Not pictured is David Sapp. The 4-H Cotton Boll and Consumer Jamboree activity featured two facets of competi tion. Senior 4-H'ers (grades 9- 12) presented a two-minute speech on cotton. 4-H'ers in grades 5- 8 prepared a poster to promote cotton and used the Your Personal Wedding Plannei poster to present a thirty second commercial. Each contestant also tested their clothing and consumer knowledge by ranking four classes of clothing, consumer goods or services from "best to worst" for a particular buying situation. The 4-H'ers learned how to make knowledgeable, rational decisions when purchasing goods and services. The Junior team finished second in the contest and received cotton canvas luggage. The Senior team finished second and received cotton canvas luggage. They also qualified to compete in State Cotton Boll and Consumer Jamboree to be held at Rock Eagle 4-H Center in December against nine other teams from across the state. Brittany Pate received a special award at the contest for having the top female individual score overall in the contest. The 4-H Cotton Boll and Consumer Jamboree is spon sored by the Georgia Agricul tural Commodity Commission for Cotton and the University of Georgia College of Agricultural and Environmental Science's Cooperative Extension Service.

Four Call For A Free Consultation 435-8897 citizens of Georgia, to decide if you want to adopt this change. Simply stated the adopted resolution would set forth policies that define the circum stances of a tax problem. If there is determined to be a problem, the resolution would allow the politician a grace period of 12 months, not to have the taxes fully paid, but to have an agreed upon payment plan. It should also be noted that this does not keep anyone from voting, thus, it is not a poll tax, as some have suggested. While this bill is even more flexible than I personally would like, as a politician I believe it is a fair compromise to begin the process of fixing this problem. Legally, the bill would include the following statement when a person is qualifying to run for office: no person “who is a defaulter for any federal, state, county, municipal, or school system taxes required of such Make Lasting Impressions! 883*0630 Beverly Johnson Teresa Whitley .

If you would like to have the ability to vote on this Constitu tional change, please contact your State Senator or member of the State House of Represen tatives and ask them to support the resolution, HR126.
