For Christmas Overseas
It may be early to remind our readers that Christmas is only
three months away, but while there is plenty of time for holiday
shopping in this country, it is not too early to think about pre
paring Christmas packages for service men overseas.
The Army says that Christmas packages for overseas mili
tary personnel should be mailed between October 15 and Novem
ber 15. Consequently, those who have loved ones overseas should
begin now to plan tne holiday gift package that will mean sq
much when received away from home.

What Does School Offer
As the schools of Bryan County open and hundreds of pupils
resume their studies, it might not be amiss to offer words of ad
vice and encouragement to the young students.
We do not presume that anything can persuade many of the
pupils to believe that they enjoy a rare privilege and great op
portunity in connection with the resumption of their studies. It
is too much to expect young boys and girls to appreciate the
blessing that comes to them through the maintenance of public
school systems or to have any idea of conditions that exist in
other countries where free education is practically unknown.
We would suggest to boys and girls who are now in school
that they seek to develop themselves. If every pupil could only
realize the value of the training that they can get, if they will,
from the year’s course of study, we are sure that the teachers
would be surprised at the high marks they would make. Never
theless, high marks are not necessarily the objective and it is
often true that pupils making comparatively low marks manage
to get the most out of their studies.
In most of the modern k schools, the average pupil receives
training that is not to be found in the books they study. Th re
are many extra-curricular activities that engage the attention of
boys and girls alike and there is the great opportunity to mingle
freely with other young people and learn the art of getting along
with people. This will continue to help the individual after all the
facts and figures of his study course have been forgotten.
We hope the pupils of Bryan County will understand that
education is not the possession of information but rather the
ability to understand. This necessarily requires that the individual
seek after the facts, think out. their bearing upon everyday life
and to orient self tc a tremendous world and a much larger uni
verse. It also encompasses the establishment of a personal rela
tiouslv^ with the infinite goodness that manifests itself in so

Some young men know what they want and plan for it, Other* ar«
still looking for their niche. The new Regular Army can help both.
Perhaps you want to go to college but can’t afford it. If you
enlist in the Anny, you’ll get your chance. Honorably discharged
after a three-year enlistment, you are eligible for 48 months of edu
cation at any college, trade, or business school for which you can
qualify. The Government will pay your tuition, laboratory fees,
etc., up to SSOO per ordinary school year, plus $65 a month living
allowance—s9o a month if you have dependents.
If you haven’t found your spot, an Army' enlistment offers you
training in any of 200 trades and skills. You leave the service eligible
for further training at the best civilian schools.
You can assure yourself of the benefits of the GI Bill of
Bights if you enter the Army on or before October 5, 1946.
See your nearest Army Recruiting Station for details.

State Police Set
To Aid In Forest
Fire Prevention
Major W. E. Spence, state di
rector of Public Safety, an
nounced last week that both the
State Highway Patrol and the
Georgia Bureau of Investigation
would, henceforth, assist the
state department of forestry in
detecting and investigating the
cause of forest fire.
State Forester J. M .Tinker, in
developing the forest tire preven
tion campaign approved by the
eGorgia Forestry Development
Council, appealed to Major
Spence for cooperation in the
law enforcement phases of forest
are control and received imme
diate assurance of wholehearted
support by the state police
agencies.
In addition, through the Geor
gia Police Officers’ Association,
all county sheriffs and local po
lice are expected to assist in
tracking down fire setters in the
wods in reporting the existence
of nres.
“As we approach the point in
the history of the state,” Tinker
said, “where statewide forest
fire protection will become a
reality, we are making every ef
fort to tighten up on control. If
a law is enacted in January pro
viding statewide protection, we
will be in a position to take full
advantage of it in short order.”
A network, Tinker disclosed,
of communications is being de
veloped throughout the state
utilizing teletype, telephone and
telegraph facilities wherein for
est fire alarms can be directed
to state forestry headquarters
and to any district forester with
in the matter of minutes. The
public utilities are expected to
contribute the use of their com
munications facilities to supple
merit teletyp eand telephone cir
cuits of the Department of For
estry, the Southern Bell Tele
phone and Telegraph Company
and several independent tele
phone companies.
Keeping Youth
Out Os Prison
Topic At Meet
Keeping youth out of jail will
be one of the topics discussed at
the third annual Citizens Con
ference, sponsored by the Geor
gia Citizens Council, in Atlanta
October 14 and 15.
Other subjects will be various
types of community action to
stimulate junior citizenship, se
cure more adult leaders for youth
serving agencies, improve pre
school child training, prevent sex
delinquency, improve year round
recreation programs and better
human relations.
Delegates from ten southern
states will be present at the con
ference, Lon Sullivan, director
of the Council, has announced
Some 300 are expected from
Georgia communities.
Outstanding national speakers
include:
Dr. Howard McClusky, Uni
versity of Michigan, nationally
recognized authority on youth
and community organization
problems; Dr. Grace Sloan Ov
er to n, former instructor of
adolescent psychology and au
thor of several books on “Love
and Marriage,” "Orientation to
Life,” etc.; and Dr. Clyde Miller,
Columbia University, who will
talk on “Human Relations.”
Assistant U. S. Attorney Gen
eral Theron Caudle, head of the
criminal division of the U. S. De
partment of Justice, will repre
sent Attorney General Tom Clark
and tell of the “juvenile delin
quency” prevention work c o n
templated by that department.
Workshops at which profes
sional and non-professional lead
ers will exchange information
and discuss with the national
leaders ways to improve their
own programs will consume
much of the two-day period.
RECRUITING
Oklahoma City, Okla.—A few
minutes after Marine Sergeant
S. L. Baker became a “father”
recently, he signed up his new
son in the Marines. J. E. Good
win, 18, wanted to enlist but he
had no birth certificate, no pa
rents and no guardian. Baker
hustled him to the County
Judge, had himself appointed
the lad’s legal guardian and then
gave his consent for the boy to
enlist in the Marines.
