raising purposes.
“When January 31 has pass
ed,” Mr. Hammond said, ‘we will
know just how well equipped we
will be for the hot polio months
of summer time. Let us not for
get that this 18-day drive must
produce results sufficient to pro
vide care for all those who may
be stricken during the next
twelve months period.”
The local March of Dimes
chairman appealed to all holders
of coin cards to return them
with their voluntary contribu
tions at the earliest possible
moment. Coin collectors, he add

Ga. Stale Employes
Musi Be Courteous,
Neulral-McLennan
ATLANTA , (GPS) Georgia’s
3,700 state employes under the
Merit System have been warned
that they had better watch their
step on two counts public
courtesy and political neutrality
—or they will lose their jobs.
This warning came in a reso
lution passed unanimously at
the initial meeting the other
day of the new State Personnel
Board, .administrator of the
State Personnel Board, admini
strator of the State Merit System
covering the Departments of
Health, Labor and Welfare.
In making public the resolu
tion, Vice Chairman Alex Mc-
Lennan, promnient Atlanta at
torney and Gov. Herman Tal
madge’s Chief-of-Staff, said that'
it has been brought to the i
board’s attention that a source I
of greatest complaint under the 1
Merit System is the practice of
some employes in the State Wel
fare Department “insulting the
old people who call for their
benefit checks.”
“This will not be tolerated.”
Mr. McLennan asserted. “Such
persons will be fired.”
In the field of politics, he said
that it had been brought to the
attention of the board tha in
one insance a welfare office was
used as political campaign head
quarters for one faction in the
county.
Mr. McLennan did not name
the county nor the worker in
volved, but said that “she would
be fired.”
Meanwhile, a move to put oth
er state departments under the
Merit System is reportedly under
consideration by the Talmadge
administration.
Auditorium to Be
Ready by March 1
County School Superintendent
C. B. Akin disclosed this week
that it was expected the Sum
merville High School Auditorium
would be ready for occupancy by
March 1.
The new building, a $35,000
structure, will seat approximate
ly 800 persons, Mr. Akin said. It
is 50 x 118 feet.
“A heavy responsibility rests
on the shoulders of everyone in
our community,” Mr. Hammond
said. “That responsibility is to
see to it now, that every possible
1 aid can be given to all our boys
and girls next summer, should
infantile paralysis strike at our
homes. We hope we may escape
this year. But hope alone is a
fool’s weapon. We know greater
contributions to the .National
Foundation for Infantile Paral
ysis are needed in its .fight to
help where polio has stricken, to
help those who were stricken in
prior years and to carry on the
important research whitti event
-1 rally will erase infantile paraly
sis from the list of dangers fac
ing our children.”
Only four more days are left
to live up to those responsibili
ties, the March of Dimes chair
man pointed out. His appeal to
cur readers is: “Give to the
March of Dimes—this year give
; 50% MORE to this’great cause.”

Employment Office
To Aid Farmers
The Georgia State Employ
ment Service of the Georgia De
partment of Labor are
ing their efforts to secure farm
labor, both seasonal and non
seasonal, for the farm owners
in Chattooga County.
They have a Representative
in the courthouse in Summer
ville each Thursday between 10
and 2 o’clock for the purpose of
receiving orders from the land
owners and applicantions from
those seeking crops.
During the war years, farm
labor was handled by the Agri
cultural Department. In January
of last year this activity was
turned back to the State Em
ployment Service who have made
creditable strides in their efforts
to help with the farm labor pro
gram. The results have passed
the expectations of this Agency.
In addition to the weekly ser
vice, the Rome office will have
a man contact the various land
owners one or more days each
week for the purpose of discuss
ing labor requirements and at
tempting to get the employer
and worker together. This is a
worth while effort that should
be of great value to this area.
Interested people are request
ed to contact the Georgia State
Employment Service in Rome or
their Representative at the
courthouse each Thursday in
Summerville.

Aurora Borealis
Explains Baffling
Lights in North
Aurora Borealis, better known
as the Northern Lights, caused
I a sensation Monday night by it’s
' appearance in this area.
Many residents of Summerville
and vicinity thought that some
town north of here must be afire
and the “red lights in the sky”
were quite baffling until explain
ed as the Aurora Borealis.
The light began to flash about
8 p. m. and continued until well
after 9 p. m. and although var
ious cities north of here reported
the lights were various colors,
only a deep red was visible here.
The phenomenon was reported
by seven Southern states. The
Coast Guard at New Smyrna
Beach, Fla., said a ship 200 miles
i out in the Atlantic and another
in the Gulf reported seeing the
lights.
A Tennessean described them
as having a greenish hue at
times and looking like a “false
dawn.”
Weathermen explain that the
northern lights are caused by
electrical disturbances in the
I late winter or spring.
Some reported that this was
the greatest display in this sec
tion in 40 years.
