Buy U.S.Savings Bonds t REGULARLY Ask where you WORK Ask where vou BANK * a- Y Ignorance Is Expensive, Rodimon States Col. William H. Rodimon, pres ident of Georgia Military College, Milledgeville, in a brilliant and thought-provoking address, told members of the Jackson Kiwanis Club Tuesday night that “ignor ance is more expensive than edu cation” and cited as shocking and sobering that Georgia annually has 30,000 dropouts from high schools and colleges. M. L. Powell was program chairman and pre sented the distinguished educator. Col. Rodimon pointed with some dismay to the fact that there are over 200,000 adults in the state who have less than a high school education and said that GMC offered a sound, top quality education. He stated that over 95 percent of the students went on to receive a basic de gree and pointed out that GMC is one of the top nine essential military schools in the country. Col. Rodimon said too many people erroneously believe that a military college is a type of reformatory institution where actually the prime consideration is to mold good boys into better men, making them into capable, sensible men who in turn will furnish capable and sensible leadership in the world of to morrow. A military school is first and foremost an educational in stitution with a military environ ment. He proudly cited that one third of all students who have graduated from GMC are in po sitions of leadership. He further emphasized the importance of self discipline and said that dis cipline must be imposed without and that discipline must be hon ored. It was the speaker’s opinion that the young want discipline and when they find it is firm and fair they will accept it. Col. Rodimon pointed out that military schools foster patriotism and teach the fundamental princi ples of truth, honor, and service. The educator said “I see nothing wrong in being patriotic, and showing respect to the Flag, and serving one’s country.” He feels that yoUng men should aspire to serve their country and praised the ROTC program which fur nishes 79 percent of officers in the U. S. Army from civilian based schools. Col. Rodimon said that ROTC units over the coun try annually furnish over 200,- 000 Second Lieutenants for army service. An interclub delegation from Covington was present and in cluded Mel Waggoner, Ike Hay, J. E. Rainey, and Bill Dickey. Other guests included M. C. Paget, new principal at Jackson High School, Dr. Steve Van de Carr, Dentist at the Georgia Diagnostic and Classification Center, and Jere Moore of Mil ledgeville, former Editor-Publish er of the Milledgeville Union- Recorder and former president of the Georgia Press Association, who accompanied Col. Rodimon to Jackson. Ralph Carr Jr. was sa luted on his birthday during the week. Macon Group Entertain At Center Mayor Ronnie Thompson of Macon brought the Earl Striplind Group to the Georgia Diagnostic and Classification Center 'Wed nesday evening, July 23rd, for an outstanding program of pop ular songs and music that was en joyed by the more than 300 per sons in attendance. The Striplind Group appears regularly on Radio Station WDEN and Station WMAZ-TV both of Macon. The group was composed of six men and one lady and gave an outstanding per formance that was greatly appre ciated by the large audience. Warden Richard W. Ballard of the Georgia Diagnostic and Clas sification Center commended Mayor Thompson for his thought fulness in arranging for the fine entertainment. Major Robert E. Luzier and Chaplain Ben Wright of the Diagnostic Center staff were also instrumental in arrang ing for the appearance of the Striplind Group. Funds Under Title I Total Over SBO,OOO. Disadvantaged school children in Butts County will benefit from four special programs under Title I, ESEA, during the fiscal year 1969, according to State School Superintendent Jack P. Nix. W. B. Jones is Butts County School Superintendent. Funds of $80,382 will finance projects in reading instruction and in attendance, medical and community services. Title I funds under the Ele mentary and Secondary Educa tion Act are distributed locally on the basis of the number of school age children in the school system from families with less than $2,- 000 annual income. School lead ers plan their own projects to fill locally determined needs then submit them to the Georgia De partment of Education Title I Coordinator R. C. Beemon for approval.
