The Clarke County Tribune from Quitman, Mississippi • 10

THE CLARKE COUNTY TRIBUNE, QUITMAN, MISS. FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 1978 flnDr Tito CI nth rtf! Jin By: Mary June Reese V7' Cru r0r 1 rijn What a beautiful sight! My hands and nails are purple, but unbowed. All the nickes and imperfections are neatly etched in indigo, and I'll probably wear the sign for a week for even Comet and polish remover failed to get but a little off. And even if it is nearly 2:00 a.m., I think it was worth it. Squeezing juice from seuppernong and muscadine grapes that is.

ready to make good grape jelly in a day or two. And what a truly beautiful sight they were, hanging in golden and violet clusters among the green grape leaves, on rows and rows of vines in the late afternoon sunshine. Never have we seen this many growing lines of grape vineyards in any part of Mississippi or our Southland. The place was the Mat her farm and fields of grapevines at Matherville. My old friends.

Mary Clair and Pouga! Carmichael. called me to let me know they were ripe. We had missed seeing them before this year. So Sunday afternoon, with Andy and Hank in tow. we went to Mary Clair's home to find them.

She graciously ante ith us to show the way and help us pick. Mr. Mathers came out to speak and welcome all who came to gather the delicious fruit. The boys and I squealed at finding each new row hanging neckoningly ahead of us. We picked and.

of course, ate them until filled. When we went o.icis to weigh them and pay Mr. Mathers, we were glad he didn't weigh us too! His large white brick home is Lively and the lakes and lawn so attractive around it. We saw several other new-homes on the way out and back; and as we passed the lovely old amibellum home we knew as the Cross Home, we were startled to see several peacocks and hens dash ahead of us across the road. It all made a day to remember.

On Saturday we were delighted with a visit from Mrs. Lelia 1 Rhodes! Hamruk of Meridian. She was on her way to the Rhodes home place across the river. She was raised there and is a sister of Leon Rhodes of Natchez and wife Ruth (Boykin) whom we have known for many years. Mrs.

Hamrick is also a friend of other Meridian friends: Clonie McNeal, Attey Pippen and Carmichael. She told of Mrs. McLadden's early automobile -one of the first in this area. If it was heard coming by the girls as they rode horses, they quickly dismounted, reined the horses to the nearest tree and got out of the way, as the loud noise of the auto frightened the animals. Monday I stopped at Johnny and Gloria Shirley's on 45 a scene of the terrible fire on Saturday which completely distroyed their beautiful, newly remodeled and rebuilt home.

It is heart breaking to see what can and did happen so quickly. Only some miraculously saved pictures show the rooms and lovely furnishings as they were completed. They have our deepest condolences and our prayers for each one in their loss. Harvey Shirley and family of Meridian, Brenda and Buddy Williams of Quitman and many other friends were stopping to express feelings. Mrs.

Ed Shirley said she and Mr. Ed had been married in the house and she had lived there as a girl. Mr. Ed and I were reminesing over our days of Welfare and Court Work, and over his days as a truly good baseball star for Jones Jr. College, Mississippi Normal College, Milsaps and (Me Miss.

He is on record as pitching two no hit. no run games which is quite a life time record! Surely hated to miss the P.T.A. Parent Teacher Association council meeting last night, but I am ready to help on any membership drive to parents to see the need for joining and (aiming to the meetings and taking on active part. Know some parents have waited long to see this group organized. All Junior High parents are urged to meet their child's principals and teachers at the High School auditorium on Thursday, Sept.

These courses will be available for students who have completed the junior college program at Patrick Henry or a comparable program elsewhere. Dr. Green pointed out that those seeking a degree from LU in business administration or accounting now have the opportunity to complete their work at the Gilbertown Center. These programs include a business admini st ration degree with a minor in either economics or accounting, or a degree with a composite major in accounting.

When requirements are successfully completed, the students will receive his bachelor's degree from Livingston L'niversity. Students seeking a degree in elementary education with a concentration in Early Childhood Education can complete most of the requirements at the Patrick Henry Center, but must still spend two or three quarters on the LU campus and one quarter in the field as a student teacher. Dr. Green stated, "While it is a trial program we are excited about this cooperative effort and we hope that enrollment will develop at the levels necessary to enable us to offer it on a sustained basis." He went on to point out that the program also will be subject to review by the Alabama Commission on Higher Education. "The program is designed to serve areas which are now utilizing the resources of the Patrick Henry facility at Gilbertown and is designed primarily to serve those who, because of responsibilities to their family, employment, finances or other reason, cannot come to the Livingston campus," he said.

Dr. Murphy, Patrick Henry president, joined Green in the announcement and said, "We are pleased to be a part of this effort to further meet the educational needs of our area, and through cooperative efforts of this kind we can achieve the fullest possible utilization or our educational resources. I am excited by both prospects, and I believe this is the beginning of a new demision of service to both Patrick Henry Junior College and Livingston University." LU will provide the faculty for the advanced courses utilizing either regular or adjunct faculty from the University. LU and Patrick Henry officials are also hoping our feedback from the students after the program gets under way so that data may be gathered as to what courses and programs the students want, to be offered at the center.
