Museum and Art Gallery, near
Rome in the hills of north
Georgia. The museum will be
on the grounds of Oak Hill,

The $420,000 Greek
Revival building is scheduled
for completion by February

memorabilia associated with
the late Martha Berry; a court
of honor; galleries for fine art;

cars.
Formal opening of the
museum and art gallery is
anticipated in the spring of
1972, according to Dr. Inez
Henry, newly appointed
director of Oak Hill as well as
supervisor of the museum. A
longtime key associate of Miss

Wheeler County
Y-Clubs Meet
The November meeting of
the Wheeler County Y-Clubs
was held on Tuesday, Nov. 9.
The meeting was held in the
room of Mrs. Hazel Joyce, the
advisor for the clubs.
The coed meeting of the Tri-
Hi-Y and Hi-Y was called to
order by the President of the
Tri-Hi-Y, Maria Pope. Annette
Nobles, the Chaplain,presented
the devotion. The secretary,
Wanda Ussery, called the roll
and read the minutes of the
October meeting.
The members decided that
the school project for November
would be putting a “thought
for the day’’ on the announce
ment sheet to be read to the
students each morning until
Thanksgiving holidays.
The community project for
November is to do a five minute
interpretation over the Radio
(WDAX) presented by some of
the members. The topic will
be "Thanksgiving.” The mem
bers wish to encourage you to
tune in to their program.
A program on “Happiness”
was gjven by the vice-president
and program chairman, Gina
White. The main theme was,
“Those who bring sunshine to
the lives of others cannot keep
it from themselves.”
gallery, Oak Hill and its
surrounding formal gardens
will be open to the public. The
new facility will be located
near the original cabin where
Miss Berry first taught young
people prior to 1900, between
Oak Hill and the Martha Berry
Highway (U.S. 27). Access will
be through the present gates
to the Oak Hill property.
Martha Berry, a tireless
creator of innovative
educational institutions, was
widely honored as an
educational leader in Georgia
and the South. After traveling
by horse and buggy to teach
young people in the area
around her home as well as in
the cabin she used as a retreat,
Miss Berry in 1902 founded
the forerunner of today’s
Berry College and Berry
Academy. Before her death in
1942, the institution had
grown from cabin to college to
provide education for
thousands of young men and
women.
The Department of
Industry and Trade says it’s
not too early to plan a spring
visit to the new Martha Berry
Museum and Art Gallery, a
fitting tribute to the gallant
teacher who took learning into
the far reaches of the hill
country of Georgia’s
northland.

Christian Seeds
Brick And Mortar
An old insane asylum in
another state was recently torn
down because the 150 year-old
building had become unsafe, and
architecturally it was not worth
preserving. However, it was
interesting to note the brick
to-mortar proportions favored
by builders of long ago. So
great was the mortar-use that
the bricks seemed imbedded in
the clay rather than merely
separated from one another by
the mortar mixture.
Perhaps customs vary from
age to age as regards the brick
and-mortar balance. If they do,
perhaps there are good reasons
for the variation. And perhaps
this proportioning pertains to
more in life than just to con
struction. That is, if bricks
are units of a wall and if
mortar is the bond that holds
them together, then perhaps
persons are units of a family
and acceptance, understanding
and appreciation the bond.
Persons are changing in our
day, both younger and older
persons. Our building units are
irregular in shape. They do
not always mesh well nor fit
together easily. Therefore, the
more the need for mortar: that
bold of undaunted love, in
terest, and acceptance of per
sons which cushion our own
jagged personality outlines and
which permit those structures
of family, community and coun
try that we build, to stand
firm, tall and enduring.
RESOLUTION: Apply this
principle of using superabund
ant mortar of interest, concern
and cooperation to one of your
community structures, like ef
forts for a day care center,
or for the Blood Bank, or for
better medical care. What can
YOU do?
SCRIPTURE; “Give and it
shall be given to you; good
measure, pressed down, shaken
together, running over shall
they pour into your lap. For
with what measure you meas
ure, it will be measured to
you.” Luke 6:38.
PRAYER: Lord, teach us to
serve and not to count the cost,
to labor and ask for no re
ward except the knowledge that
we are doing Your will. Amen.
God bless you now

ATLANTA (PRN) — It’s Cookie Baking Time - or at least the
season to start clipping out recipes for starting a good Christmas
cooking collection!
One sort of cookie that’s a little different from the ordinary
sugar type is made with (of course) egg whites! It’s called a
meringue cookie since it begins much like a pie meringue.
Any recipe that sounds like pie sounds good to me. But alas
my figure usually takes on a pie shape at Christmastime. My
traditional New Year’s resolution is -- “I hereby resolve to lose
my just acquired 5-10 Christmas pounds.”
Well, if you too are a cookie taster baker like me, meringue
cookies are your salvation. Since egg whites have almost no
calories (only about 15), and they expand when beaten, you can
make a lot of cookies without counting many calories. Os
course they do have sugar, but not nearly as much as the average
cookie.
Considering the price of eggs these days, they’re cheap too.
What more can you ask? One more thing, they contain no
cholesterol. So they’re a good present for friends who have to
be on special diets.
Are meringue cookies easy? Sure. Just don’t overbeat the egg
whites. Overbeating makes dry, coarse cookies. The egg whites
should be beaten just stiff enough to hold their shape on the
cookie sheet.
STARLIGHT KISSES
3 egg whites
1 cup white or brown sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup chopped dates
1/2 cup diced roasted almonds and/or coconut
PROCEDURE:
1. Separate eggs and allow whites to become room
temperature; they beat best that way.
2. Preheat oven to 250 degrees F. Cut two pieces of brown
paper to fit two large cookie sheets (approximately 15” x 9”).
You may use paper bags from the supermarket.
3. In small bowl or electric mixer, b?at egg whites on high
speed until soft peaks form. Gradually add sugar and continue
beating on high speed. Add vanilla; move bowl control
occasionally to thoroughly blend ingredients.
4. Stir in dates and diced almonds.
5. Drop by teaspoonfuls onto ungreased brown paper.
6. Bake 18 to 20 minutes or until slightly crisp and dry.
Remove from paper and cook on wire rack. Yield: About 50
kisses.
VARIATIONS:
Use the same procedure above substituting 1 cup shredded
coconut for dates and almonds; 1 teaspoon lemon extract for
vanilla extract.
If you have any questions or recipes you would like to share,
please write to me: Georgia Egg Commission, 1687 Tullie Circle,
N.E., Suite 118, Atlanta, Georgia 30329.
Y-Clubs over the world of which ।
the Wheeler County Tri-Hi-Y
and Hi-Y are very much a
part. The Y Clubs of Wheeler
County struggle toachieve their
purpose as a service club by
meeting those standards re
quired to be a successful organ-.
ization.
Each month, the clubs have
school and community projects
to be carried out. The minutes
of the meetings which are sub
mitted to the paper each month
give details of these projects.
Our monthly projects, minutes
and extra activities are then
submitted to the district office
in Statesboro, where they are
compared with the accomplish
ments of other clubs. Our Tri-
Hi-Y has received an AA rating.
The Y Clubs of America are
very active organizations and
we don’t mind speaking out for
what we believe. We encourage
each and every one of you to
support the Y Clubs as we
support you.

Remember When
The following poem was
printed recently in an English
language newspaper in Mexico.
The author is unknown.
Remember when^pie meant
big in the hips,
And a trip involved travel
in cars, planes and ships?
When pot was a vessel for
cooking things in,
And hooked was what grand
mother’s rugs may have been?
When fix was a verb that
meant mend or repair.
And be-in meant merely
existing somewhere?
When neat meant well-organ
ized, tidy and clean,
And grass was a ground
cover, normally green?
When groovy meant farrowed
with channels and hollows.
And birds were winged
creatures, like robins and
swallows?
When fuzz was a substance,
real fluffy, like lint,
And bread came from
bakeries and not from the mint?
When roll meant a bun, and
rock was a stone.
And hang-up was something
you did with the phone?
It’s groovy, man, groovy, but
English it’s not.
Methinks that our language
is going to pot.
