Nothing's Forever Nothing lasts forever, Even the most durable things crumble and decay after a while. Here in Port St. Joe, we have been lucky, in a sense, in that we had adequate utilities, giving reasonably ade- quate service. Even these services grow old and begin to give trouble. It's like owning a car which is paid fpr. It's fun riding along in a fiachine for which one owes no payments, but suddenly there comes the realization that the free ride is over and it's time to do something else. In Port St. Joe, this time has come with our water and sewer distribution system. Most of the system was put in, brand spanking new, in 1937. Now'it is giving more and more trouble and it's time to give up the free ride and do something else. The City Commission took 'the first step this past week in what will surely prove to be an expen- sive process of replacing and over- hauling these systems. We don't see these needed repairs as private citizens, because they .are. buried underground. If you happen to live on one of- the streets served by a six inch' sewer main where the need is 'now for an eight inch or larger, you have felt the problem even though you' might not have seen it. To make these repairs it will be necessary to dig. This means, some of our streets will likely be in a mess beginning about the middle of the year. It will mean a little inconvenience. In the long run, though, the work to be performed will mean safer, more efficient collection of the sewer and, better water for everyone. Now that the City Commission has the sewer and water systems operating on their own with no outside financial assistance needed for their daily routine of service, the City can afford to put- the systems in first. class shape and make a few provisions for the future in the process. Maybe, after the work' is all finished, we will be set for nearly another 40 years of adequate ser- vice in these vital areas. Gov.

I came across this piece the. other day, which was said to be authored by Lincoln and gives ten negatively stated gems of political wisdom from his speeches: You cannot bring about prosperity by discouraging thrift. You cannot strengthen the weak by '.** .ikt-nini. the strong. You cannot help small men by tearing down big men. You cannot help the poor by destroying the rich. You cannot lift the wage earner by. puilinig down the wage pa.ivr. You cannot keep out of trouble by spending more than your income. You cannot further brotherhood of men by i1icifTrig class hatred. You cannot establish sound security on borrowed money. You cannot build character and cour- age by taking away a man's initiative. You cannot really help men by having the Government tax them to do for them what they can and should do for themselves. President Ni,\'-ig made it perfcti-ly clear over the week end.

Can you imagine what is making the .British people completely ruin their country? The Unions in the nationalized industry are up in'arms, <.,i(.,l-1T:, -shutting the country down at a time when the tottering nation can little afford a crisis. The nation is for all practical purposes bankrupt and now we have its own people putting the killing thrust between the Old Girl's shoulder blades-. One thing England has accomplished Her American cousins secretly wish they could accomplish. The nation island now has a three day work week-due to shortages-while their American cousins have their union leaders at work striving for a four day work week. Things could evolve to a no day work Week. Wouldn't that be something! I'm glad we elected Paula Hawkins to the Public Service Commission. She has made the news regularly with good copy from a state operation one rarely heard anything about. She has dared to say a. utility needs higher rates when they did (and who doesn't in these days of high prices), and committed the ultimate of sins by publicly stating the public was paying the bills for utilities' corporate taxes. She says they are a business expense and should be considered as such. She has also been in the middle of things all year long on virtually every matter which has interested the public. In addition to her activities, she is also a very pretty woman, and. that doesn't hurt any. THE STAR, Port St. Joe, Fla. THURSDAY, JANUARY 24, 1974 PAGE THREE .m..

It-takes careful plan- ning, several years and per- petual maintenance. The main goal in landscaping should be'to.provide a quality living environment which can be used and enjoyed by you .and your family. Ideally, the landscape and the home should be planned og, otherr For .most families, a house will be their single largest investment. So, every effort should be made to obtair, rraximuin value for t..e r~,r.. .spent. The type of lot ,afid how well it is deve- .1ped-including landscaping --can add to or detract from. future property values.. If properly lanscaped, a lot-and ,home can greatly increase in value. Too often we see a beautiful home on an attrac- tive site with practically no landscaping. This is a :sad.. sight indeed. With only a little planning and minimum expense (as compared to the price of the home) the pack- age could be completed. And, very often a few hundred dollars for plants adds thou- sands of dollars to the pro- perty value in a few years. The time to start consider- ing your landscaping is when buying a lot. Much of its potential landscape develop- ment and value as real estate can be determined at that time. Consider these. factors on the location you are think-' ing about. What happens during the rainy season? Does water stand on any part of the lot or does it soak into the ground quickly? Avoid sites where poor surface water drainage is evident, or lots where water collects. Excess water can hinder *:*, .ri'. ',:,-, and make growing plants diffi- cult. Check the soil on the lot and if it is very sandy and usually dry, consider . improvement prior to land- scaping.. One of the most. important factors .g.. *. .:ir on lot selection .: ,:,, ,' *., ',,' trees. A few mature trees will greatly enhance the immed- late landscape effect. Also, any small ,. r. .trees can be used in -':..:- trans- planted to fit into the design. Good. trees .increasedproperty values and should be saved by marking and staking off to prevent removal or damage during construction. Remove the crowded, inferior species and' save the others. Also select -the kind of lot which will : '. r w.'. needs. Some families need large open spaces for chil- dren. Others, may want space left natural to reduce mainte- nance. Fit the lot to your desires if at all -, '-."

Patrol Director Colonel Eldrige Beach said, "The S ------:': in Victoria, Austra- lia, after one year of a mandatory seat belt use law, show there was a 2~-. ., in traffic -: : If this had been in 526 of the 2,632 people killed .in 1973 would still be alive today. :.: have shown that many people are thrown out of cars during a crash and these people' are 30 times more .. :. to be killed than if they had remained inside. Records -from 'another state indicate that nearly 25 per- cent of people killed in crashes are :-:;-f from the vehicle. Florida accident records for 1972 show that in 118,166 crashes where seat belts were in use, 171 were killed with 29,477 injured. Of 373,362 crashes where seat belts were not in use, 1,950 were .killed and 100,244 injured. This shows that there were three times -as many 'acci- dents where people did not use seat belts compared with accidents where belts were not in use, but there were five times as many and nine times as many killed when seat belts were not in use. Colonel Beach concluded by ,a '. that, "Those motorists not wearing seat belts do a * little serious thinking to see if they can convince themselves that seat belts could save- their lives."
