State Launches Forest Fire Prevention Plan Less Than 2 Percent of Protected Land Was Burned; More 50 Percent of Unprotected . Florida's annual forest fire pre- vention campaign was launched this year on November 24, State Forester C: H. Coulter-announced Monday. Each year when wild fires destroy our woodlands which fur- nish the raw material for one of Florida's three largest income producing industries, the cost to the people of Florida runs into the fi;llions of dollars. To prevent this crippling situa. tion, he added, all citizens must shoulder the responsibility of pre- venting woods fires. He pointed out that nine out of ten wild fires are started carelessly or delibe:- ately by man. And if man can stare these fires, man can prevent them, he asserted. Due to dry conditions of the woods and the carelessness of peo- ple, several of our neighboring states just experienced their worst fires in recent years. Although some parts of Florida are as dry as our neighboring states, we hav.: Tapper Company Receives Power Company Rates Several Road Contracts U r I igi Under Investigation Several road and bridge building contracts were let this week in Tallahassee for various parts of the state.

The power companies involved are Florida Power Corporation, Flor- ida Power and Light Company, Gulf Power Company and Tampa Electric Company. The Commission announced Mon- day morning it had issued direc- tives to these companies requiring that certain operating and statis- tical data "be prepared and certi- fied by duly authorized certified public accountants," and presented to the Commission not later than January 1, 1953. The four companies under in- vestigation furnish electricity in nearly .all counties of the state.

Homecoming Day At High School' Sees Big Parade High School Band; Many Colorfu- Floats Are Highlights In Big Homecoming Event Friday afternoon of last week saw the delight of everyone both young and old on the streets of Port St. Joe. A parade. The par- ade was the starting of the big Homecoming ceremonies of the Port St. Joe High School which were carried on through the re- mainder of the day and were cul- minated at the -big Homecoming football.game at Centennial Field last Friday night. The parade started at the Port St. Joe Grammar School and pro- ceeded up Long Avenue and thence to Reid Avenue which carried it on through the main part of the town. Accompanying the parade was an impressive array of floats and banners depicting different scenes and occasions. Both the parade and the floats were entirely the work of the high school students with different or- ganizations and clubs at the school sponsoring and building the floats. The parade was led throughout its trek by a motor scooter escort and the high school band. Follow- ing in convertible were the Home- coming/ Queen, Ruth Coe and the football cAtitain, ',Bb" Bray. Fol- Slowing them were the floats.- : A contest was held to judge the - rioUs' floats and the prices were received as follows: First place went to the Intramural Board with their "Shark Bait". Second place went to the girls': .sportsman club with a 'boat scene. Third place was taken by the student council depict- ing a beach scene. The judges were J. R. Smith, J. T. Simpson, and W. S. Smith. The first three place winners were also displayed at the Homecoming football game last Friday night. Boyles Does It Again! Another Dollar Days Boyles Department Store is up to its special bag of tricks again this week. That can mean only one thing; a Dollar Day sale. This sale is supposed to have some real whing-ding bargains according to R. G. Boyles, genial owner of the store. Another wrinkle in this week's sale is that the Boyles store will remain open until 8:00 p.m. Fri- day evening to better serve the public during this sale. As usual, you will find the many bargains on page three of this is- sue. -----+-r-~-- HOLIDAY HOUSES TO BE GARDEN CLUB PROJECT A Trail of Holiday Houses will be 'a Christmas project of the Gar- den Club this year.

The im- .nressive exhibition of Christmas decorations displayed at the Parish House, Thursday, Nov. 13, by Mrs. E. P.

Lavish use of greenery and ribbon was seen in almost every piece. Three beautiful tables were set in the holiday spirit, using color combinations of red and white green and gold and a very unusual one of yellow and orchid. The meeting was arranged by the Azalea Circle of the Garden Club with the co-operation of the Gladioli Circle. A large crowd attended includ- ing groups from Panama City, Blountstown.

The president, Mrs. Ronald Childers, called the meeting to or- der and asked Harry McKnight to present the Constitution and By- Laws to the group for adoption. The objectives of the organization are as follows: 1. To assist, whenever necessary, any type f .health and safety pro- gram in the area. 2. To co-ordinate, as far as pos- sible, the work of all organiza- tions concerned with public health. 3. To stimulate interest and edu- cate the public in health problems and their solution. 4. To study health needs and de- velop a community health program relative to those needs. 'Mr. L. H. Peterson, executive representing American Cancer So- ciety, Florida Division, showed a challenging picture. entitled "Man Aside". Mr. Peterson's program was 'both interesting and thought provoking as it forcibly empha- sized the necessity of consulting a doctor immediately when cancer signals appear. After the program the hostess, Mrs. Tapper, assisted by Mrs. Cecil Costin, served refreshments. Those present were: Mrs. Ron- ald Childers, Mrs. Henry Geddie, Mrs. Paul Fensom, Mrs. Alton Dendy, Mrs. W, H. Howell, Mrs. C. G. Costin, Mrs. Chauncey Cos- Tops all pickups!

The spoken word is lost; the printed word remains. Our Country Right or Wrong ARE YOU WITH US? We have noticed in the past that the citi- zens of Port St. Joe recognize only three seasons in the year instead of the customary four. These are football season, basketball season and base- ball season. In years past our town has had sporting teams to be proud. In our estimation they were second to none. The town has sup- ported them to the utmost degree. So it is quite obvious that the citizens of our town like good sporting events and will patronize and help in the .performance of such events. We believe that no other town in this part of the state has such a record of support. In the instance of our basketball teams of the past. No outstanding record has been made but the teams have' won a good average of the games played; their playing spirit was good be- cause the entire town was behind them and knew it. So what happened, the team had eidecent place to play in so a brand spanking g:in glmiiLi.ii was built. Now, we weren't d ,n liv'inc in Florida at the time but we do not suspect that the basketball team was the pri- mary reason for building the Centennial Au- ditorium but the thought was obviously there, since the main part of the Auditorium is com- posed by a basketball court. Then came the forming of the Saints. When we lived here before, they were the hottest thing in this part of the state. But, they had no, place to play except a former ball field that had been let go to pot and was next to impossi- ble to reclaim. Nevertheless, the team went on inning pennant after pennant year after year despite their worn out playing field. Why? Be- cause the stands were filled to capacity for ev- ery game. So what did the people do but build one of the best ball parks in -the state for the Saints to perform their tricks on. Now comes the bitter bit!. For some years the Port St. Joe High School has fielded a fair football team on a fair field. But for the past few years there has been a gradual improvement in the team as the young boys in the lower grade's who started their training a few years ago come into their own in the higher grades and take over the pigskin for the alma mater. We think STARDUST and MOONSHINE By Col. W. S. Smith, Retired Mayor of Buckhorn Ha-! We've really got it on Earl Sellers, Washington county news- paper tycoon. We've "retired" and he's still plugging along and en- deavoring to create the illusion that he really works Don't imagine many people believe him, especially when he puts in type the many fishing trips he allegedly goes on. Anyone with a lick of sense could figure out that six fishing expeditions a week leaves but one day to get out his paper, which is.one of the outstanding publications in this section of Florida No, we're quite sure that Earl does very little labor, but we'll give him credit for em- ploying exceptionally good work- men who know their stuff. Anyway, Earl has this to say in regard to our "retirement": "It was with a deep feeling of regret that we read last week in the Port St. Joe Star that the edi- tor and founder of tlie Star, our friend of long standing, Bill Smith has sold out and intended retiring to his 'Stardust Lodge' down on that the team will continue to improve because of the program of starting them to practice as soon as they're big enough to hold the ball. This promises many more strong teams. This year's team has chalked up the best record of any eleven-man football team in the history of Port St. Joe. This year it was brought forcibly to the public that the team was in dire need of a new field on which to play. So what is being done? An organization called the "Shark Boost- ers" has been formed to purform this task. And you can bet they'll do it too. We feel confident that a state championship team will be fielded on a brand spanking new, well-sodded, level, sandspur-free football field. After all, that's the only thing to suspect of a team that has done as fine a job as the one per- formed-in this season just finished. So, "don't let your football feelings pass with the football season. Lend a hand to these good citizens who are striving to make this improvement in our town a reality. Let's keep our community improvement achievements in the 1.000 batting column. Don't let your town and your school down. After all, it'll your be your children and my children that will be playing there. Are you with us? If you are, we'll succeed. If not, then we'll fail. JUST A LITTLE CO-OPERATION Congratulations are in order for our local Retail Merchants Association. Something almost unheard of in a small city will be accomplished by our local merchants in next week's edition of The Star. The merchants are CO-OPERATING with each other in putting over a gigantic kick- off sale for the Christmas season. All the stores will have their, Christmas merchandise on the shelves beginning next weekend and- will have numerous special items for you to choose from for your Christmas shopping. Your mer- chants are aslo your next door neighbors too, don't forget. They are just part of our city just as you and I. Since they are just as interested-in our city as you and I are and since they are our friends and neighbors we think it only fitting that everyone do his Christmas shopping right here at home. Whether you realize it or not, you are ac- tually helping yourself by shopping at home. Think of the time you save. Think of the ex- pense you save by not running your car to some other nearby town to do your shopping. Think :bf the convenience of your e-irmn what you'buy before you pay for it, of being able to pick out just the style you want. There are numerous advantages. And then too, the more you shop at home, the less your goods will cost. Why? Because the bigger the volume of business that a merchant does, the less he has to make off a single item and consequently the price of the item is lowered and you reap the saving. It's all very simple. Now, the merchants are bending over back- ward to bring you this early harvest of bargains for your Christmas shopping. They are co-oper- ating with each other to help you to save money and to see that you get what you want. We think it's about time that we tried a little of this co-operating gimmick and shop with our local merchants. We think you'll be.better sat- isfied in the long run. the Dead Lakes. "This can mean but one thing. Bill has made his:pile and now he's gonna be miserable while spending it down on his reservation. "With his announcement, he said that he had sold to a former employee, or as he put it "my one-time helper, Wesley R. Ram- sey.' "He didn't mention whether the railroad he owned in the back room of his shop went with the deal or not. Perhaps he reserved that to move to the reservation, where he can divide his time be- tween running a railroad and go- ing fishing. "We're gonna miss Bill and his brashness which has caused him on more than one occasion to point an accusing finger in this fiserable insect's general direction, or make insinuating remarks about our loafing, etc., etc. Now look who's decided to take up, loafing for a living. "We hate to see Bill go. "We wish for his successor all sorts of luck, and offer only one word of advice, and that is to fol- low closely the pattern set by 'Editor Bill', and success will be his. He can't miss, in other words. "He might even own a lodge down on the lakes too, some day, just lile 'Editor Bill'-and can poke fun too, at some of his news- paper publishing friends. All of this goes with successful success: "Good luck, Wesley, old boy, good luck to you." ---4---- LET THE TERS T( EDITOR ) R - nmmm Editor The Star: The news releases and occas- ional editorial notes which you have carried regarding woods fires and the work of the Florida Forest Service have been of value to us. At the same time we feel that they have been responsible, to a great degree, for holding down fire oc- currence in your area., On behalf of the Florida Forest Service I would like to express appreciation for your spirit of pub- lic service, both during this emer- gency and throughout the year. Your future co-operation in fire prevention work will be welcomed. Please call on us if 'we can make the job easier for you. Sincerely, IRA L.
