i \ The Taylor County Ga. Nows Friday, September 14, 1462 f 4 I POLITICAL PUN by RdB Qo\j+P vo# ■5 »4rJPE P s X got rt boys no**J, vmVio.1 do i^ou v^jo-Vi-t f* This I Believe by JOHN HUGHES New York Taxi Driver I believe honesty is one of the greatest gifts there is. I know they call it a lot of fancy names these days like integrity and forthrightness. But it does not make any difference what they call it, it’s still what makes a man a good citizen. This is my code and I try to live by it. I’ve been in the taxicab business for thirty-five years. When 1 first started driving a cab, Park Avenue was mostly a bunch of coal yards. Hoofer’s Brewery was right next to where the Waldorf-Astoria is now. I did pretty well, even in those days. I have never had any trouble with the public, not even with drunks. Even if they get a little headstrong once in a while, I just agree with them and then they behave themselves. People ask me about tips. As far as I know, practically everyone will give you some thing. Come to think of it, most Americans are pretty generous. I always try to be nice to everyone, whether they tip or not. I believe in God and try to be a good member of my parish. I try to act toward others like 1 think God wants me to act. 1 have been trying this for a long time, and the longer 1 try the easier it gets. SPONSORED BY EDWARDS’ FUNERAL HOME BUTLER .

Pre-planning week, beginning August 27th for all teachers was very profitable. August 27 and 28 were spent in coopera tive planning of all teachers of Taylor County which was held at Eureka High. On August 29th teachers be gan concrete planning at their various schools. Ereka High School accepted as theme of the year, presented by Prin cipal Hicks, "Teaching-ACall- ing To Fulfill”. All plans were centered around this particular theme. A very close evalua tion was made of last term's school program for the pur pose of making improvement. Committees were appointed. Principal Hicks pointed up that through close cooperation, which brough about improved student attendance, Eureka High School was able to earn an addi tional teacher, making a total of twenty-five teachers. Teach er assignments were made as follows: First Grade - Blanche Dixon and Frances O’Bryant Second Grade - Essie Mc- Dougald and Leathy McCrary Third Grade - A. L.

The school day began with a well planned assembly program with several faculty members participating. “Some of the Challenges Facing Stu dents Today” was the theme of Principal Hicks’ address. Faculty members were intro duced after which students were directed to their designated rooms for registration and guidance. The Regional Meeting of Re gion VI of theGeorgiaTeachers and Education Association will be held on October 18, 1962, in Americus, Ga.

(719tf) VOICE OF THE PEOPLE Dear Editor: May I ask a favor of your fine paper? Please publish a series of articles on Taylor County Education featuring pro- fes r mal advise and opinions of local educators regarding fi nancing, schedule of classes, property tax re-evaluation, millage, future planning, and school consolidation. In my opinion this series should stress the advantages and dis advantages of a consolidated high school. Many small coun ties have consolidated with won derful results. I feel this series is needed in view of the confusion caused in recent weeks by the abun dance of conflicting statements, rumors etc. An example of charges heard include: Rey nolds Schools have padded the roll in order to keep teachers and the State Board of Educa tion on several occasions has recommended that we consoli date to one high school. Taylor County is fifteen years behind other counties in indus trial development. Do we also have to remain fifteen years behind in education? Mr. Marchman and the Board of Education were kind enough to review some of the above problems to a small group of interested citizens last Thurs day night but all citizens should be informed. Specific solutions should be found to avoid shuf fling of schedules and the year postponement of the inevitable. Sincerely, Harold Brown Keep your engine clean with RPM MOTOR OILS Legal Notice CITATION FOR YEAR'S SUPPORT GEORGIA - TAYLOR COUNTY: Taylor County Court of Ordi nary. September 3, 1962.
