Turn Down
Bond Issue
Citizens of Morrow refused
Saturday to approve a $195,000
bond issue which would have
been used to buy recreational
property.
In spite of strong support by
Mayor Frank Frame, the City
Council and the Recreational
Study Commission, the vote was
187-121 against the bonds. Had
the bonds been approved, the
city’s tax rate would have been
raised 1.5 mills.
The bond issue would have
been matched by funds of Na
tional Land and Water Conser
vation Act for a total of nearly
$400,000 to develop a 24-acre
tract for recreational use.
According to City Council
man Bruce Davis, the nega
tive vote was the direct re
sult of a controversial coun
cil meeting held last Tues
day when property was re
zoned to allow 108 apart
ments to be built.
A MAJORITY of those attend
ing had disapproved of the ac
tion and had said they would
voice their attitude by refusing
to vote in favor of the bond
issue, Mr. Davis said.
Councilman James Hale and
Bill Sammons voted for the re
zoning. Mr. Davis and J. P.
Mays cast their votes against it.
Mayor Frame's vote for the
apartments broke the tie.

God's Plan Is at Work
By CHARLES GOE
Pastor Ash Street Baptist Church
Chaplain Bill Taggart tells of climbing high up
on one of the mountains in Colorado. The snow was
still covering most of the mountain top; Spring was
on the way, but yet, Winter was hanging heavily
upon this mountain. As he looked at one spot, glanc-
ing down at his feet, he no
ticed a small flower that had
pro'truded through the earth.
The snow had been cleared
away from this particular
spot and the flower was
growing beautifully there.
This helps
us to under
stand some
thing of our
world. As we
look about us
with the
snows of life
that cover
many of the
mou n t a i n
tops of the
world, and as winter has
pressed upon us, with now
spring already here, and
summer looming on the ho
rizon, God’s plan is at work
and the small blooms beau
tifully against the horizon of
snow.
This week, May 19th
through 26th is Soil Stew
ardship Week. All over
America this recognition Is
given to the fact that the
land comes from God, but
that its preservation and
continual sustenance and
proper use is up to us. We
know that even as God left

great expanses of the earth,
seemingly undeveloped, yet
there are many areas that
have been developed in a
wonderful way and these
areas can be used for the
glory of God and for the
benefit of man.
Every man that eats his
breakfast, lunch and dinner
daily; every man that walks
upon the sod. or flies into
the air; every man that
looks about him at a great
river or sees the majestic
waves of the ocean, must
come to realize that, Indeed,
this is God’s gift to him, but
he has a responsibility in
cultivating it.
As we think in terms of
this week let us join with
the leaders of America and
with others in the statement
made by Solomon in Pro
verbs 6:6 "Go to the ant.
thou sluggard; consider her
ways and be wise.” Surely
we can learn lessons from
the sky, from the earth and
from the small creatures
that exist; lessons of dili
gence and challenge; oppor
tunities of effort are re
warded with joys and privi
leges in the future.

CARE OF FIGS
Do you plan to include fig
trees in your home orchard?
Extension Service horticul
turists at the University of
Georgia point out that Feb
ruary is a good time to
transplant them. Remember,
figs will not stand severe
cold without protection and
should therefore be planted
on the southeast side of a
building.
