ETAOIN SHRDLU
by WES-LEY R. RAMSEY


The first time the City gets a
chance to use their tiew second-
primary election system, the
candidates in the only group in
which a run-off would be pos-
sible come up with one candi-
date getting more than 51 per
cent of the votes hence, no
second primary.

I couldn't find anybody in
The Star office to sell me a
thank you ad so this column will
have to do. You folks were migh-
t) 1 generous both the number
ofvotes you cast in the election
and we naturally have a soft
spot in our heart for the num-
ber that you cast for the writer.
Enough to win.
We are not going to promise
you the moon or its equivalent.
No one person can honestly
promise such and expect to fill
his promise. One commissioner
on the board has only one vote
-three is a majority. One from
three leaves two you can see
why promises cannot be kept
as they are made; We will say
this We will do the'best that
we possibly can to improve our
town, our city services and give
you your tax dollar's .worth of
city.
This business we are new in.
We're no politician and have
never held an office in govern-
ment before. Maybe that's bad
and maybe it's good we'll
know soon enough. We are just
a citizen trying our best to im-
prove our surroundings just as
you are. And with your help the
improvements will be made.

The bank is not being robbed.
Although it is filled with cutting
and welding torches half the
night for the past week, it is only
for the installation of air con-
ditioning and ducts to carry cool
air. Why anybody would know
that Jack Hall, Roy Crews and
that'batch 'wouldn't rob a bank.
Especially Jack Hall, that
gentleman farmer from White
City.

Going to the P.-T. A. meeting
tonight?

Going to the football game' to-
morrow night? .

The amusement concern at
the latest edition of the Gulf
County Fair is much improved
over the one here last year. It
appeals to the kids and gives
them a choice of rides for all
ages. Nice going Legion we
knew you could do it.

Bond Sales Continue At
A High Pace Says Barke

Savings Bond sales in Florida
continued at a high level in August,
Chairihan S. 'L. Barke reported this


week. "E and H 'Series sales were
$5,657;225. an increase of 15.6%
over last August's figures. Gulf
County accounted for $2,231 of this
total and brings the year-to-date
standing up to $14,228, which is
30.2% below Gulf's purchases for
Sthe same period in 1953.
"Florida now stands at 63.1% of
its assigned quota of $71,600,000,
still about 6/2% behind anticipa-
tLon as normally 70% of the state's
total sales volume is accounted for
by September 1st," 'Mr. Barke
added. "We know the seriousness
with which the Treasury Depart-
ment regards its objective of "A
billion more in '54" as a part of its
sound money program and I sin-

a LAWYER knows. .
he'll see that you're treated fairly!

Many questions come up when you're buying a home. Who gets the garden tools
... the appliances .. the storm windows and screens? Do they go with the house
or do you have to pay extra for them? This year's taxes: do you pay them, or does
the buyer? Who gets the oil that's left in the tanks?
Like most questions connected with home buying, these are matters of law. And ,
nobody knows law like a lawyer. His job is to look after yourinterests. He sees to it
that the sales contract gives you everything you're entitled to. Important as such
things are, they're just a small part of the lawyer's services. It's he who tells you
what is safe to sign and what'isn't if thl property you're buying fits the des-
cription whether or not there are claims against it.
His help costs you very little-far less than the trouble you might have without
it! Those who know tell you: never buy property without seeing a lawyer.

A TITLE and TRUST COMPANY OF FLORIDA POLICY
PROTECTS YOU AGAINST "HIDDEN RISKS"


Your lawyer can, and will, find any
flaws that appear in the records. But
he knows there may be hidden risks
not shown in the records. A mistake
in names, perhaps, or an undisclosed
heir-these flaws and many others can
lead to a claim against your title.
Your protection against such risks
is a Title and Trust Company of Flor-
ida Policy, issued right here in town.


If your title, as guaranteed, is ever
questioned, Title and Trust Company
of Florida takes over its defense, pay-
irg the full cost of litigation. If there
is a loss, it is paid promptly.
Best of all, once you have a Title
and Trust Company of Florida Policy,
you have no further cost to keep it in
force.


No other title protection you can get has as strong
financial backing as that of this 50-year-old company

SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON

would do.

turing spirituality is growth in tion is: "Be ye therefore perfect

Christian Love. Love for others
was declared by Jesus to be a
badge of discipleship ("By this
shall all men know that ye are my
Disciples, if ye have love one to
another." John 13:35).
Today we are to consider "Grow-
ing in Christian Love" and the
printed lesson is taken from the
words of Jesus and from the writ-
ings of John for the instruction of
the Christians of his day. Both pas-
sages are timely for then and now.
We might ask the question at this
point, "What is Christian Love?"
In our memory selection (Col. 3:14)
we hear the apostle Paul saying,
"Above all things put on charity
(Love), which, is the bond of per-
fectness." Just before this the
apostle had described the distinc-
tive garments with which the
Christian is to be clothed. Namely:
a heart of compassion, sumility,
and a gentle, patient and forgivign
spirit. In order to complete the


as your Father in Heaven is per-
fect." We must show the difference
between the Christian and the non-
Christian.
2. We have also said that Chris-
tian love is sympathetic and un-
derstanding. We could well ask
the question, "Why should we try
to love both our friends and our
enemies? What is there about
Christian love that turns hate into
love? I find the answer to these
questions in ,1 John 4:11. "Beloved
if God so loved us, we ought also
to love one another."
And as we come to understand
our debt to God for Hisi love to us,
we should also recognize the mag-
nitude of our debt to show forth
Christ's love to others. True love
seeks to understand the truth and
to share that truth with all men.
Finally we say Christian love is
productive and fruitful. Love brings
insight and assurance. "He that
dvelleth in love dwelleth in God.


Christian character he is to be and God in him" (1 John 4:16).
