You Don’t Know
There must be men to hold the lonely jobs,
like tending the lighthouse, looking out
for forest fires, keeping watch over the
cattle and patrolling electric power lines.
While most of our patrol work is done with
airplanes, there are places and times that
call for the man on foot. So he swings along,
a solitary figure set against the long miles.
His eyes are trained to see broken
insulators, burned conductors, slackened
guy-wires, timber near the lines, anything
that could interrupt your electric service.
Line patrol to us is more than a job.
It is a symbol of vigilance. It is a reminde
of our duty to fulfill your trust
by serving you well, S

The people of Pembroke are indeed fortunate to have Al and
Ivy Walsh, Gospel Singers to again visit our city for a series of
services at the Pembroke Baptist Church. The Baptist Revival
will start on Sunday May 1 and run through the following Sunday,
May Bth. Rev. Walter B. Feagins, one of the South’s great revival
preachers will again be here for the preaching. Both Rev. Feagin
and Walsh’s were here last year and arrangements were made at
that time for them to return again this year. Arrangements are
being made to make this years revival the biggest and best on
in the history of the Pembroke Baptist Church. There will be an
increased number of cottage prayer meetings for the week pre
ceding the revival, and many people are planning on having them
this year that have never had them before. And on Sunday, May
Ist, the first day of the revival will be celebrated as Homecoming
Day, and all former members, and the relatives and friends of ow
local people will be invited to come back home for a day of fellow
ship, worship and at the noon hour a genuine old fashioned
basket dinner will be spread, supplemented with some delicious
barbecue and every one invited to come up and eat and make them
elves at home. eYs, the Baptists have big plans for their revival
and you are invited to keep in touch with the Journal as we will
carry all the details about same.
Bryan to Serve as -
Assembly Area for
Savannah Evacuees
In case of a threatened atomic
attack on Savannah the people
would be moved out into assembly
areas which have been designated
as Bryan and Effingham counties
and outlying regions of Chatham
County. If no strike occurred they
would be moved back into Savan
nah without too much inconveni
ence.
This plan was outlined last week
in Savannah at a meeting of Sa
vannah and Chatham County civil
defense leaders along with repre
sentatives of many of the adjoin
ing 21 counties,
The next seven immediate coun
ties near Chatham would serve as
“panie stoppers” and dispersal or
ders would come from Savannah.
The State civil defense organiza
tion would give orders for evacua
ation into the 21-county region in
case the threatened attack is real
ized,
Those in attendance at the meet
ing, held in the Gold Room of the
Hotel DeSoto, were told that they
must ‘fully acquaint themselves
with the program and adequately
inform the general public. It was
an expressed theory that people
will do what they are told if prop
erly informed,
It was explained by Hoyle Yan
dle, civil defense director of south
east Georgia, that if the enemy
unleashes its destructive weapons
on U. 8., soil, thickly popu
lated areas will be hit first with
the intention of killing as many
people as possible and creating
chaos. The evacuation program is
designed to eliminate confusion in
clearing the area. Another theory
is that Savannah would have sgev
eral hours warning and can, under
proper adherence to the program,
move into the desgignated shelter
counties rapidiy.
Charles J, Musante, director of
the Savannah-Chatham Civil De
fense Council, ¢aid that it was
conceded that Savennch is among
the most difficult cities in the
nation to evacuaie, but with the
cooperation of ¢!l nearby counties
it could be done in orderly fashion.
