B. WHITE, County Agent for the fall term, according to, - From time to time there have been a few comments in regards to the farming in Gulf county. Now, it is a known fact that there is very little actual farming such ,as corn; cotton, peanuts, etc., in this county compared to Jackson and Holmes counties and counties in Alabama and Georgia. However, once upon a time, back in 1839-70, there was very little farming in those places compared to the !Principal W. A. Biggart, with all teaching positions filled with the exception of junior high math, . physical education and that. of oanoanaster. Mr. Biggart stated that efforts were being made to fill these positions and that he was sure the faculty would be complete by Monday. School will take up at 9:30 each morning during the term, due to war saving time, and all bus farming that now goes on there. drivers have been advised to ar- Let it be clearly understood now I range their scheduels accordingly. that this county will never be a: Rev. W. A. Daniels will conduct general farming section like those the devotional Monday morning on above us. Why? Because, first, we the first day of school. do. not have the same type of sail; s-cond, we have more rainfall, and third, the land is owned in large tracts and not in 40 to 2,50-acre tracts like the majority of land is owned in the general farming areas. 'Then, it may be asked, what kind of farming is there to do.? Cattle farming or ranching, pas- ture, pines, wildlife and our fa- mous tuplo honey is the answer. First, our land is low and wet, which is excellent for the growth of grass pastures. Land which is a 'little higher has an excellent gr-wth-. or plus-P S.cuuu, : ni the low lands we have plenty of rain to keep grass growing. Third, the land is owned, in large tracts, which is suitable and ideal for cattle. Therefore the greatest ex- .pansion in farming in Gulf county ' ill be in cattle and pastures. In otner words, we cannot compete with the general farming areas with our soil, nor can they com- pete with us in raising livestock. Now let us see what has been accomplished in the cattle and. pasture program. Briefly this: By January 1, 1943, there will be be- tween 500 and 600 acres of im- proved pastures in Gulf county. There are between 20 and 25 pure- bred 'gulls in the county at the! present time, whereas a year and . a half ago there were but three or four. Who are the people who are ian- proving their pastures and. herds of cattle? They are C. W. "Red" Horton, James A. Glenn, W. T. Ed- wards, C. H. Johnson, H. C. Lis- trr, Earnest Rhames, Clyde Teat, 'The faculty this year will be made up as follows: Senior high SEnglish, Miss Mimi Schneider, Mathematics, Mrs. Alton Dendy; history, J. A. Pearson; science, Miss Clara Mae Terrill; commer- cial, Mrs. G. R. Mize; home eco- nomics, Mrs. B. A. Pridgeon; junior high English, Mrs. Frank- lin Jones; sixth grade, Miss Lois Milton and Mrs. Eudessa Gainer; fifth grade, Mrs. Dorothy McLaw- hon and Miss Katherine Nix; fourth grade, Mrs. Hazel Ferreli and Miss Della Mozley; third grade, Mrs. Helen Rollins and Mrs. Calla Perrltt; seecond~'garde, Mrs. Avaryee Martin and Miss Juanita Gunn; first grade, Mrs. Minnie Howell, Mrs. Phena Mc- Phaul and Miss Nellie Nowery. ------ -------- "MURDER THRILLER" AT PORT WEDNESDAY Van Heflin, said to be Holly- wood's most promising rising star, plays the lead in "Grand Central Murder," coming to the Port the- atre next Wednesday. Heflin, whom most fans will re- call for his fine performance as Robqrt Taylor's pal in "Johnny Eager," fairly scintillates as the w.ise-cracking sleuth of this new mystciry drama, as he unravels a most complicated crime plot. When Heflin takes over there are 10 suspects held by Sam Le- vene for the murder of a beauti- ful dancer. Levene proves them all guilty, only to discover that he can't hang them all. Then Heflin. who is one of the leading suspects makes an investigation of his owin, 'James Rish and George Hardy. proves nin- ot the ten innocent There are also many more who and reveals how the crime was are getting "cattle minded." committed. - As has been stated, pines, pas- - ture, wildlife and tupelo honey is Convicted On Larceny Charge the main program of work.

S. Smith this week received a communication from George L. Snowden, district A. W. S. director, stating that the army is keeping a close check on planes being reported by various observation posts, and that "in the case of the St. Joe post we under- stand that a number of planes which the army knows have passed within s.ight or hearing distance of- the tower have not been re- norted." The chief observer ias no way of checking on the planes that pass unless he devotes his entire time to scanning the skies, so he's passing the buck (good old army game) to his observers, some of whom apparently have been a bit negligent in attending to their of- ficial duties. It is suggested that observers do not depend upon hearing plants in order to report them, but to keep a constant watch to report planes which possibly, cannot bte heard due to direction of the wind or other causes. _----- ------ KEY WEST GETS WATER THROUGH 130-MILE LINE Fresh water from the wells at Florida City came pouring into Key West this week through what enginers -state is thelogest wa- ter line in the world, the Florida Keys aqueduct, which follows the Overseas Highway and that sec- tion of the Florida East Coast railway right-o-f-way which is to be converted into a highway. The water is pumped for 130 miles through an 18-inch pipeline. At present water is only supplied for military forces, but later con- nections will provide for the needs of civilians. ------ ------- RED CROSS FIELD WORKER PLEASED WITH WORK HERE Mrs. Lea Goodman, traveling field representative of the national Red Cross, visited the local Red Cross surgical dressing room last Friday and was highly pleased with the work being done in mak- ing surgical dressings. Mrs. Goodman informed Mrs. R. V. Coburn, who is in charge of the project, that the work here is far ahead of similar projects in other sections. Serqcant Sheppard Married Charles W.

To facilitate the collection and to save tires and gasoline, air raid wardens on their regular rounds have been checking on the junk available as part of their duties. They will continue to do so in fu- ture, and collections will be made from time to time by truck. .All scrap material will go to the vacant lot on Monument avenue opposite the St. Joe Motor com- pany, where it will be segregated into various grades under super- vision of Robert Bellows and Nick Kelley. Everyone is urged to have their scrap ready to be picked up when the truck comes around today, for we should all begin to realize, If we do not already know it,' that in order to-sustain -o-r--we -pro-: duction efforts at top speed, and to rule out the possibility of shut- downs in both steel mills and manufacturing plants due to lack of raw materials, it is vital that every community in America, how ever small, organize and conduct a relentless program of scrap col- lection from now on. And housewives are asked to re- member to save all waste fats, as it is vital to the production of munitions. When a pound or more has been collected, take it to your butcher. APPROVAL GIVEN FOR MATERIAL TO IMPROVE ROAD 6 Mayor J. L.

Right or Wrong THE 100-PERCENTERS In every city, town, village and hamlet in America you will find people who have gone all-out to help win this war These are the men, women and children who have bought the war stamps and bonds. They are the one: who have taken up their posts in civilian de- fense. They are the ones who are now col- lecting scrap materials to keep our war tur- naces going under full blast. Women on trucks in New Jersey are col- lecting scrap from door to door. Movie maap- agers in a dozen states are offering free tick- ets for scrap iron and rubber, and collecting ..them by the carolad. In Michigan one small town collected 154 tons of scrap rubber- three. times its quota of five pounds per per- son. In Maine Boy and Girl Scouts work with trucks scouring their neighborhoods for iron, steel and rubber scrap. In Louisiana, Wisconsin, Connecticut, Ala- bama, Illinois, Virginia, and every other state in the.Union, air wardens are working on this huge' national scrap drive. Minute Men, the American Legion, Rotary and Kiwanis clubs and all other fraternal organizations, police departments, women's clubs, city councils and other civic groups-all are working from early to late to gather in every pound of scrap material they can lay their hands on. These loyal Americans, these volunteers who answer every call to the colors, are fired with the same spirit of determination that In- spired our forefathers who founded this coun- try and who have been fighting to defend ,its freedoms ever since. They are the ones who can be counted on in an emergency-not to do only what they think they have to do to "get by," but everything they can do to help their country. These "one hundred-percenters" are the backbone of America, and when this war is won it will be their efforts that have won it and not those who always sit on the sidelines and let the other fellow do all the work. Are you a "one hundred-percenter"? There are too many people in Port St. Joe and Gulf county sitting on the sidelines today instead of doing their bit for this all-out war effort. BACK TO SCHOOL Next Monday the public schools of Gulf county open to receive our young people, as they do every year about this time through- out the nation. We have become so accustomed to this that parents only think of the opening of school as it affects their daily life and possibly'the cost of clothing, books and other incidentals, and the children view it principally as sonit- thing that must be done with varying amount of joy or sorrow. Actually the opening of our public schools each year is a symbol of the rebirth of out nation and the ideals on which it was founded. Our public school system is the bedrock of our democracy. It is the crucible in which the steel of the framework of the future of our country is melted and purified. This country could never have reached its present state of greatness if our forefather- had not seen the advantages of public educa- tion, and it will never fail as long as our pub- lic school system continues to function as it should. We need only to look back a little more than two decades to see what public schools can do for a country and consider the valiant fight being put up today by Russia, which a few years ago was a country of ignorance, hunger and confusion. Twenty years of pub- lic school education has made a great nation able to stand against the most powerful war machine in Europe despite the fact that the nation was founded on an unsound philosophy FLORIDA MAN MAKES BULLET-PROOF ARMOR Dr. Guy Otis Bre.wster of Home- stead, Fla., has developed a bul- let-proof armor which has with- stood severe test by the navy and in all probability will be. employed in certain types of fighting.

IS MAIN FARMING INDUSTRY IN GULF (Continued from Page 1) poultry, etc., are secondary to the main program. Before any program can be put over in top shape everybody has got to get behind it 100 per cent. It is to the interest of all to have some well-developed agricultural resource in any section of the county. At the present time there is not enough beef produced in Gulf county to provide the needs of the people here. The cattle and pasture program covers a wide range and is slow to show progress, but it is sound. We here in Gulf county have started the safe and sound way b.y grow- ing into the cattle business rather than by buying into it. If you buy into the cattle business, you run a great risk of breaking out. The cattlemen of Gulf county are not going to "break out." Mrs. B. E.
