Our Country Right or Wrong COMMENCEMENT Next Monday twenty-one high school students will be graduated from the local institution of secondary education in which they have passed the last four years, and will go forth into the world of higher education or business, their high school days over and done with forever. To many of them the last four years have been a profitable period in which they made the most of their opportunities for mental discipline and intellectual advancement; to some the quadren- nium was, it is to be feared, a period of neglected opportunity in part. All of them, if they do not realize it now, will come to know that the last four years was, or was not (depending upon their attitude toward their studies) an extremely im- portant period in their development. When one is graduated from high school, one has definitely left the schooldays of childhood, and has progressed to the point where everything one does counts vitally in one's life work. Higher education, it will be found, costs real money, and if one has been poorly prepared to receive the knowledge placed before him in college, it is re- vealed tellingly. On- the other hand, those ,k ho applied themselves in high school to the best .of their ability will have little to fear ;when college life is' entered, and their path will be corre- spondingly easy. TEN YEARS AGO From the Files of The Star DuPonts Take Over Meade Stock After several months' considera- tion by the Meade Corporation and Gulf Coast Properties, Inc., a sub- sidiary of the estate of the late Al- fred I. duPont, an agreement was reached this week whereby Gulf Coast Properties acquires a 100 per The parents of those students who sit on the stage in the high school auditorium during the graduation exercises Monday night will feel mingled sentiments of pleasure, pride and sor- row, Pleasure because their sons and daughters have gone through high school and have avoided the thousand illnesses and accidents of childhood and have been found fitted to receive their di- plomas; pride because it is no little thing to guide a child in the way he should for eighteen years so that he may reach this important milestone in his path of progress through life; sorrow that their little child has approached manhood or womanhood and must be reckoned as a distinct human entity with thoughts, feelings and am- bitions individual to him or her only, and a tinc- ture of regret that Father Time relentlessly un- folds the years and their young one must leave the parental nest for a career and experiences of his own, apart from the watchful and protective parental influence. This is merely life, however, and the present regret at the departure of the young people from intimate family life probably will be tempered by the hope and prayer that the graduate from high school will so conduct himself or herself that the future record will become a source of pride and satisfaction to the parents who view the commencement ceremonies Monday evening with sometimes misty eyes. Whatever their record is to be in the future, the entire community congratulates their parents and their educators upon their having reached the point where they are honored in bidding goodby to high school, and wishes them nothing but success in whatever they undertake in the future.

Hardison states that three men are employed by the state board in connection with the laboratory. One heads the department, with head- quarters in Jacksonville; one di- rects activities in the state at large, and the third directs activities in Franklin and Gulf counties, where 90 per cent of the state's oysters are gathered. Pointing out possible consequen- ces of carelessness or ignorance in handling the quarter million dollar shellfish industry in this section, Hardison said it was, the desire of his department to lend every effort to educate oyster dealers and those 'handling them. The laboratory will work with lo- cal producers in installing proper physical plant facilities so that this famous seafood might be certified at its source. He said many plants in the area have already instigated programs to correct faulty condi- tions. Stressing the need for co-opera- tion between catcher, processor, conservation authority and sanita- tion director, Hardison emphasized the fact that through consistent ef- fort, the purity of Florida shellfish in general, and the Apalachicola oyster in particular, would be be- yond question. The unique laboratory in Apa- lachicola was brought about thru the inauguration of the first oyster cultivation district, composed of Gulf, Franklin and Wakulla coun- ties. The new unit, through its ex- per.imental and research work in planting and cultivating oysters, has already shown that the vast possibility of oyster yield in shal- low bays of the area have only been RICH'S CRe,C MARKET PAGE FIVE I It's time to consider the future.

Department Newspapers Not Allowed to Publish Results of Contests By RUSSELL KAY It has been the practice for many ears to encourage sports fishing in Florida by offering prizes in fishing contests ftr the largest fish caught of various species. Thousands of eager sportsmen have entered these contests, and many point with pride to the "big one that didn't get away" and tell of this or that prize they won for their skill and achievement in con- quering these denizens cf the deep. For years sports columns have carried pictures of these piscatorial champions and described in detail the battle that resulted in such a mighty victory. . Have you envied these guys and secretly hoped -that some day you might attain the skill to win such an honor and be so acclaimed? Have you cussed the "big one" that got away, which might have been the all-time prize winner? Don't condemn yourself. Don't feel sorry. Nothing you might have done would have made any differ- ence. It was all purely a matter of luck. You were engaged in a lot- tery, and skill had nothing what- ever to do with it. You can laugh at the guy who wins the prize for catching the biggest fish. He de- serves no credit for his feat. It was just plain horse luck. Try telling that to a guy who has wrestled with a wily bass or a leap- ing tarpon and see how far you get. But, according to a ruling of the postoffice department, catching any kind of a fish is just luck. Anyone entering a fishing contest is engag- ing in -a lottery, for there is no skill attached to landing a fish. The fish- erman simply gets a strike, pulls in his prize and has no control over the size of his catch. . Therefore, the postUl.ice depart- ment rules that it is u-nlawfui and against postal regulations for a newspaper or other publication to publicize such contests, give names of winners or in any way encourage such wickedness. Any paper that does so risks the loss of its mailing privilege. You would think the postoffice classify sports fishing as a lottery. department, wallowing as it is in No wonder they have to cut down red, ink and inefficiency, could find service to the public and scream more important things to do with for increased postal rates. taxpayers' money than hiring dim- ----- wits to sit in air-conditioned offices Tree cutters are called "fallers," and m ak e idiotic rulings that and they usually work in teams of 0 -I -'-I YOU CAN'T MISS.

E Methodist Men Hear Talk By Judge Lewis Declares World Would Be Greatly Improved If People Would De- pend pn Spiritual Guidance At a meeting of the Methodist Men's Fellowship held Thursday night of last week in the Florida Power Corporation office, some 50 members and guests heard a force- ful talk on "The-.Power of Prayer" by Judge E. Clay Lewis of Panama City, a former St. Joe resident. Lewis, who was introduced by John Blount, program chairman, re- viewed his personal experience and showed that the power of prayer in the lives of men today does play an important part. He also expressed the opinion that if people 'today would depend more upon the Chris- tian religion and upon spiritual guidance, the overall world condi- tion would be greatly improved. Sportsmen's Association Seeks Greater Aid From State Game Commission At the meeting of the Dead Lakes Sportsmen's Association held Tues- day night in Wewahitchka, C. L. Morgan, president of the organiza- tion, took a verbal poke at the state game and fresh water fish commis- sion "for all promises and no ac- tion" in its pledge of. assistance to 'the association. He demanded greater expenditure of commission funds in the estab- lishment of more conservation proj- ects "in this district, which con- tributes more to the support of the commission in license fees than any other district in Florida." During the business session, Mor- gan was re-elected- as president; Earl Pridgeon was named as vice- president; Harlan Pridgeon, secre- tary, and Dr. D. H. Anderson and Dave Gaskin, directors. All are from Wewahitchka. Among county offi- cers named in the four-county set- up, B. B. Conklin was named as vice-president, and A. L. Ward and George Tapper as members of the board of directors from Gulf county. SAINTS THROW SCARE (Continued from page 1) the count 3-0. In the fourth three more counters were chalked up by St. Joe by Her- ring, Price and Mitchell, Price mak- ing a specatcular steal from third, much to the discomfiture of Sum- mers. The 'Gators made their first run in this inning as Gaskin and Summers got singles, advanced on a wild pitch by Dudley, and Creel and McDaniel wel;e handed walks to walk in Gaskin. The Saints made one in the sixth and one in the seventh, while the 'Gators made their final two in the bottom of the sixth and failed to score thereafter, although .they threatened in the eighth when Lin- ton and Millergren got on base. Dudley was credited with ten strikeouts, while Summers marked up four. The Saints go to Apalachicola on Sunday and next Wednesday will meet the Tallahassee Capitals here.
