Jr. High Students May Get Shots The Health Committee of the Junior high school Parent-Teacher Association is launching a project which will be of great benefit to every student of the school. The committee, composed of Dr. Von Long, chairman, and Mrs. John Felker and Mrs. M. D. Hoffmeyer, is trying to bring every Junior high student up to date with im munizations during this school year. Dr. R. EL Livingston, presi dent of the organization, announ ces that this is a voluntary pro ject, and the help of the parents is needed to make the immuniza tion program a success. During this week, a letter will go Into the home of every Junior high student, stating that the vac cines will be gven for typhod, lock jaw and small pox. Parents are asked n the letter to state the year of the most recent "shots which the children have received for these three iihmunizations and to state whether they wish the immunization brought up to date for (heir children. At the present time the most important immunization is tetanus toxoid because it is now thought that many people are allergic to the tetanus anti-toxin which is made from horse serum. Usually there is no generalized reaction from the toxoid, and if this im,- munization is kept up to date, no anti-toxin will be needed when in jury occurs. If the child is still immundzadi from smallpox from a former vaccination, the current vaccination will not "take",' and the child will not have a sore arm. The immunizations will be giv en by the Newberry County health department at the Junior high school on Fridays, and will be giv en free of charge. Principal R. E. Beck, the faculty and staff of the school are giving whole-hearted cooperation in this splendid pro ject. Parents are. urged to return to the school the proper informa tion promptly so that the pro gram can get under way as soon as possible. Polio vaccine can soon be ob tained from the county health de partment or from private physi cians. BOYS ARE THAT WAY By J. M. ELEAZER r * Xr«. " ■ : - Press S. Livingston, who lives on Route 4, is owner of Mystery farm No. 12 in last week’s issue of the Sun. The Livingston farm is located on the Saluda highway, six miles from Newberry. Formerly known as the Gray Davy Werts place, the farm one belonged to Mr. Livingston’s great aunts. He bought it 18 years ago from Judge Eugene S. Blease. At that time, most of the acreage was in pines, but has been cleared up for dairy farming. Mrs. Livingston is the former Miss Irma Perry of Saluda. The two Livingston children, Van Rhett, 6 years old and Dixie Jo, 10 are students at Silverstreet school. The Livingstons attend Silverstreet Lutheran church, and Mr. Livingstom is a member of, the Bush River Young Farmers club. The mixed cattle on the Livingston farm produce eleven to twelve thousand pounds of grade A nrilk each month, which is sold to Coble dairies. Of the 205 acres in the farm, 80 is de voted to balanced pastures. The remainder of the land is used in raising food for the cattle. Like most other farmers in the county, Mr. Livingston uses up to date farm machinery and fol lows Soil Conservation Service recommended practices.

J. K. Willingham, Sec.-Treas. NEWBERRY, S. C. We*ve been talking here of how boys like to throw things. Not only With their arm, but with all manner of make-shift guns, like we’ve told of here for the past three weeks. There is still another sort of gun we made in addition to slings, slingshots, etc. It was a cornstalk gun. . ' * >- We’d get a good strong, dry corn stalk and clean the leaves off. Then we’d cut it off a little above where the ears came out, there where it starts to getting weaker. It would be cut off a- bout tw6 inches above a joint, one side sliced off, and the pith in there reamed out. In that cavity we’d wedge the right size rock. Then we could give that a swish, like hitting a ball with a bat and sling the rock out. With all of that leverage, we could sure throw it far. This sort of gun was rather un reliable though. It was hard to sling it just right so the rock would leave it at the right time. Therefore, there was not much aiming it. You just threw blindly. But it was fun. You could throw so far! And ever now and then you put too much effort behind your heave and broke the gun. Then it was all to x do over again. We kids of the Stone Hills made our fun as we found It. There was never a dull moment, and the days were never long enough. PRINTING: The Sun is well equip ped to handle all your printing orders.

Meine A great many farmers and race track enthusiasts know that a fur long represents one-eighth of a mile, but a short quiz may dem onstrate that they don’t know the derivation of the word This meas ore of length was originally the length of the A&citent acre, which was 40 rods long by 4 rods wide. In the old English open or common field system, each furrow ploughed ran the length of the acre, and the distance was called forkmg—a con traction for M fur^ow-long. ,, Almost every schoolboy knows that Eli Whitney invented the cot ton gin. But few of us know—or remember—that he is the father of the factory assembly line. In 1797. Whitney perfected a means of pro ducing firearms with interchange able parts—mass-produced parts, each of which can be substituted for another. After producing ap proximately 25,000 firearms for the federal government it was ac knowledged that Whitney had turned out superior guns and that with his machinery all geared up, he was in a position to produce ay immense quantity of muskets and pistols, formerly laboriously hand made, with what for that time was ohenomenal speed. The American watch industry adopted and per fected the technique of assembly line production. Later the automo bile Industry followed suit. WORDS .
