Club Meets At
Kohn Nursery
The Newberry Garden club held
its April 14 meeting at Hal Kohn’s
nursery, which furnished a lovely
setting with many and varied
spring flowers in bloom. Mr. Kohn
Mrs. Price J. Padgett and Mrs.
T. J. Eskridge served refresh
ments.
Mr. Kohn gave club members
some hints on growing iris, and
said that several iris gardens in
this vicinity would be in bloom
during the next few weeks.
He told the group that iris
should be sprayed to eliminate
spots. A rose spray may be used.
Bone meal should be used when
planting iris, he said, and the
plants should be “fed” about
four times a year. Iris need half
a day of sunshine, Mr. Kohn said.
He also advised that the clumps
be divided into no more than
three smaller clumps, and to
leave foliage on the plants afiAr
the blooms are gone to carry sun
shine into the plants.
Mrs. J. E. Wiseman Sr., who
is president of the club, opened
the meeting with the club collect
and expressed the club’s pleasure
at the opportunity of meeting at
the nursery. She thanked Mr.
Kohn for his hospitality.
During the business session, re
ports of officers were given. It
was reported that cards had been
sent to club members Mrs. Hugh

THE
YANKEE AD MAN RETIRES
TO A SOUTHERN ACCENT
LJ ALF-WAY down through een-
L A tral Georgia, in a town called
Forsyth, sits a Yankee advertis
ing man who has found the Golden
Years.
His name is Edgar L. Weibrecht,
once with the advertising depart
ment of Firestone and for 16 years
following World War II with the
B.B.D. & O. Advertising Agency
in Cleveland, Ohio. He retired in
1961.
“I read in your column in Octo
ber, 1961, a story about retirement
in Clemson, South Carolina,” he
says. “Your readers may be inter
ested to know what has happened
to me since.
“I wrote the Clemson Chamber
of Commerce for its retirement
booklet because Mrs. Weibrecht
and I had already selected the
Southeast as our retirement des
tination. On December 1 of that
year we made our move, driving
through the Carolinas, making
many stops, and finally visiting
Clemson.
“We drove on to Georgia, and
eventually to Florida . .
They spent a month in Florida.
Their plan was to find a town they
liked, then spend six months siz
ing up the place before buying.
“So, in our quandary,” he says,
“we elected to come back up to
Forsyth, which was the home of
some relatives and a place we
had visited a number of times.
We planned to remain there until
after the Masters Gold Tourna
ment in Augusta.
“We arrived in January, and
rented a large, furnished ante
bellum home. Shortly thereafter,
while spending an evening chat
ting with a nearby motel owner,
one of the town's young go-getters
joined us. He was quite interested
in my advertising background...”
Almost before he knew what
was happening, Mr. Weibrecht
says, the go-getter had committed
him to give a talk before the
town’s council and the county
commissioners (Monroe County)
to tell them what he thought of
the Forsyth community. The talks
went well.
“By March 6,” he continues, “I
found myself in office as executive
secretary of the Monroe County
Chamber of Commerce. But my
arrangement was that 50 per cent
of my time would go for golf, and
50 per cent for the Chamber.”
In the following months Mr.
Weibrecht found such absorbing
interest in the Chamber job that
golf moved into second place. “I
had promised to remain on the
job only until after the Masters
Tournament. But as it happened
April came and went. Then I set
the date for early summer. Then
fall. Then January 1. Now I don’t
know ..
And in the meantime he has
become a consultant to the Geor
gia State Department of Com
merce, and he and Mrs. Weibrecht
have moved from their ante-bel
lum home.
What about Forsyth and Mon
roe County? Executive Secretary
Weibrecht has prepared a Cham
ber of Commerce booklet about it
(which you can have by writing
him at Forsyth, Ga.) and which
leaves little doubt that the area
must be a suburb of the Garden
of Eden.

Book Report Is
Club Subject
The Woman’s Club held its
April meeting at the home of Mrs.
Steve Griffith Sr. Mrs. Elmer
Shealy, 2nd vice president, opened
the meeting w~lth the reading of
the club collect in unison.
After a brief business session,
Mrs. H. B. Wilson introduced
Mrs. James C. Kinard as speaker
for the afternoon. Mrs. Kinard
reviewed the book “The Shoes of
the Fisherman” by Morris L. West
in a most interesting and infor
mative manner.
As an introduction to the re
view, Mrs. Kinard read a note
from the author:
“Rome is a city older than the
Cathobc church. Everything that
could happen has happened there
and no doubt will happen again.
This is a book set in fictional time,
peopled with fictional characters.”
Highlights from Mrs. Kinard’s
review follow:
“The Pope was dead,” Morris L.
West says in his opening sentence.
“On the 3rd day they would bury
him, in his splendid robes and in
his three caskets of cypress, of
lead and of elm, and then they
would call together the Cardinals
of the Sacred college and ask
these princes of the church to
elect a new Pope.”
The theme of the novel is what
might happen to the world in the
atomic age were a Russian now
the head of the Roman Catholic
church.
The author was in Rome as a
journalist when Pope John XXIII
was elected. This impressive event
gave, him the inspiration to write
his story as an element of imagi
nation prophecy. The narrative is
realistic and true to traditions,
the policies and the practices of
the church., A Roman Catholic
himself, the author has no diffi
culty in depicting characters who
are true to life and church events
that are authentic.
In describing the election of
the new Pope the writer gives a
vivid portrayal of the world situ
ation as it it today. Leone, the
Dean of the Sacred College, and
Rinaldi, the Papal treasurer had
planned together their cleric. He
had been proclaimed a Cardi'ial
only a few days before the death
of the Pope.
No one could forsee that thi#
time the identity of the man cho
sen would proivde an astonishing
surprise, not only to the world at
large but to the Cardinals them~
selves. Surely it must have been
the Divine hand that was laid up
on Kiril Cardinal Dakota, the
Ukranian, youngest Cardinal of
them all and aprisoner of the
Russians for 17 years in Siberia^
Intimately acquainted with the
Russian dictator, Kamenev, the
new Pope might in addition to the
compassion and understanding he
could be expected to bring to his
exalted office, serve as a desper
ately needed bridge between East
and West in a time of peril.
Mr. West builds his idea into
an engrossing story that adroitly
cc^bines Kiril challenging prob
lems with the love affair of Amer
ican newspaperman. *
The story enabled the author to
take his readers on a dazzling
tour of the Eternal City. He shows
the Rome of la dolce vita, the
Rome of the Statesman and best
of all that majestic and myster
ious citadel within the city, the ^
Vatican. Catholic and non-Catho-
lic alike will be caught and held
by the overriding importance of
the book's central theme, the role
of the church in the atomic age.
