Krilium, the nt-wly tllscovered chemicaf powder th n t can rebuild soil structure on rundown crop land within a few hours, will not take the place of fertilizers.Midwestern agronomists who have tested this new soil copditionor, say that its use on farm land would ac> tuaUy increase the soil's need for
plant food.Prof. Emil Truog, of the Univor- ally at Wisconsin’s soils department, points out that Krilium docs not ail*I any nitrogen, phosphate or potash to the soil. But by improvhig tilth, increasing the soU’s water-holding capacity and helping the soil **breathe’‘ in more air, it promotes bigger crop yields per ucre. Mori* bushels mean a heavier drain on the plant mitrienl supply.

WHICH of all the commandments is the most important? They kept asking this question cenlury after cenlury, and no one ever quite answered H before Jesus. It can c;»>-tly be a puzzling queKllon long as you think of th e Laws of God as 1/ they were a’ set of municipal reiruln* tions or bv-Unvs of a club. They arc PQl like that. They are all of a piece.When your tire is flat it doesn’t make much differ- Dr. Foremen ence where It is flat. If it is flat in one placc It might as well be flat in a dozen places. The Ten Commandments are alt linked together, indeed one can say much more than that. All the Jaws of God. everything God desires and orders man to do,~it is all linked in one.• •
Thou SlinK Love—
'ESUS’ answer to the old. old ques
tion about the “great command, ment” was not absolutely original Shortly 'before his time, a smart- aleck young man, so the .story goes, had come to a great Rabbi named Hillcl, and said to him: "The law is much too long and complicated. Can you tell me the law while 1 stand on one fool?”Yes/* said Illllel. **Llft one foot up. Now: Love Ihe Lord Ihy God %viU) all thy heart . . . Thou shaK love thy neighbor as thyself . . . New. put your foot down. That Is the law; all the rest is commentary.'*
So' Je.<;us quoted the same two laws that Hillel did,—from- Deuteronomy 6:5 and Leviticus 19:18.The link of the law is love; this is what ties all the laws togelher.
TtVA Kinds of Love
t h e w o rd "love” in English has been dragged armmd till at times It Is very hard l« loll what it means, if anything. Girls love ice cream and boys love basketball and a movie nclr<*ss claims she loves her ifth husband, and the preacher tolls ■IS we should love God. How can we tse the same word for so many different things?
Now a famous Swedish Christian
Mnkcr named N>v;ren has writlen a book to straighlen us out on this. He calls the book “Agape and Eros.” this being the two different Greek words for “love.” It's the same word in English for two different things; (lie Grce)<s knew better, and used two words that don’t even look alike.
Eros” means the kind of love girls have for ice cream or the movie actress has tor her fifth husband. ft is definitely not the word used in Ihe New Testament where Jesus commands us to love God and ■ our neighbor. “Eros” means pos- i sessive love, the love that wants to control and keep, (he kind of love , some parents have for their children when they do nut want them to grow up or to make choices of their own.
'Agape” (Agahpay) is a quite different thing. It means self-giving, self-ssicrificlng concern for another
person. You might have “eros” [or an ice-cream cone, but not “agape.”Yet the great anil distinctive point about Agape Is that It
dacs not Insist on aometbinff or anything in relum. It Is not bargaining love. It is not careful, cautious love, it is free outpouring of life for life.If you really wont lo know what ’□gape” love is, you must look at the Cross and consider that “while we were yet sinners, Chrisl died for us” (Uom. 5:fl).
Love Is llie Answer i
ST. PAUL, who could just as well j, be called thee Apostle nf Love as i St. John could, understood Ihe.'te Ihings very well. Ho says that “love is the fulfilling of the law” or as B. Phillips happily translates it. Love is the answer to the Law’s commands.” (Rom. 13:10.)We shall never even want lo obey (he will of our Falher In heaven unless we first love him.And we shall never really desire lo treat our neighbor as Gud wants us to treat him If we have no “agape” love for him In our hearts.Love Is not a substitute for law. Love is rather the atmosphere in which we hp-tin to understand God nnd our neighbor. Bros-love will not do: the Bible never once commands it and aever commends it. It Is only Ihe outgiving, self-forgetting devotion. that Jesus taught and demonstrated. that Is like the love nf the true God. Whatever we may do. It we have no love, we have still done
nothing.4C«uyrUh« IMI. bj (hr IMtIkJiiii nl

Mourne/s Bench
Rev. Waller E.liifnhour. Tnvlor»vlHe.N. C
We need the mourner’s bench again
With saints a.kneellng there,
Who in behalf of sinful men
Send up an earnest prayer,Till sinners come and kneel about
And weep Iheir way to grace.
Then start a hallelujah shout
With glory on tbeir face.
I like the mourner’s bench the best
Where people kneel and pray
Anf* where they find sweet, happv rest
In God's old^fasbloned way.
And then go forth to tell the news
Like saints of long ago.
Who helped their fellowmen lo
choose
The Lord who helped them so.
The folks are proud tnd haughty now,
Their heads sra lifted high;
They stand and pray Instead of
how,
And do not weep and sigh»
As in the blessed bv-gone years
When burdened for Ihe lost,And when they didn't mind tbelr
tears,'
But wanted Pentecost.
The preachers used to preach the
truth
And dig the devil up;
They warned our wayward, sinful
Vouth » *
Against sin’s sparkling cup;
Bttt now they have them join the
church
And let them live in sin.
And do the Iblngs that will be.
smirch
And wreck the soul within.
When mourner's benches were In
use
All up and down the land.
And Chri.stians didn't live so loose,
Nor build upon the sand, -
The churches won the lost to God
And had revivals great,
And helped the pilgrims onward
trod
To Heaven’s pearly gate.
Bui now the mcurner's bench 'Is
gone . .
And things are dead and dry;
The churches put their stippers on
And eat their cake and pie
While sinners travel on to hell
In mighty surging throngs,
Wiih Christians few who ever tell
And warn them of their wrongs.

^Our County And
Social Security
Bv W. K. White, Manaucr.
The American family has great
er security than ever before thru
old-age and survivors Insurance,
today's basic program in ^mlly
security.Rccent changes In the social sc«
curity law have brought many
more of the gainfully employed
under Us protection. The amounts
of insurance benefits have been
increased to reflect more reallsti-
callv current living standards. The
result has been a tremendous in
crease in the number of those re-
ceivlnc Insurance payments and a
decrease in the number receiving!
public or private assistance.
The benefits provided by this
national insutancc system enable
the fomilv to maintain and preserve itself against two of the
prime sotirces^'of economrc dis
tresses - death and old age. Most
employees, and most of the self-
employed, are included in the sys-,
tcm and, by their contributions to
the insurance fund, are buildingl
a ^Jture for their families secure from much of the hazard in pres*
ent economic life.The older worker has much less
need to fear financial hardship in
I old age. He need no longer be a idrain upon the resources of his
family or community* He bas,
through old-age insurance, earned
a measure of financial protection
for himself against that time when
age forccs retirement.
The worker who dies leaving a
family which was dependent upon his wages has, through survivors’
insurance, provided the means for
preserving his famiV* R ^la c
monthly insurance benefits based
on his earnings may enable the
>\ orker’s widow to remain at home
and to care for her children. The
family need no longer foil apart
for lack of ^nds for the basic ne« ccsslties it must have.
A representative of this office
will be in Mocksville again on

Oldest TreeMany scientific experts claim thr Tulc cypress is the world's oldest known living tree, estimating its antiquity between 3,000 and 6,000 years. It has outlived conquests^ revolutions, natural cataclysms— even civilizations. Zapotec and Mix- tec Indians of this part of Mexico worshipped trees long before the Spanish came in 1510. When Cortez and his armies overran the Aztec land, the conquistadores destroyed many shrine-trees as pagan symbols. Bui ISl Tule was spared, whether as a concession lo local tribes' adoration, or simply because the tree was too big to attack, is not known. Calltolic missionaries later declared Ihe monumental cypress the property of (he Church and an .nrm of Ood. They built a church In the very shadow of the tree. Al Easter and Christmas the people of the vicinity still hold their fiestas under the spreading branches.

Wc have about comc to the
conclusion that Harry Truman
doesn’t like Bob Taft nor the
Taft'Hartlev law.
The blackberry season oassing
lapidl.y and up to this time we
haven^t even seen a blackberry pie,
much lesss tasted one.
Here’s hoping the weather will
not be as hot in Chicago next
week aa it was in Davie countv
hist week. If it is. Republicans ar
the National Convention are liable
to lose their temper and nominate the wrona man for president.
ll‘ we are not mistaken there
will be a hot time in Chicago next
week. No one knows who will be
nominated for president. If the
right man is nominated we will
have a Republican president. If
the wrong man is nominated Truman may be elected.
The good people i n Davie
County will vote next month on
whether wc are to keep our beer
saloons or do away with them.
Since they were established in this
county drunkenness has increased.
It is up to the voters to express
their opinion at the polls. Some
folks are afraid to let the public know how they stand on this
• question. The public knows
where we stand.

^ gle.s for going anywhere in the
Bible, back or front. The voice ol
God speaks to us through It. and wc
can learn something from all parts*
of it.
For Ihe next three months the lessons are to be about the rise of
the Kingdom , from just after Joshua's tim e to the reign of Solomon
This week we have before us thi- first ond last parts of a booV
(Judges) that covers m any genera tions. This book contains some in
spiring stories, and some so harsh
or revolting that they never arc
studied in Sunday school.
The Inspired prophet who first
put these stories together and
commented on them makes a
significant postscript at the
end, as if to explain some nf (he more shocking talcs: Those
•were Ihe days when there was no king, and every m an did thr.t
which was right In his o>\’n eyes. There you have one of the keys
for understanding this strange Book
of Judges. It is the story of anarchy,
of m en doing as they pleased. Dc
law.s annoy you? Do you sometimes
feel that this would be a better
world if wo could do away with goV'
ernment enllrely and let every man
do as ho likes? The Book of Judges iihuws what sort of world that would
be and you wouldn't like It.• • •
The Cycle of Freedom
Ba n k in g experts talk about busi
ness cycles, and show diagram s
to illustrate them. The stories In
Judges also make a kind of pattern, a wavy line that clim bs up and dips
down, over and over again. The
curve is freedom, the low dip is
slavery.The little nation of Israel, or
rather Die IKtle galherntlon of Irihes not yet a nation, that went
by that name» was struggling for a place In the sun. Some
times they had no better than a place In the shade, in th«
shadows of nalional weakness, disgrace, defeat, slavery of one
sort or another.Other nations would "opfrcss”
them In the various ways by which one nation can oppress another: by
arm ed invasion, by m ilitary occupation, by m aking slave laborers, by
exacting huge sums of money, by depriving them of trade or territory.
And then after a long Um? of this, a hero would arise and lead the people back to freedom.
The M oral Cycle
TF that were all. the Book of Judges
* would not help us very much.
But (he question is: Why does a nation lose its freedom?
The answer given In this an
cient book has been confirmed
in history m any a time since. A
nation Is free when U deserves
to he free*, It loses its freedom witen it no longer deserves it.
The careful reader can see in the Book of Judges another line rising and falling, thee curving line of the
nation’s faith and moral life. When
they “ went after other gods,” —thal
is, when they sank to the sins and
crim cs which went with the worship
of these “other gods," they lo ^ their morals and at the same time
lost their m orale and their character. And a nation that loses Its
character is one that easily loses its freedom.
It is the way mighty Rome lell, and Spain, and m any another. It i.«
the way our own nation can fall. B ut the way out is also shown in the
Bible.The Book of Judges has beer
culled the Book of the Prodigal Na tion. It is the story of m an’s sin. but
also of God's mercy. It sometimcr takes long to learn the lesson, and
sometimes it is never learned: bul God holds out hope for the repent ant nation, as he holds m il hope for
the soul that turns from its wickedness. Is it ever loo late to repent

Mistre.ss (to new servant)— “Why, Bridget, this is the third tim e I've

worked for have them on the table?”
Bridget—*’No, m um , her friends always washed their hands before they cam e.”
Tough One
Bob Hawk tells about the fellow
who was always com plaining about being broke. A friend asked why he
didn’t keep some of his salary instead of giving it all to his wife each week.
’*I cnn’t do Ihat,” he said. “There’s a law against It.”
"W hat law ?” demanded the friend.
“ M y mother-in-Jaw.”
Beside the Point A teachcr took her first-grm'-.
class to a dairy where a guide* showed the children through the en>
tire plant, explaining the whole process. ITio tour over, the guide
asked if anyone had any questions. One little girl raised her hand,
^'Did you notice,” she asked,
"th at I've got on m y new snow su it?"
SA TU RDAY N IGHT
Pat, the new gardener, gazed wonderingly at the shallow basin
containing w ater on the lawn.
"W hat’s that for?’’ he asked the
housewife.
"T hat’s a bird bath,” he was in
formed.
“ Now, don’t ye be a-foolin’ me.
W hat is it really?”
"A bird bath. Don’t you believe m e?”
"No,** declared Pat with a shake
of his head. " I don’t believe there’s a bird alive w hat can tel! Saturday
from any other night.**
Deftly Defined
"C an you," asked the teacher,
"explain the m eaning of the ex-
pre.sslon, ’adding insult to injury*?’* " I can’t explain it,” Johnny re
plied, "b u t I can illustrate it/* "Proceed,” said the teacher.
"W ell,” reasoned Johnny, "if Iwas to give W illie two black cye.s
and a bloody nose, that would bo injury. But if I sent him a mirror
the next m orning that would be adi] ing insult to injury.”
W H O’S A FR A ID
Lieutenant Bailey, youthful Air
Force pilot, had just landed - his
fighter after a mission- north of
the 38th P arallel and went in to report to his com m anding officer.
"W ere you nervous during the attack?’’ inquired the C.O.
"W ho? M e?” asked Bailey. "N o sir, I was cool as a cucumber
through the whole show.”"Sw ell,” replied the C O . " I just

Oar County And
Social Security
Bv W . K . W liitc. Manager.
Last week a woman whom we
shall call Jane Doe came to our
office and requested that we give
her social security account num>
bers for her two children, aged 13
and 16. In our discussion wifh
Mrs. Doe we discovered that M r.
One had recently died, leaving a
widow and three children, ages
10, 13 and 16. but leaving little in
the way of financial independence.
Mrs. Doc had finally determined
that the oldest boy Jim m y, should
leave school to find employment
and that the I3'Vear*o!d bo y
should obtain after-school cm
plovment in order to help the
family budget. She had come to
us in order to obtain the account-
number cards which she knew
the employers would want to see.
We questioned M rs. Doe and
found that M r. Doe had worked
on various jobs since 1937. most
of which were covered under so
cial security. From the informa
tion given us we estimated that a
family benefit of about$110 could
be paid to M rs. Doc.
**This w ill change our plans,”
Mrs. Doe said. "M y lim m y can
stay in school and. graduate with
his class. <w f course, he w ill have
CO work pare time, but he won^t
leave school. Are you sure that
we can get some help from social
security?”
We assured M rs. Doc that such
insurance payments were made by
social security and that the Doe
family would qualify, provided
the information she gave us was
substantially correct.
‘John told me social security
would help us in our old age,”
Mrs. Doc said, “ but wc never con
sidered the possibility of his death
in our plans.' Our children w ill
have to work earlier than they
would if their fajiher had lived,
but even so. thev. like their fath
er, are building for the future.’
A representative of this office
w ill be in M ocksviiie again on
July 9th, at the court house,
second floor, at 12:30 p. m ., and
on the same date in Cooleemee,
at the old Band H all, over Led
ford’s Store, at 11 a. m.

Signal Corps Putt Junk
To Work; Saves $80 MMIUn
The Arm y Signal Corps in Japan has rebuilt and put to use searly
$80,000,000 worth of badly needed
communications equipment aban-
doned on Pacific islands after the
end of World W ar If.
At the tim e of the Communist invasion of South Korea, nearly 70,000 tons of signal equipment hod been
brought to Japan, but much of it had deteriorated so badly it was not
usable without extensive repairs.Stocks included about 50,000 dif
ferent items of radio, telephone, radar, teletype, and other complex
electronic devices. In addition, there
were more than 30,000 m iles of field wire and more than 2,000 telephone
switchboards.Contracts were m ade with 2S Jap
anese factories to recondition the equipment.
READ THE AD$
A long W ith the New»
Stutter Cure A person who stutters usually is
suffering from feelings of insscuri- ty and resentment, according to a
B o s to n University profe.ssor of speech. Dr. Donald M. Wilson re
ports that research at the school’s speech clinic shows that topics of
responsibility or the mention of the nam e of a person of authority can
cause the subject to start stuttering. This shows, Wilson said, that the
sufferer has hidden feelings of in. security and resentment. He said
the chief difficulty to overcome in
such cases is the stutterer’s unwill
ingness to seek aid. "People who have sight, hearing, or other physi-
cal di/ficullies are ready to have them treated and corrected.” W il ron said. "The individual with a.
speech problem has to learn that he, too, m ay find help.”

TzrOM EN com plain that thLs is o

B ut that’s not the point. Women com plain because men are Iho hoj»-

like that. Her nrm e meanr 'Bee” and she was the sort of worn
en who would somehow slin** Inry o> tim id people into doing their duty,
^ e is the only one of the “ Judfjes' of Israel who was a woman.
Now some female heroines are i
bit odd, to soy Ihe Ira 't of il. T.-iki
Joan of Arc,'w ho was a kind rf bc'
herself, and who took over when th»
rightful leader hung back. Joan wa:
the kind of girl who could heai
voices no one else heard. She was not exactly the kind of girl any mar.
would feel quite comfortable »* !th And naturally she never married.
B ut this Deborah was a wife and _ mother. Slie m ade some man
happy, she was a home-maker, children cuddled up in her lap.
W ie n later she became a
**Judge” she had all the wisdotii
of common-sense and of normal
experience as (he basis of her .
other wisdom. She knew how
motliers and home-makers feel.
When it says that she “judsed I? rael” it does not mean that she ra*
for office like modern judges, o that any king had appointed he?
for there was ho king .to 'do it. 1 means simply that everybody rc
apecled her judgm ent so much thr.
when there were problems mor-
tangled and twisted than common

did not wait for the m an to
come; she sent for him . He lived,
far from her home, and his name, was Barak. She put an idea into his
head, only it was not her idea, she claim ed for it the authority of God
Barak was to be a general, he ,
was to recruit an arm y. She told ^
him , there under the palm tree*
where he was to get his a rm jr,'
where he was to take H and
wliat to do with It when he got
there.
Space does not perm it the details that would show that Deborah’s
ideas, were absolutely sound from a
m ilitary point of view. She was a whole General Staff by herself.
But Barak backed off from his
great opportunity. He would go, he
said, provided she would go ah.'-^".
Now Deborah didn’t like thi.t. She liked a m an who woidd go out on
his own without having to hove lady at hand to tell him what to do.
So she went: but she told him the journey would not be for his honor.
That, however, is another story.
The point is that this Deborah was
a woman so wise that the ablest
m an in the country at the time was
not w illing to do anything important without her advice.
Deborah’s Daughters
DEBOK AH was not the last woman
whose wisdom and whose deci
sions have led men to success.
There are today in the United
States women in congress, both In
the senate and in the house; a worn an is in charge of manpower; at
least one wom an is a U.S. circuit
judge, the next highest In rank be
low the Supreme Court. There was
a w oman governor of W yom ing as
far back as 1924.But for every w oman who
makes (he headlines and Who!s
Who, for every woman who has
some official ’position, (here are
hundreds of others, un-nomi> nated and unsung, who are
known in their homes and in
their home (oniis for (heir
unfailing good advice.
"Ask M rs. -------” is the first
thing the neighbors think when
something comes up. And sometimes
a wise w oman’s reputation doesn’t even gel around to the nelg.
Sometimes It is qnly her fam il ils .

Our County And
Social Security
Bv W . K . W hite. Manager.
Last week a woman whom we
shall call Jane Doe came to our
office and requested that we give
her social security account num
bers for her two children, aged 13
and 16. In our discussion wifh
Mrs. Doe we discovered that M r.
Doe had recently died, leaving
widow and three children* ages
10, 13 and 16. but leaving little in
the way of financial independence.
Mrs. Doe had finally determined
that the oldest bov Jim my, should
leave school to find employment
and that the 13-vear*old bo y
should obtain afterschoul em
ployment in order to help tbe
family budget. She had come to
us In order to obtain the account-
numbcr cards which she knew
the employers would want to see.
We questioned M rs. Doe and
found that M r. Doe had worked
on various jobs since 1937. most
of which were covered tmder so
cial security. From the informa
tion given us we ^timated that a
fomlly benefit of about$llO could
be paid to M ». Doe.
“This w ill change our plans,'*
Mrs. Doe said. "M y limmy can
stay in school and graduate with
through-
fout the cominunlty where he liv-
;ed for many years. W c shall miss
his visits to our print shop.

We assured M rs. Doe that such
insutante payments vvere made by
social.SMuri^. and that the Doe
family would qualify, provided
the information she gave us was
substantially correct.
**John told . me social security
would help us in our old age,*
Mrs. Doe said, **but wc never con
sidered the possibility of his death
in our plans. O ur children w ill
have to work earlier than they
would if their father had lived,
but even so, they, like their fath
er, are building for the future.”

Stutter Cure A person who stutters usually is
suffering from feelings of insecurity and resentmen^ according to a
B o s to n University professor of speech. Dr. Donald M . Wilson re
ports that research at the school's speech clinic shows that topics of
responsibility or the m ention of the nam e of a person of authority can
cause the subject to start stuttering. This shows, Wilson said, (hat the
sufferer has hidden feelings of insecurity and resentment. H e said
Ihe chief difficulty to overcome In such cases is the stutterer's unw ill
ingness to seek aid. "People who have sight, hearing, or other physi
cal difficulties are ready to have
them treated andycorrected." W il
son said. "T he individual with „
speech problem has to learn that
he, loo, m ay lind help."

The Boll Weevil
Situation
Boll weevils have done more
damage in North Carolina to coC<
ton thus far this spring than' up
to the same time in 1951. There
is considerably more dainaec and
activity in cotton fields In Davie
County than last year.
I checked six fields for bnll wee.
vils on Thursday, June 26th. In
two o the fields the cotton was
fairly young and did not have e*
nough squares to check. Howev'
er, I was unable to find any weev
ils on the plants that 1 checked. I
checked four fields that had
nough squares to be checked for
punctures. One field had 48 punc
tu.ed squares and one boll weevil
in a square. Two fields had
of the squares punctured and one
of them also had one boll weevil.
The last field had nine squares
punctured out of a hundred. We
do not think it is advisable to'be-
gin s raying or dusting for boll
weevils until the infestation has
gotten above 10 per cent.
1 am afraid some of the fields I
have just mentioned tvill have
more than 10 per cent infestation
when tliey are checked this week.
Since there appears to be more
damage than last year, it is highly
important that every cotton grow
er check his fields at least once
week for punctured squares. By
checking the hundred squares o-
support will be ovailable on 1953 crop.
the outcome of the re farendum, however, loans will bo avalU
abie at 90 per cent of parity on the 19.*»2
crop as a protection to farmers.
The Referendum will be held in nil com munitles 0i< July 10. 1052, ond voting
places will be announced next week.

Farm Wife io Er.courage
"ew Homes, Reiaodeling
A group of reseurchers arc con 4'lnred thcrc’-s some truth In Ih*
v.-arn«n‘i. "never im dcrestim ale lh«
powur of a woman.*’
Tlic real impetus to home buildini on the nation’s farm s wil) probabb
be generated by M rs. F o rm W ifr herself,,they say.
F arm women, expJaJn MJnneapo- Us-HoneyweU resonrchcvs, have .
per cent more- children than cit* women, and obviously large /am- Dies—50 per cent of farm childrer
under 18 are in fam ilies with fou) or more children. Therefore, tbej-
see ^ the big building push com in;
from this annual farm fam ily baby
crop. These births create a dem and by the farm wife for room ier quar- . lera.
} Secondly, the expected manpourer
shortage on farm s means that many a farm er w ill rem odel h is hom e to
m ake housework easier for his wife who w ill have to shoulder more of
the chores. The researchers sec more autom atic equipment, ram
; Ing from heating systems to disl.* washers, being widely installed to
help her keep pace w ith her new
labors^

m an’s world anyhow, because nboui haU the grown men.
B ut that’s not ihe point. Women com plain because m en are the bos-s-

teachers but m en T iin th e school-
b o a r d , a n d so

A n y h o w , Debor»h won a woman
like that. H er nam e means “Bee” and she w as the sort of worn
en who would somehow sUnn la.-rv or tim id people Into doing their duty.
She is the only one of Ihe ‘Mudgea
of Israel who was a woman.
Now some female heroines ^ e t
b it ofld. lo say U » le a 'l o l W- Tnk< Joan o l Arc, who was a klnrl of be(
lierscU, and who took over when th(

And naturally she never m arried.
B ut this Deborah was a wife and
a m other. She m ade some m an
happy, slic was a home-maker, ehU-
dren cuddled up in her lap. .
W ie n later she became »
“judge** she had all the wisdom of common«sense and of normal;
experience as the basis of her other wisdom. She knew hew
mothers and Uome-mUkers feel.
W hen it says that she ’fu d ge d It rael” it does not m ean that she ra.*

th a t any king had appointed hej
for there was no king to do it.* I
m eans simply that everybody i rr apected her judgm ent so m uch tha
when (here were problems ,m<^ tangled and twisted than commcm
they would go ask Deborah, whf she thought.

She Di(ln*t Like a Sissy
ON one famous occasion DeboraV
did not w ait for the m an to i
com e; she sent for him . He lived far from her home, and his name
w as Barak. She put an idea into his head, only It was rwl her idea, she
claim ed for it the authority of God.B arak was to be a general, he
was to recruit an arm y. She (eld him , there under the palm tree,
where he was to get M s arm y, where he was to take U and
w hat to do w ith it when he got titere.
Space does not perm it the dclaUs that would show that Deborah's
Ideas were absolutely sound from a m ilitary point of view. She was, a
whole General Staff by herself.But Barak backed off from his
great opportunity. H e would gn, he said, provided she would go
Now Deborah didn’t like thJ.t. She liked a m an w ho would go out on
bis own w ithout having lo have a lady at hand to tell him what lo do.
So she w ent:-but she told him Ihe journey wwild not be for his honor.
That, however. Is another story; The point Is that this Deborah wu_
a w om an so wise th at the ablest
m an in the country at the time was
not w illing lo do anything important
w ithout her advice.• • •
Deborah’s Daughters
DGBOUAH was not the last woman
whose wisdom and whose decisions have led men to success.
There are today in the United States women in congress, both in
the senate and in the house; a woman is in charge of manpower; at
least one w om an is a U.S. circuit judge, the next highest In rank.^be*
low the Supreme Court. There was
a w om an governor of W yom ing a.^ far back as 1024.
Bt)t for every w oman who
m akes the headlines and Whd*s
W ho, for every w om an who has some orrielal posiUon, there are
hundreds ot others. un*nonii> nated and unsung, who are
known In their homes and In tlieir borne, (owns for thelr
unfailing good advice.
“Ask M rs. -------” is the firstthing the neighbors think when something com es up. And som etim es)
a wise w om an’s reputation doesn’t even get around io the neighbors.
Sometimes it Is only her fam ily that know how wise she is.
B ut it is a safe guess that if: you I look out of our m odem life a ll that i
w om en contribute, all the good ac and far-sighted policies that th<
have thought of first, ours would 1 a m uch worse world than it la.

Milk Is One of World's
Oldest Known Foods
• M ilk is one of the oldest known
foods. Records exist of cows being ‘ m ilked In 9,000 B.C. The Bible con
tains many references to m ilk, one of the best remembered from Ex
odus 3:8->“m ilk and honey.”, Sans
k rit writings 6,000 years old tell how
m ilk , is one o f'th e m ost essential of all foods. Hippocrates recom>
mended m ilk as a medicine five cen turies before Christ. In U r of the
.Chaldees a frieze depicts a dairy scene in 3500 B.C. showing milk ■ containers.
When Christopher Columbus came
to America there were no cows, bui on his secQnd voyage in 1495, he brought cattle and other farm ani
m als to the islands of the West Indies.
The first U.S. cows were brought over to the Jam estow n Colony m
1611. The few cows ihat arrived at the Plymouth Colony in 1624 really
marked tbe beginning of tbe Am er
ican dairy Industry.
The Pilgrim s m ade the mistake of not bringing cows and lack of
m ilk was said to have had a bearing on the high death rate, particularly of children. 'Cows were required to
be brought on later ships.
When the frontier moved west* ward, the covered wagons were accompanied by co tvs.
Margarine Production
Doubles in Ten Years
American production of m argarine has doubled in Ihe past 10 years,
according to 1951 census reports.
Prom fewer than a half-bliiion
pounds used in 1940, m argarine consumption has now zoomed to more
than one-billion pounds in I9S1. closing the gap between butler and margarine consumption to an al
most even figure.
This is taken from the report of
the chemicals section, industry division. Bureau of the Census.
• Butter consumption in l$k40 wn

Ja m and Jelly
If your cupboard shelf Is full of ja m and jelly glasses it is a good
bet that each m em ber of your fam ily is eating the four pounds of fruit
spreads alloted to them, according
to the latest com pilation of produc
tion figures. T hat’s about twice as
much as was available (o each person during the pre-war years. There
were 624,200,000 pounds of standard frujt spreads m ade In IDSff, uhich
IS about 10 per cent greater than the figure . recorded for 1943 -and 1949. The estimates w’ere based on
reports from-companies which m an
ufacture 72 per cent of the industry's volume.
Exterior Colors
Color consultants insist that exterior colors for homes should be
weighed carefully so that a clashing effect for the neighborhood docs not result. They claim that not only
should each home be looked on fronv
the color standpoint as an oppor>
tunity to co-ordinate colors inside ■and out, but also complete neighbor
hoods should be designed to har. monize. One consultant has set up
color specifications for more than 64,000 homes for 160 builders in 26
states. The explanation: “It’s the ensemble that counts—whether it be a wom an’s outfit, a bouse or a
whole com m unity.”

Lesson tv. ...... za. 10.2
Th e g r e a t t r a g e d y c»r iire is
that m an Itas three incnm i'ctiblo
Ideals. So says a famous thinlter of
«ur tim e. These three arc thu hero.
artist, the sainl. The hero’s vir
tue is strength: the artist’s is
beauty, and the Soint's is hnpncps.
A h e r o , in the course of his heroic
acts, d o c s (hfngs w hich would stain
the honor of a saint and w hich are too
ugly for a sensitive artist even to Ihinit
at>out. Saints on the other hand are often
m ost unheroie; they " w a x v o lia n f in
submission, not in
fight; and they often - care very little for beauty. Artists likewise m ay be personal cowards and live
anything but saintly lives. Yet so*
eiety needs all three, though the values one cherishes m ay ^ just
the opposite of w hat the otlier prizes. .Very rarely, the sam e m an'
m ay show traces of artist, saint and hero.• • •
Hero G ideon '
•p H E W O R D "judge” in the Book
^ of Judges usually means what
we would call a hero, a m ilitary
m an w ith a successful record. Then,
as now, if a m an m ade good in«the arm y he w as after thought of as an
arm y m an. H is title and his ranic stuck to him his life long.
We think of General G rant as an arm y m an, and Lee as another;
though one was President of the United States and the other one a
distinguished college president.
So Gideon eomes dovm in his
tory as one of th« **Judges'’ who
flciivered Israel from a power*
ful enemy. This tim e the enemy '
was the IVlidlanltes, a roaring
nuisance if ever there was one.
M idlanltes were nom ads, they lived where ihey pleased, and
they lived off the peaceful farm* ers wherever they were.
There were so m any that their arm y looked like a sw arm of lo
custs. They were seen only once 'a year, but th at was enough. They
would w ait out in the wilderness until the crops were ready for har
vest; then they would dash into the country, raid every farm from bor
der to border, and skip out again,
leaving the Israelites on the edge
of stravation for another year.
How Gideon, a sm all farm er and a tim id soul by nature, became the
hero who n e a r ^ exterminated the M idianites and set his people free,
is one of the m ost fascinating talcs in the O ld Testament. The people
iovcd h im and rem embered him for that one thing above all: he could
fightl "• • •
Gideon (he A rtist
IP H E R E A R E M O R E W AYS than
^ one to be artistic. General Gideon painted no pictures, carved no
statues, wrote no poems. B ut he was
an artist all the sam e. There is
something artistic about any good workmanship, and it is as true of
m ilitary cam paigns as of ever^hing else.
Incidentally, generals have a
tem ptation to overlook this. At the Battle of Fredericksburg in the A m erican Civil W ar, when the
northern arm y was m arching into the grinding trap which Lee and his
generals had prepared, Lee re
m arked that it’s a good thing war
is so terrible, otherwise wo should
become*too fond of it. He was speak
ing from the general’s viewpoint, of
course. The private is seldom in danger of being too fond of war.
A t all events Gideon’s cam- were just as "beautiful”
all details as anything Napoleon, Lee, Hitler or Hannibal ever Invented.
C an a hero be an artist? In his
way, yes; like any other craftsm an, he can do a necessary, rough and
dirty piece of work in a way that calls out the exclam aion: Beauti
ful!S aint G ideon
p A N A S O L D IE R be a saint? It
' “'y o u m em i by "saint’’ the ideal
of w hat a Christian should be, inost would say No. General Lee said at
the end of his life that if he had it to live over againt he would not be a soldier.
And still, the writer of (he
letter (o the Hebrews In the . New Testament does not hesi
tate to list Gideon, and even
(hat half-hero B arak, right along
w ith the rest In his list of high
saints, the m en and women of
Faith.F or fundam entally it is faith that
m akes the saint. And Gideon was a inan of sturdy faith. To paraphrase
Tennyson, his strength was as the strength ot ten, because his faith
was pure. So there have been countless m en whose pirofession is arm s
who have also been m en of faith.

joyed excontlonnlJy good hcr*1tli i- W5I. and Ihc outlook for If^nz ai»
pears equally good, health offics*’.-^ report.
The Ktcady advances In medico' • science, more crricient use of tho
nation’s m edical and public heaUh
facilities, and the prospect of good
economic conrMtions are the prime
factors in assuring good health con-
djtions in the year ahead. Only the outbreak of a m ajor w ar or an epi
demic for which measures of con*
frol arc as yet ineffective would be •iiikely to m a r this outlook.
' The death rate of the United States in J951 was about 0.7 per X.OOO, or only 1 per cent above the
all-time low m ark set the-previous year. Even this slight rise is vir
tually wiped out when' allowance is
mnde for the increased num ber of
infants and older persons, among whom the death rate is norm ally
above Uie average for the popula-
tion a.<; a whole. The excellent rec>
ord of 11)51 was achieved, moreover,
World’s n«gord Raint
Hava Fallon In U.S.
History’s heaviest rains have not . always occurred in monsoon eoun- " P>-f
tries, tropical Jungles or hurricane- son se nd ing in th e ir correct nam es,
swept islands. Record deluges have ,
drenchcd the United States. I
On June 22, 1047, President Tru- m en’s home slate, Missouri. /tJ'.lncd
a place near the top of the IIkI of the wettest places in (be world. During that day, one foot of rain fell
on the little town of HoU, Missouri,
in the space of 42 minutes.
The rninie.<;t single minute In Jhc
knowledge of the U.S. Wnnllter .Bureau ticked by in a place named
Opid’s Cam p, California, on April 5, 1026. Almost two*thirds of an inch
of water fell in those 60 srconds.
Cherrapunji, in India’s Assum
province, holds all world record.^ for continual * heavy rnfnfall over
periods ranging from fniir dnys to two years. Through 1R60 and 16.11,
a total of 133 feel nine inches of
rain poured from the sky there. In
July of 1861 alone, more than 30 feet
fell.
A Texas town named Thrall hns
had a more intense short-term rain
even than that. On September !),1921, an 10-hour storm brought down
a record 3Q.4 inches of rain—three solid feet. Smtheport, Ppn"‘.sylvania,
almost bettered that m ark In only four and a half hours on July 18.
1942. when 30.S inches fell.
Eating Breakfast Giisrdj
Afainst Mental Slumps
Recent surveys completed at a prominent m edical college confirms
previous findings that the habit of eating breakfast guards again$^t
physical and m ental slum p during the pre-noon hour.
For this reason, if for no other Ihe daily eating of breakfast con
stitutes a wise livin't habit.According to nutrition and health
authorities, a widely rccognizcd breakfast pattern of fruit, cereal,
m ilk, bread, and butler is the basi.*? of a good, nutritious breakfast. •

Lot of Thinking
If you do a lot of thinking and rem ain m enlalJy active, your brain
cells w ill continue to function well
as you grow older, scientists have
discovered. It’s been shown through
m any tests that although nerve cells grow old and eventually die, this
process is more likely to be delayed by overworking your brain than by
not using it. This theory was saidnoi u:>ing 11. Aois meory was said ■ to have been prov.ed by microscopic T
investigations of tissue m ade at I the Institute. for Brain Study at '
Neusladt'Schwarzwald, G erm any. \
Deep Sea Television Deep-sea divers can now have
their own television shows, through Ihe use of a new underwater cam

new instrument w ill be used to explore undersea areas to help divers

New Discovery
Should Provide
More Titanium
N E W Y O R K - A young Ph.D. can
didate at the Columbia University School of Engineering has developed
w hat m ay prove to be the answer to one of America's urgent defense
>roblems in metallurgy—the prob* em of extracting titanium economi
cally in large quantities.Government authorities h a v e
stated that U.S. armed forces need • t least 10 times as much titanium •s this country now produces.
Titanium, ninth in abundance
imong m inerals in the earth’s crust, s useful because of its light weight, high m elting point, and extreme
resistance to corrosion.
Graduate Student
The graduate student is Arthur .T. Kerbecek, Jr., who conducted the
research for his doctoral dissertation at the suggestion of D r.. Colin
G . Fink, professor emeritus of chemical engineering and inventor
of t h e commercial method of
chrom ium plating, the ductile tungs
ten lam p filam ent, and other processes.Herbert H. Kellogg, associate pro
fessor of metallurgy at Columbia's Engineering School, who is a m em
ber of the government’s Subcom-
mitlec on Basic Research in Extrac
tive Metallurgy of T itanium . !«aid that he plans to bring Mr. Kor-
bccek’s process to the attention of that group a t its next meeting. The
Subcommittee is port of the Metni- lurgicH* Advisory Board of the Na
tional Rescorch Council.“The i*esuJts of Mr. Kerbecek’.9 research so for oiler ho?>e that wc
may be able, in the noJ-too-disimH
future, to use titanrum on a large
scalo," Professor KeUogg soid.“The obstacle to increased pro
duction to meet this urgent problem is the difficulty of ohUiininG
titanium from the compound in which it is comn’cniy fnnnd in
nature. Present mr!h»fis of production are very costly."There is reason to believe that
M r. Kerbecek’s nKth<vJ may be Jess expensive.”
Detaits Unreveale:!
Although details of the process
have not been revca erl. Mr.- Kerbecek said that an electrolytic
method is used to rcduce the chloride, which is prepared from
the original oxide.Professor Fink, who has used the
principle of electrolysis in solving m any other problems, suggested
this approach to him . M r. Kerbecek ■pent neariy three years on the re
search.. It was pointed out that all three
branches of the armed forces are
eager to obtain titanium In large
quantities, and industry, too, sees
m any uses for it, especlaJly replacing alum inum and stainless steels
lor certain purposes.The Navy would use titanium in
ship-building, to protect parts of a vessel which are exposed to sea
water. Because of U tanium’s extrem e resistance to corrosion, salt
water has little or no effect on it.The Arm y, too, has many uses for
titanium , llie weight of certain
weapons and some mobile equipment, designed to be carried by in
fantrymen, could be cut by as mwh «s 50 per cent If titanium were used.
Perhaps the most im mediate and vital need for titanium exists in the
Air Force, In the contruction of very high speed Jet and rocket
craft.The U.S.A.F. believes that a su
personic airplane now being de
veloped could be made lighter by
half a ton if titanium were substituted for stainless steels.

WHEN A CH RISTIAN looks back,
he can see God’s hand better than he can see it looking forward.
A Christian, even a worrying Chris- lian-dhough there should be no such
people as Christians who worry), can feel very thankful for God’s
blesshigs, care and
g u id a n c e in Iho past, even w h i l e
worrying o v e r to- morrow ’ff u n c e r-
lainties. How foolish this is! God k
even n o w malcini! ready for the fu
ture. He is not to be taken b y surprise.
He knows what he
wants and he knows how to gel it. While wc waste time
in worry, God is at work. The story of Samuel is a case in point.• « •
God’s Home
p V E R Y ON E KNOW S that the
^ strongest single influence in a
person's life Is his home. We sometimes take that for granted.
On the contrary, a home may
wreck a m an before he starts. Ii
has been said that m any alcoholics get their start, —not Iheir start in
drinking but their start in the nervous, unsettled disposition which
easily slips down Into .alcoholism and other drug habits, before thej*
are six years old. The wrong kind of parents, lack of harm ony between
father and mother, ill-treatment or
sim ple neglect, can m ake a child
already abnorm al before he is old enough to go to school.
On ihe other hand, the foun
dation of a strong m an can al
ways be found In ihe home
where he flrst lived. So it was with the rem arkable m an, the
prophet Samuel.
In later life he became lawgiver,
king-maker, preacher and general of the arm y; no ordinary m an! The
nation needed h im ; and when the
tim e cam e, God produced him . But God produced his m other first.
God^s Church
A f t e r l e a v i n g h o m e , Sam
uel literally lived in the taber
nacle, which served as a church in
those far off days. The little bo>’
found there a second home. Old Eli
the priest no doubt cam e to menn
m uch more to h im than his own fa-
ther did, his father whom he so seldom saw.
So it stUl is, where the church is doing w hat it should for the
children of Its people. A child
should not be afraid of the mln> isler: he should not feel any-
tliing but love for ihe church.
True, a church building Is dlf*
fercnt from other buildings in U iai ii is set apart for a sacred
use. A church Is the symbol of
God*s presence am ong men, and
tlie sanctuacT of a ehureh ought to m ake all who come into it
feel that this place Is holy ground.
B ut that does not m ean that a
child should be afraid of the place,
os some children are. If they have, been coming there every Sunday
since they can rem ember, sl'JIng with the rest of the fam ily in the
fam ily pew (sounds old-fashioned but there are still thousand.s of
them ), coming so regularly that no question Is over asked on Sunday
m orning, “Well, shall we go to church or not?” — then they will
feel more a t honie on the inside of
the church, when the Lord’s Day comes, than they ever will on the outside.
Now this Is not all always true. If
children and young people are not
attracted by the cl-.urch, as too often
they are not, whose fault is it?Whoever may be to blam e, it is
certain that a church which loses its young people is headed for its end.« • •
The Voice of God
FT IS MOST IN T ER EST IN G to know
* that when young Samuel heard the voice of God, it sounded just
like the voice of E li the priest. (If you heard the voice of God, whose
hum an voice would It sound like?)A t any rate, God prepared (his
great prophet Sam uel not only by the Influence of home and
church, but by a* personal re
ligious experience. Now there Is no real oonfTlct or contradlc-
tion between r«-(lglous education and conversion, between ihe
church and (he home, and the work of the Doly Spirit.
God was in Sam uel's hom e, God was In that taberriicle, God was in
his r.'-ligious education. B ut God
also cam e to him directly and not only through hom e and church. If
we wonder sometimes where the Christian leaders for the next gen
eration are com ing from , we m ay be sure God Is preparing them even
now, in sim ple if obscure ways, as he did w ith Sam uel of old.

did. When they left, she shook hands with the hostess and said

the question, “And w hat .«ball I say next?”
A voice from the congregation responded, ”Am en.”

Double Trouble
In New England when a motorist is hit by a train at a grade crossing he is in trouble with the law. Such an.accident is sufficient evidence of his carelessness in failing to keep a sharp lookout for trains-at a known danger point. In addition, if a motor- ist dashes across the tracks ahead of a train ofter the crossing warning whistle has blown he may be prosc> cuted if the engineer can obtain his liccn^ number. Likewise, any livestock killed along the right of way or at a grade crossing arc not paid for by the railroad. Instead, the owner of the stock is liable for any damage lo Ihe train caused by his property. In the abpcnce of dnn>;);!e to the railway’s property the owner, if known, is billed for the cost of burying the carcass'
No Smoking Law Smoking was not permitted on
trains In England until December of 18G7, and the ban was not the mere
whim of company rule. It was pro
hibited by law; However, Viscount Ranelagh thought tlte law nonsense
and persisted in smoking his pipe whenever riding a Iruin. He was ar
rested and fined, but the publicity given his trial causcd so much pub
lic debate on the question that a bill was introduced into Parliam cnl to

Many people, who for the first
time began working in employ*
ment covered bv the Social,Secur«
ity Act on January 1, 1951, w ill be
clifllble CO rcceive their o)d*&ge
insurance benefits during this se
cond quarter of 1952. The newly
covered groups such as household
workers, seH'Cmployed individu
als, and farm workers, to mention
a few, are most directly concerned*
Any worker who is 75 years of
age or over, who has worked at
least a year and a half In employ
ment covei^ed by the Social Secur*

to work in his present position

can.
It Is advisable for all workers
75 years of age or over to call at
their social security oflice to dis
cuss their case and be advised of
their rights. It is also important
lo note that in some cases it
would.be advisable for a worker
to delay the filing of his applica.
tion for benefits until January 1,
1953, in order to receive a higher

who founded the pnper In 1899.
For the past -15 years we hnve
tried to print a newspaper that all
members of tlie fiunilv could read
and enjoy. We have worked for
rhc upbuilding of our town nnd
conntv, and tried to make the
world a little better place in which
to live. \Vc have worked for bet
ter roads, better schools a n d
churches, better farms nnd better
livestock. We have seen many of
our dreams come true. The ma«
jority of our farms have modern
farm m aJim ery, electricity and
good sanitary conditions, togeth-
er with rcKistercd catde, hogs ond
poultry. Our county has many
modern dairy farms, and farmers
are producing larger and better
crops as the years «o by. We have
a fine school system and fine all'
weather roads traverse the entire
county.
The Record has seen many
changcs in the past 45 years since
the present editor took over, and
most of them have been for the
best. We shall continue to strive
to make our town and county
pleasant place in which to live and
enjuy life. Our sincere thanks
are extended to nil of our sub

He was a prophet, for the poopli
who knew him turned to him when they wanted to know what Gnr
thought. We can call him a prcach er, for we know of one very suc
cessful revival which he conductor (1 Sam . 7). He was also w hat wc
call a circuit judge, going from
town to town to hold court. He wap
a successful general, for wc know he'not only advised m ilitary lead
ers but took the lead in raising an arm y him self and directing It in a
successful cam paign.
He was a priest, not only In
„ form al w ay, offering saorl-
ffees a t various places; but he also once said a mem orable
thing which m arks bim as a priest In the tm est sense: **Tc
have done all this Aviekedness,
y e l. . . God forbid (hat I should
sin against you In ceasing to
pray for you.” (Chap. 12.)
He was a writer, lor though he could not have w ritten both book,
that bear his nam e, he did write “ the m anner of the Kingdom ” —
perhaps a kind of constitution. And next week’s study w ill show him as

Public Spirit
SA M U EL him self is a model for
all the many-gifted men wtio
reach and deserve positions of
power. He never milked the people
tor his own benefit; he never used,
public office for private gain. (With one sad exception; he kept his
worthless sons on the public payroll.) He was a m an of true public
spirit.This m eans two things, and Sam
uel had them both. One is a wide
vision; being able to see all sides of a question, and to sec not only his
own advantage, hut how decisions
and policies affect all kinds of per
sons.• ♦ •
Most polltioians w ill have at heart the* interests of their own
lltUe bailiw ick; how m any have the interests of the nation at
heart?Public spirit m eans wide vision.
It means a wide concern, not only seeing but caring. In an election
year, when politicians are clam oring a i us from all sides, we ma.v
well inquire about every candidate Does this m an have any resemb
lance to G od's m an Samuel? Doei- he have a sense of responslbilit
to God? Does he have a wide vision, a wide concern? Whose side is he
on? Is he out for himself, or foi
God and the whole people?

What Does The^
Public Want?
Rev. Walter E.lneohnut. Tavl J.N.C
Within the last year 1 have con
tacted over a hundred newspspers
in the state of North Caroltna in
regard to a sinall amount of space
weekly, or as ofien as It might he
granted, that I may get something
into their colnrons by the way of
poetry, sermons, or short articles,
that I fA l would be worth ’ much
to the public; but ont of* all these
t>nper5 contacted only one has giv.
en me a small amount of space once
a week. Really I have been al.
most dumfoniided. I sent some
material to every paper I wrote fl
Dersonal letter to—and I wrote lo
each one>~and ^ven sent stamps for
a reply, or for the return of the
material, and manv of the papers
not only failed to reply, and of
course gave no space to mv materi.
al. hut didn*t even return the ma.
terial, as I asked them to. I know
the material I have write 1s for the
uplift of the people mornlly and
spiritunllv. and even physically.
I never write anything of an un*
clean natnre, but alwavs oray for
God to direct me in my composi-
tions. and In my articles tnd short
messages.
Really I am astonished at the
way newspaper men, generally
speaking, treat what I have written.
One of these newspapers not only
onlv refuseft me space, hut gives
much space each week to advertis.
ing whiskey. Others give much
space to sports, tobacco advertising,
and the news of crime, and much
that Is degrading and demoralising.
Manv <if the newspatwrs have very
little In them that It lakes to read
their columns T have come to the
definite conclusion that the news
papers of our country are tremend.
ouslv responsible for the low moral
conditions of the nation. . They
throw Into Ihe waste basket that
which would be uplffting and en
nobling to the people, and that
which would help save our youth
from degradation, crime and de
struction, snd then give their space
to that which is very largely de-
trimental morally ohvsicaliy and
spirituailv. Is It only the plan of
rbe .majority of our newspapers to
give the public the cheapest stufl
they can pick up because it Is
wanted, or because It is in demand,
and because it. brings in money?
Are our newspaper men interested
onlv in money? Do the majority
of them care nothing for ihe mor-
als of our couturv and Ihe »alva>
(ion of the souls of mankind? If
this is true, and it seems to be,
therefore we are in a deplorable
condition in regard 10 the reading
matter of our newspapers W«
greatly appreciate tt'e space some editors give us.

Weight of an Obfect
Deptnds on Your Aftitude
We’ve all experienced how short
tim e seems when you’re having fun
— and how the hours seem to drag when you’re doing something that's
boring. But oUier things besides tim e are influenced by your likes
or dislikes.
How heavy an object is and how
big- it seems to be, can depend a lot on your attitude toward it. A l Emory
University, in Georgia it was found that a ja r of candy seemed heavier
to a child than 'a ja r of sand, even when the candy ia r weighed less.
And, am ong 8 'to 10-year-old boyp and girls, real coins seemed larger
than gray disks of the sam e size, while poor .children saw the real
coins as niuch larger, than did children of the .rjch.
Everything is reUtive.
Am ong , the new pieces of fine furniture being shown currently, the general tendency , is to have the
finish bring out the true beauty and texture of the wood. Moder
ately light finishes continue to lead,
w ith taw ny tones running a close
second. New "aged*;- effects are
now increasingly popular.
The usual crowd of sm all boys
was gathered about the entrance uf
a circus tent in a small town one
day, pushing each other and tryinp
lo get a glimpse of the interior. A
m an standing near watched them fcr
a few minutes, then walking; up to the tlckct-taker he said with an air
of authority:"L e t these boys In, nnd couiu
them as they pass."The gateman did as requested

Spring Sign The arrival of the first robin Is

”T N. B, D YSON , Commissioner

Our County And
Social Security
Bv W . K . W hite. Manager.
Many people in this area w ill
receive higbcr social security pay
ments as a result of the social se
curity amendments which Prcsf*
denr Truman signed Into law on
July 18th, 1952. The first increas
ed checks w ill be for the month
of September, delivered early in
October.
Let us emphashe that no one
needs to applv for the increased
payments. The Social Security
Administration is already chanc
ing the accounts. We expect to
get them changed in rime to have
them in the mail October 3, the
regular delivery date, but if in a
few cases we don^t meet that sche
dule we’ll send the regular check
and make up the difference in a
later check.
I would like also to point out
ihat although nearly every fam ily
receiving pavments would receive
an increase, the additional amount
would not alwavs be divided ar
mong all the members of the fam
ily receiving monthly checks. In
some cases the entire increase w ill
go ro the retired worker.
Under the terms of the law,
most families w ill receive an In
crease of about $5; some w ill get
less; some w ill get more. A few
benefits now being paid, and most
of those payable in the future,
w ill be based on earnings after
1950 instead of alter 1936. The
amended law provides a new for
mula for determining the amount
of the payments in these cases.
Under it, a retired worker's mon
thly benefit would be 55 per cent
of the first r$IOO o f his average
monthly earnings plus 15 per cent
of the remainder up to $300.
A representative of this office
w ill be in M ocksville again on
August I3th, at the court house,
second floor, at 12:30 p. m ., and
on the same date In Cooleemee,
at the old Band H all, over Led
ford’s Store, at 11 a. m.
British Coal Production 1$ Increasing Steadily
British coal production h^is beeri
going up steadily ever since- the w*ar. Last year it was 21 per cent
higher than in 1045.
The miners have begun 1962 well, with a record-breaking production
in the first six weeks of 532,000 tons
above the level of a sim ilar period
a year ago. Tlie m ining labor forca
has risen to 705,300. fron* 696,500 a
year ago. Shifts worked per m iner are up; overall output per m anshift
is up by 21 per cent since 1045, to an all-time high of 1.21 tons; coal
exports so far this year are running 30 per cent higher than In I9S1; tim e
lost by strikes is less than half w hat it was before the war. •
B ut Britain Is still not producing as much coal as her own expanding
industries require, nor is she exporting as much coal as her Euro
pean allies w ant M uch more m echanization m ust be carried out be
fore the British pits are properly modernized.
Women Are Helplni OltUi
Solve Their Labor Noedi
Cities faced with Increasing com petition for employees from expand

problems.
According to the Am erican M u

Police Departm ent and wear uid« forms. They w ill be stationed along
the city’s downtown business streetaduring peak traffic hours to prevent
motorists from parking in m oving traffic lanes.
Norfolk. Va., is experim enting with the use of- women as stree

hired on a trial basis to w ork side
