3 Two Clinton girls recently at-
:«tended the National Junior A-
ijchievement convention inBloom-
-iington, Ind Matilda Williams, a
'i rising senior at Bell Street High
9 School, and Julie Young, a rising
r senior at Clinton High, attended

According to Frank Sailors,
■9 executive director of the Junior
? Achievement in Clinton, the girls
^ learned much about the work of
: other clubs. There were dis-
9 plays of the products manufact-
3 ured by some of these clubs and
•J seminars describing the projects
and activities of outstanding Jun
ior Achievements organizations
around the country. Sailors said
the girls were selected to attend
the convention because of their
outstanding work with the Clinton
organization.
Sailors explained that the Jun
ior Achievement program was
organized to demonstrate how the
financial system of the country
works. Miniature companies are
formed, officers are elected,
and a stock program is initiated.
Shares of this stock are sold to
Clinton area merchants and in
dustries. The companies actually
manufacture products and de
clare a dividend at the end of 30
weeks. The “companies’ in
Junior Achievement are assisted
by the Torrington Bearing Com-

Since both of these girls will
be back in high school this year,
Sailors feels that the program
will be much stronger Is it enters
its second year.
Rev. Setzler
Attends School
Of Alcohol Studies
The Reverend John L. Setzler,
pastor of St. John’s Lutheran
Church here in Clinton, was one
of 290 professional and non-pro
fessional persons who completed
the course of study last week at
the Ninth Annual Southeastern
School of Alcohol Studies at the
University of Georgia in Athens.
The school is open each year
to interestedpersons from the six
southeastern states composing
Region IV, U.S. Public Health
Service. The Southeastern School
of Alcohol Studies is planned to
meet the needs ofpersons who are
seeking a better understanding
of the many problems related to
alcohol and alcoholism.
The approach of the school is
an obvious attempt to follow a
person-centered approach, and
therefore does not dwell upon
such traditional areas of con
cern as the moral implications
of the issue. Using the insights
of, professionals in the field of
alcoholism from clinical chap
lains to psychologists and profes
sors in the field of medicine the
School states as its purpose’
. . .to offer a broad survey of
the many problems related to al
cohol and alcoholism and to sti
mulate those who attend to make
practical application in their own
communities of the knowledge
gained. * Those attending repre
sented all walks of life, but all
were admitted because of their
interest in persons' and the needs
of persons in their communities.

CARD OF THANKS
This little poem by an unknown
author expresses my sincere
sentiments to Doctor Blalock and
the entire staff of Bailey Me
morial Hospital and all of my
wonderful friends, much better
than I could.
A heart full of thankfulness,
A thimble full of care. . .
A soul of simple hopefulness,
An early morning prayer.
A smile to greet the morning,
A kind word as the key
To open the door and greet
the day,
What e’er it brings to me.
A patient trust in providence
To sweeten all the way. . .
All these, combined with your
tboughtfhlness
Have made brighter and hap
pier days for me.
Gratefully
Dollie M. Hill
