kind you had at home . . . what
a disappointment when it comes
. . . There is something very
sacred to us about the Cope
home and the dogs, the geese,
and the chickens ... he loves
his pets as we love ours . . . and
boy, he’s going to ge me back on
a farm yet! The only time we
ever spent the night in the
country was when we were a
child . . . every summer the
Mother took us to spend at least
a month with her parents . . .
The first thing we’d 'do was to
run out and throw our arms
around the family horses and
love them ... we think they
knew us . . . even the geese
hissed a cordial welcome . • ■
then hog killing time around
Christmas, when we were there
. . . spare ribs . . . backbone
cooked uhth rice ... it never
will taste like that again! There
were the little lambs . . . and
old Bruce, the dog, who would
even carry notes to the neigh
bors, for there was no telephone
out there in those days ... we
slept in a huge room with tall
ceilings . . . spool bed and wal
nut chests that would make an
tinque dealers green with envy
. . . but there was one spooky
memory we have . . . Even as
a little child we could not go
to sleep at night we were so
happy at being there . . . but
even though we were cuddled
up close to Mother . . . the hugs
open fire place with great back
logs burning all through the
night threw out little flickering
lights on the ceiling ... it was
all so delightfully weird . . . but
then in the middle of the night
there would ALWAYS come a
sound that caused goose pimples
about the size of apples to
climb up and down my spine . . .
Ah, that Confederate Veteran
grandfather, and a dignified
Judge of the Court, who served
as a Captain in Lee's army lived
to the ripe old age of almost 96
. . and we never told him this
, perhaps we should not tell
you now . . . but ‘‘HE SNORED.”
Until this very day we have the
same creepy feeling when we
hear somebody snore! Yes,
siree! We want to live on a
farm and Channing Cope kin
dles the flame in our heart to
buy a farm. He has plain in
vited us out for the night with
those mattresses 18 inches deep
, . . How wonderful to tramp
over the woods all day hunting
wild flowers and noting the dif
ferent friendly birds . . . fish if
you wish . . . and then gather
around the friendly fireside . . .
crawl into that sweet fresh bed,
which of course goes into the
sun once each month . . . and
snuggle down . . . Did you ever
just stay there half the night
listening to the quietude of the
place? Oh, not half the night,
perhaps ... for after a while
the soft call of the whippoor
will to his mate and the chirp
ing of the crickets ... well, they
sorta lull you into a far away
dreamland . . . you float away
on the clouds dreaming you are
a millionaire ... and you buy
you a place just like the one
you are in . . . but at six o’clock
there’s the breakfast bell . . .
and you jump out of bed almost
believing you are in heaven . . .
there’s the odor of freshly
parched coffee . . . country fried
ham . . . and My, Oh Me . . .
those big fat biscuits with yel
low butter just from the spring
. . . thick yellow cream for your
coffee ... OH GOSH! Let me
wake up! I AM DREAMING
. . and I’ve talked myself right
into the hunger strike I'll go
on when I walk in to eat some
canned Tuna Fish salad I fixed
for lunch! So Mr. Cope, we
want you to know we not only
appreciate you as a friend and
neighbor . . . but your column
really has something in it to
inspire every single soul who is
lucky enough to receive it.
But here’s the Boss asking me
to get that dreamy look out of
my eyes and do a little honest ■
to goodness . . .

icemen and their families. Funds
are urgently needed at the pres
ent time to keep these functions
progressing smoothly.
The current drive has the sup
port of the highest officials of
the country, from the President,
through the Chiefs of Staff of
the Army and Navy, right on
down the list.
For example, here is a quote
from Admiral W. P. “Bull” Hal
sey concerning the work of the
Red Cross: “The American Red
Cross has done a magnificent
job during the war and your
continued support is essential to
the complete success of its un
finished mission. During the
time I served as Commander,
South Pacific Area and Force,
I had the opportunity to observe
personally the excellent work
that the Red Cross performed
in that area.”
General Omar Bradley, head
of the Veterans Administration,
says: “Even while it continues
its good work among our troops
still overseas, the American Red
Cross is being called upon to do
a bigger job at home during
this trying postwar period. As
a commander of fighting men, I
welcomed the Red Cross sign in
the field. Now as a friend of
those men and their comrades in
their search for the good life at
home, I am sure they will find
the Red Cross as ready to help
as it was during the hard days
of the war.”

“His daring aggressiveness and
valiant devotion to the fulfill
ment of a vastly important task
contributed materially to the sue*
cess achieved by our forces dur
ing this period of extensive
activity and were in keeping
with the highest traditions of the
United States Naval Service.”
In all, Lieut, Orr took part in
ten missions over the Ryukus
and the Japanese home islands
from March 18 to April 14, 1945.
He was credited with the des
truction of three bombers un

'Old Fashion’ Corn Pone
Wheat Bread Substitute
Housawive* who have for
gotten how to make old fash
ioned corn pone should dig
out grandmother's recipe, for
corn products are not on the
list of critical food items.
Corn bread, using as little
lard as possible, should be
used as a substitute for hot
biscuits or rolls.
Another method of saving
would be io discontinue the
steady flow of hot biscuits
from the kitchen and make
the family content with only
one serving. If any biscuits
are left over, they should be
toasted as a breakfast delicacy.

for colored, would greatly allev
iate the situation.
The possibility of a purchase
of one trailer for the housing of
active tuberculosis patients was
brought forward Monday after
noon at a meeting of the heads
of the Community Chest, Red
Cross, and county officials.
Funds were subscribed, but the
session was brought to an end
when the county commissioner
stated there were no funds avail
able at this time for this partic
ular phase of the health pro
gram.
Finances for an adequate
program of public health in
Newton County would be met
partially by state and federal
funds. It has also been sug
gested that a health program
involving Newton and surround
ing counties be set up as was
recently done in Thomas and
Grady counties. I
These two counties plan to
have a joint health commis
sioner, a public health supervis
ing nurse, five staff nurses for
Tho.aas County and four staff
nurses for Grady County. Prob
lems of environmental sanita
tion will be handled by a public
health engineer serving both
counties with one sanitarian in
each county.
A physician is now employed
by the county for the treatment
of those actually ill, but there is
no staff other than the county
nurse and clerk to provide and
teach preventive measures and
see that these are carried out.
The inadequacy of the pres
ent program was given the of
ficial spotlight last week when
the Newton County Grand Jury
recommended ‘that our county
officers cooperate with state and
federal agencies to bring to
Newton County a health unit
and hospital in line with other
counties which have modern
health units."

Georgia Will Have
Boys' Town For
Delinquent Youths
By SADA NELL WILLIAMS
Georgia is to have a Boys’
Town!
To be known as Boys’ Estate,
plans for such took shape when
the January session of the State
Legislature provided the land.
Sante Domingo State Park, near
Brunswick, was deeded for use
as a haven for Georgia’s home
less and delinquent boys who
want to make a success of life.
Construction will begin April
Ist.
Patterned somewhat after the
successful aims of Father Flan
again, whose Boys’ Town in
Nebraska has won wide acclaim
and recognition for its work
with youngsters in the Middle
West, Boys’ Estate will bear no
resemblance to a reformatory,
but will offer boys from the
ages of eight to 18 an oppor
tunity to earn their living, while
they build strong minds and
characters.
The objectives of Boys’ Estate
will be to provide a haven for
boys who are homeless and de
linquent and in need of proper
guidance and training; to aid
in the prevention of juvenile de
linquency; and to instill in
youths the desire to be morally
upright, vocationally efficient
and incorruptible American cit
izens. Boys who have been
paroled from juvenile courts or
who have been in trouble will
find a home without fences,
cells or guards at the Estate,
and no one will be made to re
main against his wishes.
Boys’ Estate will be incor
porated as a Georgia town, but
it will not operate as a charity
institution. Under its motto,
“A boy saved is a man made,”
the Estate will carry a program
of farming, dairying, and poul
try raising, along with its re
creation, education and religious
training. The project will be
one of self-government, with the
boys electing their own mayor
and other officials.
Sante Domingo, rich in his
torical background, was settled
by Spanish priests in the early
seventeenth century in Glynn
county. The remains of old mis.
sions, erected for converting In
dians of Catholic faith, still
stands in the midst of moss-cov
ered oaks, magnolias, dogwoods
and giant pines of early plan
tations. Now its 350 acres of
historical relics and memorials
will be tended and preserved by'
the boys who will live and work :
there.
ANNUAL HDC MEET
The annual Georgia Home
Demonstration Council meeting
is scheduled for June 10 to 15

are appointed delegates from
community clubs in the state,
will attend. The meeting will I
be held on the University of
Georgia campus.
PLAY EQUIPMENT
Demonstrations on play equip
ment for children have been
given to Franklin County farm
women. Mrs. Teresa G. Blair,
the county home agent, says the
demonstration club members
have made a play kit for the
children to play with at fCture
meetings.
