How I Grow
To be a healthy child you
need plenty of sleep, plenty of
exercise and food from the
seven groups. You need a
quart of milk a day. A good
dessert is fruit. You need green
vegetables and yellow vegeta
bles, too.
You also need about nine or
ten hours of sleep. You need
clothes to have room to move
around in. Let your clothing
match the weather.
For exercise you need sun
shine and fresh air. You also
need to run and jump and
play games as hide-and seek,
chase and other games. So
watch your health.
By Karen Meadors.
How I Grow
I get up early in the morn
ing. I eat a good breakfast of
cereal, bread and butter and
eggs. I drink fruit juice or
milk. These foods give me lots
of energy to do my work and
play.
I get plenty of exercise, sun
shine and fresh air and I also
try to get ten hours of sleep
each night.
I wear warm clothing when
the weather is cold to protect
my body.
By Mike Rooks.
How I Grow
Once upon a time there was
a little girl who liked to watch
television. She would stay up
late every night watching tel
evision. Her mother and dad
dy tried to get her to bed, but
she would not go. So every
morning she was fussy. That
little girl did not get enough
sleep and she was not grow
ing regularly. You need nine
or ten hours of sleep each
night to grow regularly.
By Linda Evans
How I Grow
First of all I need plenty of
sleep and rest to help my body
grow strong and healthy.
Second, I need to eat plen
ty of fruits and vegetables and
drink lots of milk to help my
teeth and bones.
Now I need to take plenty of
exercise daily to help my body ■
grow healthy and strong and ।
keep it clean to make it grow
healthy.
By Pam Bohannon
How I Grow
When I get up in the morn- |
Ing I get on my clothes. Next j
I eat bacon, eggs, toast and
drink milk.
At dinner I eat beans, bread
and other things. For dessert
I eat pie.
At supper I eat peas, corn
bread and meat which is good
for me. For dessert I eat cake
and ice cream.
At bed time I put on my
pajamas and go to sleep. I get
plenty of sleep. Every day, if
the weather is good, I play
outside and get fresh air.
By Lynn Rainey
How I Grow
Everyday while I am play
ing and every night while I
am sleeping I am growing.
Eating the right kinds of
food and drinking plenty of
milk also helps me grow big
and strong. It also helps build
my bones and teeth. Getting
plenty of sleep and rest also
helps me to grow.
We must protect our bodies

Miss Ross was born and
reared in Barrow County and
still makes her home at Stat

has received both bachelor of
science in home economics and
master of science in home eco
nomics degrees from the Uni

In 1956 Miss Ross was named
Woman of the Year in service
to Georgia homemakers by the
Progressive Farmer magazine
and she served as president of
the Georgia Home Economics

Her hobbies are sewing,

County Heart Council’s reha
bilitation stroke clinic which
was organized in the county
on July 28, 1960. 1
The speaker revealed that
155 patients reported to the 1
first clinic in July and that they
represented at least five coun
ties in this area of Georgia. He
expressed hope that other
nearby clinics would be orga
nized along the lines of the
Newton County clinic. Already (
many others in various parts
of Georgia have copied the ,
proceedures used here, he add- ,
ed.
Dr. Faulkner gave much of ,
the credit for the successful ।
operation of the clinic to the
nurses of the local hospital,
nurses aides, doctors and vari
ous groups and firms of the
county.
He said that the key to the
clinic has been “group parti- ■
cipation,” and that the pa
tients are giving hope and en
couraged to do many things
for themselves.
Guests at the meeting Thurs
day included: Mrs. Helen Dick
inson, Miss Peggy Jaynes, Mrs.
Harry Faulkner, Mrs. Claud
Jordan, all of Covington; R.
M. Crosby, of Athens; Lewis
Warren of the NCHS Key Club;
Max Austin and Benn ie

chairman, told the gathering.
“We promised the people of
this district during the 1960
drive that if our cause was sup
ported substantially we would
not hold another drive for two
years, and we intend to keep
that promise,” Mr. Snow con
tinued. He also pointed out
that the people in this area
would be much more willing
to support the 1962 drive,
scheduled in the Spring, if a
drive were not held this year.
The Newton - Rockdale Dis
trict had a very successful fund
drive in 1960. Director Patter
son said that $153,000 was rais
ed for the new Bert Adams
Camp project alone in this dis
trict.
Figures show that the Scout
ing program in the Newton -
Rockdale District is presently
reaching one out of five boys
of Scouting age. Patterson
said that the best work in the
district is being done with boys
of Exploring age.
“Exploring,” Patterson said,
“is our Scout program’s low
ebb in most districts, but not
so in Newton - Rockdale.” Pat
terson also was elated to see
that all of the district officers
were present at the Tuesday
taken at the meeting. Congress
may consider this recommenda
tion at the session now under
way.” Allgood concluded.
