Hundreds Witness May Day Program At Elementary School Last Friday A dreary, windy sunless Friday was brightened here with the ap- pearance of the first May Day cele- 'brati9n in. Port St. Joe prepared by the entire elementary school under the direction of Mrs. Mildred Uilgewitter, pliy)ical education di- rector with the aid(, ot ;( teachers and principal of Port Sh:'.l'e Ele- mentary School JIundreds of spectators witnessed the festive dances and the crown- ing of the King and Queen of May. With eyes sparkling, the 13 year old dark beauty, Slarah Tharpe was crowned by Thomas Owens, who with her King, Earl Allen reigned for a day over the festivi- ties. The program opened with the Boy Scouts, Girl Scouts, Brownies and Cubs leading the procession. Flag bearers were George Duren and Cresley Fensom, both Cubs. Performances for their majes- ties in the coronation portion of the program were the third grade girls in the traditional May Pole dance, sixth grade girls in a folk dance. acrobatic teams of girls and boys of the fifth and sixth grades, ballet dances by a group of Lorene Ricketson Dance school pu- pils, cicle games by the first and second graders, Mother Goose Par- ade, Relays, Indians, War Games, Majorettes and clowns all contri- buted their share of amusement aid fun Qver,-250 studqpts. took part In the testival - Members of the Queen's Court were Fran Hannon, Beth Creech, and Cecelia Creeclr as flower girls, Bobby Munn and Janice Nell Gas- kin, iing bearers, and members of the court were: Ann Miller, Sandra Baxley, Kathleen Dowd, Christa Duren, Patsy Smith, Carol Whetstone, Dianne Gilbert, Betty Ward, Sharon Maness, Peter Wim- berly, Walter Wilson, Edward Smith, David Rich, Terrell Rush- ing and Ronnie Parker. Special acknowledgement is giv- en at this time, to all the teachers, who have helped with whole-heart- ed 'interest, to Daniel Temkin, Dot Pope and Shirley Young, Hubert Richards and Mrs. Lorene Ricket- son for their special coaching and valuable help. about its future. The tax on the dog tracks has been the most publicized segment of Gov. McCarty's big legislative program, and the victory over re- sourceful opposition was taken as an indication of the governor's strength in the Legislature. Three amendments drafted to benefit the tracks were beaten by large majorities. Also defeated was a proposal to use: the money for mental health instead of welfare payments and distribution to counties. The end result was that the bill passed just as it was proposed by the House Committee on Finance and Taxation. The bill was drawn to take an additional $2,491,678 cut of dog, track profits annually, thus giving' each county an additional $19,170; in racing revenue and raising he state welfare payments about $2 a month for each aged person on the rolls. The bill would levy an additional tax on the profits of Florida's 13 dog tracks by means of a sliding scale geared directly to amount of pari-mutuel "play" in one day of racing. Greatest struggle came over the amendment of Rep. Dowda oft Put- nam to low the scale and leVy a ',at yielding only $1,.0(0.0)60i a: ., .1 = r -x 'i- reverti .. .'g ; _. f believe the race track opera- tors will be very happy with this . arrangement," said Dowda. But this led Rep. Floyd of Dade to declare that the Dowda proposal was "the great compromise" and resulted in charges of undue legis- lative influence by dog track op- erators. Rep. Williams of Seminole saif a dog track stock owner had threat- ened to defeat him if he voted for additional taxes. "The question is whether the dog tracks are run- ning this Legislature or whether the representatives of the people are running this Legislature," said Williams. Since his amendment did not provide for added welfare pay- ments, Dowda said it would give the counties $20,000 a year extra in racing revenue. Seniors Feted At Hawaiian Banquet A trip to "The Isle of Paradise" amid all the splendor of the jungle, waterfall and beach scenes was carried out in the Junior-Senior at the Centennial Auditorium, banquet and prom, Friday evening which is an annual event of the Port St. Joe High School. Upon entering through the door of a grass hut, the enchanting at- mosphere of glowing stars reflect- ed in the pool and waterfall cast a magical spell over everyone. The theme of the banquet was carried out both in menu and in decorations of the table. Waiter and waitress were attired in native costumes. During the dinner hour, special numbers were given by a group of sophomore hula dancers with Bet- ty Denton accompanying them on a steel guitar. A special feature of the program was a vocal solo, "Pa- gan Love Call" by Marion Parker accompanied by Mary Harris at the piano. The program presented was the invocation given by the class spon- sent her dancing pupils in their Margaret Lois Blount, Ann Mose- sor, Miss Catherine Jeter.

The spoken word is given scant attention; the printed word is thoughtfully weighed. The spoken word barely asserts the printed word thoroughly convinces. The spoken word is lost; the printed word remains. IS IT WORTH SAVING? It seems like just about all we've heard out of this new governor is "cut the expenditures boys" "Fire half the people in the state if need be, but cut the expenditures". The Governor then proceeded to cut a swath a mile wide in the sea of state employees and no doubt did away with" part of the excess help that was on the State. payroll. With all this excess help on the payroll, the State of Florida wound up with quite a pile of cabbage left over from last year's operation, so it would.seem to our ignorant to. the workings of high finance mind that we would naturally have even more of a balance left after this year's spending, what with no cut in taxes and reduced expenditures. Maybe there will be less money, but we can't for the life of us, see how. Then Tuesday of this week rolls around and the Governor's proposed hike in dog track taxes becomes a law and this means even more money in the till to play around with. Here's what we're getting around to. Here' we have Governor Dan's cutting the budget and raising the taxes and he asserts the State can't afford but a $300 per year raise for the teachers. Of course the legislature got "big- hearted" and upped the ante to $350 per year. This amounts to about $10 per week. Just add that to the $35 per week a good portion of the teachers are getting and see if you could live on it, Mr. Legislator and Mr. Governor. You might take one of thb higher paid teachers and add that $10 a week to their $50 to $60 per week and see if you could maintain your living expenses and still get the additional schooling needed to keep abreast of your profession. We venture to say that 75 per cent of the Legislators and the Governor too, are lawyers. A lawyer depends wholely upon education in schools to gain his training for ETAOIN SHRDLU by WESLEYR.

The Governor is advocating fewer teachers with higher education and here he and most of the Legislators owe the teachers directly for their training that is earning them a very good liv- ing. We wonder if maybe someone would give us a lesson in high finance if our 2 plus 2 equals 4 mathematical education doesn't work in. this instance. According to the Governor this 2 plus 2 is getting the sum total of about 1. We want to say "HOORAY" for Senator Tapper who did a bit of orating on the Senate floor about this matter. Tapper told the State Senators that at the proposed rate of expendi- ture each college student in the State wold cost the State over $6,000 and each ELEMEN- TARY student would cost the State slightly over $300., Any school teacher will tell you that a students education all through his school career is based on what 'he learns in his elementary years. As the Senator says, "This figure seems a little lop-sided". It is just a shade lop-sided isn't it Senator. KEEP HAMMERING-KEEP IT SIMPLE It is dangerous for a business to become well known. For then it is tempted to quit adver- tising. And when that happens, the business is probably on the way out. In a speech last week before a Pensacola civic club, a credit company's advertising man- ager said that and more, all of vital interest to businesses that want to stay in business. "There is no such thing as 'living on your fat' in the matter of advertising," he said. "A new audience is born every day, and your ad- vertising message of yesterday is not even an echo to the newly born daily audiences." Agreed that advertising, pays, what kind is best? The clear, easily understandable kind is best, said the speaker. Advertising must be simple. Its thoughts must be simple. Its thoughts must be expressed so lucidly they can be understood by a child. The simplest words and statements are longest remembered. In the 1860's a man made a two-hour oration, the credit company's ad- vertising man recalled by way of anecdote. This two-hour talk was followed by another man's talk that ran less than 300 words. No one today remembers much about that two-hour speech. But Lincoln's Gettysburg ad- dress with its famous opening lines "Four score and 10 years ago" is part of the American public mind.
