If rear windows are covered with any material which makes them non-transparent, the vehicle must be equipped with side mirrors on both sides which permit a view of at least 200 feet to the rear. There is also a provision in this law which became effec- tive July 1, 1975, making it unlawful for any person to knowingly sell material which when installed, would be in violation of the new law. The director concluded by saying, "If you have doubt about whether or not the material on the front door windows and the rear windows is legal simply check to see if you can see into the vehicle through those windows."

It's hard for me to figure out that a mark across a running figure means "don't cross the street." "Don't Cross" spells it out mu better. Some dumb guy is going to come a some day and figure that sign means, "Ta Area Hit Pedestrians Here". I believe there are enough drivers in the United States who know how to read enough to make lettered signs safe for the ordinary driver and pedestrian.' Leave the charades for nursery school and parlor games. Etaoin SShrdlu By: WESLEY R. RAMSEY I ran into Glenn Boyles in his store the other day. You know, of course, Glenn is retired now, and his wife operates the business. Glenn recently had a pacemaker put in his gut to regulate a malfunction there which had been ,ii iig, him fits for years. His wife vouched for the fact that he was doing fine, now that he had that electronic gizmo working for him. I told Mrs. Boyles she should have traded Glenn in for a newer model while she had him in the h.,,p,a1l but she said she had too mnuch invested in him now to get rid of him.

The paper has received several news releases during the past few weeks telling the people that federal money is available to repair damages for those who suffered problems in the July and August rains. I've looked the articles over and printed some of them where they applied to the Gulf County area. Now, I think I have a claim after I have digested all the information made available for filing them. Located on the Southeast corner of my front 40 is a red bud tree. The red bud tree has recently come up dead. I consulted with the family garden club expert (my spouse) and learn that all the water we had during the said two months killed the tree. I must get busy and file my claim to replace the red bud before the deadline for filing passes. I guess I'll have to get at least three bids on another tree, bids on removal of the now-dead tree and installation of a new one. If Uncle Sam pays that claim, I'm going to quit paying taxes. I've been reading of the new cryptic road signs which are being installed on U.S. highways under a new program to make things more'" uniform on U.S. roads. On the recent trip to Pennsylvania by bus with the Raffield softball team I saw some of these new signs. They don't help a bit. The new signs are supposed to be designed to tell you with a picture what they want you to know. It's like playing charades while driving at 55 miler per hour down a crowded highway.

THURSDAY, SEPT. 25, 1975 Beaches Damaged Heavily Highland View and Mexico Beach took the brunt of the storm damage in the Port St. Joe area from Hurricane El- oise. In Highland View, St. Jos- eph's Bay came over the road and high wave action tore at buildings lining the highway. No buildings were destroyed by the high wave action, but all structures lining the high- way near the bay were flood- ed. A mobile home was report- ed to have been overturned by the storm. Highway 98 was virtually washed in two in Highland View, with traffic proceeding with caution in part of one lane after the road was re-opened.

The Senator said this lack of confidence is probably due to more accessi- i r Lr, of ti r -- to actions by Sin ,... than at any time in , the past. He felt there was probably more p k.:- ser- vants working to restore con- fidence now than at any time in the nation's history, but those tearing that confidence down are doing their deeds, in. a goldfish bowl. "Florida has the tools to be a model of F:, i ir"..: , Thomas told his audience. "Our new constitution, streamlined government agencies and checks and bal- ances between the legislative and executive has set Florida up as an example of modern efficient e -rinent he told the Rotarians. Thomas dwelt at length on -the permitting system along the coastline of Florida as an example of how government in the state is being changed to better serve the people. "We made changes this year", he said sarcastically, "which will actually allow a person to get an answer on his permit request before he dies of old age". In listing four areas which will draw considerable atten- tioin the next legislature, Thomas-gave the most atten- tion to the Department of Pollution Control. Thomas said attention would be given to the permit system to make it more effective. He went on to say there would be some changes in the methods and 6lteria for state purchase of angered lands. Other areas of intense con- cern to the Senator were the fuel adjustment law and its effect on utility prices; educa- tion and insurance, particu- larly malpractice insurance. Thomas said one education problem is that it takes $1,300 of the tax payers money to provide the 13th ..,r ..*f' .... tion for a student in state i* ..m,.,mo..1.'. 'ly. d and $3,- 600 to provide the same educa- tion in four-year r, %' .-* ,. - He I.. ir,. ,f there would be elimination of -,..,. .' of services in agencies and a !. ... -. t,,-.. of the Depart- ment of !,..'.-'. e, Control.

Star photo 1 ought LReemembe By Joe St. Clair t A sophomore in Washing- ton College was summoned ,to the President's office ,and gently admonished that only perseverance and industry, would prevent that failure that would in- evitably come to him through college and thru college and through- life. "'But, General (President Robert E. Lee), you fail- ed," remarked the sopho- more. "I hope that you will be more fortunate than .I," was the tranquil answer. To fail is no disgrace, but to fail and never rise again is tragic. Sometimes a treasure reclaimed from a shipwreck at the bottom of the sea is twice as valuable as before.

Edentield County Forester The Forestry Division of the Florida Department of Agri- culture and Consumer Ser- vices answers thousands of requests for assistance from tree farmers and other land- owners in the state. Foresters mark many thousands of trees from which sawtimber, pulp- wood, naval stores and other forest resources are harvest- ed. Services performed also in- clude general timber stand improvement, planting and effecting improved fire pro- tection measures on timber- land. Foresters offer their counsel to timbermen also in the field of marketing. Not the least of the forester's management efforts is in working out tech- nical programs for k.'.,. r frt- forest growth and yield. The ;,'*- -or,:, forester is in touch with the market and the changing demand for forest material, even as popu- lation grows and pressures increase. The Division of Forestry county forester helps a land- owner not solely in the plan- ning and pr-iep, ,i ,* 1,1:, of tree farming, but ',*-..'. J.,. cally after the timber stand is established. The trained fores- ter wants a landowner to get more from his trees. That is why he became a professional forester .. .that is why he spe- cialized in timber manage- ment. In. sizing up a p r'.," ,l.-,r forest tract, the forester may recommend measures against forest insects and diseases which damage trees. Or, if the timber stand is too sparse, it may be wise to encourage natural seeding. The forester may suggest culling out low quality trees, thereby stimu- '. ., the growth of valuable remaining trees. If the timber is too thick, selective -. :.' ri may be in order.

A 1lp.r:'. ball caused f.',,.1 bad passes from center to the punter and wr. ."i-- The rains stopped before the game, however, and never squeezed out an- other drop for the entire game. It looked as if the Sharks would get sor.e I.-."_ goingin a hurry, as Robert Farmer ripped off a 55 yard run on their second possession. But a fumble lost the ball on the Demon 35. Then, on their offensive series, Steve Cloud jumped on a Demon fumble on the Demon 40. The Sharks were unable to move, due to r1..' ,' -. and were forced to punt from the Demon 39. A bad pass from center had Bill Norton chasing the ball. When he recovered he punted with Demons hanging on to bhi back pocket and the KIi!i *: ..I,-'i straight up in the air coming down on the 40 yard line for a one yard kick. Then it was the Demons' turn to make errors with the slick ball. The stout Shark defense, which kept the pres- sure on all night, had the Demons back on their own 35 yard line with fourth down and 15 yards to go when the Demon center had the ball slip on his snap and it skidded along the ground. He recovered and came back to the 33 before he was downed. Robert Farmer then slipped through the line for a nine yard gain on first down. Owens pass was intercepted and the Demons had the ball on their own 17. On the first play from scrimmage, John Owens got the ball t'ri back by hiim, the Demon signal caller and forcing a fumble.

Except for the first half of the first quarter they played a good Texas " Tech team on even terms. And then ., came back to beat Utah State. Now f Utah State is nothing to write home about, but they did win. Iowa State is hardly the class of the Big Eight conference either, but neither was Missouri until the Alabama game. If FSU can win this one you can bet they're on their way up. May be not a winning season--their schedule is fairly tough-but certainly a far cry from the last two years. Let's hope!
