FOUR PRODUCTIVE FACTORS
THOUGHTS: It is well for us to reali/!<» vhat we are facing crucial conditions
that require deliberate and wise thinking. Thoughts are dynamic
forces that often shai>e our destiny. It is with this idea in mind
that we think for the interest of our friends and relieve them
of cares and worries.
DOVE: LOVE is the fundamental principle of life, and in order for us
to reap the fruit of love, we must demonstrate a kind and help¬
ful attitude towards others. This is our daily practice in all
business relations.
ACTIONS: OCR every act is based upon a high motive to render the most
skillful service at the most reasonable prices. We guarantee
always an extra measure of service and more considerate terms.
“Actions speak louder than words.”
TRUST: WE are mindful of the trust and confidence placed in us by our
friends and these factors stimulate us to higher endeavors and
enable us to render a m ore beautiful and satisfactory service to
all.
“Four things a man must learn to do
If he would make his record true;
To THINK without confusion clearly;
To LOVE his fellow men sincerely;
To TRUST in God and Heaven securely.”

TUI SAVANKAH TKIBUTfA
lALLArtA.r-3r.il. FLORIDA -JULY 3U—Well we didn't quite
make It to Columbus for the state tennis tournament but in¬
stead arrived here Wednesday morning at the ungodly hour
of 4:1 “ya. m.”
. . Came down as an observer at the Third A nnual Florida
A. and M- College Journalism seminar . Serving as consultants
were some of Amerba’s ace newsmen . The group included L>
11 Davis, president, The National Negro Publishers Association
and general manager The Kansas City Call; J. I). Diaz, editor,
Florida edition, The Pittf.burgh Courier and Sam I). Solomon,
editor, Florida edition, The Afro-American. The latter two
dott' le as sports scribes when the need arises . And as may
be expected during our “off moments” the topic turned to
sports. . .
Following two sess’ons Wednesday afternoonn we ran into
Wallace Raw.tins, the number one player on the highly touted
Famce tennis squad . . We remember when the former Knox¬
ville. Tenn, “lad” was an important cog in te Austin high,
cage machine . he made the all-state squad at least two
years . . Entering Florida in September of ’44 he made the
first string cage squad and earned a highly respected deputa¬
tion as a hock shot artist in the powerful SIAC. Spring time
iound him on the tennis courts where he was equally as sue-
essful. If our memory is right, he atrd teammate Bill Exum
were defeated L 1 the doubles finals of the Tuakegee Invitation¬
al by Alba Tabor, conference singles champ and Savan¬
nah’s own CHARLES Pl'RRY . . Later in the same year Wal¬
lace entered Service and became a member of one of the cage
squads at Ft. Benning . .Uprin discharge “Hawk” returned to
Famcee where he again “hit” the hardwood and clay courts .
Around 5 p. m« Lie iwo of us went down to the tennis courts
for a few practice shorts . . Soon we were joined by Walter Aus¬
tin. a' ting dean, the Department of Agriculture, and oh yes,
also the tennis coach. . Austin is the former Southern Univer¬
sity tennis ace who topped the inter-collegiate title in 1916 at
Wilberforee by defeating that institution’s Jack Points who
'eld the Mid-Wester,! singles title. . Earlier in the season at
the “Skegec” invitational “Walt” scored an easy victory over
my former teammate Harold Jimith of Grand Rapids- Mieli. . .
During the course of the mateh “Hal” used six racquets bu 4
to no avail . . .“Walt” was seeder! number two in the meet and
his teammate Ed Bouey number one . . and the two were
fought their wav to the finals hut rain forced cancellation of
the match. . . With the exception of the part about he rain
this was practically the same story throughout inter-collegiate
tennis circles that year as the two dominated iust about every
meet begVning with the Prairie View invitational and con¬
cluded with the Southwestern Conference, championship . .
Incidentally Bouev is now- a successful radio and television
script writer in the east. .
Speaking of Bouey brings to mind a tale about him that
has been floating around in mid-west circles since 1947. . . It
seen u that he was out stroki'.q; with Wilmington’s IN. C.)
Althea Gibson (now national wortien’s singles champ 1 and she
asked him to play a set . . but he declined . Despite shouts
.
from the fans Bouey refused to be drawn into a battle with
Althea . This occurred during the 1941 Missouri Valley open
at Kansas City . .
Coach Austin received his M. S. at Kansas State in ’47 and
joined the faculty of Tennessee State College during the fall .
Last Summer he married one of Savannah’s most popular
young ladies . . the former Miss Edwena Robinson of Reynolds
street. The two now have a charmipg young daughter. . they
call her Pat for short. . Austin leaves soon for the University
of California to pursue work on his Ph D. .
RAMBLING IN SPORTS—Althea Gibson, national women
singles tennis champion a,id Helen Munday, national girls
singles champ are enrolled at Florida A. & .W. . .South Caroli¬
na State was among the many institutions which sought the
two but in vain . Don Neweombe is now a full-fledged major
league hurler. . he eight hitted St. Louis Cardinals Sunday
as the Dodgers, triumphed 4-2. Its rumored in Florida that
Coaches Wvsinger and Webster at Ilethune-Cookman are “out.”
The twilight softball league al Famcee draws large crowds
every evening. . Football season is just around the corner . .
Jackie Robinson (onlinues to play heads up ball . . Every time
the Dodgers approach the N Y. Giants about purchasing big
Johny Mize. . Durocher says “send me Campanella” . . Sammy
Jethro Montreal speedster has stolen at least 54 bases . . just
recently he stole four in one day (double-header) . . He’s also
scored from second on infield out (no error) . . The ATA ten¬
nis ton y lament is slated for Wilberforee August 22-27 . . School
Boy Mitchell, Los Angeles, is favored to give titleholder George
Stewart his toughest competition . incidentally remember you
saw it here first . . Stewart will soon be featured in Life Mag¬
azine.

Mr. Edward Smalls, W. 44th Street
I am a well known citizen of Savan¬
nah. Three years ago I was strick¬
en with Arthritis and Neuritis. I mean
it really had me- I was helpless. Af¬
ter taking seven treatments from Mrs.
Heyward I began shaving myself and
dressing myself in full. What a bless¬
ing I found when I found Mrs. Hey¬
ward’s Steam Cabinet.
(Guess Who)—I am from Coosawhat-
chie- S C. and had made several
trips over here to the Doctor for treat¬
ments for this Arthritis in my shoul¬
ders and neck. The medicine was not
doing me any good but after pairing
and aching for days and nights, I
felt that something should be done, so
I would trv the Doctor again. After
hearing about these treatments I
started them and have had greater re¬
lief than I have had for years.
Mrs Josephine Samuels. Marlow, Ga.
After taking ten treatments for re¬
ducing I had lost 8 lbs and 1 1-4 inch
around my hips and 1-V. inch around
my thighs. After taking the treat¬

We both were in bad shape.
Mrs. Wright—J. was so very nervoua
and had arthritis in my shoulders so
bad that I could not do my work. I
have had treatments from Mrs. Hey¬
ward and now my shoulders do not
ache at all-
Mr. Wright—I had a pain in the
back that the Doctor had treated and
had taken two X.iays. I had given
up because the Doctor was not doing
me any good and could not find the
trouble. I went to Mrs Heyward an
after 10 treatments. I feel like a nr
man. I do not have any pains after
hard day’s work on the Railroad.
July, 1949
In 1946 I was a sufferer of Arthri¬
tis that affected me greatly in walking.
I was treated by my doctor and got
all right, I thought, but the last week
of December it returned and I called
my doctor, he treated me Some
days I would feel better, finally af- ;
ter a course of three weeks, the medi¬
cine turned on me. I could not take
it. hence I finally grew helpless and I
'was feeling that I would always be a
cripple. Some one came to see me
and :aid if I was strong enough she
believed the treatments by Mrs. Hey¬
ward would help me. The first treat¬
ment I was able to put on my shoes,
myself T took about 20 or more treat¬
ments. and I am glad to recommend
the treatments to all sufferers of any
form of rheumatism.
