V '"w • Home economist Janice Boyd displays decorated window shade as an example of the things produced at the ex tension service special clinics. School is not out for extension office Any month of the year, you can learn a new skill by at tending a home economic program through the Spalding County Cooperative Extension Service, University of Georgia College of Agriculture. The programs consist of demonstrations on how to construct wreaths to perfecting microwave oven dishes. Two home economist are in' charge of these programs. They are Gayle Cox and Janice Boyd. Gayle is in charge of youth and 4-H programs and Janice handles the adult sessions. The two instruct at these programs unless a special person is needed. The programs originated from requests sent to the county agent office asking instructions on certain skills. There is no charge for par ticipants, unless a fee is required for materials or speakers. Mrs. Boyd stresses the fact that it is not a club type program but rather “a service, open to the public.” The only restriction is that those at tending must be residents of Spalding County. Other counties provide similar services. The number attending depends on the type of program. It varies from 15 to 40 people. Some sessions are limited because of the type of in struction such as knitting or bread making. The only registration the extension office asks is that one calls, writes, or drops by if planning to attend. This is to assure that enough people are interested. The programs are usually held in the Conference Room of the Spalding Extension office on Fifth street. Local clubs and organizations, especially women groups, use these programs at their meetings. The extension service tries to have programs available to suit everyone’s individual interest. According to Mrs. Boyd, some of the more popular programs are the microwave oven workshops, food, clothing, decorating, and home fur nishing programs. The agent has received more calls this year for food preservation. Several men attended a program by Jack Smith, county agent, on gardening in the spring. The outdoor cookery program is another example of programs taylored for both men and women. Mrs. Boyd en courages all men to attend these programs. The extension service tries to reach a wide range of the public from the youth to the elderly. Some programs are available at morning, some in the afternoon, and some at night to enable more people to attend. The Dr. Schwab guest minister Dr. Charles F. Schwab will fill the pulpit at the First Christian Church Sunday morning in the absence of the Rev. Don Hun saker who is on vacation. Dr. Schwab served First Christian Church as interim minister from September 1,1975 through March 15, 1976. Dr. and Mrs. Schwab reside at 608 Glendale avenue, Decatur. programs vary in length from one to two hours. The extension service offers a lunchtime program which allows the working person to attend. It begins at 12:15 and lasts for 30 minutes. Workers bring their lunch and eat while enjoying the program. This program is discontinued for the summer but will resume in the fan. Every six months, a schedule is printed up with information concerning the programs. The schedule includes when, length of program, brief description, and limit or fee if required. The new program schedule is available at the extension of fice. The July program held this week was on window shades. Mrs. Boyd taught a group how to measure for and make decorative fabric window shades. The August program will last for four days and is entitled “Beginner Knitting.” The classes will be held Aug. 9,11, 16, and 18 at 10:30 a.m. in the conference room. The class will be limited to 20 and will last one and one-half hours. Mrs. Boyd hopes everyone willnotonly attend the programs but will use all the assistance available through the Spalding Extension Service.

(AP) - The way authorities handled looters arrested during the electrical blackout last week in New York City demonstrates why crime deterrent programs have failed, Lt. Gov. Zell Miller said Thursday. “With only a few exceptions, officials seemed to be apologiz ing for the lawlessness, making excuses for those who took ad vantage of the situation to loot and destroy,” Miller told the Georgia Sheriffs Association. “At the same time, the courts were ill-equipped to handle the large number of criminals who were arrested. “While almost everyone is in agreement that swift and se vere penalties are one of the most effective deterrents to crime, it is distressingly evident that our courts are not capable of handling the vast caseload with which they are faced,” he said.
