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.
Does Instant Credit Make
Saving Obsolete?
Emphatically
NOT!

** >
The myth of credit card magic is rapidly helping to
make thousands of Americans prisoners of their own
finances.
Instant credit should be called by its equally accurate
name—INSTANT DEBT!
Regular saving is a necessity if you are going to feel
secure, meet obligations and enjoy the future
Let us introduce you to our systematic savings plan
that will make you financially independent.
