Dear Customer,
The City’ of Claxton Gas Company would like to take this opportunity
to thank you for changing over to the New Low Cost Natural Gas fuel.
The Gas Company has a new telephone number which may be reached
during the day at 739-3186 or at night at 739-1712.
Recently we changed over to a new billing system. The change has
caused delay in our billing each month but in the future we hope to have
the bills out by the Ist of the month.
We are giving out copies of our rules governing the operations of
the Gas Company. We would like to stress Section 2. paragraph Dos
the Rule Book pertaining to delinquent bills. In the past we haven't
enforced this section because of our late billing but in the future we
must! These rules may lx? picked up at the Pembroke Motor Company.
Hoping to serve you in the future. I am
Sincerely.
Charles F. Spencer
Natural Gas Superintendent

YOUTH POWER
Mrs. W. W. Speir reported
that two of the intermediate
age Sunday School classes had
been pooling a special offering
each Sunday from their allow
ances, and for a special project
had purchased a clothes dryer
for the church parsonage. What
about that for youth power?
This writer noted the church
is usually half filled or more
by youth still in public school.
Last Sunday the beautiful
altar flowers at the church
were given by Mr. and Mrs.
Armond Sims and family in
memory of hia brothers and
sisters.
Acolytes for the service were
Bill Heilman and Tony Kick
lighter.
Ushers and greeters were H.
J. Foster, Robert Shaw, Pete
Murphy and Richard Davis.

Gardeners Plan
At Gilh
The program committee of
the Richmond Hill Garden Club
met Tuesday afternoon at Gill’s

enjoyable, enthusiastic and cre
ative thinking session.

presided over the lively discus
sion which included Mrs. L. C.
Gill, the Club’s president, Mrs.
W. W. Meeks, Jr., Mrs. Harry

The tentative programs, ac

and varied interest range.
The next regular club meet
ing will be February 11, with
Mrs. E. C. Robinson, Mrs. Fred
C. Newlin and Mrs. R. J. Pe
cenka hostesses.
Since the club has already
approved plans for an accredit

show schedule will be presented

interpret each category. Each
member is asked to bring an
arrangement of her choice, in
addition to the planned display,
if she chooses.
Among other programs in the
planning stages are a slide

Richmond Hill
School Activities
Taking a few moments to
tour the elementary wing of
the main building after school
one day recently, and chatting
a few moments with some of
the teachers encountered, prov
ed interesting.
In Miss Henderson’s first
grade room was a large bulletin
board with a giant “Frosty, the
Snowman” as a focal point. The
children had made and decor
ated bells in art class and dis
played them around Frosty,
who was helping them to “ring
out the old year and ring in
the new.”
Mrs. Bennett’s first grade
room, adjoining, was attractive
ly decorated with a Valentine
motif, including Valentine mo
biles. A large board on one
side reflected February’s he
roes.
It was learned that both first
grade classes had written thank
you letters to friends and kin
for their Christmas gifts, and
with this language arts activity
had had fun illustrating their
lessons with attractive draw
ings. Mrs. Runette Parker,
teacher aide, assisted.
A glance into the third
grade room of Mrs. A lease
Boles was an inviting one. Dis
cussing a display of art work,
it was learned that the chil
dren were studying a unit in
social studies on clothing. The
students had constructed “lit
tle people” from tagboard and
dressed them with scraps of
cloth from their collection of
fabric samples used in study
ing the origin of clothing. Be
fore the unit is completed,
these children will finish a
study of clothing relating to
weather, climate, and seasons.
HIGH SCHOOL ART
One of the most beautiful and
exciting art exhibits at school
is the one being displayed by
Mrs. Garner’s art students. The
craft medium used is called
“Fun Film” combined with
free-form wire sculpture. The
students have made life-size
flowers of every color and va
riety imaginable, each having
a most professional look and
a joy to behold. Some extra
industrious students have even
made mobiles as additional pro
jects using the same art ma
terials.
ELEMENTARY P.E.
Hrs. Garner has begun a
unit on the art of tumbling.
Several high school F.T.A.
members are assisting her.
Andy Smith is the able first
period assistant; John Drayton
and Douglas Shuman, second
period; Woody Moore, fifth
period assistant; and Deborah
Shuman, Nell Lamond and
Carol Martin are helping with
the last group.
Reports from these middle
school students involved are
that they are really enthused
over their new activity.
DRAMA CLUB MEETS
The Drama Club decided at
their regular meeting to do as
an extra activity the play
“High Window,” and to present
their production to the public
on February 28.
Additionally, they decided to
meet Saturday and give the
auditorium an extra special
cleaning. Mrs. John Heilman,
sponsor, then issued a dinner
invitation to the club to be held
at the end of the cleaning ac
tivity.
Drama Club co-sponsors who
assist Mrs. Heilman are Miss
Lana Floyd and Mr. Harold
Wright.
OLD LUNCHROOM BLDG.
\ visit soon is planned to the
ola lunchroom. This converted
building houses both second
grades, the fifth and seventh
grades.
It was reported recently that
one of the family living classes
has decided to include in pro
jects this six weeks the build
ing of a brick walk from the
old lunchroom building to join
the present covered walkway
connecting buildings.
This same group is planning
a project and study in landscap
ing.
DR MOONEY SPEAKS
TONIGHT
Don’t forget, please, that the
expert on the problems of
drugs and alcoholism. Dr. John
Mooney, of Statesboro, will be
speaking to the public at the
Richmond Hill School Audi
torium at 8:00 p.m. this eve
ning’, Feb. 5.
Everyone is invited, and par
ents and teenagers are urged
to attend.
Dr. Mooney speaks with a
knowledge and authority known
to few- people of his profession.
Politics oln Paradi
The Atlanta Journal and
Constitution have been raisin,
cain for several years about
Georgia’s prison system, partic
ularly its work camps. Very
rareiy have they found anything
to praise in the operation of the
Dept, of Corrections, which, in
cidentally, is considered by ex
perts to be doing the best job in
its history.
These newspapers have been
insistent that the State withdraw
prisoners from work camps
which didn't meet the criteria of
fire safety, sanitation, etc. This
the Department has been doing
Now comes a bill which passed
the Senate last Friday which
would prevent Corrections from
withdrawing prisoners without
the consent of the County, no
matter what conditions the
camps are in.
Corrections Director Robert
Carter says that if the bill is en
acted it will leave him powerless
to enforce the law and regula
tions. So, if Atlanta Newspap
ers, Inc. are truly interested in
bettering Georgia prisons, why
haven't they taken a stand
against this bill?
We wonder who is paying the
guard at Martin Luther King's
new grave at Ebenezer Church
in Atlanta. He's there every
day, in uniform, and in an un
marked car. Is he an Atlanta
city policeman? Also, we hear
that two vicious dogs are kept
in the enclosure, presumably to
discourage vandals.

And, Tom Frier, publisher of
the Douglas Enterprise at Doug

candidate Joe Sport's home

state's newspaper editors in be
half of Joe's candidacy.
On Tuesday of this week,
Pete Wheeler, Director of the
State Dept, of Veterans Service,
delivered a blistering attack in
a speech at Columbus against
the U. S. Budget Bureau for its
“so-called economy moves
which are severely diluting med
ical programs for veterans". He
charged that Vietnam vets and
veterans of other w'ars are suf
fering severely over the Budget
Bureau's reduction of medical
care and facilities in VA hospit
als.

A bitter fight is brewing in

to this was put on in the Senate

hides exceed this limit, no mat- '
ter where they traveled in the
state. The bill has passed the
Senate without the amendment,

seeking to restore this amend
( ment in the House. Could be a
repeat of the many bitter rail
road - truck fights of the past.
