Stove Damage
The Jackson Volunteer Fire
Department received a call
Thursday morning about 7:25
o’clock to the residence of Mrs.
Evelyn Vaughn and Mrs. Tom
Clark at 681 Hillcrest Drive to
extinguish a stove fire.
A report on the fire disclosed
that Mrs. Clark was cooking
bacon and had gone to another
room. By the time she returned
to the kitchen the range had
caught fire. The hood on the
stove was burned and cabinets
charred with considerable
smoke damage to the kitchen.
There were no injuries but
estimates of damage were
thought to be considerable.

First Baptist
Youth To Fill
Yule Baskets
The Youth of the First Baptist
Church, in cooperation with the
Butts County Family and
Children Service, are working
to fill Christmas baskets of food
for needy families in Butts
County.
The youth will be collecting
food and loading baskets on two
Saturdays, December 9 and 16,
from 10:00a.m. to 2:00p.m. The
general public is asked to
donate to this cause with canned
goods and non-perishable items.
Each Saturday there will be a
work force of youth at the
church and on the courthouse
square. You may bring the
items either place, and if you
have no transportation please
call the church at 775-3102 or
775-3103, and our young people
will come to your door and pick
up the food.
After the baskets are filled (to
the brim we hope) we will be
given the names of many
families and deliver them
before Christmas day.
Your small donation of food
will certainly bring a large
response of joy to a family in
need. Won’t you please help?
