THE BUTLER HERALD, BUTLER, GEORGIA, JULY 19. 1962. PAmr tttreE Off to College At 73 Years of Age For Glenwood Man al f%eedotH © NRECA The shield and the torch are famijiar to Ameri cans as symbols of their freedom. Willie Wiredhand, too, is a symbol of freedom . . . the right of free people, working with their government, to make a choice — and take action to help themselves ... in solving a problem by the only means open to them. The need was for electric service, at reasonable rates, about a quarter-century ago, in almost 95% of the land. The solution was the organization of electric cooperatives. The people—in a free land —exercising their democratic rights . . . taking the initiative to satisfy a great need. Now, with almost 98% of rural America enjoying the benefits of low-cost electric service—and over a billion dollars repaid to the REA in payment of the costs of construction—plus another half-billion in interest—the electric co-ops have a vital place in our nation’s economy. They are the assurance of continued low-cost electric service for almost 17 million people . . . and help sustain an annual market for millions of dollar* worth of electric appliances and equipment . . .

Thrifty Meals | For Busy Days i Where does your food dollar go? In many homes the meat or meat substitute dishes (protein foods) take the larger share of the food dollar. About the same amount is spent for fats, sweets, potatoes, vegetables and fruits. Milk products rank third and grain and cereal products fourth. Watch the cost of fruits and vegetables. Buy what is in season and make the most of what you buy. Remember that those ready- prepared foods cost more.

Highways TO THE VOTERS OF TAYLOR COIIKTY The decision by the Taylor County Board of Education to call a Bond Election for the purpose of building a Gymnasium at the Eureka School at Butler was made after several months of thought and the realization by the Board of Education that such a building at this school was badly needed. For the benefit of the voters and taxpayers of the County whose votes on July 25, 1962, will determine whether or not such a building will be made possible, I feel that I should provide you with certain important facts for your consideration in this matter. As is being advertised in The Butler Herald this proposal is for a Bond Issue of $60,- 000 00. Our architect has told us that a building adequate for a school of this size can be constructed for not more than $60,000.00. You are familiar with the State School Build ing Program which provides money on an annual basis at the rate of $50.00 per teacher for school house construction. The State Board of Education has ruled that in those systems where all classroom needs are met, the state allocation of funds for school house construction can be used for the construction of Auditorium and Gymnasium, pro vided the local system match state funds dollar-for-dollar. This means that the Taylor County Board of Education could utilize a part of the annual allocation of building funds to the County to pay half of the cost of the interest and principal of the proposed $60,000.00 bond issue for this gymnasium. I should like to bring out the fact, too, that the building program as set up by the State is such that these annual payments to systems like Taylor County are for a twenty-year period. The schedule of payments of principal ai outlined in the advertisement will not re quire any additional levy of taxes. The county tax digest has improved to the point that the present Four (4) Mill Levy for School Bond and Interest and Principal will take care of the County’s fifty (50) per cent of the cost of Interest and Principal of the pro posed issue. In summary, permit me to re-emphasize the following two statements: 1 Annual allocation of State Building Funds will pro vide revenue with which to pay half the cost of the Interest and Principal of the proposed Bond Issue. 2. No additional taxes will have to be levied in Taylor O’^nty to pay the County’s fifty percent of the cost of Interest and Principal of the proposed Bond Issue. Respectfully submitted, W. H. ELLISTON, Superintendent, Taylor County Schools. Atlanta, Ga. — Two persons were killed Monday in Georgia highway crashes, the State Patrol said.
