Open House at Milledgeville State Hospital The citizens of this county are urged to participate in OPERA TION FRIENDSHIP, which is sponsored by the Georgia Asso ciation for Mental Health, by visiting the patients at Milledge ville State Hospital. Milledgeville State Hospital has set aside Thursday, May 5, and Friday, May 6, as OPEN HOUSE for visitors. If you have never visited a mental hospital you cannot know how much joy it brings rhe patients to have a relative, a friend, or even an interested stranger visit them. To know that they have not been forgot ten, to know that there are people who care, gives them the courage and strength to continue their battle for recovery. Your visit will enable you to observe what goes on in a mental hospital. You will meet members of the hospital staff and they will inform you of the new and hopeful developments in treat ment of mental illness, and of the new programs planned for the benefit of the patients. You will also learn of some of the needs of this mammoth hospital; and you will probably return home with new insight and new understanding, and a growing compassion for our fel low Georgians who must never again be neglected. Let’s all visit Milledgeville State Hospital on May 5 or May 6 and let the patients know that we “the folks back home’’ are truly interested in them and in their recovery. A good iron, if properly cared for, will last for 30 years to a lifetime, declares Miss Doris Oglesby, housing equipment specialist, Agricultural Extension Service. FIRST 4 ISSUES FREE! TH?
