National Hospiial Week
“Your Hospital — City of Care” is the 1967 theme ofi
National Hospital Week. May 7-13.
Pointing to the variety of essential skills and services 1
that make up today’s modern hospital, the Georgia Hospital
Association urges attention to these “cities within cities. (
Over 30,000 people are employed in Georgia’s 200 hos-l
pitals, the Association reports, and “far more are needed.” I
GIIA President W. Daniel Barker, says “nursing is now j
attracting both young men and young women tor careers;
with unlimited opportunities for advancement.”
The Association reports that nearly 2,000 vacancies pres-'
ently exist for registered nurses in Georgia. Medical tech-j
nology and other paramedical professions also offer hundreds;
of opportunities.
Increased salaries to hospital personnel account for the;
greater part of the 15' < rise in hospital costs in 1966, the Asso-j
elation reports. “Hospital employees at all levels—profes-|
sional and nonprofessional—are reaching income levels com
parable to similar skills in other service organizations.”
Modern technology is adding to the efficiency of hospitals,!
Ihe effectiveness of their care and the accuracy of diagnoses. 1
Such equipment as the blood analyzer performs 12 tests in
two minutes. The same tests normally require three to fouri
hours.
Coronary care units monitor heartbeats of patients at all;
times and artificial kidneys substitute when necessary in re-;
moving impurities from the bloodstream.
Complex equipment costs money, requires skilled proses-i
Conals to operate and saves lives. This is a gerat part of the 1
story of modern hospital care and its costs, according to Glenn!
M. Hogan, Hospital Association Director.

I VERY OfYEN receive mail of such interest that I would
like to share with my fellow Georgians, Such was the case re
cently with a letter from a Laurens County man now fighting in
Viet Nam.
He introduced himself as “a Private First Class in the United
States Army,” and he indicated pride to be in the service of his
nation. He was on his way to a tour of duty in Viet Nam.
“First of all,” he wrote, ‘‘l am sure some of the soldiers are
going to ask me what is going on in the states, and I can’t help
but tell them how young men are still burning their draft cards
and how people are protesting the war in Viet Nam.
“This guy called Stokely Carmichael, or whatever his name
is, makes me sick ... These people are surely hurting the morale
of the American soldier. Everytime I see these news reports about
draft dodgers and anti-war people, it just makes me sick to my
stomach.”
* * ♦
THIS YOUNG PRIVATE speaks, I believe, for an over
; whelming majority of the American people and our service men,
who are just plain sick at what has been going on in our country
J in the name of “free speech.”
These demonstrations, draft card burnings and shameful
desecration of the American Flag are nauseating at best and al
most treasonous at worst. Without doubt, they have the effect of
giving aid and comfort to the enemy in Hanoi and they result in
prolonging the war at greater loss of American lives. To my
mind, this does not fall within the realm of the right to dissent.
There is a law against burning one’s draft card and it should
be enforced to the hilt. And there ought to be a federal law
against desecration of the American Flag. A number of such
measures are pending in Congress, and I hope that flag burning
i| will soon become a federal crime.
• * •
PERHAPS SOME COMFORT can be found in the fact that
these beatniks and Vietniks do not speak for the American peo
ple nor represent the thinking of this nation.
They are in fact a disgrace and an insult to our fighting men
in Viet Nam.

Letter From God
(Second letter contributed
, by subscriber.)
Written by God himself, and
having dropped in the city of
Magdsnbung.
This letter was written in gold
en letters, and sent by God,
through an Angel. To him who
desires to copy it, it shall be giv
en, and from him who depiseS it.
the Lord shall depart.
He that worketh on the Sabbath
■ day is cursed, therefore I com -
mand that you shall not work on
the Sabbath day, but that .you go
to church piously; but you shall
not omamency your faces, nor;
wear false hair; nor give away to*
pride.
Os your wealth you shall give
to the poor liberally and believe
i that this letter was written by
; my own hand and sent out by
। Christ himself. And you shall not
J do as the irrational brute. You
; j have six days of the week to la
-1 bor, the seventh, Sunday, you
। Shall keep holy. If you do not
j obey this, I will send war, pesti
j lence and famine among you.
। and punish you with many
; plagues.
! । I also command each one, be he
■ । whosoever he may, young or old,
great or small, not to work late on
Saturday, but repent of your sins
that they may be forgiven. Nei
ther be eager after silver or gold,
neither give away to anger, lust,
or passion, remember I created
you and am able to destroy you.
Do not rejoice over the poverty of
your neighbor, but have compas
sion on him and you shall pros
per.
Children: honor your father
and your mother, and* it will be
well with you upon earth. He who
i does not believe and obey this,
he is lost and damned.
I. Jesus, have written this with
my own hand, and who denies
this and blasphems me, shall not
receive any help from me. He
who has this letter in possesion
and does not reveail it, is arranged
before the Christian church and my
Cmnipctince. It shall be given to
every one desiring it, and even if
your sins are very great, they
shall, if you repent sincerely, be
pardoned; he who believes it not,
shall die and be tormented in
hell.
And in the judgment day I will
> inquire of you, and you must an
swer for your sins.
He who carrieth this letter
I with himself or keepeth it in his
house, will not be injured by
lightning, he will be secure against
fire and water, and he will make
it known among man; shall have
his reward; and a happy depart
ure from this life. Keep the com
i mandments I have sent unto you
j through an angel.
j I the true God of the throne of
; heaven, and the son of Mary.
Amen .
This transpired in Magdanburg
and was dropped by an angel.

Using The Harvest
From The Garden
By Rebecca M. Walker
I
i Perhaps the spring fever has
'caused you to plant a small gar-.
den. How w'e all enjoy watching
; young plants grow and produce.
To capture this garden fresh
ness and store it to enjoy through
' ourt the year, plan now to can or
freeze a supply of vegetables. If
iyou do not have a garden, there
Should be a supply nearby that
you could buy iwhile they are
plentiful, cheap, and in their
prime of goodness. Yes, there are
a few plans to make.
j Determine how many vegeta
bles you need to store for your
kmily. Then, inventory yoursup
jply on hand. Will you can or
freeze these vegetables? This de
pends on your equipment. If you
!have a food freezer, freezing is
I easy, takes very little time, and
; you’ll have fun doing this. You’ll
;be proud of a supply of frozen
vegetables ready to remove from
the freezer and cook for any meal.
If you do not have a food freez
er, the vegetables may be canned.
For low acid foods, you’ll need
' a pressure canner. This is neces
'sary because it requires a temper
■ature higher than boiling water
;to kill the bacteria in this group
;of foods.
Now is a good time to get the
pressure canner checked and be
sure it is in good working condi
tion. Tomatoes are processed in a
boiling water bath canner. With
modern equipment, home canning
ban be accomplished quickly.
With either frozen or canned
vegetables, meal preparation is
much quicker. They afford you a
• larger variety of vegetables.
Think how it wtiH cut down on
your shopping trips. There’s no
substitute for good home frozen
|or canned vegetables. The flavor
is practically the same as if you’d
