Dear Graduating Girls:
You girls graduating from high school and college have had your heads packed by
long winded, well meaning speakers in hot stuffy auditoriums about “Embarking on Life’s
Journey and all that pap. So we will spare you the philosophy lesson that is spewed about
so this time of year.
What we wanted your attention for a moment was this: Now that you will be out
earning your own bread on that first job you should put some thought into the money vou
will be putting into your clothes.
You will need to change overnight your idea that to be well-dressed your Jeans be
without holes in the seat. You will need to build a wardrobe that can be worn to work and
also look great on dates.
Find out the Dress Code where you will be working and stay within the limits. For'
some of you a Bra will be anew item to acquire but you can get used to it and you may even
like how it stops the droops. J
But, kidding aside, you will need to take another look at your buying habits and trv
new styles that you really haven’t needed before. y
While we are on the soapbox we will add one more thing: PLEASE BUY QUALITY!
Look at the fabric and workmanship. Mom won’t be ironing now so buy knits that you can
wash and wear. Buy clothes that will stand washing after washing. Brand name
merchandise is safer because a brand name that is a household word didn’t get to be
overnight. They will guarantee the quality and will back up advertising claims You will
pay more for quality but it will be worth the extra couple of dollars not to look faded out in
a couple of weeks.
So, now that we have had our say, we will get down off the soap box and give
someone else a chance. °
Just remember, as you travel down life’s road to the future, we wish you The Best of
Everything and if you ever get back to Little Ole Jackson, Stop By and See Us.

Day Care Center Is Work
Of The Entire Community
The realization of a Day
Care and Training Center for
the Mentally Retarded is due
to the combined generosity of
the Jackson Presbyterian
Church, who donated the use
of the “Manse”, 247 North
Mulberry Street, the Asso
ciation for Retarded Children
who assumed the responsibi
lity of repairs, and the VFW
Club for their donation of
labor by working long and
strenuous hours after a
regular day of work, the
Jaycee Chapter of the
Georgia Diagnostic Center
under the supervision of Mr.
Bob Zahradnik for the repair
of the back porch flooring
and Darrell Pippin’s Voca
tional Training Class for
screening the porch.
The Towaliga Homemak
ers Club, the VFW Auxiliary,
the American Legion Auxil
iary, the 4-H Fireballs and
the Van Deventer Founda
tion built an Auxiliary bank
account of funds for use in
meeting needs not specifical
ly designated by State funds.
The Van Deventer Founda
tion provided portable televi
sions for each room: Sherrell
Funeral Home contributed
additional steel chairs for
use. Noise was lessened in
three classrooms by carpet
donated by Cleveland Car
pets.
The music hour has
become doubly enjoyable by
the donation of a lovely piano
by Providence Congrega
tional Church which was
delivered and placed by the
County Commissioners.
Heaters were installed by the
City gas team. Collins
Cement Company met a very
pressing need by supplying
the cement block required to
meet sanitation require
ments. Many individuals
have shared in helping to
meet our pressing needs.
Just as the true meaning of
cooperation and united effort
made the physical needs
possible, the daily program
ming for training is enhanced
through the varying and
cooperative efforts of the
volunteer workers who add
zest and anticipation to the
daily planning of the staff.
Through the thoughtful
ness of the VFW Auxiliary,
Towaliga Homemakers Club,
and two Sunday School
groups from the First Baptist
Church, Christmas cheer,
Valentine greetings, Easter
joy and monthly birthday
anticipation have been abun
dantly shared with the
enrollees.
The greatest boost any
individual can make to the
entire program for the
developmentally disabled
would be to add to the
membership list of the Butts
County Association for Re
tarded Children by sending
your $5 individual fee or $7
family fee.
This program is indebted
to the National, State and
Local Chapters of the
Association for Retarded
