Highway 98 was the only High-
way in the nation with government
markings that had its origin and
ending within one state. The high-
way formerly started at Pensacola.
A group of Alabama and North-
west Florida businessmen and tour-
ist facility operators have been
seeking the extension for some
time as a more direct and scenic
route to South Florida. Only re-
cently Chambers of Commerce
along the route have taken up the
task of securing the extension.
Highway 9S has had several face-
lifting operations to shorten dis-
tances between Panama City and
Pensacola and from St. Marks to
Penry. At present a short cut is
in the process of construction be-
tween Port St. Joe and Apalachi-
cola to shorten the distance to
South Florida considerably. The
only bad portion of Highway 98
now lies between Carrabelle and
Crawfordville.

Patrol Director Names

S-D Day Chairman Here

State Patrol Director, H. N.
Kirkman, Florida S-D Director, to-
day announced that Wesley R. Ram-
sey has been chosen -local Safe
Driving Day Director for Port St.
Joe.
Acting Governor Charley E.
Johns had previously asked local
authorities that they appoint coun-
ty, town or city S-D Day Directors,
in letters mailed several days ago.
The purpose of S-D Day is to try
and eliminate traffic injuries and
deaths on Florida highways for one
day. December 15, with the conten-
tion that if they can be eliminated
one day the State can go accident
free the year round.
The local campaign for a day of
safe driving is being carried on in
conjunction with President Eisen-
hower's national S-D Day campaign.
It has taken automobiles 50 years
to kill one million people, but with
the present accident rate and the
rate of -increase, the second million
will be counted for in less than
half that time. Automobile deaths
have become so numerous that they
now outrank natural deaths in fa-
tilities throughout the nation.

Wayne Taylor carried the open-
ing kickoff to Bonifay's 45. The
Sharks quickly worked the ball
down to the Blue Devils 15 yard
line where Joe Adams passed to
Frank Dennis for a touchdown that
was nullified by a penalty. Adams
threw another long pass to Ronnie
Chism who was dropped on the one
yard line. Gene Anderson stepped
over the goal line on the next play
for a touchdown. Bonifay was for-
ced to kick after receiving the kick-
off. The ball went 'to the Sharks
25 yard line. Wayne Taylor brought
the ball back on a beautiful run


where the 'Sharks made a terrific
go~d line stand. The Sharks drove
out where Wilder passed to Chismn
for 43 yards to the Bonifay 40.
Joe Adams then tossed a screen
p!iss to Wayne Taylor who romped
40 yards for the Sharks final touch-
down. The Blue Devils then drove
to the Sharks 20 where they scored
their lone counter on a 20 yard

way 98. The resolution was "passed"
on October 28 and sent to the State
Road Department.
The Overpass question has long
been controversial with the own-
ers of the M. G. Lewis and Sons
Garage and property seeking to
hold up construction claiming that
the construction of the overpass
will cause consequential damages
to their property in the amount of
$95,000,00. The Lewis's have came
up with an injunction against the
project until the damages are paid
to them.

Department with the notation at

A GOOD CHRISTMAS PRESENT
We think a good Christmas present for the
County Commissioners would be a good set of
legal books. A whole volume of which should
deal on whether their meetings are legal or not.
The County boys have been slipping lately and
have "passed" a resolution and entered it to the
State Road Department labeling it as official
when a meeting wasn't even called. Another
incidence was the recent passing of a Resolution
to the State Road Department asking that the
connecting spur between the Apalachicola cut-off
and the Niles Road be constructed sorta has
a putrid odor because one of the Commissioners,
George Cooper, claims he wasn't notified. The
.aw definitely states that each member must be
notified personally as to the meeting date, time
and purpose of each special meeting. If, as
Cooper claims, he wasn't notified, this meeting
and this action taken was illegal.
And now comes the buzzard in the oint-
ment. As you probably know, there is still a
project afoot to build an overpass over the
AN Railroad tracks on Highway 98 in front of
the paper mill. And as you probably know,
the owners of M. G. Lewis and Sons Garage is
fighting the action for what they consider a fair
remuneration for the damage the overpass will
do to their property. This question is not the
important matter right now, for this editorial
and the merits or demerits of the overpass will
rot be discussed. What we are concerned with


is the under cover manner in which a resolution
was prepared and supposedly "passed" by three
of the County Commissioners.

"Check Moisture Before You

TALLAHASSEE State Fores-
tbr C. H. Coulter cautioned all land-
owners to be sure of sufficient soil
moisture before planting any of
this season's pine seedlings.
"Due to the extreme dryness in
many parts of the state," Coulter
said, "it would be risky to plant at
the present time, even though the
stock is generally hardened up
with the current cool weather and
ready to plant."
Coulter added that each land-
owner should test his land for mois-
ture content before requesting de-
livery on his seedling order. A sim-
ple test for soil wetness is to see
if the soil below the surface will
ball up and not run through the
fingers when picked up.

Parks Make Direct

Contribution To

State's Economy

The Florida Park Service is
among the state agencies that make
a direct contribution to the state's
principal economy-the tourist in-
dusry, Director Emmet L. Hill said
in Tallahassee this week.
From the practical side, Hill
pointed out, Florida's tourist busi-
ness covers a large field of opera-
tions which include rental of ac-
commodations in hotels adn motels,
spending in restaurants and drink-
ing places, expenditures for motor
fuels, and repairs, food, clothing,
medicine, theaters, gifts, books,
magazines, post cards, newspapers,
radios and fivtures, spending at race
tracks and on amusements, house-
hold furnishings, and many other
items which contribute.to the en-
joyment of life in Florida.
"The primary objectives for the
expenditure of state funds for state
parks and historic memorials are
to conserve the scenery, the natur-
al and historic objects, the plant
and wild life, at the same time pro-
viding facilities and accommoda-
tions for the enjoyment of these
areas not only by the present gen-"
eration but also by future genera-
tions," the State Park Director con-
tinued. 'Certain buildings, roads,
trails, recreational facilities, utili-
ties and other capital improvements
are essential to the full use and
enjoyment of State Parks and are
essential to their economical ad-
ministration and operation. The de-
velopment of Florida's State Parks
should continue so that they may
contribute their share towards in-
ducing visitors to remain here lon-
ger, as paying guests." I

Bill Ayers Listed As
Valuable Frosh Player

GAINESVILLE The University
of Florida boasts one of the finest
Freshman squads in recent years,
and the home state of Florida is
contributing 23 of the 54 currently
carried on the roster. '
Bill Ayers of Port St. Joe is one
of the Florida boys who is show-
ing up well at the frosh scrimmage
with the varsity. SEC rules do not
permit first year men to play in
the varsity, so the newcomers are
learning by running the opposition
plans against the varsity.
Ayers, a 6 foot 1 inch, 185 pound
halfback, is the type of running
back that should fit into the Flor-
ida football picture and the coach-
ing staff is working hard with him


to perfect his natural abilities.
Playing his high school ball at
Vernon and Chapman High Schools,
Ayers was a standout performer in
football and basketball. Coach Bill
Wagoner used Ayers as a fullback
and a halfback.

Hot, bite-sized sandwiches are usually the first ones to disappear
at any party. An easy way to make these is to use prepared butter
biscuits.A variety of open and closed sandwiches can be made from
just a few basic ingredients. Ham, ham and cheese, and marmalade
are wonderful fillings for the closed sandwiches. Heat them in a 400*
oven for eight to ten minutes. The crusts are crisp and tender and
the insides are hot and tasty.
For open sandwiches, spread Arnold prepared butter biscuit halves
with sharp cheddar cheese, topping some with a small piece of bacon.
/ spread that's different combines a three-ounce package of cream
cheese with a tablespoon of chutney and six chopped olives. Browned
under the broiler, the flavor of this mixture and the buttery biscuit
is something special.

Pastor, Oak Grove Church of God
THE POETRY OF THE BIBLE
Psalm 23
Hebrew poetry is characterized
by its abundance of parallelism, a
quality which is not lost in the Eng-
lish translations. The poetic books
of the Bible are Job, Psalms, Pro-
verbs, Ecclesiastes, Song of Solom
and Lamentations. Of all these
scriptures, Psalm 23 (the Shepherd
Psalm) is probably the best known
and best loved.
There are differing opinions as
to the writing of this Psalm. A few
even doubt that David wrote it.
Some say that David wrote it when
he was sought after by Saul. Oth-
ers believe that he wrote it after
the death of Saul, as an expression
of appreciation for God's care dur-
ing his exile. There have been those
who claimed that the Psalm was
written to celebrate the goodness
of God while the Israelites were
wandering in the wilderness. An-
other opinion is that it was com-
posd to express appreciation when
Israel had returned from their eap-
tivity in Babylon.
We present these various opin-
ions because the Psalm is of such
character as to provide comfort and
sustain faith in all circumstances of
ife. The Psalm fits our need as
fully today as it met the need of
.he Hebrews when it was written.
It is called "The Shepherd Psalm"
because it provides these two beau-
iful lessons: (1) The Lord is our
Shepherd. He knows our need and
will supplyit. (2) There is rest for
hose who put their trust in God.
Although surrounded by enemies,

and nine, and goeth into the moun-
tains, and seeketh that which is
gone astray?" (Matt. 18:12). Too
often we act as if our Shepherd
were far from us, unconcerned
about our need. We rejoice in Him
when things go well; we doubt Him
the rest of the time. But He is our
Shepherd when testing come as
fully as when encouragement
abounds. He is the Good Shepherd
(John 10:11) and the "chief shep-
herd" (1 Peter 5:4)-that makes
Him our Perfect Shepherd.
It is the Lord, the faithful Shep-
herd, who revives the soul and who
leads in the paths of righteousness
"for his name's sake." Living for
the glorr of God, the Christian finds
rest for his soul and the supply of
all his spiritual needs. The Lord is
his Shepherd.
Jesus Is Our Shepherd Tomorrow
Concern for Tomorrow. People
live in "tomorrow" by worrying
and doubting. Many look with mis-
giving into the future, but he who
believes does not live in "tomor-
row". When the Psalmist looked
ahead, he declared, "Yea, though I
walk through the valley of the sha-
dow of death, I will fear no evil."
He saw that when tomorrow came
it would be today; he said, "For
thou art with me; thy rod and thy
staff they comfort me-"
It is our duty to walk with the
Lord one day at a time. Jesus as-
sures us concerning our tomorrow
"Take therefore no thought for the
morrow ... Sufficient unto the
day is the evil thereof" (Matt 6:34).
"Evil" here means the unpleasant
things the sufferings, the tempta-
tions, the trials. We must not bor-
row anxiety from the unknown fu-

Sikes Urges Study ol

To Spur Declining

Serious surpluses of seafood in
all producing areas of the United
States are causing a severe impact
on the fishing industry. The con-
dition has become so serious that
many dealers have ceased opera-
tions ini recent months, while oth-
ers are holding on precariously,
taking losses in the hope that con-
ditions will improve.
Taking note of this situation,
Congressman Bob Sikes this week
urged the Department of Defense
to increase its domestic fish pro-
curement program for consumption
by personnel stationed outside the
United States.
'Sikes also urged officials of the
Foreign Operations Administration
to consider the inclusion of seafood
oi the list of commodities purchas-
, ed by the agency for use in the
