Matherly of the University of Flor- ida, Gainesville, will serve as state chairman for the 193 March of Dimes, it was announced today by tasil O'Connor, president of the National Foundation for Infantile Paralysis. Matherly, dean of the college of business administration at'.the uni- versity, succeeds Joe Hall of Coral Gables as volunteer leader of the men and women who will conduct the 1954 fund-raising campaign for the polio-fighting organization. Last January Floridians contri- buted $1,002,828 of the $51,500,000 collected throughout the country to fight polio through a program of patient aid research, professional training and public education. The 1953 figure was more than *25 per cent above the 1952 total Sharks Beaten By Walton In Season Opener; Meet Apalachicola Friday Kiwanis To Sponsor Kid's Day Celebration The Port St. Joe Kiwanis Club will honor the children. of this com- munity Saturday in observance of the nation "Kid's Day".

They plan to "The fight against polio is be- ginning to show definite signs of victory," O'Connor said. "When the great day arrives that we can stamp the word conqueredd' on this crippling disease, much of the cre- dit will go to Dean Matherly and other volunteer leaders like him. At great personal sacrifice they are bringing to this struggle not only their time and talent but also an inspiring idealism of service to mankind. "Euc',:ur-iib as scientific ad- vances against polio have been in' recent years-with the advent of gamma globulin and, the prospect of even more effective preventive measures-a tremendous amount of work remains to be done if we are to achieve final victory. In Dean Matherly the fight against polio has a man who will see this job through to the end. But he will need the complete support of all residents of. Florida. I am sure he will get it." Matherly was born on a farm near Mackville. Ky., one of 12 children. He was educated- in a country school, at Elmwood aca- demy at Perryville, Ky., at William Jewell College at Liberty. Mo., and at Washington University at St. Louis. He holds B.A., M.A. and LL.D. degrees.

The cool days of the past week are but a reminder of the winter season to come. And with the immediate beginning of this season the influx of holidays comes upon us. This is the "happy" season; the season of wishing "good will" to our fellow man. At this time in the course of world events, this season is sorely need- ed by this old world and its inhabitants. For years now, in fact as far back as some of the youngsters can remember, all that can be re- membered of the world state of affairs is war or talking of impending war. Always the threat of danger. Now another war has just ended temporarily just in time for the seasons .of Thanksgiving and Christmas to help influence the world in their talks of peace. Maybe this season of Christian, and brotherly love holidays will influence the peace talks and not fade away after the-season is gone. On the brighter side, we have the children thinking" of Hallowe en, looking for awesome masks, planning carnivals, etc., the nation look- ing forward to Thanksgiving and offering their thanks that it will be a peaceful Thanksgiving. Last but not least, the whole nation is looking forward' to. C eristn ,j- and:;not losing ite of thed; fact .tat it i tl- I ,!thdav of the one who died to make this a world of respectable men and to offer man a haven of everlasting security. This is the best season of the year to prac- tically everybody and it is nearer than you think. THE CREAM OF THE CROP You may or may not be excited over the fact that more than half of all Americans read weekly newspapers. We arrive at this statement by starting from the most reliable base available- N. W. Ayer and Son's Directory of Newspapers and Periodicals-which reports there are 9,782 weekly papers with an average weekly circula- tion of 20,944,000. These are very round fig- ures, which do not include the readers of more than 750 papers which do not give circulation figures, and about 450 more with free, or partly free, "controlled" circulation. Thus, while you may be sure there are far more than twenty-one million American families depending on the weekly paper for their window- on-a-cockeyed-world, we'll be ultra-conservative. Multiplying the N. W. Ayer figure by four (the average US family is four-plus, and the country family is larger) we still come up with 83,776,- 000 readers, which is well over half the national total. Far more important than the figure, is the fact that it represents not merely half of all the people in America, but the TOP HALF. It represents the CREAM the most in- dependent, self-reliant and influential half of America. It represents, the ,people who know their representatives-on the town council, the county board, in the state legislature and in the Congress. It represents people who know the source of all strength and wealth is in the good earth. It represents people who, for the most part, actually own a piece of their country-if only enough on which to reside. STAMP LICKS MAN What this country needs, according to Sena- tor Frank Carlson (Rep) of Kansas, is five-cent postage. The Senator, as chairman of the Sen- ate Post Office Committee, and also head of an advisory group studying the Post Office Depart- ment, says that his students may recommend that Congress boost non-local first class postage from three to five cents. This, he thinks, would b,-t os,-tal roreenue $R 000 000 And in lonn- Look Who's Coming! k. I A " know. It doesn't matter how old or the jolly old fellow with ,the whis- young you are.

The new band master, Herman Dean spoke to the Rotai-y Club last Thursday noon and this edi- tor asked him of the possibility of forming a town band here.

Can you think of a better community builder? I can't. Dean also offered his services to help teach, round out and direct a town band, when and if it is formed. We would like ,to see one formed. Dean stated that he was here to stay until he died, which we hope is a far piece from now, unless someone ran him off. Dean is also an accomplished band teacher and director of the first class.

The speaker was about 70, neatly dressed and well groomed. These were not the first things I noticed about him, however. What stood out far more plainly than his neat appearance was the absolutely dejected express, sion on his face. It was obvious that here was a man who had, in his words, "Come begging for char-- ity." I didn't attempt to set him right at first. I have found that it's far better, often times, to let a person "blow off steam" and get it over with. Then he's willing to sit down and listen to the other side of the picture. It -seems that his wife had been "harping" on him for almost 5 years to "go down and see about that Social Security". He flatly re- fused until the cost of living reach- ed such a dizzy height that his com- pany pension and small annuity policy couldn't meet the strain by themselves. Now he was coming down to let the Government help "support" him. It was now. my turn. I asked him if he thought his annuity and com- pany pensions were charity. He immediately stated that they were not-he had paid for them, :hadn't he? I then pointed out to him that he had paid for his Social Security fits, and his wife about two years, because of his attitude toward So- cial 'Security.

In addition to the Falls we look- ed over construction of a huge new electric generating plant which, when completed, will be operated by water conducted around the Falls in a deep canal to two 40-foot pipes to the generators. We also viewed the Falls at night when they were lit up by a huge battery of colored searchlights. In addition we looked at the "floral clock" with the figures and background laid out in vari-colored flowers. It requires 24,000 plants to carpet its 38-foot dial.

School authorities and health officials. are particularly con- cerned about good hearing, good eyesight and sound teeth- Children take pride in having a perfect record as far as these health matters are concerned. Your child's good health dur- ing formative years may deter- mine his whole future. Many so- called "dull" children are not dull at all-they simply have an unnoticed defect or illness re- tarding normal development. If your children are especially active-and most healthy chil- dren are active, they absorb more than their share of falls, jolts, jars. and sprains. The con- cussion of such force frequently produces spinal misalignments. Regular spinal check-ups are just as important as other types of health examinations. Few parents realize the danger in- volved in minor spinal misalign- ments. Small displacements of ver- tebrae in the neck or back which place pressure on the deli- cate nerve fibers, resulting in malfunction somewhere in the body. Nerve force from the brain channeled over the spinal -i erves is,necessary to run the body. If this nerve force is in- terrupted. The organs supplied by those nerves fail to perform their proper .function. It might be the stomach which is affect- ed or the heart the eyes or any other organ of the body.

I A Bible Comment: Christian Progress Always Recognized Need to Prepare 44 E prepared" is a watchword written largely over our life today. Its significance is largely in the area of security and military pre- paredness, but it is also an im- portant watchword in the realm of religion. "Preparation" is written over every aspect of the whole story of the founding of Christianity. John the Baptist, whom Jesus called the greatest of all men born of women, prepared the way, and called for preparations "Prppare ye the way of the Lord, make His paths straight." We must never forget the long period of preparation in the life of Jesus himself. Think of the boy Jesus in Naz- areth, waiting patiently, pre- paring ,ully, listening obediently ,before He began that ministry : which was to last so shortly in S'earthly years, but which was to be timeless and endless in its truth and blessing for mankind. Nor should we forget Paul's. silent years, his going into the desert and the long preparation" before he launched out on his missionary journeys. Nothing in God's providence is accomplished withoutt disci.- pline and preparationri Education is a basic means of preparation today. It is.not the only means, of course. The poet Tennyson prayed in "In Me- morium" that knowledge should grow from more to more, but along with more of reverence. And Paul's prayer for the dis.- ciples was that their love should abound more and more in knowl- edge and discernment. Without education we could not fave had the English Bible or the church. "Be prepared" is still the arftchword of'Christian Droares. ---- -- ----- Birth Announcement Sgt. and Mrs. Jerome Bracewell of Fort Worth, Texas, announce the arrival of a daughter, Donna Jo, on September 18.
