Rules on alcohol may change

But city manager
says proposals won't
be as far-reaching
as they appear
By Jo Ross'
Proposed changes to city alcohol
ordinances have caused a stir in

Jasper. However, City Manager Lar-
ry Cail says the proposals weren't
what he had in,mind and will them-
selves have to be revised before the
city council acts on them.
The first proposed change con-
cerns city Ordinance 4-2, which gov-
erns operating hours of establish-
ments that sell alcoholic beverages.

The ordinance currently reads as
follows: "No alcoholic beverage may
be sold, consumed or served in a
place of business ... between the
hours of 12:00 midnight, and 7:00
a.m., of the following day; not be-
tween the hours of 12:00 midnight
on Saturday and 7:00 a.m. of the fol-
lowing Monday."

A proposed change would allow
alcohol to be sold seven days a
week, including Sunday, except dur-
ing the hours of 1 a.m. through 7
a.m.
The second proposed change con-
cerns Ordinance 4-3, which regu-

"The consideration for

School is out' and there will be more children
around so PLEASE BE CAREFUL. Let's make it a
safe and happy summer. I was terribly shocked a
couple of Sundays ago to see on the front page of the
Florida Times Union of an accident where I think
there were six young students (middle school) in a
horrible accident, they were skipping school, three
were killed, I think three others seriously injured, in
critical condition, only one escaped serious injuries,
he was the driver (underage with no licensed driver
in the car) and he had on a seat belt. Have not heard
any more as I do not get a paper every day, but
many lives were affected forever, do not let this hap-
pen to our community.
First Presbyterian Church had Bible School week
before last, it was a success, as it always is even if the
numbers are small, those who participate had a
good week. Penny Mickler was the superintendent
and had great helpers, I would hesitate to name as I
would be sure to leave someone important out, as all

doubt about e, events and institutions in gener-
al. You can almost se the blinders that they're wear-
ing.
I see some encouraging signs of activity here in
White Springs and I hope that they continue. One of
them is the Saturday Morning Farmers Market, at the
Nature and Heritage tourism center. These folks are
off to a good start with a good variety of vegetables,
some treats such as chocolate truffles and boiled
peanuts and a variety of split wood for your back-
yard smoker including pecan, oak and maple. For
the gardeners, there was a nice variety of ornamental
plants and one vendor was even selling some exotic
fertilizer called "Alpaca Gold." I'm told there will be
fresh seafood this week. If you want your local Farm-
ers Market to succeed, come on out this Saturday
morning and check it out!
I've heard some rumors that noted folk artist Janet
Moses is considering a move back to White Springs.
I admit to being skeptical when I first heard about it,
* and she's not back yet, but I sure hope she's coming.
Janet! White Springs needs folks like you and we
will do all we can to help you succeed, so come on

who were in attendance were important. Haven't
gotten a report from First Baptist yet, also want to
get a report on the hiking trip. I get a bulletin from
First Baptist, I am going to need to get someone to
help me get back on Adobe so I can receive the
newsletter on line. Would love to get a report from
New Hope as they are having Bible School. this
week, and Calvary. Jasper Presbyterian also had the
annual summer picnic at the home of Margaret and
Jerry Lewis on Sunday of last week, the usual deli-
cious-hamburgers, hot dogs, watermelon and of
course corn on the cob, surely did miss Dr. Billy
Mitchell, he loved the corn so very much.
Joe and Ramona Sunday are spending the week
with family, Bill and Penny Mickler, Abby and
Joseph. Haley Sunday, daughter of Peimny's brother,
Jamie Sunday, came with her grandparents to enjoy
a visit with Abby and Joseph. Bill and Penny, Abby
and Joseph just returned from ,a visit with Penny's
brother, Joey Sunday, in Atlanta, where they saw the
Braves, play, visited Sun Bank Natural History Mu-
seum and Atlanta Aquarium and .did many fun
things in the Atlanta area.. We heard on television

The Stephen Foster Citizen Support Group (CSO)
held its board meeting last Monday. It's Budget
Time! While the word "budget" strikes fear into
some folks, the CSO has had a pretty good year and
is in a position to be very supportive of the Foster
Park for the next year. As CSO President, Khrys
Kantarze is doing a great job and has a supportive
and active membership along with a committed
board of directors. Why do they do it? Its needed,
it's rewarding, it's enjoyable and at times it's just
plain fun! Last Friday I hand delivered a CSO grant
application to the Department of Cultural Resources
in Tallahassee. We are seeking funds for the folklife
area at next years 58th Florida Folk Festival. Some
folks are skeptical of our chances. I'm not.
I hope we, can put together a group to go to Talla-
hassee in support of this grant when the time is right.
I remember when the White Springs Historic Preser-
vation Group was seeking a grant, a very competi-
tive one that many larger communities were also ap-
plying for. When they had the public part of the pro-
ceedings in Tallahassee, the chairperson of the grant
awards committee inquired if there were any people
in attendance from the various communities? "Jack-
sonville?" she asked, and two or three stood up.
"Orlando?" and no one was there. "White Springs?"
and you should have seen the smiles on the faces of
the committee members when the large contingent
of citizens from White Springs stood. It was evident
that we riot only wanted the grant, we were willing
to work for it! We got the grant and I believe that
those folks from White Springs who showed up in
Tallahassee that day made a difference.
The river has been "up" for quite a while now and
we have had a decent share of rainfall so I am hope-
ful that a very rare phenomenon may occur at the
Spring House in the near future. Perhaps we will
get to see the Spring flow. Not just the regurgitation
of the dark river water it has ingested over the past
two months, but clean, clear, cold spring water. I
wish that it would happen and that every parent
would march their young children down to the
spring to show them what we lost, what we squan-
dered, what we threw away. Would it make a dif-
ference? I have to confess, I'd be skeptical
Well, I've said enough for now, but I sure .would;

Music therapy has been shown to help in the healing process of a
variety of ailments or conditions, be they physical or mental.
Researchers at the Institute for Music Therapy in Germany, for instance,
studied the effects of music therapy when used to treat children with
developmental delay. Researchers studied a group of 12 children
between 4 and 6.5 years of age with developmental ages between 1 to
3.5 years. They were able to note the effects of musical therapy on the
children' development, which showed significant improvements,
including better hearing and speech and improved hand-eye
coordination in the children after exposure to the therapy. Music therapy
'has also proven effective in treating depression in older patients. A study
1by researchers at the Stanford University School of Medicine concluded
ibat music therapy showed great potential as a beneficial intervention for
..homebound elderly people who have limited access to healthcare
