The correction of faulty body
mechanics is important in the
cure of arthritis, confirms J. G.
Kuhns, M. D., writing in a recent
issue of the Physiotherapy Re
view. HLs views show acceptance
of the Chiropractic principle:
“Chronic arthritis occurs less fre
quently in joints where normal
function Ls not disturbed. Normal
function in a point is dependent
mechanically upon the bones . . .
In faculty body mechanics, often
all these may be wrong. This is
seen particularly well in the spine
and lower extremities. When the
body Ls badly poised, weight is
often not well balanced over the
supporting structures. Muscular
pull and tension are altered from
the changed alignment of the
body.
How Much
Cost Your Business?
Some businessmen look upon ad
vertising as an expense. When
expenses must be cut, the ad-
vertising budget is first to
come under the knife.
The trouble with that method
is—it just won’t work.
The fact overlooked is that
newspaper advertising repre-
sents only a fractional part
of the cost of goods sold.
Advertising is the instrument
which brings the greatest returns
when it is intelligently planned.
Advertising becomes expensive
when you don’t use enough.
It’s like failing to lubricate
a piece of valuable machinery.
You save the cost of lubri-
cant, but eventually you have
to pay the big repair bill—
and production losses while the
machinery is idle.

Sandy Tally Wins
'Miss Pierce' Title
Homerville’s lovely Sandy Tally
was crowned “Miss Pierce Coun
ty” at the conclusion of the Pierce
County Talent Review in Black
shear Tuesday night.
The win came as no surprise
to the audience after having seen
the blonde beauty capture the top
talent award a few moments be
fore. It was the first time since
the two-part competition began
four years ago that a contestant
had captured both the talent and
beauty titles.
Miss Tally had won the beauty
title at the Blackshear Day act
ivities on August 7.
Five of the eligible contestants
competed in Tuesday’s contest.
To take the win Miss Tally dis
played twin talents. She did a
rendition of “Deep Purple’’ on the
piano and a baton-dance act.
First runner-up was Ann Tanner
of Alma who gave a dramatic
reading, “Tell Tale Heart” by Ed
gar Allen Poe.
Second runner-up was Kay
Middleton of Baxley who did a
comedy pantomine of the song
“Honey Bun” from the musical
“South Pacific”, and .a reading,
“If, For Girls”.
Blackshear’s Maxine Bryant
gave a reading entitled “Fool’s
Prayer”, and Diana Smith of Bax
ley gave her rendition of the
Charleston.
In the final tabulation, Miss
Tanner and Miss Middleton were
also first and second runners-up
for the county title.
Margaret Rose Rodgers of
Folkston, last year’s title holder
and Pierce county’s representative
in the “Miss Georgia” contest
this past May, crowned the new
“Miss Pierce County”. She was
assisted by Dr. H. S. Tally, Rotary
Club president, and Bill Lamkin,
Junior Chamber of Commerce
president.
R. W. (Bobby) Highsmith
served as master of ceremonies
during the evening.
Miss Tally will carry the coun
ty title to the “Miss Georgia” con
test next May where she will be
sponsored by the Jaycees who
hold the county franchise.
She is the daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. O. E. Tally of Homerville.

WHAT STARTED OUT last
January to be a spending session
of Congress has turned out to be
an economy session.
I It is now
certain that
when the final
total on appro
priations voted
for the 1960
fiscal year is
। added up, it
I will be well
I under the fig-
ure requested by President Eisen
hower and the Budget Bureau.
The House of Representatives cut
the 15 regular appropriations bills
$2.3 billion below the amounts
asked by the White House and it
is a foregone conclusion that when
Senate and conference action is
completed on all of them the sav
ings to the taxpayers should be
somewhere between $1 and $2
billion. Thus, prospects for a
balanced federal budget for the
year ending next June 30 would
appear to be good provided the
nation’s economy continues its
present upward trend.
» » »
THE ONLY AREA of federal
spending in which Congress is
voting any substantial increase
over the amount requested is that
of health. The completed appro
priation for the Departments of
Labor and Health, Education and
Welfare is $259.6 million above
the total for which the Chief Ex
ecutive asked. The major por
tion of that increase will go for
accelerated medical research, par
ticularly in the fields of cancer
and heart disease—a worthy pur
pose which undoubtedly will have
the approval of all thoughtful
citizens.
The greatest single cut will be
in the appropriation for foreign
(not prepared or printei
aid and sizeable reductions also
are being made in the amounts
earmarked to operate the Depart
ments of Agriculture, Treasury,
Post Office, State and Justice.
Even the budget of the Depart
ment of Defense has been trimmed
$35.6 million under the recom
mended figure. All of these re
ductions will be accomplished
without any curtailment in gov
ernment services.
» » »
CREDIT FOR THE attitude of
fiscal responsibility now prevail
ing in Congress must be given to
two forces: (1) the pleas for a
balanced budget and the vetoes
and threats of vetoes by Presi
dent Eisenhower and (2) the dili
gence of the taxpayers in making
their wishes known to their Sena
tors and Congressmen.
What has happened in Congress
this year is proof of the funda
mental fact of government in a
republic that whenever the masses
of the people become alerted and
enthusiastic about an issue they
can work their will through their
representatives on the national
level.
It likewise is true that when
the people are lackadaisical or
asleep any proposal which has any
element of good can be passed
through Congress without regard
to the ability of the taxpayers to
pav for it. A case in point is the
recent vote in the Senate to revive
the Civilian Conservation Corps
at a cost of S4OO million a year
despite the facts that the nation
is enjoying unprecedented pros
perity and our national budget
has been balanced only five times
in the last 30 years. ■
