PAGE 8—The Newberry Sun, Newberry, S. C., Thursday, March 21, 1968 BY THE WAY (Continued from page 1) I have fought against this sort of thing. The trouble was, in most instances, I was fighting alone. Frankly, I got tired of it. I frequently do get tired of “crusading”, of having peo ple tell me, “I agree with you but don’t mention my name.” Anyway, the only suggestion I have for people who are disturbed about the trees, is to call the city manager. I don’t think it will do any good, but when I have a complaint about something the city does or doesn’t do, that’s where I go to register • the complaint. And too, you have a mayor and six members of council who could be contacted. How ever, the subject was brought up at HiSt council meeting and no action was taken. There is no doubt that much of the beauty of our city is being destroyed. Perhaps it is necessary, perhaps not. It makes me feel a little sick, however, to come back and look at the bare streets of Newberry after having visited a charming little town like Edgefield, for instance, where the trees have been preserved and there is a look and feel of coolness throughout the town, during the hot summer. Most small towns now have an urge to grow”—but growth is what causes destruction of beauty. It may be cruel to say, but I would hope that a town like Edgefield would NEVER get any industry of any size larger than it now has. I think that some day I’d like to retire and live there if it preserves its present atmos phere. It reminds me of the Newberry that used to be.
