Hnvv do you “babvproof” a home? Suzanne Simmons, 16, of
State College, Mississippi, says it involves removing every pos-
sible home hazard that might harm a baby. In this manner she
made her own home saf. r for her little brother and began a pro-
gram of safety projects that lifted her to national honors in the
annual 4-H safety competition.
Suzanne was selected as one of eight national winners of $500
General Motors scholarships for outstanding 4-11 farm, home and
highway sar projects. The winners also received all-expense
trips to the National 4-H Club Congress in Chicago.
Suzanne began her “babyproofing” project when her young
brother learned to turn the handles on the home’s gas space
heater. She repositioned the handles, placing them out of his
reach. Next, the national winner moved medicines, poisons and
sharp objects out of sight and reach. Among other precautions
was the placement of safety gates at the head of each staircase
in her home.
Suzanne’s safety demonstrations have won numerous awards
and include “Safe Toys for Children,” “The Invisible Passenger
—Carbon Monoxide Gas,” “Halloween Safety,” and “How to Use
a Fire Extinguisher.”
National 4-H winners were selected from a group of 44 state
safety- award winners. General Motors, now in its 20th year as
safety- awards donor, also gave state winners trips to the Club
Congress.
Other national winners include: Larry Roflee, 16, Wheatridge,
Colo.; Janis Lindsey, 16, Columbia City, Ir.d.; Maria Langlois, 16,
Green well Spring--, I.a.; Diane Barrigar, 17, Winthrop, N. Y.;

Turn off the motor when you are
in line with the working gulls. If
the birds are working with the ^
rent, anchor until the gulls alnl
reach you Then pick up anchor uno
drift along with the current and the
gulls, fishing all around the boat.
You'll find fishing good as long
as you don't make any noises to
spook the school. Of course, you may
also hook a seagull or two. They’ll
frequently grab your shrimp just
as it hits the water.
If you've ever had a gull grab
your bait and hook himself, you
know what you're in for. But for the
j benefit of those who have never
had the experience, let me assure
, you that a hooked gull can be a
rough customer.
You'll have a battle on your hands
trying to reel in a gull. Then when

all the time the gull will be scream-

To The Voters of Precinct No. 1
Your precinct commissioner can be helpful in bringing pros-
perity to freestone county.
He can dedicate himself and his time to the most economical,
canstructive and meaningful manner in which to help speed the
tax payers money.
I feel that a commissioner who represents Hie peoples interest
will most likely spend most of his time and work on the roads and
bridges of the bridges of the precinct, however, I feel that much
of your interest also lies in other valuable aspects of our com-
munities, our churches, our schools, and many other phases of an
enlightened and growing community.
The peoples interests come first with me. I would liko to work
with you honestiy and fairly. I would like to be your commis-
sioner.

We star in a laugh-packed tale that finds me, Charlie Weaver, panic-stricken
over a Mount Idy beauty who is “bit” by the love-bug and lured by the prom-
ised wealth of my antique shop.
The men of the family will aee on film and on display, what’s new from
John Deere for 1964. You’ll see the very latest in farm tractors, combines,
tillage equipment, pickers, the “110” Lawn and Garden Tractor, and a whole
parade of other equipment, brand new for 1964 — and built better for more
profitable fanning.
John Deere Day means fun for the whole farm family, and a complete pre-
view of “What’s Cookin’ at John Deere for ’64.”
