PUTTING IDEAS TO WORK—
How soon do new ideas get into
action in your school? It is an
I old saying that it takes 15 years
for a new idea to get put into
action in 3 per cent of the schools,
and 50 years for it to get into all
of them. There is now a new or
ganization that hires itself out to
schools to put new ideas Into ac
tion in their classrooms promptly.

PARKING; The county com
missioners have decided not to
make a parking lot on the south
side of the Courthouse Square, but
they authorized the City of Perry
to put parking meters on the Ball
Street and Jernigan Street sides of
the square. hTe city is now con
sidering the situation. Parking me
ters already are on one side of
the square, on Carroll Street. This
apparently would eliminate those
who park on the square all day.
Usually by 8 a. m., the free park
ing space is gone.
NO ANSWER; We wrote the at
torney general the other day to
ask him when Houston county,
now that it is big enough to war
rant two representatives in the
Georgia General Assembly, will
actually elect two representatives
—in 1961 or 1962? Well, we got
this letter from Hon. A. J. Hartley,
deputy assistant attorney general,
which said; “The Constitution
provides that the apportionment
of the House of Representatives
shall be made by the General As
sembly at its first session after
each census taken by the U. S.
Government. Therefore, the an
swer to your question would be
that the first session of the Gen
eral Assembly after the official
announcement of the Federal cen
sus would consider the question of
apportionment.”
We had already read the two
sections of the Constitution he
, quoted in his letter, but they did
not answer our question and nei
: ther did Mr. Hartley.
; We still have these questions:
1. Will Houston County vote for
two representatives in 1961 or
2. When we replace one of the
i 1962?
counties which formerly had two
representatives, but loses one be
cause of a loss of population,
which of the representatives elect
ed this year by that county will
be dropped off?
3. In view of the fact that the
official announcement of the Fed
eral census is expected prior to
i Jan. 1, 1961, and the 1961 general
i assembly will consider the reap
■ portionment, will Houston county
i get its second representative for
the second half of the 1961-62 ses
sion, which would normally be in
i January, 1961?
i 4. A representative is elected
i for a two-year term, but the term
is usually split into two sessions
of 40 days each at the beginning of
each year. Will this practice come
into the picture of reapportion
ment?
It appears that we will have to
wait and see. We can be glad that
we the not the county which will
lose a representative.
Ninety-six counties in the state
lost population during the last 10
years. We were one of the 63
counties which gained, with the
state’s total population ienreasing
by about 12 per cent.
CLOSER HOME: There’s a story
going "round about the kind old
lady who said to the Internal Rev
enue clerk: “I do hope you’ll give
my money to some NICE country.”
In Georgia, we might say to the
state revenue clerks: “We do hope
you will give our money to some
NICE politician.”
NOISE: Rev. J. M. Teresi, pastor
of the First Baptist Church here,
had to pause momentarily in her
sermon Sunday night to allow
some big trucks to pass so he
could be heard. It seemed like a
half dozen trucks without mufflers
came by, one after another, and
the minister said he could not
compete “with that tonnage.” He
suggested that the local newspa
per ought to ask someone to
“route the trucks around town”.
So here it is: please route the loud
trucks around town away from
the churches.
