Ellis Arnall, just returned from nearly three weeks in Hawaii, repeated Friday he would accept a real draft to run for governor in 1966, and added: “If I run I’ll be elected." Freedom To Shop Around Hart Buck, in a work entitled “Freedom to Shop Around” writes: “The principle which enables con sumers to get the most of what they want is the principle of the free market. The heroine of the free market is the typical Queens¬ way housewife who will go out of her way rejoicing to buy a box of detergent two cents cheaper. “Such an opportunity our heroine is glad to discover by shopping around. She would most vocally resent any restriction on her free¬ dom to shop around. Without this vital freedom, all other freedoms — worship, speech, press, assemb¬ ly, and so on — are shadowy, if not impossible." Scotland's Land Tithe By John Connell , Special fo The Christian Science Monitor GLASGOW Scotland may soon get rid of its ancient sys¬ tem of land levies which has discouraged home ownership since the Middle Ages. The payment of feus, or tithes, is reaping a modern whirlwind of opposition from Scottish home buyers. The government is investigating this landowners’ practice of charg¬ ing annual duties on land they sell for building purposes. The levies are held to be completely unjust and retarding to the coun¬ try’s homebuilding industry. Annual feus in Scotland are reckoned to be worth 4,000,000 pounds ($11,200,000) annually to landowners. Many young married couples setting up home complain that the feus are a serious ob¬ stacle in buying houses. Feu-duty was ended in England in 1290, but Scots feu-law has re¬ mained just the same as it was when it was operated by the land owners in the Middle Ages. The churches, traditionally land custodians, have inevitably be¬ come involved in keeping feu-duty alive. Many clergymen admit that church tithes of this nature spell the difference between financial poverty and prosperity for many Christian groups. The Church of Scotland has feu assets of 2,000,000 pounds and an annual duty income of 123,000 pounds. Many private landowners in Scotland are known to make con¬ siderable incomes from feus which have been collected for genera¬ tions. The landowners maintain that improvements to property by them¬ selves can only be met from a system involving some kind of tax¬ ation. But many prospective house buyers in Scotland see no reason why they should be penalized for Centuries, fm imt What's Going On In Your White County Schools By Telford Hulsey, Superintendent SUMMER READING PROGRAM — I visited the elementary school where Mrs. Clara Hulsey has her summer reading class last week.

MY GEORGIA lonesome for my Georgia And all the treasures there; long for golden sunshine And balmy atmosphere; like to hear the purring Of sleepy southern drawl; thrill to hear the greeting, “Howdy, folks, how y’all?” like to see some cotton fields With powder puffs of white; like to hear the spindles Of cotton mills at night; like to taste raw peanuts As they come right off the vine; like to smell some rosin As it oozes from the pine hungry for some cornbread That just melts right in your mouth; Some good old crisp fried chicken Like they cook it ’way down South; Some ham and grits and gravy And some gool old Brunswick Stew Some turnip greens and fatback And some southern barbecue. I miss my many kin folk And their gracious loving ways; I miss the quaint old customs Handed down from by-gone days; I miss the magic tonic Of cool shade and fragrant Oh, I’m homesick for my Please take me home again. — Judy Switzer Washington, D.

One Aided Girl; Society Is Wrong? The Editors: I read the article about Barbara Iverson (the appar¬ ent victim of a kidnapping in St. Paul, Minn.) The last paragraph denotes something terribly wrong with our society (“All agreed that the car sped away, squealing tires, and that a girl screamed for help but no one notified the authorities”) when people will not go to a precious young girl’s cry for help or even notify the authorities. It is so far from what Christ asked, “Who is my neighbor?” and “Go and do thou likewise in help¬ ing, administering to others.” The Samaritan took his life in his own hands when he did the humane thing. Why shouldn’t we? That last paragraph keeps ringing in my heart. It hurts to know that no one went for help. MRS. S. W. GOODE. Cuhbert, — Atlanta Journal, Why Newspaper Advertising? One of the countless reasons why the response to newspaper advertising is so outstanding is that women expect to see adver¬ tising in their hometown news paper — The Cleveland Courier. This special advantage of The Courier, which we have pointed out so often, is now buttressed by a research project which has concluded: “getting a woman to> see an advertisement is not enough —A woman pays attention to ad¬ vertisements when they’re where she expects to see them —(in The Cleveland Courier—) otherwise she is likely to ignore them.”
