Letter to Editor
My husband and I came to
Newberry, S. C., “The City of
Friendly Folks”, nearly thirty-
five years ago, and found both
white and black people living up
to the slogan of their city. The
close relationship, and the high
intelligence of both races made
such an impression on my hus
band and me that we decided
to make this city of love and
friendship our adopted home.I
am hoping therefore, and pray
ing that these ties in both races
will always stand
There are four prerequisites
that will help hold us together
in peace and harmony. They are
as follows:
1 “Love: Love your neigh
bor." says our Lord. Remem
ber the Golden Rule. “Do unto
others as you would that they
do unto you.” Courtesy is due
everyone regardless to race,
creed or color. When one dis
respects another, he only makes
himself small. Then too, he will
reap just what he sows; that’s
the Bible.
2 Forgiveness: Remember,
you cannot hurt the other per
son without hurting yourself.
Therefore, instead of retaliation,
return good for evil.
3. Good Records: Your record
wall always follow you, good or
bad. But job opportunities are
always open for people with
good records.
4. Peace: Let us as Christians
create peace and good will in
our homes, in our schools, in
our community, and between
the races.
In conclusion, I am asking
everyone, in the name of our
Lord, not to let this confusion
cause misunderstanding and
hate to engulf our city of friend
ly folks.
