Therefore, regardless of whether a case is made in a rural area or in a city o! town, the conviction will count toward license suspension. The checking of driver licenses in the road check program result ed in 27 drunken drivers being caught in one patrol district dur ing a recent weekend. Similar good res-ults are being reported from districts throughout the State. Cities And Towns Are Cooperating With S. C. H. D. Through a program of coopera tion worked out by the State Highway Patrol and local law en forcement agencies, traffic law violators are now finding it diffi cult to avoid detection, it was an nounced Monday by the State Highway department. In other words, violators have “no place to go” to avoid arrest, officials ex plained. The Highway patrol has stepp- ep up its program of driver lic ense “checks” and this work is being extensively supplemented by county and city enforcement ag encies. This program of coopera tion is now very helpful in that the Patrol does not ordinarily op erate within the corporate limits of cities and towns. An increasing number of cases are being made by state and local officers against op erators driving under the influence of drugs or alcoholic beverages, drivers operating without motor licenses or licenses under suspen sion, and mechanically unsafe vehicles. All convictions based on cases made by local authorities are reported to the Highway depart- Fine Arts Club Hears Mrs. Julian A most unique program on the subject, “How To Know Your An cestors” was presented by Mrs. Fred Julian to the members of the Newberry Fine Arts club at their November meeting held at the home of Mrs. Walter Beck. During the social period Mrs. Beck served refreshments accom panied by the buzzing of voices of the club members as they dis cussed the various aspects of knowing their ancestors.

A Time To Remember Who We Are Let us be grateful for our heritage. For a little pride is the wellspring of courage. Let us endure unflinchingly whatever sacrifices we are called upon to make to defend our free institutions from the night of communism, which is bent On undermining our faith in ourselves. Let us rely not only on the gold in our vaults, but the iron in our blood. And let us cling like ivy to the faith of our fathers until, in God’s good time, all men are free.

FARM jjj^P NOTESlCBia: Ul(l||<||f iiiiiim By COUNTY AGENTS Farm and City People Are Partners In Progress We in America today enjoy the highest standard of living of any nation at any time in the history of the world. We point with pride to our nations position of world leadership. The contributions of all seg ments of our economy and the co operation and fine working rela tionship existing between agricul ture, industry and Businesses throughout the nation are respon sible for this prenomenal progress. The future growth of our econo my depends greatly on the contin ued close cooperation of agricul ture, industry, and business. These relationships form a two-way street in which each benefits from the other. Every group has special prob lems not well understood by oth ers. Great changes have taken place in agriculture, industry and business; and our labor force is expanding rapidly as individuals demand more goods and services. It is importnat that each of us un derstands the functions and prob lems of all segments of our econo my and the ways in which each has contributed to the progress of our nation. It is appropriate that, we ob serve Farm-City Week through out the United States and Canada at this time each year, the week ending with Thanksgiving Day. A time for bringing neighbors to gether to create a better under standing of the way of life of free men and the ways in which the cooperation of farm and city peo ple contribute to the progress of our great nation. Agriculture must become more efficient and more attention must be given to conservation of soil, water, woodlands, and other natur al resources in order to feed and clothe additional people in our rap idly increasing population. Indus try must grow and expand in or der to create more products and employ more people. Of necessity, expansion brings with it speciali zation, and specilization means a lesser understanding of what the “other fellow” does. So, while we become more de pendent upon the other fellow—be cause he produces the things we need and cannot produce for our selves—we also understand less of what he does, how he earns his wage or salary, how he and his family live, how he meets his ev eryday problems. Farm-City Week programs and activities provide opportunities for better under standing between people who live on farms and others who live in cities. Although the percentage of the national population actually en gaged in farming has decreased until it is only about eleven per cent, still agriculture and its re lated workers constitute the larg est industry in America. Some for ty percent of the nation's workers are engaged in agriculture and its corollaries. Understanding be tween this group and other groups is essential to our continued growth and progress. Many people steeped in the tra ditions or problems of their own economy fail to appreciate the contribution by others to sustain the welfare of that economy. “Am I my brother’s keeper?” was said by a farmer. Each of us has a responsibility to contribute to the building of an understand ing among all people that will withstand the storms and flood of selfishness and utter disregard for the rights of others. Farmers are vitally dependent upon industrial products to oper ate their business. City people are farmers’ customers. These two are dependent upon one another. Family unit farms have been and will always be the foundation of a free nation. Unregimented they are the cornerstone of a self- sustinence, free speech, religious freedom and national leaders . . . A bulwark against Communism. Farming is the most indispens able occupation on the face of this earth. But in no other nation have farmers brought so many other occupations into partnerships with them. One of the greatest bless ings from this—and seeming one which is little understood and lit tle appreciated — is the beneficial cycle that this partnership touches off. One hour of farm labor today produces four times as much food and other crops as it did in 1919- 21. Crop production is 65 per cent higher per acre now than then. Output per breeding animal is 88 per cent higher. This rise in effi ciency has been attributed to the result of farmers being more skill ful and better educated, more will ing to adopt new methods, more adept at managing their resources, and of their being better served by a myriad of industries, research organizations, educational institu tions, information media and com munications facilities, government and financial organizations and others. The nearly $200 billion invested in farming equals about 75 per L EFTOVER boiled potatoes can be cubed and combined with leftover ham slivers.

Ground lamb patties can be wrapped in bacon and broiled along with peaches and cooked potatoes brushed with butter and paprika for a hasty broiler meal. Like cube steaks? Pan broil them, smothered with green on ions cut into pieces. You can serve these with heated potato chips or quick-frozen French fried pota toes. Canned or leftover fruits can be made into delicious cobblers by using ready-mixed and cut bis cuits as a topping. Serve with cream while still warm.

Mrs. Paschal Guest Garden Club Council Mrs. Gary Paschal of Columbia, President of the Garden Clubs of South Carolina was honor guest of the Council of Newberry Gar den clubs Wednesday at a lunch eon in the Newberry Community Hall. The luncheon tables in the his toric old hall were decorated with fall foliage and the guest table was decorated not only with fol iage but tall brass holders of fruit and grapes. About 60 local garden club mem bers attended. Scientists tell us the average man now lives 32 years longer than in 1800. The poor guy has to, in order to get his bills paid. cent of the value of the current as sets of all the corporations in America. Farmers buy about $26 billion worth of production supplies each year, and spend an additional $15 billion a year for their personal and household needs. Farming employs 7.5 million workers—more than the combined employment in transportation, pub lic utilities, the steel industry and the automotive industry. When the food processing and distribution organizations and the companies providing products and services to farmers are included in the total, we find that four out of every ten jobs in private industry are relat ed to agriculture. In a world in which most people spend at least half of their in come for food, American spend only one-fifth of their disposable income for this necessity. It is no wonder our standard of living can be so high, when 80 percent of our disposable income can go into housing, into the products of in dustry, into education, recreation, medical care and so forth. These figures leave no doubt as to why highly efficient agricul ture is desirable for the public wel fare. Farm-City Week is designated to highlight and augment the ac complishments of a year-round program of rural-urban under standing. It is proper and fitting that it should fall during the Thanksgiving period, for after all, we are grateful for those physical blessings which flow from the farm. When farm and city people have a chance to get together, they learn more about each other. They glean facts instead of rumors—de velop friendships instead of mis understanding. All this comes about to the benefit of both groups. We stand challenged in the name of progress to cultivate this sort of understanding. A mutual understanding must exist between farmer, laborer and capitalist so that all segments move forward to meet the chal lenge of a growing nation with growing needs. The man in the field, the man in the factory and the man in the office must view a successful balanced economy with unselfish thinking, “Partners in Progress.” Rev. ROBERT B. HARPER AUGUST A UGUSTUS CAESAR was rath- I* er hard on some of his sub jects. And the month named for him is rather trying so far as tem perature is concerned But we find that it has been a great month in our history as a nation, for several great dates in our history fell in August, proof of the fact that the weather cannot crush the American spirit. It was on August 7 that the War Department was established in 1789, the Panama Canal was opened August 15, 1914, woman suffrage began on August 16, 1920, and Japan surrendered to the United States on August 14, 1945 So let us be up and doing JUST A THOUGHT: It is interesting to note that many of the greatest men in history were always quick to give someone else part of the credit for their successes in life. this August. If our people have done so much in the hot August days of the past, how much should we be able to accomplish with air conditioning and all the devices for combatting heat! Let us consider the fact that man, of all the animals, has been able to conquer his environment and live in every clime from the lands of ice and snow to the tor rid places of earth. I am now reminded of some lines on the cover of a scratch tablet I had at school—“Honor and shame from no condition rise, do well your part, there all the honor Ups.” Roberts Attends Bankers Meeting* Joe M.
