They have had this job so long that the term "paper boy" has evolved in our English language.' Of course these boys aren't really made of paper they are just called that. Here we had just about be- come accustomed to calling the boys that deliver papers "paper boys" (In fact we were once one ourself). Last week brought a shocker to our young eyes. The paper boy looked sort of funny as he. brought the Mobile Register to the front door'of the shop. We laid it down to the fact that we were a little ill all last week and thought maybe we were just seeing things. The next day we looked again and still the "paper boy" didn't look just right. The third day we walked to the door when the paper was de- livered and sure enough we had a "paper GIRL". Now this week we are feeling pretty good again and a glance at the "paper boy" this morning disclosed a boy again. I would swear we had a "pa- per girl" for a time but now I'm not so sure.

Mr. Tremain, 60, was killed in- stantly and Mrs. Tremain, 58, died shortly after arriving at the Mu- nicipal Hospital. The Tremains were travelling to- ward Apalachicola and the wrecker toward Port St. Joe. The left front tire of the wrecker blew out and threw the huge truck out of con- trol. It crashed into the Tremain car and hur ed Il through the bridge railing and off the road at S'in mons Bayou. The collision occiroted directly in front of the Piesnell Boat Landing. Injured in the wreck were Larry Dale Willis, 23, of Tyndall Field, driver of the truck, suffered slight injuries. A passenger in the truck, Marshall G. Pierce, 30, also of Tyn- dall Air'Force Base, suffered inter- nal injuries. Both. are being treated at the Tyndall Air Force Base Hos- pital.

Ordinance number 149X The new ordinance provides for a new business .and professional license schedule. It was felt by the council that the new license ordinance was needed to more equalize the license. schedule of the city. The old or- dinance had many injustices in it charging many businesses too much for licenses and others not enough. 'Several. hearings were held by the council on the proposed vew license structure, and it is tolt by the council that the new ordinance is as fair as 'possible. 'Pressure was brought to bear en the council to outlaw peddling. This was ruled out however, since sev- eral cities in the state of Florida have lost suits in court trying to keep peddlers out. Another request wa's to make peddlers' licenses ex- tremely high. This alsad'proved to bea against free enterprise and was thereby illegal. 'K - ----- ------ Guests qf Millers Mrs. 0. M.

SCOOP In spite of all the cooing sounds emanating from Moscow, it .is still something of a shock to learn that Premier Nikolai Bulganin, heir (more or less) to the dread authority of Lenin, Stalin and Malenkov, is holding the first press conference in the history of the Soviet the first since the revolution against the Czarist regime in 19171 Since the conference has not yet been held as this is written, now is obviously the best time to comment on how we think it's going to be. Going into our trance, we see happily sing- ing workers decking the once-forbidding walls of the Kremlin with garlands of forget-me-nots and signs bearing that famous quotation of the late Will Rogers, "I never knew a man I didn't like". Soon, the droshkys (jet-powered now, and without horses) begin arriving with the cor- respondents. Replacing the traditional be'is are loud-speakers trilling, "To Know You Is To Love You". Inside the Great Hall, the great man speaks: "In celebrating Bastille Day with our. friend:; at the French Embassy on July 14th," he says, "it occurred to us that this would be a good time to unlock our own Bastilles and free all the political prisoners who have somehow collected from all over the world." J "What about the slave-labor camps, Excel- a lencey," asked a reporter. "Out!", bellowed the great man with a sweep of the arm. "They no longer exist. Only those v remain who wish to work at union scale, with ? Iringe benefits and a guaranteed annual wage. Also," he declared, "we have reduced the work- ing week to four days with coffee-breaks - and free vodka. Square-dancing will be institut- : ed as soon as the professors arrive from Ameri- ca, perhaps next Saturday night." "Is there a new attitude on purges, too" asked another newsman. "Da," replied his Excellency, "Throat-slitting poisoning and pushing a rival off of anything higher than a foot-stool are renounced as in- struments of national policy, and become mis- demeanors, first class. And those who confess to crimes against the state are to have their mouths washed out with soap." "Regarding the Iron Curtain ." a reporter began hesitantly. "There is no such thing," snapped the Great Leader. "We just scrapped it this morning - and if there is a junk dealer in the house, will he please come forward and make a bid?" At this point a dove alighted on the leader- issimo's upraised index finger. He took a note from its mouth, read it, and dashed off to his summit villa in Geneva where he had rejected the Swiss offer to string barbed-wire barricades, 1954 fashion. TRIAL IS NO ERROR The human animal has a peculiar aversion to anything that ,is represented as being good for what ails him. This is probably just as well. Otherwise, we'd be overrun with nudists, sub- sisters on nuts and berries, physical culturists. swinging Indian clubs all over the landscape and abstainers from everything you can think of, including milk that has been abstracted from the cow by mechanical means or tampered with thereafter.

This not only' makes life more interesting but gives people an ever-widening community of interest and quite a lot to talk about. The latest innovation to come to our at- tention is "soup-on-the-rocks". Shudder if you like, but try it anyhow. Here's how you do it: Fill an old-fashioned glass (or any other large glass) with ice cubes. Open a previously chilled can of beef bouillon (not consomme) with a beer-can opener, your Boy Scout hatcher, or __- -___7 --. .-- whatever implement is handiest. Pour over the ice. Hesitate a moment while the soup gets clear and you gather your courage then drink. It's really a wonderful concoction! Obviously, this soup cocktail is especially impressive in hot weather. And while we prob- ably shouldn't mention it, there is a health fac- tor in addition to nutrition. It's the most agree- able way we have found of replacing the salt lost through perspiration.

TOO LATE TO CLASSIFY BY RUSSELL KAY There is a song that admonishes us to count our blessings and I often wonder if we Floridians ever stop to do so. Living as we do, surrounded every day' with the charms and advantages thatttend life in such a favored state, it be- comes an easy matter to take for granted and overlook the fact that in comparison to countless millions .of other less fortunate folks, 'we are blessed beyond belief. Every now and'then I have occa- sion to entertain guests or relatives from other states. It is then that I realize how blessed I am, being privileged to live in Florida. Not long ago I had visitors from the Midwest. They come from an area that gets plenty hot in sum- mer and plenty cold in winter. At my suggestion they came to Florida on their two weeks summer vacation, and believe me, it took a lot of insisting. Like most folks who have never been here at this time of year, they had the impression the heat would be unbearable, that all attractions would be closed because it was summer and they wouldn't have much fun. They had driven down in their car and, lilke most folks with a des- tination in view, found the trip more of a burden than a pleasure. Tired and worn out from steady driving, they tumbled' into bed on arrival and I could tell they were sorry they .came. Next day, we took them on a lei- surely trip to Cypress Gardens and Bok Tower. Like kittens with their eyes just open they went into ac- tasy. Freed from the task of driving and fighting traffic, they had an opportunity to see things as they went along. d 4 - i mv. -l'AR.

The thrilling aquatic show at Cypress Gardens took their breaui away and the solemn beauty ri'I peaceful atmosphere of Bok Tower moved them deeply.

On the way home we stopped at Kartke's restaurant at the International Air- port and had Frank fix us some of his out-of-this-world steak dinners. Of course a summer visit to Flor- ida would not be complete without a fishing trip so we went after tarpon the next day. My friends had never caught anything larger thi-- a river cat or a sunfish, and when I used a whole catfish for bait it knocked them for a loop. The tarpon were not very coop- erative but we did catch a big drum, several good sized jacks and a cobia. Twice some hefty critter, probably a shark or big ray, tore up our lines and smashed our tackle. A little after sunset we pulled anchor and headed for home but I kept a couple 6f troll lines out fitted with tarpon spoons then it happened! A silver king hit one of the trolls and leaped ten feet in the air, shaking his head like an angry bulldog. He threw the hook and it came sizzling back toward the boat at express train speed. My friend had to duck to keep from being hit with the sinker. His eyes were bugged out and he was in a cold sweat. I never saw a guy so excited in my life. When we reached shpre he registered in the Rudy Schaefer Fishifg Contest and the Tampa Tarpon Tournament -and couldn't sleep all night for thinking about going' out again the next day. Now he knows why I like to live in Florida. -K Attending Camp Weed Miss Diane Hannon and Kay Creech are spending two weeks at Camp Weed.

These young men are now receiving basic train- ing, which is for ten weeks, upon completion of their training they will enjoy a leave period back home here before reporting to their first permanent assignment.

Not long ago, you had to figure on spending a lot of money if you wanted to step up to a big luxury car. Then along came this new Dodge-and things happened! People who were used to paying a thousand dollars more found that Dodge offered all they could desire-at a sensible price. Owners of medium-priced cars discovered that for the same amount of money, or less, the new Dodge provided much more roominess, comfort, and more pride. More, small-car owners found that several models of this big new Dodge even cost less than a tricked-up "lightweight." Right off the bat, Dodge sales doubled!

Three-In-One Cook- ies will easily fill your summer cookie jar needs. From just one basic recipe, you can make cookies in three flavors-popular vanilla, rich chocolate, and fla- vorfu' orange. The basic dough requires only five ingredients. A real time- saver is the self-rising flour. It already contains salt and baking powder, so there's no need to measure those two items, or to do the usual "sifting together of dry ingredients." This recipe makes about 6 dozen small cookies. You can bake the cookies all at one time. Or, if you prefer, leave the rolls of dough in the refrigerator and bake as needed. Perhaps you can dove-tail your cookie baking with some other oven-baking to keep your kitchen as cool as possible. You'll appreciate the con- venience of Three-Tn-One Cook- ies. And your family willappre- ciate you for catering to their "sweet-tooth."

CAREY "A new "drop-out" recomputation one of the provisions of the 1954 social security amendments, may provide monthly benefit increases for many current beneficiaries," social security district manager John V. Carey said this week. "The law allows a recomputa- tion of the benefit amount by drop- ping out up to four or five years of low earnings or no earnings. In many cases this will have the ef- fect of raising the average month- ly wage and increasing the monthly benefit. "One of the requirements for the drop-out recomputation is six calen- dar quarters of coverage acquired after June 1953. This requirement could have been fulfilled as early as October 1954 if the social se- curity recipient had been paid at least $50 in wages in the last calen- dar quarter of 1954 and in the five preceding quarters. Thirty-six hun- dred dollars paid any time In 1953 and thirty-six hundred dollars any time in 1954 would also satisfy this requirement.
