It happened 100 YEARS ago The oldest incorporated trade association in the country, the United States Brewers Association, was organized in 1862 ... the same year that IN SOUTH CAROLINA, the Confederates won the only two major land battles fought in the state, first at Secessionville on James Island and later at Old Pocotaligo or Yemassee. The Federals lost 1,023 of 8,062 men engaged, and the Confederates 367 out of 1,875. Even then, beer was South Carolina’s traditional beverage of moderation. Beer still provides en joyment for South Carolinians, and a good living for many of them —not only employees of the brewing industry itself, but also for South Caro lina farmers and other suppliers of materials brewers use. TODAY, in its centennial year, the United States Brewers Association still works constantly to as sure maintenance of high standards of quality and propriety wherever beer and ale are served. a <o\rY Jv J Patio living has become so popular with the American family that all new houses are considered incomplete if a patio is not included in the plans. A fence about the patio gives a feeling of an outdoor room, but also provides privacy in neighborhoods where houses are built close together. There are many fence de signs to choose from. Local builders and lumber com panies have plans from which you can choose. Movable furniture and flower tubs or pots give versatility to this outdoor living area. They can be arranged according to the season and whims of the homemaker. If you are planning to up-grade your patio, be sure to consider views of your garden and flower bed arrangements ITGoQ© Qdq W W w — The Capitol was established in Washington, August 17, 1790.

ROBERT H. HARPER LABOR DAY L ABOR DAY we may trunk ot the history and the vaiue of Commemorative days that haw been holy days in the esteem of this or that race or nation As we range in thought through the past ages, we find that one f the earli est of observances was the feast of the Passover that commemo rated the birth night of the He brew nation, when the Jewish people escaped out of bondage in Egypt. Then we think of the sa cred days of other races. JUST A THOUGHT: Sometimes it is possible to exert more effort avoiding some particular task or as signment than would be re quired to tackle the job and see it through to completion. As we think of Labor Day, we realize that it is important to our people, for we see the value of giving attention in a serious way to the relation of labor and cap ital and to the rights of each. And it should be remembered, as ever remembered, that the third party In all the transactions of labor and capital is the vast number of the American people, affected by what is done in the industry of the Country. So let us prepare for Labor Day on Urn Sabbath preceding by true worship that will fill our hearts with affection for our brothers and cause us to lift our hearts in true faith to the Heav enly Father. It is not too much to hope that this year’s Labor Day shaD foster a unity among our people that win be as a bul wark in this “age on ages teUing.” From. Mrs. M. Flanagan, lind- ley. New York: “I don’t remem ber ’the good old days’. I hear about them and that is enough. ’Remember when we moved Schoonmaker*s outhouse down to the tracks . . .” and ’The Hallo ween we took the tires off the Model A and put them on the barn roof. Kids of today chalk win dows and ’Old Timers' are ready to send them to jaiL I have four boys and every one stands when a lady enters the room. They say, ’yes, sir* and ’yes, Mr. ’ . . . (This is for the old timer who said kids of today are not cour teous.). My boys are 8, 4, 1 and 3 months. I am teaching them to be polite and to respect their elders and I believe if you take the time you will find that there are more polite children than ‘rude, arro gant and self-centered ones.’ Children always find trouble and mine are no different, but I re member the trouble I got into, and my parents before me. The ‘trouble’ changes with the times, but the children change, too. My parents were told they were too ‘hard’ on my sister and me; now they tell us we are too ‘hard’ on our children. Children need discipline and all have faults but they have good qualities also and should be encouraged and not •picked on’ because they forgot to stand up or say, ‘sir’. Think hard and remember some of the pranks you pulled and I’m sure you were no better than to day’s children. You just look at the picture with different glasses on By LINDA NORRIS S OME time ago Ruth Welcome and her zither debuted on Capi tol and it was a happy experience for music fans . . .

Teachers Hear Naval Officer The Newberry County Depart ment of Classroom Teachers met in the library of Newberry High School at 2:15 p.m. on November 15. Appropriate devotions were conducted by the chaplain, Mrs. Maude Matthews. After reports were heard from the various com mittees, the president, Mrs. Mar gery Williamson, reported on the Southeastern Regional Classroom Teachers meeting held recently in Louisville, Kentucky. Miss Pearle Stockman introduc ed the guest speaker, Captain C. H. Whitten, Commanding Officer of the Naval ROTC unit and pro fessor of Naval Science and Edu cation at the University of South Carolina. He is a native of Vir ginia. He received his Masters degree in 1922 and in 1951, he re ceived a degree from the Naval War College. He has held a num ber of important command and staff duties, the last of which was that of operational planning offi cer for Underseas Warfare, on the staff of Commander in Chief, U. S. Atlantic Fleet and U. S. Atlan tic Command. Captain Whitten used as his subject, “Naval Leadership.” His educational background and prac tical experience made him well qualified to speak on the subject. He pointed out that some of the same qualifications of Naval lead ership are found in the succussful teacher. After referring to the charac teristics of a number of former great leaders such as George Washington, Robert E. Lee and World War leaders, he emphasiz ed the importance of practicing the Golden Rule and treating peo ple like people. He summed up the qualifications of a good leader under six categories: 1. Professional competence, which is very necessary for any leader; 2. Self-confidence, which [is a quality a leader must have if he is to inspire confidence in others; 3. Enthusiasm begets en thusiasm. A leader must believe in what he is about to do; 4. In tegrity is absolutely necessary. A leader must be fair but strict. Subordinates have no respect for slackness in discipline. A leader must be open-minded and tactful. He must keep his promises; 5. Hu man understanding, including good plain common sense is nec essary; 6. Pride is our moral and spirltutal heritage and pride in a job well done is to be encouraged. Captain Whitten concluded by stating that the classroom teacher must share the load of teaching the basic values of our American Heritage. This will pay off, to a large extent, in the preservation of our nation. Legar Pads & Ledger Sheets The Sun Office CLflSSIFIEDM.IcS ‘ ads * ^ FOR RENT — 3-room ground apartment.
