Kilbourn Named

________________ ___ AI.skew Woke


Max W: Kilbourn of Port St.
Joe and Wewahitchka has been
appointed Northwest Florida Co-
ordinator by Senator Reuben As-
kew of Pensacola in his bid for
the .Democratic -nomination for
Governor of the State of Florida
in the September primaries.
Senator Askew made this an-
nouncement at a political rally
in Ponce De Leon Wednesday of
last week.
In introducing Kilbourn, As-
kew stated that -he was indeed
gratified to have his campaign
attract .men like "Kilbourn and
Fred Womble of Tallahassee vol-
unteer to assist in my efforts to
give Florida a practical, sensible
conservative administration."
Askew said he knew of several
blank spots in Northwest Flor-
ida's road system. He was also
aware of the critical need for
North-South major highway con-
struction needs to encourage
tourist travel to the "Miracle
Strip". Askew said he could be
counted on to fulfill the needs
in these critical areas.
Kilbourn remarked that "we
now have an opportunity to elect
a conservative ,honest, Christian
gentleman as our next Governor.
I hope Florida will see the light.
I urge my West Florida friends
to join with us in this effort."

Wednesday morning by City Po-
lice officers Howard Rogers and
M. A. Kelly,

Flap Your Wings


Port St. Joe schools will push 111 fledgling adults out
of the nest the first part of next week and they will begin
to fly, in earnest, on their, own. Eighty nine of these
young men and women will come from Port St. Joe High
School and 22 from Washington High.
For 12 years now, trained people have been, at work
moulding, shaping, enticing, challenging, instilling and
encouraging these young adults to begin thinking of them-
selves as. adults. There was also an intense program of
providing knowledge that can be used as tools to make
this new status of adult-hood easier.
The question now remains to be seen "how well can
they fly on their own?"
It happens this way every year, and probably every
teacher who has ever walked in a classroom is constantly
amazed that many of his or her students "make it".
The young ladies and men are eager for it all to be


over, to be free of the daily grind of school. It's been
long time ago, but we remember the feeling. The prc
lem is that it isn't over. it's just beginning. That's w
we compare graduation to a bird being pushed out of
nes '
It's almost trite now to gay "you are the leaders
tomorrow", when it shouldn't be trite at all. That's t
most scary statement anyone ever made because it is
true. It's also true that the job is getting bigger a
requires more responsibility than ever before. May
that's why so many youth are copping out with drug
wild actions, rebellion, etc. On the other hand, the e
citement of the challenge of- this day and time seems
be molding better informed, more determined and mo
responsible young adults than ever before.
When you get right down to thg nitty-gritty of
about the only advice you caI.n give the graduating se
iors, who face the future is to "flap your wings. .. hard


The name of Peter Fonda, along with that of his
actress sister, Jane, makes us glad they aren't our chil-
dren. They have recently appeared in the news of "anti-
vietnam" demonstrations and other things.not quite so
civilized. While we support the right of Fonda, or any
other public figure, .to dissent from government policy-
as we reserve our own right to disagree with the govern--
nient on' many issues-we are somewhat confused 'as to
what moral,, ethical, or practical motives should impel
young Fonda to adopt his "anti-war" stance.
First, it should be recognized that the surveys show
that Fonda makes his money (and it's quite a bundle)
because of his motion picture appeal to many thousands
of the "under 25" age bracket of our population who flock
to see his films.
But what sort of film fare does Fonda present to his
youthful audiences? In a recent review written for "Life"
magazine, a scene was described near the end of a "bike
movie" which Fonda specializes in. "The Angels, led by
Peter Fonda, are about to bury one of their number. They
have already torn up the chapel, beaten and gagged the
preacher and held a wake during which the dead man's
girl was raped on the altar and the corpse itself, propped

There. was a time when you
couldn't get a loan from your
friendly banker unless you left
your right eye as security.
I was brought up to under.
Stand that thrift was a'virtue and
I memorized the admonition of
Benjamin Franklin: "A 'penny
saved, is a penny earned.'
Like kids today I wanted a lot
'of things such as a bicycle, rol-
ler skates, a pony and so on but
Smy parents explained that 'such
things cost money and if I want-
ed them bad enough I could work
and pay for them. Another point
they drilled into me.: a, I
shouldn't consider the purchase
of'such things unless I was able
to pay in full.
SI eventually got my bicycle
-and roller skates and, a'lot of
other things but I earned them
by working for them. I mowed
lawns, dida variety of odd jobs,


carried paper routes, sold pa-
pers on the street and even shin-
ed shoes. My parents weren't em-
bbrrassed by my honest work,
in fact they were proud of me
andi probably got as much plea-
sure as I did -when .1 bought
something I wanted.
I learned the value of a dol-
lar and came to realize hnow many
hours of hard work it took to
acquire the things I wanted. The
experience stood me in good
stead all 'my life. -"
Now our bankers encourage
us to buy anything and every-
thing we want on ,credit. They
have fallen over themselves try-
ing to get folks to accept and use
credit so they can live better

They hope that you will so
overextend yourself so you won't

Is brutality, 'terror, licentiousness, desecration,, a'
the violation of human rights the sort of behavior Fon
would have his youthful followers emulate? If not, wl
does Fonda appear in pictures which clearly feature i
morality as the "in thing?" Does Fonda appear in t

that one achieves his ends (making money) by any mean
It is easy to protest the war in Vietnadi on the grounds
brutality, since, all wars are brutal, but how can Fon
make this claim when his own films clearly espouse bri

Emphasis Placed

On Woodlands

Since about 80% of the West
Florida Resource Conservation and
Development Project (RC&D) area
is used for some type of forestry,
the Florida Forest Service officials
have placed great emphasis on ac-
celerating assistance to all wood-
land owners in an effort to get
a the greatest returns from ,their
ob- lands.
hy Profit from woodland ,is great-
' a est when a landowner keeps his
land fully stocked with desirable
...' trees. In Gulf County this means
of pine on the drier upland and either
he pine or hardwoods on the moist
bottoms and better soil types.
so Under no conditions ,should
md large areas of land remain idle, norf
'be should -they be allowed to grow
gs, weeds., Woodland weeds include.
x- cull trees as 'Well as brush and
S vines. I
tO To put unproductive areas to
)re work making a profit, plans should
be made to plant open areas to
desirable trees and to deaden or
it, remove weed trees. These twp sim-
n- ple forestry practices could double
L!" the growth of wood products in
Gulf County.\
If you need assistance in chbos-
ing the trees best suited for grow-
ing on the many different soils of
Gulf County, or want to know how
to deaden the woodland weeds,
contact your local Soil Conserva-
tion Sdrvice representative, Wiley
he Garrett, concerning he soils in-
formation needed and your County
of Forester, Charles R. Reeves, with
ai the Florida Forest Service, for in-
ng formation on trees best suited.
Your/Soil Conservation Service re-'

nd sion Director,' and your County

Efaoin


Shrdlu
by WESLEY R. RAMSEY


I have to give old Senator Bill Fulbright'of Arkansas
credit.. He will exhaust every effort to get his own way.k
Senator Fulbright has been turning heaven and earth to
make President-Nixon see that he is wrong for letting a
war continue which Senator Fulbright's body authorized
in -the first place. Fulbright has done everything but
burn down the Capitol to make President Nixon "see the-
light".
That wily old fox has done it now., He has pulled the
critical move. Now he is agreeing that Nixon was right
in ordering the search and destroy mission in Cambodia.
The President is bound to see the error of his ways when
he sees Fulbright agreeing with him.

Speaking of errors, Bill Altstaetter thought Chauncey
Costin's post office had committed a giant one the other
day. 'Bill had ordered a special pair of gloves and when
they came in the mail he opened them up expectantly,..
but, lo and behold,. there was only one glove in the pack- ',
age. Bill, naturally, started to work Ghauncey over for'
the inefficiency of his organization.
Chauncey came right back at him. and chided him
for "ordering just -one glove and blaming the Post Office $
because two didn't come". The glove that did come wasn't
even for the right, hand.
Ohauncey does that to us to. When we send a paper
that fails to get, delivered he lets us have ito for not hav-
ing the proper address on it.. If thepost office was any-
where near efficient, they would realign the address to
suit our mailing.

We read in the papers where the "tippy-toe" ses-
sion' of the Legislature may end by the last of this week
-a full week early. The session has been a' lesson in pure
politics. All of the controversial subjects have been dis-
cussed at length, amended,' discussed some more, then
shoved back safely in committee where they will remain
when the old clock on the'wall says "go home".
Then the members of that august body can get down
to the business they got out of bed to do this year on Jan-
uary 1 run for office. Nobody will be mad due to bad
bills being passed. Taxes weren't raised appreciably. Ev-
erything is lovely. We will even be back to one effective
Legislative session every two years with the equivalent
of football "spring practice" every other year.

ithe Turkey Capital of Va. Millions of clicks, too Gobble,

mous and scenic Shenandoah Valley of Virginia!

DEAR FRIENDS:
We hardly know were to start since this insignificant column
has been silent for many months. Might mention the reason for
making print again could be inspired by a slight touch of old
fashioned homesickness?? Yes, some longing for P. S. J., the
white, sandy beaches, the salty, restless waters, now warm and
inviting the fine, lazy sort of fishing (not found here). We
could go on and on with other fond thoughts of this little city
sitting at the edge of beautiful St. Joseph's Bay. Maybe we fail
to really appreciate it until we get away?? So much for that!
Time to get down to business.
First, a salute and hello to the loyal, smiling, friendly per-
sonnel at BOYLES, "The Store With More". Reports from you
have been most encouraging and comforting. Just keep that "ole
Selling Ball" rolling Next,' a warm Hello to our good friends
of 30 years, and last, a big Welcome to the newer residents who
probably never heard of us or "The Tattler". We're living in a
travel trailer at present (both interesting and exciting; suggest
you try it sometime in your. life!) We're eating two meals a
day right at home. In this process we've done quite a bit of
looking around and shopping. We've learned quite a few things.
Shopping can be pleasant, or quite unpleasant .. it depends a
great deal on if, and when you can get waited on. Most important
- is the person who waits on you. Some are haughty and indiffer-
ent. Some wear a blank face .. are methodical and machine-
like. A regrettable few are pleasant, friendly, efficient and busi-
ness-like. They spread sunshine and make shopping worthwhile.
They are part of the salt of the good Earth! May you always find
the latter at BOYLES, your home-town, home-owned, home-operated
store. We try to see you as a guest, an important individual as
well as a customer, a probable friend not just another num-
ber. In some of the stores we've visited, Ive felt like just another
number something like zero, zero, zero. We felt it would,
be just as well the management and assistants "go fishing".
S'long -RGB
PP.S.-Why not give BOYLES a test today? See for yourself
the new arrivals (daily). See merchandise of quality priced to fit
your budget! See the kind of reception and service you recieve.
Please let the management know when not satisfactory. Thank
you. ,

Fleas a r e like fair-weather
friends they congregate when
conditions are ideal. I
So, if some of your secand-rate
friends look a bit flea-bitten-lookI
for fleas. .
Or, if large numbers of fleas are
causing Fido to get behind with
his scratching, the answer is sim-
ple -- get another dog.
Adding a dog may be the answer
for those who oppose the use 6f
chemicals around their home. But
remember, fleas multiply faster
than dogs.
Getting rid of the dogs isn't the
answer. Most folks who get rid of
their pets complain the fleas be-
come numerous in the yard and
even invade the house.
With the pets gone, the fleas
find themselves ;with no domestic
animals on which to feed. There-
fore, they begin to aggravate the
homeowner.
Due to the long dry spell in
April, ticks are also showing up
in thle lawns-of some homes.
The same treatment will kill
both fleas and ticks. It's a triple ap-
proach of treating pets, inside the
house and lawn area.
A 5 percent malathion dust is
effective flea killer on pets. For an
indoor flea tick control, apply a
ready-prepared household spray
containing malathion or diazinon.
A sprayer, a paint' brush, or a
pump-type oil can is excellent for
applying inecticides to cracks in
the floors, around baseboards, and
in other dark, protected places.
Be sure to spray mats and furni-

For an outdoor attack on pests,
use a jar spray attachment on the

taining malathion, or diazinon will

As fleas like dry, sandy areas
for breeding, be sure to spray un-

ANTS
Even if you don't have ants in
your pantry, you'may have them
elsewhere including your plants.
Often these pests are on orna-
mentals guarding "slave" insects
that are making honey dew for
their captors.
Ants harbor eggs of scale in-
sects, mealybugs, whiteflies ,aphids
and leafhoppers in their nest dur-
ing the winter to be sure of a
spring and summer supply of
sweet excreta.
Ants also invade lawns. Beside
their painful sting, ants make un-
sightly hills that clutter up an
otherwise perfect lawn.,,
For outdoor control, James Brog-

TEMPERATURE SETTING: For economy set the thermostat at
the highest comfortable temperature,(usually about 781).
FAN SETTING: Operate the fan on "Auto" or "On" for your
individual comfort. "Auto" gives best summer humidity con-
trol and economical operation. "On" gives more uniform air
motion, sound level, and room to room temperature.
AWAY FROM HOME: Operate your air conditioning unit at
5 to 10 above normal setting with fan on "Auto" for mil-
dew protection and quick comfort when you return.
AIR CONDITIONING FILTERS: Replace filters frequently--
clogged filters' make unit work harder and cause higher
operating costs.
OUTDOOR SECTION: Keep clear of plants and other obstruc-
tions- anything that interferes with air flow makes unit
work harder.

WHAT YOU SHOULD KNOW
ABOUT YOUR PRESCRIPTION:


Unlike art old friend, you cannot rely upon an old prescrlp-
tion to do a thorough job... especially the same one for
which it was originally intended. Drugs lose their potency
over a number of years and some increase in strength
through evaporation. Not only. might a drug Prove-lndffec-
tive but It may be dangerous as well. Adverse storage condi-
tions could also affect the prescription. Chemical changes
can occur within the liquid, capsule or tablet. Then, too,
there is the constant danger of a child reaching for an old
, prescription. Thinking it's candy... or simply imitating you
...he might swallowthe contents.The results may betmagic.
Never depend upon a prescription lasting forever. Let your
doctor re-prescribe for your present condition...aftgr all
he is the expert And once you have regained your health,
alwaysdestroy the remainder of your prescription.

For the highest pharmaceutical standards, low prices
consistent with quality and thie personal attention you
can always depend upon, bring your prescriptions to

To Kiwanis Club
Municipal Judge M. P. Tomlinson
spoke to the Kiwanis Club Tues-
day telling the club of his philos-
ophy in handling the municipal
court.
Tomlinson said his court had
handled 157 cases during the past
seven months, the majority of
which were traffic cases.
Tomlinson said his docket is up
to date with only one case pend-
ing. "That case" he said, "involves
a person I told to leave town and
warned that his case was staying
open so he could be arrested im-
mediately if he ever comes back".
Tomlinson said he accepted the
position because be felt he might
have some effect on the safety of
the community. The Judge stated
that his goal is to see that "people
can travel without fear on any of
our streets at night".
Guests of the Club were Key

f considered. Chairman Walter
Graham stated that he would fa-
vor the request if money was
available provided the money be
used strictly for advertising.
Freeman said the Chamber
i would present the County with
an itemized account of how the
money would be spent.
Armstrong Unhappy
Vernell. Armstrong of Wewa-
hitchka was unhappy Tuesday'
night, claiming the County had-
n't lived up to its agreement to
provide certain benefits to him
for a drain ditch dug across his,
property.
Armstrong said.the ditch was
to be dug' so he could construct
a fish pond on his property, but
these specifications were not met.
He said C. E. Daniell, Mosquito
Control Supervisor had promised
. to build him a boat launching
site on :the ditch which runs in-
to a slough. Daniell hotly denied
he made such a promise.
Armstrong asked that a bridge
be put across the ditch which
cuts through his property so that
he may:go from one side to the
other without having ,to get out
'on the'highway. The Board went'
yesterday to look at the site and,%
come to a decision.
Requests for Pipe '
Several requests were present-
ed to the Board for concrete pipe
driveways throughout the coun-
I ty. Chairman Graham noted .that
the night's requests 'totaled more
pipe tha.the .County laid down
in a- six month period last year.
Wesley R. Ramsey, speaking as
a tax-payer, asked the Board to
adopt a .pblicy of charging the
market value of' concrete pipe
placed. for drives, etc.
Engineer Max W. Kilbourn
said the County might adopt a
policy of charging for requests
for pipe in existing ditches and
giving pipe when a ditch is dug.
