garten on Central Avenue in
Forest Park about 10 o’clock Sat
urday morning.
Fire inspectors believe the fire
started from faulty electrical
wiring possibly brought on by
the bad weather conditions.
The Youmans lost their cloth
ing and furniture in the fire,
and the house was almost a
complete loss.
There will not be any inter
ruption in the services of the
nursery and kindergarten, Mr.
Youmans said Saturday.

FRIENDS OF JOE T. LANE SPEAK
3. He is a young man with a record of civic work that cannot often
be equaled by men under age 30.
4. Based upon his post performance, we are confident that Joe Lane
has a future of accomplishment ahead of him. He has the character
and intelligence to do the job, the ambition and vitality of youth, the
settled habits of men many years his senior.
For these reasons, and others which will be outlined in later mes
sages, we feel that, all things considered, he is unquestionably the best
man to carry on the duties of Ordinary of Clayton County.
We ask that you carefully consider his past performance in the
community and in his former position, when you are considering who
would make the best Ordinary of Clayton County for you, the citizens,
who will do the hiring on election day.
THIS ADVERTISEMENT PREPARED AND PAID FOR BY FRIENDS AND SUPPORTERS
OF JOE T. LANE, CANDIDATE FOR RE-ELECTION AS ORDINARY, CLAYTON COUNTY
DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY, SATURDAY, APRIL 23, 1960.
SNOW STORM
(Continued From Page 1)
tistry were created in yards, and
the youngsters had a great time
as they threw snowballs and
tried sledding on improvised
sleds.
Some grown men had recap
tured the spirit of their youth.
Over in Jonesboro Dennis the
Menace took a back seat to Red
McKibben, who threw snowballs
unerringly at friend and visitor
alike. Finally, a friendly group
chased McKibben to cover.
The snow transformed the
area into a winter wonderland
but did little damage to any
thing but business.
Sunday was a beautiful sun
shiny day, sportsmen hauled
their boats to the lakes and fish
ermen were on the move.
According to the best infor
mation the weather bureau had
at press time, this Wednesday,
will be a rather balmy day. and
the last of the ice and snow of
the season has been experienced.
We wouldn’t bet on it, but that’s
the way it looks at this time.

from the new Post Office.
On these formal opening days
there will be a free carousel
(merry-go-round) for the chil
dren, free Pepsis for everyone,
and a free grease job with every
oil change, and a coupon for a
later change if it’s not done at
the time.
Dalton is well known here,
having previously worked at
Abercrombie-Patterson Funeral
Home and was prior to that in
the taxi business. He has had
long experience and welcomes
friends and everyone who drives
a car to try the all-around serv
ice facilities of the station and
to enjoy formal opening days on
Friday and Saturday.
This week, we friends of Joe T. Lane, candidate for
re-election as Ordinary of Clayton County, would like to
offer a brief message in his behalf for your consideration.
1. In our opinion Joe T. Lane has indicated that he is
a man of well-above-average ability.
2. Although he is but 24 years of age, he held a re
sponsible position with a very large firm, and had held a
position with that firm for eight years. It was a position
usually held bv men much older, an indication of Joe
Lane's abilities.
