P.-T. A. Launches

needed for putting across the
expanded educational program.
Meaning of Foundation
The objectives of the Minimum
Foundation covers every need of
the state’s school program. In its
broadest terms it sums up as
follows: A competent teacher foi
every school room a decent class
room; safe transportation for
every child that lives beyond
walking distance, an adequate
supply of textbooks and other
learning aids and a minimum
school year of 180 days.
Local Benefits
What the Minimum Foundation
Program of Education will mean
to Chattooga County in dollars
and cents when it it put on the
“must” list of the 1949 General
Assembly of Georgia in this:
(These figures are based on
1947 revenues from all sources
and as the County during the
present school year has added
nine teachers to its rolls, will in
the passage of this measure be
higher.)
Teachers’ salaries, $250,240.00;
Administrative Salaries, Travel
of Supervisor, visiting teacher,
county librarian, all principals,’
supplement and county superin
tendent, $19,195.00; Current ex
pense ($3.00 per teacher in the
school system for equipment),
$33,300.00; Current capital outlay
($2.00 per teacher for a building
program), $22,200.00; Transpor
tation (for safe busses-for fewer
trips for each bus and prevent
the now too early rising of the
rural children), $39,428.11; total,
$364,363.11. Change back from
local ability level (this means
County’s ability to support its
schools), $21,727.00; total state
funds that Chattooga County
would receive, $342, 636.11.
Under the present set-up the
County now receives from the
State $199,920.28 under the Mini
mum Foundation program the
actual increase to the county
would be $132,715.83.
Using the present enrollment
of the county’s schools which
numbers 4028 pupils, the cost per
child for the current year is
approximately $49.63. The Foun
dation program would increase
this to approximately $85.00 per
child each school year.
No More School Bond Issues
When the Minimum Founda
tion Program of Education for
the state has been passed and
put into operation it will mean
that Chattooga County will never
again find it necessary to vote
school bonds for school buildings
and equipment. It will mean
more teachers for our system at
salaries that will induce them
to stay in the system instead of
acceping teaching positions in
other states where they are
guaranteed a just and equitable
compensation.
Greatest Responsibility
The State of Georgia’s great
est responsibility is the education
of its people and only through
the medium of the Minimum
Foundation Program can this
responsibility be met. Every par
ent is urged to contact their rep
resentative and solicit his sup
port of his Foundation Program.
If the people of this County
want their children, their handi
capped, their adults, and their
veterans to receive the instruc
tion that is their educational
right and if they want their
schools staffed with competent
teachers, the citizens of this
county must insist on its rep
resentative fighting for the
passage of this measure, educa
tional leaders state.

FORMER SUMMERVILLE BOY IS WED

The announcement of the

I
Louisa's Lelier
Dear Louisa:
I have a very peculiar problem
I have been in love with a boy
ever since I was thirteen years
old. We have been very close
friends for a year and a half
when he asked me for a date.;
After that, he stood me up
several times but I would always
took him back. After we had
been going together for over two
years he bought me a beautiful
dinner ring for Christmas.
About two months after that
he started going with one of my
girl friends. He keeps coming
back to our house, with the ex
cuse of wanting to see my father,
but I really think he wants to
see me. I would like to know!
hew I could make him prove
that he does love me.
G. H.—Va.
Answer:
I do not see why he has to
have an excuse to come back
to see you, and it seems to me if
he were in love with you he
would keep on dating you. Os
course, there is a possibility that
he is not ready to get married
and'he thought the two of you
were getting too serious, and that
it was better to stop going to
gether so much until you were
older and he was better able to
take care of a wife.
However, most girls fool them- j
selves if they think that the boys
who stop dating them are still in !
love with them, but for some
mysterious reason start going
with other girls. They usually j
want a change and there is!
nothing mysterious about that.
My advice to you is to stop
brooding over him and get inter
ested in other people. That will
bring him back as quickly as
anything you can do if he is
reallv in love with you.
LOUISA
Dear Louisa:
I am a girl of 17 and still going
to school. I am in love with a boy
and he says he loves me. but he
married another girl. He still
likes to take me out. Should I
go with him?
Answer:
Os all foolish people, the young |
girl who runs around with a mar- |
ried man is the prize simpleton. ;
Nine times out of ten he is just
out for a big time, and if hej
should happen to divorce his wife |
and marry the girl, what has she i
got? Nothing but a poor stick of i
a man who, if he is willing to j
betray his first wife for a young
er girl, is not likely to be very
true to Number Two if he feels
like straying again.
Refuse to have anything to do
with him.
LOUISA.

VALUE OF A SMILE
Here’s an incident illustrating
what a smile —even a wooden
smile—can do for you.
Ron M. Helmer, of the Manu
facturers Life Insurance Co.
; Calgary, Canada, was not the
smiling type. He says that as he
looks back now he knows that
his face was habitually smooth,
smile-less.
His curiosity was aroused one
day by reading something about
the value of a smile. Sounded like
a silly remark! But it stuck in
his memory; stuck so hard and
fast that he couldn’t loosen it.
finally, just as a matter of curi
osity—and to prove that the fel
low who wrote that nonsense did
so because he needed something
to write about— he decided to
make a test.
When he got down to his office
the next morning and met the
elevator starter face to face, hp
stretched his mouth and gave;
forth a wooden smile. The ele
vator man looked a bit surprised
but he responded with a smile
which was a little less wooden
for his mouth had'been stretched j
into smiles before.
But somehow that smile of Mr.;
Helmer’s, wooden as it was, did j
something for him, made him
feel a little bit lighter about the j
heart, and that lightness had an j
effect on him all day long.
The next day he again smiled |
at the elvator starter, and the j
telephone operator. Felt pretty;
good all day. He tried it on his
associates; they smiled back at;
him. though some of them glanc
ed at him suspiciously. It was in
teresting to watch the reactions

The groom is a brother of Mrs.

j of the different people he smiled
at
He tried smiling at himself in
| the mirror as he shaved. This
was easy; a man shaving himself
| is a humorous sight.
But from that forced habit of
j smiling Mr. Helmer learned how
|to really smile, and he says it
| saved him from developing into
| a sour-puss and made him a
friendly, almost jovial person
And now that his face knows the
| pathway to smiles, he really feels
those smiles. He says to tell you
to smile when troubles beset you
I Force smiles if you must, but
| smile! Sooner or later the smil
ing habit is going to keep you
out of a lot of trouble.
Easy Does It
By Helen Hale
If you have only a few leftover
: vegetables, these can easily be
turned into a soup by using a
thin cream sauce with pureed
vegetables. If you want to save
time, add the vegetables to can
ned chicken or mushroom soup.
When you buy a boned or a
rolled roast, don’t forget to ask
the butcher for the bones which
have been removed. The bones
plus a few greens can be made
economically into an excellent
soup for cold weather meals.
Leftover vegetables juices can
|be extended with tomato juice
! and simmered with a few herb?
;or a slice of onion and bayieaf
for flavor, thus making delicious
1 soups easily.

CLEANLINESS OF GRAPES
