Newspaper Page TextOUTDOORS BY DEAN WOHLGEMUTH Georgia Game & Fish Commission A PUPPY FOR A BOY (AND HIS DADDY) Warren is eight years old Saturday. Now. there are a lot of things a boy of that age could ask for, for a birthday present. And believe me, being his daddy, I know all of them. His list meandered endlessly through race car tracks and baseball and football equip ment. and all sorts of related items. He already has a fish ing outfit and a BB gun, and he doesn’t know it yet, but when he’s old enough, there’s a 20 gauge single shot hidden a closet waiting for him. The thing he wanted most, however, was a pet. He wanted a dog, but a few weeks ago, he’d have settled for a kitten, when a neighbor offered him one. It sort of hurt .me to tell him no, but it didn’t seem wise to get a female kitten. And besides, ol’Dad was sort of holding out for the dog, think ing it would be a better pet for a boy in the first place, and I TOW TOTO" I I I nn /IW flfl mr. tobacco I I ^WrH|\F|^ grower I ^O*<WX\ g ”"'“ Yoor /// inw 'X * : Vzg\ Tobacco Dollar '-A O- a / J I K~ \ W y \v%' I I IT'S ~ i nter i° r D° or Units NEED THE SPACE?

You see, in the city, a poin ter or setter is a little difficult to keep. I needed a bird dog badly, but there didn’t seem much of away to get one, un less I could get a Brittany, which would not only be a good hunting dog, but a good net. With the limited oppor tunities of a city dweller to find bird hunting, it appeared likely that the dog would spend the majority of its time as a pet. But perhaps, the right dog could help the Old Man find a covey now and a gain. Well, the search began. Find ing Brittanies isn’t always ea sy, and price tags are high. At last, however, a young fellow was found in Athens, with a litter of eight-week-old regis tered Brittanies, and the price was right. He had one male and four females left. It was the male we were after. This writer, however, seems to have a soft spot for pretty females, four-legged or other wise. And there was this beau tiful female, that stole the hearts of the entire family, be fore the male got a good going over. She’s now residing at our house, as of last night, and there is a very happy eight year old boy. Also, there’s a happy five year old girl; a proud and happy mother, who made the purchase possible by approving the female, and th° transaction as a whole; and, we might as well add, a very pleased and proud daddy. Now. life will probably be quite different around the Wohlgemuth household with the new addition. In fact, the pup’s first night reminded me of the first night after bring ing a new baby home from the hospital. There were .many trips to the pup’s bed to try to quell its fears and whinings. It was a sleepy father that pull ed into work late this morn ing. It’s worth it all, just to hear the happy laughter and see the shiny faces of two youngsters. And by the time the boy is ready for his 20 gauge, the pup should —if dad is good enough at training—be ready to point his first covey rise. That’s the day ol’ Dad is liv ing for! Driver License Requirement In a recent statement re ceived from the Georgia State Patrol, classification has been made on requirements for re ceiving licenses to operate motor vehicles. Patrolman Robert Sports, Licenses Exam iner, stated that there is con fusion as to documents re quired for Learners Licenses and for Regulax - Licenses. Learner License may be is sued to those who are at least 15 years old. Documents re quired are a Birth Certificate or a photostatic copy. In the event a Birth Certificate is not available, any of the fol lowing two (2) items may be used, however at least one must show the date of birth conclusively. Social Security Card, Birth Registration, Hos pital Registration, Baptismal Record, Insurance Policy, School Reccords, Gun Toters Permit, Registration Cards, Credit Cards, Family Bible or other type papers that show name and date of birth. Fif teen year olds must be accom panied by a parent or legal guardian. Regular driver licenses may be obtained by those 16 years or older with the same docu ment requirement .as required for those 15 years old. Sports added that on an av erage, there are 20 licenses is sued every two weeks here in Brantley County. He stated that many people come in to the court house desiring li censes on the wrong days of the month and many do rot bring the required documents to obtain licenses. The Licen sing Section of the State Pa trol operates out of the County Sheriff’s office on the first and third Tuesdays of each month. The average American now uses over one ton of wood in the form of paper, lumber and other wood-based product? each year, repoorts the South ern Forest Institute. The grow ing of one ton of wood requir es consumption by trees of al most 1.5 tons of carbon diox ide from the air and results in the release of just over one ton of oxygen to the atmos phere.
