One of these days is yesterday with its mistakes and cares, its faults and blunders, its aches and pains. Why worry about yesterday since it has already passed beyond our control? Only God could turn back the shadow of the sun dial and reverse the process of time. There is no blessing or benefit to be obtained through needless worry over the mistakes of a day that has passed into eternity.

WAYNE MOflfllS U-S- 341 Just North of 1-75 Perry High School Teachers attend Staff Workshop; Donate to needy By PAULINE LEWIS Staff Writer Perry High School was the host school for a staff development workshop entitled “Coordinating Curriculum and Vocational Student Organizations.” It was an exciting, hands-on type workshop which would prepare instructors as they advise their various organizations in the coming school year. The organizations which were represented were DECA, FBLA, FFA, FHA, HERO, TSA, VICA and VOCA. The workshop, sponsored by The Charter Management Institute, was held Aug. 1-4 and was the first workshop of its kind in Georgia. The 86 participants were vocational supervisors, and vocational instructors. They simulated a year of club activities in one week. They received very good training from coordinators from Alabama and Georgia. The advisors from the clubs formed four mixed work groups. As part of the program of work for the week, they were asked to do a community service project. One group chose Perry’s local Fall garden can be challenge, but rewarding A fall garden is a challenge, but well worth the effort if some basic gardening principles are followed. Now is the time to begin finaliz ing your fall garden plans. A well cared for fall garden can be quite re warding, but it may require more at tention due to increased pressures from insects and diseases. Several vegetables can be planted now. these include both warm sea son and cool season crops. One warm season crop that can be started now is snap beans. Some cool season crops that can be planted very soon are beets, broc coli, cabbage, carrots, lettuce, English peas, collards, cauliflower, kale, mustard and turnips. Preparation for the fall garden is important. All old plant material Rotary International Director to Speak Aug. 15 Dr. Aaron Hyatt, a Director of Rotary International, , will be the guest speaker at the Perry Rotary Club on Monday, Aug. 15t. Hyatt, who is currently the President of Macon College, was named a Director of Rotary at the International Convention held in Taipei, Taiwan in June. Originally from Sylva, N. C., became a Rotarian in 1972. He later became President of the Sylva Rotary Club and Governor of a yesterday. We cannot undo a single act once performed, we cannot erase a single word that was written or spoken - yesterday is gone. The other day that we should not worry about is tomorrow with its possible adversaries, its burdens, its greater problems and its increased dangers. It is a settled fact that most of those things pertaining to tomorrow are beyond our immediate control. Tomorrow’s sun will rise, if God so wills, either in splendor or behind a mask of clouds. Therefore, until it does, we have no stake in tomorrow - for it is yet unborn. This leaves only one day - today. Any man can fight the battles of just one day. It is “Loaves and Fishes” organization. This choice was then presented to the other three groups involved in the conference The entire conference participants voted to support the project. Food items and money were brought in and on Thursday morning, August 4, 1994, many pounds of food and a nice donation of cash were presented to the “Loaves and Fishes” organization staff which included Alvalyn Pope, Gail Baase and Aileen Harden. Gail Baase graciously spoke to the conference participants. The instructors, representing many areas across the State of Georgia extended their appreciation to the Perry High School staff and administration, the Loaves and Fishes organization and to Nancy Bcggs, Director of the Chapter Management Institute of Georgia (who also was representing the Georgia Department of Education). They thanked them for giving the instructors an outstanding workshop, and at t\hc same time, for allowing them the great satisfaction of being able to help fellow Georgians in need. should be tilled under to discourage disease buildup and encourage plant decomposition. If diseases or nematodes are evi dent, the infected plants should be removed from the garden and burned. Till the soil to a depth of eight-to-10 inches if possible. Then rake the area smooth to make a good seedbed. Seeds should be those of rec ommended varieties. Seeds saved from the previous crop should not be planted due to the danger of dis ease carryover. Fertilizer and lime should be ap plied according to soil test results. One way to make the most of your fertilizer is to split the appli cations in two or three applications. To do this, apply one-third of it at Rotary District. He is best known for his heavy involvement in Rotary’s Health, Hunger, and Humanity Program. Since 1985, he has traveled to approximately 45 countries in Central and South America, Europe, Africa, India, and Southeast Asia to work with Rotarians developing 3-H proposals. From 1992-1994, Hyatt has served as Information Counselor to the International President of only when you and I add the burdens of those two awful eternities yesterday and tomorrow - that we break down. It is not the experience of today that drives men mad. It is n remorse or bitterness for something which happened yesterday and the dread of what tomorrow may bring. (The Rev. James A.

Use herbicides or cultivate shal low, being careful to avoid plant roots. Mulch if possible. Watering the fall garden is an important consideration also. On light, sandy soils, about three fourths inches of water per applica tion is recommended. On heavier, clay-type soils, it is best to water once per week, using about one-to one-and-one-half inches of water.
