The spoke wewd is Io.t: the primAre l word remains WE'RE CONFUSED Ever since we stepped foot in Port St. Jo the hue and cry from every point has been "build playgrounds for our children" "Don't le our children roam the streets, provide them wit] playgrounds and recreational facilities". Every body, but everybody echoed this sentiment. A it is with all things, playgrounds, unfortunately: cost money lots of money. Committees form ed to carry on recreation programs throughout the summer months have invariably been mel after a request for money, with the age-old song "Why that's going to cost too much. We're jus ordinary folks, we can't pay that for play super vision and facilities". And so project after pro ject has died on its feet. But still the hue and cry is for playgrounds not just ordinary play grounds but first class playgrounds and th one provision is that it must not cost anybody a penny except maybe somebody else. Of course a playground of this kind mus come from somebody like Santa Claus, or may be put another touch on the duPont's, who hav been "donated" to death for any and every pr ject that comes 'along here. The citizens jus cannot raise it for themselves. We sometime wonder what other towns do for their civ development money. But here we're getting off the track again' We started out about playgrounds and the like lihood of the town getting a free one or that doesn't cost John Q. Citizen one. red cer but one that John Q. Citizen can have the unlin ited use of. The Rotary Club was going to do just th for the city The were going to put in a fir * A.lM Y 1AR T .RJ Class playground including a tennis court, shuf- fle board court, sandboxes, swings, etc., over en a lot they owned on the corner of Woodward Avenue and Thirteenth Street. It was going to Cost the Rotarians around $2,000.00, which they didn't happen to have right now, besides the cost of the lot which they purchased some few years ago for a scout hut. Upon the develop- ment of Woodward Avenue, the scout hut was moved so as not to hurt the value of the homes' going up moved the hut at Rotary expense off their own lot to help somebody else and the people were very appreciative as they should be. Now the Rotary Club wants to help the children of these and other children about the town by constructing a playground. But some of the good citizens along Wood- ward Avenue don't want the playground on their street. "We want playgrounds, but put Them in somebody else's yard". "We want play- grounds, but we just don't feel like plunking e down the money for them." n' A situation like this leaves us confused about t the civic-mindedness of our citizens, how about h you? s NO HITS NO RUNS NO ERROR* y I- It would appear that the vigorous and un- it compromising resistance of Secretary of State t, John Foster Dulles to all consideration of recog- Snition of Red China, either by the US or the ;t United Nations, has provided the Anlerican peo- ple with an adequate defense against the blan- . dishments of Britian's incomparable Prime Min- d ister, the indestructible Sir Winston Churchill.

President Eisenhower declared thai while we had long sought a basis for peaceful coexistence, there must be good faith ori both sides. There must be no appeasement on oui part or acceptance of the subordination of othei nations. The joint statement assured the world of the continued "intimate comradeship" of Britian and America, joint support of the Atlantic Charter the UN its satellite organizations, and promotion of "the fuller and freer interchange among us o Comfort I I I '(I - U R. E. PORTER, Manager goods and services which will benefit all partici- pants." All this provided the backdrop against which Majority Leader William F. Knowland sounded off before the Senate against the "inertia" of the free nations, the apparent sell-out of France to the Reds in Indo-China that "is bound to en- courage further Communist adventures in Asia or elsewhere". The time had come, Senator, Knowland told his colleagues, for that "agonizing reappraisal" said the Senator, he would resign his post as Republican floor-leader if the UN should admit Red China this fall. This wound enable him to devote himself to the job of getting the United States out of the UN. We can, no doubt, be thankful that the Ei- senhower Churchill conference accomplished little more than what appear to be polite cour- tesies.

Abra- ham grew in faith in God as we are to grow.' " 'I believe that we can grow in Faith in many ways but here we want to look at two of these ways. 1. In our ability to worship. 2. In our obedience to God's will. We ought to grow in' our ability to worship God. Some Christians have accepted God's plan of redemption but fail so many times to take every op- portunity to learn to parise Him ai thedy'dugii.

Lloyd' Highland View Baptist WMU Meets At Church The Highland View Baptist Wo- man's Misionary Society met at the church Monday afternoon at 3 p.m. for the regular monthly Bi- ble study. The meeting opened with prayer by Mrs. Homer Echols. Mrs. Pearly iG. Safford presented the program. She read Luke 18:1 and 10-1'4 as the devotional. The program was taken from the Bible study, "Prayer and Its Power". She gave five chap- ters of the book and included how God answers prayer, "The Interces- sory of Prayer", "The Difficulty of Prayer", "The Synonym of Prayer" and 'The Quiet Hour". She conclud- ed with prayer. 'Five members attended the meet- ing. Star Want Ads Gt Reult------ Star Want Ads Get Results growth as Christians we have cer-. tain goals set before us. First, to develop from spiritual infancy to spiritual maturity and to express such maturity in our relationship to others. Second, to contribute as a mem- ber of the body of Christ of that sacred body, just as each member of the human body contributes to the well-being of the whole. Third, to grow in grace and in the knowledge of Christ, constantly adding Christian virtues to our faith. Fourth, above all to manifest in our daily relationships that love' which is "the bond of perfectness". Hopfner says: "Four things are nec- essary to constitute a Christian. Faith mkkes a Christian; life proves a Christian; trials confirm a Chris* tian; and death crowns a Christian. Are we growing as Christians, in. wisdom stature and obedience to the will of God for our life. Rev. William Iverson, Rev. J. C. Odum, Rev. C. E. Hodges and Rev. Pearly G. Safford. 'Rev. John Howell of Jacksonville, was a visitor. The meeting opened with a ses- sion of prayer followed witt ha devo- tional given by Rev. E. D.. Hodges. He used Matthew 4:22 and the sub- ject was "Fishing For Men". After much.discussion, a committee was. appointed by th president to study the youth recreation and facilities in the Port St. Joe area.

HERRING, Owner Phone 363 Port St. Joe TOO LATE TO CLASSIFY BY RUSSELL KAY Don't worry if your town is small, i' it isn't growing as rapidly as some neighboring community, if new industries are passing it by. Bigness isn't necessarily a bles- sing. When a small town spreads out and becomes a metropolitan city a lot of things happen to it that detract from the joy of living. It loses its charm, its warmth and its neighborly spirit. Many tributes have been written to the small town but one of the best that has come to my attention was published recently in the Flor- ida Municipal Record. It was taken from the Surface Creek News, pub- lished at Cedaredge, Colorado. It sums up the advantages of the small town so clearly and forcefully that I thought you would enjoy reading it. Here it is: "A small town is where every- body knows your business and yet they will make it their business if anyone in the community needs help. It is where folks will talk about you and then talk for you when the chips are down. It is where there has to be a fire to get anyone on the streets after 9 p.m., and yet there will be square dancing until two o'clock in the morning and not depend on hot music and cold drinks to keep up friendly spirits. "In a small town there is a com- mon bond during disaster and a common thankfulness for rain, or a beautiful day, or a new fire hy- drant. There is little thought paid to social position, and the judging of a man is done on his own values -the deep values. "It is where a person speaks to a friend as many times as he sees him during the day, not worrying over the social graces as to whe- ther they have already greeted each other previously.. It is where a neighbor's hurt becomes your hurt. "The freedom and dignity of the individual is practical in a small town without a lot of paid coaching from experts who think they know the minds of men. A man expects to earn what he gets and to get what he earns. "A stranger becomes the focus of honest curiosity and the return- ing native always seems to have added a little glamour. The deeds of the town and its men often shine brighter in far away places. The words of a stranger often seem like important words. "A small town is where the lack Moved To Hospital 'Mrs. Cecil McMillan, victim of an automobile accident June 18 near Mobile has improved and has been moved to the local hospital for fur- ther convalescence. ----------- Heat Loss Aluminum paint, which helps prevent the loss of heat, can be ap- plied to advantage on the insula- ting jackets of steam pipes. of convention allows for more time to live well and think clearly. The veneer of fatuous arguments is a thin shell which comes closer to allowing the reality of things to show -through. The- problems of the people are concerned with na- ture and close association with each other-with things as they are. "This, in part, is a small town and the people who live in it. It is closer to the concepts of freedom, individual initiative and self reali- zation than any other segment of land except the remote rural'. It is the balance wheel in our social or- der." While statistics that show stead- ily increasing population figures and greater volume o building per- mits may be pleasing to read, they indicate that your small town is moving away from a lot of things with which it is blessed today. Remember that majestic sky lines bring with them overcrowd- ing, smoke, smog, machine politics, crime, juvenile delinquency, slums, greed, selfishness and countless other disadvantages. The small town while only a tiny dot on the map, is closer to things worthwhile than is any big city. God loves the small towns, that's why he made so many of them. *++++^o +40 -40^40 4 *<4 THE STAR PHONE 51 6OT*r w SUMMER COLD TAKE %'f for sRasympt tic 0 0 0 RELIEF I Guests of Roberts' Mr. and Mrs. Ben nRoberts- of Altha, are the guests of Mr. and Mrs. Floyd Roberts of Hunter.Cir- cle. /r t ATVtALLY, they're important to you.
