Several Specialized Courses Offered At Waycross Center The University Center at Way cross is offering a course in “Survey of Speech Problems” during the Winter Quarter parti cularly of interest to teachers and prospective teachers dealing with mentally retarded children. The winter quarter begins Jan uary 4. This course is recommended for all elementary teachers and is one of the required courses for a major in the field of teaching mentally retarded children. The lack of qualified teachers in the South Georgia area has hindered the employment of teachers in this much needed field. Several courses in specialized fields are being offered at the Waycross Center during the win ter quarter. These include “Lib rary Education” required of all school librarians; “Money and Banking” for Business Adminis tration majors; “Psychology of Adjustment” of particular inter est to nurses and welfare works, in addition to Psychology maj ors. Robert H. Hartley, director, Waycross Center, announces the registration date for the winter quarter as January 4, at the Vo cational Building on Mary Street in Waycross. HOW MANY CARS TO CHOOSE FROM? If you’re planning to buy a ’65 model, you have 343 models to choose from right now. Last year Detroit added 13 after the new models were out, ac cording to the annual roundup in the (December) issue of Changing Times, the Kiplinger magazine. Dahlias will often overwinter if left in the ground, but Horti culturist Gerald E. Smith of the Extension Service says it is much safer to store valuable varieties in a protected location. BRUNSWICK, GA. Questions and Answers from the Brantley County Department or Family And Children Services By Mrs. Leila Turner, Director Who are the estimated 6,000 children who spend time in com mon jails in Georgia each year and why are they placed in jail? Children are placed in city and county jails in Georgia for the simple reason that in most coun ties, there is no other place to keep them when they must be de tained. Some of the estimated 6,000 children are in detention because they have committed felony or misdemeanor violations of the law. Some are neglected, abused or deserted, and must be removed from their homes for that reason. Others are run-a-ways who are held until their parents call for them. They may be delinquent or simply neglected. The point is, there is no other place to keep them if they must be held regardless of why they are being held. What alternative for common jail is possible and why should an alternative be sought? An alternative should be sought for the reason that children young and impressive ages, re gardless of their offense or condi tion, should not be subjected to forced association with hardened criminals and adult law-breakers. Common jailing of youngsters tends to increase the likelihood of their becoming hardened and con fined criminals themselves and reduces the chance of their be ing helped to straighten out their own lives. The Department of Family and Children Services is requesting the necessary funds to construct and staff 6 Regional Detention Homes over the state so that no child in Georgia will be over 50 miles from one. This will do away with the ne cessity of placing them in jails and will place them under the supervision of trained child wel fare workers and psychiatrists who can help them. Won't this be an extremely ex pensive measure just to set up a separate jail for children? Yes. it will be expensive. No, it will not just set up a separate jail for children. These centers will cost about $200,000 each to construct but this should be con sidered as an investment since the centers will keep many a youngster from growing up to live his life and raise his family on welfare and in adult prison at much greater expense to the tax payer. The centers will also keep many youngsters out of the state’s train ing schools where it costs over $2500 per year to maintain one child. Keeping that same child in his own home and community under the supervision of a Child Welfare Worker or Juvenile Pro bation Officer will cost less than S3OO per year. In terms of dollars and cents, jailing children and keeping them nr state training schools are in finitely more expense to the tax payer than the Regional Deten tion and Treatment Centers could ever be.

THINNING TREES Regular thinnings are need ed in both pine and hardwood stands, advise Cooperative Ex tension Service foresters. When thinnings are delayed, the growth rate of the trees is slowed down. Dead or dying trees in the stand, a very dense interlocked crown cover, or stems very slender in propor tion to their height — all in dicate that a thinning is need ed. — JUDGING POTATOES What is a top quality potato, and how do you pick it out at the supermarket? Miss Nellie Boyd, head of the Extension Ser vice nutrition department, says top grade potatoes are firm, clean, and bright. They should be free of bruises and cuts. And potatoes of uniform shape and shallow eyes reduce waste.

Brantley Telephone Co., Inc. NAHUNTA, GEORGIA RIPE OLIVES ADD FLAVOR TO MENUS Canned ripe olives can add dis tinction to menus. In addition, they are among the foods which the U. S. Department of Agricul ture’s Marketing Service says are plentiful during December. USDA suggests using canned ripe olives to give eye and taste appeal to dishes such as soups, canapes, shrimp cocktails, salads, salad dressings, souffles, ome lets, sandwich spreads, breads, sauces, casseroles, and other combination dishes. One tasty way to use ripe olives is in a turkey-olive soup. USDA home economists suggest the following recipe for 9 cups of soup: Have ready 2 cups cooked and cubed turkey, Vs cup butter or margarine, 1 large pared and diced apple, 1 cup thinly sliced carrots, 1 cup chopped celery, y 2 cup chopped green pepper, ¥< cup instant minced onion, 1 tea spoon curry powder, % teaspoon cloves, % cup chopped parsley, 2 chicken bouillon cubes, 1% tea spoons salt, one 1 pound 12 ounce can tomatoes, 4 cups water, and 1% cups sliced canned ripe olives.
