The good shooting eye of that pretty little school teacher made sure of that. And brothers and sisters, that wasn't just an isolated case of a pupil being so much "in love" with his school teacher that he couldn't stay away from her. There was a whole ring of boys mixed up in the activities 20 in fast, as far as the police know to date. Now we ask you, how about that? 20 boys who are not too old to be kept at home on nights when they didn't have something definite to do out at night. 20 boys who are not too old to be treated to the razor strap for such as this peeping into women's bedrooms for what they call "thrills". The things such practices as this might have led to, could hardly be termed as thrills. The boy that was shot was lucky that the incident had not gone further, and he had been shot in the seat of the pants with a jolt of electricity. And the same boys are still roaming the streets at night and hanging around on the cor- ners. We'll be generous and say that negligence on the part of the parents didn't have anything Jeannie Crowder G. A.'s Meet With- Mrs. Smith The Jeannie Crowder Junior G. A.'s had their regular weekly meet- ing Monday afternoon, January 10 at 4:15 in the home of their coun- selor, Mrs. Frank Smith. Andrea Martin, president called the meeting to order and presided over the business meeting at which time, Peggy Lewis was elected sec- retary for the coming quarter and Andrea Martin was elected to re- main president. Plans were discussed for a com- munity missions project for Easter. Mrs. Smith presented the pro- to do with their escapades past. But the same parents letting the same boys run wild after being caught at such activities (and the police notified the parents) is more than coincidence. IT IS JUST PLAIN NEGLIGENCE on the parts of parents. It gives our town a black eye to have something like this happen. And it has happened from a handful of boys. They are literally "ruining the town" due to lack of home discipline. We were comforted to note that no new boys have joined the ranks of the gang of perpetually mischevious group that invades the city streets each night. We have heard some comment about town forming opinions against the police department !eainst giving the woman the pistol to shoot the "peeping tom". People let's use a little charity in our thinking. If you are a woman do- ing the talking along these lines, how would you like to know that you were being peeked on, and you lived alone, and you had nothing but a broom handle to protect you. Sure you could call the police, but a lot could happen before the police could come the several blocks to your house, provided you had a chance to phone them. And men, what if you had to work at night and leave your wife at home and you knew peek- ing had been going on around your home. You know you would give her your gun, or borrow one if you didn't have one, and instruct her how to use and admonish her not to hesitate to use it on any prowler around the house. That is only the sense of self-preservation. We would say that the police did right, if for but one reason. That reason is that one husband that we knew of, knowing his house and his wife was being.peeked on, was waiting out in the bushes beside his house :'i a shot- gun loaded with double 0 buc- 't same night. Had they made the trip { >st first, some parents would be minus this writing. The boys can say that th ,:-re lucky that only one of their number received a slight flesh would from a .22 caliber target pistol. Did that end the matter? We don't know, the boys are still roaming the streets.

AN A 1H S FPC Lists Large Increase In kw Output of Firm 1954 was a notable year for Flor- ida and for the Florida Power Cor- poration. The remarkable growth of the utility, second-fastest growing one in the nation, is a good index to the remarkable growth of our state, one of the fastest-growing areas in the nation. At the end of 1954. Florida Pow- er Corporation was serving 218,000 customers, an increase of almost 15,000 over the same time last year. Ten years ago customers numbered only 66,490. During the year additions at Hig- gins plant 'in Oldsmar and Suwan- nee River plant at Ellaville added 7,000 kilowatts of generating cap- ability to the FPC system. On Dec. 20 the peak load of the FPC system was 446,100 kilowatts, the highest in this history of the t company. s Along with last year's increased number of customer-s came an in-,. creased usage of electricity by those customers. The average residential user consumed 2,765 kilowatts dur- ing the year for an increase of 179 s over 1953.
