ETAOIN- SHRILU by WESLEY R. RAMSEY Mrs. Walter Johnson over on Seventh Street tells us that a few little vandals came into her yard the other night and strip- ped her camellia bushes of both leaves and blooms. Needless to say, she was slightly put out by :he incident. If Mrs. Johnson had half the trouble with her camellias as we are having with our weeping willow tree and rose bushes she is a bit miffed over the incident- Seriously, mothers and fathers, children can be destructive with- out actually meaning to do so. A person takes pride in their yard and flowers and don't rel- ish having them torn up in such a manner. Oh boy, what a few rumors can do. People could just liter- :lly see that new highway corn- ing right smack down the mid- dle of the street they lived on. Most people had it on the high- est authority. But, alas and alack jike most rumors there was no neat to any of them. Even the Highway Department is waiting to set a definite entrance route until the people can be heard from. Politics are now buzzing and 'the politicos are in high gear with their wooing the vote. We have had numerous calls from politicians and an untold- num- her of handshakes, but nary a free stogie have we received yet. What with the new water sys- tem going in and all, we wonder if the City Commission has thought of adding flourine toa the water? What is flourine? It is a substance that has proven. about 70 percent effective in pre- venting tooth decay among peo- ple. It won't do the older folks much good, but the children coming along would be practi- cally from tooth decay if started young on .flourinated water. It is considerably cheaper than chlorine and, we think, would be a definite asset to the city. Might be a little mention by, you the citizens the respective commissioners coit bhruili tis .ibout. If seems \welTl-'orth- while -to us, in the -ood 'it will db tthe children of the community. The benefits will remain with the children even after they are grown. Tests in cities having this treated water have proof that mote than seventy percent of those in continuous contact with this kind of water have grown up without a single cavity to their name.

There was a special commission of Florida Presbytery to- lead the service, and Chaplain Joseph M. Gammon, the pastor's brother-in- . law brought the message, "The Mission of the Church". As the vows were solemnly made between the church and its-.new undershepherd,. Rev. Donald Swi- ' cord of Gulf Beach gave a very k challenging charge to the young., minister. Rev. Billy Daniels, beloved for- mer pastor of the church, charged the congregation with -their obli- gations in a singular manner. The oldest members of the church said it was the most striking ser-,- , vice they have ever attended in . their memory. One thing that I made the service, so meaningful was a short prayer meeting pre- vious led by Rev. Iverson and Bl- der J. R. Smith. Since the arrival of Rev.

' Dodge Offering Unique Vacationvift In National Contest Now In Progress To draw' attention to its 40th anniversary as a manufacturer of automobiles, Dodge has announced .plans to launch a nationwide con- test which will offer grand prize winners a two-week vacation with double their pay and other major awards.

A grand-prize winner every day for the 40 days the contest will run will have a new 1954 Dodge placed at his or her disposal, including gas and oil, for .the "two-weeks- away with double pay" period. In addition to double-pay, grand- prize winners will have all heir transportation, meals and hotel ac- commodations paid by ppdge and be given an extra $500 in cash to save or spend as they please. The two-week vacation is for wo people, with the double-pay being based on the one whose salary or wage is the higher. Additional prizes totaling $10,000 will be awarded to other than grand-prize winners. Contestants will be eligible for the contest, McGowin said, by. vis- iting their nearest Dodge dealer. The dealers will furnish them.with an entry blank upon which they will be asked to complete in 25 words or less this sentence: "I would like to take my vacation in a 1954 Dodge because. ..

It will'be known as tihe Extra Added Gubernatorial Derby and in all probability will be run in two heats. Entries- to date- include' three contenders and-it is possible oth- ers will be entered before the race starts. IStables have been set up for Odham, Collins and Johns with trainers busy asibees. The racingrules for the .coming melee are nore or less obscure at the moment and the Florida Su- prome Court will serve as a sort of Racing Commission to determine just who is and who isn't eligible to enter. r At the moment Brailey Odham seems to be a favorite with the dopesters. He came in a close sec- ond At the last Gubernatorial event and is off to a flying start again this time. Seasoned and experienc- ed with a good knowledge of the course, he is expected' to rull a fine race. He is. a bit wild at times and more or less unpredictable; he is hard to handle and inclined to take the bit in-his teeth. LeRoy. Collins, a recognized thoroughbred, has shown up well whenever he as been entered in the past and has several wins to his credit, but this is thli first time he has ever been entered in a big time event like the Gubernatorial Derby. Observers content that he is not as fast as Odham but is stea- dier and more dependable and has a record of handling himself well. His trainers are confident he will give an excellent account of him; self. Conservative bettors like him and his odds will improve. Johns, the Charley horse, is as dark as they come but has a tre- mendous advantage. While less ex- perienced than either Odham or Collins, he is in the saddle. He has some.veteran trainers and handlers and carries the official Guberna- torial colors. He has the No. 1 spot in the paddock and is constantly in the public eye. 'i ] He is getting top billing and at- tracts more attention than any oth- 'er entry. Because of his official. rating .he can draw-bigger crowds and get more attention, and his handlers are seeing to it that he doesn't miss a bet here publicity is concerned. At Hialeah or Gulfstream he would get more attention right now than a Kentucky Derby winner. To build up public interest and-fol- lowing he is being displayed wher- ever possible and will, be seen in Tampa. during the Florida State Fair and Gasparilla Carnival. jThis single appearance will insure him an audience of a half million plus plenty of newspaper and radio breaks. The following week he will get the breaks at- the. Florida 'Citrus Exposition in Winter Raven. He may not fare as well there for he will probablybe ridden hard at the annual "Press Breakfast" when the newspaper boys let their hair Gubernatorial records apart to find out what they are made of. Johns has been known to stum- ble in the past, but his trainers say he has overcome this fault and his condition is improving every day. Efforts are being made in some quarters to have him disqualified, but handlers say it can't be done and they are going right ahead with their plans to run him in the Der- by. The pari-mutuel windows will be closed for this race but it is ru- mored'that there will be plenty of money up just the same.

Several times during the past few months, Mexican stock- men and inspectors have urgently reported animals affected with symptoms of this disease. In every instance, however, diagnosis has shown some other infection to be the cause, such as foot rot Or vesicular stomatitis. The fact that no outbreaks of foot-and-mouth dis- ease have been seen in Mexico since the end of 1949 has given new hope that it eventually may be eradicated.

The deadline for gover- norship candidates to qualify is March 15 but the i-ace will be made 'tup and moving at a fast pace before then. The State Supreme Court heard arguments Wednesday afternoon in a suit to determine whether 'Charley E. Johns, now acting gover- ,i6r as president of the State Sen- ate, is eligible to seek election to the unexpired McCarty term. Johns has announced he's run- ning against Brailey Odham and Leroy Collins and has submitted his qualification fee and papers to ,the secretary of state. But J. Frank West, a young Wil- liston lawyer who claims he has no axes to grind, has sued to disqualify Johns on the basis ofla constitution- al provision that no member of the legislature which raised the gover- nor's salary may hold office as gov- ernor until his term in the Legisla- ture has expired,. The present Legislature of which Johns is a member until 1956 au- thorized a pay raise for the gov- ernor. Johns claims, it was an il- legal increase, that even if it were valid it has been wiped out by Cab- inet action at his request, and that he is eligible. Collins and Odham, apparently ignoring the question of Johns' eli- gibility, are out campaigning. Od- ha.ni S.aifud oil dealer, has start- ed a series of abbreviated versions of the radio talkathons which gained him second place to McCarty in the 195'2 canipaign. Collins,, Tallahassee legislator and close .'associate' of MeCarty, still is,'spending most of his'time getting together a campaign organ- ization. He plans to start his stump speaking tour about Feb. 15. The Supreme Court, by expedit- ing the case, might by that'time have decided whether Johns mnay run. It probably will take more time on another constitutional question which came to the fore at, Gov. McCarty's death: May the governor elected this year to fill out McCarty's unex- pired term run again' in 1956 for a full four-year term of his own? That puzzler has: been raised by House Speaker 'C. Farris Bryant of Ocala. Circuit Judge W. May Walker of Tallahassee ruled the constitutional ban on' a Florida governor succeeding himself does not apply to a two-year governor and the man elected this year could hold office for six years if Sportswear by Manhattan AUSTI ATCHISO COMPANY Phone 65 Port St. Joe, Fla. gives you all these features at .lowest 'prices!

CASH or TERMS The PRICE is the SAME ALL WORK GUARANTEED A true dirt gardener, who grows her own flowers, shares a Royal hobby centuries old. 1 Amateur gardeners assert that their do-it-yourself hobby is not only the most widely practiced today, but the most ancient of all the avocations now followed in leisure hours. by, millions, of Americans. They can cite history to prove that the fascination of growing your own plants has appealed to men since history began. Ancient rulers with armies of servants found pleasure in planning gar- dens and personally planting them. The Persian emperdr,- Cyrus. laid out a park in front of his palace at Sardis and proudly told Lysander, the Spartan, that his own hands had planted many of the trees. Not every garden owner today can make the same boast as .Cyrus. But garden club members will agree that the keenest thrill to be won from this hobby is ex- perienced when a flower blooms on a plant which grew from a seed or bulb which you planted, like Cyrus, with your own hands. The difference between ,gow- ing a garden and admiring those grown by others finds a parallel in athletic sports. No-spectator can ever share completely the physical benefits and sense of achievement which the player en- joys. SWhile its greatest rewards are in mental and physical health, gardening with your 'own hands in these times pays substantial material profits which the whole family can share. Oh a small plot most of the vegetables needed by the aver- age family can be grown in fewer hours work than it would take to shop for them in the market. Decorative gardening not only rewards the gardener but adds, substantially to the value of the home where it is ci trticed The social -contacts which de- velo'pfrom sacti..l,-y ir'gardenirig are not the least of its rewards. The rapid expansion of the gar- den club movement among both men and women is based upon the spreading, interest in this hobby. Many clubs require that their members be "dirt gardeners" who plant things with their own hands. To qualify for member- shil in this fraternity, winter is an excellent time to begin. A seed box in a sunny window gives the best of all initiations to the practice of plant growing. Every tiny seedling can be seen as an individual, dependent oin your care, and by watching its progress or decline, as you suc- ceed or fail. lessons can be learned far more quickly than in the garden. Cooperation Between Doctors and Dentists Saves Teeth, ProtectsHealth (This article is published as a public service by The Star in co- operation with the Northwest Florida Dental Society). Few people realize that many di- seases of the human being have their origin in or about the mouth. The famous Mayo Medical Cen- ter-has issued the statement that 85 percent of all systemic diseases originate about the head and neck, and that 80 percent of these have some of' their earliest symptoms in and about the mouth and teeth. That's why dentistry and medi- cine so often overlap. The prob- lems of both the dentist and the physician meet in the mouth, in many cases. That's why, too, the dentist and the physician so often must work together. Therefore. if your.physician refers you to a den- tist, don't jump to the conclusion that it means the dentist is going to extract all your teeth, or per- would refer you to a dentist be- cause of some kind of trouble with your teeth or gums. As a rule, any good dentist can treat such things without referring you to a dental specialist, and will not do so un- less it is for the patient's benefit. Remember that the "last thing".. a good dentist wants to do is to "pull a tooth". He better than any- one elW--including a physician- knows the great value of teeth; the indispensable part they play in health and normal living. No good dentist will cause you to lose. a tooth if he posisbly can save it, without endangering your health. Infected or diseased teeth, of course, are another matter. Often it, is urgent that such teeth be re- moved to save further damage in the mouth, or to prevent a serious infection from pouring poisons in- to the bloodstream of the body. Most people would not suffer for haps even one of them. It may more than a few hours with an in- mean something entirely different fected finger. If it got bad, he -such as some misplacement or would have it treated, to prevent "crowding" of your teeth, some di- blood poisoning and to relieve the sease of the gums or a number of pain. But many people will neglect other ailments of the mouth. That an infected or -decayed tooth for is why we have dentists who are months or even years, especially if specialists in oral (mouth) diseases there is no pain. Yet such a tooth or in surgery of ,the mouth, may be transmitting infection- Ordinarily, however, a physician poison-all through the body with every morsel of food.
