, but It took yon
long enough 1“ earns a peeved femi
nine voice.
“Oh, .hello kargel Sony. X
thought It was Bob.”
“And you decided to keep 1dm
watting? Well, take a tip from your
best friend, hooey, and change your
tactics; Jf it isn’t too late.”
“Too late?” A chffl went through

At last she heard him at thp from
door. His happy whistle was gone.
When he poked his l^ad through
the kitchen doorway he looked as
dejected as a hungry puppy.
“Well—I tried!” he said empfaa-
tieaSy.
Mary swallowed the lump in her
throat; she wouldn’t allow herself
to hatwru* hysterical. Feigning
ashed innocently:
“TWed what, dear?” White
kies twisted beneath her apron.
“I—X tried to get tickets for the

“I hope you're not too

might even like that better than a
fight Silly of her, wasn't it?”
“Alice? Alice Knowles?”
“Not Alice Knowles for long- She
and Billy are going to get married.
In fact I spent the best part of
afternoon with her over at Coope

Mary hung up. Alice Knowles
had always admired Bob*—and she
was a genuine sports enthusiast.
ft was toe longest afternoon of
Mary's life. The telephone grew
monstrous as she watched it Why
didn’t it ring? Why didn’t her hus
band's deep voice announce that
he had tickets to a prize-fight? Or
a track-meet? Or that he was about
to fadroduce her to a jolly group
«f fencing fanciers as he had done

"I was just

'TJsten, honey, I was wrong about
this afternoon. Bflly stopped by to
let me know that he and Alice are
getting married. Then he asked me
about some fight tickets; imagine
my surprise when I found them on
the rug after he'd gone. The poor
boy’s in a dither. Funny thing
about- the tickets, though. Bob's
name is on toe envelope. Do you
want me to tear toenf up, Mary?
I know bow you loathe such
events.”
“Don't you dare!” Mary cried
excitedly. “Bob will be delirious.
Besides, I wouldn’t miss our an*
niversary fight for toe whole world.
Funny thing. I’m rather looking
forward to it.” - f t i
