What kind
of investment
is Freedom
Shares?
□Shrewd? DSafe? □Patriotic? DExclusive?
You're right if you checked all four boxes.
Freedom Shares are a shrewd invest
ment because they pay 4.74% when held to
maturity. They mature in just four-and-a
half years, and are redeemable after one year.
There is no safer investment because
Freedom Shares are backed by The United
States of America.
Exclusive?
Absolutely. Not

Girl Slain;
Man Held
The sheriff’s department in
Screven County was slowly piec
ing together Sunday the frag
ments of what one man called
"the most brutal slaying" he’d
ever seen.
A young girl’s mutilatec body
was found early Sunday in a
shallow grave in southern Jen-^
kins County after police re
ceived a tip from an unknown
person.
Jenkins County Sheriff Wil
mer Taylor removed the man
gled body of Ruth Maxine
Smith, 18, of Egypt, near
Springfield from a hastily dug
grave sometime after midnight
Saturday, authorities said. Miss
Smith had been a 1967 honor
graduate of Effingham County

Police said a man was being 1
detained at the Screven County 1
jail in connection with the :
death of Miss Smith. They de- ’
dined to name the man and de- i
scribed him only as a "white i
male in his early 20’s.” Screven
Sheriff George F. Bazemore
said he hoped to have more in
formation Monday.
“It’s the most brutal slaying
I’ve ever seen,” said Charles H.
Sullenger, senior toxicologist in
charge of the Chatham County
branch of the State Crime Lab
oratory. He said the girl had ।
been “stabbed 30 or 40 times”
and every part of her body had
been slashed.
“She was stabbed,” he said,
“three times through the
heart.” The girl’s face," arms,
legs and chest had also been
slashed, Sullenger said.
The girl apparently had gone I
to Blue Springs, which Baze- I
more described as a recreation
center, early in the evening. <
Sullenger said Miss Smith ap
parently “left there willingly
with her slayer. The crime lab
man fixed her time of death as
between 9 and 11 p.m. Satur
day.
Taylor arrested the man in •
custody in Jenkins County but
Bazemore said he could not re
lease the time or place of the |
arrest. '
Miss Smith was a member of ]
the Elam Baptist Church. J
Surviving are her parents,
Mr. and Mrs. Herman Smith of
Egypt; three sisters, Jo
Ann, Brenda Marie and Linda
Louise Smith, all of Egypt: two.
brothers, Jimmy R., of Egypt
and Lavaughn Smith, U.S. Air
Force; the paternal grandfath
er, G. D. Smith of Egypt; and
the maternal grandfather, W.
R. Graham of Oliver.

YOURS. MINE AND OURS
"Yours, Mine and Ours” is
a continuation of the type of
comedy found in Lucile Ball’s
television series. Henry Fonda,
whom we consider a good actor,
adds much to this light comedy.
The story concerns a widowed
mother of eight marrying a
widowed, retired Navy officer
with ten children. Eighteen
children in one middle class
family is a problem within it
self. But to expect to mix
children from two families with
the problem of "our” child in
any orderly manner proves
catastrophic.
You'll find Mr. Fonda’s and
Miss Ball's hesitant conversa
tions with their children on the
intimate problems of growing up
amusing. There are several
touching scenes with their
children.
Van Johnsen, a confirmed
bachelor, and a host of actors
and actresses of different ages
round out the cast.
Elizabeth Taylor and Frank
Sinatra are scheduled to co-star
in the projected film version of
"The Only Game in Town” for
20th Century-Fox.
James Garner, formerly of the
Maverick TV series, is playing
a similar type role in a film

What does color have to do
with estimating distance, on
earth and in the sky’
Take a look at the mountains
next time you are thirty or forty
miles away, and out of them. At
that distance they will almost
surely be enveloped in a blue
haze^ At long distances on earth
things take on a bluish hue.
In the sky the opposite is
true, a secret of weather many
people don't appreciate. The
nearest clouds appear darkest,
or bluish. The far away views
produce red overtones.
At sunset, when you see
clouds in the west, far away,
quite often they will be all sorts
of reddish colors. The sky is
colored by the sun’s reflection
on the dust particles in the air
when viewed from a distance.
With mountains, or earthly
things, a bluish color denotes
distance, in the sky, red is the
color denoting distance.
