Sincerely,
After you consider all facts that you have heard
during this campaign, then think of all the rumors
and the mud • slinging and then last but not least, con
, sider your pocket book. Go to the polls next Tuesday
and vote the way your conscious tells you to.
TO THE VOTERS OF BRANTLEY COUNTY:
Through this means, I would like for the last time
to ask you for your vote and support in the Run. off
Election that is coming up next Tuesday. As I stated
before, I have no new promises to make in this elect
ion, I am still working on those made when I ran for
the first time 4 years ago. The only promise that I
do make is to work hard if you see fit to let me carry
on in Office as Chairman of the County Commission.
I have worked hard for the last 4 years and I will con
tinue to do so — every day except Sunday.
My opponent in this run - off election has been, and
still making sometime wild or ridiculous promises
that range from paving of roads and not paving of roads
to hiring certain people for county jobs. To my know
ledge, he has agreed to hire several as Road Foreman,
he has agreed to hire several as County Mechanic and
as Clerk for the Board of Commissioners.
I learned early in my first term in office that as
Chairman, I had a considerable amount of responsi
bility. However, I couldn’t take any official action
without a majority vote of the Board of Commissioners.
Ordinarily I would call this to the attention of my op
ponent but since he has been the Clerk to the Board
several years ago, he should know that for the Chair
man to act, it takes a majority of the Board members
to approve it. I feel a need to call to the attention of
those that he has made promises to they should be
wary of words, because at this time I feel that that’s
about all he is saying.
I will ask all of you that pay county taxes to con
sider these two things:
If my opponent wins the election and fulfills
only half of his promises, how much more
will your taxes be ?
For the last 4 years your county tax mill
levy has been 12.4 mills. What will they
be next year if my opponent wins and ful
fills all his promises?
George F. Stewart
Candidate for Chairman of County Commissioners
Sincerely,
Be someone
special.

I’ve seen so many items
recently about ways to save
household money. And who
doesn’t want to do that, these
days?
Some of the ideas, though,
are so far out they seem
hardly worth the time and
trouble. I just came across
one that suggests cutting
down on the cost of
soap-filled scouring pads by
cutting them in half with a
pair of scissors. It’s even
supposed to sharpen the
scissors. This must have been
dreamed up by a man who
never scoured a pot in his
life! For half a scouring pad,
if you were to manage to cut
it through, is just too small to
use. When you consider these
pads only cost a few cents
each, it’s a pretty difficult
way to save a penny.
An easier way to make a
scouring pad last longer is to
keep it covered with water in
a small container. That not
only seems to make the soap
go further but also helps to
keep the pad from rusting.
There’s even an easier way to
sharpen scissors — just cut
through a piece of fine or
medium sandpaper several
times!
Another simple way to save
money is to discover that
your all-purpose heavy duty
liquid cleaner, really is
all-purpose. In many
RAISING THE ROOF
Whether you’re in the mar
ket for a new primary home
for comfortable everyday
living, or a second home just
for leisure-time fun, raising
the right roof should be one
of your most important
> considerations.
Why? Because the /d'of'you
raise wilf not only be your
new home’s main defense
against the elements, it will
also have a lot to do with its
vulnerability to fire.
With that in mind, here are
some things you should know
about roofing materials, to
help you put a ceiling on pos
sible hazards:
Asphalt Shingles. The most
popular type of roofing, these
come in a wide variety of
colors and shapes and offer
years of good service. Con
ventional asphalt shingles are
made with an organic base,
are rated Class C by Under
writers’ Laboratories, and
provide only basic protection
against light fire exposure.
Wood Shingles and Shakes.
Though beautiful, cedar
shingles and shakes are not
fire-resistant, which is why
some cities no longer permit
them to be used unless they
are chemically treated.
S late and Tile Shingles.
Both slate and tile shingles
are good-looking and long
lasting. Their Class A fire
rating means protection
against severe fire exposure.
They weigh a lot, however,
and a home must be very
sturdy to bear their weight.
M. K. Cook, Extension
animal scientist, said the calves
will be penned according to
breed, weight, sex and grade
and will be sold in graded lots.
He added that only calves
grading Standard or above will
be sold. In addition, no cattle
over 12 months old or calves
under 300 pounds will be
accepted.
Cook said additional infor
mation about the sales may be
obtained by contacting the
Georgia Cattlemen’s Asso
ciation, P. 0. Box 4986,
Macon, Ga. 31208.
instances, it can perform as
well as specialized products
which tend to cost a good
deal more.
For example, 1/4 cup of
Lestoil to a gallon of water
makes a dandy ceramic tile
cleaner. The cost for cleaning
an entire bathroom? Less
than 6^l Just apply with a
damp mop, sponge or cloth.
No rinsing needed!
If the grout between the tiles
is especially grimy, apply a
little full-strength liquid
cleaner to the dingy areas.
Let it soak in for about 10
minutes. Then go over the
grout with a brush. Anything
from a scrubbing brush to a
discarded toothbrush will
work. Rinse with clear water.
The grout will look new!
A good all-purpose heavy
duty cleaner like Lestoil also
will shine up bathroom
faucets and the chrome trim
on refrigerators or stoves just
as well as a metal polish —
and without any danger of
scratching. Simply apply it
full-strength on a damp
sponge or cloth, then rinse
and wipe away.
Another economy when it
comes to tasks which require
a pailful of cleaning solution,
like washing the kitchen or
bathroom floors, is to try to
do them the same day. That
way, you can use the same
solution for all the floors.
There’s no rule which says
you must wash the kitchen
floor on Mondays and the
bathroom on Thursdays!
Liquid cleaners that come in
spray bottles tend to be
costly. But you can easily
re-use an empty spray bottle
by making your own refill.
1/8 cup of Lestoil to a pint
(16 ounces) of water works
beautifully. Total cost for the
re-fill: less than 3<!
Asbestos Cement Shingles.
These Class A shingles are
strong, durable and fire-resist
ant, cost less and weigh less
than slate or tile, but cost
more and weigh more than
fiber glass shingles.
Fiber Glass Shingles. Con
sidered by many to be the
n
best roofing material, fiber
glass shingles have all of the
attributes but none of the
drawbacks of slate, tile and
asbestos cement. For ex
ample, new Rampart Seal-O-
Matic® fiber glass shingles
from Johns-Manville are at
tractive, long-lasting and
tough while weighing and
costing relatively little. In
fact, they’re the lowest-priced
shingles you can buy with a
Class A fire-resistant rating
from Underwriters’
Laboratories.
How can you be sure a
roofer is qualified to raise the
roof of your choice? Ask him
to show you some of the jobs
he’s done, and talk to some
of his customers. If they’re
satisfied with his workman
ship and service, chances are
you will be, too.

. . . only YOU can prevent the
man-caused ones!

FATHERHOOD AROUND THE WORLD!
Called padre in Spanish,
pere in French, otets in
Russian and otosan in Japa
nese, Dad in different parts of
the world has roles that differ
even more than his many
names.
In the United States, a new
father struts around handing
out cigars. But among the
Ainus of Japan and in many
African and South American
tribes, the father takes to his
bed right after the baby is
born and stays there for
periods ranging from a few
days to a month! The
mother, in contrast, returns
to her housekeeping as soon
as possible.
Why? Because it’s believed
that the newborn child is
affected by whatever its
father does. If he worked,
hunted, chopped down trees
or rowed during the first days
of its life, the baby might be
dangerously weakened by all
that strenuous exercise! So
Dad follows the safest course
— and does nothing.
“Chasten thy son while
there is hope,” advises the
Bible, “and let not thy soul
spare for his crying.” But in
the Arapesh tribe of New
Guinea, one of Father’s big
gest jobs is to see that his off
spring never cry.
Among these gentle folk,
children are given almost any
thing they ask for, coddled
and cuddled well past baby
hood. Fathers as well as
mothers delight in feeding the

THANKS
FROM
L CARLTON LEE
Candidate for
County Commissioner
Post No. 3, Brantley County
A sincere Thank You to the 1158 citizens who voted
for me on August Bth. To all other citizens, I earnestly
solicit your consideration and vote for the run . off
election on August 29th.
I wish to thank my opponents for running a clean
race. I assure you that mine has been and will con*
tinue to be.
In the short time remaining I may not get to see all
of you personally but feel sure you will understand
if I do abt.
Sincerely,
L, Carlton Lee
youngsters by hand, slipping
them the choicest morsels of
food. The kids grow up, not
as spoiled brats, but as rep
licas of their mild parents.
Can you imagine fathers
not being allowed to play
with their youngsters? Ac
cording to information sup
plied by the Schenley com
pany, this situation prevails
among the stern Ossete tribes
men of the Russian Caucasus.
A man who fondles his chil
dren is branded as effemi
nate! Displays of affection
are for Mama. There is one
exception: when a toddler
reaches the age of four, poor
old Pop is permitted to take
the child by the hand when
walking!
Father’s Day, originated by
Mrs. John Dodd in Spokane
in 1910, is a uniquely Ameri
can institution, and so- are
many Father’s Day gifts. One
expectedly popular item is re
ported by Schenley, which
for the past few years has
noticed an upsurge of sales of
its liquors around Father’s
Day. Delighting Dads from
coast to coast is Dewar’s
“White Label” Scotch. As a
gift, it’s a sure way to pour
on affection.
But if you have trouble de
ciding on a Father’s Day gift,
be glad at least that you don’t
have the problem confronting
a Dinka son in Africa. The
young man of this primitive
tribe can give only one ac
ceptable gift: the skin of the
first lion the young man kills!
