Georgia Power, will spend more than $230 million for construction this year, because you are using more elec tricity than ever. That s nearly $1 million each working day, to build new facilities and enlarge existing ones. This year 7 s construction budget is the largest in our history. Its $79 million more than the combined invest ments of all the 140 new industries that came on our service lines last year. And, since this money must be raised in the open market, record-high interest rates will add millions of dollars more to our costs. The money will be used to build generating stations. New substations. Transmission and distribution lines. Because our goal is to continue supplying plenty of de pendable, low-cost electric power that makes life better in so many ways. We think that’s a pretty important job. And well worth the money we spend.

Thank you for call- TO THE EDITOR iny it to our attention and we have also noted in the copy of the minutes you sent that you were indeed against any increase in salary for the Mayor and Council.) Editor The Houston Home Journal Ferry, Ga. Dear Sir: It has been ascertained that the recent Peruvian earthquake was one of the worst disasters of our lime. Winter weather in the area is compounding the suffer ing of thousands of victims. Many local people have asked the Red Cross if they could help these people. We have just been informed by the American National Red Cross that blankets, heavy sweaters, jackets and over coats are needed. These gar ments should be new or freshly cleaned. Anyone who would like to donate some of these items may call Mrs. Hugh Morris at the Red Cross office in Warner Rob ins, 923-6332, and arrange ments will be made to have the clothes picked up. Our chapter will also have a quota of 400 comfort kits to be made, filled and dis tributed in the earthquake area. These kits will be sim ilar to the ditty bags made for our own servicemen, and will be filled with personal items such as soap, combs, hand towels, cups and eat ing utensils. Any organization, busi ness or individuals who can give some of the above items (new) for filling the kits should notify the Red Cross office. Cash contributions in any amount are also wel come. Very truly yours, CHARLES H. YATES JR. Chapter Chairman Coming Events The Perry Lion’s Club will hold its directors meeting on July 6 at 7:30 p. m, at Atk inson’s, Hikhway 341 North.

Brush Painters Resourceful aborigine artists of Arnhem Land, Australia, use plant juices for primer and pul verized colored stones for paints to create designs on canvasses of eucalyptus tree bark. Locks of women’s hair serve as brushes. * * * Quick Shelter When army ants bivouac at night, each ant clings to a neigh bor to form a living rope with their tens of thousands of bodies. The mass of bodies, hanging from a vine or log to the ground, makes a snug, safe camp for the queen. Our new equipment sometimes makes the same old mistakes Phillip Brilt/Installer/Perry and then your phone won’t work. It “bugs” me as much as it “bugs” you. Because I don’t like to think something I’ve helped maintain has a flaw. But even the most up-to-date systems can cause occasional trouble. So I go out right away to that trouble because I want it cleared up too. General Telephone PEOPLE WHO CARE f^erdonais Mrs. B. B.
