Dear Mr. Editor: Sdme time ago there appeared a well thought out article in one of our local newspapers, which pointed out the need of our city to seek new industries in order to grow. It also urged the people of Newberry to show (or continue to show) a friendly attitude t o each other and to our visitors. This article was well written, and car ried the spirit of any good ag gressive city but one woull won der after the vote on annexation last Tuesday if the people of the city of Newberry really have the desire to be neighborly and t o push forward. For the past several weeks much has been said concerning the annexation of Oakland and Crestwood into the city of New berry. One paper has carried an article on more than one occasion signed only by “A group of In terested Taxpayers” who have never as yet made themselves known to the general public. This unnamed committee has done much, we are afraid, to demoralize the relationship between the city of Newberry and the above-named communities. 1. Pity the city that has no desire to grow and progress; The City of Newberry boasts of its not changing the city limits since it became a city. In the period of 1940 to 1950 thd City of Newberry grew in population by only 36 people. 2. Pity the city whose* people are willing to follow the leader ship of an anonymous committee. 3. * Pity the committee which writes an article for publication, yet refuses bo identify the mem bers of the committee with the article. 4. Pity the city that looks only at the cost of enlarging its boun daries, without thinking of ' the great contribution it could make to society. rict No. 1 OS, County and State aforesaid, assessed to and levied upon in the name of Irvin Tur ner Jr., Et Al. 1 acre, 1 building, in tax dist rict No. 5, County and State a- foresaid, assessed to and levied upon in the name of Senius Chap man.

Graveside Rites For Mrs. Cousins Funeral services for Mrs. Dell Dennis Cousins, 86, who died early Thursday morning at the Newberry County Memorial Hos pital, was held Saturday at the graveside in the Chapman family cemetery in the Hartford sec tion. Officiating was the Rev. Thom as F. Suber. She had been ill for three weeks, seriously the past few days. Mrs. Cousins, born and reared at Newberry, was the daughter of the late James Hawkins and Susannah Young Dennis. She was the widow of John Cousins, who died in 1929. She was a member of St. Luke’s Lutheran Church. Survivors include one brother, J. T. Dennis of Cornelia street, Newberry, and a number of nieces and nephews. 5. Pity the city that does not possess enough vision to look in to the future, but looks only at the present. 6. Pity “The City of Friendly People” who slams its doors in the face of their friendly neigh bors. By your vote of last Tuesday you expresed yourselves in no un certain terms that you do not want us in your city.* Now can we not feel that if we are not welcome maybe our payroll of from $35,000 to $40,000 a week isn’t welcome either. It is believ ed by many that the City of New berry has forgotten how the Ken dall company at Oakland turned over to the city the water lines, sewer lines and electric lines which would have amounted to a large sum of money. What if you did not get your share of the pay roll from Oakland each week? The hope of many of the citi zens of Oakland village is that in the near future some interested unbiased parties with ambition and aggressiveness will build a modern shopping center near for our convenience and patronage. Such a shopping center would be looked upon favorably by many people who feel rejected and un wanted in the City of Newberry. Think it over, Mr. Voter!!! Did you show the spirit of good citizenship and neighborliness to your brother ? Signed: C. J. Swindler, 1306 Third St., Oakland. Hughes Receives Thrifty Award The “Joe B.
