Atlanta Children's
Theater To Return
With Two Plays
By Mri. Kathleen Pinckney,
Butts County Visiting Teacher
Plans have been completed this
week between the Butts County
Schools and the Atlanta Chil
dren’s Theater for two additional
productions in Jackson. “Beauty
and the Beast” will be presented
February 5 and 6 and “Punch
and Judy” on April 2 and 3.
A guarantee of SIBOO i& neces
sary to bring each of these plays
to our school. The Board of Edu
cation does not have funds avail
able to support such an under
taking.
Atlanta Children's Theater pro
ductions are not being offered as
a money making project by the
school or any group associated
with the school. They were asked
for 2 reasons; (1) few of Butts
County’s children have the oppor
tunity to see live theater as do
children in Atlanta and other
large systems, (2) with the audi
torium facility which we have,
Butts county children should be
able to enjoy any cultural en
richment opportunity available to
any other children.
Because many parents indica
ted interest, “Jack and the Bean
stalk” was brought by the schools
literally on faith, believing that
1800 students would want to at
tend. With the encouragement
and support of teachers, kinder
garten children and their parents,
and interested adults in the com
munity, 2100 tickets were sold
at SI.OO each.
“Jack and the Beanstalk” was
esthusiastically received by stu
dents and teachers. The Theater
group, in spite of many hours of
overtime to adjust props and
script to our auditorium, thor
oughly enjoyed the response from
their audiences.
Again, the schools, based on
faith in the desire of the com
munity to provide our children
with the opportunity of live the
ater, have arranged for these two
additonal productions. The only
difference this time is that there
is a cushion on hand of S3OO in
case we fall short of the SIBOO.
For “Jack and the Beanstalk,”
the public was not urged to' at
tend because it was hoped all
2600 students could and would
attend, and thus seating for ex
tras would not be available. How
ever, since this was not possible,
there will be seats available at
the next two productions for par
ents and interested community
adults. Tickets will be SI.OO
each.

We read a
lot in the news
papers and
m agazines
about the re
sults of polls
that have been
taken. Most of
the publicized
(mils are about politically related
subjects. One poll you probably
haven’t read about was made to
find out what people WORRY
about! The high worry area was
MONEY problems! A whopping
37% of the families polled said
that money problems were their
greatest worry. The study showed
young families worry most and
that “worry” does not begin to
wane until the mid-forties.
There are several reasons why
this is logical. Young families
have more needs and wants to
fulfill than established families
have. And, their incomes have
not yet reached their peak.
The real trouble with most
money worries is inadequate plan
ning. You can completely abdicate
your right to manage your
money. This is easy to do when
you’re heavily committed to in
stallment buying, budget ac
counts, and compulsory savings
plans. In effect you’re paying
someone else to do your budget
ing and you do pay for the ser
vice.
There are extreme pressures on
you today to let others “manage
your money”. You’re urged to
use their services for convenience
and to relinquish your worries to
your creditors. If you go over
board with this type operation,
you may develop an accumulated
big money worry instead of smal
ler ones that are easier to handle.

thought about what you ultimate
ly want from your money, your
long range goals will materialize
more slowly. They may not ma
terialize at all.
PLANNED SPENDING is the
first step in solving money wor
ries. You can replace anxiety by
coming to gripe with the extent
of your income, and what it has
to cover. When you’ve done this
you’re in a better position to
plan for the “extras” and to de
termine the order in which they
should come. You think more
clearly when you’re cool, calm,
and collected at home than when
you’re under pressure to buy be
cause it’s easy and enticing. Plan
ning at home is much more likely
to provide what’s most important
to you at the earliest possible

over-board in day-to-day buying.
Warm Idea
Looking for a good warm meal
to serve your family on these
cold January and February days?
Many Butts County homemakers
know how to use the old bean
for these meals.
Here is a tasty tip. Serve your
family Chili Con Carne. It’s a
cold weather treat.
Dry beans, particularly pea
and pinto beans, are in good
supply now, so chances are they’ll
be featured at attractive prices.

Clothing Speaks
Clothing communicates. That’s
right. It has a message to tell
the people with whom we come in
contact with each day.
Have you ever thought about
how you analyze new people?
How many things do you really
decide about them before they
speak? When you look at a per
son, you often decide their age,
sex, social and economic status
and occupation. You might even
decide if they are aggressive or
an introvprt.
After meeting the person some
of these first impressions from
their clothes may be changed,
nevertheless they were formed
in the beginning.
The right clothing can make
you become socially accepted or
it can be the tool for getting a
job. The right clothes also affect
us psychologically. If your clothes
seem right for the occasion,
you act as if you feel at ease.
The opposite is true, when you
feel you aren’t dressed as you
should be.
What do your clothes tell
others? You can make them say
what you want to say. Think of
yourself as an individual and the
role or roles you play. Then, plan
your clothing to suit your individ
uality and project the proper
image for each occasion.
It’s a Fact! ~
What we need now is not
optimism, but also hop-to-it-ism.

Roberta
BY STEVE BALL
On Monday night, January
12th, the Henderson Tigers play
ed the Roberta Bulldogs which
saw the Tigers victorious in both
games.
The Tigerettes won by a score
of 41-34. A great deal of credit
goes to guards Daisy Grier,
Gladys Freeman, Rosa Head and
Jean Hightower. These girls were
rough on the backboard and they
were also forcing Roberta into
making mistakes.
The coach was also pleased
with the play of forwards Aretha
Pye, Regenia Lawrence, and Pa
tricia Barlow. ( The girls record
now stands at 9 wins 4 losses,
the boys a 6-9-2 mark.
