The blade of a power law mower,
traveling at about 150 miles an
hour, can turn a small object such
as a rock, piece of metal or bone
into a missile as dangerous as a
bullet, warns an expert.

The American Medical Associa
tion points out that the main causes
of blindness in the United
States are glaucoma, cataracts and
accidents. Most of the accidents
could be prevented by the exercise
of simple precautions on the part
of children and their parents. Most
cases of cataracts can be dealt with
by surgery. Glaucoma, if recog
nized lh v its early stages, and if
adequate and sustained treatment
is given, can be checked and stabi
lized. One reliable estimate says
that half the blindness in the
country could be prevented, or
cured.—Covington News.
(Screven County News)
The readers of this newspaper
should know by now, that we are
100 per cent for former Governor
Marvin Griffin for Governor. We be
lieve he is by far the best man in
the race, and now that Lt. Gov.
Galand Byrd has been forced out of
the race by illness, we see no great
difficulty in his getting a majority
of the votes cast in the regular
Democratic Primary on Sept. 12th.
We cannot visualize the good
solid citizens of the State of Geor
gia having a tool of the Atlanta
Newspapers, Big Banking Interests
and NAACP crammed down their
throat. We have a better opinion of
this state than to anticipate their
suffrage could be bought with con
taminated money put out by sel
fish interest groups in Atlanta. We
feel certain that our county of
Screven will not.

5-Day School Week
We were pt ased to read, the
other day, that .he Salzburgers are (
credited with having started the
five days a week school. As every
one knows, school is "out” for the
week when Friday afternoon ar
rives and some historians say this i
is because the Salzburger pastors,!
who were also the teachers at Ebe-
nezer School on the banks of the I
Savannah River, in old Effingham;
county, needed Saturdays to visit
their flocks and prepare their ser
mons.
So, boys and girls, you can
thank the straight-laced German
pastor-teachers who did not spare
the rod, for that extra day of free
dom. — Jeff Davis Ledger.
We shall steer safely through
every storm, so long as our heart
is right, our intention fervent, our
courage steadfast, and our trust I
fixed on God. If at times we are
somewhat stunned by the tempest,
never fear. Let us take breath and
go on afresh. — Francis De Sales.
Altho a few days late, those
monthly subscription notices went
out recently we hope each recipient
is going to respond. The cost of |
operation continues to climb and
those who keep procrastinating
may miss their paper. This we hope
will not happen but we don’t know
if you wish to renew unless we hear
from you with the remittance. The
Post Office Department requires |
subscriptions to be paid in advance.
Perry, Ga. — Two teen-age youths
drowned in a farm pond near Perry
Sunday after both were apparently
stricken by cramps.
Houston Sheriff Chapman and
Deputy Chapman said the youths
drowned in approximately eight
feet of water.
They were identified as Frank
Frieson of St. Mary’s and Calvin
Simmons of Houston County. They
were both Negroes and listed as
about 18 year of age.
The law officers said the two
voctims were in a party of four
which went to the lake on a swim
ming outingSunday. Accompanying
them were Sammy Hugusley and
Johnny Robinson both of Houston
county.
With a high school graduate,
"commencement” is the beginning.
A boy or girl can secure a college
education in this age if they want
one. Statistics show that a college
education means an increase in
earning power.
Some Questions
Answered Concerning
Summer School Work
In order to clear up some of the
questions that arise concerning
summer school work for high school
students, this is quoted from the
Georgia Accrediting Commission
Bulletin.
1. Credit can be given by an in
stitution only, not by an individu
al; consequently, no credit can be
given for courses completed by a
tutor.
2. Summer school credit, of cours
es completed in any manner, must
be limited to one and one-half
units. This means that no student
may earn more than three one-half
units credit by any method be
tween the end of the spring term
and the beginning of the fall term.
Work completed In summer school
must be on the same basis as regu
lar term work, except 120 clock
hours for the time requirements for
a unit of new or makeup work will
be regarded as acceptable.
The above stated regulations
make the organization of summer
work for credit in Butler High
impractical. We suggest that stu-
Cason Vegetable
Gardens Dedicated
By W. A. Sutton
At 11 a. m. June 16, ceremonies
marking the formal opening of “Mr
Cason’s Vegetable Garden" at Ida
Cason’s Calloway Gardens were be
gun. Introductions were made and
Director Sutton spoke on the out
standing accomplishments as he
knew them in the life of Mr. Callo
way. After this, a tour was made
of the wellkept vegetable garden to
see how gardens should be kept
and many varieties of tomatoes,
egg plants, strawberries, cabbage,
celery, carrots, beans, peas, etc.
Eight ladies accompanied by the
Home Demonstration Agent attend
ed from this county
dents who are deficient in certain
areas make arrangements to do
summer work with a tutor in
preparation for the work to be re
quired next year. If units are an
absolute must, then the individual
should investigate the possibility of
attending an accredited summer
school in one of our larger cities.

14 Counts After
Chase by Cops
Marietta, Ga. — A Decatur man
faces 14 charges after his arrest
ended an auto chase which police
said reached speeds of 110 miles an
hour.
He is 22 year old Marvin A. Bal-
liew and, according to police in

one-way street, shot thru the city
square at 90 miles an hour and fi-
nally smashed up at the intersec
tion of Ga. 3 and Bells Ferry Rd.
Powder Springs police Chief
Earl King said Balliew’s car con
tained 20 gallons of moonshine
liquor.
There is a sweet joy that comes
to us thru sorrow. — Charles Spur
