' „j*Bj SUSIE AND MAUDE By Jerry McLaurin Maude makes her home on Oak Hill Drive in Jackson with Susie and Jack Little. The auburn colored Peking nese originated in Gatlin burg, Tennessee two and one-half years ago, but in spite of her ski resort origins, Maude can’t ski a lick. Six months after she was born, Maude and her family moved out of Gatlinburg and into Butts County. Maude accompanied everyone on the trip in the car and since then she has become a fanatic automobile passen ger. A jingle of the keys and a step or two in the direction of the car and Maude is ready to roll! When she’s not out on the road trying to hitch a joy ride or down the street visiting with Rhett, Bill Schroeder’s Brittany Spaniel, she spends her time in the Little house. At bedtime she can be found curled up beside Susie sound asleep. On those nights when Susie is away, Jack has to make room on his bed for Maude. At dinner Maude is more than accommodating. She’ll eat any sort of dog food or anything that comes from the table. But when it’s time for a real taste bud thriller, she prefers freshly popped pop corn and a glass or two of apricot brandy to wash the kernels down. Susie swears that the responsibility for the brandy lies with her father Jack, alone!

She’ll play with anything: balls, dirty socks, old shoes, sticks, hair curlers; if it’s not nailed down it gets played with. She also gets a big kick out of keeping Susie busy opening doors for her. The Little’s house is situated so that the front door faces the street and the back door is on the side; both doors open to the family room. When Susie is around and Maude is in the mood (if she’s breathing she’s in the mood), Maude goes to the front door and whines until Susie lets her out. Before Susie can return to her seat Maude is Scratching and whining at PERSONAL Mrs. A. C. Adams, 111 and A. C.

In the Middle East, Europe and Asia it spared one person and took three. As late as 1918 the great influenza epidemic killed 1,000,000 people in the U.S. and 10,000,000 to 20,000,000 others were killed in all parts of the world.

JACKSON, GA. $391 Per Capita Per Day To Run Government New York, Feb. 8 For residents of Butts County does the cost of local government run higher or lower than it does for people in other communities? How much is spent locally, per capita, for all municipal and county operations and for all special services? How large is the local debt compared with the average in other areas? A voluminous new report, just released by the Census Bureau, sheds light on these matters. It is based upon a detailed study of local finances, gathered from every county in the United States. The study, entitled Gov ernment Finances, is the first made since fiscal 1967. They are conducted every five years. For people living in Butts County, the figures show, the total cost of local govern mental operations came to $391 per capita in the year. In the rest of the nation the average was ssll per capita and, in the State of Georgia, $399.

The $106.5 billion outlay represented an increase of $47 billion in a period of five years. In some communities, the amount spent for local governmental operations was adequately covered by revenues. In many others, however, more was spent than was taken in.

T-V: THE STEPS OF LENT Between Ash Wednesday and Easter Sunday there are forty days? No, that’s not quite right. Between Ash Wednesday and Easter Sunday there are forty weekdays —and six Sundays. Traditionally the weekdays were the Lenten fast, the Sundays were festi vals of Christian worship. If your faith has taught you to observe Lent: by foregoing pleasures or adding new religious experiences or both. . . those Six Sundays are occasions for taking in ventory of your spiritual progress. If yours is a religious background that does not emphasize Lent, those Six Sundays are still milestones on the way to the great Christian celebration of Christ’s Resur rection—Easter! And if, perchance, you have never given much attention to spiritual matters, those Six Sundays (and the thoughtful days between) are an invitation from your Lord. . . to walk with Him the path He walked for You.
