PORT ST. JOE A Progressive Community With a Modern, Progressive Weekly Newspaper THE STAR THE STAR Official Paper for Gulf County, Devoted To the SContinued Development of the Entire County "Port St. Joe-The Outlet Port for the Apalachicola-Chattahoochee Valley" VOLUME XV PORT ST. JOE, FLORIDA FRIDAY, OCTOBER 26, 1951 NUMBER 5 Col. McDill Is Guest Speaker At PTA Meet Stresses Fact That St. Joe Has.A Number of Targets and Appeals for Women To Volunteer By MRS. RALPH SWATTS The October meeting of the Port St. Joe Parent-Teacher Association,' held Thursday evening of last week in the auditorium of the elementary school, was of unusual importance and interest. . October being "carnival month," plans for the annual affair were presented in detail by the carnival chairman, Mrs. Maxine Swain, and the program, presented by Mrs. Ralph Nance, was the first step of' the committee on civil defense, led by B. B. Scisson, in the promotion of the new project adopted by the' P.-T. A. in the September meeting. The guest speaker, Lieut. Col. Wilfred 'E. McDill from Tyndall Field, brought to the membership and visitors plans for the civil de- fense program in Florida, elaborat- ing on the part which Northwest Florida, and Gulf county in partic- ular, is-to play in this project. MoDill, wing personnel officer at Tyndall, told his listeners that wo- men will probably be called upon to furnish up to 80 per cent of the maximum services needed by civil defense, not only for the counties, but for 'the district and state units. "The call of the armed forces and industry for manpower," he said, "will make'the services of the wo- men more vital than ever before in this country." Getting close to home, the colonel said that there are targets in St. Joe worthwhile to the enemy, and the possibility exists that they could be on the bombing list. The local by-laws were amended to meet the requirements of the Florida Conference, and the presi- dent was authorized to appoint del- egates to the state convention to be held in Jacksonville, Nov. 13-15. Music for this occasion, in addi- tion to the song led by Mrs. Swain, was supplied by Virginia Swatts, who played a piano medley from the music of Ralph Federer. Attendance prizes were awarded to Mrs. Pervis Howell and Mr. Goff. A variety of delicious sandwiches and drinks were served to approxi- mately 250 people. Attendance at the first two meetings has been ex- cellent, .and it is hoped that "open house" at the high school in No- vember will draw an even better crowd. Expect To Return To Miami Mr. and Mrs. J. L. Hardy expect to leave today to return to their home in Miami after a month's va- cation here with their daughter and family, Mr. and Mrs. C. C. Williams. They have been enjoying fishing at the Williams fish camp.

GARDEN NOTES PORT ST. JOE GARDEN CLUB Pansy Planting Select a well-drained location in full sun or partial shade. The ground should .be loose and viable with plenty of humus. Dig at least eight inches deep, pulverize the soil well and mix the plant foods in thor- ougly. A 'bed 5x5 feet or 2x12 feet should be prepared for 100 plants. Ten Ibs. of sheep manurs, 5 Ibs. of bone meal, 10 lbs. of cold smoke and 1 bag of peat humus will be re- quired. iSet plants at the same level they have been growing, as shown by the soil-line. Avoid overwatering. Heat and too much water are fatal to pansies. While plants are small, dust beds weekly with spergon or semesan to prevent damp-off. If aphids or thrips attack flowers and new growth, use a good spray. A light application of plant food twice a month will give larger, finer Iblooms: Keep the ground around the plants well cul- tivated and aerated. -*- Humans are seldom subject to at- tack from a bear unless it has been wounded, cornered or is acting in defense of its cubs.

A couple of weeks ago the editor of The Star wrote an editorial titled "Pig Cancels Welfare Check," which was picked up and reprinted by a number of papers throughout the state. Florida's old age checks went out again this month after being held up a short while due to the federal government threatening to cut off its appropriation if oldsters were allowed to keep a cow, or a pig, or chickens, but the federal se- curity agency still wants proof that those old folks lucky enough to have those animals and fowls won't be making a profit out of/the com- bination. A 1951 Florida law allows pensioners to have these items. Federal rules say they mustn't give the pensioner a net gain, otherwise he isn't en- titled to aid. The state is endeavoring to produce proof that no profit will result in order to keep the cash coming from the federal pork barrel. This week Senator George Smathers joins with the editor of The Star and, we hope, every other newspaper publisher in Florida, in lambasting the stand of the federal agency. "I am offering my services to State Welfare Commissioner Sher- wood Smith in an effort to be of assistance in any way possible in presenting the state's case," said Smathers in Washington. "In my opinion it would be ridiculous to forbid the elderly people of our state to produce, by their own efforts and initiative, some of their own food and so to aug- ment their meager pensions." 'Ray for Senator Smathers, say we. Maybe we ought to call this new candidate's law a common-law marriage act-because when a guy declares himself to be a candidate-he is, and must immediately qualify. This is going to shut up a lot of folks who normally holler that they are candidates, until the time to qualify- and then never qualify. It is going to be both amusing and confusing, but we like it. In short, you can't propose to the public and then skip out. Us gals are gonna like that.-Wakulla Co. News.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Wake Island. Dear Editor Bill-Just a few lines to tell you that The Star is the very .best reading that can be found out here on Wake Island. All the boys in my crew here just wish that the paper could be twice as large as it is now, with much more news from around our neck o' the woods there, because, some of them were sta- tioned near St. Joe at one time and really like the little town and the many friendly people there. I'm still on the Air Force crash boats, 'but the kind of boating I am really interested in can only be done right there at home in Lake Wimico. I'll close now by saying "Keep up the good work," and I'll be wait- ing for The Star and news of home. 'T/SGT.

In fact, if it hadn't been for his un- stinted giving of his time the dis- plays probably would have been only about half as big. And the funny part' about f't was that he doesn't belong to the AmericanLe- gion, which sponsors the fair . Anyway, he. dropped in at The Star shop last week and informed us (we being secretary of the fair associa tion) that he had brought in the necessary lumber for the display racks, that he had paid for it him- self (over $100), that he was donat- ing it to the Legion, Wiat they could build racks with it, toss it out into the street or -use it for firewood, but that's as far as he was going on the fair this year. .. Oh, yeah? SHe's been out on the lot and in the Legion hall building this, that and then like nobody's busi- ness Bet we couldn't keep him away with a shotgun. .Any- how, we're giving Parker a great big leather medal for his co-opera- tion, and we only wish there were a dozen more like him. * 'Sez Joe Malpas in the Wakulla County News: "Few things are as pleasant and as enjoyable as that lovely, lovely moment on a cold winter night, when a guy stands up in the middle of his room, shrugs his shoulderS and lets his longies fall off. We never could understand why any garment as hard to get on, as a set of longies, could, in the course of a day, become twice as large as it was originally." * Just can't git away from this guy Joe Malpas of the Wakulla County News: iSez he, again:' "Years ago we heard a very young lady suggest to her playmate, .'Let's play mama and papa!' "The playmate, who was rather a tough' boy of around five, shook his head and answered, 'Naw, that's too rough. Let's play 'football.' "We, always thought that was funny-but maybe there is a lot of truth in the boy's statement, for we note 'in the St. Joe Star that the girls of the Port St. Joe school are now playing football, no less. If you youngsters don't mind, we'd. like to say, thank 'goodness our wooin' days are over. But then, on the other hand, maybe it would:be plumb romantic trying to smooch the star of the backfield, or betting how many yards your best gal could, kick you if you tried to sneak a kiss ortwo. And, still, on the other hand, we are still glad that what the novelists call the 'romantic days' are over." SCHOOL HEADS ASKED TO JOIN RECRUIT DRIVE Florida's colleges and universi- ties are training less than half the teaches needed to staff classrooms. That picture was given last Friday by Dr. J. Ballard Simmons, Univer- sity of Florida professor of dff- campus instruction, in an address at the state county school superin- tendents' conference held in Gaines- ville. Most of Florida's teachers now come from other states, he said, and urged the superintendents to join in the program to recruit high school students for teaching jobs.

According to the 'story,' a quan- tity 'of timber'.'lia' to be removed and the ground under the .building treated with chemicals to a con- siderable depth. It 'seems to me that this is sym- bolic of what has happened to the nation itself 'since the Declaration of Independence was signed in that famed building. I am sure if the founders 6of this 'great republic could compare the'present day ver- sion of 'the -United States 'of 'Atner- ioa with the blueprint they used in its creation,.they would turn over in their graves and weep salty tears.

How the termites managed to do all that damage \to Independence Hall is not a matter of record, but if you ask me, it could have been brought about by the gain of con- trol by one political group of ter- mites that sneered at everything. the Hall stood for, cunningly cre- ated race and class hatred, formed countless :alphabetical 'bureaus em- powered to cripple free enterprise and destroy States Rights.

The chairman of their political clique kept a tele- phone:1lsa~dy so that if the boys in the lower -bracketididn't jump when the whip was cracked he could get 'em told-and quick. There must have 'been some dis- loyal termites in the outfit who were ready and willing to make a !deal with foreign termites and make it possible for them to join the local group in wrecking the Hall. These termites, on the inside of the administration, were in atpo- :sition to provide the foreign ter- mites with secret information and help them get a foothold in Inde- pendence Hall, which was marked for destruction. For nearly 200 years, termites in Independence Hall lrad 'been obliged to chew their own wood, anil create their own sadiust 'by the sweat of Figuring On Building?

Months of Spring Color Possible from Daffodils Daffodils, first major flowers to blossom in the spring, have been cultivated in gardens almost as long as tulips. While limited in color range, they vary much in form and sea- Eon of bloom. By using all avail- able types, and selecting early, midseason and late varieties,, daf- fodils can be kept blooming dur- ing two spring months. Varieties suitable for garden borders are classified as: Large Trumpets, in which the trumpet is as large as the perianth (surrounding petals). Colors in- clude yellow, white and bicolor, in ments. Among all these types there are some varieties which blossom early, and others which are late, though most varieties blossom be- tween the two extremes. To pro- long the flowering'season it pays to search out these early and. late kinds and make sure that a few of both are included in your plan". ing. Early varieties include: Trum- pet, Aerolite, all yellow; Mrs. E. H.
