moved to its present service across the Intracoastal
Canal at Overstreet in 1849 when the new bridge went

County Chamber' of Commerce
has been scheduled for Monday,

ing to out-going president/ Wes

Thompson said Lt. Governor
Tom Adams will be the featured
speaker at this year's affair.
The dinner will also be the oc-
casion for seating the.new pres-
ident of the Chamber. The new
president will be selected by the
Board of Directors after their

Snell said his projection was
that the district would. have an
\annual income of approximately
S$26,520 per year with expenses
and' payments o0 $261440. His
figures were based- on 170 cus-
tomers with estimated average
water 'bills of $7.50 pero month
and estimated .average sewer
bills of $5.50Q per month. Sell
said the average expense per
customer couhl be reduced if
the county; pledged some cigar-
ette tax money or assessed taxes
against the property in question.
The Board members said they
would require the system to pay
its own way.
Snell said "I feel the district
can meet all its obligations with
. its revenues from the rates sug-
gested by FHA."
FHA had suggested a $3.75
minimum water rate for 2,000
gallons with the rate graduating
at 90c-for. the next 2,000 gal-
lons; 75c per thousand for the
next 2,000 gallons; 60c per thou-
sand for the next 10,000 and
50c per thousand for all over
'this amount.
Snell huddled for about 30
minutes with Oak Grove Water
District committee members
James Hanlon, Mr. and Mrs.

The committee agreed to a
minimum sewer rate of $3.00

meeting that h14s office record reveal that the year 1971
was the most active ir the history of Gulf County for the
Clerk's office, which, transacts iost of the County's
business activities. '* .
There were 2,111 d mrtgages, Einal judg-
ments, etc., recorded; 20 civil court and 62 criminal
court cases filed and 1,43 payments for alinony and
support were processed. .,/,!

lected from taxes and other regular sources of coUnity
income. The largest single monetary item handled was
alimony and support payments, which ran to $69,620.63.
Core said that because of sound fiscal policies,
the County is.enjoying the best financial condition ever,
even in building, a, new $75,000.00 mosquito control of-
fice and warehouse and a policy of up-dating all county
equipment.' One sour note in the future fiscal condition
appears to be, hat the. aimtenance of the County's
Secondary road system .may(cost the County more than
funds to be receied from the State for this purpose.

TH STAR, Port St. Joea Flrid THURSDAY, JANUARY 27, 1972


All of you who have been. faint of heart about our ng-
tion, its strength and its reputation may take a new lease
on life. Hold your head up! Throw back your shoulders!.
Puff out your chest! Get a twinkle back in your eye and
squeeze out a tear vhen you hear "The Star Spangled
Banner"., Somebody is still fearful of our strength.
After 20 years of listening to the propaganda put out'
by Rupsia and the Red Chinese about the United States
being a "Paper Tiger", many of our faint at heart citi-
zens have begun to believe it themselves. Ten years of
letting a little rinky-dinli nation in Southeast Asia push
us around hasn't helped matters. In a sense, our policy
in the no-win war have only served to add fuel to the
-Russian and Chinese claims of weakness and,lave made
our/ men of fighting age run from a fight, rather than de-
fend -our honor and reputation.
Prophets of doom have become rich off publishing
books, periodicals- and articles foretelling the emminent
defeat of the United States.- Even those who have the
reputation of being tough have all but throwpv in the towel'
because our arsenal of fighting weapons has been allowed
to run down until it has been declared second rate., See-

POST OFFICE A BUSINESS?
The cry has been to get the post office out of the "red"
and run it like a business. Now that the P.O. is being
operated like a corporation, the first business-like thing
they do is raise all rates, with more hikes to come.
A Texas Congressman said that rural post offices are
on the "chopping block". He said that plans are well un-
der way to close many smaller third and fourth class post
offices. In addition he said that the Postal Services is
now considering closing or severely reducing he services
of some second class and even first class post offices in
rural communities.
It may have sounded "businesslike" for us to say that
each piece of mail ought to pay its way, but the govern-
ment seems to have forgotten that all of its mail, includ-
ing the frank privilege of the politicians and the free ride
for the military, is' carried without charge.'
Does the government really want each piece to pay
its own way, or is it trying to soak the rest of us for all the
free-loading federal mail? "
SIt'ss fie that' a lot of "junk" mail with a third class
permit, is long overdue for a raise in rates. Much of this
mail is unwelcome in the first place and should be charged
to the hilt for mailing privileges.- But' the government,
need not look any further than its own backyard if it's
seeking a way to cut down on the rising costs of mailing,
a letter.

The situation does not apply

And, automobile manufactur-

body wants a car and everybody
wants to drive his car at thie
same time.
Meanwhile, mass transporta-
tion is falling by the wayside.
Trains and buses are not the pro-
fit-makers they. once were. Be it
Volkswagen or Cadillac, the car
is king.
Americans still have a chance
to bail out before the jam. But,
we must make some decisions
now.
Better designed highways and
interstates aren't enough. We al-
so need stronger and safer cars.

Now the President says we are going to build a new
submarine when we have the Poseiden which is said to be
the most destructive fighting machine ever invented or
built by any nation in the world. (How can we be sec-

But even after years of hammering atl our mythical
weakness up to and including the point where our own
people begin to believe it, we take heart in the news re-
ported last week. President Anwar Sadat of Egypt said
publicly and forthrightly, that he would have attacked
Israel in December except for the fact that he didn't want
to fight both Israel and the United States. President Sa-
dat admitted publicly that he didn't'wan, to tackle some-
one as big and strong as the United, States.
As far as we know, President Sadat is the only leader
in the world who has admitted he can't whip the United
States. It's nice to know someone is still respectful of our
power.

PITY TH POOR VOTER
In Russia; and many other countries with communistic
leanings, voters havq little choice in deciding who will
govern (or rule) them. Often the ballot will list only
one candidate and it is not uncommon for him to receive
somethingolike 99.99 percent of the votes cast. The least
that can be said is that the voters in those countries have
little trouble making a decision as to how to vote.
Pity the poor Florida voter, however. Come March
and he will be faced with a presidential preference ballot
longer than Wilt Chamberlain.
And talk about choice: George Wallace and Shirley
Chisom on the same ballot.

We read in a newsmagazine that members of Con-
gress, as soon as the election is over are going to give
themselves a raise to $50,000 a year. They cannot make
it, it appears on their current increase.
At the same time, and he was a fairly daring man,
a member of theFlorida Legislature has been given much
criticism for coming up with the notion that dependent
children in Florida ought to have $4.00 a month more.
About the only rejoinder we can come up with is
an Anglo-Saxonism of four letters that is not permitted.
in this paper, although it is all right at the picture show,
of course.

Jacksonville Floridans last
year paid one out of every seven
dollars of total personal income
to the Federal Government in in-
come taxes, the Florida State Cham-
ber of Commerce reported yester-
day in its Weekly Business Review.
The State Chamber said that
Floridians received $24.9 billion in
total personal income in 1970 and,
according to the U. S. Internal
Revenue Service, $3.4 billion of
that amount was paid to the Fe-
deral Government in income taxes
in 1971.
"Payments to Uncle Sam in 1971
for income earned in 1970 were up
four per cent over the previous
fiscal year, while income earnings
in Florida increased 11 per cent
over 1969," State Chamber Exe-
cutive Vice President, Ronald S.
Spencer Jr., said.
Federal revenue collections on
income earned by Florida corpor-
ations were down slightly for the
same period $592 million, as
"opposed to $598 million in 1970,
the Review said.
"Nationally, the average drop in
income taxes paid by corporations
to the Federal Government was 13
per cent, reflecting the economic
slump of 1970. In Florida, the de-
.crease in income taxes paid by cor-
porations to the Federal Govern-
ment, was about one per cent,"
Spencer noted.
The Federal Government also ex-
perienced a decrease in the a-
mount of excise tax collections on
tobacco sold in Florida. Tax col-
lections dropped from $11.5 mil-
lion to 1970 to $10.4 million last
year, a 10 per cent decrease.
"This drop in revenue was due
mostly to a drop in cigarette sales
which to some degree, resulted
from the five cent per pack tax in-
crease imposed by the State Le-
gislature last year. The state ci-
garette tax collection still managed
to show a '$4.5 million gain during
the year," Spencer said.
The amount of Federal tax col-
lections in Florida on personal and
corporate income, estates, gifts and
other items last year was $4.4 bil-
lion, or two per cent of the total
$191.6 billion collected'nationwide,
the Review said.

like California, New York and
Massachusetts have been exper-
iencing for years. Don't think it
can't happen here because it is
happening and will continue to
get worse.

I was reading in the paper the other day where a poll
has been made concerning the popularity of various sports
in these United States of ours. Football grabbed first
place in popularity with.baseball right on its heels. In
third place was basketball.
Here in our part of the country, we go along with
the rest of the nation in opting first for the exciting and
moving game of football. Second as a spectator sport is
basketball. Baseball is still in the running, but mostly
its a "talking" sport around the town's watering spots
in the mornings with fever getting red hot around world
series time. Ice hockey, which was about number five in
the poll with only a 17%, following if I recall correctly, just
isn't in the race in the South.
Football on the tube will go out of the picture this
Sunday with the last gasp being the pro bowl game. So
what do we get it replaced with on TV? Ice hockey!
Here in the South, we've hardly ever heard of an ice 1
hockey, much less seen one, so what do we want with ice
hockey on TV?
'I truly enjoy flaking out on a Sunday afternoon and
watching a professional basketball game on TV. That
is a fine TV watching sport almost as good as football.
Ice hockey I don't read. I think I have a lot of company
in this respect. Maybe we should all get together and
write our TV stations to air pro basketball on Sundays
and leave ice hockey to someone else. Here in the sunny
South we spend a lot of advertising money telling the
world we don't have ice down here, except in a cold drink.
Let's stamp it out of our living room TV viewing, too.
y
President Nixon is now beginning to echo the claim of
some of the states that property tax as a base of support-
ing schools is discriminatory. Some counties can afford
better schools than others because of higher property
valuations than others, so the poorer county is discrim-
inated against. They want to equal things up a bit.
I guess is isn't discrimination if our kids don't get
the benefit of what we are able to afford for them, so we
can phase our operations down to what other counties
can meet.
The President is said to be looking with favor on the
European introduced Value Added Tax to provide funds
for education and do away with the property tax which
discriminates against the poor. The Value Added Tax
would, in effect, be a sales tax, but it would be hidden.
The tax would be collected on a wholesale level and-added
to the price of the merchandise. Instead of the clerk
handing you an item and saying "That'll be 99c and four
cents tax please", he or she would hand you the item'and
say -"That'll be $1.03, please". That's not supposed to
hurt.
The Value Added Tax may be a good thing. From
what I have read of it, it would be a fair tax. But then, so
is property tax, since the vast majority of the people now
own rather than rent the place in which they live. The
Value Added Tax would be fair in that it would be applied
to everyone and to every thing.
But this business of finding a tax which would be
easier to pay is for the birds. There just isi't such a
thing. Tax is money, necessary and hard to pay, no mat-
ter what package it is wrapped in.

Hi You All:
We're still alive and shoveling
snow. I sure miss St. Joe and am
looking forward* to a visit this
spring.
The family is all fine and
dandy, only one problem--sqme-
body's been hi-jacking my copy
of The Star or maybe my sub-
scription has run out?
If you can find a recent copy
of The, Star which carried a let-
ter from my daughter to a Santa
in St. Joe will you please for-
ward a copy to us. Really Wes,
we have been skipped one or
two weeks at a time. I enjoy
reading about the people rve
met and it makes me feel a part
of St. Joe.
I'm back repairing homes,
damaged by fire. I guess rll
never be able to give up my left-
handed Skil saw.

John, we don't know why you
aren't getting the paper regular-
ly. You are paid up (for a while)
and it is mailed every week. The
only possible explanation is that
the paper leaves here in a thin
paper wrapping and when it gets
close to that ice and snow (being
a Southern paper) it just turns
around and starts back to the
warm South or something.-Ed.

home decor because they are per-
manent, can be colorful and pro-
vide an outlet for a person's arti-
stic talents. Dried flowers, grasses
and weeds can be dramatically dis-
played in glass containers such as
brandy snifters, candy jars, glass
teapots, sugar bowls and assorted
miscellany. And, under glass in a
frame, dried arrangements take on
a fresh, life-like luminosity.
There are two simple methods
for drying flowers. Certain flowers
can be dried more successfully by
one process while others require a
different treatment. Try both
methods on a variety of plants and
see which works the best.
The first method is to simply
air-dry the collected flowers. Re-
move leaves from the flower stalk,
tie the flowers together with a
string or fine wire and hang where
there is good ventilation. If you
also need leaves, they can be pre-
srved by flattening inside books or
beneath some heavy object. First
put the leaves inside a few pages of
newspaper so that they don't stain
the book in which they are pressed.
Flowers that are easily air-dried
include larkspur, baby's breath,
blue sage, and many grasses and
weeds. Certain blooms, such as
straw flowers, should be prepared
for drying immediately after they
are cut because they dry out so
quickly.
The second method which is
used for drying flowers such as
coral bells, marigolds, violas, zin-
nias, daisies and roses uses a de-
hydrating mix. Combine two lbs.
of borax, five pounds of corn meal
and two tablespoons of benzoate
of soda. Mix thoroughly and spread
about two inches of this mixture in
a shallow box. Remove the flowers
from the stems and place in the
box so that they don't touch.
Sprinkle the drying mixture over


Drying natural flowers for de-
corative purposes ,is a very old
hobby. Almost every pioneer home
displayed dried flowers during the
winter time. It seems that such
things have been out of fashion for
a good many years and modern,

the flowers until completely cover-
ed. Additional layers of flowers
and leaves can be added and cover-
ed until the box is filled. Finally,
seal the box by taping aluminum
foil or plastic over top and sides.
Allow about one week for drying.
When the flowers are dry, re-
move and put a two to four inch
section of No. 2 florist's wire
through each flower head, securing
the wire by bending it into a hook
at the flower-head end. This short
wire can then be attached to lon-
ger wire which becomes the stem.
Leaves can be attached to the stem
by the same procedure. The final
step is to wrap with green floral
tape and then make your arrange-
ments!
Keep arranging and trying new
plant materials until you can make
an arrangement you are proud
enough to display in your home.
Dried arrangements can be most
satisfying and creative hobby. Plus,
it's always fun!

Airman Dies In

Scuba Mishap

Larry E. Dalton, age 21, a Tyn-
dall AFB Sergeant died Sunday
evening as result of a scuba diving
accident in the Gulf of Mexico.
According to the Tyndall Infor-
mation Office, five Tyndall persons
were scuba diving around Stage I
in the Gulf when the accident oc-
curred. The sergeant was down
with another person, the report
states, -when-he apparently-ran out
of oxygen. The young man then
surfaced too fast, apparently and
got the bends. He was taken to the
decompression chamber at the
Navy base, according to the,report,
where he died at 6:25 p.m.
Water depth around Stage I, ap-
proximately five miles out from
shore, is 100 to 110 feet. The spot
is a favorite' one for expert scuba
divers.


Larry is survived

Funeral services will be conduct-
ed at a later date in California.

Area Historian Mrs. Louise M. Porter

A.M., in St. Patrick's Catholic
Church in Apalachicola for the

ary of Apalachicola was in

Cemetery in Apalachicola.
Mrs. Porter died suddenly at
her home located "at 1111 Palm
Boulevard,"Port St, Joe,' on Sun-
day, January 16. She was born
in, Apalachicola March 17,, 1905.
She 'was the 'daughter of Captain
Joseph and Etta (Cumbleworth)
Messina, paternal granddaughter

the Confederate Army during
the War Between the States. Her
maternal grandparents w e r e

alachicola. Mrs. Pporter was of
Dutch, English and Italian des-
cent; was a twelfth generation
descendant of Annake Jans Bo-
gardus of the Dut9h colony of
New York, and of the American
Revolutionary soldier Cornelius
Van Tassel of New, York.
Mrs. Porter was educated in
the Catholic Parochial Schools of
Apalachicola, I at r attended

en, Tallahassee; Greenville Wo-
man's College and Furman Uni-
versity, Greenville, South Car-
olina, majoring in English and

tarial and commercial courses at-
the College of ,Commerce, St.
Louis University, St. Louis, Mis-
souri.
She was married to Ned Swin-
dell Porter of Apalachicola, Sep-
tember 21, 1929, aAid was wid-
owed by his tragic death occurr-
ing in 1968 as a result of a flash
explosion aboard his cabin crui-
ser the "Rusty".
Widely known for her many
talents, it was in the .field of
history, particularly Florida his-
tory that she chose to give, ex-
pression of her talent and 'crea-
tiveness. At an early age she ori-
ginated, staged and' directed
four patriotic productions in Lit-
tle Theatre work in Apalachi-
cola. Later she originated, stag-
ed and directed two major pat-
riotic pageants in Apalachicola
and Port St. Joe utilizing local
talent..
Her book of historical poems,
"Pasqua Florida",, The Feast of
the Flowers, was published in
1954 by Dorrance and Company
of Philadelphia. This was per-
haps the first time that Florida's
historical heritage was attempt-
ed in poetry. The publishers ac-
claimed the book as being mark-
ed with imagery with exquisite
sensitivity and lightness of touch
revealing unusual depths of un-
derstanding and love. Her style
was hailed as artistically new
and intriguingly fresh.
With the assistance of her
daughter, she created and assemn


Gulf Adds 10

To Traffic Deaths

TALLAHASSEE A record
2,351 persons died in traffic crash-
es on Florida's highways during
1971 the Florida Highway Patrol
said today. Ten of these deaths
occurred in Gulf Codnty.+
Florida Highway Patrol Director,
Colonel Reid Clifton said, "More
persons died in traffic accidents
during 1971 than any other year in
the history of Florida. Deaths were
up eight percent over the previous
year."
According to Patrol records,
there were 181 more auto deaths
during 1971 on the State's streets
and highways than the previous
year.
The Patrol Chief said that 150,
350 people were injured in auto ac-
cidents during 1971 as compared
with 137,081 injuries during 1970.
Clifton said, "This terrible loss
is needless and preventable. Safe
driving must become a major con-
cern for every citizen of our State.
A special effort on the part of
every driver to use common sense
and defensive driving tactics will
help prevent another year of such
disaster."

Sign-Up Period for Feed Grain;

Wheat and Cotton Coming Up


The recently-announced change
in sign-up dates for 1972 set-aside
farm programs allows time for
consideration of the first availa-
ble data on producer's plans for
1972, according to Leslie Cobb,
County Executive Director for the
Agricultural Stabilization and Con-
servation Service.
"My understanding is that the
U. S. Department of Agriculture


wants to provide time for .both "Many farmers are asking if

first indication on a national scale
of what farmers are planning for
1972 in light of 1971 crop market-
ings.
In 1971, under a corn blight
threat which didn't mateialize,
farmers planted and harvested a
record corn crop. Wheat and feed
grain production wasn't far behind
and for farmers who had to sell at
harvest, prices were too low. On


the other hand, market competi-
tion for cotton and soybeans has
resulted in good prices for farmers.
The 1972 set-aside program pro-
visions announced by USDA are
designed to help American agri-
culture cut back on the acreage
planted to all crops and to encour-
age farmers to produce those
crops which best fit their farming
operations. The aid is to increase
through the markets as well as
protect farm income by making
crop lqans set-aside acreage pay-
ments available to program parti-
cipants.
Participation in the set-aside


programs is voluntary, and Febru-
ary 3 through March 10 is the
period when farmers sign-up at
ASCS county offices for participa-
tion.

thing--conduit, duct work, wir-
ing and space allowed was for
the five ton unit and were in-
stalled as per the working plans.
Gaskin said, "If you wish we
can put the larger unit in, but
it will cycle off before removing
the pIroper amount of humidity
from the air and will cause trou-
ble due to the short 6ycle per-
ior caused by.- being, too large,
for average use in the building.",
All of the Board, with the ex-
ception of Kennedy voted to
leave the' smaller unit in the
building.
The Board agreed to hold back
10% of the contract price for a
period of time to cover any de-
ficiencies which might show up
in the building.

In other business, the
Board awarded a bid for some
