Thirty years ago, Air Canada says, these were the instruc tions to hostesses on flights from Vancouver, Canada, to Boeing Field here: 1. Warn passengers against throwing cigarettes and cigars out the window. 2. Keep the clock wound up in the passenger cabin. 3. Carry a railroad timetable in case the plane is grounded. 4. Keep an eye on passengers when they go to the toilet to be sure they don’t mistakenly go out the emergency exit. f * IBi \ Ik Hr \ i W ■ } bsWE .

The same ticket buys passes through parts of Honolulu less popular with tourists. Lind, a retired college profes sor, says he doesn’t regard himself as a tour conductor, but his bus trips are standing room only. The 75-year-old Lind taught sociology at the University of Hawaii for 50 years. He con ducts his “sociological tour of Honolulu” aboard an air-condi tioned bus. “A sociological tour means those who do go have a deeper interest in the community,” said Lind. “The tourist might be intrigued by the interracial character of the city and he or she may get further insight into what that involves.” The bus snakes through Honolulu’s back streets and seamy alleys and crawls up the ton and the construction of a water line from 1-75 along Ga. 81 to Ga. 3. The giant storage tank will increase storage and pressure for the Hampton area. The total cost of the pageant is just over $1,000,000. narrow mountain roads with Lind pointing out sights in a changing city. Wealthy and poor neighborhoods are side-by side and high-rise buildings sprout in areas that were cane fields not long ago. The passengers are usually a mix of tourists and local resi dents. Lind said many who sign up are retired school teachers who have never been off the beaten track. He said the jour ney is an outgrowth of his teaching days when he led stu dents on the same tour. Page 19 Social changes are noted frequently by the tourmaster. As the bus passes a country club, Lind tells passengers it used to be for whites only. The bus continues through a well-to do section of Honolulu which Lind says once had the reputa tion of being very rich and con servative. But World War II brought many changes, Lind says. He says many older residents of Honolulu sold their property and moved to the Mainland. —Griffin Daily News Thursday, September 29, 1977 Nichols family reunion attracts large number The Nichols family reunion was held recently with a large number of relatives attending. Those from Griffin included: Mr. and Mrs. W.H. Nichols, Mr. and Mrs. W.F. Comer and children, Mike Bowman, Mr. and Mrs. J.T. Nichols, and children, Mrs. David Stanford Mrs. Brenda Harry, Junior and Farmer doesn’t like money HAMILTON, Ohio (AP) - Fanner George Eaton may not like money, but a jury has ruled he must accept $24,750 from a utility company for an easement across his land. “Money is the root of all evil,” Eaton told Butler County Common Pleas Judge Fred Cramer. “It comes between neighbors and relatives. I think you can live without it.” Eaton said he didn’t mind granting Cincinnati Gas & Elec tric Co. a 7.4-acre easment for power lines. He just didn’t want the money. Ohio law requires a jury to set a fair price for easements if the owner cannot come to an agreement on a price with a utility. Cincinnati Gas officials said it was the first time an agreement could not be reached with a property owner because the owner would not accept money. Although Eaton didn’t want the money, his wife told Cramer she would accept it. I The Real Estate Academy, Inc. THE PROFESSIONALS Obtain Your License.
