upon within a few days to celebrate
Independence Day, July 4. We hope
that July 4 will be sanely celebrat

should we be careful in the hand
ling of fireworks and firearms. The
dread disease of tetanus, or lock
jaw, is an ever present danger to
those shooting fireworks. Then, the
Fourth is a holiday, and many acci
dents result from careless auto driv
ing and from drowning.

NO EXTRA SESSION NOW, SAYS
RIVERS
Governor Rivers asserted Monday
night lack of "evidence” that legis
lators were agreed upon a state ser
vice financing program left him
without justification for calling a
special session “at an expense of at
least 1250,000 to the taxpayers.”
He said he did not know when
there would be an extra session, but
added he felt the assembly should
do something before September to
finance the state’s serven-month
school term.
The Governor’s statement was is
sued at the executive mansion after
he conferred several hours with
House Speaker Roy Harris, of Au
gusta, and Lawson Patten, of Lake
land, former senator and member
of the State Board of Education.

COLORED PEOPLES 4-H CLUB
NEWS
Just A Thought
A few days ago I read a book,
“Rural Youth.” I wanted to find
out how my club boys and girls in
the rurals felt about farm life. I
asked, “How do you all like to
live on the farm?” The boys said,
“I like farm life, and would like it
better if had a chance to learn bet
ter farming.” The girls said, “All
they hated about living on a farm,
had to move so often, and leave
their flower yards and well pre
pared garden spots.” Landlords, I
ask is it because they are not worth
while tenants, or is it the need of
opportunity to better their con
ditions which causes them to move
so often? The youngster on the
farms may not tell us what he
thinks and feels, but he is thinking
just the same, and soon your share
cropers or renters will be left with
out help. Young people can stand'
only so much anxiety before they
give up hope and leave the farms
looking for a chance to better their
conditions. Give them a chance to
buy their farms, and encourage
them to “cast down their buckets
where they are.”
