Hall’s Florist in Savannah. Dur
ing the demonstration many sighs
^nd ahs were heard as Mrs. Hall
produced a truly beautiful series
of holiday decorations.
Each arrangement for Christ
mas should tell a story whether
it be a wreath or a mantel ar
rangement. “And,” stated Mrs.
Hall, "there should be an arrange
ment for every room in the house
including the nursery.” A great
variety of materials were used in
the compositions including bells,
fruit, stars, madonnas and angels,
together with a quanity of glitter,
gold, and sparkle.
Os much interest to many wo
ment were the variety and excell
ent quality of the plastic or per
manent flowers which are being
used in so many homes today. All
or the arrangements seen used the
permanent flowers.

Mrs. Glynn Harrison, Mrs. John

At Baylor Univ.
I Mr. C. Neill Baylor and his
father, Neill Senior of Hagertown,
Maryland, were guests of Baylor
University in Waco, Texas, this
i weekend. The university held its
eighth annual Conference o n
American Ideals and the Baylors
i were on hand to participate in
special ceremonies commemorat
ing the founding of Baylor Uni
versity.
Neill Baylor is a co-lateral des
cendant of Judge Robert Emmet
Bledsoe Baylor for whom the uni
, versity is named and one of the
: three founders of Baylor univer-
I sity in 1845. He made the trip
to Waco at the personal invitation
of Dr. W. R. White, president of
Baylor, the largest Baptist col
lege in the world.
On Saturday the Baylors pre

"From Bull Run to Bull Run”
written by a grandfather and con
taining a history of the family.
On Friday afternoon the Baylors
were shown through the Baylor
Room in the 'Texas History Col

full of relics and mementoes of
R. E. B. Baylor.
Incidently the university proved
themselves in a thrilling game
Saturday afternoon when the
Bears defeated a strong Southern
California team 35-14.
The Crossroads
Richmond Hill welcomes mem
bers of the Southeast Associa
ed Garden Clubs. We are happy
that so many representatives will
have the opportunity of seeing
Bryan County at its best.
Sorry to learn that another
favorite family has left the com
munity. M/Sgt. S. A. Lott, Dot and
children are now making their
home in Douglas. Daughter Ann
enrolled in High School (Coffee
County) in September and the
rest of the family followed when
S. A. received his retirement from
service at Hunter Field.
Mr. J. F. Pecenka is a patient
at Warren Candler Hospital. He
was admitted following a serious
heart attack. Mrs. Gordon Harne
is a patient at the same hospital.
Our best wishes for a speedy re
covery to both.
Mrs. Beatrice Davis and Bill
Smith were involved in a slight
i accident in Savannah last Tues
day when a car hit them from
behind. Damage to their car was
negligible and while “Bee” experi
enced a whiplash through the
neck and shoulders, Bill was un
hurt.
। The Methodist Nursery Depart
i ment is in need of equipment and
furniture for the children. They
particularly need a crib and play
pen. Anyone having such equip
ment or furniture can contact the
department or Sunday School
Superintendent.
Understand the Methodist
Church served at least four hun
dred people at their barbecue last
Saturday. The supper was deli
cious and those who helped in
making it such a success should be
congratulated.
Everyone so delighted to see
Aunt Dollie Rimes again. Aunt
Dolly left our school to teach in
Bloomingdale and was back this
( weekend to attend the barbecue
। and visit many friends.
Two more residents are pati
-11 ents in the hospital. Mr. Ernest
, I Sikes is a patient at the Central

was a patient at the Candler Hos

Pontiac tailors body design to a new Wide-Track
.. Better balance and roadability! Control that can't be copied!
‘ We’ve built more room and greater roadability into this sleek new '6l Pontiac.
I There's more headroom, legroom and footroom. Doors are wider and they're
designed to open farther for greater convenience.
By trimming side overhang, we balanced more weight directly between
the wheels. The '6l Pontiac gives you greater stability. It gives you a greater
sense of control for every mile, every maneuver.
isn’t now the time to try the Wide-Track way to travel?

LEAVES IN SOIL
Will certain types of leaves in
the soil make it too acid? The
answer to this question is "no.”
You can feel safe in using fall
leaves from any tree or shrub in
your yard to build the soil.
The leaves, however, should be
decomposed before use. Working
fresh leaves into the soil is not
recommended.
Leaves do not decompose at a
fast rate on theeir own accord. De
composition takes place only when
certain bacteria and fungi are
present in large enough quantities
to do the job.
To make the leaves into humus
quickly, you must provide an en
vironment which will encourage
rapid growth of the bacteria and
fungi. This requires that ample
moisture and fertilizer be added
to the leaves.

A Letter of Appreciation to the Voters
Os Bryan County
We would like to express our appreciation to those who voted
for Cleveland Strickland as a write-in candidate in the gen
eral election. We also thank Cleveand for being our candi
date. We regret that we were unabe to give better instructions
on how to vote this ticket. Our candidate received a number
of votes which were improperly marked and did not count.
We especially thank those who contributed to this campaign
on our behalf. We will always have a warm feeling in our
hearts for those who stood by us and did not falter.

I potatoes this year probably not
! iced that a good many potatoes
were large and cracked. In most
' cases the cracks were healed over,
' but nevertheless disease organ
( isms had a chance to get into the
’ potatoes. Damage from these or
| ganisms may not show up until
| the potatoes have been in storage
for some time.
Sweet potatoes crack for three
main reasons: stable manure ap
■ plied to the soil before transplant
• ing; sudden spurt of growth after
I short dry periods; and severe in
i festation of root-know nematodes.
The nematodes can be controlled
by use of soil fumigation mater
ials.
POULTRY PROTECTION
There has been a chill in the air
!in recent weeks. For poultry men
this should mean it is time to get
ready to winterize broiler and
■! layer houses. Here are some
things you should do:
Make provisions for closing up
; broiler houses in extremely cold
! weather. Windows or panels at
I the side of the house should be
arranged so that they can easily
.। be opened and closed. With these,
; I ventilation can be easily provided
. ’ to prevent wet litter and possible
,’“sweating” from the roof.
• I Never put more than 750 chicks
■ I to a 1,000 chick capacity gas or
■ electric hover during winter
1 months. It’s a good idea to pro
. vide some sort of supplementary
“standby” heat in addition to the
J regular heat. It may never be
! needed, but it may prove a life
saver if extremely cold weather
, comes.
