July, 19'

A new board of directors was
elected by members, of the St.
Joseph Bay Country Club in a
short meeting held last Thursday
evening in the Port St. Joe High
School Auditorium.
Approximately 90 members
were present and elected Bill
Altstaetter, R. H. Ellzey and
John Hanson of Port St. Joe
and P. E. Connell as directors
for a one year' term.' Charles
Brock, E. F. Gunn, Tom Enox
and B. A. Pridgeon, Jr., were
elected for two year terms. T.
E. Ely, Bob Freeman, B. Roy Gib-
son, Jr., and Wes Thompson
were named for three year terms.
In a short meeting which fol-
lowed, the directors re-named

in Accident last Friday
One- auto suffered slight dam-
ages in an accident last Friday
on the A&P Super Market park-
ing lot, according to local police
records.
Mrs. Patricia Wilson Truman.
of 1617 Woodward Avenue was
entering a parking space when
her car struck the left rear fen-
der of an auto owned by Mrs.
B. G. Buzzett. Approximately
$150.00 worth damages were in-
flicted on the Buzzett car.


City Commissioners are 'still
wrestling with the question of
whether or not to contract' ut
the garbage and trash collection'
services of the City or to con-
tinue in the service as in the
past. Hughey Williams .Garbage
'Service of Port St. Joe' has sib-
mitted the low bid for perform-
ing the service. Williams already
operates this type services in
unincorporated -areas of, South
Gulf County. (-;' iK i ;
The Commnission has:Made uip
its mind on several matters, if
it contracts out the service. First
the Commission has decided that
they will remain in., control of
the type service offered, The con-
tract will be dravn in suck a
manner that the City, will be re-
sponsible for the ,'type service of-
fered with Williams' firm merely
retained by the City for the col-
lection service.
Secondly, the dity will remain
ready at all times to resume col-
lection service, if the contracted
service is not satisfactory.
The City will do all billing
and maintain relations with the
customers.
All garbage customers will still
be dealing with the City, no mat-
ter whether the service is .con-
tracted out or not.
Commissioners' discussed sev
eral reasons pro and con for the
contracted service Monday night.
Commissioner Coldewey pointed
out that a contracted service
would prevent the City from
getting into such a predicament
as Atlanta now finds itself. Col-
Idewey said that even though he
leaned toward the City doing its
own collecting, this was some-
thing to think about.
Street Superintendent Dorton
Hadden told the Board that his
department would need a new
truck to replace ope recently
wrecked if the City' remains in-
the collection service.
* Commissioner Bob Fox noted
the increasing problem of keep-
ing labor on the service.
Mayor Pate said that every day

In a short business meeting,
Brock explained that a meet-
ing was held with FHA officials
last Wednesday- and that all con-
ditions to approving the $285,-
000 loan for construction of the
facility were agreed to. Brock
said the loan papers are now be-

ney. Brock predicted that the
loan would be closed by May and
bids could then be called for.
Brock estimated that bids
would be received and construc-
tion started by August or Sep-
tember with the facility 'ready
for use by July of next year.
Brock noted that the Club did-


n't get as much money as it had
hoped and that prices of con-
struction had continued to rise.
Even so, the Club plans to call
for bids on constructing an 18-
hole golf course, children's play-
ground, two tennis courts, a
swimming pool and a club house.
The president announced that
George G. Tapper had agreed to
donate $57,000 worth of paving

project which would help con-
siderably.
In a short ceremony Brock
handed S. L. Barke 'the number

first man to join in the member-
ship drive last year.

A Welcome To Easter

Every holiday is accompanied by certain customs and tradi-
tions. Most of them are characterized by exhausting, frenetic activity.
Even Christmas, with its centuries-old religious connotation, leaves
participants exhausted from holiday festivity. Other holidays are marked
by equally strenuous exhibitionism. Memorial Day is inextricably linked
to the "Indianapolis 500"-a gruelling death-defying auto race. Labor
Day and the Fourth of July have become occasions for a mass exodus
to the seashore and mountains that make the trek of Hannibal and his
elephants pitiful by comparison. ,

Perhaps because of its antiquity, as well as its meaning to
Christians, there is one holiday that is commemorated in a different man-
ner. ) Easter, which this year is observed on March 29, is usually a quiet
occasion. Children hunt their colorful Easter eggs in the cool dampness
of a spring morning. Instead of heading for the mountains or the sea-
shore; millions of Americans make a special effort to go to church on
Easter Sunday. :

With this annual reminder that Christ died on a cruel cross for
man's sins, it is only fitting that Easter be observed as it is. Easter, like
no preacher or witnessing Christian can, reminds everyone of this su-
preme sacrifice and brings the church of our Lord to the forefront more
emphatically than at any other time of the year. Easter means wor-
ship.- Easter means reverence. Easter means Christ died for us -
nothing else. ,

Easter ,s a wholesome kind of ,holiday. It gives everyone an
opportunity to recuperate in a small measure from the harassments of
daily life and reflect on the spiritual. Its coming will be more than
welcome.


Pickets For Decency


.Most people, we believe, are becoming utterly bored
wit'h./"news" stories that are no- longer news, relating the
anticlsof every handful of hate-America pickets and dem-
onatitators. It -is somewhat a welcome twist to read
S.'aJ plickkt line demonstrating FOR decency.
Just such unusual reporting comes from Derry, New
Hampshire, where all of the leading clergymen in town
are picketing the Plaza Cinema to protest the showing
of a film which has been held in some courts as obscene.
The picture has a "condemned" rating from the National
Catholic Office for Motion Pictures, and the film indus-
try itself rate the movie "X", indicating that it js "for
adults only" and that persons under a certain age. are
not to be admitted.
However, the. ministers, all members of the Clergy-
men's Association in Derry, don't buy the argument that

If you are concerned about
"hair", and I don't mean the so-
called show of that name, you
can face the future with more or
less confidence.
Japanese dermatologists are
reported to have come up with'
a new nylon substitute for hu-
-man hair. They claim they can
actually plant it in the human
scalp, just as; human hair is
now being transplanted.
Now you no longer need to
worry about falling hair or bald-

with a full head of glorious ny-
lon hair that can be any color
you might designate. It is claim-
ed that it will look so natural
that "only your hair dresser will
know."
Of course you will probably
pay through the hair in your
nose to secure this wonderful
false dome. Good looks don't
come for free, you know.
It would surprise me to see a

a different set of moral values should be applied after a
person reaches the age of 17 or 18. flhey contend that
what is bad for youth is bad for adults. They say that
there is a real connection with the showing of hard core

All these youngsters with hair
down to their shoulders are 'go-
ing to need a replant when they
reach the age of 40 or 50. How
could they go on living if for
any reason their lovely hair
should start thinning or falling
out?
But why limit such nylon trans-
plants to humans? Why not pro-
vide it for animals? Think of
the shaggy dogs we might deve-
lop. And if we could provide
minks with a new coat of hair,
'who could tell the difference?
Mama could enjoy her mink-ny-
lon. coat and nobody would know
for sure.
Personally I do not have much
of a hair problem. My hair has
only recently started to turn grey
around the edges and folks tell
me it is becoming. Frankly, I
couldn't care less. Whether or
not I am attractive to the op-
posite sex bothers me very little.
I am not as interested in grow-
ing new hair, nylon 'or human,
but would like someone to come
up with an answer to nose hair,
hair on my ears and other non-
orthodox places, including the
bridge of my nose. I am sure
my mother-in-law w would be
equally interested in anything


that would help her surpress the
hair on her upper lip.
While I wish the Japanese
scientists all the luck in the
'world I can assure them here and
now that they can't count on me
as a customer. I would rather go
to my grave with what might be
left of my own natural hair than
resort to some trick nylon pro-
duct designed to fool folks into
thinking I was something other
than myself.
But in this crazy mixed up
hour in: the world's history I can
understand how some folks
might fall for the temptation to
acquire a new head of hair even
if it is nylon.

THE GIFT OF

ART


BY JAMES WOLF
Drawing and Sketching are two
different things. Sketching is a
form of drawing but brawing, in
most cases is not sketching.
A sketch is loose and free. Many
times a sketch is a preliminary no-
tation, or a fast record of visual in-
formation. A sketch can serve as a
study of lesson process. Putting
down an idea may serve as a sketch
which later can be worked into a
finished drawing. A sketch book
may be considered as an idea book.
A drawing is a finished work of
Graphic Art, which is a deliberate
expression in the artists' own
materials, concepts and feelings.

Senator Birch Bayh, although firmly against the confirmation
of G. Harrold Carswell to the Supreme Court, gave a convincing
argument over a televised news report the other night, as to just-\
why Carswell SHOULD be nominated'to the Court.
Bayh was asked just why he was opposing Carswell. Bayh re-
plied, "Carswell has a-reputation of being reversed too many times
by the higher courts. He has been reversed in 18 decisions by the
U. S. District Court in cases involving civil rights. His (Carswell's)
decisions weren't, in the opinion of the courts, in keeping with their
opinion of what the country needs at this time in the way of civil
rights".
How much better can, one state a position FOR the Judge, even
though trying to oppose. Bayh has now gone on record as saying,
in effect, that the higher courts are making their own rules, reg-
ulations and laws as they go along to suit their opinion, rather than
abiding strictly by the Constitution -and by laws and precedents
on the statute books. .
We don't know too much about law, but it is our understand-
ing that a Judge is for interpretation of the law .. not making
his own rules. Because Carswell operated in this manner he now
draws the fire of such as Senator Bayh. .
Our young men's Sunday School class at the Long Avenue Bap-, /
tist Church took its annual Spring snapper fishing trip on the new
boat of George Holland, who happens to be one of our members..
It was one rough day. The water was rough fromn the time
we left the dock til we got back just as the "front" hit this area
Saturday evening. But, even so, we caught a fine catch of snapper. '
We have to say this about George: we have been taking this trip
now for four or five years and we have always caught the fish.
But this time, we got sick. The first time I have ever been sea-
sick. But, let me tell you, what with the rough water and all, we
had plenty of company on board. Only a couple out of the 20 who
took the trip got "throwing up" sick (and I was one of them), but
nearly everybody was queasy. Still we caught fish, -
We had one mountaineer from Kentucky on board, Richard Cor-
nett, who, has,recently moved to our city, and when he got sick he
did it up in .a big way. Richard remarked, "Now I know why Peter
wanted to walk on the water in that stormy sea. just anything to
get off that rocking boat!"
Richard didn't have the faith of Peter though, because he
stayed right on that boat until it hit the dock somewhere near
the back rail most of the time.
S *
We 'tip our hat in appreciation to Senator Harry Byrd of Vir-
'ginia.
Senator Byrd has said he will withdraw from the Democratic
party next year and become an independent. Senator Byrd is with-
drawing because the Democrats of his state require signing of a
loyalty oath to support every Democratic candidate nominated, or
running on the party label. Senator Byrd said that he could not
obligate himself to support an unknown candidate with unknown
ideas. '


More need to follow Senator Byrd's example and commit them-
selves to vote only for the best candidate, and not for a party.

pounds every two days thnereafier until your weignr is uuow.n
normal. The secret behind this new "quick weight loss" diet
is simple. Fat does not form fat. And the grapefruit juice
in this new diet acts as a catalyst (the "trigger"), to start the
fat burning process. You stuff yourself on the permitted food
listed in the diet plan, and still lose unsightly fat and excess
body fluids. When the fat and bloat are gone you will cease
to lose weight and your weight will remain constant. A copy
of this new and startlingly successful diet plan can be obtained
by sending $2 to GRAPEFRUIT DIET PUBLISHERS,' 1213 Pre-
mier Way, Calgary 6, Alberta. Money-back guarantee. If after
trying the diet plan you have not lost 7 pounds in the first
seven days, and 11Y2 pounds every two days thereafter simply
return the diet plan and your $2 Will be refunded promptly
and without argument. Tear out this message as a reminder.
Decide now to regain the trim, attractive figure of your youth,
while enjoying hearty breakfasts, lunches and dinners.

Miss Pani Wilson, daughter of
"i Mr. and Mrs. James T. Wilson,
of 802 Garrison. Ave., Port St.
Joe, has been named a recipient
of the Weslyan Scholar Award
by Wesleyan College in Macon,
/ Georgia. Over four hundred
high school seniors were nomin-
ated for the award by the prin-
cipals of schools located in many
states in the .southeast. Miss
Wilson, who was nominated by
B. Walter Wilder, principal of
Port St. Joe High School, is one
of only nineteen students who
will receive the award.
According to Dr. W. Earl
Strickland, president of Wesley-
an, the criteria used in the selec-
tionl of scholar recipients were
academic excellence, leadership
potential, personal integrity, so-
cal maturity, and emotional sta-
iility. I addition, each finalist
was reqFrId' to have aper-sodJl,
interview '"Oth' a representative-
of -the college. Neither race, re-
j. gion, qeed,-nor state of resi-
dence was a criterion, Dr. Strick-

was the yearbook copy editor and
assistant business manager. She
was also elected to the Home-

a NCTE finalist, second runner-

Wesleyan is the first college in
the world chartered to grant de-
grees to women. Since 1836 it
has remained intentionally small
and traditionally select and now
has a student body numbering ap-
proximately 500.
Wesleyan offers a diversified
curriculum suited to the differ-
ent interests of individuals. With
a strong emphasis on both the
'liberal arts and fine arts, cour-
Ses 'of study' are' offered that

elor of Arts degree, the Bache-
lor of Fine Arts degree, and the

.Last County 6Seat MOVe a eGadsden became number five


by HAROLD BELL
SFlorida's last county to be
formed was Gilchrist County
Which completed the 67 we now
Have. This was on December 4,
1925.
Located just west of Alachua
and southeast .of 1'Dixie County,
1 Gilchrist is one of the smallest
in area of the 'tafte total. The
total area is only 300 square
miles. '
The 66th county was official-
' ly formed just a few months
earlier with Gulf County com-


ing in on June 6, 1925. This one
was formerly part of Calhoun
County.
An interesting observation is
that it was a total of 104 years
between the first and last Flor-
ida counties to be formed. Escam-
bia was the very first and the
date was July 21, 1821. Military
Governor Andrew Jackson cre-
ated this and St. John's County
on the same date but the offi-
cial order shows Escambia to be
number one.
In 1822, the third and fourth,


in the year 1823 as aid Monroe
in the same year. This was the
sixth county.' '
The year 1824 saw Leon come
in as the seventh and Walton as
number eight.
Other North Florida counties
to come in during the next few
years included Jefferson as num-
ber 13 on January 20, 1827, and
Madison next on December 26 of
the same year.
All the counties up until this
time were admitted during the
time classed as the Territoriail
period. When the first Territor-
ial Constitutional Convention was

held in St. Joseph in 1838, there
had been a total of twenty coun-
ties formed.
Ten years later, Holmes Coun-
ty came in for one of the first
afterfFlorida had become a state.
This was number 27 and on Jan-
uary 8, 1848.
Two Florida county seats have
been changed during the past
eight years. The latest is Gulf-
County which voted on May 26,
1964 to move the seat of govern-
nient from Wewahitchka to Port
St. Joe.
State records show the referen-
dum vote was 2,410 to move the
county seat to Port St.' Joe while
1,849 voted to keep it in Wewa-
hitchka.
In case some readers of this
article might wonder how a coun-
ty seat location 'may be changed,
voters' of a county may vote on
such a proposal upon a petition
of one-third of the qualified vot-I
ers who are also taxpayers on
real or personal property in the
county. In this case, the popu-
lation had shifted in Gulf Coun-
ty during the past several years
with Port St. Joe having many
more residents.
Records. show that Collier
County had moved the county
seat from Everglades to East
Naples and into a new court-
house on September 30, 1962.
Elections had been held for this
in 1959.
A removal of a county seat in'
Northwest Florida occurred back
in 1927 when Washington County
shifted its affairs from Vernon
to Chipley. Chipley is actually
the fourth county seat for the
county. The first county seat was
at Moss Hill, the next at Arcadia
and then Vernon before moving-
to Chipley.
Dade County ,now teie' most
populous in Florida, has had an
interesting exchange of county
seats. The first was established at
Indian Key on February 4, 1836,
was moved to Miami in 1944. An-
other move was made in June
of 1889 and reclaimed by Miami
ten years later, in 1899.

Burn Headlights
TALLAHASSER The Plorida
Highway Patrol today reminded
motorists that Florida law requires
the use of low beam .headlights
during the daytime when driving in
rain, smoke or fog.- ... .
Patrol Director Reid Clifton said,
"Florida's daytime headlight law,
for driving in bad weather, is still
unknown or unpracticed by some
of our local residents and many
ld of our out-of-state visitors. By obey-
es ing the law, chances of becoming
ng involved in an accident due to poor
of visibility are lessened.
rn, Clifton feels very strongly that
the law helps drivers avoid acci-
dents by making 'cars visible. "If
rry you know the location of a car,
the there is less chance you'll collide
ply with it," he said.
eTy
can The law requires that low beam
headlights be used when driving
in rain, smoke, fog or when visibi-
lity is reduced to 500 feet or less.
According to Clifton, parking
lights or any auxiliary lights d6
not meet the requirements of the
law.

Though the name has changed,
and Mr. Coulter no longer heads
that agency, the newly named Di-
vision of Forestry is holding high
its long standing and well 'earned
trophies.. evidence of devotion
to public service. Florida's forest,
once stripped, has also changed.
The key- which makes such a
change possible is called "good for-
est management."
It is the primary job of the for-
ester to offer recommendations for
improving forest management. His
assistance to the tree farmer is
designed to help the landowner get
a better dollar return from his
timberland.
The county forester works with
the landowner to set up a plan de-
signed for immediate harvests and
dollar returns, if possible. Surely
a good portion of the plan has to
do-with the "big picture," -the long
view which comes from planning
into the years and decades ahead.
There is an example of two tim-
berland owners. O'ne enjoyed a re-
peated dollar return from his for-
est land. The other scraped up
hardly enough from his timber to
pay taxes. And thereiun lies the dif-

ference in types of management,
or indeed types of. forests .
. But the overriding advantage of
proper forest management is that
It provides for additional and con-
tinuing harvests all along. Instead
of selling out on a clear-cut deal
and ending-all return for 20 or 30
years, the "planned" cutting leaves
those trees which promise perhaps
double return if -allowed a few
more years growth.
