Mrs. Cowan and Mr. Paden
THE COVINGTON NEWS

Mr. Paden recited a brief re
sume of Mrs. Cowan’s career
at Livingston after which he pre
sented her with a piece of lug
gage.
Later Mr. Paul Alexander gave
a brief resume of the career
of Mr. Paden at Livingston
School and presented him with
a watch from the group.
Along with the gifts, both the
guests of honor were presented
plaques.
Mrs. Cowan’s plaque read:
Understanding youth and
adults,
Patience was your middle
name;
Organization in your class
room,
Nurtured minds enroute
to fame.
Yearning to impart new
truths,
Observing bright-eyed girls
and boys;
Untiring efforts you exerted,
Ready to serve with pep and
poise.
Reaching out an arm to lift
Eager to share another’s load;
Teaching skills you loved
and honored
Inspired real faith along our
road.
Retirement blessings you have
earned,
Enjoyment Is our wish we
make;
Meeting friends and touring
places,
Enthusiasm on the paths you
take....
Never will we fail to cher
ish
Treasured Golden Rule you
lived.
Mr. Paden’s plaque was in
scribed thus;
Loyal to the ideals and peo
ple he serves,
Invincible to the thoughtless
mob;
Vitality of purpose that never
swerves,
Interested only in the dally
job.
Not bowing before those who
are loud,
Going the extra mile for the
weak;
Standing always for right over
wrong
To accomplish the good we
seek.
Our love and respect he has
truly won
Never will be forgot the job
he has done.

program; however, additional eq
uipment will be needed.
Balls and bats for the soft
ball league will be needed at an
estimated cost of S9O; one ping
pong table is required - approx
imately S4O; three dozen ping
pong balls required - $4.00; and
also score books for softball
and basketball activities are
needed at a cost of $3.00. The
total estimated cost tor this ad
ditional equipment is $137.
The cost of the trophies men
tioned above will be approximat
ely $125.00.
Taking into consideration the
costs mentioned above, it is es
timated that approximately SI6OO
will be required from the city
and county in order to realize
our objectives.
It Is expected that between
250 and 300 children will be
reached through this program
with planned activities each day
from 2:00 p.m. until 9:00 p.m.
for a ten-week period.
In addition to above activit
ies, it should be noted a com
mittee is looking Into the pos
sibility of completing construc
tion of a swimming pool, which
was started several years ago
near R. L. Cousins School on
School Board property. The
committee Is attempting to de
termine where funds to com
plete this construction may be
obtained.
The Newton County Recreat
ion Council feels this is a very
worthwhile program and your
consideration and approval will
be greatly appreciated.
It took an act of Congress in
1912 to stop the manufacture of
matches with phosphorus that
caused "frightfuldiseases.’’ To
day’s matches are made of en
tirely harmless materials.

earth another of that Mother’s
sons, is something this world
will never forget. Two brothers
shot down! Two of the nations
finest, and before the grave is
hardly closed they are teasing
the younger brother, and last son
to follow in the footsteps of his
brothers. We trust he will not
do this, for somebody, some
where, wants these fine young
men of America out of the way!
They fear Americas strong lead
ership and progress. This Is
heart rending!
Think how many other nations
we send billions of dollars In
aid to, when right around us
we have little children who are
hungry...ragged, etc! They do
not have warm homes. We realize
full well the nation cannot supply
the demand for homes, and all
the needs of its people. People
must work to have ample food
and homes. However, we have
somehow believed In taking care
of “the least of these” at home,
before going abroad. We have
enough to take care of them, and
help with other nations..."lF”
our people, and the ones over
seas, were ambitious enough to
work for more than just enough
food to thwart the pains of hun
ger.
Chattering along...we go back
to that Mother and Father of
Robert Kennedy. We trust their
last son, knowing the other two
brothers were killed In cold blood
because they wanted them out of
the way, we do pray these par
ents in their heartbroken anguish
will not have to see Edward
Kennedy bounce In, thinking he Is
bound to carry on for his bro
thers. Mother and Father In
every home, who brought us Into
this world, cared for, educated
and guided us, need considera
tion now and ever more!
We have started with the letter
A of our Alphabet again, and had
our first “A” tropical storm...we
do trust “B” is not on it’s way
to sting us before we get some
let-up from the destruction “A”
has caused everywhere. WHAT?
You did not know that all the
spring gardens were practically
ruined by winds around Newton
County? Rain, Rain please go
away! Oh not for too 10ng...
just long enough! Most of us
like “Singing in the Rain”...
but not for a regular diet!
Brother! Our City is begin
ning to look like a city with all
its streets beine- widened, thanks
