Shopping foir Convenience
The iveiage American, wht >ther si lopping for a new washing

This is especially true of tl ie investor who buys mutual fund
heres The Investment Corr ipany Institute found in a recent
urvey that convenience was ; one cd the things investors liked
bent about mutual funds. E )i-*
versification —the spreading of
investment risk—and contir iu
oua professional managemt nt,
are features basic to the ft ind
medium, and were also rated
highly.
Managing an investment t in

necessary for the wise sale ction
and management of their own

business.
The survey found that one of
the conveniences shareb olders

Palmer-Stone Principal
Pays Tribute To Teachers
Thti week we are celobrating
American Education Week In all
communities across our nation.
Once a year at this time we pause
for a few days to recognize and
appreciate the splendid educa
tional opportunities our children
have, and each year we are proud
of the progress being made in
educational fields.
At Palmer Stone we feel that
many improvements have been
made the past year in '>oth the
school program and our physical
facilities. Our students are tak
ing advantage of the fin? TV
lessons being taught in science,
math, music and Georgia his
tory. Along with the other schools
in the county, we havein’.roducad
the new math program throughout
all grades. The addition of one
more teacher to our faculty has
meant that we eliminated the dis
advantages of a split grade.
We have added .many new ma
terials to our up-to-date science
lao, through the efforts of our
P.T.A. A large number of new
books has been added to our
library. Each classroom lias
been equipped with new cabinets
for books and materials. Our old
building is in the process of being
fitted with new windows through
out, and all ceilings are being
lowered and Insulated. Wo are
anticipating the beginning on the
construction of our new gymna
torium, which is badly needed
by our school children, and hope
this will be started in the very
near future.
Our teachers are availing
themselves of the helpful courses
being offered at this time. Many
are t>eneflttli« from Dr. Aaron’s
TV course in the "Teaching of
Reading*’; some are taking ad
vantage of the TV math series;
and several are looking forward
to the “Adventure in Listening
to Music” program which will
soon be offered on our local
radio. In our junior high classes,
science units are being worked
out in detail according to the
State Guide and Dr. Baker’s
course in “Teaching Elemen
tary Science”.
As principal of Palmer Stone
School, I want to take the op
portunity to pay tribute to my
teachers during American Ed
ucation Week. Each one has
set splendid goals for herself
and her students, and is con
stantly working toward reaching
those goals, and toward under
standing and fulfilling the needs
other students.
tt is with pleasure, also, that
I recognize publicly and with deep
appreciation, the splendid work
done lor the school by our P.T.A.
This orgyni ration works steadily
THE COVINGTON NEWS
toward better-equipped claw
room* and playground*, and stays
busy filling the many needs of the
children of our community.

EXPOSED SUNDECK
Southern Pine is an ideal wood
flor exposed sundecks because of
its high resistance to wear and
ease of treatment.
State sundecks are often used
dose to the ground in addition
to befog exposed directly to
w<eaiher, the lumber should be
pressure treated with chemical
preservatives which assure im
muaity to insect attack and severe
conditions of exposure.
Southern Pine is the easiest
species to treat because of the
greater depth and uniformity of
penetration which can be obtained
with the preservatives.
A-FRAME CHURCHES

Association, steeply vaulted A

700,000 Improved Slash and
Loblolly pine seedlings, Shirley
said. The supply of Improved

Slash and loblolly pine seed

Species and cost per thousand

Shirley emphasized that seed
ling order forms may be ob
tained from your local county
forest ranger. He added that
the county forest ranger is avail
able to answer questions con
cerning payment, ordering of
seedlings, reforestation need s
and availability of seedl Ings.
Local orders may be placed with
the Newton-Rockdale Forestry
Unit on the Covington-Conyers
highway.
A transportation charge of 25
cents per 1,000 trees is added
if delivery is by state truck.
Landowners will pick up truck
deliveries from the ranger’s
headquarters. If landowners de
sire, they may pick up their
orders at the designated nursery.
Landowners will be sent a ship
ment notice at least one week
prior to shipment, Shirley said.
Shirley urges landowners to
place their seedling orders now.
He pointed out that with the early
fall rains we should have an
excellent planting season. Put
your idle acres to work.

states produce some of the finest

Americans today enjoy a higher standard of eating for a smaller
