Newspaper Page TextBrantley Enterprise, Nahunta, Ga., Thursday, March 13, 1958 Brantley Enterprise Published weekly on Thursday at Nahunta, Georgia CARL BROOME EDITOR and PUBLISHER Entered at the Post Office at Nahunta, Georgia as second class matter under the act of March 3, 1879. Official Organ of Brantley County LIGHT, MANEUVERABLE — Here is a view of the 33- inch Brady Tree Girdler in action. Weighing less than an ax, it can be carried in the hip pocket. Cull hardwoods like the one shown here. . . about 7 inches in diameter . . can be girdled in less than 20 seconds! Eight inches of double chain on each end of the cutting chain widens the kerf and prevents binding on the single cutting length. Special “bumpers” prevent digging-in action. The tool makes a clean kerf about one inch wide. The Brady Gird ler sells for less than $30.00. i^'fkQUCHT'l Mkt&day^ ! By Guy Chambless 1 “A CERTAIN AMOUNT OF CARE OR PAIN OR TROUBLE IS NECESSARY FOR EVERY MAN AT ALL TIMES. A SHIP WITHOUT BALLAST IS UNSTABLE AND WILL NOT GO STRAIGHT ...” It might seem that a life which knows nothing but the good and the enjoyable, one free of care and stress, is the life of per fection. That is, of course, a happy state to contemplate but, on close inspection, it doesn't appear to be the sort of existence which forges strength of character. It is somewhat paradoxical that certain admirable and quite necessary traits of character are byproducts of personal hard ship. Courage and perserverance are never quite so much in evidence as on those occasions when things go badly and we are forced to call upon our reserves for personal strengths which we seldom if ever would develop if life was a near-steady diet of milk and honey. CHAMBLESS FUNERAL HOME NAHUNTA, GEORGIA GAME and (Uh FISH‘D Efe, / . By FULTON LOVELL Director, Georgia Game and Fish Commission NO ALIBIS, PLEASE THE worst thing a fellow can do when he is apprehended for a game and fish law violation is to alibi. That’s the concensus of opinion of Georgia’s chief wildlife rangers Fulton Loveii Most law officers don’t like to listen to alibis.”^ ■■■ ■..: s . ■ “If a fellow’s caught’ redhanded, the best thing he chn do is pay his fine ; and forget it,” another chief remarked. “After aM. some times hunterp are .caught violating when they didn’t even know they were doing wrong. Jt’s no sin, not like murder. So, they should pay their fine without quibbling and remember not to do the same thing next time.” 4 , • “The- best thing an apprehended violator can do, says an other, “is not to be beligerant or nasty and should n^ver make cracks about the officer who apprehended him. He should stand up and take his own medicine.” “I hate to see a fellow who is never wrong,” said one. “Excuses may have their merits but not with me. If you break the law, you should be willing to xke the consequences. Otherwise, you shouldn’t be allowed to hunt.” The question was asked to get an opinion not from the person getting pinched but the ones doing the pinching. Good Duck Season Reported Reports are still coming in on the survey Ducks Unlimited makes annually of the success of duckhunters throughout the nation but early indications are that the past season is as good or better than any we’ve had in the past twenty years. As usual, the weather played an important role in hunter success. States that had intermittent freezes and thaws had some good duck shooting. Where warmer weather prevailed, it was almost a waste of time to go out but several Georgia hunters reported good bags despite generally warm weather during the season. , , Disney Wildlife Week Chairman Walt Disney, the producer of movies and a staunch conservation list, has been appointed chairman of National Wildlife Week, which will be held March 16-23. Theme for the week is “Let’s Protect Our Public Lands.” Gerald R. Hunter of Cordele is Georgia chairman. in answer to the question *what'should a game . off .fish law violator do when « ranger nabs him ?" “I am not the judge,” one chief explained, “bo I see no point in the fellow presenting his case tp me. Ldo think, though, that efery per- ‘ sop has fright to deny the charge if he so wishes. But I like.for them to deny it to the judge—not “If I were a hunter and a ranger caught me breaking the law I’d take off my shoes ->aud,m Wee blue blazes,” another said. ’Either ^hst or I’d keep my mouth closed.

Expansion Program Helps to Stabilize Georgia Milk Market A new bulk milk condensing plant is the latest project in a half million dollar expansion program to be completed by the Super Sue Ice Cream Company. The firm is one of the largest independent ice cream producers in the United States. It operates plants in Georgia and Florida with headquarters in Douglas, Georgia. The new condensing fa cility is in Eatonton, Ga., in the heart of the heavy milk growing section. It establishes a stable market for Grade A milk which is in excess of bottled milk re quirements. Such projects as undertaken by tthe ice cream company exert a healthy influence on the dairy ing economy throughout the state. The purchasing of dairy products by this concern exceed eight hundred thousand dollars annually. Agressive advertising and promotion of ice cream as a health food by the Super Sue People is continually expanding the milk market. Well over 100 Georgia and Flo rida newspapers, among which this paper is included, are to pub lish a series of advertisements in the ice cream company’s 1958 program which begins in March. Super Sue is a staunch believer in “home town” newspaper ad vertiseing, a view held and prac ticed since the company was es tablished 28 years ago. The cur rent campaign is the largest yet launched in behalf of over 4000 merchants who sell Super Sue ice cream in Georgia and sections of Florida.
