Sadly missed by Daddy and little Sister. (paid) Tribute To Purdle Slayton By his neice Rosalie Jenkins Vanderburg Again I say 'goodbye to another relationship which has spanned almost half a century. Uncle Purdle Slaton has lain down for his final rest. None of us are perfect and all of us have faults, but if Uncle Purdle ever did an absolute wrong, or any completely mean thing, or if he ever treated anyone unfair¬ ly, I was never aware of it, nor did 1 ever hear of it. Also he could back up anything he believed in and would stand pat for what he thought was fair and square. And he could tell you so, sometimes, with a chuckle or a grin on his face and a twinkle in his eye. He had a great sense of humor which I admired tremend¬ ously and I always felt better for being in his presence. The first things 1 remember about Uncle Purdle were his smile and his handshake. He almost al¬ ways seemed to wear that smile and it was sort of a guidepost of welcome at his home. And when he shook hands with people, they knew he meant it. None of those weak, limp shakes for him! When¬ ever he shook hands, he got a firm hold and gave a grip not likely to be forgotten and indeed I shall never forget the smile or the handshake. I can visualize him in Heaven, walking around searching for his loved ones who are already there and I can see him giving them his great big smile and his wonderful, firm handshake when he finds them. BUY U. S. SAVING BONDS THE IjaOE COUNTY TIMES: TRENION, GEORGIA, THURSDAY, JUNE 27, 1957 large room contains a place wall of moss-covered moun¬ tain stone, space for the TV and air-conditioner, and plenty of room for games or just relaxing. Betty has done an unusual and beautiful wall mural in white ceramic tile against which has been etched a realistic Western scene. Since this is right in line with her hobby, she got twice as much satisfaction out of creating an interesting decoration for the new room. The mural was fired in sections and was more than an overnight job, but it is w'ell worth the effort. Since Betty started it, she has been asked to do others for friends. The fireplace wall is opposite the outside door, and houses a large barbecue, storage and wood space (which is refillable from outside) as w’ell as fireplace and stone counter for the television set. A snack bar will be built into one corner of the room of used brick and glass blocks with colored lighting. Betty plans to do some recipe tiles to hang on the wall here. In the opposite cor¬ ner under the high windows, a booth, upholstered in leather, will be built by Dudley, w’ho has done all the previous work on the new room. The walls have been painted sandalwood, and since the Cure- tons have not found a pattern they especially like in tile, the floor will be covered with em¬ bossed inlaid linoleum. About two summers ago,, they built an outdoor grill and more recently have poured a concrete patio around it, done in a block effect. Since this is handy to the swimming pool, it has been a very popular spot. Among those w T ho are follow'- ing the cult of sun-seekers are the George Getters, who built a private 1 lake sometime ago and now have rigged up a driving range for the man of the house. A 1 ong-range golf enthusiast, George keeps several irons handy for visiting cronies. Those who are taking to the creek and river banks for a try for those big fellow's are count¬ less, but you can always count on Jackie and Ray Smith, Claude Harrison, Tommy Sims and Mau¬ rice Rogers going fishin gon week¬ ends or Wednesday afternoons. Family picnics are always the “thing” on Sundays, and one can usually find quite a few acquain- tences at Cloundland Canyon State Park, Chickamauga Lake— where James Ryan and John Tatum have been glimpsed water skiing—or DeSoto Park, One thing’s for certain—sun and fun go hand in hand and not many local folks are going to shy away from it. County Agent’s Column By L. C. ADAMS Dade County Sheep Producers who took advantage of the wool pool which was held at Calhoun, Ga. gained f>c to 10c per pound. Better prices for wool are ex¬ pected due to the fact that the buyers are purchasing in large lots. Shipping cost is less and labor and grading is reduced where they are able to buy 10,000 to 20,000 pounds of wool that is already graded and bagged. Sheep producers in Dade Coun¬ ty will be interested in the prices paid at the wool pool. Different grades offered and prices received are listed below. Medium clear, 63.12 per pound; Medium light burry, 58.12 per pound; Medium - medium burry, 53.12 per pound; Medium hard burry, 50.00 per pound; Medium black, 55.00 per pound; Medium dead, 55.00 per pound; Medium lamb, 58.00 per pound; Medium tags, 15.00 per pound; Fine and Zs blood elear, 64.07 per pound; and Medium clear gray, 58.00 per pound. This sale will be made an an¬ nual affair if the producers of wool are interested in promoting the organization and will express their wishes. At the present time the Agricultural Extension Serv¬ ice in individual counties and the Livestock Marketing Specialist from the state extension office are actively engaged in • organiz¬ ing the sales. Valuable assistance w r as re¬ ceived this year from sheep grow¬ ers. Roy W. Moore from Dade County served as chairman of the sale committee and w r as very ac¬ tive in promoting interest among other sheep producers. He has ex¬ pressed a desire for a continua¬ tion of this pool and is urging other producers in Dade County to join in with other sheep pro¬ ducers in this section. Don’t forget the Sunday baseball game at Rising Fawn and the big barbecue with other events at Davis.
