I was sorry, however, to see the Tuesday afternoon .program * o f classical music on the Steve Hood show come to an end. I hav e heard many comments from peo ple about town about the music Steve played on that particular afternoon. I happened to hear it once in a while because occasion ally the babies consent to sleep about that time. I don’t think they would allow me to hear it at night, but for the benefit of oth ers who could hear it, why not a night program of classical mu sic? When those of you who en joyed the program call WKDK to order your baby chicks, let them know you want to hear that pro gram again. TALENT DISCOVERY The Rotary Minstrel show to be held this weekend is bringing out talent I didn’t know existed. I know that one of our foremost citizens is an able legislator and capable attorney, but until I heard him sing on the radio this morn ing, I didn’t know he was a talent ed vocalist. I am sure you will en joy hearing Aubrey Harley sing at the Rotary Minstrel show and that you will be as surprised as I was to learn that he can out- sing many of the so-called pro- fesionals.

(Continued from page 1) stitutions that the lack of suffi cient funds for a building did not deter the cause. A well qualified young pastor was chosen admin istrator and faculty. This young man, John G. Schwartz was an honor graduate of South Carolina College (The S. C. University.) After graduation he taught in the college of Charleston and was tutored in Lutheran Theology by Rev. John Bachman of Charles ton. He later went as a mission ary to the middle and upper dis tricts of the state and organized a number of congregations, re maining their pastor. At this meting he agreed to in struct such earnest and pious men as would come to his boarding place, the home of Col. Eigleber- ger near Pomaria. In 1830 a group of young men were approved by the Synod and presented themselves. Those who needed board and lodging found it for $70 a session.' There was no tuition fee. The opening exer cises were conducted on thefirst Monday in February 1831 in the northeast room upstairs of the home which now stands in sight of Bethlehem Lutheran church. The school began with one pro fessor and nine students. The following August, eight months later, the students and other Lutherans were shocked with sorrow when Rev. Schwartz died. Undaunted by the set-back, they prayed and perservered and another was chosen to fill the vacancy. By 1834 the opening took place at a new location in Lexington, with Rev. E. H. Haze- lius, D.D., professor of theology and Rev. Washington Muller, principal of the Classical depart ment. The beginning of this educa tional endeavor of the Lutheran church marked a new era in a period of history. The work of these two educators was a bless ing. The results of their labors have been seen as the work of the Lutheran church unfolds. WATERSHED . . . (Continued from page 1) the lawns of those who have homes on Scott’s creek, will aid the city by preventing damage to streets and bridges and will stop flooding which now occurs i n some places of business located near the creek. “In picking a loca tion for a dam,” explained Mr. Shull “the requirements are a site that would give us the shortest dam with the most storage, con sidering the length of the dam, the depth of the valley, the steep ness of the sides and how the val ley above opens to lend itself to storage.” A permanent pond would b e built for water storage with the dam erected at one end of the pond. From the dam, water would flow through a pipe into the creek, keeping the pond at a stea dy level. In the event of heavy rains when the dam would not contain all of the water, an emer gency spillway would bebuilt. “It would be seldom that the spillway would ever be used,” said Mr. Shull. “Rainfall records for many years past are studied and the dams will be built to accommodate any normal heavy rains.” Land owners of the sites where dams are located will have con trol of the permanent pond and may use it for irrigation, or for recreation purposes. (Mr. Shull emphasized that oth er measures in the watershed pro gram were of much importance. Some of the other phases of the work will be dealt with in later interviews with other members of the survey party, to be published in The Sun.) A. B. Asbill Dies At Home Monday A. B.
