PUBLISHED EVERY THURSDAY Average Weekly Circulation Fifteen Hundred Copies Phone: UN. 2-4485 Truer words were never spoken: If you had enough money to go in business in this day and age you wouldn’t need the business. For Griffin, Yes! Times have changed noticeably. We can recall when a youngster misbehaved to get attention, he generally got it. — Cartersville Chuckles.

I 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. Two Negro Youths Drowned in Houston County Farm Pond 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.
