Bar Hours Extension


Being Left Up to Peop


If the people of Port St. Joe
have longer bar hours; they
will have to vote for it in the
next Municipal election.
This was the final decision
of the City Commission last
Tuesday in taking action on a'
request for an extra hour of.
open time at night, made by
bar room operators in the
City.
The Commission had put
off their decision for two
weeks in order to hear any'
objections, but all members


of the Board said they had
been presented with very
little opposition to the 1:00
a.m. closing time. Nobody
was present at the meeting to
protest the request.
Commissioner George
Wimberly sized the situation
up by saying, "The big
.objection will come after we
give approval to this thing."
Commissioner Benny Rob-
erts was fearful that allowing
the extension of hours would
"Bring on some other re-


quests.'
Mayor Frank Pate

Gulf County did, its part by
not adding to the estimated

It's Week

... to Mail
Postmaster Chauncey
Costin announced this week
that December 3-8 will be
"Christmas Mail Early
I Week" in Port St. Joe. The
Sfuel energy crisis is a cause
of great concern to the Postal
Service as it affects the
timely movement of Christ-
.. mas mail. The curtailment in
the numfiber of air flights as
well as the 50-mile-an-hour
speed limit for vehicles
makes Mail Early We&k
more important this year
than ever before according to
Costin.
"We are handling more
mail this Christmas than in
any previous year", the
Postmaster said. "In order to
get this mail to its destination
by December 25, we need you
your cooperation in mailing
early."

Sharks Open Basketball Season



Inexperienced, Tall and Quick


It will be a tall, strong,
quick but largely untried
basketball team which will
open the season for Port St.
Joe High School in Panama
City Saturday night.
The Sharks meet the
always tough Rutherford
Rams on the Rams home
court.
Coach Bill Dickson said he
is without a veteran starter
on' this year's team. "We
don't even have the number
one substitution on the
team", Dickson stated. As a
matter of fact, only three of
this year's squad traveled
with the varsity team last
year.
Of the 14-man roster only
Martin Adkison, Eddy Rich
and Robert Dickens played
with last year's Sharks.
Dickson said "We have the
height and we can be as good
as the boys want to be".
Dickson isn't given to speak-
ing idly and he wasn't this


time either. The Sharks nave
eight of their squad measur-
ing in at six feet or over. "All
of the smaller boys are
extremely quick", Dickson
said.
In addition to the three
returning from last year's
squad, the Sharks have Jerry
Brown and Ricky Hamm,
Seniors, up from the Junior
Varsity of two years ago.
Neither played last year.
Senior Steve Davis and
Junior Mike Daniels are out
for the first time. The squad
is rounded out with Ernest
Pittman, Willie Quinn, Danny
Thomas, Mike Scott, Mike
Todd, John Shackleford and
Smiley Shackleford moving
up from last year's Junior
Varsity.
Games coming up for the
week include:
December 1, Rutherford,
away.
Dec. 4, Wewahitchka at
home.


Jones Found Guilty

of 3rd Degree Murder


Willie E. Jones of Port St.
Joe was found guilty of
third degree murder last
week in Circuit Court in the
May 19 shooting of James
Williams, also of Port St. Joe.
Williams was shot in front
of Georgia Boy's Cafe on
Main Street following an
argument between Williams
and Jones.
The jury received the case
Tuesday afternoon last week
and deliberated up into the
night before rendering the
third degree verdict.
A pre-sentence investiga-
tion is currently being
conducted before sentence is
pronounced.
PLEAD GUILTY
Byron Welch entered a plea
of guilty to his charge of


Breaking and Entering of
Campbell's Drug Store. He
was sentenced to six months
to two years in jail.
Leonard H. Slater, also
involved in the case was
given 60 days in the county
jail for trespassing.
Slater testified that he was
outside the store and was
called in by Welch. Slater
said he came in and sat down
and went to sleep. He was
under the influence of drugs
at the time.
A charge of possession of
drugs against Michael David
Segers, was postponed for
trial until a later date.
A charge of aggravated
battery against Sammy Por-
ter, Jr., of Wewahitchka was
dismissed.

Armageddon


Politicians, military strate-
gists and economists all over the
world have their eyes glued on the
Mideast today.
They watch the battles; the
cease fires and, the truces for
answers to many questions.
Will they lead to peace? Will
the Jewish nation survive? Will it
expand? Will the surrounding
nations combine to wipe it out
entirely? Will Russia take an
aggressive stand? What will result
from the United States role?
To find these answers those
familiar with the Scriptures are
-showing renewed interest in
various prophecies in the Old
Testament which are interpreted as
foretelling the world shaking events
occurring in Palestine and Jerusa-
lem.
AiAong the ancients Wh' spole
and wrote about the great and final
war of Armageddon waged against
SIsrael, after it had established
itself on the land of its origin, are
Joel, Ezekial, Isaiah, Jeremiah and
John in Revelations.,
Looking through these books in
the Old Testament one can find
several prophecies pertaining to the
return of the Jewish race to the
land of its origin--its growth and
the subsequent attack by the
surrounding nations. The cause of
the wa" is blamed on Israel's
economic struggle to survive and
protect the wealth that has poured

Y.
Has Salt In His Blood



"Killfer K's" Kuties


When I retired a year os so
back I jumped from shipping
cler to seine fishing in Carra-
belle on the beach at
Pickett's fishery. I got along
fine till one day they left me
all by myself at noon time.
A pretty good run of mullet
was moving down the beach
to the west'ard so I jumped
in the skiff and jobbed an oar
in the bottom and turned the
fish back. When mullet
decide to move they are
going to do just that and after
I'd turned them two or
three times they went on by.
I drug in the anchor and
cranked up the kicker and
went out around them. By
running back and forth in
front of them I managed to
slow them down. Then I saw.,
the skipper on the beach and:
run in and picked him up. He


took over then and went on
down a piece then ashore. I
got out and took one end of
the seine on the beach and
sat down on it and when the
bunch of fish got just right he
gunned the motor and took
them in.
About that time one man
showed up to help the skipper
and an old Yankee tourist
helped me and we worked the
seine on in and dumped nine
thousand pounds of mullet in
the boat.
During all the excitement I
was bare headed and bare
footed and had no shirt on
and burned to a `crisp. The
doctor in Carrabelle said I
had too much salt 'in my
blood so I came back to St.
Joe to get it out. My doctor
sent me to the hospital and
that's where I met Big John.


I've heard tell of enemas
all my life, but it took him to
show me. He had a garden
hose with, a half inch nipple
six inches long on the end of
it and when he opened the
valve and turned on the
pressure he really meant
business, frgot seven of them
that night and the next
morning,4 A-young doctor just
out of the navy put me under
a fluoroscope and made me
turn my body as I was
getting- the last one. We
cussed each other out but
parted friends.
Next time I saw John he
was in"' the floor cleaning
business. If he -can clean
floors like he cleaned me
believe I'll hire him to fix our
kitchen tile.
Au revoir but not good bye

Kohoutek's Visit


It is not too early to start
sounding warnings that the event of
the "greatest show on earth" to be
coming soon, will bring with it
certain serious' dangers. We speak
. of the forthcoming spectacular
"Comet Kohoutek," due to appear
to the naked eye around December
first, and to remain visible until the
end of January. The new comet,
which has already "arrived" for
those who have access to tele-
scopes, will be the most dramatic
heavenly display since the famous
Halley's comet, which last ap-
peared for earth people in 1910.

Comet Kohoutek became first
known to us last March when Dr.
Lubos Kohoutek, a Czechoslovakian
astronomer working at the Ham-
burg Observatory in West Ger-
many, found a bright spot on his
photographic plates where nothing
had appeared before. Watching the
tiny glob of light grow on his
telescope day by day, Kohoutek
recognized that an enormous comet
was hurtling towards our solar
system at a speed of better than
100,000 miles an hour. Further
calculations showed that should the
big comet hit the earth, it would
wipe out a city larger than Los
Angeles and blast a crater more
than 50 miles in diameter.


There will be no danger of
collision, however; at the nearest
point of approach, around the
middle of January, Comet Kohou-
tek, (named for its discoverer) will
be some 75 million miles from
earth. Nevertheless, in... terms of
stellar distances, that is "close".
Furthermore, as it zips around the
sun like a boomerang land heads
back into out into space, Comet
Kohoutek will be brighter than any
star in our heavens, except for the
sun. Furthermore, it will have a
bright blue and yellow "tail"
trailing behind.
What is the danger? Simply
this: in late December, when the
Comet will be at its ,'brightest
during late afternoon hours, it will
be very close to the sun. There is
the danger that some people,
especially smail children, may be
tempted to turn their telescopes or
binoculars to take a look directly at
the sun itself. If one should do that,
however, there is the grave danger
that the sun will literally burn a
hole in the retina of the eye,
causing a permanent blind spot.
So, pass the word: enjoy the
"greatest show on earth"'as Comet
Kohoutek pays us a visit, and
watch for it in the skies; but never,
never look directly at-the sun.

CHAMBER SHOPPING

-. of Commerce


Etaoin


Shrdlu
by WESLEY R. RAMSEY


Thanksgiving is over and with it, part of
my annual vacation, taken two days at
Thanksgiving and a few more days at
Christmas.
Thanksgiving day we took our annual trek
to Mother-in-law's house for a second holiday
lunch after stuffing at noon at Mother's house
here in Port St. Joe.
While up in Georgia we ran across some
people making some cane syrup and stopped to
buy some. Two of the grandsons were with us
n and got to see something which is rapidly going
r the way of the Gooney Bird.
The ecologists talk about the disappearing
Woods which are being gobbled up for man to
live in but they say not a word about the
disappearing crafts which turned out such
serviceable goods and delectable things to eat.
Where can you find a man today who knows
how to cane a chair, make shingles, make
lumber, smoke meat, make syrup, use an adz
or even sharpen a saw? True, we have
machines to do those things now, but somehow
the machine-made item loses all of its sense of
accomplishment, its color and a lot of its
service. Maybe if the crafts were preserved,
retired people would have something to do.
The machines have taken over because we
do not have the time nor the manpower to
produce merchandise as quickly as it is needed
these days. Too, manpower is too expensive to
spend whittling out shingles one at a time, or
any of the other skills which use to be so
common. I really don't know how those people
we came upon making syrup can grow the
cane, pay the four or five men who were busy
at the task, pay for the set-up to grind and boil
the cane juice and sell their syrup for $2.50 a
half gallon.
I got to wet a line in Brother-in-law's
man-made lake and caught a nice string of
bream and bass. Even that loses something in
the old-fashioned way of fishing; tying a boat
up under a shade tree and waiting for a bite. In
the dug and stocked lake, is was merely a
matter of baiting a hook and dropping it in. The
fish were there waiting to bite. No boat to
unload, no trip to the river, po getting things
together. The tackle was tlebes bde thelake-
and it was mfierely a matter of getting some
bait, walking down the steps from the
air-conditioned house to the lake edge and
getting to it. It's handy and I enjoyed it and
look forward to going back, but that kind of
fishing loses something in the transition.

We got back home Sunday evening in time
to hear the President's message on the energy
crisis and what faces us in the weeks and
months to come.
Sunday afternoon, I was sort of glad there
is a gasoline shortage. If there was no shortage
and everyone who wanted to travel but didn't
because of gasoline shortages had been on the
road, I don't believe I could have gotten up on
1-75 til yet. It was that crowded. The only
evidence of a gasoline shortage was when
you began to run low in the tank and try to find
a station open. They were scarce.
The thing which surprises me was the
stations which were open.
Remember back a few months ago when it
was publicized that the major oil firms were
manufacturing the gasoline shortage to squeeze
the independents. out of business? The
independents were open Thanksgiving day and
Sunday but the major oil stations were not.

Some of the President's recommendations
for conserving energy are going to hurt a little.
After listening to his suggestions and digesting
them in the paper Monday morning, they
appear to be suggestions which were well
thought out. No doubt the 50 mile per hour
speed limit will rankle a bit when one starts on
a long trip, but the new limit probably won't
delay the traveler very much. It'll save him
money as well as gasoline and will more than
likely do more than 50 Governor's "Arrive
Alive" programs to cut down on traffic
accidents.
I'm a 70 mile per hour man myself out on
the highways and slower if traffic situations
call for it, but I'm going to slow it down, save
my money and gasoline and arrive 10 minutes
later.

It's downright funny how all the politicians
are getting on the conserve energy bandwagon.
Representative Carl Albert made the
headlines by saying President Nixon's
conservation plan wouldn't work even before he
publicized it.
A few months ago, it was the "in" thing to
shout for the ecology. Even before that, a man
was elected to the Governor's chair on the


favorite song of tax reform. He was elected,
taxes were reformed and now we pay more.
Maybe we had better quit listening, to the
politician who jumps on these bandwagons.

clean.

mand flew approximately

equipment to- three. different:
-airfields in Gema_.y.--in
preparation for the event.
Immediately after arriving

Roche

Rambles
By W. C. Roche



A well-adjusted person is one who can play golf and
bridge as if they were games.

Once a fool and his money were soon parted. Now
the government doesn't make any distinction.

Strange how carless pedestrians are when you're
driving, and how reckless drivers are when you're
walking.

Archeologist: someone whose career lies in ruins.

School bus driver: a man who thought he liked
children.

THE STATE OF FLORIDA TO:
ALL PERSONS, FIRMS AND COR-
PORATIONS OWNING, HAVING OR
CLAIMING AN INTEREST IN OR
LIEN ON THE ABOVE DESCRIBED
PROPERTY:
YOU AND EACH OF YOU are
hereby notified that the above
described property has been seized,
under and by virtue of Chapter 562,
Florida Statutes as amended, and is
now in the possession of the Florida
Game and Fresh Water Fish Commis.
sion and you, and each of you, are
hereby further notified that a Petition,
under said Chapter, has been filed in
the Circuit Court of the Fourteenth
Judicial Circuit, in and for Gulf County,
Florida, seeking the forfeiture of the
said property, and you are hereby
directed and required to file your
claim, if any you have, and show
cause, on or before January 3, 1974, if
not personally served with process
herein, why the said property should
not be forfeited pursuant to said
Chapter. Should you fail to file a claim


Should you or should you
not fertilize shade trees?
A great many people will
go to any length to fertilize
their lawns butj ever give a
thought to wher the trees
on their lawn get any
nutrients at all. Their reason-
ing seems to be that since
forests make out fine without
any artificial feeding, why'
shouldn't residential type
trees?
Application of fertilizers
can improve the general
health of shade trees, in most
cases, visibly. A healthy tree
is much more able to resist
insects and diseases. And


has herein directed, judgment will be
entered 'herein against you in due
course. Persons not personally served
with process may obtain a copy of the
Petition for forfeiture filed herein from
the undersigned Clerk of Court.
WITNESS my hand and the seal of
the above mentioned court, at Port St.

1973.

Slash,
n s otIr


Throughout the Pacific,
particularly Indonesia,
natives distill the leaves of
herblike shrubs and grasses
to obtain for cosmetics and
soap a geranium odor called
geraniol. Florida. chemists
make a synthetic geraniol oil.
Its source? Florida pine.
A good perfume .will


To some people, the slash
pine is an overrated symbol
of Florida's forest resource.
Beside the splendor of trees
that glisten with color in fall,
pine plantations are indeed
monotonous to some.
However, if there were
but one slash pine standing
anywhere, scientists, chem-
ists, and researchers would
probably stand before it in
awe.
The fact that so much of
the Florida forest is in slash
pine in no way lessens the
marvel of the tree itself.
From "essence of pepper-
mint" to "essence of 'My Sin'
perfume," it is a great
synthesizer of magical sun-
dries.
From the very first when
"Americans" came to this
land they found massive and
diverse forests which have
never ceased to be useful.
Yet Americans are surely not
alone in drawing from their
wooded resources.,
Italians squeeze an oil from
the rind of a tiny citrus called
bergamot and sell it world-
wide to perfume' blending
houses. In Florida, chemists
make a synthetic bergamot
oil from the "perfumery"
tree.
Brazilians distill the wood
of a tree to derive rosewood
oil for use in perfumes and
cosmetics. In Florida chem-
ists make a synthetic rose-
wood oil from the"niagic tree.
Natives of India aiid Ceylon
distill grasses to yield citron-
ella and citral oils, both very
heavy lemony aromas, for
use in pharmaceuticals and
cosmetics. In Florida chem-
ists make these oils syntheti-
cally from pine.


contain over 100 ingredients
and less than a dozen
perfumery oils are now
produced by research cheln-
ists; these are often, how-
ever, the larger components
in a fine perfume. Today's
perfume may have as much
.as 40 percent of its volume
synthesized from Florida's
forests. Chemists hope some
day soon to make it better
than 75 percent.
The secrets of the pine tree
have been much exposed and
utilized the past 20 years, and
are yielding perfumery oils
which are superior to the
myrrh and frankincense
available only to kings and
queens 100 years ago.

TALLAHASSEE-rSome
years ago, Donald Hamilton,
creator of the Matt Helm
adventure series of paper-
backs, put together a book of
outdoor-oriented stories
titled, "On Guns and Hunt-
ing."
While the book is long out
of print, a treasured, yet
dog-eared copy, remains on
my bookshelf, often to be
taken down and re-read for
the sheer pleasure of vicari-
Sously enjoying a day or a
week afield, shooting strange
named birds on the Irish
moors, or seeing a non-
descript water dog retrieve
ducks while working the At-
lantic flyway.
And as a final piece, the
author offers a commentary,
on the anti-gun movement, in
which Hamilton clearly and
concisely sweeps aside those
routine rebuttals long offered
to those of the anti-gun,
anti-hunting faction.
He grants this "anti"
group the right to turn veg-
,etarian rather than sanction
the slaughter of a pen-raised
hereford steer for the dinner
table. He doesn't kneel before
the arguments of the "right
to keep and bear arms"
groups. He acknowledges a
need for the harvest of a
renewable resource -via the
hunt route.
And he puts into words
the fact that he enjoys shoot-
ing.
Not, he argues, that he has
a right to hunt, or that our
forefathers tamed the coun-
try while hunting, or any of
the normal and accepted ar-
guments in this vein. He
simply states that he loves to


fire his guns.
He speaks with love of the
feel of a good riflestockl fac-
ing his cheek, the delicacy of
squeezing off a round from a
properly tuned target
weapon, and the sheer pleas-
ure derived as a mark appears
in the center of an un-
blemished square of target-
board.
And he smiles at the old
argument of the gun haters,
"If we prevent one tragic
accident, it's worth removing
all guns from the hands ..of:,
individuals ..." In response
he asks if we shall confiscate
all boats, water skis, fishing
tackle and swim trunks, since
statistics show double the
drownings occur than do
shooting fatalities.
And while he gently de-
stroys the arguments of the
more rabid factions of the
antiss", he admits the gun
hater will not be swayed from
his rigid stance, and the anti-
hunters will likely not join
him on his next foray afield.
But he does ask how these
people have the right to tell
him what he can or cannot do
with his property, and his
time, and his well-earned
guns?
Mr. Hamilton is a writer,
and through his word use,
well balanced with reason, he
writes a piece about owning,
using and enjoying guns.
I'm sorry everyone can't
read his article, since it says
all the things the hunter and
gun enthusiast would like to
say.
And it's a real pleasure to
see, enjoy and re-read his
words over again.
Thank you, Donald Hamilton.

Color Up Your



Home With



Poinsettias


Highly prized throughout
Florida and widely beloved
as a symbol of the Christmas
season is the poinsettia. No
other flower can make such a
brilliant show of bright red
throughout the festive weeks
of December and January.
The poinsettia, Euphorbia
pulcherrima, is a member of
the spurge family which
includes common ornamen-
tals like crown-of-thorns,.
copper-leaf, castor-bean and
Florida's colorful crotons.
The naming of the poinsettia
is a story in itself.
The common name, poin-
settia, honors Joel R. Poin-
sett of Charleston, South
Carolina who as United
States Minister to Mexico
introduced this plant from
Mexico about 1830. The genus
name, Euphorbia, comes
from the Greek physician
Euphorbus and includes
many herbs and' shrubs
having acrid milky juice. The
species name, pulcherrima,
is from the .Latin adjective
pulcher-meaning beautiful
or handsome. The Romans
used intensifiers which they
tacked on to their adjectives.
Thus when the old botanist
Karl Ludwig Willdenow was
searching for a suitable name
for the new Mexican plant he
described about 15b years
ago, he couldn't avoid calling
it "the very beautiful Eup-
horbia", or Euphorbia pul-
cherrima. This example of
how a plant is named points
out the importance and
significance of the scientific
naming of all plants. The
descriptive nature of the
name is obvious when we
learn the Latin meaning and
the name is the same for all
people since it is in Latin or a
Latinized form of Greek.


Another interesting point
about poinsettias is their
"flowers". The true flowers
are small, green and yellow
and inconspicuous. The
showy red parts, often called
flowers, are not parts of the
flower; instead, they are
highly. modified petal-like
leaves, which the botanist
calls bracts. The so-called
white flowers of the dogwdod
are also bracts.
Poinsettias are predomi-
nately greenhouse grown as
pot plants for Christmas in
most of the United States, but
in Florida they .can be
utilized as colorful landscape
shrubs. In north Florida they
can be frozen to the ground
before flowering so are best
used as pot plants. Varieties
having red, white and pink
bracts are available.
Another excellent use of
poinsettias is as cut flowers.
The bracts need to be treated
to coagulate the milky sap
and reduce wilting. Immerse
the cut end of the stem in hot
water for one minute and
then place immediately in
cold water. An alternate
method is to singe the cut end
of the stem over a flame for
a second or two and then
place in cold water. Cut the
flowers at least 18 to 24 hours
before they are to be used
and store in a cool place.
If you're given a potted
poinsettia for Christmas,
don't ,throw it away after the
holidays. Save the plant until
there is no danger of a freeze
and plant it in your home
landscape. By next Christ-
mas you can have a very
large plant which will add a
great deal of "spirit" and
color to your home-inside
and out!
