TIMELY
QUOTES
SPACE CENTER, Houston-
Apollo 11 flight director Gene
Lunney, reflecting on the
lessons of the lunar landing:
"This was the first time we
had a chance to really exercise
the men in that environment
and the men in the machines
that are required to do that and
it takes a little while to find out
exactly what you learned from
that and how best applied to
next time out.”
SPACE CENTER, Houston-
John W. Blossom, the engineer
who developed the quarantine
trailer that will house the
astronauts, talking about the
eventual use of a deadly gas
spray to kill off any "moon
germs” that may get into the
trailer:
"I would suppose if this
doesn’t cure it. the only thing
you can do is burn it or bury
it.”
WASHINGTON — President
Nixon, hearing that the Apollo
11 spacecraft had successfully
lifted off from the moon
Monday afternoon:
"That’s good news.”
EL LAGO, Tex.—Mrs. Jan
Armstrong, wife of the Apollo
11 astronaut, talking about
activities of the last 48 hours:
"Wasn’t it Just wonderful?
It’s very quiet in our house
now. Everybody is sleepy. We
didn’t sleep very much last
night. But after the docking,
everybody Just sat back and
relaxed."
Almanac
For
Today
By United Press International
Today is Thursday, July 24,
the 205th day of 1969 with 160 to
follow.
The moon is between its first
quarter and full phase.
The morning stars are Venus
and Saturn.
The evening stars are Mars,
Jupiter and Mercury.
On this day in history:
In 1679 New Hampshire
became a royal colony of the
British crown.
In 1929 President Herbert
Hoover signed the Kellogg-
Briand Treaty under which 43
nations agreed to renounce war
as an instrument of national
policy.
In 1948 Henry Wallace and
Idaho Sen. Glen Taylor were
nominated as presidential can
didates of the Progressive
Party.
In 1958 Vice President
Richard Nixon and Soviet
Premier Nikita Khrushchev had
their famous verbal "Kitchen”
debate at the American exhibit
in Moscow.
A thought for the day: British
writer Rudyard Kipling said,
“A woman's guess is more
accurate than a man’s certain
ty.”

What to do
about taxes
The other day David Carnes, president
of the Fayette County Chamber of Com
merce, wrote in "The Communicator,"
which is the organization's bulletin:
"No one enjoys paying property tax to
the county. But we all recognize that it
is necessary to levy some kind of tax to
support our county government and
schools.
"At the present rate of new homes being
built in Fayette County we can expect to
see greater demands on the county goven
ment for improvements. These will not
be free and must be paid for by the busi
nesses and residents of the county. At the
same time we will see our schools becom
ing more overcrowed.
"A few years back one of the counties in
the metro Atlanta area was known as a
'bedroom county'. Their property taxes
were excessive. This can happen to q ayette
County.
"The best way that has been found to off
set high property taxes on individual resi
dences, is to increase the number of in
dustries located in the county."
From where we sit here in Spalding
County, it looks as if our Fayette neighbor,
Mr. Carnes, has’made more sense about
property taxes in his short article than oil
the lengthy discussions and writings we
have heard and read so often during the
past several months. Also, it seems to us
that what he wrote about Fayette applies
just as strongly to Spalding and to other
counties in this part of the state.
Caring For
The sick
THE HERALD - TRIBUNE, CARTERSVILLE
JUST AS IT is a continuing effort to keep living costs within
income, so it is today that the problem of keeping hospitalization
costs in line with hospital charges.
Business, industry and various establishments as a general
proposition over the country try to provide hospitalization and
health coverage for employees. This is right and proper, and is
designed to provide something of a reserve or cushion for
protection of employees and for their dependents in event they
have to be hospitalized because of illness or injury.
But ever increasing costs of hospitalization and medical care,
especially for those not covered by Medicare and Medicaid,
present a problem. Whereas a few years ago a hospital room on a
semi-private basis cost SB.OO to SIO.OO per day, the cost has
climbed to astronomical figures ranging from SIB.OO to $25.00 or
more per day.

We still don’t know whether there is life on the moon,

MY
ANSWER-
I hear conflicting views about
tbe effect of obscjeglty and por
nography upon humap behavior.
Some psychologists seem to
think and perhaps the Supreme
Court concur) that these have
no effect upon behavior. What do
you think? I>.T.
The Bible advocates that it Is
Important what we feed Into our
minds. It says: "Whatsoever th
ings are true, whatsoever things
are honest, whatsoever things
are just, whatsoever things are
pure. . . think on these things.”
If it is good to think of g o o d
thlhgs, conversely, it is bad to
think of bad things.
Pamela Johnson, in her book.
On Iniquity, points out that those
culprits found, guilty, in the.. Moor
murder trial in England, were
greatly influenced by pornogra
phic literature in which they
had soaked their jninds. A yo
ung murderer in America bla
med his criminal tendenices on
television, and another on crime
comic books. So, in Scripture,
and in life itself, it is Important
what we put into our minds. The
Bible says, "As a man thlnketh
in his heart, so is he.”
This places a great responsi
bility upon authors, illustrators,
editors, publishers, and other
creative people. The Bible says,
"No man liveth unto himself",
and we are all bound together
upon this island In the universe
called Earth, and we should le
arn that what we do, think, and
say, effects other people.

While most individuals
agree with Franklin P.
Adams’ quip about his
boys. “Gentlemen. I love
and like you./Caring little
for your IQ,” the Army,
schools and industry base
their “liking” on how well
a candidate does on an in
telligence test. The French
psychologist. Alfred Binet,
The World Almanac says,
introduced the first stand
ard test of intelligence in
1905.
