The Everyday Counselor Rev. Herbert Spaugh, D. D. Courtesy being one of the most admirable human traits, I have often wondered why more em phasis has not been placed upon it by our schools. According to THE MARION STAR (S. C\). the state of South Carolina is launch ing a vigorous program of cour tesy training in their high schools. "At first surveys will be made in business firms amongst em ployees and customers to deter mine what courtesy problems are most common and what can be dime to correct them. Films and posters will be used to call to the attention of the public and clerks the fact that courtesy is contagious and does pay divi dends.’’ That training will be initiated m the form of a “Courtesy Pro motion Week.” At' . this, classes will be conducted ■ n both high jelv.' Is and business firms to tram youths and adults to be molt courteous, thereby render ing more effective service in the field of distribution. T " s is a part of the program of work in Distributive Educati m ' e.ng con ducted in South Carolina.

It brings thi schools closer to business and in dustry which will employ ou; high school graduates We Americans are an impetuou: and somewhat intemperati people. We drive things through ti a conclusion, and often at the ex pense of the feelings of others There is a school of moderr psychology, of which Dale Car negie is an outstanding exponent which teaches that appreciation and encouragement accomplish far better results in getting the most out of people, than force and pressure. They tell us repeatedly that courtesy, consideration and appreciation pay big dividends. Thi'.-e of us who have tried this program know that it works. It is fine that courtesy pro grams are being launched in our schools. Every encouragement should be given to them. But if they're to be truly effective, such a program must originate in the home. Much good teaching in the school can be totally counteracted by bad example and practice at home. That puts the problem squarely in the lap of us parents. That's where it ought to be. Too many marriages are going on the rocks today due primarily to the lack of courtesy and ap preciation between husband and wife. A marriage which started out beautifully and serenely, all too quickly becomes a domestic battleground. If there are chil dren, they are inevitably drawn into the disorder and confusion. If parents aren’t courteous to one another, they probably aren't courteous to the children. Natur ally the children then follow their example. The most closely knit unit in the land should be the home. Par ents and children should certain ly stand together remembering the old saying. “Blood is thicker than water.” A home bound to gether by love, courtesy and an preciation will stand up under any set of circumstances. Yes, courtesy commences at home, and no better rule for it has been devised than the Golden Rule. S.dt should be made accessible to all cattle at all times. It is best to use coarsely pulverized salt. Mrs. Pike, N. C. President Of H, D. Clubs Is In Europe Mrs. Walter Pike, now in Eu rope, representing the Home Demonstration Clubs of this sec 1 tion, writes another interesting letter to her fellow club mem bers, as follows: I Dear Club Members: Since it is impossible to write ' I each of you personally, I am send t' ing greetings to you through the • press. This time it is from Hol ■ j land, the headquarters of our . [ Conference. •! We arrived at Southampton, i England, September 2nd and ; spent the first night at Bourne mouth, England’s famous sea i side resort. From there we travel el through the beautiful English country-side to London, where we spent two full days sightsee ing and being entertained. There were two teas, one of which was attended by our Ambassador Douglas' wife. On Friday night we left for > Holland after a very wild scram-, ble through the customs. Saturday morning found us on | the coast of Holland and all I [ ever dreamed about it has come | true. Of course, there Is still much evidence of the devastation of war and we shall see more, but the way these people have gone forward with their recon struction is amazing. Tomorrow night we go to the Hague to be entertained by our own Ambassador Baruch. The food here is good but I have a feeling that it is like put ting on the best for company. Postage and cards are very high so if any of my messages are very brief you will understand. Details of all the trip will have to come later. Best wishes to each. Sincerely, Alma Pike.
