Easter Seals And Easter Gifts
This is the time for us to open
our hearts and our purses... it is
a time for us to remember the
less fortunate than we.. those who
were born with some defect and
cannot walk. It is little children
we are bringing to your attent
ion. .. and grown-ups too! They
need braces. . they need wheel
chairs. . they need crutches. ..
but most of all they need the tend
er care and constant training that
cannot be had except within one of
the Easter Seal Centers where
skilled nurses hands work pat
iently with them from morning
until night that they might live
normal lives.
You want to be about the
Farther’s business.. well this is
your opportunity GIVE TO
EASTER SEALS IN NEWTON
COUNTY! The Treasurer of New
ton County Easter Seals Is Mr. C.
G. Henderson. .. open your heart
and purse real wide., and send
HIM a substantial amount.. what
you think you can spare to those
who cannot have this correction,
which will mean walking again..
without our help.
Letters have been sent out, and
we understand they said send a
“dollar or two.” If everybody in
the County would send that much,
then we might meet our quota
here.. but as one lady stated:
“They said send a dollar or two!
I want to send more.. would that
be alright?” Sure It will be and
Mr. Henderson is making a list
right now of the names of donors
and the amounts sent 1n... trying
to see if Newton Count is going to
meet her quota.
4 Named Scholarships At . Oxford College
Dean Bond Fleming announc
ed recently that there are now
four Named Scholarships at Ox
ford College of Emory Univer
sity. These Scholarships have
been established as memorials,
or as gifts to the College. The
funds are a part of the endow
ment of the University. The in
terest is used as a scholarship
for some student at Oxford.
The Allgood Scholarship Fund
represents a gift from William
I. Allgood of Oxford, Georgia.
This Fund, recently initiated, was
established for students of Emory
University, preferably those at
tending Oxford College. Mr. All
good, a native of Oxford, was
formerly a member of the fac
ulty at the College and later
News Editor of The Covington
News. There will be an All
good Scholar at Oxford College
during 1968-69. The scholarship
is established in recognition of
what the institution and com
munity means and has meant to
the Allgood family for at least
four generations.
The Edwin J. Brown Scholar
ship Fund was established as a
memorial to the late Professor
Edwin J. Brown, who was on the
teaching staff of Oxford for many
years. This Scholarship was
initiated by Mr. Phil Buchheit
of Spartanburg, South Carolina,
who sought thus to honor a man
who had befriended him. Other
students of the late Professor
Brown, colleagues, and friends,
have made contributions to this
Fund. There will be an Edwin
J. Brown Scholar at Oxford Col
lege during 1968-69.
The Godfrey Scholarship Fund
was initiated by the late Mrs.
P. W. (Caroline Hardee) God
frey. It was Mrs. Godrey’s
wish that royalties from her
book “God’s Christmas Trees”
be applied to this Fund. This
is being done. Many persons,
family, and friends, have made
contributions to this endowment.
The Named Scholarship Is in
memory of Mr. and Mrs. P. W.
Godfrey. A recent significant
Banking Series
Rev. and Mrs. Marlon Mobley
are co-authors of a two-part
series on banking in Japan. The
articles are appearing in
Banking, Journal of the American
Bankers Association, in the April
and May editions.
The Mobleys are Southern Bap
tist missionaries to Japan,
on leave of absence at present
and pastoring High Point Bap
tist Church.
This writing team has written
extensively for Baptist publica
tions such as Open Windows,
Adult Teacher, Adult Pupil, The
Builder, Church Administration,
Home Life, and others.
THE COVINGTON NEWS
gift from Mr. and Mrs. S. Charles
Candler of Madison, Georgia,
brought the Fund to the Named
Scholarship status. Mrs. Cand
ler is the daughter of the late
Mr. and Mrs. Godfrey. There
will be a Godfrey Scholar at
Oxford College during 1968-69.
The Thomas Chalmers Swann
111 Scholarship Fund, the oldest
of the Named Scholarships, was
established by Mrs. Frank M.
Miller of Covington, Georgia, in
memory of her late son who
attended Oxford College. A num
ber of Newton County youths have
been the proud recipients of this
Scholarship Award. There will
be another Swann Scholar at Ox
ford College during 1968-69.
Dean Fleming expressed the
hope that other scholarship funds
will continue to grow until they
become Named Scholarships. A
Named Scholarship must have a
minimum of $12,500. “It is
possible,” he said, “for Named
Scholarships to be established
In the Installment plan. This
Is one of the finest ways,” says
Dean Fleming, “of memorial
izing a person, because, at the
same time the Scholarship is as
sisting some youth to gain an
education.”
