For some it has slipped up stealithly and with a sudden surprise. For the kids it's behind sche- dule. This year, as usual, the Merchants Associa- tion is planning to have Santa Claus visit our city and present gifts to the children. We think this is a wonderful gesture on the part of the merchants toward our young folks. We have noticed that the legend of Santa Claus has died down in the past .few years. Anything we can do to keep this tradition alive and thus keep up som of the joy of Christmas for our children should be done. Maybe, it seems silly to some of us, but just think back to when you were a child and eagerly expecting and waiting for the visit from old. Saint Nick that you waited 365 whole days for. We think it's a necessary tradi- tion to keep alive. t STARDUST and MOONSHINE h ihi By Col. W. S. Smith, Retired. Mayor of Buckhorn Well, well and well!

I came up here to Georgia weigh- ing a neat 180 (?-ed.) pounds (of' course, I would like that to read 165, but just seems I can't make that), but today I'll be willing to bet that I've already passed., he 185-pound mark Scrambled eggs, hot biscuits, bacon, ham, wild grape jelly and what-not for breakfast Baked pork ham, sweet potatoes, fresh vegetable salad, gravy, hot biscuits and home-made butter for lunch . All the above and fruitcake or peach cobbler for dinner How in heck can a guy keep down to 180, let alone endeavoring to his 165? Jist ain't be done! Well, I contributed my little bit to the economy of Georgia last Friday One of Doc's sons, Robert. who has about 300 acres hereabouts, asked us if we wanted SAME SUBJECT-STILL URGENT Maybe this is the same subject as last week but we think that we cannot harp on it too much. Our rherchants are doing all in their pow- er to build our town. They need your help. How? All you have to do is to do your buying RIGHT HERE IN PORT ST. JOE. Maybe you reason along these lines. "Sure the merchants are urging trade at home to build their busi- ness." But, by building their business, you are also building our city and increasing the ser- vices the city can offer. After all our merchants pay a good percentage of the property taxes of the city. We think it is a known fact that the city taxes give us a good portion of our benefits here. The more you trade with your local mer- chants, the more you will increase your civic opportunities and the services that your mer- chants can offer you. How many of us would go beyond our neighbor's house to borrow a cup of sugar? Why not use this same logicin our buy- ing and trade with our next door neighbors, our local businessman'. Don't be fooled. What a merchant charges you for a product is a long way from being all profit. This year, let's see if we can't break' down and HELP OURSELVES and do our buying right here in Port St. Joe. To borrow a slogan, "Just See The Difference Trading At Home Makes". Home Makes." We guarantee you'll be amazed at your savings and at the growth of our city. After all, we live here, and we had just as well spend what' we earn trying to better our town instead of neighboring 'towns. When the government undertakes to provide a living for any person or a group of people, the cost of that living must come out of the work and the earnings of other people. And, that sort of living comes high for the people who foot the bill through taxation.-Weatherly, Pa., Herald. Faces are easier made up than minds. to go out and. help him sow his winter oats. We told him we didn't mind sowing winter oats, but that if he wanted m'e to help him 'sow wild oats, he was about 25.years too late. (F:ober-r a done sowed his wild oats, for as we vrite this, he's expecting a Robert I, although his wife, Doris, says t's going to be a girl) Any- vay, we drove his Farm-All tractor vith seeder attached around an eight-acre field and folks, we ain't going to do it again! .

This month, tfib month of -December, is our best time to ilant shrubs and bulbs. Although f.,ll planting in the North continues rip unt'" the time when the grouni treezes, summer planting goes on 15 years old we used to pilot one: "' aU"LuusL h4C Uecausl < Lnu of those old-time Caterpillar trac-lrew and better methods of hand tors that sloughed along at about 1rig plants. We in the South firdi five miles an hour. Thev laid their our greatest planting activity in own track, and the ride was fairly December and June. even But, folks, one of these !We. of course, have the advan- modern stepped-up farm tractors stage of getting a head start in our wil! give you a pain in the planting instead of waiting antil . Well. let's not say just where spring. By planting now, plants the pain is, but anyway, those ba- bies are some rough riding. Doc has a flock, or a bevy, or a grove-whatever you want to call 'em-of pecan trees, and we've been out picking up the nuts . If we stayed here very long we'd be ready to be prc:nrre-a for Christ- mas pecan-fed hams, for every 20 pecans we pick up we eat at least three and, folks, those things are loaded with calories, or am- phibians. or whatever it is makes you fat! Don't imagine Wesley is saving too much space for this, so will sign off, and hope to give you an- other'column-not next week, per- haps, tat the week following-from Birmingham. Passenger Cars Steam heated passenger cars, doing away with stoves or hot water heaters, were introduced in 1881. Passenger cars were greatly improved in 1903 by the introduc- tion of the vapor system of heating. With this system, live steam from the steam train line is reduced to vapor at atmospheric pressure and admitted to heating coils inside the car. -----+---__--- Heavy Sleeping Blankets In the eight hours you spend sleeping each night, your breathing lifts the bedclothes 7,000 times. That takes energy! Lightweight bedclothes, however, will 'cut the energy spent in pushing up those bedclothes 7,000 times. will begin to grow and mature earlier in the spring. This is an ex- cellent time for new home owners to put greenery into the ground to take away the bare look of the property. The old settled property owner, however, takes this time to do all the planting he has been putting off all summer. Now is a good rime to shift hardy shrubs and,put in the flowering shrubs you plan for beautification. To be specific, young and budding aaa- leas and camellias will do well now. Hydrangeas that will bloom later in the spring do very well if put out this month. A word on landscaping. Watch the plants that you put in the ground many years ago. They may have outgrown their original pur- pose. Around one-story 'ranch or cottage type houses a newer and slower-growing shrub may suit your purpose better. Replace your tall shrubs to keep your landscap- ing effect up with the changing times. A natural and informal look to foundation planting has taken the place of the more formally laid out design of ten years ago. Word of warning on ever- greens. Don't fertilize evergreen shrubs during the winter months. Don't prune them either except to remove dead or diseased branches. These two practices will give your shrubs new growth which might be killed by the first frost. We can safely recommend that you trans- plant evergreens provided you keep them well watered after trans- ETAOIN SHRDLU by WESLEY R. RAMSEY We have noticed in the many papers throughout the state that we trade with. that the editors try filling a little space and get in a few little items that might make interesting reading under the by- line of their own. These columns have various and sundried names. some of which refer to something or other and some names, we know, must have been thought of in a dream or maybe a nightmare. Any- way, this column will have the old standby "space filler" of all lino- type operators, ETAOIN SHRDLU. If you want to know what that means, just drop by our shop some day to shoot the breeze a while and we will be glad to show you. You should have been to the fire at the Bay View Hotel the other day, "Red" Fuller was run- ning around with just the pants of his fire fighting suit on. (Over his other clothes, of course). If his was hair was just black instead of red and just a mite more of it, he would have looked just like "Riddles Barlow" in the Snuffy Smith comical strip, what with -hose oversized overalls on. We noticed in some big head- lines in a daily paper, the other ,day that some scientist over' in Denmark has made a:woman out of' a naon .now.thar nlt-o,; like a waste of good talent to us. It looks like someone with that much knowhow \ought to be operating on someone who is mortally ill and planting. You can keep that brown look from creeping into your lawn by sowing a little Winter Rye and dressing it with pulverized soil. Rye should remain green', until May by which time your regular grass should be getting green again. Don't forget to mow as so, in as the Rye is tall enough. This en- courages branching and gives you a denser lawn. This is the time of year when gardening comes into the house, so next month we'll, have some in- formation on house plants. nsP :h.e ai:ention of a good s. geon. Sort of makes you begin I believe in Frankenstein doesn't. We have read so much abo Editor Earl Sellers of Chipley past issues of The Star that x have started reading his colun regularly every week too, (Nar ie of Brainless Babble) and find it right interesting. Of course h s son Jim in Graceville writes a co- umn too. They both have nice look ing weekly efforts. to this paper with the intention ol printing as large a paper as we could of course, but the main thine we are striving for is 100% loca news in our columns. In order tdo have this we are going to need, your help. You might as well get some use out of your telephone for your monthly service rate. S) do it by calling us and telling us about your visitors, trips, parties weddings, and other items of local interest. There is a lot of people in this town and it would take about 10 reporters (which we can't afford) to get all the news and report it as it should be. So con- sider yourself one of the reporters .of The Star and give us a jingle when you know something. After all, it's your paper. Speaking of. fires, Wednesday, during the c'iase of the fire wa- gons to the 'fire in the quarters, the new city fire truck was in the lead, followed by the other city fire truck. BEehind-it was the pow- er truck and behind it we were churning tip the road. We parked about a quarter, of a block behind the lead fire truck and by the time we walked to its position, there were two fire hoses in play on the blaze. Fast work isn't it. .The Chiistmas season is defin- itely here, all the merchants are decking out their emporiums in all the appropriate bunting. ---.-^--S---- Screens Out Dust No matter how clean your home, there's bound to be some dust in the air.

Patrol Director H. N. Kirkman said today that speed to either ex- treme can be, and more often than wanted is, a killing factor. The fellow who pleasure-drives on the highways, often holding up long lines of traffic, is going to feel the effect of intensified pa- trol "enforcement action" which the director has ordered. The legal limit of speed in Flor- ida is fixed by law. Sixty MPH in the daytime and 50 MPH at night. with regulated speed limitations in restricted areas. "While excessive and unlawful speed on the highways of the state continues to cause deaths at an alarming rate, the highway slow- poke is a contributor of very def- inite proportions," declared the di- rector. Re-emphasizing his remarks with figures to prove them, Kirkman said "In 1951 there were 54,000 acci- dents in Florida; 10,127 were caused by improper passing and following too closely. Those acci- dents caused 57 deaths." "It is safe.to assume that in both instances of cause, there were many slowpoke drivers indirectly involved, although only 18 persons who were in the 'slow drivers' classification were directly involved in 1951 wrecks." In some areas of Florida, local traffic'.laws 'have been activated to regulate traffic movement by a maximum speed, and enforcement officials report satisfying results. ------><----- -K Color Blindness Color blindness is a relatively un- important factor in highway acci- dents. Inability to, distinguish red from green is the most common form of color blindness, but stop lights have sufficient yellow in the Sred and sufficient blue in the green Sto prevent confusion.

NO UNEMPLOYED IN GULF COUNTY FOR THIS WEEK TA1LLAHASSEE, Nov. 28-Re- ports from 49 out of the 67 coun- ties in Florida report total 'wdekly unemployment insurance payments of $126,429 to 6,255 unemployed for an average check of about $18.50 the week ending November 21, ac- cording to a report by Chairman Raymond E. Barnes of the Florida Industrial Commission. This is a slight increase in employment and a n increase o f approximately $5,000 in weekly payments over the previous week. In the same period of 1951, some 5,146 claiments received only $89,- 702. In this county none received un- employment benefit payments. ---K HIGHLAND VIEW WMU HAS XMAS WEEK OF PRAYER The Highland View Baptist WMU Lottie Moon Christmas week of prayer opened with everyone singing "Hark The Herald Angels Sing." The scripture lesson was taken from Luke 21;21, John 3;16 and Romans 5:8. The program theme was "Lovest Thou Me and Feed My Sheep". There were S members present. Mrs. T. O. Richards closed the meeting with prayer. Acorn Crop Assures Good Squirrel Crop. A good acorn crop during the past year has helped Florida's squirrel population and hunting for this species this year should be better than the last shooting sea- son, it was stated Tuesday by bio- logists of the Game and Fresh Wa- ter Fish Commission. There are three species of squir- rel here in the state, with two of them the grey or cat squirrel and the fox squirrel considered game animals. The flying squirrel, found everywhere but in the sou- thern part of the state, is non-pro tected. Smaller of the two game spE. cies, the grey squirrel is found chiefly in dense, broad-leaved for. ests and cypress swamps. The fox squirrel is an open pinewoods ani- mal and falls as easy prey to hun- ters. Fox squirrel's are slow and awkward in 'their movements and are considered to be inferior to the grey squirrel in- sporting qual- ities and popularityy as game ani- mals. -*---------- --- University Makes Report On State Medical Needs The final results of a study of medical needs and iesourc'es- of Florida made by the University of Florida will be presented to the 1953 legislature, but already the University is being praised for its work. Th. University received a $96,- 500 grant from the Commonwealth Fund to help meet expenses of the study. In its annual report pub- lished this week, the Fund author- ities state, "The University of Florida is thinking like a univer- sity." The study is under the direction of Dr. Russell S. Poor, and many outstanding figures in medicine and allied fields are associated.with him. Star Want Ads Get Results For Christmas delivery- 4 Harley- Davidso- See the new Harley-Davidson 165 today.

Kiwanians Hear Rev. Billy Daniel Wednesday Kiwanians were treated to a very fine address on Wednesday noon by fellow club member, Rev. Billy Daniel. According to club president, Mickey Stone, Bro. Billy gave members much "food for thought". Using two well known and often used American words, "indepen- dence" and "freedom", as his topic, Rev. Daniel presented convincingly his argument that the word "in- dependence" is completely false as regarding man's relationship with man and nation with nation. "This word should be discarded and the word "interdependence" substituted. Neither individual nor nation can exist independently of the other in this modern world," was the substance of his talk. As for liberty, Bro. Billy cited mem- bers to the following passages in the Bible: Luke 2:13-14; John 8: 31, 32. In closing, Rev. Daniel called upon club members to exercise especially at the Christmas season, the good will that brings peace among men,--the good will that .eapot comIe front the application' CARD OF THANKS CARD OF THANKS I wish to express my apprecia- to our friends for taking care of our furniture and valuables while we were away during the occasion when our house burned.
