OPEN FORUM
(The following letter to the
Editor was received too late to
be set in type for publication in
last week’s issue of the Sun.—Ed.)
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.

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.
