Our Thanks
■ .f MfeMMi* w ..
To Everyone!
Now that the power'shortage is relieved and restrictions are at an end
-—until September 1 —it is time for us to express our appreciation to the
people of Georgia.
They accepted inconveniences and made sacrifices; and complaints of any
kind were very few. With a fine spirit of patriotic unselfishness, they showed
that they are instantly willing to put the Nation’s needs above their per
sonal convenience. There need be no question now if indeed there ever has
been a question —of the fact that the people of this state are united in sup
port of the National Defense effort.
To all the people who did without accustomed conveniences in their
homes; to business men who darkened billboards and store windows and in
teriors; to office building owners who curtailed elevator service; to municipal
officials who reduced street lights; to employers and employes in industry
who accepted night work and modified working schedules; to players and
spectators who denied themselves the pleasure of night sports; to EVERY
ONE who cooperated in the program, we extend our most sincere thanks.
* * *
Because of the unexpectedly heavy rains during July in Georgia, Ala
bama and Tennessee, stream flows are unusually high. As a result, the run
of-river hydroelectric plants are operating at high capacity. Because of this,
it has been possible first to modify and then to remove the restrictions on
use of power. Also, new steam-electric generating dapacity is a most impor
tant help. In Georgia, the first unit of Plant Arkwright, near Macon, having
a capacity of 1,000,000 kilowatt hours a day, was completed and went in
service early in June. The second unit of Plant Atkinson, having a capacity
of 1,500,000 kilowatt hours a day, will be completed about August 15,
During the period of curtailment, there were several changes in the pro
gram. These various changes were made as rainfall and river-flow conditions
changed, simply to allow the consumers on our lines to use all of the power
available consistent with maintaining the safety of the power supply.
* * >'f
Because of the power-saving program, water has been gradually accumu
lating in the hydroelectric storage reservoirs since the low point was reached
on June 13. But the reservoirs are still far from full; they are still much
lower than they should be at this time of year. For that reason, we ask you
to use your electric service prudently and efficiently, without waste.
It may be that restrictions of some kind will have to be restored on Sep
tember 1, if August is a very dry month, or if there should be extraordinary
increases in the power demands for National Defense. Right now, however,
I there is no necessity for further power curtailment, so the program is off,,
at least until September 1.

Cat Coincidence
For the department of remarkable
coincidences: Officer E. K. O’Brien
of the police records bureau in Wash
ington was scanning the lost-and
found column of the newspaper. He
found an ad about a missing tomcat
named Teddy. O’Brien looked up j
to sec a weary-looking cat walk into i
the room. It was Teddy, giving j
himself up.

Don’t Be Too Smart
One way to keep the other fellow
from marking you down as dumb or
misinformed is to confine your posi
tive, unqualified opinions to the sub
ject or subjects on which you are
, an authority. When the talk is down
your alley be as positive as you like,
! but when it gets around ter the other
I fellow’s field, let him tell you. The
' reason this simple rule is so hard
1 to follow is that the average fellow
I is afraid to admit he doosiVt know
everything about everything. He is
afraid that if he asks questions and
tries to learn from the other fellow,
he’ll think he is smarter. Proof that
nothing like that happens occurs all
the time. A man or woman will
spend two hours listening to another
person explain the subject in which
I he is most interested, interrupting
only to ask an intelligent question.
And the other fellow will say,
“There’s a smart person.’’
- )
That’s Telling Him
For months he had been her de
voted admirer. Now, at long last,
he had collected up sufficient cour
age to ask her the most momentous
I of all questions. “There are quite
| a loPof advantages in being a bachc*
| lor,’’ he began, “but there comes
| a time when one longs for the com*
I panionship of another being—a being
| who will regard one as perfect, as
I an idol; whom one can treat as one r
absolute property; who will be kinu
and faithful when times are hard;
who will share one’s joys and sor
rows—” To his delight he saw J
sympathetic gleam in her eyes,
Then she nodded in agreement. “So
you’re thinking of buying a dog?”
she said. “I think it’s a fine idea. Do
let me help you choose one!”
Killing Power of Germicide
It is surprising to learn that the
j amount of a germicide one uses is
no real indication of its killing pow
er. The sterilizing power depends
to a great extent upon the alkalinity
or acidity of the germicide. In or
der to keep its strength over a peri
od of days and weeks, the solution
must be quite alkaline, but to be
i most effective in slaying the germs
! it must be much less alkaline. It
I was found that a solution which is
alkaline enough to keep fresh in
definitely can be made 190 times as
I effective as a germ killer if its
alkalinity is sharply decreased just
i.elore use.

, juices from native fruits will be
