Reverend Tate is a familiar

4-H Center at Eatonton. On
four different occasions Rever
end Tate has delighted thousands
of 4-H Club members from all
over Georgia with his wit, hu
mor, and personality. Most of
these young people will remem
ber him as the very talented
song leader who was asked back
four different years to take
charge of the singing at the State
4-H Council meetings. Some of
the spiritual songs which he in
troduced at these meetings are
now sung by 4-H’ers wherever
they meet.
The Reverend Sidney S. Tate
was born in Athens, Georgia while
his father, Dr. John B. Tate
was Director of Wesley Founda
tion at the University of Geor
gia. As a son of a Methodist

College Park, Marietta, and La-
Grange.
A graduate of LaGrange High
School, Mr. Tate attended
Emory-at-Oxford College; and in
1957 received his A. B. degree
from Emory University. In 1960
he received his B. D. Degree
from Drew University Theologi
cal School.
During college and seminary,

Citizenship Panel
The monthly meeting of the
Newton Future Homemakers of
America was called to order by
President Connie Coleman on
February 28. Pam Bohannon,
a member of the FHA, gave an
inspirational devotional. After
the usual business was complet
ed, President Connie Coleman
turned the program over to Sue
McElreaththe Vice-President of
the club.
The program, which proved to
be very rewarding, consisted of
a panel. The members of the
panel were Mrs. Huey Moore,
representing the police force;
Mrs. Ronald Cook, representing
teachers; and Chief Rodney
Floyd, representing the fire de
partment. The panel answered
questions on “Good Citizenship.”
Sherry Thompson and Gail Wil
liams, Recreational Chairman,
led the FHA members on sing
ing some popular songs.
The FHA made and served re
freshments for the Newton Coun
ty Teacher’s Association on Feb
ruary 13. A Valentine theme
was carried out using strawberry
punch and assorted cookies.
Another project was to help with
refreshments for the teacher’s
in-service day on March 2. Cook
ies and punch were served to
this group.
in Winder, Columbus, and Roselle
Park, New Jersey.
In June, 1960, Mr. Tate was
appointed as Associate Pastor of
the First Methodist Church in
Athens. After two years, he
became the Pastor of the
McEachern Memorial Methodist
Church near Marietta. In Nov
ember, 1965, he was appointed
to the aforementioned position
as a Methodist Campus Minister
at the University of Georgia.
In 1954 Mr. Tate was licensed
to preach, and in 1958 ordained
Deacon and admitted into the
North Georgia Conference on
trial. Two years later he was
ordained Elder and admitted into
full connection.
He is married to the former
Enid Smith, a graduate of Drew
University College of Liberal
Arts. Mrs. Tate is a native of
Vermont and the daughter of a
Methodist minister. The Tates
have two boys, Philip Andrew and
Paul Allen. Rev. Tate’s father,
Dr. John B. Tate, is well known
to local people as the Pastor
of Allen Memorial Methodist
Church in Oxford.
“The Parent-Youth Council is
fortunate to have Rev. Tate take
time from his busy schedule to
speak at our Banquet,” Presi
dent Hargrove said. "It affords
a rare opportunity for Newton
County young people and adults
to come and hear a message
from this personable young man;
and to meet and talk with him.”

Hospital Again
Receives Fine
Accreditation
Newton County Hospital offi
cials have been notified by the
Joipt Commission that on the
basis of their February 6, 1968
inspection of local hospital facil
ities accreditation of Newton
County Hospital has been extend
ed for three additional years.
The Joint Commission of the
American Hospital Association
and American Medical Associa
tion serves as the official ac
crediting agency for American
Hospitals. Periodically it con
ducts exhaustive surveys of hos
pitals including their staff and
governing bodies. Patient care,
medical records, nursing ser
vice, and food service are all
reviewed in detail. Depending
on the findings of the inspect
ion team, the Board of Commis
sioners of the Joint Commission
may recommend accreditation of
a hospital for periods of one
to three years.
The Newton County Hospital
was inspected in 1965 and re
ceived accreditation for three
years. Dr. Robert Faulkner,
Chief of the Newton County Hos
pital Medical and Dental Staff,
reports that on the basis of the
recently completed 1968 inspect
ion the Joint Commission has
extended their official accredi
tation of the local hospital for
the maximum allowable period
of three additional years.
Dr. John D. Porterfield, M.D.,
Director of the Joint Commis
sion, has written local hospital
officials stating "The Commis
sion wishes to commend you for
maintaining standards deserving
of accreditation and for your con
stant effort to improve the qual
ity of patient care”. The Hos
pital Authority and Staff are grat
ified by this official recognition
of the quality of their work.

had them early in the month ...
However, we will work diligently
for the maimed and crippled
young and old that they may
enjoy God’s blessings here on
earth. Many new serums have
been discovered to cure, or pre

just about anything now ... we
read somewhere about the one
person who made a serum to
prevent sin. Only one person
we were told, has ever used it
according to the Creator’s plan,
or directions . . . have you
guessed what that serum was
and who used it effectively? It
was, the serum, that is, was
the WORD OF GOD, and the
person who used it effectively
was our Lord and Saviour. If
we memorize the word of God,
that is good, but not as effect

that we, without thinking just
LIVE AS GOD WOULD HAVE
US. Now, according to His words,
He would have us going about

who are hungry. This month

ommendation of the September
1967 Grand Jury relative to the
County securing land for a gar

reports that efforts have been
made to secure a suitable place
but so far have been unsuccess
ful. However, continued efforts
will be made to do this.
We recommend that a referen

Election to legalize the sale of
liquor through County owned and
operated package stores.
Since the new state law re
quires that a voter be required
to register to vote in the mil
itia district in which he resides-
We recommend that the County
Commissioner supply necessary
funds to the Board of Registrars
In order that they may revise
voter’s list according to mili

the necessity for proper regis
tration and further, that names
of deceased and noh-residents be
purged.
We find that a Juvenile Court
has been established with James

We recommend that the pay for
