12 Easy Rules For Raising A
Juvenile Delinquent
WANT TO be sure your child|
will become a juvenile delin-|
gquent? The Houston, Tex., police |
department has a list of 12 rules |
for raising delinquents. The list!
has become famous because it
has been widely reprinted around !
the country. i
Here’s the 12 rules, in case you |
want to see how you are measur
ing up. 2
1. .Begin with infancy to give
the child everything he wants.,
In this way he will grow up be-|
lieving the world owes him a
living. |
2. When he picks up “bad”
words or “dirty” words, laugh at!
him. That will make him think
he is “cute.” He will gun off and
pick up some other words that
will blow the top off your head. |
3. Never give him any spiritual
training until he is 21, and then .
let him decide for himself. By!
the same logic, never teach him
the @English language. Maybe
when he is old encugh he will
want to speak Bantu. |
4. Praise him in his presence to
all the neighbors; show how
much smarter he is than the
neighbor’s children. !
5. Avoid the use cf the word
“wrong”. It may develop in the
child a “guilt complex.” This will
prepare him to believe that when
he is punished later on for steai
ing cars or assaulting women that
society is “against him” and that
he is being “persecuted.” ‘
6.. Pick up everything after
him: his shoes, his books, his
clothes. Do everything for him, .
so that he will be experienced in
throwing burdens on others. |
/. Let him read anything he|
wants. Have no concern whatever|
for what goes into his mind. Pro-|
vide him with hygienic cups for| !
his lips, but let his brain drink| ]
out of any dirty container for
words and ideas. i
8. Quarrel frequently in the|
presence of your children. In this;
way: they will be prepared for|
broken homes later cn. ‘

This dessert is wonderfully good tasting because of the combina
tion of flavors. The refreshing frozen lemon cream is smooth and
velvety and accents the natural flavor of the fruit. Putting the
fruit on top just before serving so that it is nicely chilled but not
frozen hard enhances the fruity taste.
Frozen Fruited Velvet
1 can (141% oz.) evaporated milk 14 cup canned or bottled
1 cup sugar = lemon juice
1 can (1 Ib.) apricot halves 1 egg white
Mix evaporated milk, sugar and % cup syrup drained from
apricots. Gradually add lemon juice, mixing well. Pour into a re
frigerator tray; freeze until almost firm. Break into pieces and beat
with an electric mixer or rotary beater until smooth. Add egg white
and continue beating until fluffy. Pour into tray and freeze until
firm. Arrange drained apricots over the frozen dessert 10 to 15 min
utes before serving. Eight servings.
Try One of These
A 1-pound can or jar of sliced peaches; fruit cocktail or fruits for
salad; or a 14-ounce can of pineapple chunks or tidbits.

| 10. Satisfy every craving of the

‘thing that has to do with the
' sense of taste and touch, gratify
ing every sensual desire.
11. Take his part against po
| licemen, teachers and neighbors.
}They are all “prejudiced” against
' your child.

trouble, always defend yourself
‘and say, “I never could do any

GOOD FOOD—WITH A VIEW!

f Special Guest Columnist
(Editor’s Note: Mr. Cutting
. appears here for the second
' time as guest columnist. He is
a regular cclumnist for the |
Cleveland Courier. Although he i
~ is not a native of White Coun
ty, he has become thoroughly
familiar with the area in the
few years he has resided there.)
On state route 129, about 23|
miles north of Gainesville or 75|
miles north of Atlanta, August
is a wonderful month for those
whe can stay a couple of days—
or a week. Cleveland, the coun
ty seat in the foot-hills of the
Blue Ridge mountains, is a com
fortable place to be these hot
days because of its high eleva
tion. And then there's still higher
elevation 20 minutes drive to the|
north at Neal's Gap, near Vogel’sl
Park in Chattahoochee National
Ferest, l
As you drive along the roads |
in White county, you’ll see red
clay banks galore. If you look
closely you can see many streaks
of other colors in these banks—
white, blue, yellow, green. These
WHEELER COUNTY EAGLE, ALAMO, WHEELER COUNTY. GEORGIA
colors are very tasty—literally;!
they are minerals. There are so
many minerals in the scil of'
White County that you can SEE
| THEM AT NIGHT! Walk over
bare ground shining a flash-light
| on the ground and you’ll see mil
| lions of specks of reflected lighti
coming from pulverized mica in
) the soil. The reason I say that|
"\ these minerals are tasty is that‘
E}they get into our vegetables as |
"| the vegetables grow in our fieldsf
and gardens and these mountain |
‘| grewn vegetables from White!
‘1 County are so delicious that diet-f
| ing becomes a difficult job. i
li Even more rare than that “Day |
: in June” which the poet wrote !
_labout is a span of days in these |
cool highlands in August. Just|
load some table “nardware” into;
the car, some plates, cups and|
|other things, (Don't forget thei
i salt shaker—if it wcrks!) Drive,
iup here and get off on a back;
road. Stop in where you seej
|’sweet corn growing in a garden
'| and ask to buy some. Stop two
or three places, at farm houses.
Get a few new potatoes and oth
er fresh farm vegetables. You
|won’t mind waiting while ’cheyl
‘pick and dig fresh ones for you.l
IWhen you have several varieties,l
| go to one of our several grocer
ies and buy butter, a little coffee
cream—and some pepper, if you
didn’t think to bring it along.|
Then head north for Vogel’s Park|
or a rcadside picnic ground near-l |
i by Cleveland. Start a fire in thei<
Icook-out spot, boil your fresh::
potatoes, corn and the other vege-|
tables. When they’re done, you’ll| .
soon see why White County isj:
not only scenic but also very de-|:
licicus, and . ..
Y’all come back and have somej
more of our good mountainl;
grown vegetables next year! |

Compact Cars
lßepresent 39.4 Per
Cent New Car Sales
The popularity of compact cars
| continues strong in Georgia, lat
| est registration figures show, the
!Petroleum Council of Georgia
| has reported.
| For the first half of 1961, com
' pacts represented 39.4 percent of
total new car registrations in the
state, official figures show. For
;the like period of 1960, compacts
accounted for 30 percent of the
total, the Council repcrted.
. The registration of all new
| cars, compacts and conventional
- models, is down 24 percent from
1960, representing a difference of
Eslightly more than 18,000 units,
the report shows. Through June
1961 the registration of compacts
is down cnly 40 units from the
same period of last year.
The Council reported that gen
erally the pattern of registration
for June of this year is unchanged
from the preceding month, with
domsetic compacts continuing to
cut into the foreign car and do
mestic conventicmal markets.
Eric Holmes Jr, executive
secretary of the Council, con
tends that the high cost of ope
rating an automobile is reflected
in the trend toward the so-called
economy compact models. “The
high gasoline tax,” Holmes point.
ed cut, “is a major factor in the
operating costs of a car. Ulti
mately this situation is going to
result in decreased state reve
nues from gasoline, as we ap
proach the point of diminishing‘
returns.” |
Gasoline tax in Georgia is 11.2]
cents per gallon, equivalent to
a sales tax of more than 50 per
cent, the Council pointed out.
VA Receives ;
More Money For '
Home Loans In Ga.
| The Veterans Administration!
| has received another three mil-f
| lion dollars for direct veterans’[
.home loans in Georgia, Georgia |
| Veterans Director Pete Wheeler!
| announced today. |
| The appropriation brings to;
' 187,675,000 the amount received:
i?ior this purpose within the pasti
| 30 days, he said. :
A. W. Tate, Manager of the:
’IVA Regional Office in Atlanta,
.| has advised the Department of
| Veterans Service that all veterans |
' who had sought direct VA home |
| lcans prior to Thursday of this!
flweek will receive formal appli-|
i!cation forms by mail within the
*!next seven days. ;
' Not all of the veterans now onj
1 the waiting list will receive loans;
: ‘ immediately. About thirty-five |
-lpercent of them are expected to |
I turn down the loans either be-|
"cause they have already bought |
‘{a home on some other financing!
|plan, because they no longer de~§
Isire to buy a home, or because!
| they cannot pass the credit re-|
quirements. |
| The VA is receiving some 20|
requests a day for direct home|
loans in Georgia, and a substan-!
]tial waiting list has resulted m:
irecent months because funds|
!were not available. The three mil- !’
lion dollars received this week |,
together with the $4,675,000 re
ceived earlier shculd mean Geor- !
gia veterans will get fast service|
'on such applications in the fu-|
ture. |
Direct VA loans are made onlyl'
to veterans residing in counties!
where VA-guaranteed loans are|
not available from regular lend-|
ers. }
Soldiers And Sailors ‘i
Civil Relief Act ;
Os 1940 Explained |
Men entering active military
service as a result of the currentii
crisis will have the protection of |
the Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Civil|
Relief Act, Georgia Veterans Di-|.
irector Pete Wheeler states. :'
!_ The act, passed in 1940 and!
still effective, provides special le-i:
gal protection for members of
the armed forces and their fam-‘j
ilies concerning their civil re-|
sponsibilities and debts, he said.|
The law does not cancel any;
debts or obligations but its pur-|
pose is to grant the serviceman;3
assistance and relief during his!
!duty in such fields as mortgage;i
and note payments, eviction of|
'his dependents for ncn-payment |
of rent, rescission of certain con-l
tracts, repossession of certain
ip'roperty, and protection of in-|
surance investments. I
' In practice, the extent of re-|
lief is left to the discretion of;
local courts, and in the main is|
governed by whether the man's!
ability to meet an obligation is|.
impaired by reason of his being|
in the service. |
Men entering the service should ‘
contact their creditors and dis-|
lcuss a reasonable settlement Off'
}their affairs, Mr. Wheeler said.i‘
If an issue arises after he is on|
active duty, he should request'
the assistance of the Judge Ad'i
Ivocate’s Office for the protection!
jof the act. [
{ It is impossible to state speci- |
ifically what exact relief any man;‘
might receive under the provi-|
!sions cf the ca,t since the discre-;
'tion lies with the local court. The
U. S. Army reports the courts|
!recently have “tended to be lib
eral” in their decisions in behalf:
| of servicemen, while at the same'
!time treating creditors fairly.
VA To Send Out ]
]Form For Change |
|Of Beneficiary |
| Before microfilming pertinent
! information on veterans insur
{ance records for safeguarding
{against disaster, the Veterans
!Administration is asking veteran|
policy-holders to cooperate by
’providing it with up-to-date ben
eficiary listings.
l “Even though veterans may
nct wish to change the benefic
iary or option designations cur
rently on file with the VA, they
are urged to fill out the form|
ibeing sent them and return it|
|to the VA anyway. It'll reassure |
I them that the VA has their cor-|
rect choices and help us greatly,
in the new program,” Harry W.;
Piper, Acting Manager, Veterans:
Administration Regional Office,
Atlanta, said. ;
If, on the other hand, some|
change has occurred in the vet-|
eran’s family so that his designa
ticns should, and have not been!
brought up to date, this is his
chance to make this important|
change, Mr. Piper further ex-l
plained. The form is in dupli
cate and if both copies are re
turned to the VA, they will be
validated and an official copy re
turned to the policyholder for at
i taching to his policy.
| The last beneficiary designa
'tion on record with the VA is
ibinding, therefore, it is impor
| tant that veterans notify the VA
lof any changes or additions of
ibeneficiaries promptly to avoid
'insurance proceeds going to un
' desired beneficiaries.
. Mr. Piper pointed out that, un
!der the law, a last will and testa
‘ment will not serve to make a
change of previously designateo
- beneficiaries for government in
'surance. He added that the law
'gives GI pclicyholders the right
'to change their beneficiaries at
‘any time without the consent of
.the prior beneficiaries.
\ “Microfilming the records so
}compact storage in damage-prool
'depositories along with other
gvital veterans records does not
‘mean that future beneficiary
changes cannct be made at any
itime", Mr. Piper emphasized.
. Since GI policyholders have
[several different options as to
‘how the insurance shall be paid
and making certain that all de
%sired beneficiaries are included
‘becomes somewhat complicated,
veterans with any doubts are
urged to take advantage of the
‘help of experienced people in the
VA offices.
Mimosa Wilt Moves
Into Georgia Doing
Extensive Damage
A dreadful disease called Mim
osa Wilt has done extensive dam
age tc Mimosa trees in Florida,
and is now spreading into Geor
gia.
This is a fungus disease for
which there is no known cure,
and no preventive. It does no
good to cut down infected trees,
and Mimcsa may soon be a cur
iosity, where once they were
common,
The villian’s scientific name is
Fusarium oxysporum pernicio
sum. It is a soil fungus which en
ters the plant through it’s roots.
A tree may die within a month
or a year after infection sets in.
Leaves droop, outer limbs die,
and foilage falls. The vascular
disease clogs the plant’s trans
pcrtation system similar to hard
ening of the arteries in a human
being.
As there is no known cure, all
one can do is stand by as the
Mimosa begins to go. Caution is
advised, however, that the tree
may endure for several years and
the owner should be sure of the
symptom before cutting it down.
Mimosa leaves fold up at night
anyway. Foliage falls in the au
tumn and drought may cause it
to wither.
There is one bright spot. The
U.S. Department of Agriculture
has developed a wilt-resistant
strain of Mimosa which may be
planted as replacements. This
strain has been made resistant in
the same way that people are
vaccinated against diseases. |
AT-FA President
Announces Policy
On Pool Stocks
The redemption pool of the
American Turpentine Farmers
Association, comprised of rosin
pledged under the 1961 Gum Na
val Stores Price Support Pro
gram, will not be made effective
unless and until demand for pocl
rosin develops. In other words,
1961 loan rosin will not be made
available for sale by the Asso
ciation until there is need for
it over and above the demand
for rosin produced and sold
through regular commercial
channels,
This policy has been adopted
pursuant {o action by the Asso
ciation Board of Directors to fur
ther supplement the supply and
price stabilization program ear
lier inaugurated by the Associa
tion.
The Association plans to take
such further and decisive action
as may be required from time
to time to make its stabilization
program completely effective, in
cluding the purchase of gum in
any area where producers are
‘not receiving the full benefit of
‘the Association’s efforts to im
prove the situaticn of its mem
ibers‘
~ The full cooperation of each
producer-member is required in
‘all respects to achieve our ob
jectives, both as to placing addi
‘tional rosin in the loan if such
‘action is needed, and as to any
‘individual redemptions that may
'be contemplated by prcducers,
either by themselves or by oth
ers who may act in their behalf.
‘The Association will see to it
‘that its members are currently
land fully informed at all timesl
