CENTENNIAL
GEORGIA
/ HrJjrl
Peter Zdck Geer, Chairman
Civil War Centennial Commission
It is encouraging to find that local organizations
throughout Georgia are beginning to take an active
interest in commemorating the War Between the
States. There is now an active organization in almost
one-third of the counties and others are being added
every week.
It has been our experience that when local groups
are better informed as to the origin and purpose of the !
Centennial they are more interested in participating.
The success of the Centennial depends on leadership on
the local level.
Origin and Purpose
The Centennial Commission of Georgia was created
by executive order in April, 1959 for the purpose of
observing one of the most important chapters in our
history. It is not a celebration in the sense that it is
an occasion for merriment or jollification—it is a com
memoration to honor those Georgians who sacrificed,
fought and died for the principles in which they
believed.
A host of outstanding Georgians, including civic,
business and professional leaders, members of UDC
and SCV, historians and others interested in the Civil
War observance were named on the Commission.
The first statewide event of the Commission was
the Centennial Premier of “Gone with the Wind” and
the Benefit Costume Ball, which was attended by a
number of Hollywood personalities, including many
of the leading stars in the movie. The official beginning
of the commemoration of the War Between The States
was the re-enactment of the Secession Convention,
along with parades, balls and other festivities in
Milledgeville January 19-21.
Many other important state-wide projects are being
undertaken and planned by the Commission, but the
chief aim is to assist local committees in planning
appropriate ceremonies during the Centennial period.
The five-fold purpose of the Centennial Commission
is as follows: 1
1. To honor the valor and sacrifice of Georgians
who fought and died for principles which they
believed eternal, and for the sons of other Con
federate states who also made the supreme-
sacrifice.
2. To perpetuate a knowledge of the deeds and
traditions of a valiant people who, through the
terrible ordeals of a great war, forged one
nation under God.
8. To educate the public concerning the campaigns,
shrines, the personalities and the human story
of the conflict in Georgia, in the faith that the
knowledge of truth will finally lead to understand
ing and not resentment.
4. To preserve the monuments, the graves, the relics
and the ruins of the wartime past to remind this
and future generations of their link with history.
6. To locate and preserve valuable documents,
diaries, manuscripts, photographs, newspapers
and other records contributing to the true history
of the war. Encourage the persons who own such
mementos to take or send them to the state
archives or some local agency for filming.
In subsequent columns, the activities of local organi
zations throughout the State will be reported, along
with suggestions from members of the Commission
as to how to set up committees in those counties and
cities which have not yet done so.
MEADE DONATES COTTAGES TO FFA1FHA
Dedication ceremonies at which the Mead Corporation presented the keys to the new dor
mitory it has constructed for the State FFA-FHA camp near Jackson attracted 500 Georgia
youths and agricultural and business leaders from throughout the state. Following the dedi
cation, H. E. Whitaker, Mead chairman of the board, presented the chrome plated shovel used
at ground breaking ceremonies last summer. The group here includes, left to right: John J.
McDonough, Mead director and president, Ga. Power Co.; Don Thompson, Greenville, State
FFA president; Carole Raines, Ashburn, State FHA president; Whitaker, and N.S. Mead, direc
tor and president, Mead paper sales. The cottage is named in honor of Mr. Mead’s father,
George H. Mead.
