(Continued from Page 1) He knew and understood love. All who loved him could feel his love reciprocating. A tribute of those who loved him are unnum bered men, women, boys and girls who are his name sakes and how proud we are to bear his name . . . His love of people was revealed by his interest in politics. To him an election was like Christmas to a child. He reveled in personali ties. Many times he would be found watching television where political speeches for candidates for city alderman in far cities, al though he might not know the candidates, he was interested and wanted to meet them. Humility was natural to him in his moments of victory which were many. He felt compassion for the defeated. His humble beginning as a boy in Newberry and young man and lawyer were never forgotten. He has been described many ways by many people, before and after his passing. The most profound of these descriptions was that “he walked as happily with the highest of the great as with the lowest of the humble.” His loss is felt most keenly by those of us who were with him daily. No sketch of this man could be complete however scant, without mentioning Maude G. Ross, his faithful secretary and his beloved wife, Urbana Neel Blease. When this portrait was first shown to Mrs. ’Blease;, it was the intention for her to keep it for her life and then it was to be hung here in the courtroom. After a moment of consideration, she de clined to keep it and suggested that we place it here now. This gesture on her part is typical of her generosity and feeling. She knows so well, that Eugene S. Blease never belonged to anyone. His picture as his life, belongs to the people. He was happiest when among them. With an humble feeling of that fullness for having known and loved him, we respectfully honor him with the sure and certain knowledge he will long be remem bered. feelings: When he laughed he laughed joyously. WTiile in sorrow he wept openly and was unasham ed. On the streets of his home town he cheerfully extended greet ings daily to those across the street as well as to those with whom he brushed elbows. He loved people, and their problems became his problems, and their interests his interests; he never turned a deaf ear to any plea of a deserv ing person. I heard him say that, as Will Rogers said, he never met any one that he did not like. Similar to a child, whether an acquaint ance was the humblest or the most exalted, did not influence his int erest. He had strong friends among all classes. But it was re markable the great number that he impressed. The most striking example of this occurred on the day of his election as Associate Justice of the Supreme Court. At that time there were two vacancies on the Court. He was proposed for one of the vacancies. Although he was not a member of the General As sembly, only one opponent was nominated against him, who was a member of the elective body. Judge Blease won overwhelmingly. The other vacancy resulted in a deadlock that lasted over several weeks among distinguished and highly qualified members of the Judiciary and the Bar. Immediate ly following his election I entered a hotel that was patronized by all of those being considered for elec tion to the Supreme Court. It was entirely vacant, except for the employees. All of the bellhops were lined up and were anxious to know if “Mr. Eugene” had been elected, as were the Clerk at the desk and the youthful telephone operator. I was not surprised at their interest. But as I stepped out of the elevator to go to my room there were two maids per forming the menial task of scrub bing the hall, and to my astonish ment, they turned to me and ask ed, “Has ‘Mr. Eugene’ been elect ed?” And when I informed them that he had they said, “Thank the Lord. He is such a good man.” JUDGE GRIFFITH: We who pause here today to honor Chief Justice Eugene Satterwhite Blease are his loved ones and friends, and many of , us have been so for tunate as to have long enjoyed the charms and graces of his won derful personality and to have laid upon him our burdens. We are too close to him to place a value on his life’s work. We can reflect, how ever, on the example and spirit that has been ours to share, and with hearts full of gratitude for his dedicated services to others, give thanks to God. The artist, Mr. Gerald F. Tem pest, by this portrait has created a living likeness of Judge Blease when he was still strong in body at the maturity of his power and fame and when he was living his greatest moments. The portrait will hang here for the benefit of all future generations, and we pray that it will forever plead for justice in this Court and be an inspiration to all of our youth of the future. We wish it were possible to leave a portrait of his personal ity—those intangible qualities of the spirit of man that cannot be painted by the artist or portrayed by words. But those of us who have been privileged to work with him will always remember some of his characteristics that made him to be loved. He was successful in retaining the personality of his childhood; always cheerful, frank, open, and taking a consuming int erest in those about him. He loved children and they loved him. He could entertain a child all day and both would be happy. Among his friends he never suppressed his This interest in people that drew them to him was inspired by his desire to serve them. Count less numbers are grateful for his help. He never seemed to think of himself first. To me in his last year he expressed his most beau tiful thought of serving another. Mrs. Blease and he had lived many of their last years alone in perfect devotion and he was contemplating the inevitable day when death would enforce their separation. He felt that the one left would ^iaye to carry the cross for the one who had gone before. While he was bearing the constant pains of ; im paired health that would have driven to despair and desperation a less courageous soul, he exprjess- ed the hope that he might be able to bear his infirmities as loijg as Mrs. Blease lived so that he could take care of her. Finally in my last talk with him he realized that this precious hope had faded away and that for him death was im pending. Still he had nothing to ask for himself but instead he im paired his fleeting strength to say, “Help take care of ‘Banna’ (Mrs. Blease).” As my last words here today I quote for myself and all the count less numbers who would speak of their gratitude to Judge Blease, a paraphrased verse of Robert Burns: “The monarch may forget the crown Which on his head so late hath been, The bridegroom may forget the bride Was made his own but yesiere’en, The mother may forget the babe That smiled so sweetly on her Off < lke Week^ “I see yea returning with a cop and accusing me of stealing year wallet.” knee; But forget thee will I ne’er, Judge Blease, And all that thou hast done for , me.” Benediction by Rev. J. Anderson Bass: Our Father, we bow now in humble admiration of Thee; Thou who art a God of justice and hon or. We come our Father, thanking Thee for the memory of this one whom we honor today. We thank Thee for his- life and what he has meant to so many. We thank thee for his accomplishments. We thank Thee for the quantity, the quali ties of life that made him respect ed by those who have known him. We pray now our Father that those qualities continue in the lives of each of us, that his life might be an inspiration to those who have known him and those who follow after him, to likewise serve in justice, and honor. Now it is „ the name of our Lord that we pray, Amen. Dom Against Own Pay Raise Congressman Bryan Dom re turned to Washington after the Democratic Primary in time to vote against a salary increase of $7,500 for himself. The same bill called for a salary increase of $7,- 500 for members of the Supreme Court. Congressman Dorn said “I can not conscientiously support a bill which would provide only a $50 to $200 increase for postal and other federal employees in the lower bracket while increasing the sal aries of members of Congress and the Supreme Court by $7,500.” Dorn said Congress should set the example in Washington and balance the federal budget first.

Jennings Bryan Dorn Member of Congress County Spray Program To Begin Soon The Newberry County Health Department has announced that during the remainder of June, and in July and August, a spraying program will be carried out in the towns of Prosperity, Pomaria, Whitmire and Little Mountain and in the city of Newberry. The department states that the program has proven effective in the elimination of flies, mosquitoes and other insects, but points out the to be 100 percent effective, the cooperation of each individual is needed: “You as an individual,” the De partment says, “can help by: “1. See that you have a sanitary garbage can with tight fitting cover, one that is ample for your needs, but not exceeding a 30 gal lon capacity. “2. Eliminate stagnant water which will cause most breeding places for insects, flies and mos quitoes. Get rid of old tires, bot tles, cans, etc. “3. Clean up debris which causes fly breeding places snch as cow yards, dog pens, chicken yards, rabbit pens, etc. “4. Have all vacant lots cut since they harbor mosquitoes, etc. Have adequate drainage for such lots. “5, Cockroaches are certainly unwanted and uninvited guests in any home. They destroy food and damage fabrics, book bindings and other materials. They spread filth and carry diseases when they run over food.” The Department says that “Sanitation and good housekeep ing will prevent a build-up of roaches around the house. You should take away their food sup ply by keeping garbage cans tightly covered and storing food in tight containers. Wash the sup per dishes. Leaving dirty dishes overnight provides the roach with plenty of good food. Clean up pantries, storage rooms, and clos ets. Untidy, dark areas provide an excellent home for the cockroach.” It is recommended that insecti cides be applied under kitchen cabinets,, along baseboards and other areas that cockroaches fre quent. The spraying schedule is as fol lows: Whitmire: June 17, 18, 19; July 1, 2, 3; August S, 4, 6. Newberry City. June 22, 23, 24, 25, 26, 29; July 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11; August 10, 11, 12, 13, 14, 17. Attends JESSI At Clemson William J. Smith, Newberry, is attending the sixth annual Junior Engineers and Scientists Summer Institute at Clemson College dur ing June 7-20 for outstanding 10th, 11th and 12th grade boys from high schools mostly in the South east. During this 13-day exploration and orientation program in the science and engineering areas of learning, 95 students in class-size groups are learning from Clemson scientists and engineers: what the sciences and engineering really are; what is meant by research in those areas; something about a college program of studies and study demands for graduation; that they must master the high school basics in mathematics, the sciences and English if they wish to be prepared for the scientific and technical studies at the college level; and that to succeed in col lege, they must adopt sound study practices. Sponsored by Scientists of To morrow, Portland, Ore., the JESSI program gives interested high school students an academic in sight into the pure and basic ap plied sciences and introduces them to some knowledge of the study programs and career opportunities in the science and engineering fields.
