ETAOIN SHRDLU
by WI9LEY R. RAMSEY


And so the good doctor is
gone. But never to be forgotten.
Like Rev. Fred L. Davis said at
the funeral services, Dr. Ward
will remain a legend in this
town.
Many people will remember
him, gratefully, for his many
deeds of kindness and even more
for his numerous deeds of skill.
We, for one, will remember
him as the one who put .yours
truly back on two feet after be-
ir"' laid up, unable to walk for
a ir and a half.
.vill be missed.


We went to Apalachicola yes-
terday afternoon to take a few
pictures of the ceremonies in
connection with the introduction
of a dial telephone system for
that city. Joe Sharit asked us to
come take the pictures. Anyhow,
the phone company had planned
for -. big celebration,, anticipat-
ing a large crowd. At ceremony
time, only about four dozen peo-
ple were on hand. This was a
shame.
We sincerely'hope that when
the same ceremony is held in
Port St. Joe that more people
turn out to view the spectacle.
We'll tell you one thing, that
dial telephone system machinery
is something to see. You never
saw so many wires and so many
different colors on wires in ,all
your born days.


Talking about Mr. Sharit's
telephone company, we read an
article in the paper the other
day that he might be interested
in, in his capacity as vice-presi-
dent of the. Apalachicola Nor-
thern Railroadc* ^ihpaly. WeVe
read where, a passenger training
France broke the world's speed
record by traveling 198.8' miles
per hour. And still the train ar-
rived at its destination eight
minutes late.

through the local Gulf County

time the Star goes to press. The

The best rpeort from any division
so far was the record made by th'e
Colored quarters of Port St. Joe.

sion Chairman. His staff of capable
workers from the Colored Churches
and schools turned in $247.152. Their
goal had been set for $250.
Another good report already in
comes from the residential district
of Port St. Joe. Charles Wall was
chairman of this district. With
wonderful assistance from his sev-
en Zone Captains and helpers their
division turned in $210.60.
The complete report of the 1955
campaign will appear in next weeks
edition of The Star.

Dial System To

Be Inuagurated

On April 30

On midnight, March 19, the
change-over was made complete to
move the long distance facilities
of the 'St. Joseph Telephone and
Telegraph Company from Apalachi-
cola to Port St. Joe. Prior to this
date, all long distance calls going
out of -the city went through the
Apalachicola exchange.
With the change-over Tuesday
of the Apalachicola exchange: to a
new, modern dial system and the
coming change-over of the Port St.
Joe exchange to dial operation, the
phone company put its main long
distance and toll offices in with
the Port St. Job exchange.
The long-distance board keeps
three operators busy serving both
Port St. Joe and Apalachicola and
has been installed upstairs in the
Florida Bank building.
Dial System Coming Here
On midnight, April 30, the Port
St. Joe telephone exchange will be
converted over to a dial operated
system, according to Joe L. Sharit,
vice-president of the St. Joseph
Telephone & Telegraph Company.
The new dial switch-board is, rap-
idly nearing completion and the
changing over of telephones in the
city is in progress now.
Last year, the City Council re-
newed the franchise of the St. Jos-
eph Telephone & Telegraph Com-
pany to operate in Port St. Joe and
asked that the company install
dial telephones in the community.
Joe L. Sharit assured the Council
that the dial system would be put
in operation within 12 to 14 months.
The new system will go into opera-
tion just 11 months from the date
of the signing of the franchise.
According to Sharit the new .sy-s,
tern will be the latest thing in tele-
phone dial systems. The n-6w sys-
tem has facilities to make it pos-
sible to dial numbers anywhere in
thle United States once the nation-
wide hook-up of this system is com-
pleted. For the time being, long
distance calls will be handled in
the same manner as they have in
the past.
The new dial system was built
and is being installed b"y the
Stromberg-Carlsonh Company.
The whole South end of the Flor-
ida Bank Building has been taken
in to house the new system.'


Auto Insurance Plan

To Be Discussed

TALLAHASSEE Florida's fi-
'nanbial responsibility law for mo-
torists will come in for an over-
hauling, if recommendations of the
legislative public safety committee
are considered.
The House Committee would
give the state insurance commis-
sioner the right to reduce insurance
premium rates on automobiles if
they were found to be "unreason-
able."
The bill under consideration
would make the law mandatory for
a driver's license with suspension
of license for five years if a driver
failer to carry such insurance af-
ter the first accident.
The Public Safety Committee held
a conference in Tampa last week
at the office of Tom Johnson, the
chairman. Present at the meeting

77 between Panama City and Chip-
ley. According to Ranger Owens
the fires were set sometime be-
tween I11:00 and 12.00 on the night
of March 20 on the lands of Hunt
Oil Company. Fortunately there
was little wind that night, Owens
said, and fire fighting crews arriv-
ed at the scene before the flames
could spread and develop into a
disastrous wild fire.
According to Gilbert the fires
were started by road side flares
thrown into the.wobds. The burn-
ing flares had been placed along
the highway to warn motorists of
danger spots in the highway which
is now in the process of being re-
built.
Investigation into the cause of
the fires and the person causing
the fires by Gilbert and Sheriff M.
J. Daffin's office disclosed that a
Washington County motorist trav-
eling on highway 77 last Sunday
night had seen Wells throwing
flares into the woods and made a
note of his automobile tag number.
On being apprehended at Tyndall
Air Force Base and confronted with
the evidence found by the law en-
forcement officers, Sergeant Wells
confessed to throwing the burning
flares into the woods and causing
the woods fires. Bond for Sergeant
Wells has been se tat $1,000. Ac-
cording to Gilbert the maximum
penalty for intentionally starting a
woods fire is three years in pri-
son, or $1,000.00, or both.

the real facts on





new-car values

ur


PONTIAC dealer!


When you compare automobile values, one
plain and easily proved truth becomes evident
-Pontiac gives you more for your money than
any other car in America!
Keeping in mind that Pontiac is priced within
the reach of any new-car buyer, consider ihese
three very important facts:
Pontiac is a big car! Pontiac's 122" or 124"
wheelbase is 6-2' to 8Y inches longer than any
of the "low-priced three". It's the biggest car
at its price.
Pontiac is more powerful! Model for model, its
big Strato-Streak V-8 delivers more power per
dollar than any car in its field!
Pontiac is the most distinctively beautiful car at
any price! No other car can match the individu-
ality of Pontiac Twin-Streak styling and Vogue
Two-Tone colors.
Right there are three big reasons why Pontiac
sales are at an all-time high. Come in and get all
the facts-for final proof.

You can buy a big, 200-H.p
Pontiac for less than many
models of the lowe st.pr eda
and much less than stripped

priced makes! e0

CONCERNING THE LICENSE RATES
The City Commission has run up into a
sort of a delima in the re-vamping of the busi-
ness license rate charged 'by the City.
The desire of the Commission is to protect
as much as possible, local people land business
interests.
The thorn in the side of the Council now
is the setting of license rates for' out of town
concerns soliciting business in the city. Certain
business concerns want them placed up high
since local businesses also have to pay taxes on
inventory. The Council decided that exhorbi-
tant rates for business licenses would be un-
healthy, both for local business and the buying
public, since it would tend to freeze out out-
side competition. As a result the Council has
come up with a more lenient version of an out-
of-town business license.
After talking to several business men, it has
come to our attention that out-of-town concerns
should pay licenses just like local concerns -
namely, by the amount of inventory carried in
stock at all times. This would place out-of-town
concerns on the same level, requiring them to
pay by their size.
Under the former draft, many out of town
concerns paid less license rates than their coun-
terparts with local concerns. We believe the
inventory plan would remedy the situation.

WE DO A BIT OF REITERATING
From The Blountstown County Record
In last week's issue of The County Record
we did a bit of prophesying and thinking aloud
about our tax set-up in Calhoun County. We
said that we thought we were either going to
have to revamp our tax system, or face the un-
pleasant business of having it done for us.
Since we put that opinion down on paper,
we have returned from the state-wide meeting
of the Florida Education Association. We had
that opinion made stronger by what we heard
down there.
We heard at least three men say things that
led us to believe time might be shorter than we
think. We urge immediate action on this thing.
We do that for two reasons. First of all, and
we know you will agree, it is likely that we will
enjoy doing it in our own fashion more than we
will enjoy having it done to us. Our second
reason for urging this is that we believe we can
do a better job than men from other places can
do.
It just doesn't figure that anybody else will
know as much about values in Calhoun County
as people in Calhoun County. We know, for
instance, that rentals should return ten percent.
(You have to get that in the way of a return to
make money.) Figuring that way a building
which is returning $360 a year in rent ought to
be on the books at $3609. Going by this realis-
tic measuring'device, our total valuation will
jump up millions of dollars. We can then re-
duce our millage to a figure which will appeal
to possible investors of money. That is a quick
return we will get for doing right.
Another return we will get, and we might
as well face it, is some more money for local
operations. If we can get this done without
anybody being badly hurt (all taxes hurt) we
will be doing more than is likely to be our lot
if we await the fall of the inevitable blow from
Tallahassee.'
Finally, and this is highly important, we
will have the satisfaction of knowing we have
done the right thing. Let's get on with the
business.

t"All things cwc e


of Thee..."


To many people,
one of the most at-
tractive aspects of the
Episcopal Church is
its tolerant attitude.
To some, this toler-
ance is referred to as
being "liberal about
sin."
That's not true.
True to the belief
of the primitive Christian Church-the Epis-,
copal Church holds and teaches that all things
are given to us by God for our use- that sin
is not in the thing itself, but in the misuse of
the things God has given us.
So, to the Episcopalian, there is as much sin
in any intemperance overeating, for instance
asthere is in overdrinking or any other over-
indulgence. The moral ethics of the Bible are
of prime importance in the church's teaching.
But, the church refuses to be the conscience of
its members. It expects each to develop a Chris-
tian conscience and a sense of individual respon-
sibility which will use God's gifts as He would
have us use them.
The offertory sentence used each Sunday in
Episcopal Churches, beginning, "All things
come of Thee .," is a constant reminder that
God has given us all things and that it is our
Christian responsibility to use them wisely and
temperately.
Join us in worshipping God in the Episcopal
Church near you. Today!

Secret of Radish Quality-
Sow Little But Sow Often


The first radish he harvests
thrills the home gardener more
than the first robin. Three weeks,
more or less, from the time the
seed is sown, round, red, spicy
roots are ready to serve, bring-
ing to the menu a zest which
stimulates winter-jaded appe-
tites.
Yet many home gardeners
have trouble devising a radish
program which avoids the waste
that comes when a planting is
too large, and only a fraction
can be used before the roots
turn pithy, and must be thrown
away.
The cause of this Is the very
short season that early radishes
remain edible. The earlier they
are the shorter this season, be-
cause they are growing fast, and
quickly liass by the edible stage
on their way to the goal of all
plant life, the production of seed.
With radishes, as with other
crops, -you must sow according
to what you need. Figure out
the number you will use in a
week, and estimate that twelve
early radishes can be produced
in a foot of garden row. Then
sow a week's supply of an early
variety at a time.
Midseason radishes will be
usable for two weeks, so two
weeks' supply of them can be
sown. The early varieties do not
grow well in hot weather.
If you want a supply all sum-
mer, sow a late, summer vari-
ety for that season. But fre-
quent sowings in small lots is a
good rule for all except winter
radishes which take two months
to mature and remain good for
six weeks. They grow very
large, some weighing several
pounds.
One way to grow early rad-
ishes is to mix them with the
seeds of parsley, parsnips, car-
rots and beets, all of which are
slow to germinate. Not more

Harvesting the first radishes
gives home gardeners a thrill.
than a tenth as many radishes
as the other seeds should be
used. The radishes will germi-
nate quickly, "marking the
row" where the other seeds lie,
which will assist you in cultivat-
ing. Be sure to pull and eat the
radishes as they mature before
they can crowd the slower crops.
