JOE, FLORIDA NUMBER 46 ETAOIN SHRDLU by Wh$LEY R. RAMSEY Guess 'about the best way to stop it from raining is to write a column about -how muoh rain we have had. A subject like that will' do it Every time. We have written several columns .on rain -and the day the paper came out it was bright and sun- shiny. A couple of years ago it snowed on press day. We wrote a column on the snow and when the paper went out it had disappeared. Chances are, you had rather see it stop raining for a while right now so we will contribute our part to see what we can do. How is a person going to pick * out dog: days this year? -Since summer has began, the 'weather hasn't been fit for a dog and it seems as how that is how you define dog day---that wea- ther not fit for dogs, that is. Coach ,Craig said this week that the awaited football season will start-as far as he and the play- ers are concerned-Monday. Port St. Joe people are a funny breed, and somewhat like bears. The bear goes into a hollow at the first sign of cold weather and hibernates. Port St. Joe people go into a hole at the end of football season and hibernate until the next whistle blows in the fall. It will be interesting to see the Sharks this year and to read about them in the daily papers. The dailies usually say that St. Joe will be loaded.

HARBOR BILL APPROVED BY HOUSE- SENATE APPROPRIATIONS COMMITTEE In a telegram to The Star Tuesday of this week, Florida's delegation to Congress advised that the joint Senate-House conferees agreed this week to retain the million dollar approp- riation in the public works bill for work on the Port St. Joe harbor. The bill,must now be approved by both the Senate and House and the bill signed by the President for the Port St. Joe money to be certain. However, the appropriation has now gone through several committees and has met approval in each. This gives almost a guarantee that the appropriation_ will go the ,ist of-thie ioute with the appropriation bill. The telegram was signed by Spessard Holland, George Smathers and Bob Sikes. Walter Wilder. Addresses Kiwanis Walter Wilder, a graduate of Port St. Joe High School and now a student at Sewannee, Tennessee University of -the. South, spoke to th- Kiwanis Club Tuesday about the university he is attending. Wilder said that the university he is attending is .the 17th in the nation in academic standing. The University is :small, having only about 600 students and *one of the largest campuses of any university in the nation. Wild,er spoke about the athletic program of the school which he says is one of the best in the South. Wilder had nothing but praise for the scholastic ability of the students at the school. "A good example is our football team, which is chock full of straight 'A' students aspiring to be lawyers, doctors, scientists, etc." Wilder told, of the program *of the school's football 'team in the last three years. The first year of the three year period the team won only one. game. The next year a new coach, Shirley Majors, came to Sewannee and the team began to win. Last year, 'the team went undefeated and were scored on by only two teams. "We win because we 'have a will to win and have the brainpower to maneuver", said Wilder., Wilder again emphasized that students at the school were intelli- gent and the athletes keep in good shape. Guests of the club was a inter- club relations team from Monticello composed of Ralph Norman, Lew Bebberd, John Large and Ray Simpson. Scout Master Calls Meet of Parents, Scouts Scoutmaster John T. Simpson announced this week that there will be an important meeting for all Scouts and their parents Thursday night at 8:00 p.m. at the Scout Hut. That is tonight. Scoutmaster Simpson says that the meeting will pertain to go- ing to the Jamboree in Colorado next summer. The meeting must be held now in order to register Scouts for the meeting. City Board Sets. Valuation Look-See The City of Port St. Joe Board of Commissioners will meet at the City Hall Commission Room to act as a Tax Equalization Board. The meeting is scheduled for 7:00 p.m. The meeting is being held so that all persons desiring to have corrections made in their tax valuations may be heard. Those requesting changes in their pro- perty valuation must present their request to the City on or" before the meeting Tuesday night. Commission Adopts Budget; No Objections Are Made School Board Asks Tax Hike County school taxes for next fis- cal year will be 2.375 mills more than last year, a Tuesday morning look at the budget proposed by the School Board reveals. The School Board met in regular session 'and 'heard budget recom- mendations from Superintendent of Public Instruction, Thomas A. Owens. During the course of the recommendation, much time was consumed digging into details .of anticipated revenue and expendi- tures. Tentatively the budget expendi- tures were 'set at $947,335. / It is not expected that the bud- get details, will be altered substan- tially between now and the time the budget is published as a legal advertisement. If there is no substantial altera- tion school millage in Gulf Coun- 'ty will be up 2,375 mills over last year's millage. For, after revenue from all sources is considered, to meet the balance proposed. it will be,necessary for the School Board to ask a levy of 10 mills in .the District, 10 mills in 'the 'county, and 2.125 mills toward retiring the 1952 school bond issue. Last year, district millage was 10 mills, county S8 mills, and bond issue 2.25 mills. Total for 1958- 1959 fiscal year: 20.25 mills. One mill brings .$12,1)0;, so the School Boarz& needs to raise,-'ap- proximately $267,712 in county tax- es if its budge its approved sub- stantially as it now stands. First Baptists Begin Revival Service Sunday Revival services will begin at the First Baptist Sunday and will continue through Friday of 'next week. Services are being held at 7:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m. Visiting evangelist for the ser- vices is Dr. Ray F. Robbins, pro- fessor of New. Testament at the New Orleans Baptist Seminary. The song services will be led by William Highbaugh, minister of mu- sic for the First Baptist Church in Panama City. -Rev. C. Byron Smith urges every- one who will to attend. The church nursery will be open to care for babies.

YOU may be surprised to learn that what is commonly called "athlete's foot" is a ringworm infection. These fungi-caused in- fections also occur on. the scalp, face, body and nails. In addition to causing great discomfort, they can be extremely embarrassing, especially on the scalp, where hair is usually lost in unsightly patches. Self-treatment with easy-to- obtain powders,' ointments and solutions is seldom successful, and can be dangerous, since you run the risk of irritating the infected area and possibly caus- ing a more serious infection. Medical examination should be had as soon as you contract one of these skin infections. One effective test the doctor has for determining the presence of fungus infection on the scalp is the Wood's light test, which is black light. In a darkened room and under this. light fungi will glow. The doctor now has available a a new antibiotic, Fulvicin, that clears up most of the ringworm infections in weeks to a few months, depending on type and severity. It is taken orally and like other antibiotics is available only' on prescription. In one case studied a 67-year- old woman who had ringworm of the scalp since she was seven was cured within weeks by the new drug. More boys than girls have scalp ringworm, probably due to their shorter hair, more contact during play and possibly barber's shears. It can also be picked up from the back of theatre seats, and certain forms are carried on dogs and cats. Athlete's foot is highly unpre- dictable and one should always take certain precautions to pre- vent it. Wear perforated shoes whenever possible, dry feet well and use a mild foot powder, never wear wet socks and it is best to wear cotton or wool socks, since they absorb perspiration better than the synthetic fabrics. If, despite your best precau- tions, you do get a ringworm infection, your doctor might pre- scribe the new antibiotic, made available by Schering Corpora- tion. This is the first successful oral treatment ever developed for superficial fungus infections. Fungi (which are microscopic plants) live on the keratiinin the dead cells of the skin. These dead cells are constantly being dis- carded, but the invading fungi somehow manage to stay on the skin.

BEST ROOM-Official dimen- sions reported, to A.M.A.* show that Chevrolet sedans offer more front seat head room than all but one of the high-priced cars-more front seat hip room (by up to 5.9 inches) than the "other two" of the leading low-priced three. ' BEST ENGINE-Chevrolet en- gines have long won expert praise from virtually every automobile magazine, and, just recently, Chev- rolet received the NASCARt Out- standing Achievement award for "the creation and continuing de- velopment of America's most effi- cient V-type engines." BEST ECONOMY-A pair of Chevrolet sixes with Powerglide won their class in this year's Mobil- gas Economy Run, topping every other full-sized car. And the win- ning mileage was a whopping 22.38 m.p.g. BEST BRAKES-Chevy's bonded- lining brakes are the biggest in their field, built for up to 66% longer life. In a direct competition conducted by NASCAR, Chevy out- stopped both of the other leading low-priced cars in a test of -re- peated stops fro,' highway speeds. BEST STYLE-It's the only car of the leading lwy-priced 3 that's unmistakably modern in every line. "In its price class," says POPU- LAR SCIENCE magazine, "a new high in daring saying." BEST TR -,.E-IN-Any N.A.DA.DA.t Guide Book can give you the figures on Chevy's extra value.

WARTS: A COMMON SKINDISORDER Warts are common skin dis- orders. They are small tumors on the skin, usually hard and believed due to a virus. Al- though warts often appear sud- denly, they may either disappear with equal suddenness or re- Smain indefinitely. They are not cancerous nor are they com-. municable from one person to another. A wart is an overgrowth cf skin cells and is usually the, same color as the rest of the 'skin. However, because of its rough and uneven surface, a wart collects and retains debris or dirt and for this reason appears darker than the surrounding skin. Warts are often unsightly but they are not painful, ex- cept those on the soles of the 'feet. A wart on the sole of the, foot, known as a plantar wart, is a common wart surrounded -by a corn. Because of ingrowth and pressure this type of wart is often painful. - There are several kinds of warts and likewise several kinds of treatment for their removal. Treatments include drying them up by the use of electrical cur- rent, caustics, dry ice, X-ray .and radium or removing them tby surgery. Warts can be diffi- 'cult to eradicate, depending on their location, typ-, size and [length of duration. Self-treat- ment with acids or other means is unsafe. A physician should be consulted to determine the best methodd for removal of warts. SISTER STARR SISTER STARR Western Auto Associate Store Home Owned By C. W.

THE PRICE OF PRESCRIPTIONS One reason why people may be surprised at the price of their pre- scription is because it isn't a regu- lar expense item like other (and often more expensive) items such as dinner out, auto repairs or clothes for the kids. Yet the sav- ings afforded in prevention of hos- pitalization or loss of job time more than make up for the price of the prescription.

Then he had to play the pioneer. Vic rigged up a tarpaulin and sailed his boat back to Port St. Joe because "that was the way the wind was blowing". By the time Vic got back to shore a storm had come up and the bay was too rough for small boats. An attempt was made to reach. the boys by Jeep around the beach but the weather was too rough. The boys just had to spend the night-along with Charlie and noth- ing to eat. It rained and it blew hard Fri- day night and everyone got fairly wet. " Th4 next mornflg tfhe bay was still r.ough but Vie persuaded a shrimp boat operator to cross and get the boys. They hadn't starved as they had caught some fish and ate them.

Fleming Is Low Bidder On New School Rooms Last Tuesday the Gulf County School Board let bids for construc- tion of new school rooms at Port St. Joe schools for a total of $73,- 809.00. Successful .bidder on .the two projects was Robert Fleming, con- tractor of Panama City.- Five firms bid for the contracts to construct a classroom for the George Washington Elementary School and a science classroom and Industrial arts shop at the Port St. Joe High School. On the classroom at Washington Elementary, Fleming bid $23,100. Next low bid was- submitted by Alex Caswell of DeFuniak Springs who bid $23,364. :,.. : On the science room and indus- trial arts shop Fleming bid $50,- 709 (including an alternate bid of $559.00 for some electrical work).
