THE CHEROKEE SCOUT and CLAY COUNTY
PROGRESS
Letters To The [ditor
Dear Editor:
Clay County has recently
received a grain from the
government in the amount of
$102,000.00 lor the improve
ment and aid of our elemen
tary schools. Needless to say,
especially those of us with
school children, we encourage
and support all improvements
in our schools. The improve
ment was made in the form
of additional personnel.
However, 1 question the pro
cess by which the personnel
for the 22 full time and 4
part time positions were sel
ected. No doubt the people
selected are qualified to
assume these positions but my
complaint is that the majority
of those employed are either
wives or relatives of people
in the Department of Educ
ation. This writer inquired of
our Superintendent of Schools
as to the exact figures but
was told he "didn t know".
1 propose that these pros
pective openings should have
been made public, applications
taken Irorn anyone interested
in applying and selections
made from those with highest
qualifications. There are sev
eral of our recent high school
graduates who drive to Mur
phy every day and are wasting
their education operating a
sewing machine. These bright
young minds would have been
an asset to our children.
As most Clay Countians are
aware this type of discrimin
ation isn't new here. Is it to
be the rule always? If so, what
incentive do our youngster:
have to plan to remain in
Clay Count)/ or why should the
adults go to adult educations
classes at rnght if they are
never to be considered for
any position within their ia
pabilities.
The question m point is:
Is the Board of Education in
terested in using these funds
made available to us for im
proving our school system or
increasing the income of .b
own families."

Dear Editor:
Last Christmas Day a mem
orial service for the late Rev.
W. Thomas Iruett was held at
Hoepwell Baptist Church
where Mr. Truett had pre
ached on this same Day for
over thirty years. It was an
impressive and inspirational
service, presided over by
Mrs. Myrtle Moore, a long
time friend of the Truetts.
At this meeting we felt it
altogether fitting arid proper
to elect a committee, empow
ered to solicit funds and to
purchase a respectable mon
ument for him and his late
wife. This committee pre
sently is composed of Mr.
Randall Mundy, Mr. Frank
Howell, Mrs. Nellie Curtis,
and Everett R. White , Tre
asurer.
This committee has rece
ived to date of this writing
one-hundred fifty dollars and
three cents, banked to The W.
Thomas Truett Memorial
Fund. A beautiful blue gra
uite stone, normally 10 I.:
six lo bcvcii hundred dollars,
has been contracted tor and
*s nearmg completion at a co t
of four hundred eighty seven
dollars and seventy-five* cut
$4d7.75) Unlading two Uic

married by bun, friends of
hi , and fellow Mason to

Ihe W. Thomas 1 ruett Mem
orial Fund to help those wfio
fiave already givengenerously
in this worthy undertaking.
I his is an act of love, re
spect, and memory of one who
gave his life singing, praying
visiting the sick and sinful,
teaching, evangelizing, and
pa storing for over fifty year .

little, and in many cases, tk
remuneration. (Jan we afford

Dear Doris
Advice from
Dor is C lark
His Wife s Boyfriend
DLAK DORIS My wife
works in another town and
boards there during the week
Her boyfriend works in the
same place and they go back at
nights in the car and slay until
very late Also they have the
lw . rooms upstairs in the board
ing house to themselves and
there is nothing to slop I hern
visiting one another in the
n ight
She always tells me what a
nice guv he is I think they are
-ing the limit now Doris
What I am afraid d is if 1 say
anything she will tell me to
rtund rny own business I don't
war.I 1" fight w.lh her
J .e
1)F \K JUt :t anything in
the world j- y.iur io-iiii-s> this
in She dares >? u '? ask about
it knowing !...w little >:iu want
to fight
Stiffen your spine and assert
yourself Insist on her return to
a job where she i an come home
every single night Then meet
the competition by learning
more about Sex in Marriage I ni
sending you a list of btioks
about it
DEAR DORIS I love m>
school work loo much Just
about everything I do revolves
around rn> making something of
myself I revel in mv classes anil
absorb every word I adore my
teachers of science and tr> to
mold myself after them for I
feel that 1 would deeply desire
to follow science as my career
My problem is that I d love to
have fun and friends but fear
that my marks would drop rap
idly if I started to follow the
crowd True. I am modern to
some extent ] try new hair
styles follow clothes trends, use
make up. do the new dances, but
I lack the most important ob
ject. a mind full of fun loving
ideas
Whether to open up my mind
to the people or to remain sol
emn as befits my nature for the
last 17 years because of my love
for knowledge'' Why can't 1
have both"* Is it just that 1 dor. 1
have it in me'' I also like t<.
read, and 1 keep guppies and
turtles and raise plants So
that's how I fill in my extra
time, that by rights should go to
socializing
Anti-Social
DEAR ANTISOCIAL You
can have t>olh Help your?elf'
Just because the Lord ha*
given you an extra good brain l*
not to say you have been ?hort
changed in sociability We live
in a world of people, and part of
your education is to practise
getting along with them
He arrange your time table
and your inclinations to include
tune with fun loving friends
You'll learn and come to love
1)1 AR DORIS 1 was born
in Kngland Children here
teased me about my English ac
ient I am reasonably good look
irig intelligent and clean
Now 1 am at a high school
where 1 am not only unpopular
but also other kids do not like
to sit next to me School is a
form of torture to me
Please tell me how to get a
belter reputation around the
-; hi11 and how to make friends
before it is loo late 1 have a
middle aged neighbor who is
some kind of social worker
Should 1 speak to her^1
Unwanted
[)f \K I N WANTED ? Could
.1 be that the English accent,
plus your shy ways are mis>ak
en for stuck up-ness? By all
means ask your sort-of social
worker neighbor about it
My leaflet, "Don't Be Shy,"
was written for people like you
who find it hard to make
friends I'm sending you a copy
i and this leaflet is available to
any reader writing in, enclosing
ten cents and a stamped envel
ii oe i
DEAR DORIS Is it right
fur a grandmother to have a
shower for her daughter's baby"*
M> daughter has no sisters or
close relatives to give her a
baby shower and I knew she
would be quite disappointed not
to have one
Mother Of One
DEAR MOTHER ? Not a
shower That would be just as
improper as giving your girl a
wedding shower No relative
should do this it's too much
like holding your own hand out
for gifts
But a good fnend could do it
And you could very' nicely have
a reception or tea for your
daughter and her baby, shortly
after she brings him home
