Costin Offers


Mailing for ti


The Post Office Department
breaks records for mail volume
every Christmas but 1967 may
break more records than any oth-
er year, Postmaster Chauncey Cos-
tin said this week.
In urging local citizens to mail
early for Christmas, Costin said
the four-state Atlanta Region, of
which his office is a part, will
handle 100 million more pieces
of mail this Christmas than last
year.
"This increase alone is equal to
the total volume of mail in some
countries for an entire month," he
said.
"Unl p the people cooperate
and get their Christmas mailing
done early, we are going to be
hopelessly swamped just before
Christmas," he said. "Things will
get awfully chaotic."
Costin said Regional Director,
Banks Gladden, this week informed
him that the volume of mail to be
handled in North Carolina, South
Carolina, Georgia and Florida will
total 1,276,700,000 (Billion) pieces
in December-An increase of 100
million or 8.4 per cent over last
December.


Often, they have served as troop leaders. The people of Port St.
Joe are now urged to join in this world wide movement by giving
of their money to finance Girl Scout operations throughout this
Council area.

A delegation from Gulf County
met Tuesday in Panama City with
representatives of the Housing and
Urban Development and Farmers
Home Administration, government
agencies. The purpose of the meet-
ing was to obtain information for
creation of water and sewer dis-
tricts in Oak Grove, White City
and the Beaches area, all in the vi-
cinity of Port St. Joe.
Meeting with the government of-
ficials were Leo Kennedy, and
James Hanlon and Steve Nations
of Wewahitchka. The primary pur-
pose of the meeting was to inves-
tigate further the possibilities of
securing federal assistance in ob-
taining water and sewer service for
Oak Grove, a movement which has
been underway for about a month,
now.
At the only meetingion the Oak
Grove project, held in early Octo-
ber, the community decided to ex-
plore the possibility of securing
federal aid in financing a water
system which would tie on to the
City of Port St. Joe water supply.
The trio who attended the Pan-
ama City meeting will discuss
their findings with residents of
the Oak Grove community tomor-
row night in a meeting to bp.
held in the Oak Grove Assembly
of God Church. The meeting will
begin at 7:00 p.m..and is for all
citizens of Oak Grove.
While meeting with government
officials, the group expanded their
conversation beyond the Oak Grove,
question. It was discussed that pos-
sibly such a system could be pro-
vided for the Beaches area 'and the
White City community, also.," ..
No formal movement for A water
or sewer system for these commun-
ities has been started as yet. Ken-
nedy told The Star that public


meetings will be held next week
for these areas to ascertain whe-
ther or not they wish to pursue the
matter. The Beaches residents will
meet in the Highland View Ele-
mentary School at 7:00, p.m. Tues-
day night and the White City resi-
dents will meet in the White City
fire station next Thursday night
at 7:00 p.m.
Discussion with the government
officials Tuesday was along the
vein of securing financing for the
utility projects such as was fur-
nished Highland View a few years
ago. Highland View received a
grant for, about 40% of their wa-
ter service cost and a government
repayable loan for the' remainder
of the cost.

You're Paying the Bill


It appears to us that there is too much apathy among
the people of our county concerning the construction of
new high school buildings in Gulf County. This apathy bo-
thers us and, we are sure, it bothers our School Board mem-
bers and the Superintendent of Public Instruction.
We do not mean an apathy toward whether proper
school facilities are constructed or not we mean an
apathy toward the cost and facilities considered. We feel
the Board and Superintendent want your interest in the
matter. We believe the apathy we sense is due to the fact
that the buildings will be constructed with race track mon-
ey, and in a sense will not cost the taxpayers any-
thing, or so they think. So, "since it isn't costing us any-
thing, build just anything as long as the money holds out".
But, the people of Gulf County need to wake up to the
fact that the new school buildings are costing them money.
They need, also, to wake up to the fact that this will prob-
ably be the last large chunk of money spent for several
years on school construction. We have heard the Board
state this many times, but it has apparently fallen on deaf
ears.
During the current tax year, the new schools are cost-
ing you six mills. How? Well, the race track funds being
used for school construction were lifted from the County
and School budget income. It took six mills to replace
these funds. If it were not for this project, your tax bill
for this year would be 23.77 mills and not 29.77. In other
words, you would be paying $23.77 on each $1,000 of val-
uation on your property in place of $29.77.
Of great significance, too, is the fact that, barring
any heavy growth, this will be the last money spent for
capital improvements for several years. We must get what
we want and what we need now. This is a grave respon-
sibility to place on the shoulders of our School Board and
Superintendent; one we believe they will be glad to share.
Whether you make a suggestion or not, we believe
a that these two avenues your tax dollar being spent and
the importance of spending it right deserves at least
your undivided interest in the' program.



RECIPE FOR UNDERSTANDING

A few weeks ago, the 1967 National Senior Girl Scout
Conference was held in Indianapolis, Indiana. The purpose
of the meeting was to concentrate attention on ways of
expanding Girl Scout membership in the core areas of cities.
Girls from 58 Scout councils in urban areas representing a
membership of more than one million attended the meet-
ing.

Have you seen your electrician
lately? If the science of electronics
continues to develop as it has over
the past few years, a great many
of us will find that we are depend-

You may not know it but thou-
sands of people are walking around
today with electrical devices per-
forming vital body functions that
keep them going, batteries and
transistors carry life giving cur-

Probably the best known of such
devices is the famous cardiac pace-

of ailing patients from 40 to 70 a

than drugs.
For those suffering from high
blood pressure, an implantable in-
strument has been developed that

in fear and feelings of persecution and frustration. The
present effort being made by the Girl Scouts of America to
bring the opportunities of scouting to all girls living in the
densely populated urban centers of our nation is aimed
directly at the root of the problem. As young people of
different backgrounds can be brought together in the
sharing of common' experiences and goals, the prejudices
of their parents tend to be broken down. For the future,
a base of mutual understanding can gradually be built
among girls who have worked together with each other
to build a bridge of friendship between Americans who
are now too often strangers.
The tremendous enthusiasm, dedication and confi-
dence of the girls attending this conference provided com-
pelling evidence that the America of tomorrow is in good
hands. In their present effort, the Girl Scouts deserve
the thanks and support of all of us.



KEEP IT CLEAN, KIDS

It seems that the youth of our City are reverting to
the Hallowe'en activities of their forebears. It has been
in the past, that the Hallowe'en activities of the youth of
our city have been sort of mild. But, activities Saturday
night sort of got away from the habits of the past few
years, and more of the Hallowe'en of old stood out. But
the youth gave evidences of sort of out-doing their fore-
bears.
One expects tricks on Hallowe'en. You can expect
soap writing on windows, lawn furniture tipped over or
removed to another yard, gates removed, or other harm-
less tricks. But destruction of property is going too far,
now. It's hitting below the belt.
Then, too, when we were a kid, widows, sick people
and old people were exempt from Halowe'en pranks. We
knew it would be a hardship for them to clean up our
"tricks" or replace removed articles. But old people, sick
people and widows seemed to be the favorite target Satur-
day night in the "Trick or Treat" festivities.
This isn't right. :


Hardly anybody minds the tricks, but don't go too far
kids.


One widow woman reported that her screens were cut
from the frames, necessitating that new screens be bought.
Eggs were smeared profusely throughout the city and
other acts, of vandalism replaced the age-old tricks that
have become accepted with the-Halowe'en season.
Have your fun kids, but don't go too far.. You will
ruin it for those who will follow you.

one half years.
Electrical engineers are working
hand in hand with physicians and
surgeons in the development of
various types of muscle simulating
devices and working with paraple-
gics, enabled a patient to stand up
without support and they believe
that through a programmed series
of charges directed to the approp-
riate muscles at the right time they
could conceivably lead to walking.
One of the problems in connec-
tion with such electrical devices is
providing a long life, dependable
power source. If a long life mer-
cury cell is used, a simple opera-
tion is required every two and one
half years to replace, it. Electronic
engineers feel that it is only a mat-
ter of time until methods will be
developed that will permit the re-
charging of batteries through the
skin by the use of nickel-cadmium
cells and a wire coil which will re-
ceive a radio signal from a nearby
transmitter. ,
To make the patient independent
of limited-life power sources engin-
eers are experimenting in an at-
tempt to make the body itself act
as a battery by implanting dissimi-
lar metals in salt-water-containing
tissues. Experiments with animals
in this manner have successfully
produced a small but steady power
output.
Scientists, surgeans and engin-
eers all working on the problem
believe that they have only scratch-
ed the surface in muscle stimula-
tion through the use of electricity
and hope someday in the not too
distant future to develop devic4e
that can be implanted to ?inrn
proper function of our vital organs
even though they may be tired and
worn out.
Success achieved so far has been
so miraculous and promising that
it appears such hopes are more
than justified and the old gag
about getting our batteries rechar-
ged will acquire a new meaning.

LETTERS

to the Editor

Editor, The Star
Dear Sir:
I witnessed something today
(Friday) that made me curious and
so I asked questions all over the
town of Wewahitchka and this is
what I found out and I wondered
if it would work in Port St. Joe.
I saw one of the cars from the
Sheriff's Department going in at
the back of the school yard and
thinking there might be an acci-
dent or something, I stopped to in-
vestigate. This is what I learned.
It was Deputy Jim Pickron and,
City Clerk, Mrs. Adele Lister. They
met with the high school in gen-
eral assembly. The deputy proceed-
ed to call some senior boys to the
stage that had been elected by
their classmates to serve during
the Hallowe'en week end as city
officials; that is, Mayor, Commis-
sioners, Clerk, Attorney, Police,
Firemen, Superintendent of Public
Works and everything. Then the
City Clerk got up and swore them
all in to serve from Saturday noon
until Sunday midnight.
In talking with people all over
town, I learned that Dr. Canning
started this many years ago. The
kids make their own curfews, set
fines for soaping windows and
things, the fines to go on their
senior trip, and the people say
they are real good about patrolling
the town, that there is no juvenile
delinquency on that week end, and
that it has been that way since the
beginning of the kids reign as city
officials.
I went by City Hall and asked
the clerk, and Mrs. Lister showed
me letters she had received from
towns as far away as Pittsburgh,
Chicago, and Seattle, inquiring
about how it was done. Seems citi-
zens from these places were in
Wewa through the years and had
observed how well behaved the
young folks are on Hallowe'en.
It (speaks well for Wewahitchka,
and for Dr. Canning the Mayor,
and I wonder if it would work in
St. Joe? Or do we have something
like that. I never heard of it if we
do. What do you think?
Yours,
T. A. SMITH
(Mr. Smith: The nearest thing
we have to this program is the
Rotary-sponsored Student Gov-
ernment day in the Spring.
Possibly some thought could
be given to modifying this pro-
gram and changing the date of
observance to coincide with Hal-
lowe'en.-Ed)


Mr. Kennedy is right in one respect. The County has not bud-
geted funds for Welfare office use. They also have a tight budget
that won't allow much stretching. But, when people come up want-
ing the County to get into the Government Commodities program
the money is found to do this by taking it from a fund used to
make cash payments to the same people who will be receiving the
commodities. We think a thorough search of the funds will reveal
something that can be curtailed by about $1,500 which will make
rent money available.
Mr. Kennedy has also stated that there is no room in the
new Courthouse for the Welfare office. And, to a certain extent,
he's absolutely right. The Courthouse was built to house the sev-
eral offices of county government just like any county court-
house. It didn't seem the prudent thing to do, building offices
that may or may not be used,
But, there is one office in the 'new courthouse which will not
be used. Whether this is large enough, only the Welfare people
should decide. And, too, every county government agency office
as they now stand, have much too much room. Some of the agencies
with lesser activities could do a little sharing for a year at least.
Mr. Kennedy objects to this on the premise that the county of-
ficers wouldn't take kindly to sharing their office space. I have no
doubt but what Kennedy is absolutely right here. But the fact
remains the Courthouse is built for the use and convenience of the
people of Gulf County not the elected officers of Gulf County.
If the "druthers" of some county officer is disturbed to better
serve the people of he county, then we say, "it's just too bad".
'* *
Frankly, we couldn't see Mr. Kennedy trying to keep some-
thing from coming to Port St. Joe especially something that
will mean more payroll in the city. He is in business here, and
more payroll means more opportunity for him to do more business.
But, his statements gave the impression that he did, indeed, desire
the office to locate elsewhere and we weren't the only one
who had this impression; But, I'm glad our impression was wrong.

Last week we expressed ourselves editorially as not understand-
ing why County Commissioner Leo Kennedy was in favor of placing
the Welfare Office which is being located in Gulf County, up in
Wewahitchka. We couldn't understand his thinking since the Wel-
fare people had said their need was here in Port St. Joe, where
the population is, where the case load is and where the Courthouse
will be, the first of the year.
Kennedy had espoused placing the Welfare Office in the old
Courthouse in Wewahitchka. We and other county and area
news media had reported him as favoring placing the office
in Wewahitchka but we were the only one who editorially won-
dered why so we got the answer.
Commissioner Kennedy said he was not particularly interested
in placing the Welfare Office in Wewahitchka rather than put it
in Port St. Joe. He said his only reason for advocating Wewahitch-
ka was one of economics for the County. The County must
match rent money paid out by the Welfare Office for office rental.
Kennedy said the County doesn't have the money to match rental
payments for a year and putting the office in the old Courthouse
will relieve the County of having to make rent payments. He says
he advocates placing the office in Wewahitchka for this year, and
then providing quarters here in Port St. Joe next year.
This is his thinking.

Educational Teams Work On

"Action Plans" For Schools


TALLAHASSEE (Special) Six
"support teams" composed of edu-
cators and management personnel
have been formed to draft "action
plans" to submit to the next full
meeting of Gov. Claude Kirk's Com-
mission for Quality Education,
meeting Nov. 8 in Jacksonville.
First responsibility of these
"teams" will be to determine con-
ditions of education that exist in
Florida now, including whatever
legislation was passed by the 1967
session, said Dr. Hugh Adams,
Charlotte County school superin-
tendent on loan to the commission
as coordinator of its five-man exe-
cutive staff.
Others on the staff are Phil Con-
stans, representing the Florida Ed.
ucation Association; Charles Perry,
Governor's office; Jim Bax, on
leave from Florida Atlantic Uni-
Versity as associate coordinator
for the commission; John Seay,
State Department of Education;
and Allen Tucker, Board of Re-


gents.
Adams said the 30-member com-
mission, headed by Jacksonville in-
surance executive Jacob Bryan, "is
in 'dead earnest' about developing
a first-rate, master plan for educa-
tion in Florida." The support teams,
will be supplying the commission
with a number of reports, includ-
ing printed copies of the National
Education Association's 1966 re-
port on Florida schools and those
reports of Governor's Conferences
for the past three administrations.
The commission's meeting in
Jacksonville will be its third so
far, with others scheduled for Nov.
29 in Tallahassee and Dec. 14 and
15 in Tallahassee. The commission
previously held hearings in Miami
and Tampa.
"Our traget date for the final
commission meeting of Dec. 14 and
15 may be changed," said Adams,
"but we are aiming at getting the
completed report into the hands
pf the Governor before Christmas."


After reviewing the report, Gov.
Kirk will call a special session of
the Legislature, which is expected
to take up education and other re-
lated matters including taxes and
Constitutional revision.
Adams said public progress re-
ports will be made every 19 days to
the commission, the governor, the
Board of Repents, State School
Supt. Floyd Christian and the Le-
gislature's bipartisan Committee on
Education.

The commission now has a staff
of nearly 40 people at work pre-

plan." Most of them are working
in office space borrowed from le-
gislators on the third floor of the
Capitol building. The staffers are
being loaned by the Department of
Education, Board of Regents, Flor?

nor's office, Florida Development

The usual fee of $3.00 per per-
son to cover literature, targets and
ammo will be in effect.
Everyone is exposed to firearms
at one time or another, so the
aim of the program is to make the
operation of them familiar enough
so that one can reduce a gun from
a -loaded destructive device to a
safe and useful precision instru-
ment to be enjoyed by all in the
field as well as on an organized
range.
The Gulf Rifle Club will sponsor
the course and its instructors will
conduct it.
The officers of the course will
be: Bob Buchert, Chief instructor,
Audra McLawhon, Secretary-Trea-

lations.
Anyone interested should con-
tact one of these persons to get
registered in the class.

Shorter Days Call

For Greater Care
TALLAHASSEE-Accidents are
expected to increase with the
change back to Standard Time
from Dayight Saving Time the
Florida Highway Patrol said this
week.
Colonel H. N. Kirkman, Director
of the Department of Public Safe-
ty, said, "The time change toge-
ther with the reduced number of
hours of daylight will substantially
increase the percentage of night
driving done by most motorists,
and the accident rate is higher
during the hours of darkness."
Safe driving depends a great
i deal upon good vision and "seeing
j habits", according to Kirkman who
also pointed out that driver vision
Sis reduced greatly at night when
-. artificial light must be used to il-
luminate the highway.
"The old slogan 'slowdown at
sundown' is still good advice", con-
cluded Kirkman, "and drivers
should allow a little extra time for
travel after dark."

Planning to Attend
FSU? Enroll Now

TALLAHASSEE -Florida State
University's director of admissions,
Willis Caldwell, advised this week
that high school students definite-
ly planning to enter Florida State
for the 1968-69 school year should
submit thair applications now.
Florida State follows the Board
of Regents' policy of early admis-
sion of students with "B" averages
through the junior year of high
school. The policy states: "Prior to
the availability of Florida State-
wide Twelfth Grade Testing Pro-
gram scores, the universities may
admit a student on the basis of
other substantial evidence of su-
perior academic achievement and
ability, including no less than a
B average in all academic work
completed in high school."
Caldwell said, "Since our quota
for freshmen students is limited
to less than half of the eligible ap-
plicants and since these quotas fill
very early (the freshman women's
quota for 1967 was filled, for in-
stance, about the first of the year),
all of your A or B students who
definitely plan to enter the Uni-
versity should be urged to make
applications now."
Florida State freshmen enroll-
ment is normally limited to 2,000.

On alleys 3 and 4, Whitco won

man with a 318 series.
On alleys 5 and 6, Glidden won
all four games from AN Railroad

On alleys 7 and 8, Williams Al-
ley Kats are still holding first place
as they took all four games from
Rich's IGA with Eula Dickey push-
ing a 466 series. Bowling high for
the losers was Beth Johnson with

tion was the guest speaker for the
October meeting of the Port St.

Mr. McGee presented a very in-
teresting program on the new low-
voltage lighting systems for after
dark lighting outdoors. Slides were
shown with the system being used
to light areas such as driveways,
trees, entrances, steps, terraces,
pools, flowers, eating areas and
fences.
The low voltage system is inex-

Sight-In Is Set
By Rifle Club
The annual day set aside for area

ber 11, beginning at 9:00 a.m. and
continuing all day. This is a public
service offered each year by the
local Rifle Club and there will be
no charge to the hunters taking
part. The object-is to stress con-
servation of game by assuring
clean kills with guns which have
been zeroed in and thus prevent
crippling shots in the field.
There will also be novelty shoot-
ing with the rifle and shotgun in
conjunction with the Lions Club
annual turkey shoot. A delicious
meal will be served on the grounds
for $1.00 a plate by the ladies divi-
sion of the Rifle Club and a free
valuable door prize will be given
away at 4:00 p.m. Tickets for the
prize may, be obtained from mem-
bers of. the club. Certified- instruc-
tors of the Club will be in charge
of the range and to assist in any
way they can.
As a special added attraction,
the Club will throw 25 skeet birds
for $1.25. Bring your shells left
over from last year and try your
luck on the new trap field or you
may purchase shells at the range.

Let's talk


about budgets!
Budgeting is to.ughi these days.
It seems that every time you turn around
the cost of something 5s going up.
The economists tell us it's to be .expected.
Maybe so, but it sure makes running a home difficult.
We -wish we could tell you that A&P has .the answer
to all your difficulties, but we can't... no store can.
We can tell you this:
There is one guaranteed way to cut your food bill
without sacrificing quality; buy A&P's own brands.
Hold it... don't scoff...we're serious.
- We don't have our own private national brands just to have low prices.
If it isn't a quality product, it can't carry the A&P Seal.
Take A&P Brand Canned or Frozen Vegetables for example.
They're GRADE "A"...you can't buy better; .
If you buy A&P Brands, we guarantee you'll reduce your total food bill.
We also guarantee every A&P product you buy...unconditionallyA

earn a Registered Pharmacist's license. The applicant must
demonstrate his willingness to comply with our high State
standards of practice. Our State law also requires that a
pharmacist keep his prescription records for a number of
years. These files... of every prescription he fills... must
be open to inspection by the State Board of Pharmacy at
all times. In addition, the Federal government has legis-
lated specific laws for control of narcotics and adulterated
or misbranded pharmaceuticals. The various States have
also passed laws dealing with labeling. With this protection.
