Commission


The Port St. Joe City Cominis-
sion met in their regular session
Tuesday with Commissioners Ned-
ley, Tharpe and .Chandler present
along with clerk Henderson. Ma-
yor Belin and city attorney Costin
were absent.

A proposal was put before the
commission to secure a street light
on Monument Avenue at the spot
where the parking lane for the
Methodist Church turns off the
Avenue. It was unanimously car-
ried by the commissioners to in-
stall the light.

'The Commission instructed clerk
Henderson to submit an advertise-
ment to The Star advertising for
bids on 250 ft. of 21/" fire hose and
250 ft. of 11/2" fire hose. The clerk
was also instructed to secure one
4" by 4Y" hydrant coupling and
five fire helmets for the fire de-
partment.

SCommissioner Tharpe asked the
commission to allow the fire de-
partment to use the office space
in the Municipal Building desig-
nated as the city attorney's office,
for a office for the fire department
due to the fact that the city' at-
torney does not use the office.
W. P. Gilbert appeared before the
commission and requested that the
commission ''~ id:' paving I, And
water and sewage, facilities for
.Marvin Avenue relative to its be-
ing developed into a housing pro-

bonding company relative to the
expansion of the water and sewer
system.

John and J. W. Ford appeared
before the commission to ascertain
city dwelling house restrictions rel-
ative to their part of town as they
had reason to believe small build-
ings were going to be pla.-d ne:r.t
-to their dwellings for rent. The
commissioners informed them of
dwelling restrictions and also cit-
ed the city clerk .i instruct any-
one wanting a moving permit to
appear before the commission with
their request.

AN ERROR IN ASSESSMENT
For many years the City of Port St. Joe
has been furnishing fire protection to what is
called the "St. Joe Fire Control District". This
district runs from the county line on the north
to the county line on the South and to the St.
Joe Fire Control Tower on the east.
As a matter of courtesy, these communities
could not be denied the protection by those
who had it to offer. During the past few years
however, the growth of the communities of
Highland View, Oak Grove and Kenney's Mill
has gone on to such an extent that it is cost-
ing the city more to provide protection for these


communities than it is costing to provide-pro-- ly at their meeting-Tuesday night 'Presb"teriin Auxiliary

ETAOIN SHRDLU
by'WESLEY R. RAMSEY'


Mother Nature is going on a ram-
page. Sunday was beautiful, Mon-
day was phew and Tuesday, a won-
derful day. If only we could ar-
range to have every day of the
yeai exactlyy like tuesday was.

A little while back we carried a
:'-sto'y on 'the new building Cecil
,_, postin, Jr., and Frank Hannon are
,;, .constructing. The story stated that
.the front of the building would b,:
of "Roman brick". Ever since that
day we have wondered what in the
world "Roman brick" was,,and now
we know. The stuff looks right
good, too.

During the week we see and hear
of several items to go in this space
and comes time to set it up into
type and half of the information
is forgotten. Never can find a
scratch pad to write it down.

We saw in the County Record at
Blountstown where Wallace Fin-
lay, the editor of that rag, sorta
rushed spring up and went swim-
ming a couple. of Sunday's ago.
According to his "Musings" he
was convinced right quick that
Spring hadn't poked around the
corner quite far enough however,
and he came out of the water
about twice as fast as he went in.

Last Monday night we attended
the barbecue that was whipped up
by.the Gideon Bible Class of the
First BaptiSt Church out at the
Centennial Auditorium.
We decided to forego supper
that particular night and were
glad we did. We started in the
line toward the victuals with a
plate in one hand and made three
slight pauses and came up with a
double handful of chicken and rice
stirred up together, a half a bar-
becued chicken that wasn't done
to a crisp but lust right, about six
"fingers" of barbecued ribs and a
bodacious amount of potato salad.
You talk about something being
'good! All we're waiting for.now is
the next Gideon Bible Class bar-
becue.
A bunch of us were standing
around chewing the rag and come
to find out our school principal,
'H. F. Ayers was formerly a mem-
ber of the Birmingham Fire De-
part. Dave Maddox, Woodrow Hen-
derson and yours truly, all mem-


bers in good standing of the local
fire department, then proceeded to
talk-shop with Mr. Ayers and com-
pare big city fire fighting with our
efforts. It all boiled down to the
fact that your local department is
just about as efficient as the big
city departments, with lots less
equipment; some of it even vitally
necessary equipment.

Did you ever see so many pretty
"sweet young, things" all done up
in Easter finery 'in your life as
there were on .the streets Sunday?

Talk Vbout your super salesmen!
The other day, L. E. Thursby,
dow4 at the Gulf Hardware was
demonstrating a new type lawn
mower to a 'prospective buyer. He
had turned the contraption on'and
let it run awhile to extole on the
virtues of its revolutionized mo-
tor and after a while cut it off and
leaned on the handle, (to show how
strong the mower was) and stood
shooting the bull with his prospec-
tive customer for about three or
four minutes when the customer
happened to glance down and see
that one'of the front wheels was
crooked. "Oh! that's nothing",
quothe L. E., "I can straighten that
in a jiffy". To make a long story
short he reached down to straigh-
ten the wheel and the blade, which
was still turning unseen under-
neath, sliced his finger to the
'bone. The blood and possibly an
epitapth or two flew; but did L. E.
loose his sales acumen? Indeed no.
He looked the customer square in
*the .eye and said, "where else will
you find a lawn mower that will
run that long after it has been cut
off for that price?"
We never did find out if he sold
the mower o rnot.

A GENERAL MOTORS MASTERPIECE


Its Great Name Makes Its Price Remarkable!


aap amm a..


Consider the respect in which the name Pontiac is held
-consider that it's priced right next to the lowest and:
you'll quickly see that here's the greatest car value of all.
That's because Pontiac has always been deliberately'engi-
fieered to provide features of the costliest cars at a'price
any new car buyer can afford.
You see proof of this in Pontiac's distinctive Dual-Streak
styling, its long wheelbase, its easy-to-handle power and
its long-lasting economy.
Come in and let us show you why so low a price on so
great a car represents a truly remarkable value.

There is a revolution brewing
in the fraternal picture of the na-
tion, and the Moose seems to be
the instigator of the revolt.
For many years fraternities
have been synonymous with dlubs
for men, clubs where inen could
,gather for an evening :of feilow-
ship and conviviality, with the
doors closed to outsiders, especial-
ly the families of the members.-
The Moose have started to change
all this, in fact they have midde'
great strides in the 9a'st 'fe'w *yYe'si,
in becoming what th iy oduiid like
to be called, a Family Fraternity.
Malcolm R. Giles, Mooae direc-
tor general, doesn't particularly
like the reference to this change
as a revolution, preferring in
stead, to ca1i, it a fundamental
reconstruction. "It is a rebuilding
program," he said, "or a recogni-
tion of the basic principles of
Americanism, the family circle."
Almost universally Moose lodges
are now sponsoring, family potluck
suppers, family parties, movies,
-amateur theatricals, canasta, bridge
and other card clubs, dances and
other related entertainments. Even

the children are coming in for a
major part of the programming.
Many event' are planned entirely
for the children, from tiny tots on
up to the teen agers.
"The family .fraternity cannot
help but suceCdd, to gain prestige
-in :.a community," said Mr..Giles,
'"aril, oupled ith an ever-increas-
isg civic affairs program 'as prac-
ticed 1y the a 0oo0e, we -lop'e to
lead the way il this reconstru:tion

April Abundance
Fresh spring cabbage and canned
tomato juice are hearliners on the
U. S. Department of Agriculture's
plentiful foods list for April'.~Many '
extra acres were "planted in cab-
bage in several southern site's
this winter. As for canned tomato
juice, grocery shelves will be well
stocked with it.' Quality generally
is high and prices reasonable.
April markets will offer plenty
of variety for main -dish.platters.
There will be an abundance of beef,
also tender young chickens for
broiling or frying, turkeys, fish
fillets and eggs.
Potatoes will be back on the
plentiful list for April-both "old
crop" potatoes, such as those fav-
orite "bakers" from Maine and Ida-
ho, as well as "new crop" potatoes,
favorite for boiling in their jackets.
SGood buys for meatless main
dishes include dry limas and peas
beanusealso peanuts and peanut but-
ter. Dry beans and peanut butter
both are good items for healthy
soups for chilly April days.
Again in April many dairy pro-
ducts will be in heavy supply-
butter, cheddar cheese, cottage
cheese, non-fat dry milk and but-
termilk.
.The abundance and variety of
fats and oils also continues. Plen-

It was pretty late and I
was rolling along over Route
19 with a cargo of assorted
canned goods, bound from
Pensacola to Ocala. The tour-
ist traffic had been thick and
I was way behind schedule.
A few miles out of F'rry, I
began seeing shadows where
there weren't any-shadows-so
I said to myself, "Mac-you
either pull Onto the shoulder
and sleep for fifteen minutes
or you hit a coffee stop." I de-
cided on the latter -and stopped
at Perry.
There were four other cus.
tomers in this greasy spoon.
Two other truck drivers :ard
a teen-ager and. his blonde
date. The truck drivers were
talking.
"So I jammed on my'cinch-
ers," this one truck driver said,
"and just in time, brother. By
inches Lniussed abroom wagon
which hadr dropped a lug."
The blonde raised ihereye-
brows and her 'date looked'be-
wildered.
I chuckled and spoke to
them over my left ,shoulder.
"It's all right,''" said. "We

was&,. :. 'I"'anfinea h my'

brother. By inches I ntisse'd a
nitroglycerine truck which had
stopped to change a tire.'"
The blonde's eyes sparkled.
"It must be exciting," she.
said, "driving those big
trucks."
"Well," I said, "the glamor
wears off. But we feel we're
,doing a.pretty-big-job for-mil-
lions of people-including
you and your boy friend.
Almost everything you see in
here came by truck."
The blonde looked at her
eggs, her coffee, her bread,
and then at the stainless steel
refrigerators and stoves. -
"Why he's right, Jim," she.
said to her boy ..friend. "I
never thought of' that."
I-finiished my coffee, nodded
to her and then said to her
boy friend, "When you hit the
road, don't be a stargazer,
pal?"
''Hih?" he said.-
"Stargazer," I said, "truck-
er's lingo for guys who don't

in no other 'low-priced car!
This. wonderful new feature, optional on all models at
extra cost, marks the most: important advance in driver
convenience and safety since the automatic transmission,
which Chevrolet also introduced into its field.
Power Steering makes steering virtually effortless on all
roads -and at all speeds. It permits you to park, even in a
tight space, .with. finger-tip. ease. It cuts steering effort
approximately 80%; reduces driver fatigue; makes driv-

Watch for Children

Urges H N Kirkman

TALLAHASSEE-In Spring time
children, like flowers, come out
just about everywhere, declared
Commander H. N. Kirkman of the
State Highway Patrol this week.
And that gives us an extra good
reason for being better and more
,careful drivers during the Spring
and Summer months, if for no oth-
-er reason, said Kirkman.
Continuing his appeal for the
inew Spring effort of the motorist,


Kirkman said: "Children, unlike' watch where your own vehicle is


,flowers, don't always stay put, so
that is why the motorist can expect
-and nearly always get-the un-
expected from our children."
Pretty soon now school will be
out for the summer, and extra pre-
cautions should be taken to safe-
guard the children who will be
darting unexpectedly from behind
"almost everything" and right out
into the path of your auto, Kirk-
man declared.
Here are a few tips the motor-
ist can well and profitably heed:
1. Be on the alert in zones where
children are .expected to be at
pla.
2. Be a two purpose driver and


going while keeping a sharp eye
put for the kids riding bicycles, tri-
cycles or skating.
3. Give the kids a "brake" and
bypass the temptation to honk
-your horn. A sudden blast from an
auto horn can throw a child al-
ready in danger into a near panic.
4. Always'.expect the unexpected
when driving i$'here children are
at play, riding or walking.

There's an old saying that a thing is worth
what someone is willing to pay for it. Well, if
you could tour the wholesale and retail used car
auctions around the country, if you could survey
,andreds of used car lots you would discover that used
fords bring higher prices than any competitive
.wake-and by substantial amounts.


T'S WHY we feel our '53 cars should
not be compared with cars in the same price
range. Not because our competitors don't do
a good job-obviously they do-but because we
feel Ford Cars have more in comnipon with the
highest priced automobiles. The similarities are
far greater than the differences.

For example. Today, the most expensive cars in
this country have V-type, 8-cylinder engines. Ford
Cars have had this exact same type of engine for
over 20 years.
What's more astounding, the current Strato-Star
V-8 sells for hundreds of dollars less than several
other makers charge for a six-cylinder car. Now
there's nothing wrong with a Six but they do cost
less to make. Ford makes a Six-the most modern'
overhead valve Six in the industry. And if it's a
six-cylinder car you want, Ford has it and for less
money than the V-8, which is as it should be.

What about ride? Here's another Ford similarity
with high-priced cars .. Riding Comfort. One of
the misconceptions for many years has been that
weight-sheer weight-is what it takes to make a
car ride well. Ford has found that you can make a
3000-pound car ride softer and hold the road
better by far than many cars that weigh a full 1000.
pounds more. In the '53 Ford, for example, front
end road shock has been reduced up to 80%. We
say it compares most favorably with the heaviest
cars sold today.

What about automatic transmissions? It
would take the fingers of both hands to count the
various kinds of automatic and semi-automatic
transmissions on the market today. The one we


offer is called Fordomatic. It is the most versatile
on the market, it represents the most profound
consideration of engine-to-wheel power transfer-
and&that it does the best job for our engines isn't
even open to question. It "shifts" better than you
could shift by hand.

What you can see is also important. Here
again Ford Cars lead not only in their price field
but in the medium and upper brackets as well.
Ford visibility is Full-Circle Visibility. This means
huge, curved unobstructed glass area, front and
rear, plus side windows that allow all passengers
what the hotels call "room with a view."

Appearance? A higher price, of course, does not
make a car more beautiful. Conversely, beauty in a
Ford comes "for free." Ford has found that it
costs no more to develop a beautiful car than one
that is less pleasing in appearance. You can drive
up to the most exclusive doorways in the world
and feel perfectly at home in your Ford. Forals
"belong" in exactly the same social category
as the finest, one-of-kind creations. After all, a
Ford is a custom creation multiplied.

What about running costs? Here's one place
that Ford's advantages are obvious. For oil and gas
economy Ford has the big cars whipped. Ford
parts cost less. Ford service charges are less. Ford
tire mileage is thousands of miles greater. And,
Ford depreciation is the lowest of any car on the
market-bar none.

What are Fords made of? Some people have
the idea that the costliest cars are made of "better
stuff." It's true that some high-priced cars have
costlier upholstery and fittings. What Ford has is


so good, both in durability and appearance, that
you probably could not tell the difference. You
might even prefer it, because of its better design
and more pleasing appearance.

Then there's the question of Bheet metal. If you
were to measure and analyze the sheet metal,
structure in the most expensive car, you most
likely would find it identical in thickness to the
corresponding panels in Ford.

After all, then, what is the difference
between a Ford and the costliest cars?

In our opinion, the difference is largely a matter
Sof dimensions, weight (and the power required
to move it) plus the distinction of owning a car
that not so many other people own. The desire
for these things is understandable and probably
justified for people who are willing to pay the
price to satisfy it.

As to comparing Ford with other cars in its
price range, by all means do so if you wish. But,
as we said before, you'll get a better picture of
Ford value by comparing with cars that are most
like Fords-those that are priced up to twice as
much. In fict, we think you'll quickly begin com-
paring the other cars with Ford-because the 1953
Ford has really established the New Standard of the
American Road.

Freshman Class Song
(Tunt To Glow Worm)
by Marietta Chafin
Here we now as Freshmen are
--here in '53 .
In our classes dreaming, dream-
ing of some things to do
We we are Seniors too-with
bright hopes gleaming
And lest we should lose our way
-lest we should lose our way
The future beacons-on to higher
knowledge go.
And do the best we can and do
it brightly
Here and there and everywhere
from sandy ground and hollow
Laughing playing all the day that
calls us on to follow
Chorus
Shine Freshmen students
S-Shine' Freshmnen students
Others look to-us for guidance-
They will follow our example
SShine little Freshnan student-
Shine little Freshman student
We'll light the path for others-
and lead on to our goal.

members of the class. The program
was concluded by Mary Agnes Cul-
pepper, Barbara Sykes, Gypsie Ann

Hooray for the Freshmen
Hooray for our class
We're joined in fellowship

In hardships, and battles, and

We've pulled through every tria'
So let's cherish the friend
That. we have now
For they may be gone through
