Purchase of 'E' Bonds In
Gulf County On Upgrade

While sale of Series E Savings
Bonds throughout Florida generally
showed a decline during the month
of August, sales in Gulf county
were up. Average monthly sales in
the county during the year have
been in the neighborhood of $2000
monthly, while during August the
good people of the county bought
a total of $5,812 worth.
Total sale-; for August in Florida
came to $2,458,178 or a decline of
22.4% over sales for August 1949.
It seems to us that at a time
when American soldiers are again
dying on world battlefields to pre-
'serve national and individual free-
doms, that the homefront should
Ybe 'buying more bonds instead of
less.

No Gulf Conty

Far This Year

County Home Demonstration Clubs
and 4-H Club Members Will
Exhibit At Bay Fair

All preparations for the Second
Annual Gulf County Fair have been
dropped by the Wewahitchka Am-
erican Legion post, which was to
have sponsored the affair this year,
the reason being, according to Com-
mander Kenneth Whitfield, that no
carnival could be secured.
The fair last.year, sponsored by
Willis V. Rowan Post 116, Ameri-
can Legion, was a huge success and
had the local post known suffici-
ently far in advance that the We-
wahitchka Legion was dropping the
project, it would have been held in
Port St. Joe again this year.
Particularly disappointed are the
4-H Club- girls and boys and mem-
bers of county Home Demonstra-
tion Clubs, who had planned exten-
sive exhibits. However, Miss Emma
Stevenson, county home demonstra-
tion agent, informs us that these
exhibits will be shown at the Bay
County Fair in Panama City, so
their efforts will not be entirely,
wasted.

fected by discontinuance of service
will be heard next Friday morning

sentatives from towns along the A.
N. will present their petitions and
reasons why the mail, passenger

People Start Most

Fires in County

Ranger Hardy Says Up To Resi-
dents To Prevent Woods
Fires From Starting

Wildfires destroyed 82.4 acres of
woodlands in Gulf county during
September, according to County
Ranger H. A. Hardy.
He said his records showed that
there were seven fires during the
month, with damage estimated at
$155.60. Last year for the same
month, the record showed there
were three wildfires that burned
34.5 acres at an estimated damage
of $53.10.
About 98% of all these fires were
started by people, Ranger Hardy
said. Of this number 74% are de-
liberately started and 24% acci-
dentally or carelessly s'arled.
"Therefore, it is up to us, the
people of Gulf county, to prevent
woods fires from starting," Hardy
said.
Persons who want to report wild-
fires may do so by calling the
county fire control unit headquar-
ters at the St. Joe Tower, which is
one long on the forest service line.

Owens Up From 'Gator B. Team
An article in yesterday's Jackson-
ville Times-Union states that Bus-
ter Owens has been taken'from the
University of Florida's B grid team
and upped to the first string, and
is "getting a fling at the quarter-
back spot."

Our Country 7" Right or Wrong

ARE WE GOING TO REPEAT?
We've been hearing some Port St. Joe people
saying "Well, that cleans up the Korean mess,
now we can sit back and relax again"-or words
to that effect.
That's just what we can't do. If you will just
stop and think back, that's exactly what occurred
a little over five years ago when World War II
was ending in the Pacific. Everybody told every-
body else that we were not going to repeat the
mistakes khat followed World War I-we weren't
going to be so rash as to cut our occupation
armies. After all we were going to have to stay
in the world's danger zones-and stay there in
strength for many years. Meanwhile, because
we all had seen that national selfishness had
ruined the dreams that followed 1918, we were,
sure that the leading nations of the world would
follow the road of co-operation.
We were all going around slapping each other
on the back and saying "Peace, it is wonderful!


Returns From Visit In Georgia
Mrs. J. T. Ricketson returned Mon-
day from Georgetown, Ga., where
she visited with her Sister and fam-
ily, Mr. and: Mrs. R. R. Knighton.
Mrs. Kniighton is convalescing from
a recent operation.

The newspaper has been called
the common man's university.


Absolutely wonderful! No longer will politicians
act as politicians; no longer will Communists fol-
low the party line; no longer will the greedy
covet; no longer will war-mongers war-monger."
And look what happened. We fell back into
the same sense of security, withdrew our army
from Korea, cut down our armed forces, put our
vast fleet into mothballs, and kerwham-Stalin's,
menials start grabbing!
What we should have been saying five years
ago was: "Talk is cheap, and anyone will hold
out a hope. But the price of peace-like the price
of war-is high." And, as we all now know, the
price steadily has gone higher in these last five
years. Greedy nations are still greedy; politicians
still act like politicians; Communists are still at
work boring from within; our bureaucrats up in
Washington continue to -throw away the tax-
payers' dollars in great gobs for unnecessary and
unwanted agencies and bureaus with their tens
of thousands employes who are kept on the pay-
roll in the hope of assuring return of the admin-
istration to power at the next election.
If any question remains in anyone's mind as to
the need for the strictest possible economy in
government, the grim march of recent events
must have answered it. This country is now com-
mitted to a policy of active resistance to Com-
munist aggression. It is a policy whose cost no
one can as yet estimate.
In the light of this, how can further waste and
unnecessary domestic spending be counten-
anced? In a world struggle for survival, there is
no room for the welfare state, for government
pampering of the individual. Government has its
hands full, and more, with desperately difficult
tasks which only government can handle. At this
time, of all times, it must keep to its proper con-
stitutional duties.


A woman is a woman, and she doesn't aim to
be anything else.
