Silverstreet School News By Sally Berry Exams are over and students are digging in to try to make the second semester better than the first. Exam grades seemed to have given us all encouragement. (Maybe we need more Exams!) Also re port cards were given out on Thursday, February 1. That seemed to make us all want to make better, too. The boys and girls 4-H meet ing was held on January 3 and February 7. We are glad to hear that John Blake, Mr. SLong’s grand son is doing better now, after he was wounded in Vietnam. Mr. and Mrs. Long have been to West Virginia to see John. We were glad to have Paul and Faithe Young back with us for Chapel Thursday, Feb ruary 1. We all enjoyed the program. Colds, sore throats, and the flu has been bad on us for the past three or four weeks. We hope that we can get back to normal soon. Mr. English, the magazine salesman was at school Friday the 2nd of February. The mag azine campaign was officially started on Friday and ended on February 19.

Clover Leaf FRIDAY & SATURDAY For a Few Dollars More Clint Sastwood, Le Van Cleef, Gian Maria Volonte SUNDAY The Long Duel Yul Brynner, Trevor Howard Always a Color Cartoon BY THE WAY (Continued from page 1) is for every citizen in every community to surrender to the demands of agitators and the easily-agitated. Mr. Daniels had little or no thing to say about the events leading up to the shooting of the three young Negroes. He omitted any reference to po licemen being clubbed and shot at by a frenzied mob. He did not mention the fire bomb thrown into the home of a widowed old lady, or that fire men attempting to put out the blaze were harrassed and threatened. All of this he des cribed simply as “disorder" which—as he put it—“brought on the bloody police reaction.” See the subtle little sugges tion? The mob which threaten ed the lives and property of the community was, in Mr. Daniel’s view of things, guilty only of “disorder.” The police who tried to restore law and order were guilty of “bloody reaction.” One wonders why Mr. Daniels did not go all the way with Rap Brown and call it “police brutality.” Certainly this was his implication. There are, however, some old-fashioned and perhaps un sophisticated questions to be pondered. What were the police supposed to do, in the prevail ing conditions of anarchy and violence, with snipers’ bullets with clubs being swung at their heads? It is a pathetic thing, yes, that three Negro boys died in the melee—but they need not have died, and WOULD NOT have died had they refused to heed the exhor tations of the black power agi tators who came to Orangeburg for the purpose of stirring up hatred and strife. The boys paid an awful price for their parti cipation in the blood lust emo tionalism whipped up by .the traveling provocateurs. There are lessons to be learn ed from the hideous occurrence at Orangeburg. First of all, there is the lesson that no com munity is so tranquil that it cannot be converted overnight, and for the flimsiest of reasons, into an inferno of human hat red and violence—and death. A handful of stealthy agita tors can do it, by manipulat ing the emotions and inflaming the passions of ^ mob some how persuaded that it will not have to pay for its reckless ness. But there is also the les son that adequate law enforce ment, using such means as may be necessary, can repel any mob once it has been made clear that those who ask for trouble will get it. It is something of a paradox that civilization has been built on force versus force. At Or angeburg, the forces of law and order did what was nec essary to restore peace. Jona than Daniels may regard it as a “bloody police reaction,” .but to others it may seem more the serving of notice that mob violence will not be tolerated. In the final analysis, Orange burg may have, in its hours of travail, shown the rest of the country how to make cer* tain that civilization is not to be trampled underfoot. If so, the lesson was worth the tui tion. By Jesse Helms WRAL-TV Raleigh, N. C.

As I wrote before, I’ve had three doctors tell me not to drink water with chemicals added as I have kidney and bladder trouble. I’m not the only person with this trouble and I don’t see why fluoride should be pushed on us. Those who want it can obtain it very reasonably at the drug stores and then we who don’t need it won’t be forced to drink it. Furthermore, it won’t be wasted on washing cars, dish es, clothes, watering grass, not to mention flushing commodes. Thank you. Mrs. Julia Senn BACK FROM HOSPITAL Mrs. O. O.
