Byron Smith, pastor of the First Baptist Church of Port St. Joe was the guest speaker at the Rotary Club Thursday. With PIrt St. Joe being in the midst of the nation-wide Church Attendance Crusade, Rev. Smith urged the Rotarians to make time for God. "First", said Smith, "we should recognize God as God and realize that we can make no excuses to Him". Smith said that one of the favorite excuses for everyone was "I'm too busy", when asked to do something -for their God or their Church. "This excuse isn't good enough", said Smith, "A person can usually find the time to do what he wants to -do". Smith urged that Rotarians take time for the things of God, "while you yet have a choice". Rev. Smith told the group, "You can take your riches to Heaven with you. You must leave your money and property, but riches pil- ed up by taking time for God and His work, will go with you to hea- ven." Smith urged that the group use the time of the Crusade from Jan- uary 1 to Easter Sunday to acquire the habit of -taking time -for God and going to his house to worship. Guests of the club were Frank Graddy of Wewahitchka, Ed Ath- ens and R. E. Linenkohl of Jack- sonville.

Tyndall Operation Told To Kiwanis iLt. Albert Audette of Tyndall Air Forve Base presented a timely program to the Kiwanis Club at their .regular meetii.ng Tuesday. Lt. Audette dwealt on the subject of the purpose of Tyndall AFB in the nation's air defense. (Lt. Audette said that Tyudall has a three-fold job: -that of evaluation of pilots; training of radar per- sonnel and training of maintenance people in the maintenance of advan- ced: machines. Tyndall has'as its primary pur- pose, keeping experienced pilots proficient in the use of the latest models in aircraft and, their wea- pons. Tyndall introduces fighting men to new weapons and instructs in their use. Radar personnel is very impor- tant in -the use of the latest air- craft. By radar the pilot is guided to the target and his weapons sight- ed on the enemy by radar and the firing range computed by radar. At Tyndall, men .are trained to oper- ate these guidance machines. Lt. Audette stressed their importance by pointing out that when a pilot sees anything from the new speedy aircraft, it is too late to 'do any- thing, so he hias to have advanced radar "eyes". 'New aircraft :mean new mainten- ance problems. The very nature of the new aircraft being so fast and intricate makes special problems in maintenance. Tyndall -trains main- tenance personnel the problems of the new aircraft and how to fix them. Men at Tyndall train by doing. A high-flying, fast drone is sent up and picked up -by the trainees on their radar. The pilots intercept the drone and shoot it down. As to weapons, Lt. Audette said that -the later model aircraft use missiles, and rockets almost ex- clusively. "The day of the dog fight is gone", the Lieutenant said, "and 'bullet shooting guns are practically a thing of the past in our modern air force." Guests of the club from the Port St. Joe High School Key Club were 'Edward Smith and Clifford Wim- berly. GO TO CHURCH SUNDAY NEW CHAMEBR OF COMMERCE OFFICERS-S. L.

THURSDAY, JANUARY 15, 1959 Founding Fathers Wisely Left Editors The Task of Deciding What To Publish State Sen. Harvie J. Belser of our neighboring 3rd Senatorial District, who penned potshots at the state administration during most of 1958, has broadened the attack to include the newspapers serving the rural-type counties. That, we presume, includes us. ". .. I hope," he said in a postscript in a letter to one of his constituents, "that some day that the newspapers in these rural counties will keep the merchants and other citizens of the counties up to date on legislation passed at each session of the Legislature in order that their subscribers will have some idea of what is going on in the legislative field. "The mere printing of marriages, divorces and births is not fulfillment of the right and privilege accorded the press under the United States Constitution. These papers owe the citizens more than that. "They also owe the citizens more than 'warped', unintelligent and one-sided views on governmental matters ." Let us be the first to acknowledge the shortcomings of the press, and not only just the weekly or rural press, in coverage of legislative news. Few of us have the staff, space or facilities for interpreting, digesting and publishing the thousands of words the legislators some of them lawyers -- write into law each session in Tallahassee and Washington. Such efforts in the past have been self-defeating. Few sub- scribers, readership surveys have shown, have demonstrated an interest in such instruction. They had rather read about mar- riages, births and other local happenings. As for "fulfilling any right and privilege accorded the press under the United States Constitution," we don't recall any right -- except the freedom being extended the press in that in- strument. Nor do we recall any privilege. Instead, the found- ing fathers wisely provided for a free press and left it to the individual editors and publishers the ask of deciding what to print. For nearly 200 years, the nation's editors and publishers have done what we'd call a fair to middlin' job. We're willing for history to speak for itself on that score. As for the implication that this area's newspapers are pro- viding their readers with warped, unintelligent or one-sided views on governmental matters, we presume that what the sen- ator really meant is views that disagree with his own. We, there- fore, wonder if the senator considers the views he himself holds to be the only straight, intelligent and two-sided views. Until we find someone willing to share with us a monopoly on wisdom, righteousness and intelligence, we propose to continue printing our own views, just like we've always done, and we pro- pose to print the news in the same way. When it becomes neces- sary for us to'depend on someone else to tell us what is warped, unintelligent or one-sided, we'll be ready to follow an example once set by the senator, by announcing that we're quitting and going home. Then well quit. -- Washington County News Americans Not Very Hospitable Although we have never been abroad, we read enough to know that the most distinguishing feature of the American to the European is his brashness. No one has to wonder what an Ameri- can thinks about a matter. Perhaps that is why we are continually fighting a defensive battle on the counsel table front. Americans have again let their brashness show in their' re- ception of Russian Deputy Premier Mikoyan. While on the sur- face the Russian has received a hearty welcome and a free rein in his inspection of how Americans live, he has been instructed in no uncertain terms that is not liked because he is a Russian. We can't help but believe that this is what Mikoyan and the Russian leaders want. American visitors to Russia get the friendly VIP treatment and Russian visitors to the U. S. get the rotten egg treatment. One will get you 10 that upon his return home, these photos of hostility and threatened bombings and other acts of violence will receive lead story, page one in Russia with the caption, "See! we told you America was a war-mongering nation they hate you. There is no chance of friendly relations with a nation that acts like this". And again, it is not a very friendly way for a Christian nation to treat an athiest. Not very good advertising at all.

Local Medical I *'ciey.D TETANUS: EASIER TO PREVENT THAN CURE The old idea that a puncture wound from a rusty nail is- the ma. ' jor cause of tetanus, or "lockj%" is a slight misconception. Tetarnu may develop from almost any scratch or wound from many sources such as nails or other sharp metal, glass or wood objects, thorn.; and animal bites. Children, farmers, ranchers, dairymen, gardeners and any persons whose activities bring them into contact vwth puLsibly con- taminated soil run the risk of ex- posure to these dangerous bacteria. The germ which causes tetanus- the clostridium tetani-produces one of the most powerful poisons known. The germ is found in soil contain- inated by the body wastes of cattle, horses and other animals. It is what is called: an: anaerobic organism, which means that it thrives in the absence of air. Thus when it is in- troduced beneath skin so wounded as to close off the air and also is hard' to clean, conditions.are perfe. i for its development. The toxin or poison produced by the germs affects nerve tissue throughout the body. In untreated .cases, death may come in as short ,a period as four days from exhaus- tion, heart failure or -suffocation caused by painful involuntary tight- ening of the muscles. If the patient can be carried through the tenth lay, about 50 per cent recover. Tetanus is considerably easier to prevent than cure. If you have re- ceived a skin puncture, it is impera- tive that you see your physician at .once. He w`; cleanse the wound pr.,ilLrlv and decide whether or not to administer tetanus toxoid or an- titoxin. It is well to remember con- stantly that any minor injury could be the site of a tetanus germ. after atts9rumenan of 898 m Camn Big Only A Lin Sho Notice of Annual Membership Meeting The annual meeting of mem- bers of' Citizens Federal Sav- Ings and Loan Association of Port St. Joe will be held Wed- nesday, January 21,; 1959 at 2 p.m. EST, in the office of the Association, Port St. Joe, Flor- ida fo.r thel purpose of elect- ing Directors for the ensuing term, and to transact any oth- er business which may legal- ly come before said meeting.
