Bprdiae of Blue Ridge, World War II veteran and candidate for Commander of the Georgia Department of the American Legion, stated this week that in his opinion the Le- giop has greater opportunities^ than any other veterans organ¬ ization or civic club to be of serv¬ ice to the nation as a whole. He said “Contact with Legion- nafcrps throughout the state has convinced me that, potentially, the American Legion has a greater sphere of activity and resources than any other veter¬ ans organization or civic club. We have our pick of the nation’s leaders, yet we have failed to take the lead due to our ignor¬ ance and lack of education as to our own program. We have failed to take our proper place as a Veteran and Civic organi¬ zation. “The reasons for this are many, but in my opinion the most mportant reasons our pro¬ grams are stymied is because we spend our time bickering and feuding at both personal and group levels. We grind too many axes at the expense of the indi¬ vidual Legionnaire. In correct¬ ing these faults I shall make mistakes, but w r ith the help of all Legionaires these mistakes will be kept at a minimum. “I am a member of no politi¬ cal group in the Department of Georgia and do not intend to become part of any group. I have made no promises or com¬ mitments and shall make none prior to election, other than the program I advocate. If elected, appointments will be made on ability and interest in Legion welfare. They will not be made on political promises. “My solution to these problems Is one of education from the De¬ partment to Post levels, and this program shall be made public in detail.” Production of naval stores from longleaf and slash pines offers timber owmers in the naval stores belt opportunities for an income in a relatively short peiod of years. * * * Like many other virtues, hos¬ pitality is practiced, in its per¬ fection, by the poor. —Mrs- Kirk- I [ oca j an( j Personal' News Items Mr. and Mrs. John F.

Turner While convalescing from a mi¬ nor operation in a Richmond nospital, Thomas G. Pace, a ior- mer citizen of Dade county, died unexpectedly on April 3. His attending physician attributed his sudden death to a blood clot having reached his heart from the surgical operation performed % few days before. Thomas Gardenhire Pace was oorn and reared in Trenton, the son of the late Jeremiah G. (Shook) Pace and Mrs. Susan Gardenhire Pace, menUpers of a prominent pione&r family. Whije yet a young man, some 20 or 30 years ago, the deceased ’eft his home county and loca¬ ted at Hopewell, Va., where he married and reared his family. During the past several years he has held a responsible posi¬ tion with the duPont-Hercules Company, which operates a large .’hemical plant at Hopewell. Thomas Pace leaves to survive bis passing, his wife; one son, T. G. Pace, Jr.; one daughter, Miss brother, Jerry C. Pace, of Tren- Susan Pace, all of Hopewell; one ton; two sisters, Mrs. Ethel Mc- Corkle, of Thomson, Ga., and Mrs. Homer E. Morrow of Truss- ville, Ala. During the years of his resi¬ dence in his adopted home town, Tom Pace had become one of its leading substantial citizens as was evidenced by the large num¬ ber of citizens who were present when the last sad rites were spoken over his remains ; and the profusion of floral offerings which were contributed by his friends in loving tribute to his memory. Remains of the deceased were interred in the beautiful Hope¬ well cemetery. The citizens of Trenton and Dade county all deeply sympa¬ thize with the family in their bereavement. Let our light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.— Matthew 5; 16- Department Of jj Public Health * A “TALL” STORY National Posture Week, May 5 to 10, is the occasion for contests, broadcasts, and a variety of de¬ monstrations by schools, Y’s and nealth groups to emphasize the value of good posture- ' It’s “tall” story. If you will a make it a habit to sit tall, stand tall and walk tall you will feel better, do better, and most cer¬ tainly look better. It is natural that breathing, urculation, and digestion can (unction more easily when the body is held so that its parts have the greatest freedom of action and are not crowded one upon the other. The undue strain placed on muscles, joints, and ligaments by poor posture is the cause of much of the fatigue and vague aches experienced by so many otherwise healthy individuals. Not everyone can have what is generally known as excellent posture; there are conditions chat may prevent an individual from holding an erect carriage. Consultation with a physician is iidvisable, if postural defects are severe. However, there are very few Who cannot raise their chests a little more, hold the|r heads a little higher. This is a good ime to start a habit that can add to appearance, energy, and zest for living.—Georgia Health. HOOKER COLORED NEWS Mr. Ross Owens spent the week epd in Jasper, Tenn.
