She explains, “I can use lighter colors and save my clients money on redecorating.” Mr. Bible continues, “With Gold Medallion apartments we can give people all the electric advantages: heating, cooling, cooking, lighting and water heating. Quick rental has proved that tenants appreciate the superiority of the total-electric concept. “In this section of Georgia, people look for the Gold Medallion. If they don’t see it, they ask for it.” The Gold Medallion: symbol of practicality and prestige. You’ll find it on the handsome i dwellings built by Jim Bible. — GEORGIA POWER COMPANY .

U.S. PAT. OFF.. ATLAS SUPPLY Ga All 159 Georgia Counties Now Have Forest Fire Protection Macon, Ga. — A long sought goal of obtaining statewide forest fire protection has been achieved, announced Ray Shirley, director, Georgia Forestry Commission. Organized forest fire protec tion was expanded to all 159 counties on July 1 with the signing of Quitman and Towns Counties. This brings to 24,- 066,400 State and private for est acres under organized State protection. Another 1,705,800 acres are under the protection of the U. S. Forest Service and defense agencies. There are 25,772,200 forest acres in Georgia. Shirley said that Quitman County came under protection in combination with the Stew art-Webster Unit. Towns County was combined with the Fanning-Union Unit. Shirley cited the 1967 Forest Fire Protection Act, signed by Governor Lester Maddox and put into effect July 1, as being instrumental in l signing the two counties. He pointed out that the Act standardizes fire protection for all counties and puts State support on the same basis for all counties. The Act enables all counties to receive State forest fire protection for four cents an acre of private ly-owned forest land. Shirley emphasized that a good forest protection pro gram is in the public interest, and is necessary to safeguard the many types of forest in vestments including the ex pansion and location of new forest industries. He stated that fire protection is the basis to all resource values includ ing timber production, water sheds, clean air, wildlife, re creation and esthetic values. Statewide forest fire protec tion is the key to this end, Shirley added. James C. Turner, Jr., chief, Forest Protection, states that the combining of the new counties brings the number of counties in combined units to 81. There are 38 combinations throughout the State. Quitman County’s 86,300 forest acres represent some 81 percent of the total land area. The combined Quitman-Stew art-Webster Unit has 421,200 forest acres. This is the third largest Unit in the State. The Clinch-Lanier Unit, with headquaters is located at Lumpkin. There are 39,500 forest acres in Towns County, accounting for approximately 87 percent of the land area. The Fanning- Towns-Union combination has 234,700 privately owned forest acres. The North Georgia combina tion is under H. F. Davenport. The Unit’s central headquar ters is located at Morganton. The Clinch-Lanier Unit (formerly the Clinch County TPO) was the first coming un der State protection in 1926. By the time the Georgia Fo restry Commission was for mulated in 1949, State protec tion has grown to 73 counties. With forestry taking an im portant role in the State’s eco nomy, the 1950’s saw the greatest expansion of forest fire protection and reforesta tion in Georgia for any one decade. There were 72 coun ties brought under protection during this period. “The 1960’s have been the achievement of our goal of providing statewide protection. At the same time, we have STANDARD aS2^C sought to increase protection and suppression efficiency through Unit combinations,” Shirley added. There were 23 combinations finalized during this period involving some 51 counties. Wanted by the FBI Alson Thomas Wahrlich Alias Thomas Jefferson Clark, 111 Wahrlich, one of the FBl’s “Ten Most Wanted Fugitives”, is wanted for unlawful inter state flight to avoid prosecu tion for the crime of kidnap ing.

WHEN TO WATER Don’t wait too long to wa ter the garden, advises Horti culturist Jim Barber of the Extension Service. Delaying irrigation while hoping for rain very often results in poor yields, he explains. “Most ve getable crops are fast growing and must maintain high qual ity as well as high yields.” "Where it's SAFE to SAVE on your G/assesf" Pearle Optical Quality Glasses from^y^-^ Including finest lenses, frames, case Convenient terms CONTACT LENSES, one price: $65.

The observance by nearly 3,000 Georgia Baptist churches will be held on July 16, the Village administrator, the Rev. Dr. Harvey Mitchell, re vealed. Goal for the special offer ing the churches will receive for the Village, homes for re tired people, is $175,000. The money will be used for the care of many of the resi dents at the Village and for the extension of the Village .ministry. Adding special appeal to the Village Day observance this year is the new building pro gram, the construction of an 84-bed infirmary. Ground was broken in April for the $900,000 infirmary and completion of the new facility is expected by this time next year, the administrator stated. Brochures about Baptist Village have been sent to church leaders for use in in forming nearly one million Baptists in Georgia about the Village ministry and the spe cial observance. Baptist Village, which is owned and operated by the Georgia Baptist Convention, has been described as “a place of beauty, love and care” and “‘a happy home for senior citizens.” Gainer E. Bryan, retired secretary of the Georgia Training Union Department, said Baptist Village is “one of the aging in our land.” A frequent visitor to the Village, Bryan stated, “Each time as I chat with the resi dents and observe their radi ant and appreciative attitude, ‘my cup runneth over.’ One is made to feel a bit closer to heaven itself.” Ralph M. Snow, of Athens, president of the Village board of trustees, said, “From the Village’s very beginning in its beautiful setting of pine and pecan trees everything has been planned and carried out with the ‘elderly’ in mind.” He added, “The residents themselves give ample testi mony to the wisdom and cour age of our Baptist leaders in the state for creating such facilities.” Appealing to Baptists to ONLY FEW WEEKS LEFT FOR UNENCODED CHECKS THE FEDERAL RESERVE BANKS HAVE SET SEPTEMBER 1, 1967 AS THE DEADLINE FOR UNENCODED CHECKS.
