A 150-year-old home
comes of age,
the total-electric age.
In the early 1820’s this brick and gingerbread
home in Madison, Georgia, was a showcase of
grace and charm.
And time has changed only one thing. Today,
Bruce Atkinson’s antique manor is as modern
as tomorrow. Because it has been converted
to total-electric.
( lean, cozy warmth is provided in each of the
11 rooms by individual flameless electric wall
panel heaters. Each with its own thermostat
for precise temperature control. To within one
degree of thermostat setting.
Electricity does the cooking, refrigeration,
food freezing, water heating, clothes washing
and drying. Full Housepower Wiring amply
accommodates an entire staff of electric servants.
If you’re planning to buy, build or modernize,
remember: a house is just as young 7is the
energy source that serves it. Mr. Atkinson’s
total-electric centenarian is current proof.

v FROM THE UIIITLU STATES $£ IE 1
CIVIL DISORDER, which in recent years has literally taken
America by storm, is in fact a steadily worsening phenomenon in
our country.
Starting with the sit-in syndrome about 8 years ago. we
have seen civil disorder take on many forms. It has run the
gamut all the way from would-be peaceful picketing and street
marches to revolt, insurrection, and bloody rioting.
We have seen hordes take to the streets to denounce their
own country and condemn American involvement in Viet Nam.
We have suffered flag burnings and anti-draft demonstrations.
The civil rights issue has been taken out of the Congress anJ
our courts of law. and put in the hands of mobs in the streets.
In short, civil disorder has virtually become the order of
the day. And worse yet. its proponents have almost abandoned
.ill pretense of staying within the bounds of peaceful assembly
and lawful dissent. In fact, experience has shown them that
the more lawless they are. the better their chances of getting what
they want,
o * «
IT IS A SHAME and a disgrace that law and order have
(alien into such disrepute. We see taking place in our country a
rebellion against all authority, whether it emanates in the home,
the church, the school, or from legally-constituted government.
One aspect of this situation that is particularly shocking is
the fact that college students in many parts of the country have
gotten into the action and turned their own campuses into
battlegrounds. One might well ask: who runs the colleges these
days, students or the administration that is put there by the tax
payers to deal in higher education and not juvenile insurrection?
It has become almost commonplace for colleges to be dis
rupted by unruly students, and in some instances to be totally
^hut down by student-produced anarchy. And. in all too many
instances, instead of receiving the discipline that they deserve,
they are rewarded by acquiescence on the part of their superiors.
•j <. s
I HIS IS ESPECIALLY disturbing to me because young peo
ple today have more important things to do than take the law into
their own hands, and add to the problem of growing disrespect
lor established authority.
It they want to insure for themselves a future where the law
still rules this land, and not militant rabblerousers. students
would do better to concentrate on their studies and then, if they
still have the time and energy left, to work to restore discipline
anil order to our society.
Tarkenton Star Student MC
Fran Tarkenton, exciting,
scrambling quarterback for
the New York Giants and
special Marketing Staff Rep
resentative with the Coca-
Cola Company, Atlanta, dur
ing the off-season, will high
light the annual banquet in
Atlanta on Wednesday, Ap
ril 17, honoring the 1968
STAR Student and STAR
Teacher Award winners from
Georgia’s 10 Congressional
Districts, as well as the 185
system STAR Students and
their STAR Teachers.
Tarkenton, famous nation
ally for his daring brand of
professional football and re
membered by all Georgians
as an All-American at the
University of Georgia, was
also a top scholar and was
named to the All-American
Academic Football Team in
1959-60. His interest in scho
lastic achievement continues
and he will play a key role
in helping the Georgia State
Chamber of Commerce salute
these outstanding students
and teachers from all over
the state. Climaxing the ban
quet at Atlanta’s Regency
Hyatt House will be the an
nouncement of Georgia’s top
STAR Student and Teacher
for 1968.
and was a veteran of World
War 11. Although only 45
years old he formerly was
pastor of Mt. Paran Baptist
and Bethsaida Baptist
churches, the latter In River
dale.
At First Baptist Church of
Morrow, where he was a very
active member, he taught a
men’s Sunday School Class
and on occasions when the
pastor had to be absent he
served in the pulpit, holding
the title of Reverend.
It Is very difficult for the
area to spare a man of Rev.
Williams’ many talents for
there are too few able to step
Into his shoes.
In the case of Imperial
Management the company Is
fortunate in having very
competent leaders and It Is
now In the process of choos
ing one of them to assume
the vacancy.

If you refuse to drive a Volkswagen
because it's ugly, we can't help you.
If you refuse to drive a Volkswagen
because you have eight kids and it isn't
big enough, you have our sympathy.
If you refuse to drive a Volkswagen
because it isn't fancy enough, that's for
you to decide.
But if you refuse to drive a Volkswagen
because you're used to an automatic
transmission, listen carefully.
Now you can drive a Volkswagen alt

AN OPEN LETTER TO THE PEOPLE OF CLAYTON COUNTY
The people of Clayton
County have earned words of
high praise for their over
whelming support of the re
cent Heart Fund Drive. Their
contributions and coopera
tion have put the drive well
over its goal in this county.
The recognition by the
people of Clayton County of
the worthiness of this cause
is evident by their support of
it. This money will be used
for education and research
in the cure and prevention of
heart defects.
—Clifford N. England,
Chairman, Clayton
County Heart Assn.
Morrow Junior
Woman's Club
Has Meeting
"Just What Is a Federated
Woman’s Club" was the
theme of the Morrow Jun
ior Woman’s Club regular
monthly meeting Thursday,
March 28. Prospective mem
bers were the guests of the
club.
Mrs. Bruce Davis was pre
sented with a sterling silver
engraved tray which high
lighted the evening. The
Davis family will represent
the sixth district as Family
of the Year.
Colorful delicious refresh
ments were served carrying
out the “Easter Egg” theme.
We call this new option the automatic
stick shift.
And in true Volkswagen fashion, a bug
with an automatic stick shift will deliver
up to 25 miles on a gallon of gas, use
very little oil, and nary a drop of water
Or antifreeze.
But just because we've made it easy
to drive, doesn't mean we're about to
make it any prettier, or any bigger, or
any fancier. So we imagine some people
will still refuse to drive Volkswagens.
You can’t win them all.
