THE STAR Published In Port St. Joe P But Devoted To the Con- tinued Development of Gulf County f' __ THE PORT ST. JOE A Progressive Community With a S' Modern, Progressive Weekly Newspaper JL L L L^ " "Port St. Joe--The Outlet Port for the Apalachicola-Ghattahoochee Valley" VOLUME XVIII Single Copy 8c PORT ST. JOE, FLORIDA THURSDAY, JULY 28, 1955 $3.00 Per Year NUMBER 52 ETAOIN SHRDLU by WESLEY R. RAMSEY We had a little note from that "good, grey" editor up in Chip- ley following last week's paper in regards to our paper girl". Editor Sellers wondered if may- be that "paper girl" we thought we had for a time could have been a "paper DOLL". Now why didn't we think of that? The logical solution and it illuded us. We want to thank the good editor for enlightening us. . We would like to help him out too. Like the good former editor of The Star (we had just as well try to help him out too) editor Sellers is a fisherman. And like the former editor of The Star, he is such an ardent fisherman that he bought a parcel of land containing a small lake known unromantically as "Mule Lake". Upon occupying the place he noticed the alarming lack of mules and named the lake, 'Muleless Lake". Now what with the dry spell and all the lake has dried up and brought up the name of "Muleless Lakeless". The former editor of The Star built himself a retreat up on an outcropping of the Dead Lakes and what with the dry spell and all, the water has pack- ed up its mud bank and quietly stole away. We feelsorry for these "good, Trey" editors and wish that we .-i. figure out a way to get ...,A--,.er back. We have a wife that cannot overlook a new recipe. She takes three magazines that are chock full of new recipes each month and, we get io try them, There's Hungarian stew in a mashed potato ring, chocolate chip pie, Mexican style spare ribs, peanut butter, raisin and orange pulp sandwiches, water- melon, lemon and orange sher- bet (all together, not separate). We even had a pie the other day that had raisins, dates, and co- coanut for a filling. It makes for an interesting meal. Just eat it, and never mind what it is. If you have a recipe that you aie afraid to try, just give Fren- chie a ring and she will try it out on me. We. have another problem at home. We have a little boy that tries to catch every rain frog in the yard to keep for pets. We have found rain frogs in the refrigera- tor, the washiing machine, the bed and of course, the bathtub. Can you name a cure. We hate to bring all these personal troubles to you the reader, but we thought we may find a solution for a cure from someone. And maybe we will find a fellow sufferer. We see glowing reports in 'the papers about the rainmakers up around Gadsden County seeding likely looking clouds and making them unloose their moisture. The weather reports for the last sev- eral days have reported clear weather everywhere over the na- tion except this area. Do you suppose this has any signifi- cance? If the seeding up in that part of the' state is causing these cooling and life-giving rains in this section we have this piece of advice to offer. Enjoy the rains but don't let on that they are coming from this source as we might be asked to pay part of the bill. This is the mildest July that we remember in a long time. If the occasional cooling show- ers will just last through August we will have the cool fall wea- ther with us even before we felt the summer. Of course, it has been hot, but it has been much hotter. ----K -- Visiting In Pensacola Carolyn Carr, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Bill Oarr, is visiting this week in Pensacola with her aunts, Mrs. Duane Williamson and Mrs. Mel Magidson. 7 Killed On Gulf County Roads In First Half of Year 36 Are Injured In 43 Accidents A total of 528 persons met death in automobile accidents in the State of Florida for the first six months of this year according to the Flor- CD C C-> CD CDu ~CD CD School Children Are Offered Free Exam iSchool children-from kindergar- ten youngsters through high school pupils-will have an opportunity to 'be checked for correct spinal alignment before they start fall c.asses. rhe examinations will come dur- ing the "Back-to School Spinal Check-Up Clinic,"- which is being conducted on August 7-13 by chiro- practors throughout the country.

One of the purposes of the Clinic is to meet the growing interest in spinal health. Chiropractors stre3s that a perfectly balanced spine is essential for normal bodily func- tion; therefore a spinal check-up is an essential health measure.

County Commissioners .Approve 1956 udgdet Saints Will Have Busy Week End With Four Games Lose To Apalachicola 8-3 Sunday The Port St. Joe Saints have a busy schedule between tonight and Monday with four games scheduled during this period. The Saints are currently leading the league by a narrow margin due to the drop-out of Tallahassee. iSunday afternoon the Saints met Apalachicola in the Oyster City and lost to the Oyster shuckers by a 8-3 score. Walter Wilder started on the mound for the Saints and gave way to Bill Fleming in the fourth frame. The Saints lost the game in the last few innings by costly errors. Tonight, the Saints are scheduled to meet the Wewahitchka nine at Centennial Field. Every game with the County seat team has been a close one and tonight's is expected to be no exception. The Saints beat the Gators on their last trip to the local diamond by a score of 5 to 3. - Friday the Saints go to Panama City to play an all-star team made up out of the teams in the Panama City City 'baseball league. This is considered as a very fast league having many good& players from Tyndall Field on the club rosters. Sunday the Saints will again take to the road for Wewahitchka where the Saints and the Gators will again meet.in a Gulf Coast League game. Monday night the Saints will be back home again when they will play a return game with the Pan- ama City All Star team here at the local diamond. This is expected to be a very good ball game and all baseball fans are urged to come out to show Pan- amia City a good reception and of- fer a strong moral backing for the Saints. The Saints have played some good baseball this year with scant backing from local fans.

That word is VALUE. Buyers from both ends of the price scale are finding that Pontiac provides just about everything any car at any price can offer. It's a matter of fact, not opinion, that Pontiac is the biggest, most powerful oar anywhere near its modest price! For size, Pontiac reaches high into the fine-car price range-and comes up with a long 122" or 124" wheelbase. This is sis where it counts, because nothing beat wheelbase in providing solid comfort and stability on any road at any speed. Pontiac's performance is strictly Pon- tiac's alone-and it stems from the most modern, most advanced V-8 in the industry Its mighty 200-h.p. Strato-Streak V-8 with four-barrel carburetor provides more power than any car within hundreds of dollars of Pontiac's modest price. Another Pontiac extra value, so easily measured when you get behind the wheel, is the supreme ease of handling that keeps all its eager power and husky bigness under "CAT FISHING" instant and almost effortless control. And if you interpret value in terms of appearance-here again Pontiac's your kind of car. Its distinctive Twin-Streak beauty and Vogue Two-Toning will stay new and fresh for years! And for the final value clincher-bep.r in mind that Pontiac prices fit easily into, any new-car budget! No wonder Pontiac sales are at an all- time high! Come in soon and drive this wonderful car. We're sure you, too, will join the big swing to Pontiac! a *Low extra-cost option; 180 h.p. standard TUESDAY, WEDNESDAY JOHN LUND and DOROTHY MALONE "FIVE GUNS WEST" "GONE .FISHING" COMING SOON a IRUM -rnWe LTAA I'b-'-U r SILIE HAPPIS co!o0 JAMES DEAN "EAST of EDEN" WIMBERLY PONTIAC COMPANY DIAL BAII 7-3411 201 MONUMENT AVE.

THE INVASION OF SHORTS For years now men have stood enviously by and watched the sweet young things don a pair of cool shorts when the mercury shot up- ward. Buried deep in their heart was a longing for some such "sensible" attire for men on such days. Of course no one man had the courage to be the pioneer in this matter and begin the trend to shorter britches or shorts for men's summer attire. Men's shorts are now coming into their own. Every once in a while a brave man ven- TOO LATE TO CLASSIFY BY RUSSELL KAY Since entertaining visitors is one of Florida's major industries, it is important that Floridians under- stand the mental reactions of a stranger in a strange land. There is no better way to acquire this knowledge than to become a tour- Ist yourself and visit some section of the country you have never seen before. Aside from the pleasure of such an experience, if one is alert and observing he can learn much that will qualify him to be a better, more understanding host when he returns home and assumes the re- sponsibility of catering to the thou- sands of tourists who flood our state each year.

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-In-One Cook- ies.

In those early pioneer days there was no sure way to keep the food supply from spoiling. Today, the hunter and fisherman has no such problem. He merely puts his game or fish in the electric food freezer where it can be stored safely for many months. You don't have to be a famous hunter like Davy Crockett to fill your food freezer.

CAREY All self-employed farmers will be- gin this year to build up 'Social Se- curity credit toward retirement and survivors insurance payments, according to John V. Carey, District Manager of th.e Panama City Social Security District office. Beginning with the year 1955, persons farming for themselves who make $400.00 net profit in a year must report their earnings and pay the iSocial Security tax to the District Director of Internal Reve- LEGAL ADVERTISING IN THE COUNTY JUDGE'S COURT, GULF COUNTY, FLA. IN PROBATE. IN RE: Estate of JOE 0. DANIELS, Deceased. NOTICE OF FILING PETITION FOR FINAL DISCHARGE OF ADMINISTRATOR TO ALL WHOM IT MAY CONCERN: Nc:ice is hereby given that I have filed my final returns as Administrator of the Estate of Joe C. Daniels,. deceased; that I nave filed my petition for final discharge and that I will apply to the Honorable J. E. Pridgeon, County Judge of Grilf County, Florida, on August 15, 1955, for approval of the same and for finai dischai.e as Administrator of the Estate of Joe C Daniels, deceased. July 6, 1955 C. G. COSTIN, Administrator 4t of the Estate of Joe 0. Daniels, deceased nue 'before April 15, 1956, .Carey said. Carey did point out that ,the farm- er may have a choice in arriving at the amount he reports for Social Security purposes. If his gross in- come is $1800.00 or less and he re- 'ports on a cash basis, the farmer may report his actual net earnings from his farming operations or he may report one-half of his gross income. If the gross income is more. than $1800F.00, then he must figure his actual net earnings. If his net earnings are less than $900.00, he has the choice of reporting his ac- tual net earnings or $900.00. The self-employed farmer who makes proper social security tax reports will build up the same old- age and survivors insurance pro- tection for himself and his family as others have 'been doing for years.

Charles Strickland and two sons of Kinard came near to tragedy on the White City bridge recently. Mr. Strickland was driving toward Port St. Joe with his truck loaded with pulpwood. The current was off at White City and the 'bridge had been raised with auxiliary power at night time to allow a tug to pass under. In place of the usual warn- ing devices, operated by electricity, a chain with reflectors attached had been strung across the bridge entrance as warning. Too late Strickland saw the warning and crashed through the chain. His son shouted that the bridge was open and Strickland immediately turned tis truck into the side of the bridge stopping the truck scant from the open span. -Kc inches Washington SEE SAW by WIN PENDLETON 'SYVS WATERMELON That's the way life is.
