The Band Boosters Club is
going all out to raise funds to
defray expenses of the Blue
Ramblers to Mason City, lowa,
where they have been chosen
to represent Georgia in the
•‘Music Man Marching Band
Contest” in June. Currently
plans are underway for a
Doughnut Sale, which will be
launched March 8, and will
continue through an eight week
period. So, this is definitely
one time we may ‘‘have our
cake and eat it too”; and at
the same time contribute to
ward expressing our apprecia
tion to the Band and Director
Basil Rigney, for the distinc
tion they have brought Newton
County in being chosen to rep
resent cur state in the contest.
Let’s not forget that next
week, March 3-10, will be ob
served as National 4-H-Club
Week; and pause to pay tribute
to this splendid group of rural
young people and their lead
ers. Agriculture is termed the
strength of our nation, and
certainly tomorrow’s citizens
will be the girders which as
sure its progress and develop

it takes the most logical re- I
straint of the farmer in us to
keep from coming down with i
a severe attack of “gardening”;
but a long look at last March
makes us wary, and a little
more content to bide our time,
and content ourselves with the
less soul-satisfying task of
just—“SWEEPIN’UP”

Division of the Department of
Veterans Service in 1949, a po
sition he held until his promo- i
tion to the position of Assis
tant Director of that Depart- '
ment in 1951.
He was appointed Director i
of that Department in June of i
1954 by U. S. Senator Herman
Talmadge, then Governor of our '
State.
Recently elected to another
four-year term in office, Whee
ler is held in high esteem, both
Regionally and Nationally, for
his devotion, ability, and per
severance in administering the
duties of his office. On t h e
National scene he is regarded
as one of our country's out
standing champions of veterans
rights and benefits, and held
many of the nation's highest
offices in veterans affairs and
has been called upon to testify
before various U. S. Congres
sional Committees concern
ed with veterans legislation.
On the local level, due to his
ability and leadership of his
Department, hundreds of thou
sands of Georgia veterans,
their dependents and/or sur
vivors have acquired the
rights and benefits accorded
them by law. Without Wheeler
and his outstanding work a
great percentage of them would
be in dire circumstances at this
very moment.
