The Upward Thrust
of Progress ...
Wherever machines chatter and girders mount
upward to the sky, you will find electricity hard
at work. For every year Georgia has discovered
greater use for this versatile servant.
To meet your ever-growing demand, the Georgia
Power Company has budgeted nearly $72 million
for its own expansion program in 1962— almost
$284,000 each working day. Such an expenditure
follows our policy of anticipating and providing
for your needs in advance.
Watch, then, for signs of growth in Georgia.
Watch, too, for Georgia Power Company construc
tion. For where you see our work in progress,
there you will find increased payrolls, more taxes
for the state, and more power to serve you.

Valentine Tea
The Home Economics Depart
;ment of Wheeler County High
I School was the setting of a love
ly Valentine tea and program
presented by the Future Home
makers of America.
The business meeting was
called to order by Alice Hamil
ton, president, after which Sue
Windham gave a very inspiring
devotional. The minutes were
read and approved. Plans for
attending District II Spring Meet
ing which will be held in Dub
lin March 3 were discussed.
j The program, a panel discus
ision on the “Potential Abilities
|of Teenagers for a Successful
Home”, was presented by the fol
lowing: Mrs. G. W. Lancaster, Mr.
Billy Lowe, Alice Hamilton,
Cheryl Elton, Janice Browning,
and Judy Rhodes. Mrs. Lancas
ter, moderator for the group, led i
a very interesting discussion on |
such topics as the ideal home, i
the little things that count in!
i life, the importance of a good,
'physical education program, ■
I teenage marriage, and recogniz- j
| ing and honoring the decisions I
I of one’s parents.
It was decided that tolerance |
and understanding were two of I
the most important ingredients
in making an ideal home.
It was also decided that “The
I Little Things of Life” add up
' and are of as much importance
i as the big things.
Mr. Lowe, director of Physical
| Education, presented to the group
I his opinion on the importance of
| physical .education in building
i character and sportsmanship.
Even though in some cases
i teenage marriages do work, a
I person should “shop around” a
■long time and give himself time
|to mature enough to make this
I important decision, sensibly and
| not rush into something that
' you’ll have to live with a long,
! long time.
The panel agreed that there
i are times when parents should
Isay no, and that instead of get
; ting angry and pouting, teenagers
i should understand and honor
i these decisions.
The meeting was adjourned
j with the F.H.A. creed after which
j delicious refreshments were
; served to the group.
i Red fruit punch and cupcakes
j iced with vanilla cream icing
I topped with dainty candy hearts
i were served from a lovely table
। covered with a beautiful cut
i work cloth. The table was cen
! tered with a beautiful arrange

Marketing Orders and
Agreements
We are hearing lots concerning
marketing orders and agreements.
You may be confused about just
what each is designed to do.
A federal marketing agreement
is voluntary. It is a contract en
tered into by the Secretary of
Agriculture with handlers of a
particular commodity, including
producers uso engaged. Only
those who sign it are bound by
it.
A federal marketing order is I
mandatory. It is issued by the
Secretary of Agriculture and is
binding on all handlers of the
commodity concerned in the spe
cified production or marketing
area, regardless of whether they
have signed an agreement.
This is a very brief description
of the federal market agreements
and orders.
The trouble with the cronic
borrower is that he always keeps
everything but his word.
i graduated from the Academy of
1 Richmond County. He is now a
I senior at the Lumpkin School of I
Law at the University of Geor-1
gia and will receive his LL.B.'
and 8.8.A. degrees in June. He |
is a member of Sigma Chi fra
ternity of w'hich he served as
treasurer; Phi Delta Phi legal
fraternity, and Scabbard and
Blade honorary military frater
nity. He has been admitted to the
Georgia Bar and has been com
missioned a Second Lieutenant
in the United States Army.
Mr. Coleman is the grandson of
Mrs. Henry S. Wimberly and the
late Mr. Wimberly, of Scotland,
and his paternal grandparents are
William C. Coleman and the late
Mrs. Coleman, of Marietta.
The wedding will take place
on March 17 at the Peachtree
Road Methodist Church, Atlanta.
I Kite Flying Can
Be Dangerous
Kite flying, a (traditional March
activity in this area, can be ex
tremely dangerous, according to
H. L. Boyd, of Mcßae, Georgia;
Power Company District Mana-'
ger, who this week urged par
ents to take every precaution to
assure that children fly kites
■ safely.
Mr. Boyd suggested the follow
ing rules for safety in kite flying:
1. Don’t fly kites in rainy
weather or thunderstorms.
2. Don’t fly kites near power
lines.
3. If a kite becomes entangled
in electric power lines, leave it
alone. Do NOT attempt to get it
down.
4. Don’t use metal on kites,
kite strings, or kite tails.
5. Instead, use dry cotton string
and dry cloth in the tails.
6. Don’t dash across streets or
highways while kite flying.

Veterans News
Many veterans with National
Service Life Insurance (GI) may
still buy a low cost total-disa
bility income rider for their poli
cies, Georgia Veterans Director
Pete Wheeler said this week.
The rider would pay the in-
I sured veteran $lO per month -for ■»»
' each SI,OOO worth of insurancetif •»*.?'
he is totally disabled ’before W”
reaching age 60. Veterans over w»
that age cannot buy the rider; ■
Veterans whose nearest age is
less than forty can add the rider
to their policies without a physi
cal examination, Wheeler said.
Those over 40 will have to be
examined.
The rider was first offered on
the policies in 1958. Since that
time over 800.000 of the 4.5 mil
lion NSLI policy holders have
added the rider to their insur
ance, Wheeler added.
For assistance with any GI in
surance problem or for advice
and help on any veterans’ bene
fit, veterans should contact their ■
nearest office of the Georgia De
partment of Veterans Service.
Some 215,000 Georgians have
home food freezers, according to
Miss Nelle Thrash, Extension
food preservation specialist.
