Our town was brought to the at
tention of a group of people from
all 50 states at the Waldorf Astor
ia hotel in New York this week.
The background for the display
was a beautiful bedspread donated
by Georgia Decor, Inc. for the
occasion. Against the spread was
a placard showing Georgia Decor,
Inc. to be the world’s largest man
ufacturer of tailored bedspread
located at Perry, Georgia.
Then the publicity centered on
Perry, with the theme being The
Motel Center at the Crossroads of
Georgia. Emphasis was placed on
Perry being located on Interstate
Highway 75, U. S. Highway 41 and
U. S. Highway 341.
This publicity was on display
in the Gold Room of the Waldorf
Astoria, and was seen by several
hundred postmasters from all over
the country, the occasion being the
National Convention of The Post
masters Association of the United
States. Many high ranking postal
officials also saw the exhibit.
This material was prepared and
sent to New York by local Post
master Lawrence Hunt, with an as
sist from Miss Eunice Hunt, who
prepared the placards.

Buy-Lines
FOR GEORGIA CONSUMERS
Q. Which is a better buy—grade
A large eggs at 60 cents per dozen
or grade A small eggs at 39 cents
per dozen?
A. Large eggs run 24 ounces
per dozen and small eggs run 18
ounces per dozen. The cost per
ounce of food would then be two
and one-half cents for the large
eggs and two and one-sixth cents
for the small ones. If you are fig
uring cost by the amount of food
purchased, the small eggs are
somewhat thriftier to buy. Cost
per serving varies a great deal
more—five cents for the large as
compared with three and one
fourth cents for the small. How
you plan to use the eggs might
influence your choice.
Q. Some of my friends think I’m
pretty foolish because I won’t buy
items on time with two per cent
interest on the monthly balance. I
They say it is cheap interest.
A. The interest rate figure of
two per cent looks small until you
convert it to the true annual rate
of interest rather than on a month
ly basis. When converted on this
basis, two per cent per month on
the declining balance becomes 23.5
per cent which is rather high. You
very seldom see an interest rate
quoted on the true annual rate of
interest which is what the borrow
er needs to know before making
a judgment about the use of cre
dit.
Q. Fish appear on the market
in so many different ways it is
difficult to know how much to al
low for a serving. Can you help
me with this problem?
A. The amount of fish to allow
per serving varies according to
the stage of preparation: Whole
or round (as fish comes from the
water) —allow one pound per ser
ving; drawn (only entrails remov
ed) —three-fourths pound; dressed
(ready for the pan) one-half
pound; fillets—one-third pound,
and steaks—one-third pound.

Sometimes, we try so hard to im
press others that we only wind
up feeling foolish. People can tell
that we are, in a sense, “putting
on an act.”
Your problem may be that you
tried too hard to change your per
sonality. You tried to be what you
thought people wanted you to be
and, probably, in the process, your
own good personality suffered.
Be yourself. Be what you want
to be —friendly, lady-like, and
you will become more popular.
But, it isn’t accomplished over
night. Personality develops, with
age, with everyday experiences,
and through efforts to be a bet
ter person. You’ll always be un
satisfied with your personality if
you think you can change it every
time you put on a new hat.

Many states, when setting up
their constitutions, followed
the U. S. Constitution. The low

kept the farm interests from '

has also kept cities from pass

of agriculture.

But now the U. S. Supreme
Court, in a decision that is
more in the field of writing a

interpreting it, has declared
this system illegal. And this is
done at a time when law is

Thus, the U. S. Supreme

great enigma of modern man.

the United States Senate illegal.

SPEAK?
Ethridge Akin
BY EMMITT AKIN
AND BILLY ETHRIDGE
“One man’s food is another
man’s poison.”
This comment made over 2,000
years ago by a Roman philosopher,
Lucretius, was spoken in refer
ence to one of mankind’s most per
sistent ailments—allergies.
What Lucretius did not realize,
however, was that one man’s soap,
pet, garden, money and mattress,
along with literally thousands of
other everyday items, can also be
another man’s poison.
Allergies spring from five gen
eral groupings: Food—any and all
kinds; plant and animal emana
tions; animal dandruff; objects of
contact and bacteria.
No one, however, is allergic to

NECK AND
SHOULDER PAIN
.v.vx'jWk:
BY DR. EMMETT N. POPE
Pain through the neck, shoul
der and arms is a form of rheu
matism known as neuritis,
which means nerve inflamation.
This can be attributed to sud
den changes in temperature
and humidity. The body and
blood stream alters to meet
these changing climatic condi
tions. Nerves that are sick or
not up to par because of some
mechanical irritation in the
spine or some former injury
to the nerve seem to be affect
ed by these changes in the
blood which irritate these sick
nerves.
The chiropractor locates and
adjusts the cause of irritated
nerves and allows nature to
heal them. Climatic conditions
do not affect normal nerves.
