The proud possession of the
Hammond family, this broken
spur was unearthed a hundred
years ago at Silver Bluff where
DeSoto and his army camped in
1640. Except for the eight iron
tines, the spur is solid silver. The
bluff, on the Savannah River
near Aiken, gets its name be
cause the glitter of mica led
DeSoto and other early explor
ers to think silver was plentiful
there.
In historic South Carolina, the
United States Brewers Founda

PEOPLE WHO MAKE A HOME
By Fran Pachter
M Y MOTHER and dad lived
with us in the summer and
spent the winter with my brother
Andy in Florida. We thought this
a nice set up for old folks giving
them the advantage of ideal weath
er all year around. We both en
joyed having them as they were
gay easy to live with people. It
was also nice having baby sit
ters so handy. We were under
the impression that they liked it
too until dad let us know they
were unhappy.
I sensed that something was
afoot when I looked up to see both
my parents eyeing one another
sheepishly waiting for the other to
speak.
“What’s up you two?” I asked.
“You both look mighty guilty?”
“It’s like this, Susy.” Dad be
gan. "We’ve been thinking. You
and your brother have made life
so gol darn easy for us that we re
getting lazy and bored.”
I must have shown surprise be
cause Tnnm spoke hurriedly.
“Everything has been so nice but
we’re not decript yet and want
to be active.”
“But, but,** I sputtered,
“You’ve always worked so hard,
now you can take it easy.
“You hit the nail right on the
head” replied dad. "We miss the
challenge of hard work. Worst
mistake I ever made was giving
up the farm. It gave life some
meaning and purpose. Now all
we’re doing is sitting around and
waiting to die. Aint that right,
Mary?”
Mom nodded, her look pleading
for my understanding. "We can’t
go on like this. I miss having a
garden, canning and our old
place.”
This was way beyond my com
prehension. They’d given up a
drafty old farmhouse with no mod
em conveniences and now lived on
a luxury basis and were discon
tent.
“Tell her what we’ve done,”
coaxed mom.
“We’ve bought ourselves a place.
It’s got a small house on it and
the ground runs down to the high
way. I might build a couple of
cabins on it for tourists.”
“Where?” I asked weakly.
"Twenty five miles from here.
It’s not far.” Mom rambled on ex
citedly, "I still have some of my
old furniture and that will make
it seem more like home.”
“You must be out of your mind,”
I protested.
“Not yet, but we soon would be
if we stayed around here.” Dad
stalked off whistling.
I looked around my home. It
was considered a show place; it’s
beautiful lawns and flowers were
a decorator's dream. Mom and
dad not being satisfied was hard
for me to believe. I thought of
Andy’s place. His was more
luxurious than ours having a pool
and a private golf course. My
parents must have taken leave
of their senses. To give up all
this for a smaller place! I just
couldn’t fathom it. I called Andy
to tell him the news. Oddly enough
he seemed to understand. His
voice coming clearly across the
miles did nothing to soothe me.
“Sis,, I’m not too surprised.
Take a good look at those two.
They are not old and h ve good
years ahead of them. V. .v, dad
beat the pants off of me ; laying
golf last year and yr should
have seen mom drive y new
Jag. They’ve a lot on the hell yet.
You leave them be.”
I hung up more bewi 1 "* ed than
ever feeling that I o ' t know
my own parents. Inside ' a week
they were ready to ’ . ve and
during that time I cc. . Vt help
but notice they’d lost years off
their age.
They consented to let me drive
them out but Mom . r dn’t let
me come in as she d hi t have it
fixed up yet. I left t ra in the
drive and as I pulled away, 1
looked back and saw my dad
pick up mom and ca vy her over
the threshold. It m~ L me fee]
lonely and left out of ’heir lives

WIDE, WONDERFUL
WORLD
BY FRANKLIN J. HEINE ,
Editor, The American Peoples
Encyclopedia
TTVON’T take lightning lightly!
That’s a warning from The
American Peoples Encyclopedia,
based on U. S. census reports
which show that about 400 deaths
a year result from lightning, in
addition to approximately 1,000 in
juries. About niive-tenths of the
casualties are in rural districts,
and five out of six killed by light
ning are men. Using the travel
*.**<••*) / i..
rates of light and sound an ob
server can, by counting the sec
onds between the lightning flash
and the thunder, determine how far
away the flash is. It takes a sound
wave about 72 seconds to travel
15 miles. The time interval be
tween flash and thunder seldom is
more than 70 or 80 seconds.
• • •
Even though you may pride your
self on your vocabulary, don’t be
disturbed if you can’t define some
of the new words that found their
way into our language last year.
For instance, what are “bootlook-
ers,” “rurburbs,” or the “ex-
urbs”? What is a “hooporama”?
In order of their appearance: One
who uses a device to enable him to
watch toll television without pay
ing for it; urban developments
arising from former rural dis
tricts; swank suburbs within com
muting distance; a basketball tour
nament. Whether any of them ever
receive dictionary space depends
largely upon good taste, time, suit
ability and their widespread, con
tinuing use.

What will be happening on
your highways by 1966?
Arthur S. Genet, 46-year-old
President of The Greyhound Cor
poration, has come up with some
exciting predictions.
For instance, he predicts that hy
1966:
America's intercity bus trans
portation industry will be a billion-
dollar-a-year business — more than
twice its present total.
The nation's railroads will have
virtually abandoned the business
of carrying passengers.
Bus routes will grow to an
amazing total.
Building Permits
Oct. 5: H. C. Smith, repairs to
garage, 2148 Main street, $75;
Oct. 9: Eugene Cook, general
repairs to dwelling, 518 Main
street $700.
Oct. 10: J. E. Bickley, one car
garage, 1723 Clarkson avenue,
$200.
Bus of the Future
The number of communities en
tirely dependent upon buses for
public^ transportation will increase
from today’s 50,000 to 100,000.
As for the buses, he envisions:
Many will be powered by ex
citing new engines that are already
undergoing secret tests.
They will be more colorful —
with new type dyes, paints and
metals, adding brilliance to our
highways.
More glass than ever will be
used—they will be virtually picture
windows on wheels.
They will ride more smoothly
and quietly.
They will be lighter in weight
due to the use of new plastics and
still-to-be discovered new metals.
As for the nation itself he says:
More and more people will be
at work.
The average income will rise—
the work week will be shorter—
acations longer—and more people
ill live longer—enjoy retirement
nger.
