F. claims “what little I have, Mrs. Hawkins deserves most of the credit for my getting it.” He says proudly that he was the ninth of ten children and Mrs. Hawkins, being one of thirteen, beat him on that score and has been way ahead of him ever since. Mrs. Hawkins attended New berry College, worked in the mill office, and as a result of her past experience does most of the man aging around the “Myrtledale Farms.” Myrtledale is a 230 acre farm just a few miles from New berry and in addition to the 230 acres, Mr. Hawkins rents 415 acres with 100 acres for his herd which is composed of 180 regist ered Guernseys. When asked about what parti cular hobbies Mr. Hawkins had, he replied, “well we have two fishing ponds and that is Mrs. Hawkins hobby, but about two years ago I got interested in poli tics and I guess you would con sider that, *not only a hobby, but a full tim^ job.” Incidentally, Mr. “Jesse Frank” has been recently re-elected to the South Carolina House of Representatives which will put him back in office for his second term. He enjoyed a margin Of 1194 votes' Over his nearest opponent.
