signs for Jackson, and
involvment of the entire
county population in making
the county look its best,
especially for the Bicenten
nial Celebration in 1976.
Property owners, as during
the 1974 campaign, will be
urged to demolish unsightly
buildings which are beyond
repair and to keep vacant
lots free of brush and trash.
Outstanding projects will be
awarded certificates of com
mendation.
All citizens are requested,
as always, not to litter streets
and highways, and BCABC
will ask that municipalities
enforce anti-litter ordinan
ces.

POEMS
Poems written by Wanda
Godwin, Age 12, student at
Henderson Junior High
School.
LOVE
Love is something that
people should cherish.
Love is sharing with one
another. It is not right the
way people treat each other.
They should love each other
the way some other’s do.
Love is something special for
people to think about and
treat each other.
PEOPLE
People, I don’t understand.
Why they fuss and fight the
way they do. To me it seems
people should get along with
others because God created
us for each other. I’m so glad
God above gave us people to
love. We should love all
people because God above
gave them for me and you.

Along with the fascination
of microwave oven conve
nience comes the question of
their safety. What’s the risk
to radiation given off by
these ovens?
In a reprint from Con
sumer News, the Food and
Drug Administration (FDA)
which establishes safety
standards for microwave
ovens, answers this question
and others. The reprint also
includes information on the
purchase and safe use of
microwave ovens. A free
copy of Microwave Ovens
may be obtained by writing
to Consumer Information,
Pueblo, Colorado 81009.
FDA says that consumers
who have microwave ovens
should feel safe using them.
There have been no cases of
radiation injury related to
microwave ovens that were
used according to manufac
turer’s instruction. All ovens
found in stores today carry a
certification seal stating that
they comply with the Federal
radiation standard. How
ever, these standards don’t
cover ovens made before
October 6,1971. So, if you own
or use an older oven, take
these precautions: switch the
oven off before opening the
door; stay at least an arm’s
length away from the front of
the oven while it’s on; have
the oven tested for radiation
emission (call your regional
or district FDA office or your
appliance dealer to run the
test).
Maddox and Shane of
Hapeville, were their week
end guests.
Mrs. W. D. Ashley is on the
sick list this week. We wish
her a speedy recovery.
Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Clifton
had as their Sunday guests
Mr. and Mrs. Worth Clifton of
Macon, Mrs. Sarah Brown
and daughter Susan of
Macon, and Mr. and Mrs.
Jesse Robinson of Carrollton.
Mr. and Mrs. Dan Hoard
attended the fiftieth wedding
anniversary of Mr. and Mrs.
Robert Taylor on Sunday
afternoon.
Mrs. W. D. Ashley is on the
sick list this week. We wish
her a speedy recovery.
Your reporter and Mr.
Grier had dinner and spent
the evening Saturday in
Griffin with Mr. and Mrs.
Robert W. Grier, Jr.
For safe use of any brand
of microwave oven re
gardless of when it was
made:
Examine it for evidence of
shipping damage as soon as
you get the oven home.
Follow manufacturer’s in
struction manual for use and
care of the oven.
Clean door, seals, and
inside of the oven with water
and mild detergent. Grease
around the door seal can
cause excess radiation emis
sion. Do not clean with
scouring pads or other
abrasives.
Never insert objects
through door grill or around
door seal. Never allow even a
paper towel to stick out of the
door.
Never tamper with or
inactivate oven safety inter
locks.
Never operate an empty
oven.
