PORT ST. JOS A Progressive Community With a Modern, Progreslve Weekly Newspaper TE Ir * -'cin Pori It* d, T-the C cn Guf County Port St. Joe -The Outlet Port for the Apalachicola-Chattahoochee Valley" VOLUME XIX AORT ST. JOE, FLORIDA THURSDAY, JUNE 28, 1956 Single Copy So NUMBER 44. ETAOIN SHRDLU by WES'LEY R. RAMSEY- Pete Comforter was by the other day to tell us about Sunday's bal game. As he said, everything hap opened. Even a fight. A good time was had by all. Ronnie 'Sinquefeld slud (Dizz3 iDean) into first base before O'Nea McDaniel could tag him out. O'Neal was perplexed and threw the ball into the middle of Ronnie's back Then the fun began. The fracas ended with umpire (1st class) Jeff Piair ejecting O'Neal bodily trom the playing field. Maybe you and I had better get allttle time to go to the ball game. It sounds as if they are getting like they use to be when everybody went. 'See where the 'Little League ball diamond is lighted and night games will soon begin. May be a good thing. More parents can their offspring be an all-star. Speaking of ball diamonds, the football field is being resodded with a better grass and is sche- duled to be in operation by foot- ball season. Looks .like the Kiwanis Club meant business when they said they were going to seek the aid- of every organization in town to construct rest room facilities'and a fenct at the football field. The American Legion is beginning their part of the program by sponsoring a spa- ghetti supper to raise funds tomor- raw night from 6:00 to 8:00 p.m. a- the Legion Building. Anybody that would put a holi- day in the middle of the week, and especially on Wednesday, must have rocks in their head. We gotta work Wednesday. We are fast becoming a sub- scriber ,of those ,exponents of celebrating holidays on the near- est week end so that everyone will have a long week end off and time to go somewhere if they want to. ' z We wish to offer our thanks- to ,the folks that have congratulated us for "being in the money" since we have 'been driving that Mercury "rag-top" around the past two weeks. We hate to admit that the Mer- cury ,isn't ours and that we don't make enough money to buy one. If you see us driving one in the future (other than the rag-top) it will be because we struck it lucky and won one of Ed Sullivan's birth- day presents. ;- S - The St. Joe Saints have a win- ning streak going. They have won. their last three games. They started in the victor's path by defeating Apalachicola last Tuseday night. The second win was over Wewahitchka ifi the first night game on Wewahitchka's newly lighted field. The Saints took that- game 10-5. The third win was over Wewahitchka also on the local dia- mond Sunday afternoon. T h e Saint% came out on top of a 10-9 score. The Saints came from be- hind' in the last half of the-ninth inning to take the ball game. Three pitchers were used by the Saints. Hamm started and was re- lieved, by Bishop who was also re- lieved by Scott. Langley caught for the local nine. Mayhan and Tom MbDaniel shar- Contractors Preparing To Start Work On Overpass L Coggin and Deermont, of Chipley, successful bidders for the contract . of building the overpass here have tiegun work on concrete forms and other materials at their plant in Ch)pley. Work was scheduled to begin the latter part of this month, and the Chlbley firm is making prepara- tions to begin work soon.

WILL CURB HOUSE FLIES Sanitary Land-Fill Program Begins In All of Gulf County Program Inaugurated Under State Insect Control Plan Gulf County's sanitary land fill is clearly marked for anyone to program got underway last week cud in the Port St. Joe area, when the first fill project was started. The land fill program is carried on jointly in Gulf County by the County, the city of Port St. Joe and the City of Wewahitchka all three participating in the opera- tion. The program is worked under the mosquito control program and receives a proportionate share of State funds for -its operation. The sanitary land fill method of garbage disposal is self-explana- tory by its title. Property is chosen by the Coun- ty sanitary department for filling. A large ditch is dug on the proper- ty by a bull-dozer belonging to the land-fil program. Garbage is dump- ed into the hole by the city gar- bage truck and it is packed down and covered with dirt by the land- fill program machinery. Toe system, provides for germ- free garbage disposal and, at the same time builds up land for fu- ture use. The garbage disposal method is especially designed to keep down the breeding places of house flies and other pests, with its land-build- ing program a secondary feature. The land-fill area serving Port ISt. Joe is on the Wewahitchka high- way with its entrance about 1000 yards before you get to the old dump entrance. The land-fill area Speakers 'Named.

Those using the fill are asked to dump their garbage to the front of the fill hole where the county ma- chinery will distribute it in the fill and pack it down and cover it ov- er with earth. This covering and packing service is carried on each week day morning to prevent pil- ing up of trash and breeding places for pests. People are urged not to dump their garbage along the road lead- ing to the fill. The old garbage dump formerly used by the city is now to be used by contractors hauling off debris from clearing lots, building waste and other trash of this sort.

TOO GOOD FOR US Sometimes, when we think of all the under- privileged generations, that have preceded ours in the long span of civilization we wonder whe- ther we are truly, deserving of the elegancies and refinements of this age in which practically everything has been thought of. Just take the latest as an example.* It's a gastronomic stroke that blends two time-hon- ored and widely-loved nutrifiers into something entirely new. You might call it a "Boiled Alas- ka", except that it's as uncomplicated as putting sugar in your coffee. All you do is take a bowl of hot cream of wheat and drop a dollop of ice cream smack in the middle of if. Personally, we go for strawberry ice cream in ours, but any kind is good, especially the fruit flavors. This is modern efficiency at its best. In fact i,t's just one step removed from automation. Through this startling invention you get sugar and .cream plus on your cereal in one move- raent. You will also find that the action that follows is speeded up considerably. In fadt, if this new breakfast tempo carries through the day as it might, due to added nu- trition we may get all the things done by quitting time that we always hope to dol THERE'S DAGGERS IN MEN'S SMILES Two foreign statesmen from opposite sides of the world, talking in Washington this week, gave Americans some sound and thoroughly qualified advice. .West Germany's indestructible Chancellor Adenauer, who was guest of honor at a press reception, told his hosts that the situation be- tween Russia and the free world is "very ser- ious"j He said he did not believe in a hot war, but that the "smiles" campaign is "more dan- gerous than the threat of war". "I firmly believe," he said, ",that nothing has changed. It makes no difference with a dicta- torship whether it is one man, three men or ten men. Every dictatorship negates justice law and liberty." 1'ii3 #tAAO OR 4T. JOLp QUlIP COUNTY, PO.RIDA __I ___m__ THURSDAY, JUN 20, 1688 Hollington Tong, Nationalist China's new s ambassador to the US, painted a picture of Red strongholds of Russia and "Peoples" China work- ing toward a joint industialigation that will make this vast, two-continent Communist domain the most powerful aggressive force the world has ever seen. "When that time comes," he told the National Press Club, "it will not be necessary for the Red combine to fight for Southeast Asia. A threat, a command, a telephone call will set knees quaking everywhere." In due course, the knee-quaking might even extend to those western nations that have been so eager to expand their Red China trade and thus speed the power build-up. But, more immediately, we can watch for Communist reaction to the joint communique issued by Chancellor Adenauer and Secretary of State Dulles. In it, they called upon the Soviet Union "to put an end to the brutal and unnatural division which it has imposed on Germany" so that the West might place more stock in Red promises. We should soon see whether the Kremlin is smiling or just laughing. ANYBODY OBJECT? A state governor who believes in getting to the heart of things once said: "Nobody ob- jects to high taxes except the people who have to pay them." We'll soo nsee whether he was right. Start- ing July 1 (if Congresional formalities are on schedule) the federal gas tax jumps to three cents per gallon. Purpose of the higher rate is to finance the national highway program there's been so much tub-thumping about. The motoring public has been exposed to plenty of pictures an stories about the "dream" highways this program is supposed to build. They haven't heard so much about the gas tax 4acrease that goes with it. When they buy gaso- line, on or after July 1, and find the tax rate has gone up another cent, they'll be face to face with stem reality. The ."dream" superhighways will be com- pleted far in the future. The higher gas tax will be with us here and now, and will stay with us for at least the next 16 years according to the plan. Furthermore, this federal gasoline tax is stacked on top of a high state gasoline tax. The two together make a very tall and ugly-looking totem pole. The federal tax cost of this highway pro- gram will top $38 billion. The gasoline tax part of it alone will be over $29 billion or about 77 percent of the total. If rM. Gasoline Con- sumer uses his vehicle just the average amount, he will shell out more than $860 in federal gas taxes alone over this program's financing period. How will he take this? It will be interesting gto see how folks react on July -1. What will they say when they drive into their favorite gas station and come face to face with a new tax on gasoline?

Highland View Church Sets Bible School The annual Vacation Church and Bible ,School for the Highland View Methodist Church, Highland View, will begin Thursday, July 12 and continue for seven days ending on Friday, July 20.

The sessions will btgin each morning gat 8:45 and will last until 11:15. The theme for the school this year in Methodism will be "The Bible". Each class will be studying some aspect of it with correlated activities. A class will 'be provided for beginners, primaries, juniors and intermediates.

I couldn't have gotten away with it if I had- L't taken the family with me. It was as a passenger on the "Queen of Nassau" operated by the Eastern Shipping Corporation between. Mii- caslon was a convention of the F'orida Press Association. Over 150 Florida publishers, their families and friends made the trip. We left Miami at 6 p.m., arriving in Nassau the next morning at 8 a.m. It was the first meeting of the association ever held on foreign soil. The boat served as our hotel during the week end excursion, which lasted from Friday evening the 15th to Monday morning the 38th. Weather was perfect and the sea smooth. Heavy ground swells dis- turbed the stomachs of a few folks, but everyone was up and ready to go when the boat docked. Native divers entertained the crowd, div- ing for coinats as we waited to dis- oibark, just as they do in Cuba and Jamaica.

It reminded me a bit of our own St. Augustine, and while, the Island is rich in historical interest, I would say that St. Augustine has much more to offer. Stores and shops with but few exceptions, lacked ap- peal. Poorly lighted and poorly ven- tilated, they contrasted forcefully with the pure air and farm sun- shine with which the Colony is blessed. I recall a similar situation in Ja- maica when I visited there a few years ago. Unlike the American American tourists spend most of their money in the liquor stores where some types of liquor are available at considerable discount. Various Scotchs, Canadian Club, rums, and gin are much cheaper than in the States, but those who prefer Bourbon find that prices are jast about the same as at home. home. I enjoyed visits to Nassau's two big tourist hotels. They were our hrsts for a cocktail party and a dinner while we were on the Island. The Royal Victoria and Emerald Beach hotels offer everything the visistor could ask for in accomo- clations, cuisine and service. all in perfect unison. It was truly the most amazing sight I have ever seen and my hat is off to Mr. Hed- ley Edwards, "The only man since Noah whose language is understood by the birds." -You will find a visit to Nassau in- teresting and enjoyable, and if you see nothing else while there but -the Springs for treatment of arthritis.
