News Making Continued From Editorial Page selves. Surely, they must real ize that they themselves are only human too. 3. Certainly there cannot be a real faith for man without the recognition that there is a Supreme Being. From this Pow er it seems to me that man must, besides feeling a debt of gratitude, feel that he can ob tain the spark of faith. From that spark it is man's job to build a flame which will so light the world that each of us can see all our fellowmen for their true worth.

Jess L. and D. L. Rogers, both of Franklin, Route 2, were traveling toward Frank lin about 7:25, saw the impend ing accident and pulled to the side of the highway and stop ped, the officer reported. They said Mr. Led ford hesitated about the middle of the high way and then continued cross ing. Patrolman Ferguson said a member of the family said Mr. Ledford was unable to see more than about 50 feet and he "crossed (the highway) by sound". The critically injured man was rushed to Angel Hospital following the accident. He died about 1 p. m. Not To Blame A coroner's jury empaneled heard witness testimony and ruled Mr. Peek was not to blame for Mr. Ledford's death. Members of the jury were Homer Mashburn, John Cun ningham, Elbert Angel, Bill Bryant, Frank Shope, and Nor man Blaine. Bryant Funeral Home was in charge of arrangements. Pall bearers were the following nephews: Ross, Don, Gerald, Earl, Dewey, and Buell Ledford. No. 3 If he introduces such a bill, Mr. Houk said, it must provide for a vote of the people of the township. Since title to the hospital Is in a board of trustees, rather than a public body, there is a question, the Macon legislator said, whether it is possible to draw a bill that will be con stitutional. It might be neces sary to transfer ownership to the Town of Highlands or Highlands township for such a tax, even if approved in an election, to be legal. He will present the problem to the attorney general, Mr. Houk said, and Introduce such a bill, providing for a township . vote, if the attorney general I thinks it will stand up in the j courts. Mr. Houk revealed that, on two separate occasions, he voted against the milk bill, "for the reason I am opposed to any kind of price fixing". The mea sure, stripped of its most con troversial features, finally was passed. Mr. Houk said he thinks this county needs little or no local legislation, and that he is de voting his attention to state wide issues. The Macon representative is serving on 11 house committees. The seven more important ones are those on appropriations, ed ucation, judiciary (No. 1), prop ositions and grievances, salaries and fees, courts and judicial districts, and senatorial dis tricts. Boy Scout Quota Is 'Within Sight' The annual Boy Scout fund drive Is "within sight" of its $1,100 quota, Hunter Calloway, drive chairman, said this week.

Confederacy which now belongs to a Bermudian named Ernest Darrell. Ordered by Jefferson Davis, presi dent, of the Confederate States, the seal and its press were shipped to mid-Atlantic Bermuda, now a famed resort, for trans shipment to Wil mington, N. C. However, the origi nal press, a bulky iron affair prettily aecoratea witn nower engravings, could not be smuggled through the blockade so it was left in the care of the Confederate consul and later sold at auction. An exact replica of the seal is now with the press, although the whereabouts of the original is not known. It is hoped to secure the press and its duplicate seal for public exhibition in Bermuda. fNS I Look Your Best for EASTER Buy Your Home Permanents Now TONI LILT Only PROM 'Tax Included S & L 5 & 10c STORE $1.69 mACON'S Newest, Citizens Born t?: Mr. and Mrs. Bill Cansler, of 'Franklin. son.
