On one of the streets of Boys Estate, Ga., there approached a donkey. But there
was something special about this particular specimen of the animal about which
so many jokes have been made. This donkey is affectionately called ‘ Josephine,
known and loved by every youthful citizen of Boys Estate as well as the hundreds
of visitors who have watched her pull the rubber-tired wagon used by the Sani
tation Department in handling and hauling leaves and trash that accumulates on
the streets of Boys Estate the same as in any other community.
While the Sanitation Department functions throughout the entire year special
emphasis is placed upon the annual Spring and Fail clean-up campaigns. These
campaigns are instituted by the young citizens themselves through their own gov
erning body — the Mayor and City Council, and represents one phase of self-re
liance and good citizenship which is so much a part of the training received at
Boys Estate to prepare them for the responsibilities to be met later in life.
Boys Estate is Georgia’s answer to the needs of her young sons who are victims
of unfortunate circumstances that make their futures so doubtful and assistance on
the parts of friends and people of good-will is needed to maintain and increase the
facilities to carry out such far reaching plans.
A campaign to assist Boys Estate will be conducted in Brantley County in Octo
ber, with Mrs. Banner Thomas of Hoboken as committee chairman. Mrs. Thomas
or any member of her committee will ba happy to afford full information regard
ing their efforts to assist this publicly-supported institution that is doing such
valiant work for the unfortunate youths of Georgia.
County district chairmen are Mrs. Talmadge Griner, Nahunta; Mrs. Letha Mae
White, Hickox; Mrs. Daisy Hunter, Waynesville and Atkinson; Mr. O. U. Davis,
Hoboken; and Mr. Ernest Thrift, Schlatterville.
It’s like owning an expensive car without
the expense. Check it over from its clean
thrusting prow to its rakish rear deck.
Then—head for the open highway. ■ That
sittin’-on-satin feeling you get is Chevrolet’s
famous Jet-smooth ride at work. The
standard six and V 8 are triggered to do
special things on regular gas, and for real
hair-trigger reflexes you have a choice of
four optional-at-extra-cost VB’s with out-

as standard equipment this year. This is
the kind of car that will make you feel
luxurious all over, and your Chevrolet
dealer will be only too happy to show you
how easy it is to have
one of your own.
