Hughes, a retired
maintenance supervisor at
Riegel Textile Corp., built the
wagon in his hobby shop. *All
my life, my hobby has been
shop,”" he said. *'l built my own
satellite dish and put it in, I
built a motor coach years ago,
and I've put together an awful
lot of stuff over a period of
time.”
He also built his own
workshop, which accom
modates a furnished second
story apartment. "My wife
spends a lot of time ug there
when I'm in the shop,” he said.
NO PROJECTS
Hughes added that
althoué’i he spends most of his
time in his ho,fi)y shop, he has
no special plans or projects to
work on. “‘l'm all the time do
ing something, but I don't
have any big projects going on
now.
CLOTHES COUNT
Like it or not, clothes count
when you are job hunting.
What you wear to an interview
can have a lot to do with
whether you get a job offer or
a letter of rejection, says a
clothing specialist with the
Georgia Extension Service.

herited disease that weakened his heart
muscles and caused wear on his heart,”
he said. "*"He may not have lived another
year."
THE WAR UNDID HIM
“The war was his undoing. If you look
at a picture of him taken hvfi)re the war
and compare it to one taken four years
later, it fi)oks like a 20 to 40 year dif
ference. He looked haggard and worn. He
loved humor and laugiwr. and the war
did away with that."”
Lincoln had also experienced dif
ficulties within his family, including the
death of two of his sons, Edward and
Willie.
"Willie died of pneumonia at age 11,
while they were in the White House,"
Ogletree said. "'Lincoln was never the
same after that. He only had one son to
live to be an adult, Robert Todd, who
later served in two presidential cabinets."
Many people were also unkind to his
wife, Mary, Ogletree said.

“They strut when they hear a
call. The hens are smaller, they
have blue heads, and they
don't strut around.
“When you're in the woods,
shoot only at what you are sure
is a turkey,” Jones said. "'lt's
getting to be a dangerous sport
now, because more people are
getting into it. You might hear
a call or something moving and
think you're sneaking up on
the turkey, when it could be
another hunter. If a high rate
of care is not taken, then you
could have a hunting tragedy."

arents are Mr. and Mrs.
garlton Cargle, Armuchee,
David Brown, Summerville,
and Annette Choate, Summer

ville, and Mrs. Clarice Caldwell,
Valdosta. The great-great
grandmother is Mrs. Elsie
Hanks, Valdosta.
“At the time he lived, there were mix
ed feelings about him,"” he added. *'There
were those who completely despised him,
like the plantation owners who had
slaves. li)ul the slaves idolized him. When
he rode into Richmond, they practically
knelt in front of him.
THE SOUTH'S FRIEND
“I've not received any anti-Lincoln
feelings since I've been impersonating
him,”” Ogletree said. **"Now he's viewed as
the best friend the South had. And if he
had lived, I think that the Reconstruc
tion Egriod would not have been so
rough.
The nation would have been united
casier had Lincoln not been killed, he
said. "I don't think there would have
been all the evils, like the KKK, and
everything would have been bound up
easier and more peacefully. That would
have been his lasting contribution to the
country.”
Ogletree added that performing as
Lim'«t;in in a courtroom gave him an 'at

home' feeling. **Lincoln practiced law for
about 20 years, and it gave me a good
feeling to be in a courtroom; it was only
the second time I've done it in that set
ting.'’
SELF-EDUCATED LEADER
Lincoln became an attorney, even
though he never attended college or law
school. “The total of his schooling was
about 10 months,” Ogletree said. “‘But
he read everything he could get his
hands on, and he taught himself. If ever
there was a self-educated man, it was
Lincoln."
Ogletree sometimes recites part of
Lincoln's Gettysburg Address during his
speech, a work that Lincoln felt was a .
failure. *Only one major newspaper gave
it any kind of good review,” Ogletree
said. *'But it's stronger now than ever,
because of the power of the man, and his
wisdom and knowledge. You can read his
speeches now, and they would still be ap
plicable today."
Bank Stock Splits
The board of directors of
the Farmers and Merchants
Bank, at its March 9 meeting,
authorized a stock dividend to
all shareholders of record as of
that date.
Each shareholder received
one additional share of stock
for each share currently owned.
This transaction represented a
100 percent stock dividend. In
making the announcement to
the stockholders, Chairman
Henry Watson explained that
the additional shares
“represented the growth of the
bank and the continued pro-
gress the bank enjoys.”
This is the second stock
split the board has announced
in the past 10 years and *‘pro
jections are that the bank will
exceed its growth estimates
during 1989, Watson said.
Farmers and Merchants
continues to have record earn
ings and it expects net income
to exceed any previous year in
its 66 year history, Watson
said. "‘The bank's growth is in
dicative of the strong support
received from the community
and reflects the continued pro
sperity of its customers,” he
added.
