ed that all traffic be cleared

ment from the Shriners

go-carts in the parade. Also
an army tank will rumble
down Reid Avenue as a part
of the parade entourage.
Ray said many other in-

a new spirit of patriotism, and make all who come, to have
Great pride in this nation and hope for the future, faith in our

our tomorrows, and trust in our ability to protect ourselves
and to grow into a more fruitful life.
In addit ion to the many pieces of military equipment that
will participate in the two giant parades, there will be several
fixed displays by the U. S. Marines, the U. S. Army, the U.S.
Air Force, the U. S. Coast Guard and the U. S. Navy. All of
the military services are really going all out to put on a big


show. In addition to several military bands and honor
guards, the U. S. Marines will feature their world famous 50
State Flag Pageant.
The two parades will feature in addition to the many
military entries and the national and state VIP's, many
beauty queens, Shrine units, beautiful floats, antique cars
and many more interesting and worthwhile exhibits.
The patriotic theme for the nine day Gulf County
Golden Anniversary Celebration is sponsored by the Willis V.
Rowan Post 116 American Legion.
So come one and all.. see it all, hear it all, do it all,
enjoy it all.
Two parades will be staged, one in the north end and one
in the southern end, including six units of Shriners, digni-.
taries, five military bands and.numerous local floats.

Board member at the begin-
-niog of their regular meeting
Tuesday afternoon
'Superintendent of Schools
David Bidwell presented
plaques of appreciation to.
retiring teachers Sara Fite
Sand' Daisy Johnson and to
.,former 'Aoard Member Bill
'Roemer for their years of
service to the school system
and students.
Things got sticky a little
later on in the meeting, as
Superintendent Bidwell came
up with a recommendation to
reduce the staffs at Port St.
Joe High School and Port St.
Joe Elementary School next
year. Bidwell recommended
the high school staff be reduc-
ed by three people and the
elementary staff by two.
"There was a slight reduction
in pupils this. year. at these
schools and we project a
further reduction next year",
Bidwell said as the basis for
his suggestion.
The lone dissenter in the
move, which would leave the
staffs at Highland View ind
Wewahitchka as they are at
present, wasBoard members
Gene Raffield. Raffield cast
the only "nay" vote to the
suggestion after noting that
Wewahitchka had a ratio of 14
pupils per instructor while
Port St. Joe had 17, "If there's
any fat in personnel, it's in
Wewahitchka", Raffield said.
The personnel affected by the
proposed cut are instructional
and supervisory people.
Bidwell recommended an-
additional one or two person-
nel for Wewahitchka.
The matter will gain further
exposure when the Board gets
around to deciding which
members of:the staff are to be
cut.

viewed three architects Tues-

ing the services for design of a

The Mlayor put the strongest
emphasis on the need for the
Commission to pursue devel-
opment of the Port here. "We
need to get the Port Authority
on the ball and acquire pro-
perty, construct warehouse
facilities and utilize our fine
harbor. This is one of the
biggest sources of wages in
our City and needs further
development".
Also on his list of priorities,
the Mayor called for estab-
lishment of a perpetual care
cemetery in addition to the
regular cemeteries already in
operation; obtain land and
build an adequate shop and
warehouse for City vehicles
and materials; completion of
the Wastewater Treatment
plant and get the facility
running smoothly; enlarging
the water treatment facilities
and additional water supply
obtained.
DEVELOPMENT
The new Commission was
faced with an important de-
cision right at the start of their
new year of duty.
At the request of Ray Os-
borne, representing Ben Dic-
kens, president of St. Joseph
Bay Estates, Inc., a request
was made to make the sale of
water and sewer services
available to the real estate
development which is getting
underway just South of the
City.
In a written request to the
Board, the developers asked if
the services would be avail-
able to the subdivision at the
expense of the developers.
They made a request .for
services for 150 dwelling units
by the end of 1976, 350 at, the
end of 1977 and on up to 2,000
by the end of 1980.
The subdivision is in the
vicinity of the St. Joseph Bay
Country Club.

SThis month Gulf County reaches
its 50th anniversary as'a county and
.the people here in the county are
going to mark the occasion with
I:gusto as they celebrate for a full nine
c days. There are several people still
-around who remember every day of
that 50 years and of the events which
sp~vned the county off Calhoun
;back in 1925.
'' Being 50 years of age has
Different meanings for different
people. A couple who has been

reaching his 50th birthday is an old

himself and just reaching maturity

What udder nonsense!
We read in the papers where a
company in Wisconsin is making a
pile of money selling bras for milk
cows. The president of the company
explains that a large cow udder can
weigh up to 80 pounds, and, is
supported only by skin and a few
ligaments:
The reason for the bra is that the
cow may damage its udder by
stepping on it. Too, an uncovered
udder gets cold and hard, making it
uncomfortable for the cow.
Bras for cows had to be invented
just at the time when female homo

Other Editors Are Saying:


One of the sorriest chapters
in the history of our system
of justice was written this
week when our elected offi-
cials in Tallahassee allowed
Supreme Court Justice David
McCain to resign his office
effective August 31, 1975
rather than face an almost
certain vote of impeachment
by the House of Representa-
-ives.
I cannot for the life of me
see how we can allow a man
, who is under such an enor-
S-mous cloud of suspicion sit on
our highest court for four
Aiore months and pass judg-
ment on his fellow citizens.
Everything that he.does will
-be tainted and subject to sus-
picion.


SThe only way in the world
to handle a case like this 'is to
allow the Constitution to work
in the prescribed manner. If
the House thinks he is guilty,
, then articles of impeachment
should be voted and he should
be suspended from office
until he can be tried in the
Senate.
Our legislators and others
claim a Senate trial would
cost $200,000, and the way
those fellows operate I don't
doubt that it would. That cost
has to be weighed against the
cost of paying McCain, to sit
on the Suggerie Cdiirt for an
additional ':outil--months and
the cost of not knowing for
sure whether he is guilty or
not.


We have a right to know
whether he is guilty or inno-
cent and a Senate trial is the
only way to find out. This
business of "plea bargain-
ing" with an elected public
official is a good way for
them to get off the hook
without having to face the
indignation of impeachment.

If a person can't find anything to do for the
next nine days, he is just not looking or just plain
hard to please.
With Gulf County's Golden Anniversary
celebration starting tomorrow, Gulf County
citizens and guests will have a full agenda of
entertainment such as softball tournaments,
displays of antique cars, arts, crafts, patriotic
exhibits, agriculture, industry, seafood and old
homes, fishing rodeos, golf tournament, helicop-
ter display, motorcycle and boat races, youth
baseball tournament,water skiing contest, a
grande ball to wind up events and speaking by
dignitaries. Sunday afternoon, a religious rally
will be held in the High School Commons area.
There is something for everyone.
According to the agenda, there will be visits
and addresses by Senators Lawton Chiles and
Richard (Dick) Stone, Rep. Bob Sikes, State
Comptroller Gerald Lewis, Senators Pat Thomas
and Dempsey Barron, former Senate President
Mallory Horne and Representatives Earl utto
and WayneMixon '
All of this is the result of two years planning
by a committee of citizens, considerable expense
on the part of Gulf County government, industry
and merchants and the efforts of Jesse Stone who
has lost about 30 pounds in seeing the whole thing
coordinated and set up properly. I've said it
before and I'll say it again,, Jesse has done a job
nobody else in the county would take the time to
do in planning this event.and he is due a vote of
thanks from the entire county. He probably
won't get much more out of it, but he surely
deserves that vote' of thanks.
I. hope you participate in as many of the
events as you possibly can and take advantage of
what many people have worked long and hard to
prepare for our enjoyment. Since most of our
industry happens to be "on vacation" this week,
you should have plenty of time to take in most of
the happenings.

It's 'too bad nobody thought of holding a
"hollering" contest as one of the Anniversary
Celebration events.
I sawin the paper last week where a man in
Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania took the championship
for being able to holler the loudest. The ladies
were right in there, pitching, and a lady from
Philadelphia took the honors for being able to
holler, the longest.
I think we have a few here in Gulf County
who could probably qualify for this contest, had
we only known it was going to be held. Bob Ellzey
or Bo Bouington could certainly hold their own in
such a competition. There are others who would

The old fireplace could have

difference do either riches or

What difference did the

wealth make when it was new,

If the fireplace could have a
common denominator, it

the warm hearts of the people

the sunken hearth of the fire-

of long ago.
The simple wood mantel had
a pretty, hand-crocheted
cover. In the center was a
clock that only father was

yard marker chain said, "Mrs. Sanborn is here
isn't she?" I remarked that I didn't know since I
hadn't seen her. I allowed as how she probably
was, though, since she usually supported the
kids' activities. The young man then said, "I've
never met her, but I recognize her voice from
hearing her shut atthe Little League games
when I was playing a few years ago". This isn't
to say Mrs. Sanborn could actively participate in
a hollering contest, but that young man "recog-
nized her voice" above the roar of a football
crowd.
As I say, we have all kinds of talent here in
Port St. Joe. There is usually an expert in most
any field if you want to hunt him or her out. That
goes for entrants in "hollering contests", too.

I saw in the paper where Ed Ball was
released from the hospital after having a
cataract removed and a lens implant performed
on his right eye. I knew those dime store glasses
were going to ruin his eyes sooner or later.

As the Legislature wound down last week
with its law-making activities, it was learned
the compulsory age for attending school would
be lowered to 14 from the former 16, if Governor
Reubin Askew allowed it to become law.
If the compulsory attendance law isn't
enforced anywhere in the state any, more than it
is irGulf County, they could just1-ei*fv: thie-law
from the books entirely and make room for
another one.


My wife is a fine cook and I'm a living
advertisement to the tastiness of her dishes.
Sometimes, however, she goofs.
Sunday at dinner, I sat down to the meal and
was served a bowl of what she called seafood
gumbo. She had made the gumbo with an extra
generous portion of crab meat and shrimp. Then,
to give it a more tomatoe-y appearance, she put
a dash of red food coloring into the pot.
Presto! We had pink seafood gumbo, about
the color of pink lemonade. It didn't look good at
all.
Frenchie put the evil eye on me and said, *
"You've got to eat it; there's $10.00 worth of
shrimp and crab in that pot."
After the spoon passed out of sight on its way
into the mouth the stuff was good.



Funeral Services Held

for Troy M. Price, 39


Funeral services for Troy
Mollison Price, 39, of 514
Fourth Street, were held Sun-
day afternoon at three p.m. in
the First Baptist Church of
Port St. Joe. Burial was in the
family plot in Holly Hill
Cemetery.
Mr. Price was a native of

Northern Railroad, and a
member of the First Baptist
Church.

hanging stockings at Christ-
mas to receive an apple.
Above the clock on the
mantel was a faded but hum-
ble plea which read, "Bless
Our Home."
The home was blessed with
simplicity. Perhaps simplicity
could be the only true factor
within most all goodness and
beauty:
Some families before retir-
ing for the night would get
down on their knees and with
heads resting in the chairs
would give thanks for the
priviledge of being alive in the
warmth of the fireplace.
This noble fixture, now erod-
ing away forever in a lonely
briar patch, was once sur-
rounded by the wonders and
loves of beautiful people like
you.


Survivors include his wife,
Mrs. Betty K. Price; three
children, Troy Stacy Price,,
Karl Stanford Price and Deb-
ra Ann Price, all of Port St.
Joe; his mother, Mrs. Pearl-
Griffis of Darien, Ga.; and six
sisters, Mrs. Lila Pruitt and
Mrs. Florence Rowe, both of
Darien, Ga.; Mrs. Minnie
Hearn and Mrs. Dorthy Cain
of Hinesville, Ga., Mrs. Ferris
Brodgon of Jacksonville, and
Mrs. Elvie Jackson of Savan-
nah, Ga.
St. Clair Funeral Home of
Port St. Joe was in charge of
all arrangements.

April 7, 1903 was issued with

One often hears of families
being separated and long-lost
relatives eventually finding
one another again. This was
the case recently when Mrs.
David (Myrna) Fernandez-
left, and her sister, Brenda
Weech of Orlando were re-
united with their father, Jos-
eph E. Thompson, whom they
had not seen in 28 years.
The sisters last saw their


father in 1947 in Jacksonville
when Brenda was four and
Myrna, Two.

After having traced their
father to somewhere in the
vicinity of Little Rock, Arkan-
sas, they began phoning every
Joseph or foe Thompson listed
in the phone book, a formida-
ble task in a city the size of
Little Rock.


With the aid of a local tele-
phone operator (and a lot of
prayer through the years),
Mrs. Fernandez reached her
father on May 13. The opera-
tor hooked up a three-way
patch with Mrs. Fernandez in
Port St. Joe, Mrs. Weech "in
Orlando and Mr. Thompson in
Little Rock.
Mr. Thompson arrived in


Port St. Joe on May 27 and was
reunited with his children. He
stated, "This moment has
made me the happiest man in
the world.". His family has in-
deed grown considerably; for
though heremarried, Myrna
and Brenda were his only
children. Now he not only has
two daughters, but also seven
grandchildren.

was replaced by 17,353 feet of
mostly steam pressured, creo-

Today, the principle inbound
commodity is pulpwood, to'
supply the huge St. Joe Paper
Company. This traffic alone
may run as high as 80 carloads

arrive in January, 1973. The

Post Office


Opened In 1906


was dismantled in 1965. In
November of 1920 the post
office as moved to the Masonic
Hall building on North Reid
Avenue. The post office once
again moved before its pre-
sent location on Highway 98.
Much correspondence is
contained in the early files of
the Apalachicola Northern
Railroad relating to the esta-
blishment of the post office in
Port St: Joe and to the esta-
blishment of regular mail
service.
One interesting letter dated
October 12. 1910, from R. B.
Coleman, General Manager of
the railroad to S. H. McPhaul
and B. H. Graves, conductors,
instructed them to refrain
from handling any U. S. Mail
on the train out of Port St. Joe
except that delivered in the
mail sack by Postmaster
Stone. This step was taken to
force cancellation through the
post office in order that suffi-
cient cancellations would jus-
tify a regular daily post office
, and regular mail service to
Port St. Joe must be given
primarily to the Apalachicola
Northern Railroad.


A small post office was esta-
blished, about one mile south-
east of the present business
district of Port St. Joe on May
18. 1906. Port St. Joe had not
been named and the post
-office was called Indian Pass.
Henry D. Collins was the first
postmaster of the Indian Pass
: office.
Fourteen months later on
July 25. 1907. T. H. Stone was
appointed postmaster and
served until March 16. 1917,
thus Mr. Stone was the second
postmaster of Indian Pass and
the first postmaster of Port St.
Joe.
Many years later Mr. Stone
stated that the Indian Pass
post office had no regular mail
delivery and that he trans-
ported the mail to and from
Apalachicola twice monthly
via horse and buggy. The first
train came to Apalachicola on
April 30, 1907. In the fall of 1909
the railroad was extended to
Port St. Joe. This was a mile-
stone in the postal service of
Port St. Joe as the train as-
sured the residents of a'regu-
lar mail service.
In 1910. the people who re-
ceived their mail at Indian
Pass post office petitioned the
postal department to abolish
that office and establish a post
office in Port St. Joe. Later in
1910, Mr. Stone moved her
mercantile business to the
present Reid Avenue which
was only a short distance from
the Apalachicola Northern de-
pot. With Mr. Stone's business,
move. the post office was also
moved. The first name sub-
mitted for the post office was
St. Joseph due to its historical
significance. The second
choice was St. Joe. Both of
these names were rejected by
the postal authorities in Wash-
ington due to an already exist-
ing post office in Pasco County

Cobblers have decked American tables almost as long as this
country has been on the map. Easy Orchard Cobbler resembles a
deep dish pie with a biscuit topping instead of crust.
By combining cherry pie filling with peaches in syrup, the con-
tents need no additional sugar an important consideration with
Today's inflated prices. Orange drop biscuits dot the cobbler pro-
viding contrast in both flavor and texture.
quick to prepare. Easy Orchard Cobbler is a welcome finale at
Sany meal. With.self-rising flour there's less fuss. Salt and leavening
are already added, so you can whip up biscuits in a jiffy.
Deserving of praise, too, is the fact that three essential B-vitamins
niacin, thiamine and riboflavin and two important minerals,
calcium and iron, are in all products made from enriched self-
rising flour.

Combine pie filling, peaches, 1 cup peach juice and almonds in
a 2-quart baking dish. Bake in preheated 425' oven until fruit
mixture bubbles vigorously, about 35 minutes. Drop Orange Cob-

425* oven and bake 20 minutes more, or until cobbler is done.
Orange Cobbler Topping:

Stir together flour and orange rind. Cut in shortening until

How Gulf County Got Its Name


Let's Name It "Gulf!"


Excerpt from Gulf County History-Program
Gulf County, with its cattle and 'its bee
apiaries a veritable "land of milk and
honey", was created out of Calhoun County,
June 6, 1925, which in turn had been carved
out of Franklin County.
According to Dr. Mode L. Stone, long
associated with Florida State University in
Tallahassee, Gulf County, located in the Pan-
handle of the Northwest Florida, is a county
which has had at least three names and seven
county seats.
When Gulf was a part of Franklin County,
Apalachicola was the county seat. In 1836 or
1837, 'Peter Gautier, Jr., a member of the
Legislative Council of the Territory of
Florida, proposed that the county seat be
moved from Apalachicola to St. Joseph.
Approved by this body, the move was denied
by Congress and it was not until 1838 when
Calhoun was created that St. Joseph became
the county seat.
Withthe decease of St. Joseph the county
seat was moved to Abe Springs. Later it was
moved to River Landing near Blountstown
and still later to Blountstown proper. The
creation of Gulf County necessitated another
move, and Wewahitchka was the selection.


Forty years later it was moved to its present
location in Port St. Joe.
Gulf County was the 66th to be created
(just six months prior to Gilchrist), and it was
named for the Gulf of Mexico,'on which the
county borders on the south. The name
"Satsuma" had been proposed and the vote
was actually being taken when T. H. Stone
suddenly jumped to his feet with a "Hey!
Wait a minute! You know and I know that a
freeze could come and destroy every one of
those satsumas, but that Gulf will never run
dry. Let's name it "Gulf"! "Gulf" it
was-and "Gulf" it is!
In 1925 the Honorable Theo D. Levins,
Representative from Calhoun County and the
Honorable W. Riley McDaniel, Senator, intro-
duced the same bill in the House and in the
Senate, and on June 6, 1925, 369,920 acres of
Calhoun County became Gulf County-a
happy occasion for the people of this area.
For quite a while there had been a move
to divide Calhoun County, mainly because of
the distance to the county seat in Blounts-
town, and the difficulty of receiving.recogni-
tion for this area. Among those promoting the
project were B. W. Eels, George Patton, A. M.
Jones, Henry Drake, Joe Hunter, Dave


Gaskin, Judge Chafin, James A. Kelley,
Charles Morgan, and Ed Pridgeon, but there
was no one who desired this move more, or
was in a better position to realize the need
than T. H. Stone. As Commissioner of Calhoun'
for a number of years, he had made those long
treks by horse and buggy to Blountstown
month after month, and so excited was he
when the deed was finally done that he went
that same day to a photographer and'had his
picture made.
The first officers of Gulf County were as
follows: County Judge, E. Clay Lewis, Jr.;
Sheriff, W. J. McDaniel, followed by J. E.
Pridgeon; Clerk of Circuit Court, J. R.
Hunter; Tax Assessor, G. W. Hinsey, followed
by S. L. Stone; Tax Collector, Theo D.
Levins; Superintendent of public Instruction,
B. W. Spear; Supervisor of Registration, J. A.
Whitfield. The first County Commissioners
included: J. J. McDaniel, Chairman; H. E.
Rish; S. F. VanHorn; A. D. Lawson and G. A.
Patton. E. Clay Lewis, the first Judge, served
in this capacity for a year. He then resigned
and was elected the first Representative. B.
W. Eells was Representative and J. L. Sharit
Senator at the time of the Centennial Cele-
bration of Old St. Joseph in 1938.


The Wewahitchka Court House, still a
handsome building in 1975, was built in 1926
and dedicated in 1927, the home of the
county's business until the county seat was
re-located in Port St. Joe.
It is interesting that while this building was
being constructed the county business was
carried on in the homes of the new officers,
especially that. of the Clerk of the Circuit
Court, J. L. Hunter, and that after comple-
tion, it was used as a "play-house" by some of
the children of.the county officers, especially
the children of Tax -Collector Theo Levins,
who had recently lost his wife. His daughter,
Millie, even tells of hiding under the desk of
the Judge (and with his knowledge) while
court was in session. It is also interesting to
note that the chairman of county commis-
sioners, J. G. McDaniel, at the time of.the
dedication of the new courthouse, is the
grandson of the earliest chairman, J. J.
McDaniel.
The new courthouse in Port St. Joe, a
.large modern building, is elaborate in every
detail. It was dedicated on February 23, 1968,
and in this spacious setting, the work of the
county goes forward.


As a result of damage sus-
tained from flooding on or
about april 11, 1975, in the
State of Florida,, the Small
Business Administration de-
clared on May 23, Gulf County
and adjacent affected areas,
as disaster areas, making
Disaster Loan Assistance
available. Loans are available
to individuals and businesses
for the repair, or replacement,
of property damaged or des-
troyed less insurance pro-
ceeds, if any, at the current
disaster interest rate of five
(5) per cent per annum.
Homeowners and business-
es can apply for loans to
repair or replace damage as a
result of the flooding to their
homes or business property as
well as their personal proper-
ty such as furniture, 'appli-
ances, fixtures, etc. Indivi-
duals and businesses who are


renting their homes or places
of businesses are eligible for
loans to repair or replace
personal property, etc., owned
by them and damaged or
destoryed as a result of the
flooding.
Small business owners who
suffered economic injury as a
result of the flooding may also
be'eligible for working capital
loans to meet obligations
which could have been met
had the disaster not occurred.
Information and applica-
tions can be obtained at Small
Business Administration's
District office, 400 West Bay
Street, Jacksonville, tele-
phone number 904-791-2911.
The closing date for accept-
ing physical loss applications
is July 28, 1975. The closing
date for accepting Economic
Injury Disaster Loan Applica-
tions is February 23, 1976;

[ ,In Scrimmage


Port St. Joe Sharks hung
up their cleats for the season
last Friday night, following
their annual spring scrim-
.mage game between the sen-
iors and next year's varsity
team.
The scrimmage spells the
eid of spring practice sessions
fbr the squad and tests' the
players moving up into the
starting ranks for the coming
season.
. In Friday night's game, the
seniors just barely defeated
their replacements, 14-12 after
taking a 14 point lead in the
first period.
The photos show some of the
action in the scrimmage con-
test. In the top photo, the
seniors, in white, move

A new bride can call, write
or visit any social security
office to get her name changed
on her record. "Or she can use
a form available at any post
office and many employer
personnel offices," Robinson
said.
People who change their
name because of divorce or
for business or other reasons
should also notify social secur-
ity, Robinson noted.
The Panama City social
security office is located at
1316 Harrison Avenue. The
phone number is 769-4871.
