Health officer urges safety in gun use The hunting season is now underway and many youngsters are going out with their per- ents, some for the first time, to learn how to handle a gun. Dr. Von Long of the Newberry Health Department today sug gested a list of fundamentals in gun handling for them to remember. Others already in troduced to the sport would do well to review them, he said, to be sure they haven’t de veloped dangerous habits. “The first commandment in using firearms is never point them—loaded or unloaded—at something you don’t intend to shoot. In so many cases, a grief-stricken companion be gins his explanation of a shooting accident by saying he didn’t know the gun was load ed. It’s too late then to say he’s sorry he made a mistake.” Dr. Long also advised hunters to be sure the movement they want to fire at is actually the animal they are after, not a dog or another hunter silently stalking game. Other important points listed were: 1. Load your gun outside the car, just before beginning the hunt. Unload it before get ting back in the car. 2. Keep the safety catch on as you walk, slip it off as you raise the gun to your shoulder. 3. Walk with the barrel pointing in the air or away from hunting companions. 4. When crossing fences or other obstructions, set the gun safely aside where it won’t slip or be nudged, pick it up by the stock once safely over. 5. Quit when you’re tired. A hunt dragged out beyond the point where your reflexes are good is usually no fun and is certainly very dangerous. Dr. Long suggested fathers start their sons and daughters with a .410 shotgun. “The “The simpler the mechanism, and the lower the recoil, the easier it is for a boy or girl to learn fundamentals. An automatic or semi-auto matic with a big recoil may scare them into mistakes. Starting them off slowly and surely will assure more en joyment in hunting. Now best time to get license Registration of automobiles, trucks and other motor vehicles is in the fourth week for the 1968 license year and, as ex pected, this is a period of low activity at the license windows around the state. After a busy first week in which the customary long lines of license applicants formed at all license windows, applica tions have dwindled to a snail’s pace. Now is the right time for all vehicle owners to visit the Highway Department’s forty- eight licensing offices around the state and secure license plates without having to wait out a line. Early October, beginning shortly after the middle of the month, lines begin building up again to a grand climax at the October 31 deadline. It is on the final day that applicants punish themselves by swarming to the window.-, en mass, seem ingly enjoying the punishment they bring on themselves. Highway Department offi cials are advising that you ap ply for your license before the 15th of October, and preferably before October 1, if you want quick service and avoid wait ing in line. Cooper speaks to Arts club The Newberry Fine Arts club met Thursday, September 14th at the homeof Mrs. J. E. Denny. Delicious refreshments were enjoyed by the members dur ing the social hour. Mrs. C. Walter Summer was program chairman for the meeting and she introduced the guest speaker, The Reverend John C. Cooper,Ph.D. Head of the Department of Philosophy at Newberry college. Dr. Coop er was born in Charleston. He has received his degrees from the University of South Car olina and the University of Chicago, as well as at the Lutheran Southern Theological Seminary and theLutheran School of Theology at Chicago. He is the author of several books: “The Roots Of The Radical Theology” Westminis ter Press, 1967), “Wine in Sep arate Cups” (F. E. C. Pub lishers, 1967) and “The Christ ian and Politics” Lutheran Church Press, 1967.) Dr. Cooper is married to the former Ann Johnston of Greer, and is the father of four child ren. The topic of discussion was Dr. Cooper’s recent paperback book “Wine In Separate Cups.” This book was produced in or der to mark the 450th Anni versary of the Protestant Ref ormation. In an attempt to provide a model for an ob servance of relevance and meaning, the Lutheran youth offices co-sponsored a “Refor mation Proie^t” during the summer of 1966. For 8 weeks, six young people (three Roman Catholics and three Lutherans) lived, shared and probed to gether, lodging at Concordia Teachers College in River For est, 111., but moving about in Chicago and its surrounding environs. They visited inner- city renewal projects, heard church, civil rights and other leaders, and reflected, discuss ed, wrote to express their can did feelings. The goals of the project were to, first of all, equip the young people in un derstanding the historic Refor mation issues; secondly to in still in them an awareness of what the church has gained or lost because of the post-Refor- mation split and to sensitize them to what each church has gained or lost by lacking the challenge or support of the other; thirdly, to help them perceive the renewal needed in the church today and to help them focus on the mission of thechurch both at present and in the future. Dr. Cooper also brought some interesting highlights of the experiences of this group of young people as he had some personal contact with them dur ing this experiment. This book, “Wine in Separ ate Cups” is being written and produced as a play “The Hole in the Middle Of Things.” The play, in turn, will be made into a movie to be shown in churches.
