Turkey Gobblers Released



In Ball Management Area


- Six mature turkey goyblers
were released on the .Edward
e Ball Game Management Area
s' near Port St. Joe this week, by
- the Florida Game and Fresh Wa-
ter Fish .Commission..
The turkeys were trapped in
- the Lykes Fisheating Creek Ref-
uge in Glades County, banded
and numbered, placed in special-
ly made paper cartons and flown
to Apalachicola.
s They were picked up at the
airport by Regional Wildlife Bio-
logist Charles Turner 'and im-
s mediately released in the man-
agement area by Richard McClel-
land, Game Supervisor and A.
W. McDonald, local wildlife of-
ficer.
Nine adult' female turkeys will
be placed in the area in the near
future.
These turkeys' are a part of
the turkey relocation program
of the Florida Game and Fresh
Water Fish Commission, created
for the purpose of building up
the turkey population in areas
where they are almost extinct.
The turkeys released locally on
the Ball Management Area are
part of 45 turkeys to be released
by the Game Commisison in the
Northwest Florida Region in
1968.
Tom S. Coldewey, vice presi-
dent of St. Joe. Paper Company,
and Henry Maige, woodlands
manager of the firm's Port St.
Joe land unit, took' part in re-
leasing the turkeys on the 'Ed-
ward A. Ball Area."
Dr. Richard H. Schultz, Third
District Commisiorier, said that
game management personnel and
wildlife officers directing the re-
lease reported that t he turkeys
were fine specimens and were in
excellent condition. "It is hoped"
Dr. Schultz said, "that the tur-
keys will acclimatize quickly
here, and that the relocation pro-
gram will result in good turkey
populations in this area.

On "Look And Guess" Children


For forty years education in this country has been
handicapped by a method of reading education called
"whole-word" method, "look-say" method, picture read-
ing or configuration reading. "Look-and-guess" would
have been a better name. The child has been exposed to
pictures which .he is to associate with words. Actually,
this "modern" innovation constituted a reversion to the
ise -of pictographs of the kind used by primitive man.>
In adopting the system, our educationists threw over-
board the alphabet, invented over 3,000 years ago, and
adopted first by Greece and later by nearly all civilized
nations.
Parents' and the public at large were generally un-
aware of this .new word-picture method of primary edu-
cation until the disastrous results were apparent. John-
ny couldn't read. And when he couldn't read, he could-
n't master English nor any of the other subjects being
taught. Reading ability, after all, is the indispensable
requirement for all subjects.
ESx years ago, a group of 250 alarmed educators',
authors, civic leaders and parents formed what they call-
ed the "Reading Reform Foundation." The purpose: to
expose the obvious failure of the look-and-guess method,
and to force the educationists to restore the alphabet to
its proper place as the basis of elementary reading instruc-
tion. The'good news is that they are beginning to win
their battle.
No less a person than the top man in education in
this country, John Gardner, Secretary of Health, Educa-
tion and Welfare, has gone on record describing as "the
most important book on American education of the past
10 years," a book which has analyzed all the research on
beginning reading and finds: ". the research from
1912 to 1965 indicates that a code-emphasis (the alphabe-
tic) method. produces better results." In other words,
for 40 years, the educationists have been using an inef-
fective method. The fact is that alphabet-trained students
read better, spell better, 'understand better. (The book:
"Learning to Read, the Great Debate" by Jeanne S. Chall,
Professor of Education, Harvard University-McGraw-
Hill, Inc.)' See December's "Reader's Digest" for more
about this book and its -author .
We consider ourselves lucky to have been taught by
the "old-fashioned" method, just before it faded from the
scene. We can still remember, back in Shamrock, Okla-
homa, Miss Ewing and Miss Elsie Haught saying: "This
little mark indicates, a 'short' "e" .. It makes the sound
"eh" and you will find it in such words as 'bed', 'red', etc.
Repeat the sound after me now, "eh", "eh"." And so it
went, through the alphabet. And as -a result, without
an ounce of bragging, we can state that we can read or
spell almost anything, simply because we know what the
letters-particularly the vowels-sound like.
Frantic and frustrated parents need no longer be
afraid to -tackle their local school boards and school ad-
ministrators on the subject of restoring the alphabet me-
thod of teaching beginners to read. If your child, niece,

Employer-employee relations is
a subject that has had business
men -scratching their fast balding
heads for years and given profit-
able employment to numerous psy-
chologists, consultants and per-
sonnel directors.
. The problem seems to. rest on
the content and happiness of em-
ployees. As business organizations
grow and expand, employers lose
the close personal contact with
their employees that existed when
they were smaller.


As companies grow, executives
lose contact with the increasing
number of employees, the workers
become numbers rather than indi-
viduals and this loss of personal
contact and interest leads to trou-
ble in the organization. ,

MEN WITHOUT A COUNTRY

When word came that Sweden had granted political
asylum to the four American sailors who deserted the USS
Enterprise, the incident brought to mind a classic story of
yesteryear, "The Man Without A Country". Possibly be-
cause of its "superpatriotism," this tale by Edward Ev-
erett Hale is not as widely read as it used to be, the more's
the pity. Maybe, if it were there would be fewer incidents
like that of the four sailors.
By now everyone knows their story. They jumped
ship at Japan, where "leftists" took them in tow. Under
"leftist" sponsorship they held a press conference at which
they damned this country for its role in Vietnam. They
next surfaced in the Soviet Union where again they pro-
vided grist for the Communist propaganda mill with their
anti-American statements. Following this they turned
up in Sweden where they asked for political asylum, which
was granted.
Those who have read the tale of Philip Nolan know
how it tells of a young West Point lieutenant who fell un-
der the spell of Aaron Burr in 1807 and was court-mar-
tialed for a role he played in Burr's plot to set up an em-
pire. When, at the close of the trial, he was asked if he
wished to say anything to show he had been faithful to
the United States, he cried out in a way reminiscent of
many modern young Americans:
"Damn the United States! I wish I may never hear
of the United States again!"
The story then tells how he got his wish. Placed on
a succession of naval vessels he never again set foot on
U. S. soil, and for more than half a century all news of
the United States was withheld from him. But in that
time ,his love for the country he had renounced grew
great, as did his remorse for the renunciation' .
That's the old tale. However, we think the case of
the four y year or so, we predict, this precious foursome will tire
of life in Sweden. They will want to come home, and they'll
get their wish. Here they will not be looked upon as
pariahs or traitors. Rather, throngs of like-minded anti-
Americans will greet them, and their utterances will be
recorded by batteries of TV cameras and by battalions
of reporters. Inevitably, they will be featured on various
TV shows.
What will they say? Will they express feelings of
-remorse as that earlier man without a country did? We
doubt it. That would be a form of superpatriotism, for-
eign to a quartet who scarcely rate as patriots.

and visiting businessmen, all lo-
cated just a short distance from
the heart of Hialeah and the com-'

Lowell Dunn, head of the 11 year
old firm that bears his name, The
Lowell Dunn Company, comes from
North Georgia and established his


business with one dump truck plus
plenty of energy and imagination.
The business has steadily grown
until it today operates over 100
major pieces of equipment and
grosses upwards of $2 million in
excavating and land clearing oper-
ations. The company has shown a
fifty percent increase in growth
each year since it was established,
and is now one of the largest in
South Florida in the field of site

preparation and excavating.
Dunn contends that company
growth and profits alone are not
enough. He believes that they can
be sustained' only if all employees
share management pride and faith
in the company and its imanage-
ment. He plans four company pic-
nics a year at the ranch which he
calls "The Dunn North Forty"
where employees can get to know
and understand each other and
management can rub elbows with
field workers and their families to
become one big happy family.
He is a firm believer in a kind
word and an expression of appre-
ciation when deserved for every-
one from the janitor, truck driver,
up to the top level managers and
foreman. Any employer worth his
salt he points out will go out of
his way to make his employees un-
derstand that he is interested in
them not alone for the service
they give on the job, but as human
beings and individuals. He has
found that the more personal in-
terest he shows in his employees
and their problems the better em-
ployees they become and the great-
er their loyalty and better their
work.


Successful employers are learn-
ing that the more they think of
employees as individuals, people
with the same desires and inter-
ests as themselves, with the same
family .problems, the stronger
their organization will become.

Minimum Driving

Age Raised to

Fifteen Years
TALLAHASSEE The mini-
mum driving age in Florida is
now 15, but the new law enact-
ed in 1967 does invalidate re-
stricted licenses which were is-
sued to persons 14 years of age
prior to September 1, 1967, the
Florida Highway Patrol said this
week.
Patrol commander, Colonel H.
N. Kirkman, sa id, "Parents
should help their children get a
good start with their driving and
teach respect for the law by see-
ing that all restrictions are fol-
lowed by the young driver."
A restricted operator must be
accompanied by a licensed oper-
ator at least 21 years of age oc-
cupying the front seat at all
times. It is unlawful -to drive
without a license, even as a be-
ginner.
"Parents should not allow any ,
deviation for the restrictions pla-
ced upon a minor who is learning
to drive, because it may cause
him to have little or no respect
for traffic rules and regulations
in later life-and thpt could be
fatal," said Colonel Kirkman.

CARD OF THANKS
You have to be there to believe
the wonderful care one receives in
our Municipal Hospital. I was there
and I wish to express my sincere
appreciation for the kindness and
concern shown during my recovery
from a recent automobile accident.
I want to also express my appre-
ciation to my many friends who
were so solicitous.

No doubt you, too, listened to "Lyndon's Fairy Tales" last Wed-
nesday night. The thing that drew my attention most, was not what
he said, but the size of his ears. We remarked 'to, Frenchie how
large Johnson's ears were and then this past week end, Governor
Kirk's father in Alabama called Johnson 'old flop-ears'. Somebody
else noticed too. It would seem that with ears this big, one could
hear the grumbling going on through the nation opposing most of
the programs Johnson proposed in his speech Wednesday night .
especially those things which call for new and increased spending
by the Government. If he hasn't heard the grassroots grumbling
he should have taken notice of the sparse applause most of his
remarks drew from his audience.
*
About the only whole-hearted approval received. by Johnson
was in his calling for increased effort to combat crimes Pin our
towns and cities throughout the nation. Laxity of enforcing
laws, we believe, brought about the situation. It will be a sight
harder to curb, now that lawlessness has been allowed to grow
to such proportions ... now that punishment for crime is prac-
tically non-existant.

The biggest "Fairy Tale" of all was that concerning money-or
rather those instances concerning money, since he made several
points of spending more and trying to take more.
Now, I am no financial wizard. As a matter of fact, I have a
hard time making my own income meet my outgo. We almost de-
clare a dividend around our house when the month and the money
run out at the same time. But it takes no wallet wizard to see the
inconsistencies and shortcomings of Johnson's money programs.
First he called for his now-famous 10% surtax increase again.
He has been told by Congress the increase will be available if the
spending will reflect a decrease. But Mr. Johnson's budget was
even higher than last year. I don't know about you, but an addi-
tional 10% added on my taxes will just about be the straw that
breaks the ant's back. (After taxes, it would take an optimist of
the first water to describe what's left by calling it a camel).

Mr. Johnson called, for removing the gold backing of the dol-
lar, thereby making the entire $12 billions in gold at Fort Knox
available to pay off foreign claims against the dollar. Maybe that's
alright, but would some of you financial wizards explain to this
admitted financial drip, what happens when the $12 billion stock-
pile is all used up in paying off foreign demands? Don't tell me
it won't all be spent. The supply is dwindling now and we see
nothing in Johnson's proposal that will stop the drain. Unless
a stopper is placed in the drain, all of the water will go.

The President wants an additional $2.1 billion to pay for jobs
for 500,000 hard-core unemployed; If we figured this correctly,
this comes to $4,200 per man, including administration costs. If
the government hadn't messed with the guaranteed wage limits,
these people would have been employed long ago by industry and
business which can't afford to pay the present day price for their
talents. Also, most of these people can take home more money
than this or at least, nearly this much, by welfare payments. Why
work for what is given them? These people aren't out of work
because there are no jobs. Well-meaning Government and its bene-
volent programs have priced them out of the job market.

The President said that the administration was still study-
ing Vietnam's call for a halt in bombing of North Vietnam as a
price tag for peace talks. They can stop thinking now Ho
Chi Minh removed his offer this past week end. But, even so, we
could never agree to a halt in any phase of the fighting, unless
the halt was applicable to both sides. If there is a lull in the fight-
ing or a halt in any phase, it should be honored by both sides.
The United States shouldn't be requested to halt is pursuance
of the war in any manner, unless North Vietnam offers to do
likewise. When this agreement is reached, we can be assured
that North Vietnam is interested in peace and not some
form of chicanery.

Lyndon called for the approval of a budget which would re-
quire $186 billion to finance and then it would be $8 billion
in the red. That's a lot of zeroes. We can't even imagine that
there's that much money in the world. There must be though.

western Gulf County during the
past few years. They have con-
structed a vast network of roads,

ded thousands of acres of forest-
land and planted pine trees. Dur-
ing 1967, they plowed 100 experi-
mental acres of unplanted, very
poorly drained land and planted
soybeans in conjunction with a
CalhounCounty farmer.
The rainfall was unusually low
in this area and a fair production
of this crop was made. Now this
company is in the process of plow-

for soybeans, corn and other farm

In an effort to determine the

This; company is to be commend-

It is important to note that only
earnings should be shown on the
report. Such things as rental in-
come, dividefids from investments,
and interest from savings are not
considered earnings. Starting in
1968 an individual may earn up to
$1680 before his Social Security

The deadline for filing the an-

it could mean a loss of additional

ORLANDO-The Florida Bank-
ers Educational Foundation (FBEF)
offers scholarship/loans to Florida
resident students interested in a
banking career. The Foundation is
financed by contributions from
commercial banks in the state. The
purpose of the loan fund is to as.
sist Florida University students en-
tering their junior year who plan
to major in finance and who need
financial aid.
Upon the recommendation of
the Dean at his university, a stu-
dent may apply for a scholarship-
loan for his last two years of col-
lege. Amounts granted range from
$200 per school term to a maxi-
mum of $1,300. If a student enters
banking in Florida, the total
amount of the scholarship/loan is
forgiven after one year of service
in Florida banking. Should the
graduate choose another career
his loan becomes repayable six
months after graduation at $25 per
month; however, the loan accrues
no interest until six months after
graduation. A student who enters
graduate school or the enlisted
ranks of the Armed Forces is ex-
empt from the repayment terms
of his loan until he finishes his
schooling or serves his military ob-
ligation. -I
Since the Foundation's beginning
in 1954, 281 Florida students have
used its funds to help finance
their education. Many of these stu-
