Red Cross Needs
More Donations
Because of the failure of the
Community Chest campaign for
1966 to meet its quota, the New
berry County Chapter of the Am
erican Red Cross is making an
effort to raise an additional $2.-
300 to carry on its work in New
berry and contribute its quota to
the National disaster fund. This
information comes from Wayne
Martin, county Red Cross chair
man.
Mr. Martin stated that some ot
America's worst disasters occurr
ed during 1955 and the local chap
ter has been asked to contribute
additional funds for disaster re
lief work. The local chapter feels,
according to the chairman, that
the people of Newberry will gen
erously contribute without solic
itation. so there will be no organ
ized campaign to collect the $2300.
Mr. Martin asks that everyone
who can contribute any amount
to send the money to J. Ray Daw
kins, the chapter’s treasurer, at
the county Court house.

T REMEMBER”
BY IKS OLD TIMERS
From John 8. Flint, Clnrkobnrg,
West Virginia: I remember when
I lived with my parents on a farm
at Greenbrier, in Doddridge Coun
ty, West Virginia, about a mile
above the Ross school house. This
is where I learned to read and
write.
I remember how we would
watch for the Huxter wagons
which would pass once a week.
We would trade eggs at 12 cents a
dozen for coffee, sugar, rice and
a few other articles. And I remem
ber harvest time when my father
would haul corn and sleds full of
pumpkins down the hill to our
corn crib. Our farm joined that of
my grandfather, who had a large
place with big meadows and huge
apple orchards. In the spring of
the year I would help Grandpa
build log fires at night to keep
the frost from killing the fruit,
I remember . . Election Day,
1892 ... we moved to a small
village called Morgansville, West
Virginia, and there I remember
Uncle Ike’s cane mill and evap
orator. Uncle Ike, as everyone
knew him, was a medical doctor
who administered to the entire
community as well as running the
can mill every fall.
The Ballenger family tent show
would come about every sum
mer. And the Lowther family, a
musical show. And I remember
the Jones Grist mill near the junc
tion of Middle Island and Buck
eye Creek. There is nothing left
now but the ol^ mill pond.

WIDE, WONDERFUL
WORLD
By FRANKLIN J. MEINE
Editor, The American Peoples
Encyclopedia.
OMALL boys and soap are not
^ always compatible. While
you’re convincing Junior that his
ears need washing, you might give
him a short lecture on the history
of soap, just to distract his atten
tion and to protect yourself. From
the earliest time, water and clays
—tiie forerunners of soaps and
detergents—have been used for
cleansing. Soap has been pre
pared and used in homes for hun
dreds of years. A well equipped
'Oap factory discovered in the
*-uins of, Pompeii indicates the
large-scale use of soap some 2,060
years ago.
A pipe smoker may be interested
to know that Meerschaum also is
called Sepiolite, a white or yel
lowing earth material. It is ob
tained principally from Eskisehir
In Asia Minor, but it occurs also
in Samoa, Moravia. Spain. Mo
rocco, and in the United States in
New Mexico, Pennsylvania, Utah,
and California. It is very soft and
highly porous. When dry it floats
on water. It is used chiefly in the
nanufacture of the famous tobac-

About Indian Art

lect. ' 15
Mrs. Frances Lindermann, who
was In charge of the program, in
troduced Mrs. Pinckney Abrams,
who showed a movie “Indian Arts
and Crafts.’’ The first portion of

showing how they mad^ dye from
plants, roots and bark. The re
maining portion showed the Hopi
