Corporal White
Writes "News” Letter
EDITOR, The News:
An incident which might inter
est you and your readers in Chat
tooga county was the Georgia Daj
celebration given by the USO in
Mineral Wells, Texas, and sponsored
by the people of Georgia for the
Georgians in Camp Wolters, which
took place Wednesday, August 5.
There were all kinds of eats, in
cluding watermellons, candy, etc.
Georgia is well represented here
in Camp Wolters, but as far as I
can find out, I’m the only repre
sentative from Chattooga county.
I received a nice gift from the
State Guard Unit 213, of Menlo, o:
which I am very grateful and wish
to thank them through your paper.
I was inducted into the Army at
Fort McPherson and was sent to
Camp Wolters where I have been
stationed as an instructor in basA
training for new recruits.

Important Notice
To Chattooga Farmers
- We have been advised by the State
Office, that soil-building practice
number 3 in the 1942 Georgia Hand
book will be amended as follows:
“The above seeding rates per
acre may be reduced to 20 pounds
of Austrian winter peas, 15 pounds
of vetch, 10 pounds of clean crim
son clover, if these crops are seed
ed with at least \\ 2 bushels of
oats, 1 bushel of barley, or 3 pecks
of rye. 50 percent by weight of
wheat may be used in the above
mixture provided the wheat used i
is substituted pound for pound for
part of the oats, barley, or rye
and not to the extent that the
land could be classified as devoted
to wheat.”
Triple A furnished Phosphate and
Basic Slag may be used under this
grain-legume mixture. No credit
will be given for the fertilizer, other
'han qualifying the legume crop,
but there will not be a penalty, or
ou be charged double for it as
■Ou would, if you used it under
grain alone.
We have a car load of Basic Slag
ordered for which some of it has
not been applied for by farmers,
md we are looking for it in now.
f you are interested in getting
Basic Slag, please come by the of
ice immediately and sign for it,
■s we will need to place it imme
'iately, when the car arrives.
Basic Slag is just as good and
erhaps better for winter cover
rops as Phosphate. Some farmers
i the county, who have been using
t get better results from Basie
lag than Phosphate.
If you have not already applied
or your Phosphate, it is practi
ally impossible to get it now, as
t takes from sixty to ninety days
‘o get it after ordering, therefore,
f you will take Basic Slag instead.
>nd will come by the office and
sign for it, you can get it within
the next two or three weeks.

J You and We Can Help by Saving: J
To save precious rubber for the war effort, the Di-
£ rector of Defense Transportation issued a general <*
"K order to service industries, which says:
We cannot make more than one stop at each cus
tomer’s residence in any one day. This means ...
to pick up your laundry, your bundle must be ready jL
and available when we-call.
If To delivery your laundry, we must make collections
at the time of delivery.
If these rules are not compiled with, we must post
if pone the delivery or pickup of your laundry until
If the following day. T
We must reduce our truck mileage 25 per cent each T
£ month below what it was the same month last year,
n This mean ... we must reschedule our delivery serv
"F ice in each territory.
*K We’ve already asked your co-operation to help us X"
"K save trucks and tires, in anticipation of the passage
of this delivery curtailment ruling. But, NOW THAT
IT HAS BECOME A GOVERNMENT ORDER, we J
must comply with it.
jf The inconvenience caused by this order will mean a
sacrifice to both of us. But we feel that it is a SMALL T
T SACRIFICE, because it will enable us to CONTINUE J

wreaths, lamenting that he was a
valuable person, giving himself
wholeheartedly in service to the
people of his day.
There has been a source of in
spiration for me to note with in
terest and delight the life and works
of the Reverend Herbert Morgan
for a number of years. I have ap
preciated his great humanitarian,
tender, sympathetic attitude of
concern and active Ministry of help
fulness to the multitudes of needy,
unfortunate, and maladjusted peo
ple all about him in the past and
at the present. There is something
which compells me to admire the
man’s sincerety, purity, honesty,
love for his country, fellow man,
and constant stand for law and
order.
His leadership as a pastor and
i preacher has been, and is remark
| able. His church has grown in
I numbers, interest, and spirituality
under his ministry Then through
his wise foresight, leadership, to
gether with the splendid coopera
tion and loyalty of his people, the
indebtedness of his church and
Sunday school plant has been re
tired. Nobody knows his real work
and worth, more than does his
own congregation, whom he has
served in such a loyal way.
His leadership in civic life has
been and is a blessing and benedic
tion to a multitude of people. Many
of our minds go back through the
months to the snowy and icy win
ter and remember with gratitude
how he went through the bleak,
wintry weather with food, medicine,
fuel and other supplies to many
homes throughout the section,
which meant the difference be
tween suffering and comfort, life
and death. His work with the U. S.
has been outstanding in making
possible the right kind of services,
recreations and influences for our
own sons in the service in the va
rious camps throughout the nation
Then he has given his time, money
and strength to the raising of funds
for the cancer clinics and innumer
able individuals needing medical
services and hospitalization, to
make possible the return of strength
and health. His work in the inter
est of our country has been the
most outstanding. May we picture
for a moment the World War No. 1
from 1914 through 1918. Brother
Morgan was one of the young Amer
icans who went to the front and
offered his life and brain on the
altar for the continuity of Amer
ican liberty, peace and security ■
He bears in his own body today, I
the marks of a good soldier. He j
has been remarkably successful j
in the selling of War Bonds and |
Stamps. In addition, has lent his
time and energy in the work of j
Home Defense. For which services
he has received the rank of Major
as a just and worthy recognition
for services well rendered. Because
of his proven honesty, fairness, and
broad love and concern for one and
all of his countrymen, he has been
honored with the great trust and
responsibility as chairman of the
Chattooga County Draft Board.
MRS. CLAYTON PEACOCK
RESIGNS AS ASSISTANT CLERK
OF LOCAL BOARD
At a recent meeting of the local
Draft Board a resolution of re
grets was passed due to the resig
nation of Mrs. Clayton Peacock,
who has been pleasantly associated
with the Board for six months as
Assistant Clerk.
Mrs. Peacock leaves at an early
date to join her husband, Lieut.

NOTICE
All who are interested in clean
ing off the Garrett cemetery, please

Good stock means more econom- \
ical production and better quality I

Where is a man among our ranks I
who has and is rendering so great]
a service in so many fields and ‘
so many ways? I pay this tribute
of appreciation and affection for
him as a man, as a Christian, as
a preacher, as a citizen, and as a
soldier. The realms of nature could
justly rise up and acclaim that he
is a man, serving well the people of
the land.
