Jane couldn’t hear. John couldn’t tails..
Life didn't hold much promise for either brother or sister.
An elderly grandmother cared for them and felt that if she fed,
clothed and housed them, that was enough.
A Department of Human Resources caseworker decided
the two handicapped youngsters deserved more. She checked
into their background and found that Jane had been born
deaf. John had cerebral palsy and spent most of his time tied
ir. a wheelchair. The grandmother explained she tied him so
that he wouldn’t fall out. The children’s mother had married
and moved out of the home.
The caseworker tried to convince the grandmother to send
the youngsters to special schools. After several months, the
grandmother agreed to send Jane to a school for the deaf. She
found a job at the school to he near the child. John now
attends a special cerebral palsy school. Both go to classes
regularly and are doing well.
With the help of a hearing aid, Jane can hear some sounds.
John is learning to talk. And someday both children will he

Job rates differ
for high school grads
Unemployment rates are
about the same for boys as for
girls among school dropouts,
but the unemployment rates
have been consistently higher
for girl high school graduates
than for boys in recent years.
Black high school graduates
have an unemployment rate
about twice as great as that of
white graduates, according to
the U.S. Department of La
bor’s Bureau of Labor Statis
tics. CNS

Ga. Mountains Area Health Council
Okays Proposed Hall County Hospitals
At the October meeting of the
Georgia Mountains Area
Comprehensive Health
Advisory Council, two major
hospital construction projects,
in Hall County, were approved.
The proposed construction of
Lanier Hospital, a 120 bed
private non-profit facility, and
a proposed 127 bed expansion of
Hall County Hospital were the
two issues voted on.
The council’s recom
mendations will now go to the
State Department of Human
Resources, and its staff will
determine each facility’s
eligibility for reimbursement
for capital expenditures under
Medicare, Medicaid and Child
Health Programs.
The next project to come
before the council for review
Blue Jeans -Young people
coming through the Capitol
often wear their blue jeans.
Oldster, watching them, said,
“Nothing new. When Teddy
Roosevelt was President, he
came to speak at Georgia
Tech, and all 500 students had
on their overalls.”
School’s Star: Some wit
said, “Every September
thousands of bright, eager
faces turn toward school.
They belong to mothers.”
His Heaven -We have
schoolmen at the Capitol
almost every day, with their
students and teachers. One
told me this tale: A schoolman
said, “I like being a school
superintendent. I hope God
lets me be one in Heaven. But
I want to design my own
school, and it will be halfway
between an orphanage and a
penitentiary. In an orphanage,
there are no parents to meddle
and in a penitentiary, the
alumni don’t come back to tell
you how to run it.”
Golden Eagle: We have one
mounted in the 4th floor
Museum at the Captiol. See it
when you come.
Books They Brought Two
men, whose busts are here,
brought books to Georgia.
Oglethorpe brought Raleigh’s
Diary because he mistakenly
thought that Raleigh had once
been in Georgia. Abraham
Baldwin brought the blueback

STORY!

New England.
The Novelists: We had a
governor who wrote novels,
“Little Joe Brown”, and we
also had a Senator that wrote
them. Tom Watson, wrote one
called BETHANY. But he also
wrote biographies. One was
about Napoleon. Tom
Watson’s statue stands in front
of the Capitol, with hand
upraised, as if he is telling us
how it is.
The gorgeous colors: I never
can decide whether the
Capitol grounds are most
beautiful with golden
chrysanthemums in autumn or
with red tulips in spring.
Anything embarrass you?
Some people think they’re the
only ones with physical
imperfections. You can see in
George Washington’s portrait
here what his biographers say:
that he was embarrassed by his
huge hands, kept them behind
him and didn’t like to shake
hands, and that his face was
scarred by smallpox that he
got in the West Indies where
he went to take his sick
brother, Lawrence, who left
him Mount Vernon.
