Mr. and Mrs. Howard Cook, Jr. Retired Group Hears Coates A very enthusiastic group of re tired teachers met at Junior High Thursday to hear the state presi dent of South Carolina Retired Teachers Association talk about the importance of forming a group in each county. Pres. J. P. Coates gave a fine report of the rapid growth of the state organization in the past year, saying that there are now nearly 800 members, who pay dues of only $1.00 and in turn receive many benefits. The main benefit secured last year waS the formation of group insurance with a reliable company at reas onable rates. Plans are being made to have a luncheon at the state teachers’ convention and an in spiring program. Mr. Coates then reviewed the history of the State Retirement System, explaining the financial soundness, the care with* which it is administered by Tatum Gres- sette, the many advantages it has since it has brought Social Secur ity to retired teachers and state employees, and the changes that have been made by a few amend ments to improve the income of retired members. He presented the request to be made this year for another amendment that will bring about a raise in the retired salary of the older teachers, par ticularly those who retired long ago before the days of social se curity. There were 33 teachers present and greetings from ten who are now too incapacitated to attend. The consensus was that an asso ciation should be formed in the county of teachers who taught and retired in the county and of those who taught in other coun ties but now live in Newberry County. The following officers were elected: President, Miss Julia Kibler; Vice-president, Wilbur Epting; Secretary, Miss Dorothy Buz- hardt, and Treasurer, Miss Sudie Dennis. Miss Kibler appointed the leg islative committee so that they might begin work now since the legislature is in session. Wilbur Epting was made chairman with the following other members: Miss Corrie Lei Havird, Mrs. Raymond Fellers, Mrs. Josie McAlhaney, Mrs. Geneva Bickerstaff. Any retired teacher who is int erested will please contact the president or secretary as soon as possible. Mr. Coates is very anx ious to get a complete list of re tired te. hers living in Newberry County.

Loose Wheel Blamed For Derailment A loose whsel on an axle of a boxcar was believed to be the reason for the derailment of 19 units of the Clinton, Newberry and Laurens railroad here Sunday at about 4:30 pjn. The coal gondolas and box cars, some of the latter loaded with beer and whisky, wound up in a twisted and torn mass after they jumped the tracks about three miles north of New berry. Traffic was moving again on the CN&L Monday night, about 24 hours after the derailment. A pass track was cleared about 5 p. m. and the first train passed by shortly afterwards. J. H. Looney Sr., roadmaster, said that it would take at least two days to clear the main track and transfer the cargo from the wrecked cars. He said 700 feet of track was ' damaged by the Sunday afternoon derailment. Conductor J. E. Hipp, 61, who was riding in the caboose of the freight train, was taken to New berry County Memorial Hospital where it was found that his in juries were not serious. L. S. Ful mer, flagman who also was riding in the caboose, was shaken up but not injured. F. W. Quattlebaum of Columbia, formerly of Prosperity, was at the throttle, according to Mr. Ful mer. The accident occurred near a gas line and for a time it was feared fire might break out. Mr .Fulmer said the train, con sisting of 65 cars, was traveling about 30 miles an hour when it derailed. The 12th car from the locomotive jumped the tracks and 18 others followed suit. Some of the cars dug holes several feet deep and were partially buried in the soft earth. They were hurled helter skelter over a wide area and the rails were twisted and torn. In addition to beer and whisky, the derailed cars contained a mis cellaneous cargo including coal, paper, agricultural supplies and ointment. Hundreds of spectators flocked to the wreck scene.

On the church calendar, the day is known as Shrove Tuesday, pre ceding Ash Wednesday, the first day of Lent. It was the ancient custom to go to the priest, confess one’s sins, and be shriven. Par don, or absolution of sins, was received before the beginning of Lent. The day is also known at Pan cake Tuesday because the people | cooked pancakes to use all the grease in the house, as no meat was to be eaten during the forty days of Lent. In the early church there was an arduous period of fasting and penitence in prepara tion of Easter. By the time of Pope Gregory the Great (about 600 A.D.) the fast was preceded by a feast of three days. From this the custom of the carnival arose. Masks and costumes began to be used to portray mythological gods, other characters, ideas and events. The custom of Pancake Tuesday spread into France, and became known as the Mardi-Gras (Fat Tuesday.) In the United States, the Mardi- Gras is observed with the most elaborate festival in New Orleans. A gigantic and brilliant parade features gaudy costumes and col orful floats in a spirit of revelry and fun making. Masked balls and other parties add to the gaity. It is truly a last “fling” before the somber observance of Lent. It is the wish of the congrega tion of St. Luke’s to make this Shrove Tuesday pancake supper an annual event, to which the whole community will look for- HOSPITAL BIRTHS Recent arrivals at Newberry County Memorial Hospital include: Billie Denise, five pound, nine ounce daughter born Jan. 23 to Mr. and Mrs. William Clyde Pow ell. 2814 Clyde Ave. Mrs. Powell is the former Miss Madeline Lu- cretia Bodie.

It is frightening, he declared, that in 43 years this ideology has spread over one-fourth of the world and now controls al most a billfon people. He said the Reds are pouring men and money into Latin Am erica, their No. 1 target for 1961, and there is danger of violence and upheaval in 14 countries with strong anti-Unit- ed States feeling in many oth ers. -“Whether we like it or not,” he continued, “Castro has be come a hero to “the underdog” in South America.” Mr. Smith said the most pow erful radio station in Latin Am erica is being built in Havana to carry Communist propagan da. He referred to the book, “The Ugly American” in citing ex amples of U. S. officials’ inef fectiveness in other countries. The speaker approves of Ken nedy’s realistic presentation >f the dangers, and he believe; f \e President can unite the free world in a positive and creative program that will turn the tide against communism. The speaker recommended reading “What We Must Know About Communism,” by the Ov erstreets; “Masters of Deceit,” J. Edgar Hoover; “Protracted Conflict, edited by the Foreign Relations Department of the University of Pennsylvania; “Witness”, Whittaker . Chamb ers; “You Can Trust the Com munists,” Dr. Fred Schwartz, and “The Molding of a Commun ist.” Mr. Smith favors a strong program of action, strengthen ing of our technical aid program , to other countries, remaining militarily strong and developing . a stronger dedication to “our way of life.” He believes “economic human- Wi . ism” would be a better term for our system than the word capitalism.” At the risk of repetition, Three Cheers for Mr. Smith! This year Shrove Tuesday hap pens to fall on St. Valentine’s Day, so it is suggested by St. Luke members that “you bring your sweetheart to the pancake supper.” Guardsmen Are Promoted 1 Captain William M.
