AIR CORPS STORIES
OKAYED FOR “WINGS”
ATLANTA, GA., Authentic cases
from the voluminous files of Army
and Navy air forces at Washington
are now dramatized on the weekly
“Wings of Destiny” series, broadcast
at 9:00 P. M. (EST) over NBC and
Station WSB, Atlanta.
The War Department and the Bu
reau of Navigation have released his
tories of air exploits by men in the
service for "Wing-s of Destiny.” Col.
R. C. Candee, chief of the Intelligence
Division, office of the chief of the Air
Corps, set the approval of the Army
on the new project. Comm. H. R. Thun
her, U. S. N„ gave permission to use
the Navy files.
Army and Navy air forces, accord
ing 'to Mel Williamson, dierctor of the
program, have produced actual exper
iences that are impossible to beat for
sheer drama. Preliminary examina
tion of some of the material to be
made available for the series has al
ready proved that these real experien
ces are more thrilling than the episo
des heretofore featured.
TEETH OF YOUNG PIGS
Pigs, when born, have eight small
tusk-like teeth. These should be cut
off with apair of pinchers or nippers
before the pigs are two days old.
These teeth are very sharp and if left
in, are liable to tear the sow’s udder.
Also, the pigs are likely to cut each
other's mouths while fighting for teat
BIRDS ARE HELPFUI.
Farmers cannot get along in grow
ing field and orchard crops without
the help of birds. Even the pine trees,
in which Georgia farmers are now so
vitally interested, would suffer heavy
mortality from attacks of the south
ern pine beetle, except for the wood
pecker drilling into the bark for the
larvae of this tree enemy.
BUSHES IN PASTURES
Bushes and briars, if left undisturb
ed, will gradually ruin any good pas
ture, in the opinion of Agricultural
Extension workers. Bushes and other
growth thrive best on the same kind
of soil that makes the best pastures.
Close grazing and frequent cutting
close to the ground will gradually
kill them out.

CHATTAHOOCHEE AND
COOPERATION
As principal of Chattahoochee Jr.
High School, I feel that I am duty
bound to say through your county
paper a few words of appreciation
for the sacrifices, the courage, good
old fashioned "grit”, of the people of
that on-coming community.
I just cannot speak too highly of
the high character of the boys and
girls of the student body. Perhaps
the most out standing work done dur
ing the whole year was done by that
body—fact is if the students do not
do outstandin work there can be no
great school work done, they are the
warp and filling of the finished pro
duct.
Of this work done by the students,
I am persuadad that the manly con
duct of the School Patrol—keeping
the grounds clear of rowdies, (actual
ly bringingin some such to the prin
cipal), keeping the halls clear of run
ning pupils, the grounds clear of
rubbish, the toilets clean and, in
general, seeing that order was main
tained on the premises, was the most
important work done by anybody on
the field.
These boys and girls left the build
ing desks without the cuts of knives
or the marks of pencils—so common
in schools of many localities.
I cannot think of the work done
without the faithful, painstaking serv
ice of the bus drivers not an acci
dent, no one w r as hurt, on all the
many trips, made by the burning of
gas and then more gas, up and down
the well known hills of the slopes of
the Chattahoochee River.
Hand and hand with these students,
Patrolmen and others, was that fine
body of teachers, who looked after
eery need of the little and the big
boys and girls of the new school—of
the five little schools that had been
of the one school housed in its new
brick building on the brow of one of
one of the outstanding hills that daily
watch the on rolling Chattahoochee.
There were dreamers in the months
and possibly the years of the immedi
ate past, those who saw this new
schoolin vision; but there was more
than adream 1 , a vision, there was
work and then more of it, there was
hauling of brick and timbers, there
was the meeting, many of them, the
decisions after discussions, the differ
ences ironed out and then the unity
of purpose—the cooperation of the
Board of Trustees.
Under and over all this was the
cooperation of the Board of Education
of the county and Its Secretary, the
County School Superintendents, the
old and the new—dreaming and work
ing, planning and performing.
Down under the whole affair was
that “mudsill” foundation, without,
when there could have been no
structure—the mothers and fathers of
the cherubs without which no school
could be had—no house needed, no
teachers, no buses, no trustees, no
anything in the school line.
It took all these, working together,
to bring results.

f Is there something
about the tone of your
telephone voice—your
way of greeting, your
rv manners, the ease with
& which you are under-
BA. stood—which gives the
wt person you are talking
|fs with a glimpse of a
** friendly face; of an
alert, attractive person
ality? Your voice and
speech together make up
your telephone personality.
It’s obvious that a pleas
ant, courteous telephone
manner creates a good im
pression at the other end of
the line. Then, too, such
littl” things as answering
promptly, speaking direct
ly into the mouthpiece, and
replacing the receiver gent
ly when you have finished
talking—all do their part
in moulding someone’s
mental image of you. So
why not make the most of
every opportunity to look
your best by telephone?
