Drivers urged
to secure new
license now
Anyone with a dread of
standing in a long waiting line
would do well to heed an ad
visory just put out by the State
Highway Department concern
ing the change in requirements
for driver’s licenses, officials
said today.
Current laws call for every
applicant for license renewal
to appear in person for the new
driver's license and undergo an
eye examination and have his
photograph taken for inclusion
on the new style, plastic-encas
ed license which has replaced
the old paper license.
In the past years, South
Carolina offered a paper lic
ense or a metal license. The
metal license was abandoned
some time ago as no longer
satisfactory. Since then, the
paper license has gone down the
drain also. Now, only the new
plastic license bearing the
driver’s photograph maly be
obtained and its cost is $2. This
will be good for a four-year
period as in the past, but ex
piration will come on the own
er’s birthday anniversary.
The last remaining paper
licenses in South Carolina will
expire in 1969 or 1970. After
that, no more paper licenses
will be in use. Since they all ex
pire at more or less the same
time, a terrific clogging of
license offices around the state
is expected. One Highway
official has estimated that
800,000 to 1,000,000 persons
will have to renew their lic
enses in 1969-70, thus causing
a monumental jam.
Snorers given
helpful hints
About one of eight Americ
ans snore.
This means something like
25 million snorers, women as
often as men.
The comic literature about
snoring is endless. Plays, mov
ies, vaudeville skits and com
ics in general have poked fun
at snoring down through the
ages.
There’s a good chance that
there’s a snorer in your fam
ily. If so, says Today’s Health,
the magazine of the American
Medical Association, you are
well aware that it’s not very
funny.
The assorted hisses, gurgles,
buzzes, snorts and raspings of
the snoring nuisance hold the
seeds for the ruination of an
ostensibly happy marriage.
Many married couples find it
necessary to set up a schedule
wherein one spouse tries to
precede the other in sleep.
Other couples proceed to sep
arate rooms and possibly even
the divorce courts.
For the most part snoring
is generated while breathing
either in or out during sleep
by several structures in the
nose and throat. The sounds
are due to vibrations in the
soft palate and other soft
structures of the throat in re
sponse to inflowing and out
flowing air.
The frequency of the vibra
tions depends on the size, den
sity and elasticity of the af
fected tissues and on the force
of the air flow.
A number of causes of snor
ing can be helped and even
cured. Most cases of snoring
in children are cured by re
moval of enlarged adenoids and
tonsils. A blocked nose may
lead to mouth breathing and
snoring. Sometimes this can be
corrected by minor surgery. If
snoring is caused by nasal con
gestion due to comon cold, sin
us trouble or hay fever, nose
drops of antihistamines some
times can bring relief to the
sufferer and may stop snoring.
Many people snore only when
sleeping on the back. Any
method that keeps the sleeper
on his side or face can help.
There are factors that may
affect the tone of the tissues
of the throat and result in
snoring. These include too much
smoking, overwork, fatigue,
obesity (fatness) and general
poor health. The largest group
of offenders are the elderly,
presumably because they lack
tisue tone.

Begonias—United They Stand
Big news from the botanic world this season is that hap
hazard scattering of blooms is out and concentrated planting
is in—for gardens of glorious color. Using a wonderfully
versatile flower like the Belgian
Begonia-and your imagination
— you can put the accent on
color with self-contained is
lands of white, pink, red or yel
low in a myriad of diverse
corners.
One of the most charming
places to start “bunching” your
begonias is in a window garden.
Whether you’re a city, subur
ban, or country dweller, what
more beautiful sight to wake up
to, than these lovely flowers
outside your bedroom window?
And a window garden outside
your kitchen or living room
provides a refreshing splash of
color any time of day.
By concentrating your plant
ing, you can add new beauty to
many overlooked spots around
your home — banked against
walls and stepis, bedded down
outside your dining room win
dow, or stationed as welcoming
sentinels right at the front
door. Since Belgian Begonias
produce enormous blooms —
ranging from the smooth ca
mellia shape to the rose form—
they’ll make the smallest space
yield the biggest dividends.
Your garden will excite all
eyes this year if you mans your
forces. Remember: United they
stand, divided they fail—to cre
ate interest!
