Roy Martin, Circuit Head, In Show Business 35 Years All success stories seem to have one thing in common-hard worK, self-denial, and disappointments. The story of Roy E. Martin of Martin Theaters, now marking his 35th anniversary in exhibition, is no exception. He was born on a farm in Harris county, Georgia, and as a boy v-orked in the fields. The educational opportunities, available to himn were very meager, being limited to the rural school of his day. His father died while Martin operates 102 theaters in Georgia, Alabama, Tennessee and Florida. and is regarded as one of the lead- ing I. S. exhibitors. AIRPORT NEWS Improvements are going on at a slow but steady pace. The adminds- tration building is erected and the interior is being finished. The shop I and hangars are underway, with one hangar almost completed. The area around the buildings is being cleaned up and will be beautified this spring. Interest in model building is picking up and Bill Montgo;nery and Stan Haro.is have just com- pleted two slick gas jobs.

H________ TS DRINK PASTUERIZED MILK PRODUCED BY .you George 6 e- Is-y .t." PAGE THREE THE STAR, PORT ST, JOE, GULF COUNTY, FLORIDA * Have you a collection of recipes for meatless meals? It's a big help .. not only during Lent, but any time you want to cut your food bills. So today I'm going to tell you about some dishes that are real "collector's items." They're delicious, nutritious and economical ... especially when you buy the ingredients at your A&P, where fine foods are thriftily priced. SUPREMELY SATISFYING SOUP To satisfy hearty appetites, I al- ways serve a hearty soup if my main course is light. Puree Mon- gole is my family's favorite and oh so easy to make. S\ Like so: Simmer S / 1 chopped onion Sand contents of 2 18-oz. cans of IONA TOMATO JUICE and a can of baked beans 20 minutes; rub through coarse sieve. Season and reheat. Serves 6, and you'll, want "seconds" when you taste the zesty flavor of this soup. The secret? IONA TOMATO JUICE a grand brand that's modestly priced at the A&P. BAKED BEANS' BOON COMPANION No matter how you serve baked beans, don't separate them from their boon companion--brown bread! And to enjoy it at its best, get MARVEL BOSTON BROWN BREAD. Made by A&P's expert bakers, this rich, raisin-studded bread is rushed from the oven to your A&P, so it's always tempt- ingly fresh. Try it! FOR CONTENT DURING LENT Here's how to give new taste ap- peal to that old standby, mncai'.': Cook an 8 oz. package of LNX.ORE MACARONI according to packa'g(,f directions; drain. Add 2 tb:'s. chopped onion and 2 tbsps. chop',,-l green pepper (lightly browned in' butter), salt, pepper and B' lb. of grated cheese. Toss together. ' feet! So is any dish made within ENCORE MACARONI, because iti cooks up tender yet firm-never' mushy. Get a few packages next time you're shopping at your A&P! TO KEEP YOUR COOKIE JAR AJAR Peanut butter brownies will insure the popularity of your cookie jar . and furnish some of the pro- tein that meatless meals may lack. Make them ac- ,x /! cording to your favorite recipe for chocolate brown- ies, using SUL- W TANA PEANUT BUTTER for half the shortening. You'll love this creamy-smooth peanut butter from the A&P in sandwiches, too.

The new closed season was brought about due to the extremely warm weather in the southern part of the state where the spawning season was found to be practically over for black bass by April first.

Our Country -^ Right or Wrong PRIMARIES:, IT CAN HAPPEN HERE The Georgia legislature has made its choice and Herman Talmadge has signed a bill which installs the private primary system in our neighboring state. The choice which was made is an essentially simple one. The senate had wanted a provision requiring the superior courts to prosecute fraud in the primary elections as well a; in the general elections. The general assembly didn't want this provision, because it held that such a connection with the state government would negate the effort to make political par- ties into private associations. The choice, in other words, was between an election system unprotected against fraud, and one which wouldn't stand up against rulings of the U. S. supreme court. The senate finally receded from its position; the primaries are unpro- tected. This doesn't mean that the resulting system will stand up in federal court tests. We don't know whether it will or not. But we do know that the people of Florida, if fully acquainted with all the facts, will reject any move which withdraws the power and protection of the state from the popular primaries which are so vital a part of their electoral system. We don't say it can't happen here. But it mustn't. -Pensacola Journal. 1 STARDUST and MOONSHINE TkL a lo o otpe np opon1 in our DESIRE FOR HOME NEEDS ATTENTION Economists who are diligently striving to maintain or raise the standard of living of Americans should give attention to the fact that most people desire a practical, livable home. "Sell us a home" is the crying and urgent need of Americans everywhere. Home-con- sciousness is one thing that affects our future for peaceful and quiet living. Owning a home provides a chance for realization and gives time for expression. People do not seem to be able to find the home they want and builders are bewildered at apparent shortages. There seems to be little immediate hope for purchasing permanent shelter. 1\Ian has builded his home out of almost every conceivable thing from palm thatched huts to marble. Of the materials available the average man builds out of the cheaper and more durable alternate. The future offers improvements in plastic-. The use of glass, steel and aluminum probably will be on the increase. Prefabricators are be- ginning to 'perfect plans for large-scale pro- duction. Contractors are building homes for public inspection to bid for this vast market. Modern conveniences and luxuries may also become commonplace necessities. Fluorescent- lighted homes bid fair to offer the desired quality of light considerably cheaper. Perhaps more rays will be used to clean and purify the air. All these and more too will be of- fered for approval. Such practical improve- ments which lead the way to a model home for each income group need encouragement. Prospective purchasers of homes are paus- ing, in the first place, to consider whether It would be better to buy now or enter the mar- ket later. Secondly, the average prospective home buyer is waiting for an opportunity to buy just what he wants and will fit his income. The hope is that the time is not in the too remote future when these actualities will be more than architects' plans. -Florida Times-Union. Girls these days come in body styles like automobiles.

A 43 per cent increase in infec- tious syphilis in Florida last yeam is reported by the State Board .of Health. The increase is doubly shocking because it reverses a downward trend established during the war. Also, because it comes -after the development of penicillin for unprecedented rapid treat- ment of VD. Prevention is the watchword, but compared with the streamlined advances made in ,diagnosis and treatment, preven- -tion is still in the horse and buggJ stage. However, authorities say that "conduct and not medication lies at the core of the VD prob- lem." Gonorrhea is treated by local health departments while syphilis is treated only at the rapid treatment center s h i p at Jacksonville. A large majority of the expense of finding- and treat- ing nearly 10,000 cases of syphilis in Florida yearly is borne by the federal governmatant.

FLORIDA FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 28, 1947 Science Comes to Aid of Asters "A . * Double Asters are again easy to grow. Asters are rapidly regaining theii popularity with home gardeners. Once they were among the leaders, as garden and exhibition flowers, a place which they well deserved be- cause of their size, beauty of form and variety of vivid colors. First a wilt, then a disease known as aster yellows, began to spread among them, the disease being spread by leaf hoppers, insects which were difficult to control. Both these handicaps have now been largely overcome. Against the leaf hoppers, D.D.T. dust does an amazingly efficient job; so that by' dusting the young aster plants reg- ularly until they begin to bloom, the insects and the infection they carry can be kept away. Asters grow so slowly, they usual- ly are given the benefit of an early start in a seed box, in order to gel earlier flowers. But florists hav4 found that stronger plants are grown if the seed are sown directly in the garden, and excess plants thinned out, so growth is not checked by transplanting. Flowers. of course come later than with plants started under protection, but not as much later as might be supposed. If you start your own aster seed, in the house, or in a hot-bed or greenhouse, special precautions against fungus diseases should be taken. It will pay to disinfect the seed, using one of the new chem- icals for that purpose which are easily obtained and applied. If in- stead of soil the seed box is filled with vermiculite, a sterile substi, 'tute for soil,, healthy plants may be depended upon. Vermiculite.is a form of mica widely used for build-. ing insulation. It is much lighter. than soil, and easy to handle. Brazil occupies nearly one-halr of the continent of South America-.

Superin- tende:.t Tom Owens then took over and acted as master of ceteminiie4, introd'. nig the various nu1 llb)1's. The hi'.-a school giae clu', under the direction ot Miss Erline Mc- Clellan. really turned on the har- mony in presenting "Bury Me Not O ; the Lone Prairie," "Anania" and "Vesper Bells," this last rendition being really superb. Mrs. Edwin Ranisey presented t-,'a %violin solos, "By tihe Waters of Minnetonka" and "Indian Love Call," accompanied by Mrs. Ralph Swatts, and Miss Marjorie Phi'lyaw gave "Narcissus" as a piano .solo. .A song contest between the Ki- wanis and Rotary Clubs resulted inll the Rotes carrying off top honors due to a lack of Kiwanians pres- ent to harmonize. The Rotariana. under the direction of S. L. Barke, really made the rafters ring with "S eveet Adoline" and "Down By the Old Mill Stream." Two number's by the high school band. "Tea for Two" and "Ameri- can Patrol," brought heavy ap- plause from the audience and, in the opinion of Ye Ed, was the best we. have ever heard the band play. Thile whistling contest between the men and women Iell rather flat. even though the men concealed the ladies top honors. The group singing of a number of old-tinme sngs under the leadership of Hlarry McKnight was a real feature andi enjoyed by all Prof. W. A. Biggart failed to put cn his number for the faculty, and his timl on tile program was taken by Ann George singing "Mighti L:k' a Rose," accompanied at the piano by Erline McClellan. Another scheduled number, two songs by members of tihe first graduating class of Port St. Joe high school, also failed to ma- terialize. This number was to have been presented, we understand, by Nobie Stone, Mrs. C. A. Brown and Mrs. Ral-ph Swatts. Honor was given T. H. Stone at tils time when he was presented with a certificate and pin in recog- nition of 20 years' service on the local school board. The meeting was closed with a brief talk by Mls. Ralph Swatts, P.-T. A. president, who stated that onil this occasion, the 50th anniver- sary of the founding of P -T. A. and the 26tV anniversary of 2.-T. A. in Florida, that the Port St. Joe Par- ent-Teacher Assosciation was also observing its '26th anniversary. be- ing among the first units organized in Florida.
