United Fund
workers named
Divisional chairmen who
will head this year’s financial
drive by the Newberry County
United Fund were named today
by D. B. Brittain, general
chairman of the campaign. The
campaign will be conducted the
first two weeks of October.
In explaining the organiza
tion of this year’s camnaign
—
committee, Mr. Brittain point
ed out that two additional div
isions had been added to those
of previous years.
“We have created a division
of professional people and
another for persons involved in
public education,” Mr. Brit
tain said. “This expansion of
our organization serves the
two-fold purpose of reducing
the amount of work imposed
on one chairman and assures
us that everyone is solicited for
a contribution.”
Persons selected to head the
eight United Fund campaign
divisions are:
Industrial, R. R. Brown;
commercial W. J. Raffield, E.
Outlying, T. H. Leitzsey; West
Outlying, P. H. Senn; Public
employees, Thomas Buzhardt;
Public Education, Ralph Wat
kins; Residential, Mrs. Ann
Taylor and Mrs. Erlene I^mi-
nack; and Professional, Col.
James Holcombe. In addition,
Dave Morison and Raffield will
serve as campaign vice chair
men.

will be held in the Community
Hall in Newberry Monday
night, September 30. All cam
paign workers will be invited

After he lost a bid for re-election,
City Councilman Walter E. Berrick,
Jr., of Danville, Virginia, filed a cam
paign expense account of $79.81. The
final entry was 62c for aspirin!
And every mother knows which
side the bread is buttered on—the side
the kids drop on the kitchen floor!
Because his vehicle was getting low
on gas, R. J. Burns stopped at a ser
vice station in Kannapolis, North Caro
lina, and said, “Please fill ‘er up.” Ad
mittedly, there’s nothing unusual about
that except that Burns was at the
controls of a helicopter and not a
car!
An editor received a story from one
of his reporters about the theft of 2,-
025 pigs from one farmer, said the
Van Horn, Texas, weekly Advocate
(which, incidentally, carries “What
soever Things”), recently. Curious
about the large number, he called the
farmer. “Are you the one who had
2,025 pigs stolen?” the editor asked.
“Yeth, I thure am,” replied the farm
er. “Thanks,” said the editor. He re
wrote the story to report the theft
of two sows and 25 pigs. Oh, me! Y r ou
can’t win them all! It was a thad
thory.
Then there is the true story of what
happened up in Ohio. The residents of
Bazetta Township are waging war
against a chicken farmer whose stock
they say is odiferous. They are taking
the case to court. But until the court
decides something, they have satisfied
themselves with this sign by the town
limits: “Entering Stinkville, popula
tion 72,000 stinking chickens. Unfit
for human habitation.”
Out in Longview, Texas, the police
man read the note on the windshield
of a car parked in a no parking area.
It read: “I have circled this block 10
times, and I have an appointment and
must keep it or lose my job. Forgive
us our trespasses.” The officer wrote
a note of his own and left it on the
windshield. It read: “I have circled
this block for 20 years. If I don’t give
you a ticket I will lose my job. Lead
us not into temptation.”
Finally, there was the case of Har
ry Price of Long Eaton, England. Giv
en only a few weeks to live when he
received a disability discharge from
the army back in 1917, he this year
celebrated his 101st birthday!
That brings us around to the Car
penter’s Way of life. People counted
it cut soon after it begun. Down
through the years it has continued to
live and grow despite the fact that
it was “supposed” to die. Just a few
years back one of the famous Beat
les singing group repeated this tale
that “Christianity is on the way out.”
For 2000 years men have been doom
ing His Way to death, but it continues
to live. “On this rock I will build my
:hurch, and the gates of hell shall
lot prevail against it.” You know,
’m inclined to believe that He told
.he truth. —Five Star Features
