midst of his cawfee thatn. The young Mr.
Kettlewen who has lattery been beseged with
bit of wanderlust that sends him to far places in
the neghborhood, had incurred matery wrath one
day on his travels. She confronted him with queries
of his whereabouts. To which he replied that like
daddy, he is doctor and was making calls He
had been to the i'll Eleanor Conkey. Mrs.
K. was stopped on that. Regime Unger took
her first plane ride to Chicago and return and the
view is grand at thousand feet But the return
brought also airsickness There was freckled-

school chun in the grades. He's Charles
Gould, who came here all the way from Canal Zone

the Pacific side. He finished school in Knoxville
Tennessee, where there was girl. But he went
back to the Zone alone and for four years they

One of the better earlier ideas that has developed
out of the proposed Stockade Days for S. c. to cee
brate in 1941 secretion at the Park of the
trance of the stockade it appeared in 1862.
The deal, should it pass, would give the city the
biggest plug since S. Lewis made this pin point

of town. Clellan Card, radio funnyman, with
restraint of radio off, uneashed jokes badly spoiled
here the other night when Country Club sponsored
his appearance. 1t wasn't the clubs fault for his
reputation is built his radio wit which they

Oozings, unique newspaper if ever these lamps
have glimpsed one says this: You rarely find a
professional cowboy who ever drinks beer, most of

Clarence Dickinson, the WPA rec leader, is so
interested in archery and craft work that we
shouldn't be surprised to find him wearing feathers
in his hair. Some years ago when Dick first got
into the work, he had occasion to take some train
ing in archery He liked it. Since that time
he's devoted energy in getting the sport into the
blood of youth here. Last summer his coaching
efforts produced pretty fair target Shots this
winter it still more popular. He says this for
it, It's of the best posture correctors there is.
That's why it's so highly recommended for girls in
particular. you have to stand right you can't
shoot" Dick says. He can make arrows and
bows, finds that pine will make good enough target
arrows that lemonwood is superior to hickory for
bows Hickory he relates, is like rheumatism-it
changes with the weather. But more than that

It's taken his interest and he has eye the
future With recreation, craft, and archery
gaining popularity he feels that those on the
ground floor may land something. There may
be private fields for instructors who know the way
around. Dick seems to know his way from the
ground up in archery.

of kindly expression. He came into the office the
other day. He had pocketbook that he had used
years ago when he toted gasoline in these parts by
wagon He said, you know, I haven't worked
for ten years." We waited That's too long If
I were old it'd be different" he cracked chuckling
They tell that Mr.. Mccormick was at one time
OF the most clever men with his strength the town
knew: That as younger man he could pile
barrels of flour-3 high And barrel weighs 1876
pounds! Mrs. Minnie Mullen is probably the
