I*HE DADE COUNTY TIMES, TRENTON, GEORGIA, THt'RSOAY JULY 19, 1951 Improvement Column One of the lowliest places in the south end of the county Ls the home of Mr. and Mrs. Jeril Ccoper, Sr., in Rising Fawn. Formerly the-, old Hale home where J. P. W. W. Hale married so many couples, the house was rented in apartments until the Coopers bought it last year. Besides painting the outside and Inside, numerous repairs have been made and the grounds landscaped. The house is trimmed with “gingerbread” which was so popular during the eighteenth century, and a large porch. Valley Rose is the shade chosen by Mrs. Charles Kirk for her living room. She is also having her kitchen remodeled by putting up sheet rock which she will paint. The colonial-style home of the Warner Piersons is receiv¬ ing a coat of white paint which looks very lovely. Rising Fawn is indeed improving and paint¬ ing up. They are out for the grand prize in this year’s Im¬ provement Contest, so keep your eye on them! The Rising" Fawn Community Park is dotted with colorful flowers along the driveway. All during this summer, commu¬ nity ladies are expected to set out plants as they have them, so next year many beautiful flowers will be in bloom. An idea many of us could use was carried out by the Carroll Cranes, who live near the Ala¬ bama State Line. When the 16 x 16 government buildings were cn sale at Fort Oglethorpe, they bought one, painted it, di¬ vided it into a living room, bed¬ room and kitchen and lived in it comfortably. Recently, they added two rooms to it and be¬ sides providing more living space the house is cute as a picture past card. The Milt Wilsons are remod¬ eling their kitchen, adding mere windows, new cabinets and an improved drainage system.They have also put in new hall floor¬ ing. $1'J00 DOLLAR CASH . . . (Continued from first page) Mr. DeLoach commented. “We urge all eligible counties to participate.” Mr. Lufburrow said details of the contest may be obtained from county rangers or forest¬ ers or by contacting the Geor¬ gia Forestry Association, 905 C. & S. National Bank Building, Atlanta. “The association is suggest¬ ing that county contest coun¬ cils be formed promptly,” Mr. Lufburrow said. “This group will be composed of represent¬ ative local citizens, officials and businessmen and civic lead¬ ers. The county council will have full responsibility for con¬ ducting the local fire preven¬ tion effort and for deciding how the winning county ddll spend the prize mohey for a civic or charitable project of county¬ wide benefit.” In addition to the $1,000.00 first prize, certificates will be presented to the five runner-up counties. “Most of Georgia’s costly woods fires are locally caused and this is an effort to focus lo¬ cal attention on this local prob¬ lem,” Mr. Lufburrow continued. "Official Georgia Forestry Com mission records for the contest period will be compared with records for the previous year by the judges. “While the main factors in the judging will be the reduc¬ tion in the number of fires and acres burned, miscellaneous factors such as weather condi¬ tions, volunteer assistance in fighting fires and accuracy of fire records will be considered."
