make last week's Star, said:
"I can promise the people only
one thing-that I will do my dead-
level best to be a good judge. I

tion set for October 14 is Vincent
C. Giblin of Miami.

for Third Annual


Gulf County Fair


Prospects Looking Good for
Event To Be Bigger and
Better Than Ever

With the nearing of the Third
Annual Gulf County Fair, October
20 to 25, the various committees are
actively readying plans for the vari-
ous divisions of the event, and a
copy of the premium list has been
mailed to'all interested residents of
the county.
While a large number of exhibits
undoubtedly will be entered, as in
past years, it is the desire of the
fair organization that all who have
received the premium list will make
at least one entry. There, are 240
different items listed.
It is anticipated there will be an
outstanding exhibit of cattle and
hogs, since great improvement has
been made in this line in the county
during the past few years.
While crops suffered some dam-
age from the recent drought and
hot weather, damage was not too
serious, according to County Agent
'Cubie Laird, and there should be
some good exhibits of farm crops.
The women's division has ,been
carefully planned under the direc-
tion of Miss Ruth Milton, county
home demonstration-agent,.-and her
able assistants, afid will: include.
the usual entries ,of canned fruits
and meats, handicraft, and such.
The Lee Amusement Company,
the same outfit that played at last
year's fair, will make up the mid-
way and provide the chills, and
thrills of rides and shows which go
to make up a fair for both young
and old.
In the past, no provision has been
made for commercial displays, but
this year space will be provided for
home appliance displays, automo-
tive displays and the like.

News of Port St. Joe High School
By MARTHA COSTING
Activity Periods
A new system has been started
to encourage the students to take
part in extra-curricular activities.
Half a day each Wednesday is de-
voted toward time for these activi-
ties. This year a student may be-
long to two or more clubs, depend-
ing upon the time of meeting. Many
new clubs have been organized, in-
cluding Junior Pep Club, Sports-
man Club, International Relations,
Pen Pal Club, and several others,
which offer a well-rounded pro-
gram. This will enable each student
to develop interest in whatever
type of club he may choose.
Talent Show October 10
On October 10 at 8 p. m. the stu-
dent council is sponsoring a talent
show. The event will be a rather
unusual one. The theme is "Show-
boat," and ,the talent will be worked
around that. The show will be held
mt the elementary school auditor-
ium and tickets will be 25c and 50c.
Come out for an evening of fun.
Improvements
The students are truly thankful
to the county school board for the
new improvements in our building.
'Signs were recently placed over
the doors of all rooms telling what
they are used for. A new water
cooler has been placed in the hall
for the use of physical education
students, many 'of the rooms have
new desks, and work on new class-
rooms has started. The students
wish to acknowledge all of this and
to thank the board members.

Our Country y Right or Wroen

IKE CAN CLEAN HOUSE FOR US
(Reprinted from Wakulla County News)
The Clay and Columbia county Democratic
delegations put their finger on somethingthat
had been bothering us for some time. For the
past several years we have been increasingly
ashamed that we were a Democrat. We had lost
sight of the fact that there are two levels of the
party-that of .our state of Florida, and the na-
tional Democratic party.
We have read the national platforms in recent
years and wondered how we could swallow the
stuff ladeled out in the name of the party. We
have watched good rien from our state go to
Washington and be whipped into line or kicked
out of Washington, and felt ashamed. We have


hoped that somehow we of the Democratic party
would clean our own house and straighten out
our own affairs, but apparently this is not pos-
sible. And the Clay and Columbia Democratic
groups are pointing out that we are not leaving
the party by voting for Eisenhower, but that the
national party has left us and left us little choice.
It is a dirty thing to do-to get things in an
unholy mess and then insist that someone else
pitch in and clean up the place. But, since the
General appears to be both willing and even
anxious to do just this-then we are going to add
our little "X" and say: "Brother, you asked for
it, and here it is!"

For a young fellow trying to get along, Sena-
tor Richard Nixon has made considerable Ameri-
can history as this is written and his chances
for making still more could hardly be better.
What looked like a tempest in a teapot, launched
by a pinko newspaper and blown up to hurri-
cane proportions by Fair Deal politicos, has
changed its course, as such storms often do, and
at this moment, is tearing the Stevenson com-
placency to shreds.
Tomorrow is the last day to register if you
want to cast your vote for president November 4.

Treasury Secretary John L. Snyder, in a 25-
page "Report To Taxpayers," says the bureau of
internal revenue is now "a rejuvenated and
strong. organization. The inference is that after
firing 174 employes and taking collectorships out
of the political plum category, the revenues
aren't going to steal your money ,any more. We
hope, for our own health, the bureau is now as
pure as Snyder reports.

PAY MRE? IOR?



Before this year, if you wanted a big-car ride...


a high-compression engine.. a complete choice


of interior-exterior appointments ... or a curved


one-piece windshield and a car-wide rear window,


you had to pay hundreds of dollars more. Now


FORD offers all these features at no extra cost.


It's the one fine car in the low-price field. Take


10 minutes and "Test Drive' a Ford. You'll agree


... you can pay more but you can't buy better.

TO THE EDITOR


Dear Ed Bill-Somebody finally
got on the ball and started The Star
In my direction. Believe me, it
really helps to know what's going
on around home. You know, it's
Quite a ways from Port St. Joe to
Kyushu, Japan. A lot of the news I
get through the mail, but since
Alex is in Pensacola and my wife is
in Mobile, it's very little that they
know of doings in St. Joe. Anyway,
there's nothing like reading it out
of the home-town paper for myself.
This place isn't so different from
our part of the country. I'm right
on the coast-a peninsula, in fact-
so I feel right at -home. Also it's
the southernmost island in the
group, so I'm in "Rebel" territory.
When you go to town, though, it's
pretty hard to pass the time of day
with the people. One thing for sure,
we get all the latest war news. It's
only 70 miles to the Korean main-
land, which is much too close to
suit me.
Anyway, I thought I'd drop you
a few lines to let. you know that
The Star is getting here and that
it really does-boost my morale 100
per cent.
FRANK YOUNG.
(Your dad put your name in the
pot, Frank-so thank him.-Ed.)

Sharks In Win Over
Apalachicola 7 To 6
By FRANCES SMITH
The Port St. Joe Sharks beat Ap-
alachicola here last Friday night by
a score of 7-6. It was the first home
football game for the Sharks, and
approximately 1000 rooters turned
out to see the hard-fought game.,
Bobby Carrin of Apalach scored
the first touchdown in the second
quarter 'but the extra point was,
missed on a bad snap from center.
The' Sharks came back after the
half with extra energy, and Robei-t
Walters, quarterback, crossed the
line for six points and the extra
point, which spelled the .win, was


OTTO-


Looks like Otto is going to be like the fellow who had
a cow and fed her sawdust, colored green. Just when
the cow got so she could eat the sawdust, she died .
