Indications are that game nl Gulf county will be more plentiful this season than in many years, due to the fact that so many hunters are now in service and the scarcity of ammunition last year. Hunting licenses are expected to be on sale within the next few days, and sportsmen who are sur- ficiently lucky to have or can ob- tain ammunition' should have a whale of a good time. CAN'T ADVANCE DATE ON OYSTER SEASON The effort of the state board of conservation to advance the date of the oyster season from October 1 to September 1 is not legal, ac- cord.ing to an opinion last week i by the state attorney general, who said that "the state board of con- servation lacks authority for such i action." c He pointed out that the first day u of October is definitely set by the ] legislature and can't be changed.

FOUR BEDSIDE BELLS NEEDED AT HOSPITAL Due to the large number of pa- tients at the municipal hospital, two rooms originally designed for use of the nurses have been called nto use. These rooms are not equipped with nurses' call bells and it is asked that anyone hav- ng small dinner or bedside bells contribute them to the hospital for use of the patients in these twu oomi. These bells cannot be bought, nd four are needed. Anyone hav- ng one of these bells and desiring o- contribute it i; requested to ring it to The Star office or takw t to the hospital.

Our Country Right or Wrong THE WAR IS NOT OVER That the war is not yet over is a warning that has been given the American people by General Dwight D. Eisenhower and others in high ranking military positions. There are many sound reasons for the army and navy taking this *position. In the first place, it is factual. The casualties announced after Saipan and the Normandy invasion bear tragic evidence that such is the case. But there are other factors involved which are vital to the future peace of the world. Re- liable information shows that the strategy of Germany at the present time is to win a negotiated peace so as to prepare for another try at world conquest. German diplomatic and military leaders know that they cannot win the war on the military front, but they also know that the German armies are- still powerful and, while those armies of the Nazis retain their power, Germany would like to have a negotiated peace, for Germany would have c''n-idcra:ble bargaining power at the .pe'ace:'oinferenc>:, but if the German armies "'The Low Down from Willis Swamp Editor The Star: As a nation, you know, we're hard to beat for ove.rdoin' things.

There ain't nothing wrong with security-never was- but the new kind is a sorta syn- thetic type..

No, the war is not yet over and, as the popular song of World War I put it: "It won't be over 'till it's over over there." The hardet- each of us works on the war effort, the sooner the war may be over. We all know that the men over there will do their part. It remains for us over here not to let them down for one minute, or one fraction of a minute, and the American people will not. Probably most of the taxpayers in Port St. Joe did not know it, but the Gulf county school board held a public meeting at the courthouse in Wewahitchka Tuesday morn- ing for the purpose of discussing a proposed increase of more than 5 per cent in the 1944- 45 school budget. Likewise, the board ot county commissioners held a similar meeting b on' August 23 to increase expenditures, for il operation of the county government for the 1944-45 fiscal year. The editor of The Star believes that notices of such important mat- ters should be published in both papers of the tc county in order that all interested persons may see them. Very few people in Port St. Joe take the "official" county paper and con- sequently did not know of these two meetings. Para arid rubber are not synonymous, as many think.
