It's 'really ignore than a body should be ex- pected to bear. Earlier this month, Alford and Laura pre- sented us with a grandson. Laura had to go to the hospital one morning with "terrible gas pains" which she had suffered from during the night. An hourly later, she had a baby boy in her arms and the "gas pains" were gone. Early Friday morning, Willie and Shirley had another grandson, making our grand total five grandsons and' zero'granddaughters. Shirley is the one who sets most of the type for your newspaper on our computer typesetter so we told her, she would have to have the baby on Thursday and be ready to set type again on Monday if she was to consider herself a true- blue 'newspaper woman. Shirley did her best. She waited for a holi- day to come along Labor Day so she would have an exta day in which to have her baby. Something tells me she won't back to work- Tuesday. Regardess, though, the paper must go out come floodt snow, hail, babies being born or no newsprint. " No do bt you have read of the newsprint shortage aidk seen it on TV. Let me tell you now, this shortage is real. We're lucky, in a way, here at The Star. We purchased a, truck-load of newsprint just last month before the shortage got real critical and. now have enough paper to print The Star on until about March or April of next year.. If the shortage isnt a little easier then, we just might have to fall aack and punt. We're lucky because we had the new Bay County Tim% wanting us to print their twice a week paper and we printed the first issue.

'THURSDAY, SEPT. 6, 1973 PAGE FIVE Bidwell Spells Out Changes Gulf County Superintendent of Schools David Bidwell told 'the Rotary Club last Thurs- day there are many changes in the operation of the schools. beginning with the current, term. State money is received 'on the basis;'of enrollment now. as opposed to the old method of average daily attendance. "Formerly, when a child was absent due to illness or other causes, it, cost us $3.00 per day per child in state funds", tne- -speaker said. "Now, we get funds on the basis, of enrollment, but we must drop a child& f164t6i'e rolls aftersh eo has been absent for six days in succession." Another 'change is the duration-of the school day. Students must be in school for a -minimum of 300 minutes of classroom time per day. "'This causes some to get out earlier than in the past and some to stay at, school longer," Bidwell said. Another, change is the organizational structure on the principal level. Bidwell said duties have been .divided up on the administrative level, with County Supervisor William Linton Director of Instruction and Mrs. Laura Geddie Director of Adminis- tration. Locally, Ken Her- ring, last year's high school principal, is the Supervisor of Principals and has as his Duties seeing that all instruc- tion is done on a professional and effective manner. Under him is Howard Blick, Princi-, pal of Highland View Ele- mentary School; Harry Her- rington. Principal of Port St. Joe Elementary School with Allen Scott as his assistant; Edwin Williams, Principal of Port St. Joe High School with Temple Watson as assistant. "The school system is .beginning a program of preparing students to earn a living when they leave the classroom, Bidwell said, with more emphasis being put on 'learning to read and spell as well as provide a solid base of mathematics. "We want to get our elementary school accredited also," the Superin- .. ,. .. ,: ,: .. 1 , ,, ,. ,.- ,., , iO tO f . -. . Jennifer Dyer Prepares Stove from Old tendent said. This will assure parents their children are receiving the basics they need before entering high school. "In the past, every teacher taught their bwn ) Exhibit St. Joseph preference in reading and spelling methods, but no more," Bidwell said. "The school will set.ip a program to be followed which we believe will benmore effective in teaching children the basics in reading, writing and mathematics'"`;he said. In pointing out several areas of concern, Bidwell told the Rotarians, it, was costing Gulf County .6354 per mile to transport kids in the County. "This is too much," Bidwell said, "and we're going to find out why we are :spending so much." He also pointed to the fact that 42 percent of the students eating the cafeterias in the county were receiving free lunches which is causing financial difficulties in this area. Bidwell said he and the Board is ashamed of the appearance of the Port St. Joe High School campus and they are starting a program this year of beautifying the area. Guest of the' Club was Dr. Richard Morley of Panama City Read the Classifieds Constitution Museum here in Port St. Joe has recently undergone a refurbishing by Ms. Elizabeth Ehrbar, Exhi- bits Supervisor of the De- partment of Natural Re- sources of Tallahassee, giv- ing the local tourist attrac- tion more displays pertaining to the life and times of Old St. Joseph. Ms. Ehrbar and her assist- ants, Jennifer Dyer, Jim Lottinville and Greg Faw- brish, have changed the. entrance to the Museum building and built several new displays for the public to view. The new displays show several "articles used by the people 6f Old St. Joseph in their every day living and work. The exhibits include dishes, tools, implements, stoves and Spanish artifacts found in the Port St. Joe area.. One of the new exhibit cases shows earthernware imported and sold in Old St. Joseph. The earthernware 'dates back to 1800 and was found at Depot Creek where a wharf and warehouse once stood. Another new display fea- tures Spanish artifacts from the first Spanish site of around 1701-1704. These arti- facts. were donated by the Gulf County Historical Com- mission. Household goods of Old St. Joseph, dating back to the 1835-1845 era are displayed in another new exhibit. The earthernware was also found at Depot Creek and several pieces donated by the people of Port St. Joe. Ms. Ehrbar said this was only the beginning of a .program to renovate the Museum and its displays. She said the program will be completed in 1974. The Museum is under the direction of Dick Boyer, Mu- seum Guide and Park Ranger Jim Hagans. Library ^fk-B w:w- --- -"..

Help Pleads To The Florida Highway Pa- trol today pleaded with motorists to "help Florida's school children complete their education" by protect- ing them from traffic acci- dents as they return to classes when schools open throughout the state. Colonel Eldrige Beach, Patrol director said, "Dri- vers are reminded to be alert for the .increase of pedestri- an, bicycle, motorcycle and automobile traffic congestion before and after school hours. Watch for school zone signs and obey the speed limit strictly." Patrol accident records, show that during the first half of 1973, there, were 64 pedestrians between the ages of 5-19 killed on Florida's highways. Motorists were cautioned to be especially alert and to reduce speed for groups of children waiting for school buses and for busy areas surrounding schools.

The Mosquito Control Su- pervisor suggested the Board Safe Boating No Accident Florida Department of Natural Resources 2nd in a series Glad you could join once again for this week's series. Re- member back when you were responsible for your first car? If you do, you'll recall that your first concern might well have been the legal requirements. That is, the registration cer- tificate, license plates, and possible inspection for all safety equipment. With boats it is very nearly the same thing. Your first concern should be the legal requirements, for they are both federal and state requirements that must be met before you can legally operate your boat. The state requirements will vary from state to state and we will attempt to cover both state and federal requirements. for Florida. Many of the things that we must do, the types, and the amount of equipment we must carry on our boats are deter- mined by one simple factor, the class of our boat. The class is request permission from St. Joe Paper Company to remove grass from the fresh water canal as the grass breeds dog flys. The Attorney agreed, to seek permission from St. Joe Paper Company. determined by the overall length. The length is deter-, mined by measuring from the extended portion of the bow, to the stern. The motor is not in- cluded in the measurements. If a boat is less than 16 feet it is said to be a class A boat. If the overall length of a boat is between 16 feet but less than 26 feet, it is a class 1-boat, on sail boats, the bowsprit and the at- tachment on the stern is not included in the overall measurements. If the overall measurement of a boat is from 26 feet, but less than 40 feet it is a class 2-boat. If the overall length of a boat is from 40 feet to 65 feet, it is a class 3-boat. It is suggested that you remember the different class boats and their lengths, for as this series continues it will be very helpful, as each requirement is differ- ent for each class boat. continued next week The Clerk reported the bank balances as of July 3f1- 1973. The bills were presented,: examined and ordered paid. A. L. Davis, Chmn. George Y. Core, Clerk, FIRST BAPTIST CHURCH Corner Third Street and Baltzell Avenue REV. DeWITT T.
