For Supervisor
Carman Bouknight, who is com
pleting his eighth year as Com
missioner of District 1, is a can
didate for the office of Supervisor
in the June 9th Democratic pri
mary.
Mr. Bouknight, age 45, was born
and reared in Newberry County,
son of Lucy Cromer and Willie
Floyd Bouknight. He is married
to the former Miss LilHan Hend
rix, who is a daughter of Eula
Dennis and Marcus B. Hendrix of
the Trinity Community. Their
children are Melvin, a senior at
Newberry College, and Sylvia, a
student at Speers Street school.
The Bouknights are members of
Trinity Methodist Church, where
he has served as superintendent
of Sunday schools, chairman of
the Board of Education, on the
nominating committee, and as
choir director.
The candidate is employed by
Newberry Mills Inc., as supervisor
of weaving. A veteran of World
War 2, he served in the Corps of
Engineers where he learned to
operate heavy road machinery,
build roads and bridges.
Mr. Bouknight made the follow
ing statement concerning his can
didacy:
“This being my 8th year as
Commissioner of District No. 1, I
know the duties of the office.
“As your Supervisor, I will be
fair and honest to everyone and to
every community. I will give my
full cooperation to your two com
missioners and see that their re
quests for work are carried out
promptly.”
“The chain-gang will be avail
able to use around our churches,
parks, schools, cemeteries and gar
den clubs when caught up with
road work.
- “The bushes will be kept cut
back from lapping over county
roads. Roads will be scraped more
often and top soil much heavier
so as not to wash off with the
first rain. Expenses will be cut
wherever it is possible and I will
see that Newberry County gets a
dollar’s worth of service for every
tax dollar spent.
“Our school bus routes and mail
routes will have priority over all
other roads so that our school
children may get to school much
faster and yet safely at the same
time and our mail delivery will be
on schedule.
“I would like very much to serve
you as your supervisor for the
next four years and ask the peo
ple of Newberry County for your
vote and continued support. It
will be greatly appreciated.
“You push me in and I will
help pull you out.”

Howard Turner Gerald Taylor
Granddaughter
Is Honored
The Ocala, Florida, Star-Ban
ner, in its issue of May 20, pub
lished a feature “Today’s Top
Teenager.” Chosen for the honor
was Anita Briggs, granddaughter
of Mrs. A. J. Briggs of Newberry.
The article about Anita follows:
Anita Briggs is well on her way
to becoming a linguist.
The attractive Ocala High
School senior will spend the sum
mer at Camp Montreat, N. C.,
teaching French and Spanish to
the Presbyterian church campers
there.
That’s dong pretty well for a
young lady who’s still at least
four years away from becoming a
college-trained interpreter or em
bassy staff member.
This type of work appeals to
Anita because “I enjoy speaking
with people from other countries
—preferably in their language—
and working with them.”
The main thing she hopes for
in her career, in fact, is reaching
“an understanding of other people
and countries.” Such an attitude
is half the battle.
Fittingly, Anita is new presi
dent of the American Field Serv
ice at Ocala High, the group which
set out at the beginning of the
year to raise sufficient funds to
bring one foreign exchange stu
dent to OHS next year, now
seems successful enough to get
two.
Anita naturally likes English
and language study best among
her subjects for “they help me to
understand, first, myself and
then others.”
An honor roll student, Anita is
also a member of the Inter-Clul>
Council and the Future Homemak
ers. Other activities have included
French Club, Pep Club and work
on the school literary magazine.
Not a bad record for a young miss
who’s been here only a year.
A native of Memphis, Anita is
the daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
William B. Briggs and will be 18
this coming Dec. 6.
Her favorite pastimes include
sewing, cooking, watching foot
ball and hockey, and reading. Win
ner of a Presbyterian Merit Schol
arship, she’ll attend Florida Pres
byterian College in St. Petersburg
next year.
Mrs. Salter Dies
In Greenwood
Mrs. Ellerbee Cole Salter, 68,
widow of Christopher Mack Sal
ter, died Saturday at the home of
her son, Calvin Salter, in Green
wood.
She was born at Cross Hill, a
daughter of the late Mr. and Mrs.
Lee Cole.
Survivors include two Newber-
rians, a sister, Mrs. Matthew Mer
chant and a brother, R. H. Cole.
PRAYER FO RTODAY
Gracious God, our Father, .
forgive us for the dimness of
our vision and our lack of
faith. We confess that in pride
we have sought to walk life
without you. Put our feet up
on the Way of Life, and place
our hands in the nail-scarred
hands of Jesus Christ, our
Lord. Amen.
