Birthday Party For
Denise Embry
At Storyland
. Denise, 3 year old daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. D. M: Embry, had
the loveliest birthday party on
Sunday, July 15th, when she and
her guests were taken to "Story
land” out on Marietta Highway.
There they saw most of the
fairy-tales they know so well.
Little Jack Horner, 80-Peep,
Little Red-Riding Hood, and
lots more. They had swings,
rides, slides and all the fun of
the fair. They had ice cream and
birthday cake, cookies and sand
wiches, in a lovely room, all
decorated with ribbons and bal
loons. And everybody came away
with a gift.
There were cars and trucks for
the boys, and bracelets and
beads for the girls. Helping
Denise to enjoy all this, were
grandmas and grandpas, mother
and daddy and brother, Claude,
and small guests Eddy Floyd,
Steve Thomas, Pat Isrel, Tina
Bazelin, Randolyn Sandlin, Mike
Hammack, Terry Love, and some
of their mothers, too. It was in
deed a happy day.

The article about the Hon. 11
Herman Talmadge in the June 6 i
Collier’s Magazine STINKS. I i
don’t take Collier’s, though I did ]
for years; because this Damyan- '
kee Magazine, like so many oth
ers, tries to run the South s busi
ness. But I had heard about this i
article, and had tried to get it. :
but no soap. Mrs. Pearl Sowell :
of Jonesboro sent it to mewhen
she found I was hunting it. i
That article is written by a
man who doesn’t know the :
South, doesn’t know Georgia, i
nor Georgians, and doesn’t want

LADIES’ AND CIVIC CLUB LUNCHEONS ARRANGED
to know them as they are. He
got all his information from At
lanta left-wingers who would
like to cut the throat of Herman
Talmadge because he doesn’t
fight segregation. The informa
tion this writer received came
directly fro m NAACPs who
lauded little Ellie Arnall, as the
state's most progressive gover
nor. It said he won over “Old
Gene's buffoonery and dicta
torial methods”. He did NOT.
Little Ellie won because all the
money that could be gathered up
by the left-wingers was piled
into Georgia. LittSe 8111® could
net be elected dcg-catcher. how 1
—as I told you before. i
This article criticizes our 1
county unit system, and declares 1
the cites don’t have a chance in i
state elections. No Buddy, they 1
don’t—if they did, all the rest of 1
us little counties would be ih the 1
chaingang. 1
This guy lauds Senator George '
—you know the feller with the ’
umbrella, who turned against his ’
own state and his own country '
in favor of left-wingism. He was 1
so far left that he almost fell 1
into the Volge River. The guy 1
also says George’s health would
not permit a campaign, and that '
Herman took the reins and* ran :
away. Gosh, how low can left- i
wing writers get? Nobody spoke ’
of George being too feeble to
run for re-election—his co- ;
workers just realized that Her
man Talmadge was going to beat :
the stuffin’ out of him. and win :
in all the counties. Why? Be- 1
cause George went haywire and
thought he could take on all the i
NAACP views, and get by with
them.
This article decries the fact j
that the late Gene Talmadge ।
was no gentleman, and that ;
Herman is not either, but he
can go places since the new i
South demands a new and
shrewder breed in its politics.

But. With all the dirtt Yankee,
left - wing, NAACP criticism
about our own Herman Tal
madge, there is a veiled appre
ciation of the fighting blood in i
Herman Talmadge—there is a i
veiled fear that Herman Tai- 1
madge is going to make things. i
hum when he goes to Washing- 1
ton, (and he will). There is a 1
veiled feeling in tfiis guy’s 1
thoughts that he and all the .
other NAACPs are waging a log- I
ing fight against decency, law ’
and order, segregation, and the j
South’s right to run its own
business. j
The left-wing guy who wrote
this article tries to make his :
readers feel smug and assured 1
that Herman Talmadge and '
those who think, vote, feel, and
work as Herman does—and they •
are legion—will soon be past his- !
tory. Yet he all but voices his
fear that Herman Talmadge and
all those who will be leaders like
Herman Talmadge, are going to
mop up with the left-wing ele
ment some day. 1
These guys from the Dam
yankee magazines are sent down
here to help ruin the South, but
flarn ’em, they just get our
Southern dander up; and we
fight 'em, their mailed fists, and
scurrilous pens that, much hard
er,
I am writing all this to prove
that the whole left-wing nation
is afraid of Herman Talmadge.
He IS THE MAN OF THE HOUR,
and when the people all over the
nation find out that other lead
ers in other Southern states ate
going to follow him, the whole
nation will wollow suit. That is,
all but the hardest-hit NAACPs
—and even they will try to hang
onto Herman’s coattail. In fact,
some of them already are doing
just that.
The Hon. Herman Talmadge is
our area’s most outstanding
citizen, and while we as a whole,
resent all that left-wing writer
said against Herman—we know
Herman has got people scared.
Even the old octopus, “the nine
old men" is trying to pull in his
arms for awhile that is, till he
gets another nice, traditional
body to wrap around.
Just watch our Hon. Herman
Talmadge!

Reminiscences of Bygone Days
BY B. M. WOOTAN
I see the U. S. Senate has
passed Senator Walter George’s
Social Security bill, for which I
am very proud. Sen. George has
been a great champion for So
cial Security for the poor people
of our country, and he deserves
credit for it.
I believe Herman Talmadge
will win Sen. George’s seat with
out much difficulty, and 1 think
he can be just as great a Sena
tor as Walter George has been
or at least we hope he will be.
I am glad to see the Chamber
of Commerce of Clayton County
being interested in a county sew
erage system, which when com
pleted, will mean better health

I visited the Ida Cason Callo
way Gardens the other day, and
I was surprised at the size of it.
It contains numerous lakes and
gardens and recreation facilities,
it’s beautiful. If you haven’t ever
seen it you should pay it a visit.
QUOTES
Remember, what you have to
give may be small, but it may
mean a lot to someone who
needs it.
Happiness is inside and not
outward. It does not depend on
what we possess, but on what we
are.
God sometimes washes His
children’s eyes with tears of
sorrow so they can get a clearer
vision of His will concerning
.them.
To see what is right and not
do it, is cowardice.
' When the world becomes as
tired of you as you are of the
world, then you are a real synic.
If there is someone you don’t
like, try Christ’s prescription for
1 a few days and maybe you can
learn to love this person, and you
; will understand Christ’s love for
• you shown of Calvary Cross.
There are a lot of people that
I are so bid in their own estima
tion that they don’t feel the need
of Jesus.
Faith is a life lived to prove
what you believe.
; You should not spend precious
time talking about the past or
i the future, you don’t possess
either one, but you do have to-
’. day. so use it wisely.
I Wife—Why did you tell that
man that you married me be-
. cause I was a good cook?
Husband— It was the best ex
: case I could think of without
telling a lie.
