NEEDS OF OLD PEOPLE
Miss Audrey Morgan, family life
specialist, Agricultural Extension
Service, says needs of older peo
ple are very similar to those of
younger people. Older folks need
to love and be loved, they need
useful work to do, a place in the
world, and economic and emotion
al security, Miss Morgan declares.
BOATING SAFETY
When boating, be sure you know
how to handle your craft before
you take it out. Never go out in a
boat on stormy days. Learn and
practice safety regulations for
boaters. These suggestions are
from Miss Luclic Higginbotham,
health education specialist, Agri
cultural Extension Service.
Average price per reildentlal kilowatt-hour.
SET YOURSELF a leisurely pace for this summer.
You can lighten a lot of your household chores
with electricity.
A bargain? You bet! During the past 30
years, for example, just about everything has
zoomed in price. Not electricity. The unit price
you pay has dropped a whopping 65 per cent.
Electricity is a good buy anywhere in this
big country of ours, but here in Georgia the
average price per kilowatt-hour is 19 per cent
less than the national average.
You’ll have hours to spare when you add a
dishwasher, clothes dryer or food freezer to
your staff of electrical servants. And the elec
tricity that runs them is the biggest bargain
you can buy.
