South Carolina Motorists are urged to drive with their vehicle headlamps lighted July 4 and 5 in the interest of greater highway safety, Chief Highway Commissi oner Silas N. Pearman said today. Mr. Pearman said officers of the Highway Patrol throughout the State have been instructed to burn their lights during the two-day period, and he asked other motor ists to do likewise as a reminder to others of the need of safe driv ing. Travel during the holiday week end is expected to be especially heavy, the official said, and extra driving precautions will be nec essary if a high traffic injury and death toll is to be avoided. Traffic fatalities in South Caro lina are averaging approximately 55 more this year than for the corresponding period of 1963. In an effort to keep down traf fic accidents during the July 4th period, all patrolmen have been assigned to duty from July 3 thru July 6. All available radar equip ment will be used for the enforce ment of speed laws, and officers have been instructed to be espec ially alert for fast, reckless and intoxicated drivers. Major highways, particularly those leading to beaches and other resort areas, will be heavily pat rolled throughout the week end, and a special effort will be made to apprehend drivers found vio lating traffic laws.

Henry, Mary H. Henry, Executrices. June 26, 1964 ll-4t ARE YOU LISTENING? Recently I heard of a woman who tied a knot in the sheet on her bed when she heard an owl hooting in the night, and I was 1 completely dumfounded at her superstition. A little investigation shows, however, that much of this world in which we live is very superstitious. Many people fear Friday the 13th; dread to see a black cat run across their path; refuse to walk under a ladder; or sweep dirt out of the back door after the sun goes down. Likewise, to many, Christianity is no more than a superstition in their lives. They believe that pray er is nothing more than a “totem” pole that a man uses when he feels insecure. They believe that faith is a spiritual rabbit’s foot or good luck charm that a person calls on when he is in doubt. But all dis covery and progress have resulted from faith rather than supersti tion. Prior to the days of Columbus, man was superstitious about the shape of the earth. Through faith he proved them to be wrong. Rob ert Fulton labored for years be lieving his steamboat would revo lutionize the shipping industry. His friends thought it all folly. Thru faith he proved them wrong. Thru faith we have the incandes cent lamp, radar, television, radio, jet propulsion, penicillin, and many other devices of wonder. They were all brought about thru faith. John, in writing his letter, tells us the same thing. It isn’t enough to tell a person that you love him. Such love is proven thru faith in that person and service toward his needs. The Bible says: “My little children, let us not love in word, neither in tongue; but in deed and in truth.” This is the solution to the problems of the world. Are you listening? Rev. and Mrs. S. M. Atkinson have moved to 910 Caldwell street to make their home.

The upward trend began in the late 1930’s, leveled off during the war years and then began a re newed climb in the late 1940’s. In 1937, there were only 284,000 registered vehicles in the state. By 1941 the number had risen to 370,000. After going through the lean war years, in which practic ally no automobiles were manufac tured in this country, net registra tion in 1945 totaled 336,000, a de cline of about 34,000 vehicles. By 1949, responding to a heavy pub lic demand for new transportation and the resumption of production of peace-time goods, vehicle regis trations rose to 524,000. By 1953, vehicle ownership in the state was up to 700,000. Ten years later in 1963 it reached ap proximately 900,000 and is expect ed to reach a million for the first time in 1964. The years from 1963 to 1963 each showed substantial and relatively constant growth in vehicle purchases. These figures represent automo biles, trucks, trailers and miscel laneous wheeled units such as mo torcycles. In all the years mention ed in these figures, the automobile in no year represented less than 76 per cent of the total vehicles. In most years automobiles represent about 80 per cent of the total ve hicles on the road in this state. ■■Mzyk JULY SALE! now m progress Andersons Shoe Store Store-wide Clearance SALE STARTED Tuesday, June 30 This value-packed sale is planned for YOU, our friends, in time for your va cations.
