The ground was beginn ing to crust over and in some in stances get hard from the hot days and wind. There is still small grain and grasses to be combined but here again most fields are still in good shape in that very little wind ac companied the rain. Even though the rain will keep many people out of the fields they plan to poison, either dusting or spraying, the rain will help to some extent in the control of many insects. This will be particu larly true in regards to aphids and thrips on cotton. The boll weevils and bollworms, however, seem to thrive under such condi tions. The recommendation of a 5 day dusting or spray schedule is al most a must at this time. There are many insecticides on the mar ket with almost as many formu las of each. Information Card 97 will answer most of your cotton insecticide questions. If you did not get one through the mail they are available at the County Ag ent’s office. CHINCH BUG Chinch Bug has been reported in the Pomaria section of the county. This is to be expected as 1 To Attend Assembly In New York T. L. Brooks of Newberry, ad vocates family worship as a deter rent against juvenile delinquency. Mr. Brooks and his wife, Marcia, and young son will serve as dele gates to an eight-day internation al convention of Jehovah’s Wit nesses, scheduled for Yankee stad ium in New York, July 7.14. Mr. Brooks is one minister that is concerned about juvenile delin quency and recommends such meetings as a means of combat ting the increase in crime among youngsters. He also stresses fam ily worship as the strongest wea pon against indifference among juveniles toward God and their responsibilities to their fellowman. “In this age of expediency,” he said, “many would rather see a good example than be one. In a competitive world, setting a good example is not always convenient or advantageous. Thus,” he said, “bad examples flourish. Rudeness is excused as haste. Lying and hypocrisy are masqueraded as dip lomacy. Tough talk proves man hood and as for cheating at school —well, ‘everybody does it.’ ” Deteriorating morals have been described under the heading of a psychological safety valve,” h e continued, “and there is a lack of emphasis placed upon Christian pr'nciples. It has been said, ‘You ay not be totally worthless— the chinch bug moves from grain you cou i(i se rve as a bad example.” fields into adjoining fields aft the grain is cut. The rain that was mentioned as helping control of thrips and aphids will be of help in the control of the chinch bug. In the event an insecticide is necessary for their control Para- thion will probably give the best results, remember to use safety precautions when applying and a two week waiting time before crop can be foraged or harvested. Sevin may be used and it is safer to apply but not as effective. JUNE DAIRY MONTH Just because it is not mentioned every day on the radio or in the Mr. Brooks said the purpose for setting a good example is for oth ers to copy. In quoting Dr. Angelo Patri, Mr. Brooks made this obser vation from the book “How To Help Your Child Grow Up”: “Par ents have to discipline themselves, make good models, set good pat terns for children. You cannot teach religion to a child unless you possess it in your mind and soul and practice it while you live out your days beside him. If you have not kept faith with your children, it is idle for you to send him for religious instruction. What you are, he knows; what you do, he newspapers let’s not forget this registers as his p at t e rn. Would is Dairy Month. Milk and milk products are the most nearly per fect food and should be included in our daily diet. Milk was available to our young sters daily while they were going to school so why not have even more for them while they are at home. Milk and milk products can be fixed in so many delicious ways or just served plain. In the mid dle of the morning and afternoon as well as at mealtime have milk. It’s good!! 4-H CAMP The 4-H Club boys and girls this year will be going to sum mer 4-H Camp at Camp -Long, I near Aiken, July 15-19. Those who have never attended Camp have a treat in store for them. Those who have been in the past know the enjoyment of camping. 1418 Main Street Phone 276-1422 144 Pedestrian Deaths Listed Motor vehicle traffic accidents in South Carolina resulted in the deaths of 144 pedestrians last year, one of them in Newberry County, the State Highway de partment reports. There were 1.119 accidents re- , ported last year in which pedes- ? trians were involved. In addition to the fatalities, 1,014 pedestrians were injured.

Love Him and do His will and they will go along with you. What you would be, expresses | in your daily example.” Mr. Brooks said family worship is more than taking your child ren to church, or worse, sending them. He says it is a matter of each member of the family under standing and appreciating a prop-* er relationship with God and how it can be maintained. “Good discipline is teaching a child what is expected of him,” he said. “It means setting down rules and regulations he will follow. Children need a clear-cut, uncon fused picture of the rules you expect them to keep. It is nec essary that these rules have a strong foundation such as the Bible,” he said. In concluding, Mr. Brooks said stronger laws and tougher en forcement are not the answer' to juvenile delinquency. He said such delinquency is the result of the break-down in morals among adults. He also pointed to the I changing views the world has ad opted on moral values. “I read recently an article by Dr. Benjamin Spock,” he said, “on the subject of punishment and he said this: ‘Punishment is the substitute, emergency method when the regular system of discip line breaks down. Even then pun ishment doesn’t do much good un less there is sound character un derneath and a loving relation ship, as all the cases of habitual criminals prove. Good discipline is mainly based on mutual love and respect. In childhood it has to be reinforced with teaching, firm ness and reminders.” “This thought certainly harmon izes with the Bible when it states at Proverbs 22:6, ‘Train up a boy according to the way for him; even when he grows old he will not turn aside from it.” Mr. Brooks said conventions of Jehovah’s Witnesses are designed as a regular part of their educa tional program and are designed for all members of the family. All will assemble when the first ses sion commences at Yankee stadium July 7th, equipped with notebook, Bible and willing ear—ready to learn together.

NEWBERRY COUNTY BOARD OF COMMISSIONERS 20-27 Looking A. bead ...by Dr. Georg* S. Benson PRESlOENT—NATIONAL EDUCATION PROGRAM Seercy, Arkansas ELECTION POST-MORTEM We hope that the result of the recent wheat referendum will serve as a notice to the U. S. de partment of Agriculture and to the Congress that this particular segment of America’s farmers want less, not more, federal inter vention and control. If the vote for stringent wheat controls had been yes, this might have meant closing the door to a free agricul ture Already having a foot in the door toward full management of the nation’s farmers, the USD A wanted to take a full step that could have led quickly to controls across the board. “Satisfactory farm programs are difficult to formulate.” Thus began a pre-election folder dis tributed by the Extension Service to Arkansas wheat growers. You can certainly say that again and again. You don’t need to tell the farmer, however, for he knows it well enough. Congress, after many perennial failures of its efforts to “do something,” should be getting the message that the farmer does not want to be regimented. This idea apparently has not occurred to Secretary Freeman, who un doubtedly will try again to obtain the power to say who, what and when to farmers. Preparing To Vote Regardless of the outcome of the recent election, the power- seekers will not give up. Since other “elections” may be attempt ed in the future, certain conclu sions might be drawn from the conduct of this one. First of all, one might wonder whether it is advisable to have an election con ducted by an agency that is far from impartial. The Secretary was insisting to the last that he could tell no faimer how to vote, yet his propaganda was flowing out from Washington in a tidal wave. He himself was declaring on the eve of the election that a favorable vote meant $2 wheat, an oversim plification that could easily de ceive. Apparently the USD A was hop ing the small farmer would not influence the results, for the vot ing was made difficult for the small farmer. He alone was re quired to register in advance and to declare himself ready to partic ipate in the program if it was accepted. Doesn’t it seem obvious that such tactics could have kept some from voting ? Who Should Vote? The Secretary also called May 21 “an important day” for the wheat farmer. What he did not say was that it also was an im portant day for other kinds of farmers, especially feeders of cat tle. Considerations of freedom aside, how would a wheat farmer who also grows livestock and buys feed make a decision about his vote? And what of every consum er and every taxpayer, for all have an economic stake in this complicated problem. This was more than an election in whidh, as the Secretary announced, the farmer would set the price for his 1964 wheat. As to the election procedures, the USD A, while making small growers “elect” to participate in order to Vote, allowed the vote to both tenants and landlords, hus bands and wives, and even children of wheat farmers who share in the crop. The government appears to have been trying to do everything possible to get itself a favorable vote. Various farm groups and as sociations Were fighting out the issues and calling for yes or no votes, but this is an entirely dif ferent thing from government at tempts at influencing the referen dum. The Important Issue But freedom was apparently the big issue. It is significant that all Americans are freeholders of important rights and privilege# from which they ought not be dis possessed. Farmers are perhaps the freest of all, and it is no sec ret that they will suffer economic disadvantage«/n qfder to keep a# much freedom of action as pos sible. But when the market is les# free as a result of government in tervention, so that the individual has to be coerced by bureaucratic . decrees, we all suffer. Any man’s loss of freedom hurts me. Despite attempts to influence the vote, wheat growers have turn ed down the certificate plan. The power hungry may try again. let us remain forewarned that pro posals for government manage ment, if accepted, can one by one* take away freedom. Whether these are “programs” established by Congress or beguilements of power-seeking politicians, we shall have to keep saying NO if we are to keep America from being engulfed in the socialist wave of the future. Striped Bass In Lake Murray COLUMBIA.-—The first success ful rearing of striped bass in a hatchery pond has been completed by the Wildlife Resources depart ment with the release of 3,700 lit tle stripers in Lake Murray. The fish had been brought up from the department’s hatchery on the Santee-Cooper tailrace canal around the middle of May, when they were one day old and about the size of the head of a pin. They had been held in. a three-quarter acre pond at the Four-County hatchery near Newberry. Although there is always heavy mortality among freshly-hatched fish, the survivors grew rapidly reaching an average size of 2.4 inches in the month they were held before re lease. This is the latest step in the department’s efforts to get strip ed bass established in up-state reservoirs, which began in 1955 with the transfer of 300 adult stripers from Santee-Cooper, av eraging 10 pounds, to Lake Green wood. Since then 35,000 fish, some adults but mostly fingerlings, have been released in Murray, Greenwood, Catawba - Wateree, Clark Hill, Hartwell and other To Wash Cars The Senior MYF of Central Methodist church will sponsor .a car wash on June 29 from 1:00 to 7:00 P.

Sm *i Going Steady - With Uncle Sam’s Help THE WEEK’S LETTER: “This concerns a statement made in your column to the effect that “there is no such thing as going steady once a week.” This is not necessarily correct, because go ing steady does not require con stant companionship. I am young, almost seventeen. I began dating a boy in another town when I was thirteen. We began going steady when fifteen. Because we live so far apart, sometimes we can’t see each other for three weeks or a month. But since we are very fond of each "'er and do not date others, we constant in our letter writing. Don't you consider this going steady?” OUR REPLY: You have raised a technical point which we con sider quite unimportant. A mother in Mississippi, for instance, would have absolutely no objection to a thirteen-year-old daughter “going steady” with a fifU i3n-year-old boy who lived in Fairbanks, Alaska. Let the lad move to the same town in Mississippi, though, and mother would immediately become concerned. The thing that is most wrong with boys and girls “going steady” in their early teens is this con stant companionship to which you refer. They want to devote their full time and attention to one an other. They tend to become obliv ious to tiie things that go on around them. The things in life that are really important mean nothing at all to them. They just want “to be together,” in their own private little world. When they grow older, boys and girls begin to realize that, while love is indeed “wonderful,” there are other important things in life. Young people must learn to do things. They must prepare them selves, through education, appli cation and training, to make their way in the world; to become teachers, tradesmen — and par ents. To do this, they must from time to time bring their heads down from the clouds.
