century. (PRN)

GEORGIA
TOCCOA (PRN)
Traveler’s Rest, probably
northeast Georgia’s oldest
building, is a rambling,
spacious structure with a
singular look of age.
The Georgia Historical
Commission has taken such
care to maintain the early
appearance and furnishings of
the pioneer building that it is
easy for the visitor to imagine
it in its former roles - frontier
fort, stagecoach stop, tavern,
trading post, post office,
plantation home.
Traveler’s Rest w'as
probably built between 1816
and 1825 on land originally
owned by Major Jesse Walton,
Revolutionary War soldier,
Indian fighter and political
leader. Devereaux Jarrett
purchased the property in
1838, expanded it, and named
it Jarrett Manor. It remained
in the hands of his
descendants until 1955 when
it was given to the Georgia
Historical Commission.
Measuring one hundred feet
long and thirty feet wide, the
three-story clapboard
structure is built over a
cobblestone basement where a
kitchen, storerooms, and wine
on Sunday.
Mr. and Mrs. Martin Pope,
Mrs. Howard Sharpe and Leigh

Devereaux Jarrett’s account
books, doubling as hotel
registers, were signed by a
number of illustrious guests.
John C. Calhoun slept here.
And Joseph E. Brown,
Georgia’s wartime governor,
spent his honeymoon here.
In 1837 an English scientist,
G.W. Featherstonehaugh,

the hospitable Georgia inn.
“Coffee, ham, chicken, good
bread, butter, honey and
plenty of good new milk for a
quarter of a dollar,” he noted.
Historic Traveler’s Rest is
on U.S. 123, six miles east of
Toccoa. It is open all year.

The Umbrella
Mender
Whenever I come upon a
shoddy piece of work, I recall
a boyhood scene of an old man
who went from town to town
repairing umbrellas. He
seemed to take unusual pains
with the job, and I remember
my mother’s remark to that
effect. He replied, “Yes, I
always try to do good work.”
“But your customer will
not know the difference until
after you have gone,” she
suggested. He agreed. “Then
you expect to come this way
again,” she ventured. “No,
1 am working West and won’t
be coming back. Why I am so
particular is this: to make it
easier for the man who follows

Double Chocolate —
Doubly Delicious
Double chocolate is a top
flavor favorite at any soda
fountain. It will bring cheers
at dessert time at home, too,
especially when the double
chocolate means a chocolate
cake with a rich fudge filling.
The filling is, of course, just
as good spread between layers
of any yellow or white vanilla
flavored cake.
The variety of cake to be
served is a matter of family
preference, but this Fudge Fill
ing recipe is one that you will
want to add to your recipe
collection. It is rich with dark
chocolate flavor and thickened
delicately with com starch to
just the right degree of smooth
creaminess.
Fudge Cake Filling
2 ounces unsweetened choco
late
% cup sugar
3 tablespoons corn starch
>4 teaspoon salt
1 cup water
3 tablespoons margarine
1 teaspoon vanilla
Melt chocolate in saucepan
over low heat. Remove from
heat. Mix together sugar, com
starch and salt. Stir into melt
ed chocolate. With a spoon,
gradually blend in water. Stir
ring constantly, bring to a boil
and boil 1 minute over med
ium heat. Remove from heat.
Stir in margarine and vanilla.
Chill. Makes enough to fill 1
(9-inch) two layer cake.

customer will find it out in a
few weeks, and the next um
brella mender who comes
along will get a cold
shoulder.”
That was many years ago,
but I have often reflected on
the incident and the lesson it
taught me. If I can’t do my
best on any job because of the
satisfaction it gives me, then
let me think of the fellow who
is to follow me, and let me
do a good job for his sake.
RESOLUTION: Do a good
job not just to please my
neighbor who follows me, but
my God who asks this task of
me today; and who asks me to
use well the talents He gave
me. In pleasing God, I shall
always please my neighbor.
SCRIPTURE: “Take away
the talent from the unprofit
able servant and cast him
forth into the darkness out
side.” Mt. 25:28. “Serve in
the sincerity of your heart,
as you would Christ, not serv
ing to the eye as pleasers of
men; but doing the will of

“Environmental studies come first.
Wherever we build a power plant.”
Jim Motz, Environmental Engineer
Georgia Power Company
“At Yellowdirt, data’s being gathered before we
build. This is typical. The plant won’t be completed
before ’76, but water-sampling stations are already
in use. That’s where the creek’s temperature and dis
solved oxygen are determined. And some water from
these stations is chemically analyzed.
“Various kinds of air-testing equipment are also
employed. These help us understand local humidity
and wind conditions. To estimate sulfur in the air,
sulfation discs are placed around the site. These
discs, along with SO. analyzers, will continue to be
used after the plant is operational.
“Right now there’s no satisfactory way to clean
stack gas of sulfur dioxide. But when SO. removal
equipment is available, we’ll get it. Meanwhile, we’re
doing all we can to keep air clean. Our stacks are
extra-high to disperse flue gas, and electrostatic pre
cipitators remove fly ash.
“Protective measures like these are being carried
out at all our new plants — not just Yellowdirt. And
many older plants will be updated to meet new en
vironmental standards.
“Generating electricity is our business. But it’s
also good business — and good sense — to protect
the environment.”

A citizen wherever we serve®

In Memory
In memory of Pfc. Russell
B. Adams, February 9, 1969.
Twenty-six years ago you
brought happiness to our
home. Today its so sad and
lonesome, since you’re gone.
God shared you with us for a
little while. Since You’regone
its so hard to smile.
There are things we cannot
understand, There are things
we cannot know. But God in
his infinite wisdom, Has seen
fit to make it so.
A precious one from us is
gone, A voice we loved is
stilled, a place is vacant in
our home, which never can
be filled.
The golden gate was open,
God saw you needed rest.
His garden must be beautifal
for he always picks the best.
Just another heart broken
family since Viet Nam.

KILL TWO ODORS
Extension home economists
at the University of Georgia
have discovered a method to
tone down the unpleasant odor
that comes with painting a
room. It seems that a raw
onion cut up and left in a room
when painting makes the paint
odor less potent and the onion
odor disappears, too.
