About half of the Gulf delegation left by char- tered bus last Thursday morning at 4:00 a.m. The rest went by private automobile. Barnes said, "Whatever action Gulf County teachers might take will not be directed at local peo- ple or officials. We feel that Gulf County's efforts have been more than adequate." Adams Will Speak George Core Picked To Head Clerks, Recorders George Y. Core, Gulf County's Clerk of the Court, has been named president of the Na- tional Association of Recorder's and Clerks. Core was elected to U the national office at a recent meeting of tlhe Association in Detroit, Michigan. .This is the first time this honor has been be- stowed upon any. coun- - ty as small as Gulf. Core has served as Gulf's Clerk since his election in 1948. He has never had opposi- tion. for his post in his 19 years of service. He has been active in the , National organization since its organization, and has served in sev- eral offices for the group. The most notable of these offices was chairman of the Civil Defense Committee. In this posi- tion, Core and his committee were charged with researching ways and means of preserving public records in case of enemy attack. The honors placed on Core and Gulf County have been recognized by at least two resolutions by civic GEORGE Y. CORE and judicial groups in the County. The Port St. Joe Rotary Club has sent Core a resolution of congra- tulations for his selection by his fellow clerks and the Fourteenth Judicial, which includes Gulf Coun- ty has acknowledged Core's selec- tion.. The Resolution was inscribed on the records of the court. Core will serve for one year in his national office.

The greatest increase was shown in the Port St. Joe Elementary School with 60 more pupils than they had last year. Port St. Joe High School had an increase of 56 more than they had at the end of the school year last year. Most, or probably all of the in- crease in the two schools was evi- dently brought about by increased integration, since Washington High School reports a decrease of 87 students in grades one through 12. Highland View Elementary School also reported 25 less students en- rolled this year.

'DOWN A DEAD-END STREET "We have entered an age in which education is just a luxury! permitting some men an advantage over c ers. It has become a necessity without which a person defenseless in this complex, industrialized society . have truly entered the century of the educated man." The then Vice-President, Lyndon Johnson, said th words in a commencement address in 1963. Their tr is becoming clearer every' day. -Many young Americans are answering the challe' to become better educated. Last year, 18 percent of young people between the ages of 16-24, were high set dropouts, as compared with 25 percent in 1960. But this reduction is not enough. The frightening i remains that too many teenagers still consider education luxury. At the current dropout rate, by 1975 there will 32 million adults in the labor force without a high sch ,education 32 million people who will be unqualified most of tomorrow's jobs. To stave off this tide of unskilled workers in a bo< ing economy, President Johnson has directed the, Preside] Council on Youth Opportunity to launch the 1967 St in-School Campaign.

There is a good pos- sibility that if he was this far wrong about F.E.A. (for F.E.A. is the Florida Teacher) that he could be wrong when he felt his image of power, and destroyed the Flor- ida Public School System by his powerful veto pen. If some of you who are his friends and supporters will advise him and he will listen to you, which I doubt, he can still change his mind before it is too late. How- ever, please hurry because time is growing short. Some of you ought to try to talk to him. Anyone who is dense enough to think that the most edu- cated group of people in Florida go to meetings to hold hands and chant, needs all the advice he can get. I challenge you and all his other supporters and friends to try to talk to .the Governor and see for yourself if he: 1) Has sense enough to admit when he is wrong; 2) Has manhood enough to admit he was wrong; 3) And organization enough to correct his wrong. See if he is a "man" before he destroys the Florida Public School System completely. Unless he does something approximately 'twenty to thirty-five thousand teachers will leave the state at the end of this school year if not before. 'Sincerely yours, C. ALLEN SCOTT.

RAMSEY Our column this week will be taken from the newspapers. You see all kinds of things in the newspapers: sad things, funny things, serious things and, occasionally, something ridiculous. One particular "serious" thing we saw in the papers last week was written by a Perry, Georgia editor concerning the "look" these days. This editor said . JUG LOOK: We reported here last week that we had seen a lady with measurements of 38-38-38 and that constituted the "jug look". Many ladies have made some caustic comments about my remarks and why the --------didn't I print my measure- ments. I went to town and had a tailor to measure me up and the figure came out this way: 39-34-40. We have no idea what name could be applied to these measurements but the ladies prob- ably will have a name, maybe unprintable. We have a name for your "shape", Mr. Editor The ice cream cone look! Oh, but you say, these measurements are the opposite shape of an ice cream cone upside down, as it were? Exactly, and to cap it off, the semblance is there. A shape like this would look just about as interesting as an ice cream cone that had been knock- ed over upside down. And,, occasionally, you find something startling in the news- papers. For instance, this past week, we saw something, in the Apalachicola Times penned by its editor, Joe Maloney, with which we agree a rarity indeed! Editor Maloney said: Moses was the greatest of all lawmakers. He kept the Ten Commandments short and to the point-which shows he was no lawyer. * Newspapers cater to the reading desires of almost everyone. Hardly an edition of any newspaper is printed without a recipe or two, somewhere within its folds. This isn't just to fill space. It's because the ladies like them, and the ladies do '75% of the buying so newspapers cater to their interest, so their advertisements will be read, responded to, and cause a satisfied customer to purchase more advertising. Slick, huh? This recipe we saw was for the world's largest omelet, put out by the Iowa Poultry Association. It consisted of several chopped hams, bags of onions and 1,000 eggs, cooked for 45 minutes in a skillet six feet across. We were particularly interested in this recipe as it reminded us of breakfast at our house when all the kids are at home. And we still have to buy cat food, because there are no table scraps left S* Now... EASY BUDGETING for residential customers! EQ PAYMENT PLAN [S "SSBSS~ 'I:;- evens out the ups-and-downs of homd electric bills You pay the same, easy-to-plan-for amount each month for 11 months ... adjustment bill for the 12th month could be slightly higher, but in mpst cases will be lower. New convenience is optional Our Equal Payment Plan is made available to help our year-round residential customers avoid the inconvenience of seasonal "peak" bills such As occur during the air conditioning season. Not automatic, you apply for it. Who is eligible for Equal Payments? You must (a) be a year-round residential customer of Florida Power Corporation, (b) have established a payment record satisfactory to our Company, and (c) use at least one electric air conditioner or heat your whole home electrically. If you have just moved to your present address or own a home but plan to be away for an extended period, ask us about special arrangements. (The plan has not been authorized for commercial and industrial customers.) No extra cost for equal payments The amount you pay each month for 11 months is simply the total of your electric bills for the past year divided by 11. In the 12th month, you pay the difference between this estimate and your actual bill. Or, if you've paid for more electricity than you actually used, amount due you is refunded. We think our new Equal Payment Plan will make bill paying simpler and easier. It's another way "we say it with service"I For information, phone our nearest office.

Candidates Don't Want to Serve Tuesday, September 5, five can- didates who have qualified for the ,possible offices of Mayor arid Councilmen, are in the unique po- sition of endorsing a 'no' vote against incorporation and of run- ning for a possible office, in Mex- ico Beach. The community has a little more than a hundred voters. The question to be decided on this date is whether or not to in- corporate Mexico Beach. Several of the candidates for election as municipal officers are against the incorporation and endorse a defeat of the referendum. This would, of course, abolish any possibilities for these offices. The candidates ,in this unique position are E. E. Crooms, Sr., Morris Missler, Rich- ard Fortner, Sam Harmon and Mrs. Eileen A. Wright. These candidates have qualified for office with the full intention and desire of being defeated, not by their opponents, but by the vot- ers of the community of Mexico Beach. These candidates state that they feel that incorporation will place an additional undue financial hard- ship on the small permanent popu- lation to provide funds for salaries, supplies, equipment, maintenance of offices, etc., and that more new taxes, licenses, fees, etc., will be the result of incorporation.

At any rate, the unusual situa- tion of running for an office they will vote not to have, is due to the manner in which the bill provid- ing for a referendum was written, making it necessary for candidates in an unincorporated community to run for a possible office at the same time a referendum for incor- poration is being voted on.

Parents of 35 of the 130 seventh graders expressed definite interest in such a program.

Plans are to present this pro- gram on Tuesday night, September 12 at 8:00 p.m. in the high school lunch-room. All parents" of seventh. graders are urged to come and learn how to help their child adjust to his "new" school. Information will be given on the following phases of the junior high program and any other thought necessary by the parent: 1. The schedule. 2. The subjects offered 3. The grading system. 4. Fees. 5. Activities. 6. Suggestions from a teacher in each department on "how to study" his subject. This will enable parents to guide their children in home study. 8. The reading program. 8. Grouping. An opportunity will be given for questions by parents. VISITING BARNES Miss Marlene Werner of Miami is the guest-of Mr. and Mrs. Frank Barnes this week.

Mrs. Bryant Patton, her son Jimmy and other members of the family will be in attendance. The ceremonies will begin at 11:00 a.m. An old fashioned Apalachicola fish fry will be served on the is- land after the dedication. Prices will be $1.00 for adults and 50c for children.

This infor- mation was given to the Port St. Joe Rotary Club last Thursday by Ronald Craven, District Supervisor of the Florida State Parole Com- mission. Craven said that every sentenc- ed, convicted criminal has a pre- sentence investigation of his case where it is decided by the evidence gathered and presented before the judge as to whether a convicted person goes on probation or is in- carcerated. Conditions causing the crime to be committed and attitude of the convicted person bear the most influence as to which sen- tence the convicted person re- ceives Craven said that probation has saved the' State of Florida many millions of dollars since the incep- tion of the program in 1941. And, the success of probation toward re- habilitating the criminal to a use- ful life is 87% with probation. Cra- ven said that it costs the State 56c a day to supervise a person on pro- bation and $4.66 per date to main- tain a person in prison. The speaker said that the State now has 7,000 persons on proba- tion. Craven congratulated Gulf Coun- ty for its low crime rate. He said it was one of the lowest in the State and that cooperation of lo- cal and county law enforcement of- ficers with his office was of the best. Guests of the club were Frank at Roselle of Monticello, Bob Brunner R of Port St. Joe and Bill Thomas of an Port Arthur, Texas.

He also served several terms as Pilot Commissioner. He was County Commissioner of Calhoun County from District 5 from 1919 until the new county of Gulf was created in 1925. It was during his tenure as Coun- ty Commissioner that T. H. Stone began to be the outstanding spokes- man for county division. To attend to the county's business was a 51 mile, three day journey on horse- back. The majority of the county's population was centered in the nor- thern end of the county and they were bitterly opposed to county division. For seven years T. H. Stone worked for county division and was defeated more than once for State Representative on the di- vision platform. It was largely through his untiring efforts that Gulf County was created from Cal- houn County in 1925. T. H. Stone served Gulf County in the House of Representatives 1933-35. T. H. Stone retired from active business in 1938 at the age of 70. However, he maintained various KITCHEN CHATTER by Florida Power Corp. Here is a chicken sandwich re- cipe that is delicious.

Contact uoyan 1io u 2.OO0 Contact Too Late 'To 'Classify By Russell Kay . . Florida News Service Nature in her wisdom protected Florida's thousand mile coastline with a long soft cushion of sand and mud held together by huge mats of tough resilient rushes and grasses. On both coasts, low areas where fresh waters merge with salt, we find bays, basins, lagoons, deltas, sandbanks, marshes and mangrove flats. You may be inclined to think of such areas, as desolate wastes, un- inhabitable and worthless. Such ignorant, senseless reasoning 'has caused man to destroy much of this natural protection that nature provided. Without 'this natural protection storm tides can pile higher and higher on our shores doing millions of dollars worth of damage to pro- perties foolishly built on fills and waterfronts. But such 'material 'loss cannot compare to the greater loss that attends our short-sightedness, for this natural barrier produces a safe haven for all manner of val- uable sealife on which we must depend for food. Every foot of these valuable tidelands we destroy costs us dearly in seafood products. Crabs, crawfish, and a large variety of food fish breed and feed in these protected areas. Just as man has created deserts by destroying trees and vegetation, so he is destroying another valu- able asset in his so-called commer- cial development of our tidal areas. We pour gallons of raw seWage into these areas, in areas where the bulk of our sea'foods breed and grow. We drain them, dredge them and use, them as "garbage dumps, and destroy them entirely to pro- vide ground for a mnew industrial plant or building. We are steadily credting 'tidal 'disaster areas at the taxpayers ex- pense 'and 'making the "storm and hurricanes works of destruction much easier. Our piers, seawalls and dikes -cannot compete with the 'protection that nature provided, as -we cry,'out for wrecked properties, washed out highways and flooded residential and industrial areas. Unfortunately the government, local, state .and federal has worked hand in hand with selfish interests in destroying these valuable areas. The American taxpayer foots the bill as he proudly points to the new industrial plant or hotel built on tidal lands that have been filled in and made available to industry. If you want to know what is real- ly happening in this country in the wanton destruction of our tidal land I suggest that you read, "Our Vanishing Tidelands" in t h i s month's Reader's Digest written by Polly Medford, a member of The Tropical Audubon Society. It will open your eyes and I hope give you a different viewpoint on the impor- tance of preserving such of our tide lands as are left. Mr. or Mrs. L.
