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.

GEORGIA POWER COMPANY t xeessebibsie nsa A Prix*-Winning Newspaper |s(i£t)rl 1961 pX-ay Better Newspaper Conterta NATIONAL NEWSPAPER I I International Life Insurance Co., currently organizing and due to be launched this month. Only a few days before his death Mr Williams had re- I turned from Dallas, Tex., where he attended a seminar with agency executives from 38 different life insurance companies over the country and he had finished No. 1 in the class, receiving a hand- I some flight bag as his prize. He had taken a leading > role in civic affairs, being a member of the board of the Atlanta Youth Ranch group ’ and active in Forest Park ! Optimist Club affairs. “Al,” as he was familiarly known to his friends, grad | uated from Mercer in 1949 Herman Talmadge 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. GOOD, CLEAN FUN!

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.
