It was the domain of the Indian and the wild animals of nature. Mechanical Inventions were still In 'their infancy No automobiles, no airplanes, no other kind of machinery of much consequence. No telegraph, no telephone, no radios, no television, no nothing. Mrs. Gibboney lived through a life that saw all these changes she lived all through the period when every city In the west and all over the nation, grew from villages, and In most cases from nothing, to metropolitan population areas, with giant skyscraper buildings, to say nothing of the thousands oLsmaller cities, towns and villages.

GRANITEVILLE, S. C. James Wesley Reardon is 87, and hes In a rut. Hes been working for the same company for 76 years now and he cant shake loose. When you have worked for 78 years," he says, "you have sort of gotten the habit. Most other people swjtch ayound a bit In their jobs, or get itchy feet and move someplace else. And then they retire. Not Wes Reardon. The Graniteville cotton mill cant get him to stop, and theyve dubbed him the grand old man of Horse Creek Valley because theyre convinced he's set some kind of record. Wes doesnt agree with them. Its Just that hed feel lost without something to do, he says. He started as a tack boy In the mill founded by William Gregg.' who Is called the father of the textile industry In the south. Since then hes had a variety of responsible Jobs, Including plant supervisor. For many years he was paymaster of the company and worked In the shipping department at the same time. he says, I went to Sure, school to learn reading, writing and 'rithmetic. A fellow can learn anything after he learns to read and write, but he needs a little help on rithmetic. After he decided his job with the mill looked permanent, Wes Reardon thought hed better do something about his Sundays. He became a Sunday school teacher at St. Johns Methodist church and joined the choir. That was sort of recent only 70 years ago.

Dropped in at Bobs diner here some friends were sitting around talking about whether to sell hogs now or wait. Buck plunges right into the dis- cussion. Hes lecturing away when suddenly they all stand up and start stomping their feet like it was an Indian war dance. I'm flabbergasted. But Buck only looked sheepish and explains, Gues I was talking again, when I should-o- f been listening. When a persons talking time gets out of Cvpjrifhtf line with hla Kitening time around here, the gang reminds him by standing up and stomping." From where I sit, thats a good system. Everyone has a right to his opinions but others have a right to theirs, too whether its deciding between to sell or not to sell, apple pie or cherry pie, or a glass of mellow beer or cider. Life's more interesting that way, and hang it if you dont sometimes learn something! flec 19 i9, L nittd Stuict Fvundativn Tube Makes Magnetism Visible as Light Rays NEW YORK. Magnetism can now be made visible for the first time by a new light, New York university officials announced. Instead of the iron filings that every high school student uses to show the curved lines of magnetism, the new way shows them as blue rays of light. The light Is made by a tube that shoots out a lot of electrons. These are particles too small to be seen even with the greatest microscopes. The electrons line up Just like the iron filings. They also emit the blue glow which traces the mysterious lines of force.. The new tube was Invented by S. J, Tetenbaum. Worlds Largest Telescope Floats on Lubricating Oil SCHENECTADY," N. Y. The million pounds of moving parts of the famous Mount Palomar telescope are kept floating on lubricating oil to prevent friction. Steady streams of oil are pumped through small holes, keeping the telescope lifted and rolling, like a ball in a vertical jet of water, said A. G. Ingalls, an editor of Scientific American. This reduces the friction so much that if you were to lay your hand on the side of the telescope, you could easily turn the whole million pounds, provided it were not locked," Ingalls Said. 200-ine- h 4 express my appreciation and recent The army operations which distributed feed to both domestic stock and wildlife, hay-li- ft that were marooned by huge snow drifts, accompanied by bitter cold weather, would have perished unless fed as your article in the Record Indicated, yes Its a Pretty Good Old World.
