BIG WEEK LAST WEEK FOR YE EDITOR— Starting on ,
Monday night Ye Editor and his wife had the Baptist
Preachers and Singer at Needmore Farm for supper, in ad
dition other guests present were Judge and Mrs. M. Price of
Ludowici; Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Cason, Mr. and Mrs. W. W.
Curl and two sons; Mrs. Ollie Miller and little daughter, Pat,
from Vidalia. The wife had really put on a feed and we en-,
joyed it as well as the fine company we had in our home. On
Thursday Mr. and Mrs. J. W. Brewton invited Ye Editor and
wife to eat with the preachers, etc., at his home at noon, and ,
we did, knowing that there we would find the finest food,
prepared in the best way that could be gotten. We had a de
lightful visit in the Brewton home. Then on Thursday night
we were invited by the E. B. Owen’s to eat supper with them ।
and the preachers at this home. We had been told that the ।
main dish would be fish and hush puppies, and knowing how I
delightful they could serve this ,we went and again enjoyed ,
ourselves immensely. Ye Editor’s waistline was more at the
end of the week than it was the first of the week. Yes, it
was great to be recognized by our friends and be invited to
join in with Brother Feagin and his wife. Brother Joyner
and his wife, and Al and Ivy to enjoy the hospitality of our
friends.

WILL BE AT MACEDONIA SUNDAY —Sunday, May 15th,
will be homecoming day at Macedonia Church in Bulloch
county. We have received a letter from the Thackston’s tell
ing us of the plans and giving Ye Editor and family a special
invitation to be there. We are going. It is always a pleasure
for us to go back “home" and worship wth our friends and
loved ones. For it was at Macedonia where our great grand
father, the late Rev. James R. Miller, organized the church
101 years ago, and where there is a large monument erected
to his memory in front of the church. In the cemetery ad
joining the church will be found many of our ancestors, and
it is always a great satisfaction to go back and go over the
ground where our father was raised as a barefoot boy, and
who loved every grain of sand in that entire section. Yes,
we will leave early and stay late. We appreciate that through
the years we have been able to retain friends who lov us and
whom we love in and around Macedonia Church in Bulloch
county. f

YE EDITOR WILL JOIN FRIENDS AT “CAMP WAT-
FORD—-This week end Ye Editor and his wife will go
to Contentment Bluff where we will share the magnificent
Coast Home of R. L. (Bob) Watford of Ludowici, who, by
the way, has been one of our best friends for many, many
years. Others in the party will be Mr. and Mrs. Thomas
Williams; Mr. and Mrs. D. E. Medders; Mr. and Mrs. W. W.
Curl and two sons and Rev. and Mrs. John R. Joyner and
little son Johnnie. We will go down Friday afternoon and
return home late Saturday afternoon. It is there that our
good friend, Bob Watford, has started one of the finest
movemments we know of, that of giving to the New Sun
bury Association of Baptist Churches a Recreation Place
on the Coast where our young people can go and enjoy a
few days or a week of vacation, with their Christian leaders
where they can learn and enjoy themselves at the same time.
Last Saturday a crew went down and joined others and built
a large barracks building for the use of those going there.
Other buildings will be built. Among them being a large
kitchen which the Pembroke and Lanier Churches asked the
privilege of building as a part in this great program. When
this s completed, and that won’t be long, because it is plan
ned to dedicate these grounds on Wednesday, June 22nd,
with a basket picnic lunch being served, and large crowds
from all the churches of the New Sunbury Association pres
ent, and with a sunset prayer meeting to climax the after
noon's festivities. Yes, it looks to us as one of the biggest
events in this section in a long time.

NOTHING LIKE “THOUGHTFUL” FRIENDS—During the
past few days we have been the recipient of some mighty
fine fish, from friends who have gone a-fishing and brought
home the proof that their trip was a successful one. First,
our good friend Aden Hattaway brought by some mighty
fine fish, then our neighbor and friend R. L. (Junior) Lane
gave us a large pan of shell crackers, a most delightful
fish, which we have enjoyed to the n’th degree. Yes, we
know that we have better friends than we are ntitld to.
But w do want them to know that we appreciate them and
love them more than they might suspect.

some news for you about some of
your favorite pickers and singers,

i to us, requesting your favorites ...
, WEBB PIERCE still holds the top
spot in your selections, and In that
connection, we read an Interesting
bit of info, on him in BUlboard. In
the four years WEBB has been re
cording for Decca, he has turned
out 18 numbers, and every one of
them has been up in the top ten
I tunes nationally . . . eight of them
1 reaching the No. 1 spot Pretty
good going ... Now it’s official. By
an Act of Congress recently, John
1 Phillip Sousa's stirring “Stars and
gtrlpee Forever" has been desig
nated as the official march of the
United States. It will be played on
the public appearances of high
' ranking officials, except the Presl
' dent, who still rates "Hail to the

business was up in Chicago re
cently for the Muslo Operators of
America convention. The nation's
Juke boxes are great users of the
music made by these stars and it

days . . . PEE WEE KING didn't

Some Polio Moy
Break Out Despite
Salk Vaccine
With one case of polio in Geor
gia reported among the approxi
mately 180,000 children who re
ceived Salk polio vaccine this year,
Dr. T. F. Sellers, director of the
Georgia Department of Public
Health, has announced to parents
that a few cases are to be ex
pected since the vaccine is effec
ti^fe in only eight out of ten cases.
Even if the vaccine were effec
tive in ten out of ten cases, he said,
it would not have time to protect
children who had already been in
fected with polio before receiving
the shots. The vaccine develops
protection within about ten to
fourteen days after the second in
jection.
The polio case was reported by
Dr. James A. Thrash, health com
missioner at Columbus. Kent Free
man, a six-year-old boy, developed
polio four days after receiving his
first polio shot April 19, and was
hospitalized.
Dr. Sellers urged all local health
departments and parents to con
tinue their polio inoculation pro
gram for the children of the state.
Vaccine was suplied by Eli Lilly
& Co., a drug firm which is sup
plying vaccine for the Health De
partment and the National Polio
Foundation program in all the
Southeastern states. Several othe- ।
er companies are supplying vac
cine for sale through private doc
tors.
I A few more cases may be ex
pected to develop in Georgia, Dr.
Sellers explained, as is usual in
any inoculation program. He out
lined the reasons.
1. The incubation period of
polio, or the period between infec
tion and symptoms, is normally
jlO to 14 days. This means that
several children may already have
been infected with polio at the
time they received the shots, and
the shots would come too late to
-'.protect them. In the case of the
i ! Columbus boy, it would appear
-' that infection had taken place be
s fore the shot was given.
2. With the vaccine only 80
- per cent effective, as was an
e nounced April 12 by the University
of Michigan, eight l out of ten chil
dren may expect full protection,
r This would leave two without ade
i. quate protection.
1 3. While one shot of the vac-
cine gives some protection, the
more than you’d pay for one of the
“low price three." In its class, it
actually costs less than cars up to 9
inches shorter. And its flair-fashioned
styling is stealing the "Oh's” from
cars costing a thousand dollars more.
The rush is on . . . with 17 magnifi
* cent new Dodge models to choose
from. So head for your Dodge dealer’s
.. . and take your pick!

three shots recommended by the
National Polio Foundation will be
necessary for best results. This
second shot comes two or three
weeks after the first, followed
seven months lated by the third.
Georgia had 16 cases this year
before the inoculation program be
gan, Dr. Sellers said.
