has appeared in several South
Florida cities during the past
few weeks; and,
Whereas, The summer months

and grounds;
,Now, therefore, I,. Horace W.
Soule, by virtue of the authority
vested in me as mayor of the
city of Port St. Joe, do hereby
designate and proclaim the week

Fund Drive For

Children's Home

Will Open Soon

Hope To Raise $800 In County For
Crippled Children's Home
In Pensacofa

Final plans are being made for
the drive to raise $800 in Gulf
,county toward the fund for con-
struction of the new crippled' chii
dren's home in Pensacola.
Mrs. A. L. Ward states that the
members of the local committee
will begin their drive next week.
which will consist of a house-to-
house canvass.
All civic and church organiza-
tions are being asked to co-oper-
ate with the committee in raising
the county quota, as this hospital
will benefit children from all ot
West Florida.
The present crippled children's
home, a wooden structure formerly
a private residence, is far too small
for today's needs. It has S1 beds
crowded into small rooms, and the
nursery has four baby beds and
four bassinets crowded into one
dark, dingy room. Sanitary condi-
tions and facilities consist of one
bathroom with tub and toilet. The
small kitchen has but one sink
that is much smaller than those
found in most private residences.
It is hope.'d to raise $125,000 In
this drive for construction of the
new home, and when it is com-
pleted it will be turned over to the
American Legion Auxiliary of the
Third District of Florida for opera-
tion and maintenance.


Huge Double Egg Is

White City Product

Carter Ward brought in a huge
egg to The Star office Tuesday
that was produced iby one of the
hens on his rancho at White City.
The egg, eight inches in circum-
ference and weighing five ounces,
had, a normal size egg inside it.
"Looks like that hen is .trying to
keep up with the high price of the
Pupina feed' that Horace Soule has
been selling ine." remarked; Ward.

Mrs. Harold Powell left Monday
for points in Alabama .to visit rel-
atives and friends.

Saints Decisively Defeat First Po-
sition Gators 13-7 and 9-3;
BI.ountstown Here Sunday

The Port -St. Joe Saints detfi-

Gulf Coast League when they took
Sam Husband's Weewahitchka Ga-
tors to the cleaners Sunday by a
score of 13-7 on the Gators' home
field and 9 3 at the St. Joe ball
park Wednesday afternoon.
Terry Hinote held the mound for
the Saints in Wednesday's game,
going the full route and hurling
an excellent brand of ball.
The grandstand was loaded witn
Wewahitchka fans, and, during the
first inning, when the Gatora
shoved over two runs, the air was
filled with lusty cheers. Neither
team scored in the second, arid in
the 'third the rabid Gator fans
really went to town when Bill Lin-
ton came in on a passed ball .by
Bert Cox to make the score 3 0.
However, as in the Sunday game,
the fourth inning was the lucky
one for the Saints when they made
six runs to really sew up the game.
Tommy Mitchell led off, being out
on a long fly to right field. Leon-
ard Belin got a two-bagge.r on a

Our Country Right or Wrong

WE NEED VISION TO GET ACTION
Progress, like everything else, begins at
home, but at present the nation is witnessing
just the opposite as an unrivalled spread of
selfish interest robs America of those fruits
of war and inventive genius which could put
our sort of democarcy far in the vanguard of
world development.
To see what we're driving at, we need only
to turn back the calendar a few months and
remember how visionary leaders. of industry
were predicting a new "golden age" for
Americo as a result of some 3000 inventions
of a war which were to be released for peace-
time adaptation. Even government joined the
fanfare and predicted that we were on the
verge of the greatest period of advancement
and general prosperity the world has ever
known.
Now, bring the calendar up to date and we
see that not only are these "miracles" of
progress scarce, but so is everything else-in-
clididg some of the ordinary incidentals of
life which we considered essential before the
war. Hamstrung by labor, strikes and a de-
cidedly "unvisionary" government, we see our
progress reverting to a state where today we
can't even get a three-cent letter through the
mails with any degree of certainty.
Yet the materials and the concept of the
"golden age" remain within the grasp of our
society, providing someone visionary enough


takes a lead in sorting out all the human ele-
ments and putting them in their correct rela-
tionship. If some of the-drive behind selfish
demands today can be put into the larger cre-
ative view of progress, we might even be able
to overhaul and pass Russia on the road to
tomorrow's greatness.
We are blind if we can't see all of the clar-
ity and health of tomorrow's architecture in
the realm of plastics, electronics and prefab-
rication. We are falling far short of any chal-
lenge if we don't push television and kindred
assets to their utmost and, generally, we have
missed the whole design if we don't see the
opportunity to spread mankind out Into a
more natural environment through rapid
transportation, while bringing him all the as-
sets of our genius.

LAGGING BEHIND
Yes, you read it rightly. It was no typo-
graphical error. The story about the Army
Air Forces yesterday DID say that "within
six weeks its first super-sonic man-carrying
plane will fly at speeds above 1500 miles an
hour." And a couple of paragraphs further on
it casually noted that the researchers are
thinking in terms of 4500 miles per hour. Or
was it 45,000?
There were oldsters watching the Auto
Jubilee parade who believed in their youth
that the human body couldn't stand speeds
higher than a few miles an hour. Now look at
the blamed thing! Around the world in a few
ours? Sure!
There are disturbing aspects. Ever since
the devising of the club and spear, man's ca-
pacity to be a decent, neighborly animal has
lagged light years behind his sagacity of in-
vention. Even a second World War has not
put wings on our social-economic-political
thinking. It's still in the ox-cart area.
Here's something to trouble the world's
best brains as the super-sonic space ships
,whisk past, arriving at their destinations even
before they start.-Detroit Free Press.

A plastic canoe, made in sections, which'
can be thrown together in ten minutes, Ti
doubtless what the country needs, for riding

Ye #64 Question Brings



A ,5oo00,000oo.OOANSWER


This company is engaged in a
$20,000,000 expansion program
to provide more dependable
service at ever lower rates.


The question of electric service rates is
sometimes referred to as the $64 question by
the homemaker constantly beset with rising
prices and an equally rapidly diminishing
.homemaking dollar. The $64 question brings
a $3,500,000.00 answer in accrued savings
to the customers served by the Florida Power
Corporation, resulting from a series of volun-
tary rate reductions over the past ten years. /

While other- cost of living items have
jumped 50% and 100%, your electrical dollar
buys twice as much as it did 10 years ago. Un-
less inflation completely destroys the value
of the American dollar, other voluntary elec-
tric rate reductions will be made and the con-
venience of electrical living will be brought to
more and more people at constantly lowered
costs.

Fighting insects which invade
gardens has been simplified by
D.D.T., which is fatal to all except
a'few garden pests, arid kills' both
'.eaf eaters and juice drinkers.
The common garden insects
which D.D.T. does not kill are the
Mexican bean beetle, red spider
and most aphids. It does kill the
beetles, caterpillars, leaf hoppers,
Olea beetizs, borers (including the
European corn borer) and thrips
which attack both vegetables and
Sowers
To kill the Mexican bean beetle,
red spider and aphids, rotenone
ran be used, mixed with D.D.T. if
desired, to make a combination
which few if any insects can sur-
vive.
D.D.T., like arsenic. is poisonous;
it should be used with the same
precautions which are followed
with arsenic. The government per
.mits a residue of D.D.T. on food
crops offered for sale, which is the
same as the tolerance for arsenic.
Solutions of D.D.T. in oil are def-
initely more toxic to warm-blooded'
animals than dusts, or the wettable
powder which can be used in
sprays. Do not spray anifnals with
an oil solution of D.D.T. and avoid
getting such a solution on your skin.
*D.D.T can bee"' -nixed' with any
common insecticide or fungicide
except highly alkaline.preparations
such as lime and lime-sulphur. It
is obtainable for garden use as' a
dust in various strengths, as a wet-
table.powder which can be mixed
with water to make a spray, and
Also in liquid form for preparing
a spray. Dust of three per cent
strength will control most garden
insects, but a 5 per cent dust gives
protection over a longer period.
Squash, cucumbers and melons
may be injured by D.D.T. sprays
and dusts, and young tomato plants
less than 12 inches high may have
their leaves curled by too heavy or
too frequent applications.
The chart which accompanies
this article shows the general char-
acteristics of the commonest gar-
den insects and brief descriptions,
and suggestions for combating the
most common follow:
Aphids cling to the underside of


leaves, or on the growing ends ot
stems of many vegetables, multi-
plying with amazing rapidity. Usa
ro.tenone, pyrethrum or nicotine
dust or spray, immediately first
specimens are detected.
The striped cucumber beetle is
yellow with three black strips. It
breeds in the blossom ends of cu-
cumber, squash and melon vines,
eats leaves and, spreads disease.
Dust new growth as it develops
with dust composed of'l lb. calcium
arsenate and 10 pounds of talc or
gypsum, repeating until vines arc
several feet long.
Flea beetles are small flea-like in-
sects which riddle leaves with
small holes. Use D.D.T. dust or
spray.
Leaf hoppers are a serious pest
on potatoes, beans, carrots and as-
ters. They drink the plant juices
and seriously reduce vigor, besides
transmitting the aster yellows dis-
ease from weeds to asters and car-
rots. Beans are often infested,
causing their leaves to become
crinkly and eventually to die.
D.D.T. dust will control this pest
better than any other material.
Cutwormt are caterpillars of va-
rious moths which hide by day and
at night cut off young plants at the
soil surface:' Prodtdt life plants
with collars of heavy paper or card-
board surrounding the stems, ex-
tending an inch below the soil sur-
face and two inches above, when
the plants are set out.
The Mexican bean beetle is a
black sheep of the lady bug family.
Coppery brown, 8 black spots orn
