Says Poverty Bill Bad Legislation The Editors: I know that, the in¬ tentions of the poverty bill were good, but the more that I come in contact with people who are making themselves available to it the more I am convinced it is the worst legislation for the morals of the people that has been passed in our history.

The Apples Here’s a letter from Wm. H. (Bil) Towles Sr., senior citizen of Jack son, Ga., in which he says, “It has -been some time since I have had the idea that I might have some items of information which I might be able to divulge without the necessity of invoking the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution.” Now it seems that Bill has been in Atlanta observing the trend of the hemline and he says, “I was sit¬ ting in the entrance of Davison's just ‘looking ’em over’ and remem¬ bering a song I heard in the early I teo’s. If it could be applied then, it seems it would be even more I apropos now.” a This is the song that Bill Towles remembered: 1 H Now Eve wasn’t modest till 4 she at that apple, That old apple was to blame; ^ No sooner than she ate it, she felt humiliated, And hid behind the apple tree till darkness came. Now if one little apple made the first girl modest, It ought to work now as well as then; If every mother’s daughter wears her dresses any shorter, They’ll have to pass the apples once again.” I — Atlanta Constitution.

One of the countless reasons why the response to newspaper adver¬ tising is so outstanding is that women EXPECT to see advertis¬ ing in their hometown newspaper — 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 con¬ cluded: “getting a woman to see an advertisement is not enough — A woman pays attention to adver¬ tisements when they’re where she EXPECTS to see them — (in the Cleveland Courier) ...” •V LETTERHEADS ENVELOPES Established 18M t€l 1«L What's Going On In Your White County Schools By Telford Hulsey, Superintendent THE ADVANTAGES OF A SCHOOL SYSTEM'S BEING ACCREDITED BY THE SOUTHERN ASSOCIATION OF COLLEGES & SCHOOLS The Southern Association of Colleges and Schools is a regional educational agency which accred¬ its public and private schools in 11 southeastern states. This asso¬ ciation was organized to IMPROVE educational conditions in the South and bring closer relations between schools and colleges. The association has operated in the belief that education should be continuously concerned with the changing needs df its people. Programs of the association have inincluded studies in educational research, graduate study, prepara¬ tion of teachers, the improvement of instruction, and studies of the factors that affect the region. The first step in school evalu¬ ation and eccreditation involves concise determination and state¬ ment of the school’s purpose. Af¬ ter this purpose is defined, then it is possible to select criteria which is indicative of the soundness of the school’s operations and accom¬ plishments. The central purpose of evalua¬ tion and accreditation involves a determination df a level of quali¬ ty of excellence in the school pro¬ gram. The degree of excellence which a school shall attain to hold membership in the association is determined by measuring its pro¬ gram in terms of general purpose deemed sound for schools in the southern region and in terms of certain requirements necessary if this purpose is to be accomplished by a school. Accreditation is sought on a VOLUNTARY basis. The attain¬ ment of accredited status certifies that the institution has met the standards established by the as¬ sociation. The White County Schools are planning to seek this accreditation. This seeking of ac¬ creditation will enable the schools to seek improvement and try to meet the minimum standards of the association. These minimum standards which the school must meet will require improvement in several areas of our school program. These stan¬ dards involve requirements per¬ taining to the Superintendent of Schools, the use of community re¬ sources, schedules folr teachers and students, the Board of Edu¬ cation, the Curriculum of the schools, qualification of teachers and other school personnel, the physical plant of the school (buil¬ ding and playground), school en¬ vironment, financial support and experimental programs. If we are able to meet the standards in each of the above areas, we will be progressing to¬ ward higher degrees of quality and excellence in our schools which we have attained heretofore. We need your help and cooper¬ ation to gain accreditation and I know we will get all we ask for. PI NET WOODS PETE Says: DEAR MISTER EDITOR: Something I read in last Friday’s Journal distrubed me. It was about the Fulton County war on poverty. The article, putting $13 million as the annual budget of Economic Opportunity Atlanta, Inc. said that, when fully developed, full-time and part-time employes would be paid $6,323,292, or nearly 50 per cent of the entire budget. About 75 per eent of this payroll would go to “staff, executives, social work¬ ers and the like. The remaining 25 per cent would find its way to the poor in the form of pay-checks.” There’s been talk of the pov¬ erty war creating a huge bureauc¬ racy. This set-up indicates the poor will get- what’s left AFTER the horde of new job holders has been paid. i Yours truly, PINEY WOODS PETE. — Atlanta Journal N ATIOII At 7 |0t TO UAL A lit // Not Dead . . But Sleepeth // A reader found this old poem and , thought , Augustans joy it, might en¬ since Benjamin H. Mobley of Cleveland, Ga., its author, obvious¬ ly referred to this city: Where Savannah’s waters flow Murmering neath Augusta’s tow ers; Where in softness, zephyrs blow Mingled with the breath of flow¬ ers; Neath the blue of Southern Skies Mid where splendid marbles rise; Under the grass, low under the sod, Waiting the waking trump of God, My mother’s mold’ring body lies. No stately shaft of marble, there, To mark her lonely grave is found; No mausoleum of beauty rare, Only an humble grassy mound. This, raised slightly ’bove the earth, Marks the silent sleeper’s berth. There, under the grass, low un¬ der the sod, Waiting the waking trump of God, My mother’s mold’ring body lies. What of these, though none there be, To mark where that form lies? She’s mother, all the same to me, The sweetest name beneath the skies. Thine could not be less to thee. Nor mine could be no more to me. Yes, under the grass, low under the sod, Waiting the waking trump of God My mother’s mold’ring body lies. It seems ’twas only yesternight, When down the reaping angel sped, And with her soul, on pinions light, Back to the throne of God he fled. With aching hearts, with tearful eyes, We laid her body where it lies. There under the grass low un¬ der the sod Waiting the waking trump of God My mother’s molding body lies. Where perennial waters flow, Murmuring 'neath celestial tow-' ers; Over fields ambrosial blow Zephyrs scented with breath of flowers-, Under the smile of fairer skies Where no pall of mourning lies, In the light of heaven, under the smile o*f God, Far, far above the earthly clod My mother’s sainted spirit lies. — Augusta Herald National Newspaper Week If any American institution is entitled to sing its own praises .... all questions of false modesty aside — it is the American newspaper. And National Newspaper Week, which is to be observed October 10 through 16, provides that op¬ portunity. There is nothing quite like the U. S. press. In many countries, the newspapers are propaganda organs of government and willingly or unwillingly abide by the wishes and orders 01 those in political pow¬ er. In others, a few papers of vast circulation blanket their countries, and there is little exchange of varying views. In others, corruption and venality have destroyed the public’s faith in the worth and honor of its press. Here, however, the newspaper, with few exceptions, has been faith¬ ful to its trust. It has stood for that in which it believes, regard¬ less of the shifting winds of poli¬ tics and of the pressures of pow¬ er. It stands, however difficult it may be at times, for the freedom of the press and of the right to and advocate policies and it considers vital to the public interest. We have, of course, newspapers great circulation and internation¬ al prestige. And we also have—of the utmost importance — thou¬ sands of smaller newspapers, week¬ and dailies, which serve their and their audience in a way nothing else can. These are, in its own independent way, guardians of a free United States. w_-____ w - t .
