Value of Community
College Told Kiwanis

Tommy Smith, Superintendent c
Public Instruction. in Bay Count:
gave the Port St. Joe Kiwanis Clu'
an insight on the value of the Cois
munity College to this area at their
regular meeting Tuesday. ,
Smith declared that higher ed'u
cation is needed more, today thai
ever before. He pointed out the fac
that only one percent. of the na
tion's unemployed were skilled o:
.trained people. The remainder wer4
made up of unskilled and largely
uneducated people. He expressed
the opinion that within ten years
this nation will see a tremendous,
shortage of trained and skilled la
borers. He pointed out the fact thai
the armed forces are cutting dowr
-on unskilled people. They are nom
requiring high school educations
especially in the air forces.
'In meeting this need, Smith said
that the establishment of the Gull
Coast Community College had in.
creased enrollment in institutions
of higher learning by students from
this -area by over 15 percent.,
Smith said that the educational
opportunities offered by Florida's
junior colleges were equal to any
first two college years anywhere
in the nation. "We are in strictly
the education business", said
Smith. "No fraternities, no soror-
ities, no drinking problem, no ath-
letics to speak of, no on campus
living. Our students are right near
home for the parents to keep In
line, and the hours spent at school
are hours of strictly -learning". .
Smith expressed regret to the
Current hesitancy to provide the
necessary money for education. He
declared that it was dismal times
when people couldn't decide whe-
ther they wanted untaxed whiskey
or proper education. Smith declared
that -the people of the state and
nation were ahead of the Legisla-
tors in desiring the proper educa-
tion facilities and revenues. "The
people are ready to provide them,
while the Legislature hesitates",
said Smith.
Guests of the Club were Byron
Petty nad Harry Williams, both of
Panama City.

Judge W. L. Fitzpatrick Defends Wording

Of His Marriage Counsel Act To Rotary


- Judge Warren L. Fitzpatrick ad,
dressed the Rotary Club last
Thursday, defending his proposed
marriage counsel law that was de-
feated in the Florida Legislature
during its present session.
Fitzpatrick said he was" becom-
ing deeply concerned over the. in-
.security of American home's. He
pointed out that lie was in a posi-
tion to know the seriousness of the
problem, since half of his time was
taken up in riefereeing fights be-
tween married "people.
- Fitzpatrick .said that the broken
homes had a telling effect on the
children of the homes. "Out of-these
homes come most of our undesir-
able people", said the Judge..
Fitzpatrick said that on the ma-
terial sidee' these broken homes
were costing the tax payer dearly.
"A vast majority of tax money is
spent as a direct result of unhappy
homes", said the Judge. "Broken
homes creates juvenile delinquency
which takes tax dollars to fight
and judge. Broken homes put peo-
ple on relief rolls and create a
great majority of the criminals of
the nation. The good people of the
nation earn the money to pay the
taxes to take care of the undesir-
ables that come from these and
other bad environments", the Judge


and Utah. Fitzpatrick said the law
had cut divorces by one third in
these two states -and declared that
such a measure was direly needed
in Florida.
Fitzpatrick also stressed that all
young people about to be mar!e.t'
should be instructed on some -o
the problems of marriage prior tr.
the ceremony to forewarn them of
some of the troubles to come.
"If we can keep our homes strong
our nation will be strong", Fitzpat-
rick concluded.
Guests of the club were Truby

PLUS THE MAGIC BURNER THAT MAKES

EVERY UTENSIL AUTOMATIC
It' really magic, because the new LP-Gas ranges think-
actually make every pot and pan you own a modern automatic
appliance. No more burning, scorching, because they hold the
temperature you set.
As every woman knows, you just can't beat gas when it
comes to clean, closed-door broiling of steaks and chickens-
properly browned baked foods, roasts that are roasts, rare in
the middle, browned outside.
And new automatic controls act instantly to shut off the
flame if the pilot light should go out, to give you the safest,
most versatile, most dependable range you could imagine!
All this and far more is yours when you change to

hoofs. And there are still some of
these "cow towns". We have seen
fancy boots, costly silver-trimmed
saddles and bridles and other trap-
-pings of the swanky Texas cowmen
(and their imitators).
We understand that now and then
those who sit in the councils of
the ungodly may steal a calf and
get shot, but, as far as I can see,
wire fence has cut up the open
range (that is, in '60,000-acre lots)
and the bovine population is pret-
ty well under control'.
I could go on and on about what
Texas produces, but have to cover
a number of other states But,
anyway, Texas is so big (outside
of Alaska) that even it's own peo-
ple can't see it as a whole, although
a great part of them with whom
we have talked fly their own
planes to get from-here to there a
bit faster. Those who stick to land


tor Ramsey-or a year's walk for
me-but if water could be put on
this country is would produce any-
thing If Texas ever produced
to, capacity the remainder of the
country could sit back and relax.
Now, to get back to Las Cruces
-this is a pedestrian's paradise.
Every other block the pedestrian
has the right of way-the motorist

The national Association of Life
Underwriters announce the forma-
tion of an Association in Port St.
Joe.
The primary purpose of the As-
sociation is to put and keep the
life insurance on a higher plane
by the setting and keeping of high-
er ethics of the agents with var-
ious companies so that they may
better serve the insuring public
In the organizational meeting
C. B. Greif, Jr., of Gulf Life was
elector president; Troy Hall of In-
dependent Life, vice-president; R.
W. Kelley, of 'Indepenident Life,


THURSDAY, May 28, 1950


Secretary-Treasurer; J. D. Clark,
Peninsular Life, membership chair-
man.
At a luncheon meeting held Fri-
day, May 15, Mr. Krost, manager
of the Life of Georgia incoming
president of the Panama City As-
sociation was guest speaker. His
topic was "How to better serve our
policy-owners by belonging to the
National Association of Life Un-
derwriters, and the responsibility
of the individual agent to belong to
it." "If an agent does not belong
to the Association he should not be
in the life insurance profession",
was the way he put it. "Ask your
insurance agent if he is a member
in good standing with the Associa-
tion and ask to see his member-
ship card. If he does not belong to
it, get him to join, it is for your
serVice and protection of Mr. Poli-
cyowner."
Also at the luncheon meeting was
Jessie V. Stone, of Stone's Shop
for Men who contributed a beauti-
fulbaport shirt as a door prize which
was won by B. A. Collier of the
Metropolitan Life.
The next meeting for the Assoc-
iation is scheduled for June 18 in
the City Cafe at 12 noon. All life
insurance agents are invited and
urged to attend.
