'June than in August. On a cloud
less summer day, sunburn is un
likely before 8 a.m. of after 4 p.m.
Danger in greatest at midday.
Protective lotions, oils, and
; creams vary in ability to screen
out burning rays. Only experience
will show which is best for you.
| Preparations containing opaque in-
! gredients, such as titanium diox
ide, reflect the light away from
the skin. These are useful for pro
longed exposure or very sensitive
skins.”
PROPERTY
TRANSFERS
As we face a new fiscal year in
the Government business, for
Uncle Sam operates from July 1st
to June 30th; he doesn’t carry his
affairs from January first to
December 31, as most enterprises
operate. And Uncle Sam has his
pecularities, a rather exacting man
he is, especially in small matters.
At the moment my thought goes
back to two incidents of my youth.
I was clerk, assistant postmaster
and all-round worker in a small
postoffice and I “kept the books.”
One time I was preparing a report
on the money-order operations and
was two cents out of balance. Now
you can’t pass off that sort of
thing with Uncle Sam: you must
balance. I spent hours investigat
ing, adding, adding, perspiring,
for July was as hot then as now.
And we had no air conditioning,
not even a fan. Seven-thirty in
the morning until seven-thirty at
evening. After sweating for hours
off and on, I found the two pen
nies!
About that time I was opening
the registered mail and a five-
dollar gold piece fell out. The en
velope contained a deposit for the
bank. I sent for the cashier and
he told me that the deposit called
for two five-dollar gold pieces.
There was only one! Now then! I
reported that and several months
later an Inspector called. He trav
elled up and down that county two
or three weeks, investigating me
and the postmaster of the mailing
office. That Inspector must have
cost the Government in salary and
expenses at least $500. And he was
investigating five dollars! But
that was—and probably is—the
practice of the government. I
would have gladly paid the five
dollars from my meager pay. But
Uncle Sam insists on strict ac
counting to the last cent. As I
read the papers today Uncle Sam
can overlook millions in Asia,
Africa, Europe and in hand-outs
in our country. In the case I cited
the mailing postmaster was re
quired to pay five dollars as a
penalty for accepting loose coins
for the mails.
Now! Now! And that is the old
Gentleman of the goatee, as he
was in small matters.
I think accountability in ordin
ary operations is not as strict as
in the Government service. I sup
pose a big businessman today
would say to a trusted employee
“write it off”; we can’t spend
hours and days looking for five
dollars.”
I’m told that a young accountant
was out of balance $3.75 and she
forced a balance by charging a
big account $3.75 assuming that
in the multifarious items of the
statement of a big enterprise it
would not be noticed. Yea, verily!
I have reason to observe that
in arithmetic, spelling, grammar,
and all those other requisites of
the primary grades in school many
pupils seem never to acquire a
practical, workable, knowledge.
They remind me of the story of
a big businessman dictating a let
ter like this: “Meet me in Schen
ectady next Monday.” The stenog
rapher asked “How do you spell
Schenectady?” “Make it Albany,”
said the boss.
I know, of course, that many a
man of millions can't spell Schen
ectady, whereas many a man with
out a dollar in the bank can spell
it.
Even so.
The reelection of Mendel Rivers,
John McMillan, Bryan Dorn, Al
bert Watson I think returns, or
continues in service, men of out
standing service. I know these
gentlemen, though the voters have
made other excellent choices.
The re-election of Solomon Blatt
and Jimmy Aycock will assure ex
cellent leadership in the House,
though others also will render ex
cellent service. Over in Claren
don nobody had opposition. I think
I am safe in saying that no county
is more capably served.
There is always the possibility
of failing to include all those
whose service merits recognition.
Although I may for the moment,
seem to overlook many fine repre
sentatives, such as in Florence,
Richland, Charleston and all
other counties, I may rejoice in the
prevailing good judgment of the
voters. Of course, now and then,
an able, dedicated man is “left
out”. That, of course, frequently
happens.
Senator Goldwater sterns likely
to head the Republican ticket for
President. We South Carolinians,
from Greenville to Charleston, have
refused to be bound by the claim
that we should support the Demo
cratic nominee. Unfortunately the
Democratic party has done more
harm than the Republican party
has done, although both parties
have gone far afield in trying to
destroy the cherished heritage
from our grandfathers. The right
of the people to support or oppose
the nominees of a Party is only
pure democracy and democracy
with a small “d” is not always
happy with Democracy with a
capital “D”. The small “d” demo
cracy is the people, pure and un
defiled, champions of liberty, wor
thy descendents of old Englishmen
who lost their heads for being in
dependent.
Shall we avoid sugar and
starches so as to retain or acquire
entrancing figures? Well, the
trouble of today is that as soon as
you accept one prescription some
other worthy critic will advise
something diametrically opposite.
Now then: as to sugar:
“On Sunday, June 14, more than
1,000,000 residents of the Wash
ington, D. C. area will sign their
names and addresses to slips of
paper clipped from local newspa
pers, hand them to volunteer wor
kers in 152 neighborhood schools
and hospitals, and be handed in
return tiny, pink lumps of sugar
to swallow. When the 152 ‘feed
ing stations’ close at 7 p.m., 70
per cent of the area’s population
will have received their final
doses of oral Sabin vaccine in a
three-stage community-wide cam
paign for immunity from polio
myelitis.
On the same day, 2,500,00 De
troit area residents will follow
a similar procedure. Similar pro
grams have been run with up to
92 per cent participation in Los
Angeles, Cleveland, Houston, Mia
mi, New Orleans, and dozens of
other communities. Before the
months is out, a million more Am-:
ericans will have Sabin protec
tion as the result of mass anti
polio drives in Springfield, Mass.,
Massau County, New York, Or
lando, Fla., and elsewhere.
These mass imminization drives,
sponsored by county medical soc
ieties and open to all residents,
are cited by Federal health offi
cials as a major factor in the
growing national immunity to
polio. Their effectiveness lies in
their simplicity. The mass pro
grams are quick; one suburban
Washington clinic handled 2,125
patients in an hour in the first
stages of the program last April.
The vaccine is painless; a lump of
sugar sprinkled with the Sabin
liquid appeals to many who shied
away from shot-in-the-arm Salk
vaccine. And Sabin is inexpensive;
most sponsoring societies request
donations of 25 to 50c a person,
but no one is turned away for lack
of funds.
Through development of the po
lio sugar cube has made immuni
zation not only painless but, to
children at least,, fun, health au
thorities still do not forsee a time
when the entire population will be
immunized.”
Some months ago I joined the
procession two or three times and
“took” a tablet each time. Frank
ly, I don’t remember how effica
cious the tablet was, or was sup
posed to be—or exactly for what
purpose. I don’t think it was in
tended to exert robust influence on
the pocketbook for 1‘ve felt no
special exuberance in that neigh
borhood. Still, you never can tell.
Going to the beach ? Ladies, sun
burn does not add to your beauty,
but if you yearn to look like a
brownie ponder this:
“Between September and June
it’s easy to forget the difference
between a sunburn and a sun tan.
On their first day on the beach,
though, lots of people relearn the
lesson: Too much exposure at once
results in red, not tan.
If it’s a golden-brown skin you
want, start out slowly, with 15
minutes’ exposure for light com
plexions and 20 minutes for dark
er skin. Add 5 or 10 minutes day
by day until a definite tan ap
pears Then you can greatly leng
then exposure, still taking care
when on water or beaches, where
the sun’s burning rays are greatly
reflected.
You should remember that light
clouds and fog can scatter the
sun’s burning rays, making sev
ere burns possible on slightly over
cast days. The ultraviolet waves
that do the damage are strongest
on June 21, when the sun’s rays
hit the earth most directly in the
north temperate zone. The rays
are more likely to burn in May and

From Mrs. Mercer Bouldin,
Ahmiika, Idaho: I was bom Lelah
J. Clift, on the Mississippi River,
in a community known as Cin
cinnati, Illinois. It was about
half-way between Hannibal, Mo.
and Louisiana, Mo.
My mother was an agent for
steamboats., loading out wheat
and stock. I remember I would
get on our old mare and ride to
the landing below to fill out the
grain.
I will never forget the .time we
went out to the levee range and
found someone had stolen our
horses, as well as the animals
belonging to our neighbor. We
had to borrow some animals
from another neighbor and it was
some time before we located our
horses; The thieves had sold them
to a delivery stable in Quincy,
Illinois.
We often went hunting for
turtle eggs and I enjoyed this
very much.
My stepfather, John Grimm,
rented boats. One time some
young people rented a boat and
overturned it in the middle of
the river. You never saw such ex
citement They managed to pull
the girls up the steep bank on
an island and my stepfather had
to get into his own boat and
rescue them.
