Forest Products week Oct. 15-22 Governor John West has is sued a statement which offi cially designates the week of October 15-22, 1972, as National Forest Products Week in South Carolina. The forest products industry in our State, the Governor said, is strong, viable expanding force in the State’s economy. This three-quarter billion dol lar industry provides jobs for over 25,000 persons, with wood processing plants located in all forty-six counties. . r Because this industry is state wide, its taxes contribute great ly to the support of local public school and governments. A recent national survey showed that 70 per cent of the public believe that the Nation’s forests are being exhausted. West pointed out that according to State Forester John Tiller, the net annual growth of timber in S. C. exceeds drain by 48 per cent. However, this present favorable condition will gradual ly diminish as demand for wood products is expected to dou ble by 1985. This industry, third largest in the Palmetto State, has vo lunteered over 650,000 acres in the cooperative game manage ment program of the S. C. Wild life Resources Department with an additional amount open for private lease hunting. The eco nomic values of good forest management can be measured, but the aesthetic and environ mental values of healthy, grow ing trees are beyond estimate. The Governor asked all citi zens of South Carolina to join with him and the sponsoring organization, S. C. Forestry As sociation, to pay tribute to one of our leading industries by ob serving National Forest Pro ducts Week in South Carolina. Legion Aux. to offer prizes for essays The American Legion Auxi liary, Newberry Unit 24, held its regular September Meeting at the home of Mrs. Roy D. Whitaker on Bachman Street. Her co-hostesses were Mrs. James D. Brown, Mrs. Howard Clark and Mrs. Claude Pan- tain. The house was beautifu- ly decorated in fall flowers. Upon the arrival of the mem bers a delicious salad course with coca Cola was served. The Meeting was called to order by the President, Mrs. Bennie B. Sprouse. The chaplain, Mrs. J. Virgil Long, offered prayer and the members stood in silence for a few moments in meory of our war dead. Mrs. F. Scott Elliott lead in the Pledge of Allegiance to the Flag.

The Americanism Chairman, Mrs. Elliott, spoke on the Ame ricanism Program of the De partment for the year. The De partment’s slogan for this year is “Join Hands In Service”. This year the Department will not send a teacher to the Val ley Forge Seminar, but we are requested to contact the Prin cipals and History Teachers in the high schools in our county in order to try to get boys and girls interested in taking part in the ESSAY CONTEST. The Department each year offers a prize of $50.00 to the winning essay in the State: Newberry Unit 24 is offering $10.00 to the winner and $5.00 for the runner- up in this County’s Contest. Those who may participate are 9th, 10th, 11th and 12th graders. The subject for the Essay this year is—“Democracy—An Old Concept, A New Challenge”. Mrs. Elliott will contact the schools regarding this Contest. It is hoped that we will have a number of contestants. Mrs. Lonnie Gilliam, Mem bership Chairman, reported that we have secured 63 member ships for this year and that we have 101 to go in order to reach the number we had this past year.
