Jester. That ceremony took place
on the Shivers farm near Wood-
ville.
"The seriousness of our situa-
tion," the Governor told the inaug-
ural committee, "is emphasized by
the president's action. As we con-
centrate upon essential elements
of an all-out mobilization effort,
an elaborate inauguration would be
out of place,"

Inauguration of
Governor Jan. 16
A simple "swearing-in cere-
mony" at Austin January 16, will
start Gov. Allen Shivers on his
first full term in the state's high-
est office.
The Governor will take the oath
of office at noon that day on the
front steps of the state capitol.
It will be administered to both
Shivers and Ben Ramsey, Lieut-
enant-governor elect, by J. E.
Hickman, chief justice of the state
supreme court. Both Shivers and
Ramsey will make brief inaugural
addresses.
The only state function to be
held in connection with the inaug-
uration is a reception at 7 p. m.
in the capitol rotunda, where the
public Will have a chance to meet
Shivers, Ramsey and other state
officials.
No inauguration invitations are
being sent out, as a result of the
Governor's request for a simple
ceremony.
Because of the international sit-
uation, Gov. Shivers asked the Citi-
zen's Inaugural Committee to aban-
don plans for the usual elaborate
festivities normally scheduled for
a Governor's inauguration.
"In view of the president's pro-
clamation of a national emer-
gency," Governor Shivers told the
committee, "I feel it advisable
that the inauguration be limited
to a simple oath-taking ceremony.
I know that all of you will join
with me in the thought that we
should devote all of our energy to
the solution of the grave prob-
lems we now face."
The inaugural committee had
made detailed plans for a long
parade, a reception, six balls and
other pagenantry in connection
with the inauguration. About 20,-
000 engraved invitations were to
have been sent out.
Thus, for the second time, Shi-
vers will take the governor's oath
of office without fanfare. On July
16, 1949, he was sworn in as suc-
Atlanta Boy Scouts
to Meet Today
The District Committee for Cass
county Boy Scouts will meet at
7:30 p. m., at Brown's Drive-In,
in Atlanta, Thursday, Januaryll.
This meeting will be devoted to
training of the new committee
members and making plans for the
coming year.
Mr. W. "Tolland" Meredith
of Atlanta is District Chairman
for 1951. He said that he hopes to
have a great year in Boy Scouting
in 1951. Among plans being work-
ed up for the year are: A Scout
Master's training course; organiza-
tion of units in Atlanta, Queen
City, McLeod, Marietta, Hughes
Springs and Panhandle, as well as
a great year of camping at Camp
Pioneer and a trip to Northern
Minn, and Canada for older boys.
The District Committee is com-
posed of W. T. Meredith, Kelly
Arnold, Ed Bluestein, August
Brabham and Dr. E. W. Grumbles
all of Atlanta, O. L. Fisher of
Douglassville; Fred Allen, Mon-
roe Allen and Charles Elrod of
Linden; H. V. Avinger of Hughes
Springs; and W. G. Shubmen of
Bloomburg.
Also exempted from this Jan-
uary registration, Gen. Wakefield
pointed out, are those physicians,
dentists and veterinarians who reg-
istered under the medical draft'
I law on October 16.
Less than 750 physicians, den-
tists, and veterinarians registered!
in compliance with the law on Oc-
tober 16. This figure exceeded j
state Selective Sen-ice expectations
he said. Only those educated at J
government expense or who were
deferred to complete medical train- |
ing were required to register in
October.
i There are approximately 10,000!
doctors, dentists, and veterinarians '
! in Texas. When the January regis-
tration is complete, about 8,250 of
them are expected to be on local
"board records, General Wakefield
said.
Cass and Marion county physi-
cians, dentists and veterinarians
will register on January 15, if un-
der 50 years of age, and it is ex-
pected that there will be approxi-
mately 10 from both counties to
register.

It would seem a little bit ridiculous to nc:vo tr.o
air in your automobile tires checked several
times a day. In the natural gas business,
though, pressures are reported hourly on
thousands of miles of pipe lines. Our employees
work around the clock to maintain the pres-
sures required to assure dependable supplies
of natural gas to some 400 communities and
over 2,000 industries in the Gulf South. Mcir.y
of those industries are producing the materiel
which will help to safeguard our own and oilier
free nations. We believe it is our No. 1 job to
keep them supplied with fuel, to the er.d that
a lasting peace may be won for the wot id.

Doctors To Register
January 15
State Selective Service headquar-
ters expects about 7,500 doctors,
dentists, and veterinarians to reg-
ister under provisions of the medi-
cal draft law on January 15.
Brig. Gen. Paul L. Wakefield,
state Selective Service director, es-
timated that about 10 times the
number registered in October will
register in January.
The slate Selective Service dir-
ector said that his estimate was
based on information received from
Major General Lewis B. Hershey,
national director, and Mr. Todd
Bates, executive secretary of the
state advisory committee created
under the medical draft law.
All physicians, dentists, and vet-
erinarians who have not reached
their fiftieth birthday on January
15, except members of the regular
or reserve components of the arm-
ed services, are required to regis-
ter on January 15.

Cull or write your nearest Southwestern

home service counselor. These ladies are
trained and experienced in electric
kitchen planning. This service is free. We
invii-o you to call on us for this service

P
lan now for that all-electric kitchen. You'll be surprised how
fast your dream can come true. Most homemakers can't install a
complete electric kitchen all at once. But by having a plan of
installing one appliance now, and another six months or a year from
now, you'll have that electric kitchen before you know it. Many
homemakers have such a plan and before too long they'll be able to
say too of their kitchen, "Of course it's electric."
For convenient, comfortable and economic living begin early in
1951 to plan for an electric kitchen. Remember electric service still
comes to you at the same low price—the biggest bargain in your
cost-of-living expense.
