National Deify (mmII, Cku<|> A ( Millions of American families during these days of high living costs are in danger of being under-nourished, warns the National Dairy Council, because housewives are buying according to prices and not according to food values. They stay within budgets but may jeopardize family health. So here, says the Dairy Council, is its "Guide to Good Eating" ? a safe and sound nutritional guide, on which the council on foods and nutrition of the American Med ical Association sets its seal of acceptance. Eat these foods daily to get the basic nutritional requirements of your body, and then eat whatever other foods you want to give you that satisfied feeling. kins have opened their new tourist home, which is named River Rock Inn. It is located on Highway 64, on the Cullasaja river, almost opposite the "Lull water Place". A stretch of about two mile^ of road on Buck Creek, which was built by the Forest Service, is to be graveled by the state. For several years this connect ing link of improved road has been badly needed by mail car riers and others. This better road opens a section where ex cellent vegetables and delicious apples are grown. Walnut Creek needs four miles of road improved and hard sur- i faced to connect the wonder ful cabbage county of Hamburg in Jackson county with the gravel road which connects with Highway 64 in Macon. The route to Atlanta from Hamburg would be 22 miles shorter. Franklin could share in the business of supplying these farmers' needs. Two miles of road needs im proving in the Gold Mine area to have a hard surface road connecting Turtle Pond road with the Gold Mine surfaced toad. Walnut Creek and Buck Creek will be a more livable place, too, when power lines are erect ed. ..he's filling out his entry blank for the Pepsi-Cola 'Treasure Top' Contests ? it's a family affair and he's certainly one of the family." 0 Enter Pepsi-Cola's great $203,726.00 "Treasure Top" Sweepstakes and Contests.
