Glenn Cox, Mgr.
W ORDS go buzzing around in
Ollie Reeves' head until two or more
that sound alike strike up a speaking
acquaintance. Then Ollie Reeves sits
down and writes a poem. For him, it's
easy. He just naturally has a knack
fer rhyming words, as you quickly note
when you read his "Rhyme A Day" in
The Constitution.
Poet laureate of Georgia, Ollie Reeves
generally writes with a touch light as
a blown kiss but then sometimes his
wards sit down on you like a bciling
mad bumble bee.
He likes to "kid" in verse, and nothing
suits his fancy better than to pick
some oddity in the news and poke a
little poetic fun at it.
So, you see, there's many a smile at
breakfast over Ollie Reeves' rhymes.

NOW USE
j HALF AGAIN AS MUCH ELECTRICITY
AS THE AVERAGE U.S. HOME!
• Georgians can be proud of the fact that their
• homes use 50% more electricity than the average
• American home because the use of electricity in
• the home is one way to judge the living standard.
2 The greater the use of electricity, the higher the
2 standard of living. On this basis, Georgia is way
• ahead of the nation —in healthier, happier, more
} livable homes ... as a better place to live.
