FAMILY RECORDS *'
Homemaking is no longer
the simple operation it once
was. Many of your family’s
transactions require such
records as proof of ownership,
location of property, financial
status and guarantees still in
effect. Even proof of citizen
ship, identity and age are
important at times. This in
formation, along with what
records to keep and where to
keep them, is available at no
cost in “Home and Family
Records.” For a copy of this
pamphlet, contact your county
Extension office.
They could have danced
all night.
For just two cents.
Electricity’s a bargain for most any kind of evening.
Two cents’ worth keeps the stereo playing favorite
tunes 10 hours. Or runs a color TV five hours. A
radio 14. A slide projector two.
In fact, the average price per residential kilowatt
hour is less than it was even 30 years ago. In time,
however, inflation gets to all dollars. Even the power
ful dollar you spend for electricity. But when you
measure the value you get against the price you pay,
electricity will still be a bargain.
So whether you’re entertaining, or just enjoying
an evening a deux, let electricity help.

Imprisonment May
Curtail Some VA
Benefits To Vets
Atlanta — According to
Georgia Veterans Service Di
rector Pete Wheeler, his de
partment receives frequent in
quiries regarding a veteran’s
eligibility to receive VA bene
fits in the event the veteran is
sent to prison.
“The type of benefit that a
veteran is receiving determines
his eligibility. For example,”
said Wheeler, “if he is receiving
a disability pension, his pay
ments will be discontinued
after he has been confined
for 60 days in a federal,
state or local penal institution
on felony or misdemeanor
charges.” Wheeler added that
“even though the veteran him
self may no longer be en
titled to receive pension pay
ments, the Veterans Admini
stration provides for payments
to be made to the veteran’s
wife and minor children.”
A veteran’s compensation
payments are not automati
cally terminated due to the
fact that he is imprisoned.
Wheeler explained that many
veterans have a service
connected disability which is
rated 10 per cent or 20 per
cent disabling, but are re
ceiving a disability pension as
the greater benefit. In the
event such a veteran is sent to
prison, the VA may restore
him to the compensation rolls
after 60 days of confinement.
If the veteran has a depend
ent wife or minor children, the
VA may advise them of their
possible entitlement to bene
fits during the time the vet
eran is incarcerated. Should
the veteran desire to have his
compensation restored, then a
determination must be made
as to whether his service
connected disability is such
that compensation can be
paid.
“In cases involving mili
tary retirees,” Wheeler added,
“the law presently provides
that persons retired from the
military may continue to re
ceive their retirement pay
ments while confined in
prison.
“An exception to this rule,
of course,” said Wheeler,
“would be in the case of a per
son convicted of a particularly
serious crime such as treason.”
More information may be
obtained from any office of
the Georgia Department of
Veterans Service.
REV. JOHNS
ATTENDS
MINISTERS
RETREAT
Pastor Larry D. Johns and his
wife, Faye, of the Church of
God of Prophecy Sloan Hill,
have been invited by the State
Office of his Church to attend
a "Minister'sßetreat" Novem
ber 15-19, at the Indian Sp-
rings State Park.
State Supervisor, Bishop A. J.
Creel in Macon said, "Often
pastors spend their time hold
ing retreats and conferences
for others without taking time
forthemselves. We at the St
ate Office feel your local
pastor in Hortense has been
such a blessing to others, that
we would like him and his
wonderful wife to be with us
in our retreat."
"Itwon't be all relaxation."
said Pastor Larry Johns. "The
Church is constantly seeking
better ways to improve the
minister's effectiveness on the
local level. I have already
been informed that those at
tending the Retreat will be
involved in several training
and discussion sessions. The
wife and I are looking forward
to this ipportunity to learn
how we can be of more assis-
tance to the Hortense people."

VENISON SOUP STOCK
Deer meat produces a tasty
soup. Extension home
economists at the University of
Georgia tell how it is done: Put
bones left from dressing the
deer in a large kettle. Add
water to cover. Simmer for two
hours. Cover and cool
overnight in the refrigerator to
harden the fat; then remove all
fat. Pick any meat from the
bones and return it to the
jellied soup stock. Package for
freezer storage. One cup of
stock, plus two cups of water,
makes a good base for noodle
or vegetable soup.

THE
FOLKSTON, NAHUNTA AND HOBOKEN, GEORGIA
Three attempts have been made to con
trol the problem of drug abuse, law en
forcement, rehabilitation, and education.
Many law enforcement officials will take
payoff from the syndicate therefore this
method of control is not as effective as it
could be. Rehabilitation fails because once
the individual is "dryed out" and released
he returns to the same enviornment that
got him in trouble. Education along with
responsible action is the only way that we,
as individuals, can fight the problem. In
short, become informed and when the o
ccasion arises do something. One may
possess all the knowledge that is needed
but if this knowledge is never applied that
person will ultimately become one of the
most informed residents in the local cem
etery. His chance to have contributed to
the caise will forever have passed. The
next time you witness a law being violated
or have jury duty try thinking for a change,
find out the facts, and then take responsible
action. Remember one thing, the syndicate
does not care who buys its drugs. All they
want is money and if your child or loved
one happens to get addicted in the process
or his mentality is partically or complete
destroyed that is tough or the way the
cookie crumbles. The syncidate will not
turn one hand or spend one dime for his
welfare. All they want out of the deal is
money with which to satisfy their own pl
easure principles. By the way, the real
money men in the syndicate, those who
make the most money out of the action,
would not touch heroin with a ten foot pole
as they have better sense or more know
ledge of the situation. If you want to spend
your life in a living hell of misery that is
your priviledge, the decision is yours. If
you were in the vicinity of Grand Canyon
and some one blindfolded you and carried
you on a short walk and told you to jump.
What would you do? By living in this day
and time you are standing at the canyon of
drug abuse; You may jump or not jump.
The decision is yours.
