Miss Ramsey announced that

nual Christmas Tree Party of
the Bibb Manufacturing Com
pany in the Porter Gymnasium.
The Fifth Grades with a dem
onstration will present the pro
gram in January having as their
theme, “What the Library Of
fers Our Schools”. They will
also present the Inspirational.
Miss Ramsey introduced Miss
Clara Mae Hays, Visiting
Teacher of Newton County
Schools, who in turn introduc
ed the guest speaker, Miss
Marilyn Butler. Miss Butler, a
Cons ull an t for Exceptional
Children with the State De
partment of Education, brought
a most informative and
thought - provoking message.
Highlights of her remarks were:
There are 1,000,000 school age
children in the state of Geor
gia of which ten of fifteen per
i cent are exceptional. This
means that 100,000 need spe
cial help when only 11,000 are
being reached with the present
facilities and available teach
ers. This work with exception
al children was begun in 1951
with nineteen special teachers
and has grown to a present
total of 420 special classes.
Miss Butler explained that
teachers in this specialized
work are entirely state-sup
ported and she also told of
scholarships available for the
necessary training required for
a teacher of exceptional chil
dren. This work with excep
tional children seeks to enable
them along with all other chil
dren to live up to their maxi
mum ability. By having spe
cial classes, regular classroom
teachers are freed for other
needs, children are taught to
use their maximum potenti
alities, and the child are ena
bled to become acceptable to
all other children in their
school. Briefly, she itemized
“exceptional children” thus:
He or she may be blind, parti
ally seeing, deaf, hard of hear
ing, speech handicapped, cere
bral palsied, crippled, mental
ly retarted, socially and emo
tionally maladjusted, or gifted.
Dr. Mitchell expressed con
cern and appreciation for this
most helpful lecture.

we humble ourselves in gra
titude to the Giver of all good
and perfect gifts, the magni
tude of our undeserved bless
ings etches His boundless love
and mercy, like a glowing sym
bol, upon the dark background
of our imperfections and un
worthiness.
Among these multiple bless
ings, we often find the oppor
tunity of new friendships, as
newcomers arrive to make this
community their own.
This week we are happy to
present Mr. and Mrs. O. L.
McDow, who come to us from
Columbiana. Ala., and reside
at 112 S. Elizabeth St., as our
“Friendship opportunity".
Mrs. McDow, a native of
Durand, names homemaking as
her prime hobby; but also en
joys reading flower gardening
and outdoor recreation.
Mr. McDow, a native Ala
bamian, shares his wife’s hob
by of reading, and is a specta
tor sports fan. He is a member

CARD OF THANKS
We would like to take this
means of expressing our deep
and sincere appreciation to our

many deeds of kindness and
remembrances in every way
during my sickness.
May God bless each and
