This ProfeMor Need* Your
Old Whale Hairs, PleaieAny old whale hairs around th« house? Qr. Leon A. Hausman, Rut* sera University professor, would like to have them.Dr. Hausman, orintholostst and national]y>famcd hair rescorcher.
confessed to Watson DaWs on CBS’ "Adventures in Science'* program recently that his hair collection Is •fresh out” of whale hairs. It seems that they are extremely bard to find, even on a whale.The whales, even the 100>ton variety, have only a few. That’s part of the problem. There are Just a few around the huge mam« mal’s mouth. Then too, there Is the difficulty of collecting them. ^Having so few, whales won’t peacefully stand around while their hair is pulled—that is, if you could get that close.Whale hairs occupied only part of Mr.,Davis* Interview with the noted Rutgers University scientist.
Dr. Hausman's long-standing pre« occupation with hair began when he was assigned to compare mi* croscopically his own hair with that of a 6,000*year*old Egyptian mummy as the subject* oC his Cornell doctoral thesis.Since then his reputation In the field has taken him into law courts as an export witness in cases rang> ing from hlt>and>run driving to murder. He has established In court whether a fur coat was a genuine $7,500 mink or a $1,200 dyed imitation.He has worked with archeologlsfs who found Indian robes in Arizona caves. Whether they were made of hairs of bison or of sheep could solve the date of their manufac* ture since sheep were known to have been introduced by the Span* Ish at a certain date.
Plants, Like People, May
Store Up too Much Fat
Plants, like animals, store up large amounts of fat for the fu> ture. Acetic acid, a major con* stltuent of vinegar, plays an Im* portant part In the buildu p of this fat supply in peanuts, according to recent experiments by P. K. Stumpf, division of plant blochem* Istry, and Guggenheim Fellow Eldon H. Newcomb. University of California college of agriculture.Acetic- acid molcculcs, two*car* bon units, are converted into longer fatty acid chains. Fatty acids, in turn, are built Into 16* to'18*car* bon fat molcculcs.Immature, living peanut seeds were sliced Into thin sections and bathed in different radioactive compounds for several iiours. The radioactive compounds chosen were various carbon-containing materials that might be converted into fatty acids. 't
By measuring ihc radioactive fatty acids formed In the seed sections, it was found that acetic acid contributed most to fatly acid for* mation. Such sugars as glucose and fructose form the fatty acid precursor—acetic acid—which is then converted Into the fatty acid chains.These experiments show that both plants and animals use much the same methods of building up fats from smaller carbon mole
cules.
She Will Cry Probably only one woman In Australia will shod tears when the atom bomb experts blast the Monte Bello Islands from their coral beds some time this year. She’s Mrs.J. C. Taylor of Parkerville, Western Australia. To Mrs. Taylor, the supposedly bare, bleak Island group is a tropical paradise of colorful coral reefs, alive with fish, turtles and tasty oysters, “I’m not a nrst*ciass flsher-woman.” Mrs. Taylor maintains, "but on Monle Bello you just can’t help catching them. You toss In your line and pull out a schnappor.” Mrs. Tay. lor’5 visits to Monte Bello usually Involved anchoring off-shore In luggers or fishing vessels, as the Islands have no fresh water. Ono time, however, the Parkerville woman and her family did camp out on the now famous atolls. “Crawling turtles and rats woke us up,” she recounts, "and we end*. ed up sleeping with our boots on.” The Monte Bello Islands, off the north*west coast of Western Aus* tralla, have been named by the Australian and BriUsh Governments as the site of atomic experiments to be carried out later this

Power for Need
. Lesson for November 2, 1953
npHEIlE %re various kinds of A power, and this lesson is not about most of them. For example there Is mechanical power, and atomic power, and electrical power, There Is armed force exerted by a nation, and there are all the forces of nature. We are not concerned directly with any of these. We will think not of one
particular kind of power, but of any kind which is personally controlled and used, the power that every one has. Practically all human beings exert some kind of power. It may be the power of influence; it may be based on money j It may be pollt* ical or social; It may be power to command, such as if held by sea- captains and labor bosses and office managers. The reader Is invited to reflect on his own situation and concentrate his mind on whatever power, be it ever so small, which he hUnseU exercises or can exercise when he pleases. Very few persons are complete Zeros.
w ♦ • •
Purposes oC P rayer Is it wrong, that is to say. un- Christian. to wish to be strong? Of course not. There Is surely no virtue in weakness. To wish to bo weak, or to be content with weakness, la no sign of a Christian. It depends on the motive behind the desire. Now power can be had. or wished for, for various reasons, bad and good. Some people like to be strong Just to show off. A boy goes around bending his arm nnd showing the other boys what big muscles he has. just bragging. That may be all right for a boy (though the boaster Is pretty sure to bMhrown sooner or later). But when a grown man does the same tiiing he is just being childish. However, this Is harmless compared with another common mis* use of power; that is. using it to
build op more power. We can sec It In politicians who hold on to important^ positions even though they could be more useful In pri* vate life and though a dozen other men could do their job quite well as they can. We can see it even In the church, where some men like to get on and stay on important committees because then they can “crack the whip" over their brethren. Worst and meanest of all mis-uses of power Is using it to burl and crush others. We can see examples I of this on the na* , tional scale, all through history. It. scales all the way down to the blackmailer, who uses some bit of scandal that he knows about to ruin the lives of perhaps much better men.-• • •
Jesus and H is Power Now Christians have always before them an example of tremendous power, gently and generously used. Readers of this column will be divided into two classes. Some will take the stories of Jesus' miracles quite litterally. Others will suppose that some of these stories may have been exaggerations of
Joyal memory. Let those who aroy skeptical about the miracle-stories give a thought to this: Even grant
ing. for the sake of the argument, that every one of these miracle- stories is a ••made-up’’ one; they surely would never have been invented about a weak man; and they never would have been told about a selfish one. The historians who are most full of doubts about Jesus agree and admit that he was a man of extraordinary power.
And even If you thought <as this writer docs not) that most of the tales of Jesus were wonder-tales and no more, the fact remains thut these tales, every one of them, shows a Jesus who never ^ses power to show off, never uses It “just because,’’ and seven times never uses It to hurt any one.
Power fo r Need
Jesus gives us the right Christian line. “As he Is. so are we in this world,” said one of his friends.. Power Is given us. as all the gifts of life are, for use In the name of God and the help of man. What- ever power we have, we possess as stewards. It makes no differ
ence how obscure we may be. every one of us has some degree of power, of some kind. It may be a mother with her.chl^rcn, a teacher with his pupil's, :>n older child with younger children, a business man with many employees, a Judge on the bench or an officer In a 4-H club—if our decisions affect the Ufe of even one other,person, then God will ask us: Did your power hurt others, or help?

Hundreds of new homeii have
been built in Davie County dur*

and many new stores and busi

in and around M ocksviile. What
our town needs today are more

who have finished high school
and college. We cannot keep our
young people in Mocksviile and
Davie without they can secure em
plovment. Let’s get busy and try
to secure some new manufactur- ing pla.its.

Six pollUeal job holders were eairying tbd body of a man who had been killed into an undertaker’s establishment. The undertaker was very much annoyed. •'Why," he asked, “didn't you brine this man's body here at three o’clock, as you promised? It's now after six.""Sorry,” replied Ihe leader, "but

PAGB EOUR
Dr. Foriman
THE OAVIE RECORD. MOCKSVILLE N. C. SOVBMBER 6 1962
Ar e Americans becoming bru* talized? Some thoughtful peo*
pie believe we are. As Dr. Charles
T. Leber reports, when his tather and mother read the account ot
the tinking of the
Lusitania back
before World War I. they were so
upset they could
not eat. Now we can read about
the destruction of
an entire city
and go right on
eating breakfast.We in Amcrlca
invented and used the A-bomb and now we con«
celve the H*bomb. We train men to kill other men with flaming Jellied
gasoline, with knives, with what
ever seems to be most usable and deadly. We kUi people on the high*
ways, or we don't do enough to keep them from killing themselves.
In such quantities that wc don’t
even read the newspaper reports about it unless some friend of ours
happened to be in the smash. If as
many people died in your town of
polio, br of typhoid fever, as die
in accidents, you would all be in al
most a panic.
A Word Wc Need
There is an old English word
that is not used often nowadays.
Maybe thc reason it is seldom used is that the thing it means is seldom
m et with. It is the word “compaB. sion.” Literally, it means "suffer-
ing-with.” When It is said by Mat*
thew that Jesus had compassion on the crowds, it moons literally that
he knew how they felt, what they
needed, where they hurt; and that
In his own heart he suffered with
them. Their needs were his needs,
their pain his pain. That is com
passion; but It is not yet the whole of it. There is something more. An
artist (let us say a novelist) has to have compassion, oi a sort. Many
novels and stories .have been w ritten. for Instance, about bull*flght>
ers, and some of thc story«tellers
have shown a high degree of imaginative power. You might almost
fancy they had been bullfighters
themselves, as to be sure some of them have been. But few if any
of these story-writers have done anything-to put a stop to the briital
sport of bull-fighting. They fee] the
tragedy of the whole business yet they do not propose to do anything
about it. Compassion, as Jesus felt
it. never was a mere enlotion. It
was emotion harnessed to action.
H arrasscd ami Helpless
The Revised Standard Version
translates beautifully Matthew’s
description of the crowds w ho,
moved .Tesus to compassion. They
were “harassed and helpless,*' he says. The inturesting thing is that
it took Jesus to see this. Some
could see only that .here were a lot of people, and they took up a
lot of room, and there was hardly room or time for Jesus to eat.
Others—the Pliariseos—could sec
only their Ignorance: “This multi
tude that knows not the law is ac
cursed.” Others <as was the case with the disciples on n later occa
sion) realized only that the crowd
looked huncry- Well, thc people
' were numerous, they were no
doubt ignorunt, and most of them were chroniCHll.y lll-fed. But th,e
point Is, the people who saw them in this Ilf!ht did not have com-
paslon. nil they felt was annoy
ance. Thc crowds were a nuisance. Jesus felt quite different toward
them. He saw them as they were,
. harassed and helpless. You your
self run into crowds, or you read
about them.’ How do they strike you? Do they frighten you, amuse
you, annoy you or make you angry? I'he masses today are very
litUe different from thc masses in
Jesus' time. Can you see them as they arc. hnrnssed and helpless?
And does it sth* ynti to do something about it? Then you know
something about thc compassion
ate heart.
T h e In m o s t N e ed
•There is another Important laet
about Jesus* compassion. One cannot call it unique, for the best
Christians have shared it. He was
able to see beneath the surface of things to people's real needs. The
young m an brought by his four
friends to Jesus probably was
thinking chiefly about his helpless
arms and legs. Jesus looked and saw his helpless soul. The publi
can Matthew may well have felt
sorry for himself because business was bad, or because he was not
popular. Jesus' compassion went deeper; he felt Matthew's real
need—to get away, from the publi
can business altogether. Compassion goes even deeper than sym
pathy; it is spiritual interpreta
tion.

Noggin, Piggin and Treen
Were Heard in Early USA
'Trcen'* in Us earliest use was a plural for “tree'*. Laier the word
was applied to woodenware gen
erally. “Noggin", a small wood mug, was a common Item of the
treen trade of 150 years ago. So
was the “piggin” , a baby bucket
that had a stave sticking up to
serve as a dipping handle.
The noggin and thc piggin were
prime tools in fam ily life when Abraham Lincoln was a boy and
water was commonly carried by
hand to house from spring, creek or well. They were also prized as
measures in the sale of whisky
when it retailed at a penny a snort and at 25 ccnts per gallon
iug—with the consumer providing his own jug.
Whisky not only came cheap but
American blood ran hot in those
days. Duels were fought, and these
very often, with noggins or pigglnx for weapons. The piggin preceded
the bungstarter as an instrument
for enforcing peace in the common
saloon, history records.

There Is a passage of Scrlpttire
found in Proverbs 8:10 which savs,
I saw the wicked burled, who had
come and gone from tbe place of
the.holv. and they-were ..forj^otten
in tbe city wbere they had so done,
this is also vanity."
How soon wicked people are for*
gotten by the public, and by suc
ceeding generations, when they are
buried 1. Many of them never have
a tombstone t o their grave, and
certainly no ..monument. Others
mar have their grave marked by a
tombstone, or even a monument of
granite or marble, but nobody goea
there, looks on, weeps nud rises up
and calls them blessed. Why? Be.
canse they lived .for.the devil, left
God out of their lives, destroyed
much good, and left no lufluenre
behind to uplift and bless tbe lives
of their feilpwmeo.:
Had you ever thou^t about
those who h9ve .come and gone
from chnrcb, and the.,p1aces of re
vivals, and where Ood's people as.
sembled for worship^' who died
wltbout'.God? T^ey had. the glo*
:rl6us opportnnltv, time and again,
of repenting and being saved, from
all their sins, of being sanctified,
and of living a wonderful Chris
tian life ,, but thev didn't,; No doubt
many of tbem were proved for,
were applied to In regard to tb'elr
soul's salvation, even wept over,
but th^v; turned their frleuds away,
turned God away, turned Jesus a«
way, tur^ned tbe Holv Spirit away,
and went' on and on in sin and
wickedness until death. Careless*
ly they put off their salvailon until
It was’eternally too late ^ to make
peace with God, then die a^ they
bad lived without God. Hownad to
live aniid‘;so many golden -opportu*
nitles In life, and the supreme op-
portutiliy'of redemption and eternal
salvation, but neglecting them all.
even sometimes spurning salvation,
then die and go to the grave and belt
Tbe*memory of tbe vast multitudes
of such people Is soon forgotten, al-
though the evil thev did. the good
they des'royed, lasts 00 and on as
tbe years and ages roll by.
If you go Into tbe cemeteries of
our nations todav vou w ill see
graves with no markers except a
bare rock 00 name upon it, or
view thousands of graves with
tomb rocks to them, and the names
of those on tbe tomb rocks who
are'bnrled beneath thnm, but verv
few people wbo are living know
anytblg about their lives especially
if tbev lived in sin and died with,
but God. Gone and forgotten.
How pathetic! If they bad. livtd
for God their memories would have
lived on.

they had experienced, began to go
through his pockeU. They were
baffled to find that the whole treas*
ure which the' Scot had been de.
fending at the hazard of his life
was a bent sixpence.
“ Only a sixpence." exclaimed
one of thc disgusted rogues, nurs* ing his bruises.“Weel, we're lucky at that,'* said

Our County And
Social Security
Bv W . K . W hite. Manager.
An Importnnr change In the so*
cial security law took place In luly
which is of special interest to ser
vicemen and their survivors,
i As a result of this new provl*
sion. m ilitary service from Sept
ember 16. 1940 to Dcccmber 31,
1953, can count toward social se*
curitv payments. To survivors of
scrvicemcn. this ' may mean that
they can now be paid monthly
benefits, even (hough they mav
not have been eligible for them
before this change in the law was
' made.
The 1952 amendments provide
social security wage credit of $160
per month for m ilitarv service
h-om July 24, 1947, through De
cember 31, 1953. Thc wagecreditfc
for m ilitarv service after the end
of W orld W ar I I count both to*
v>ard survivors benefits and rc«
tirement benefits for months after
August 1952, but do not count to
ward lumpsum death payments
where the serviceman died before
September 1952. As a result of
thc new law. m ilitarv service from
September 16, 1940 through Dc
ccmber 31, 1943, can count to»
ward social security payments.
Wage credits arc posted to the
veteran’s account at the time the
appllcatiyn is processed for bene
fits. Proof of rhe period of ser
vice is required only at >the time
of appllcatio i. Therefore, veter*
themselves do not need to take
any action now to establish the
wage credits.
It is believed that many surviv*
ors do not know or have over
looked thc foct that social securi'
curitv benefits may now be pay
able CO them. If you have never
inquired or if you have not in*
quired since the President signed
the new Social Security B ill July
18, 1952), you should do so
promptly at your nearest social se*
curity office.

I m m o r t - a l T w e l v e
Lesson for Novem ber 16,1952
IF the twelve Apostles wanted to
join your church, would you let
them InT Peter MarBhall thousM not. Books ol sermons are often
dull reading, taut Dr. Marshall's
book called Mr.
Jones, Meet the
Master Is as las*
elnaUng a book
as you are likely
to lind anywhere.
One of his famous
sermons goes
over an imagined
application of the twelve Apostles
for membership
in a typical American church. One by one each
man Is relected>-aU but Judas! As a m an of money the church wants
his services.• * *
Unprom ising M aterial
Not to steal Peter Marshall*s sermon, nor to spoil your appeUtt
tor it in ease you do read It, but just to explore the possibilities,
let’s imagine yourself passing on
the application of these men tor
church membership. There Is Si>
mon Peter . . , Well! He Is a fish*
erman and a sailor, and you know
what sailor's language is. Bome> limes. A m an noted for talking be
fore he thinks. Not among our best
people (they would say in Caper,
naum ): lives down by the docks
somewhere, smells of fish. No edu> cation, very limited background.
Better wait. Maybe he could find a little chapel down nearer his work
he’d be happier there. And then
there's Jam es and his brother John. Hot-tempered and ambitious,
in fact so conceited they're hard to live with. They would certainly
want to be at the top—if thrones
are passed out they will want one
apiece In the front row. If they
are crossed they are likely to call
’ down fire from heaven—not that
they'll get it, but that’s the kind of young men they are. No, they will
be too hot to handle. Let them go
join some sect that wlU give their
emotions a chance. We’ll be toe
slew and too cold for them.« • •
N olodics
Then there is Thomas, for In
stance. Just the oposlte of Peter.
A cold, gloomy man. Takes the ^ark view of everything. VHiat you
w ant In the church Is men of faith,
and this is a m an who Is sure to
be called the Doubter. Skepticism
is contagious, we have enough
doubters now without electing an- ■
other one. Let's leave him out. Then there is Philip, a stupid m an
te ever you saw one. You can say a ■ thing to him over and over and he
still won't get it. And Bartholomew
and Thaddaeus or Lebbaeus or
whatever his name is. and another
Jam es and another Simon—thelrv names are common and so are.
they. Just who are they, the whole lot of them? Nobodles, that's all
you can say. Can you name one
that has made a name for himself outside his native village—or in it, **
for that matter? What have they
got to contribute? Haven't we got
enough dead wood In the church as
it is without adding some more
people who w ill be nothing but
names? Seems to me the pastor must have been scraping the bot
tom of the barrel-these men certainly didn't come from the top.• • •
Jesus Made Difforcnce
Even worse than all that could
have been said of some of the Twelve. There was one very doubt
ful character among them, the
m an Matthew the Publican. Pub
licans were tax-collectors for the
Rom an government. No one re
spected them; Jesus himself used
the name Publican as meaning the
lowest class of men. Who knew
how slnccre Matthew was when he
Joined the Twelve? There was also Judas, Im m ortal for another rea
son; who was and who remained a
devil. Jesus csllod two ol these
men devils' at different tim ei;
Judas stayed one, but Peter
changed. That lets us in to the
secret of why Jesus chose these
particular mon. It was not for what - they were at the time, not for any
thing they had accomplished, but
for what he could do with them,
that Jesus choso these men. He
selected them lor o particular rea
son: that they should go out and tell
other men about him; To be ready
to do this, they were to spend some
time in close contact with him. When these men went out to speak
for Jesus and the Kingdom of God
they knew what they were talking
about . . . and they were differ
ent men. AU but Judas, who missed
his Ufa’s great chance. For these
other men-had let Christ have his ,
y a y with them. That Is whet the ' Church is and ought to be; the
community of men end women who
are being transformed, by Chrlsi.
for service In his name.

In Irish CaHU Fain ^
Colorful Irish livestock (tdrs. tar
centuries important In Ireland's
rural life, are decreasing In num>
ber but w ill never disappear completely,
^This is the conclusion of Jos
eph P. Haughton, lecturer In geog* raphy at Trinity College, Dublin.
Mr. Haughton points out that
while fairs are held In a network of
Irish towns of 1,900 to S.COO popu
lation, they are not the same thing
as the weekly markets of English or continental European country
towns.
The fairs, which can be traeed back to the fourteenth century, are
held as often as once a month.
They are essential to the Irish
farmer tor the sale of his young
cattle and sheep, and to a lesser
extent of other livestock. In the
past almost all livestock In Ireland was sold at fairs, but fattened
cattle and hogs ore now sold large
ly to buyers who appear at Individ
ual farms.The decrease in the number of
country fairs has been marked in
the past 100 years. Mr. Houghton
says that In 1832 such gatherings,
often attended by much of the
rural polulntion In a village or
town area, numbered 1.297. as
compared to 002 In 1952.
An Indlcntion of the decrease of
social function of the fairs'is noted
by Mr. Haughton in the increasing
nppcarance of auctioneers. Cattle
sales at fairs formerly were made
almost entirely In deals between
farmer and buyer, after protracted barRai’nln« often compromised, by a
third parly, or "tangler.”
Slitsh Cost of the House, >
Save Koney on Mortgage
Better planning and careful
drawing of the contract can slash
the cost of a house and save money
on-a mortgaire.
Since the major part of the pur
chase price of a new home will
have to be borrowed, the mort-
guge put on a home today will determine for years to come, wheth
er you will have a home you own
or be tied to a home that "owns"
you.
To gel the best terms, you should know what. Is being offered by the
lending institution.
Whether you are building or buy-
mg. you can save on a mortgage
by sticking to easily marketable property, desirable locatlon.s near
schools, shopping and transportation. “Stay away from freak lay-
outs, untried construction materi
als and plumbing equipment.”In securing a mortgage contract,
you should inquire with the lending

HeadllA'bl Eyes
Native did not provide the
human eye with very good equip
ment to deal with the dazzling glare of aulomobiie headlights at
j night. Headlights arc a man-made
invention which did not exist when eyes were being adapted to nor
m al outdoors conditions, over ages
of evolution. Nevertheless, the eyes
make a manful effort to combat
headlight glare, and they do a pretty good job nt it. The first de
fense against the dazzle of on
coming lights is the pupil of the
eye,'with its m*»rvelcus ability to
ccntrael and evpnnd. and thus vary the amount of light entering the
eye. When cncruntering a rapid increase tn br r^'tnesp. as from an
approach!^* headlight, the pupil
Is able t' ''vrensc its area by 80 per cent in three seconds, as
though It drawing a curtain
over n'.ost of the eye's window. Behind th!.c curtain, the nerves of
the retina have a chance to adapt
. themselves lo the brighter light,
.And that takes more time. The
retina, however, is much better able to adapt to changes In bright
ness than is the pupil. At Us
smallest size, the area of the pupil
is one-fourleenth of Its largest pos«
sible. size. But .he difference in
brightness between a dork road
. and a" headlight Is much greater
than that.

celved him; tor they were waiting
for him.*'
Je9us bad been In Gadara where
He tnet a man possesed with a le>
glon.of demons, ane by H is mighty
power had cast them all out. The
man was then clothed and restored
tinto bis right mind, wblch Is one
the great miracles of our I«ord«
However, tbe demons wenr Into a
herd of swine which caused tbrm
to run violently down a sleep place
Into a lake, where they were sll
drowned. This aroused tbe nager
of the owners of the swine, there,
fore they asked Him to leave their
communiiv. Th is lesus did, for
He won't stay where He Is not
wanted, either In a heart, a bome»
or a community.
Ferhapps this mlrable o f His
power bad spread abroad, there,
fore the people ovar In Capernaum
were walling for H is return. They
wanted to see Him and be with
Him. How different a re men!
One thing that some bate and de.
splse may be lust what another
wants. This Is especially trne In
regard to Jesus and salvation. 80
many don’t won't. him, therefore,
drive conviction away, when His
holy spirit visits their hearts and
souls, in the meantime driving Jesus
away. Others want Jesus, want
salvatloii, therefore welcome Him
into their hearts, souls and homes. Those who drive convictions and Christ away open tbe heart and
mind, soul and spirit for tbe devil
to come In and take full possession. Those who want Christ to come In open their hearts and lives to re
ceive Him, and He casts tbe evil
spirit and sin out and prepares
them for heaven.
Here is jnat a little thought I wont you to get; as the people In
Caoernaum were waiting for fesus
to return from Gadara, &o bis peo. pie are waiting today fo r. H is re. turn from heaven to earth tbat they may be caught up In tbe rap
ture and live with him forever.
Every real Christian Is waiting for the Master* and are anxious for H is reture. They want to see Him be with Him and worship Him for.

Is coming again. Let us patiently waft. His return is very near.

Books and Bathing Siiitt
Have Sofflethine in Commiin
"It'S possible that books and
bathing suits may have something
In common." ;\.ys note^ Duke Uni*
versity English Professor Allan H
Gilbert. How can they?
"Fashions In elothos and fash
ion in literature have always been mirrors of society," the eminent
Renaissance scholar explains,
"and il is interesting lo note how the two often reflect similar fca* lures.”
Today the similarity seems lo be
between the comparative informality of modern dress and the tend
ency to use' informal every«dny
language and events in our modern literature, he says.
For example, today's young men and women are much mere sensi
bly dressed for some activities than their grandparents.
After all. Professor Gilbert says,
shorts are most suited for tennis, breeches for horseback riding, and
so on. And swimming Is certain* ly much simpler without skirts,
hose, and shoes.But some of today's clothing is
neither very practical nnr very
artistic, in Professor Gilbert's opin*
Ion. "High heels, many hats, and
such garments as slraplct dross
es are designed in such a way as
to deny the very shape of the body,” he says
"Somehow, in spite ol the rcia live simplicity of some of rui
clothing, we seem detcrmini'd in
the long run to gel away from naturalness."
But the ladies arc not thi* only
ones at fault.

Old-age and survivors Insurance
is the basic rcdremenc and family
income protection for 8 out of
every 10 paid civilian workers,
A rccent survey conducted na
tion*wlde revealed that among
those families now receiving Fed
eral old age tns.irance benefits. 30
per cent had no other money in
come, or lcs« dian $75 per year
per person. The survey showed
that 72 per ccnr ner year of the
retired worlcers on the rolls had
other money income of less than
$600 a year. Th is pomts out the
lireat extent to which retired wor
kers of today are dependant upon
the Federal family insurance pro
tection provided by the social se
curity system.
Younger workers are more im
mediately interested in the death
benefit protection provided bythis
law. Over 62.3 m illion workers
are now fully insured under this
system. This means that In the
event of the untimely death of
these workers or self-employed
persons, their surviving children,
widows, dependent widowers or
dependent parents, would receive
cash income.
Social securiiy benefits are as.
suming a greater importance, in
the future planning of all covered
workers and self-employed people
as borne out by the national sur
vey of persons receiving the bene
fit payments. Therefore, it. Is of
the utmost importance that these
I individuals protect their insured
status by always using but one so
cial security number. Also, make
sure that eaeh and every emyloyer
has an accurate record of the
name and number shown on your
social security card so that all ear
nings reported for you w ill be
I credited to your individual old
‘ age and survivors insurance ac-
'count.

Thanking God
Lesson for Novemlior 23,19S*
I
u r rorem an
T 15 hard to imagijte Josus ob*serving exnctly one day. In the
year, no more, os a Thanksgiving day. This is not to say that the idea
0/ a ThnnksfilvlnB Day is a bad one. The Jews of ancient limes, whose
religious observances Jesus closely kept, had a whole week of celebra
tions in the fall, corresponding
somewhal to our ThanksBivJng day.
But Jesus’ heart of gratitude was
not to be Umited by the calendar.
M istnkcs A b otit T itnnksgtving
There or« at (cost three mistakes
which are commonly made wJWj
reference lo Thanksgiving day. Wo
Christian people
make the miS'
take of limiting our ihoiigltts of
gratitude to one day. We count
our blessings on this one day of
all the year; wo
go on a kind ol
"binge" of gratl*
tudo.
Another sort ot
”’“w .even of those who are called Cl>rls-
tlans. Is to use the day for purposes
[hat have nothing at all to do witb wnrBhijjful gratitude
to God for his blessings of the year past, the day is commonly used by
many tor cnting ioo much or for getting drunk at fooibnJl games.
* day lo ushei-in Ihe Christmas season. In fact,
not M many years ago the com
mercial intarests of the country
were Bueces.sfjjl Jn pushing the day back a whole week just In order to
have a longer season In which to
sell 'Christm as" merchandise.
But the purpose of the day Is not
to make money or to win tootbn)!
games or to got stulTcd with turkey.• • * •
G rncc Before Shnkcspcare
third mistake Is to be thankful lo r on}y one kind ot thing} namely,
m aterial blessings such as food, security, good crops and good busl-
ness. Now our Lord was grateful for such things. More than once wd
read of Mb taking bread and giving
thanks for It. B ut as he knew that m an docs not livo by bread alono
«o m an sliould not givu thajjka for bread alone. Most of Jesus’ prayisrs
of thanksgiving are for other and
higher blosi^ings.
Some well-known writer once
commented on our custom of saying “Grace before m e a f—the old
expression for what la now often
caMed “askteg the WossJng’' at the
table. Has God no other blessings
for us?
When a person aits down with a
great play <say by Shakespeare) in
his hand, why not a “Grace before Shakespeare?" How many of
us have a little prayer of thanks* giving before reading a book of iw tr y or going out to look up at the
starry sky on a clear night, or before opening a letter from an old
friend or before going to the hos
pital or the dentist? (Yes, indeed;dentist may not seem like a
blessing, but try to stand a tooih-
ache all by yourself, or try to Im
agine golrtg to hie office, ar io the hospital, before the days of modern
medicine, surgery. X-rays, anesthetics and sanilatloni)• • •
Blessing s of the SpirU
J « u « ' prajTjr of thanksgiving. Which our lesson Scripture rccords,
however, is on a higher plane still, p ie particular blessing for which
he thanks the Lord of heaven and earth is in tho first place a spiritual
one, and in the second place it is not something that came to him
but to some one else. He thanks O od.that a spiritual light has been
seen by bis most bumble friends.
Can We say that many of
prayers are on this high level?
ftUny of us never get beyond the
QJm m e’* stage. And even among
those who do rise to the level of real thanksgiving. It is rare enough
to find those who are grateful not only for their own blessings but for
thM e received by others? and how seldom does God hear any note of
praiM for blessings of the splrltl
‘th is is a high plane, to be
reached only by high souls, those
who. have been iiHimate enough
with. Christ to absorb his spirit and
altitude. Stupid people, who do not
have very good minds, cannot be
expected to appreciate blessings of tte jn ind ; and people with sm all
and wizened souh cannot feel blessings of the spirit. And only
those who practice the Golden Rule every day, so as lo pul themselves
into others' places, and who culti
vate ihe gift of sympathy so as to “rejoice with those that rejoice and.
weep w ith those that weep," can have the heart to be thankful when
others receive the highest bless-
'ngs of heaven.

‘'Accidents klU about 6.000 children between the ages of one and
four every year," Dr. Wheatley
reiwrted. ‘'The natural drive in
children to expJore ihe bright new
world, to put objecu in their mouth
and to clim b and run about all
combine with immaturity of body
and m ind and Inadequate parental
teaching and supervision to contribute to this appftlling loss of
young Jives.
■•Ftiller understanding of child
behavior, greater use of minor in*
Juries as learning experiences, and
keener awareness of the accidents
likely to occur arc guides to par*
ents in 'immunizing* the preschool
child against serious injury or un
timely death.’*He cited' the experience of an
insurance company. Detwecn IflM and 1947, the death rate of insured
children tmder five from all dis
eases combined declined 70 per
cent. The accldcnt death rate
dropped only 23 ;M>r cent.
"The chief weapon against the
common childhood diseases has
been immunizatfon,'’ Dr. Wheattcy
said. **Agaln.<st accldcnls. the m ain
weapon Is education—particularly
of parents."Motor vehicle mishaps, he said,
are ihe most common cause of rttal injuries, with burns a close
recond. Drowning, fallF and poi.^on-
ing arc other m ajor causes, witb almost half of these accidents oc
curring in or around the home.
Painting Isn’t as Easy
As It Looks to Beginner
Painting is something almost
anyone can do—about 60 per cent
of all householders have taken to pushing their own paint brushes.
But as any person who has botched up a home paint job can
testify, painting Isn’t as easy as it
looks. There are rules to follow and
pitfalls to avoid.
A common mistake Is to paint when the weather is too hot or too
damp. Authorities advise that Pall
is the best Ume ot the year for
painting. They say the weather
then is most likely to be cool and
dry.Since using the right tools makes
any job easier, the amateur palnt- ei would do well to give careful
thought to Ihe selecUon of fils
paintbig equipment.Paint Is ol first importance It
pays to buy good quality paint that
is made especially for the type of
surface on which ?t Is to be applied.Other painting eouipmenl norm*
Insurance ciaiises, periods of nraee, IS anything b<8.*:|d6s the house in
cluded as security, can changes
be mtuU In the house without the
consent of the lender, etc.
It is normal ihat once you sec the
house of your dreams you want to
be cosily installed In It. but he
warns about over eagerness lo the
extent of becoming blind to the
mortgage requirements.
Reeling Silk
Reeling the »ilk is the process of
unwinding It fron the cocoon, onto
silk reels . . . a process whlcli has
undergone many refinoments but
no essential changes since the days of Hsi-Iing-shl. Hot water. In
basin«;, is still used to melt the serl-
cin. to make It possible to unwind
the cocoon. A single silk filament
is far too fine for reeling, so several cocoons are unwound at the
same time. and. as they bob about
together in the basin, their fila
ments are drawn together. By a
simple 5y.<;tem of pulleys, the filaments are drawn through a tiny
porcelain eye. and the melted serl- cin, which glued the cocoon, now
glues ihe silk filaments Into a
single thread. This thread passes over a couple of pulleys to double
back on itself for a twist that
wrings out any remaining water,
and then on lo (he reel. <It is later
rc-reeled and twisted Into skeins).
By this time, the sericln has hard
ened. and the silk thread has a
Miff, halr-like leel. The sericln will
be boiler: off. eilher before or after
weaving, to uncover the natural
beauty of the silk.
Woman's Heart
A woman’s heart, i^opular songs
notwlthstnndiiiR. is not as vulnerable as we have been led to be
lieve. The An'icrican Heart Assn.
re|)orts that for the past 20 years
the heart disease death rate has
t>een on the decline for women and on the rise for men Thcr«; Is no
greater danger, however, for men
or women, of dying from heart
disease today than there v/as 50
years ago. The increased numbers
are due, the association says, part
ly to the aging population and partly to improved diagnosis (many
heart disease deaths ot 50 years
ago were unrecognized as such).
Keeping Watermelon
C>ut watermelon tends to develop
a rubbery surface and dry out If
left in your refrigerator without adequate moisture-prbtectlon. And
everybody knows what happens
when the noble cantaloupe is re-
frigerated without a jacket. Pretty
thing . . . but w hat an odor! So
, here's a thought: press a sheet of
^ moisturejiroe/ freezer cellophane
r’ against the cut surface of your
1 m*1on. and tape the edges back i against the Btdn with cellophane
tape. TU» holds aroma and mols.

A good way to make un opthal*
.):iv specialist shudder Is to pull
your eyeglasses woy down toward
the tip cf your nose when you read,
fo to sure, the glasses magnify tn that position, but a large
;ari oi their value is ruined.
For glasses do much more than
just magnify. When properly
placed before your eyes, Uiey cor
rect errors of vision. They focus
Ihe print so that the letters are
sharp; they eliminate blur; they
avoid double vision; and they prevent the distortion of the print due
to astigmatism. All this is sacrificed when the glasscF are nof correctly placed.
The lens of the eyeglass and the
natural lens of your eye should
form a single cpUcal system, operating as one. But they can do that
only If the glasses arc kept In ex* acdy the right position. It is the
j*b of ophthalmic specialists to see that your glass lenses arc pre
cisely suited to your individual
needs and that they arc so placed as to combine properly with your eyes.
Once your Individual require .
ments have been established by a thorough examination, the delicate
operations of grinding, gaugiiu and
. polishing the lenses must be per
formed. Then the specialist meas
ures the. distance between your pup’ls so that when your lenses are
placed in their frames or mount
ings the optical axis of each lens
may be exactly matched with the
pupil of each eye. Furthennore. he makes sure (hat each lens is at
the correct distance in front of each eye and that it if set at the
right angle.And even that Isn’t all.. The
frames, the nosepiece. and the ear
pieces must be adjusted so that the
glasses will be completely comfort
able and you will not be tempted •n move them out of place.
Harbor Improvemenf

The free-wheeling, free-trading ihtematlonal city of Tangier on
North Africa’s Atlantic coast plans to spend $4,500,000 on improverrient
of Its crowded and Inadequate harbor.
A postwar booi.i In population
and construction makes better port
factJlities essential. Steel. lumber
and cement for Tangier’s building program must be Imported. Pres
ent port facilities are largely tak

with such points as Marseille, Bor

Our County And
Social Security
B v W .K . W hite. Manager.
A t the present time, nine out
of ten persons in the United
States who work for a livins are
earning retirement protec tio n .
Three out of every four jobs are
covercd by rhe old-age and survi
vors insurance provisions of the
Social Security Act.
The importance of the old*aee
and survivors insurance program
to the nation is easily recognised.
During its 16 vears of operation,
it has bccome the nation's basic
family itvsurance prosram and has
played a major role in maintain
ing the home and in upholding
family stabiUty and contitiiuicy.
The primary purpose of the pro*
' gram Is to provide a foundation
o f family protection and to mini*
mize the serious financial results
of(old«age and premature death.
w The 8WOUS iinandal problems
which! confront families when
their income is reduced ot elimi'
nated as a result of old age
death of the bread-winner are
concern of all communities. So*
cial security benefits have made It
possible In many instances for bc>i
neficiarics to remain economically
independent. These benefits have
enabled many beneficiaries to be
self-supporting in their own homesj
and others to pay their share of
expenses in a jolnthousshold with
relatives or friends. The benefits
received from diis fam ily insur*
ance program are making it pos-|
sible to keep families together and
at the same time, are slowing
down che rate ac which savings
dnd other assets must be used up.
The drain on both public and

A good Davie Democrat was
saying last week chat he had lost
five cents a prtund nn his cotton ^
since Ike was elected. He forKot t
to mention that the price of cot
ton had bci-n declininc almost
daily tor a month before tho elrc*
tion. If Ike is responsible for
cotton dropping he must he re
sponsible for the price of st-Kk
eoing up. It is a pr>or rule that
won't work both wavs.
RepuhUcans Gain
The Republican parcv is still a-
live in North C.irolina rea-a rdless
of what our Democratic friends
may say to the conrrnry. The

House instead of 10, which we
had two years ago. Two Repub

same number we had two vears
ago. It could have been worse.

What Makes Righf?

WHAT makes righl, right? It cannot be determined by counting votes. The vokc of the people is not necGSsarily the voice of God.Even If everybody In the world did exactly whal is right (which hos never happened in this world yet) tl still weuid not be ri«ht merely bvciiU5c tbc.v nil did it. If “right*’ meant nothlntJ more than what everybody docs or what most people do. then right would change as often as popular opinion changed.It would changG with the climate, with the calendar. But right is somclhini! more enduring than popular opinions, customs or en> thuslnsms. ^ ^
Docs '‘Right” m a n “Legal”?Another notion of what It Is that makes rlRhl. Is Law. If it's legal it’s right, if it’s illceal It’s wrong.But haven't wc often heard tho expression,“There ought lo be a law . . ."1 The person who snya that means that there Is somothing which is right that isn’t legal; he wants a law to match what is right Or again, laws are sometimes repealed. But no one would ever vote to repeal a law If he didn't think the law was wrong. Good men sometimos repeal laws; but no good man ever wanted tu repeal ••right.”There is a variety of this idea which has more truth in It: namely, that right is the same thing as the law of God. But God does not make acts right or wrong simply by ordering them to bo so.Could God have said. Thou shalt kill, thou shalt bear false witness? Could he have said. Thou shalt hate Ih)' God and hate thy neighbor? Of course not. He could not have made up such nonsense-laws, such wicked commandments, because he Is not that Icind of God, for one thing, and for another thing because if he did,
it would have meant the destruction of the human race. Although right, and the will of God, arc really tho same thing, yet an act is not right because God wills or commands It because it is right.• • •
How Jesus Looked at It How did Jesus our Lord stand on Ihis question? What made a thing right, for him? He got Into trouble with the lawyers of his time, and he got into trouble with what we would call D.D.’fi and prominent preachers and professors of theology (the Pharisees): they called him "bad” and had him executed accordingly.So there was evidontlj- a differ- ence between his way of looking at •■right” and their way. It was precisely on this point that they split. Jesus tried to make clear, though the Pharisees were too blind to see It, that the Sabbath law. any law of God or good rule of man, is right and good only In so far as it promotes the welfare of man. This is not setting up man above God. for God is man's Creator. Right is what develops God's children: wrong is what stunts, deforms, defeats and destroys them.To put it in another way: The test . of right and wrong is always this: Will this thing make people better and make better people? If so. it Is right. All our laws, institutions and interests must bo brought to the test of their effect on human welfare. And of course, in Jesus' view, the welfare of man includes social, spiritual and menial well-being and growth, not physical health and financial wealth alone.
Littuor and Welfare This being Temperance Sunday,It is a good time to think about the liquor trafnc in the light of all this. *ntink it out for yourself. Remember. alcohol is a habit-forming drug, and aU talk about liquor cannot erase that very plain fact.Now think about the whole business of making It, glamorizing it In . advertising, selling it and using it. Look around you in your home community, and In our nation at• large, and ask: Does it bring more benefit to people In your commu-. nity than it brings harm? Is the ^ purpose of the business human
■ 'welfare?• “ Ask the welfare agencies in yourcommunity—the Red Cross, the
hospital, the agencies that look• after the poor, the orphanage, and; so on»ask these people: Does the liquor business, make your work easier? Is the liquor trade the aUy ot the public school and the church? Doeff it make better citizens, better Christians? If it does, and only U it dees, then as a Christian can you call it right.

JleeMcnts Kill More Youns
Than Any Single Disease
.Accidents are a greater threat to the lives of young children than any single disease. Dr. George M. Wheatley. New York pediatrician,
said in an article in Today's Health.“Accidents kill about 5,000 children between the ages of one and four every year,*' Dr. Wheatley reported. “The natural drive In children to explore the bright new world, to put objects in their mouth and to climb and run about all combine witii immaturity, of body and mind and inadequate parental teaching and supervision to contribute to this appaUlng loss of ,
yotmg lives.“Fuller understanding of child behavion greater use of minor injuries •s'^arning experiences, and keener awareness of the accidents likely to occur are guides to parents in 'immunizing* the preschool child against serious injury or untimely death.**He cited the experience qt an Insurance company. Between 1930 and 1947. the death rate of insured children under five from all diseases combined declined 70 per cent The accident death rate dropped only 23 ver cent •■The chief weapon against the common childhood diseases has been immuniwitlon,’* Dr. Wheatley said. “Against accidents, the main weapon is education—particularly of parente."Motor vehicle mishaps, he said, are the most common cause of fatal Injuries, with burns a close second. Drowning, falls and poisoning are other major causes, with almost half of these accidents oc- curring in or around the home.
Painting Isn’t as Easy
As II Uoics to Beginner
Painting is somelhing almost anyone can do—about flO per cent ot all householders have taken tc pushing their own paint brushes.But as any person who has botched up a home paint job can * testify, painting isn’t as easy as it J looks.’ There are rules to follow and I pit/alls to avoid.' A common mistake is to paint when the weather is too hot or too damp. Authorities advise that Pall . is the best time of the year for painting. They say the weather then U roost likely to be cool and
dry. ^ <Since using the right tools makes any job easier, the amateur painter would do weU to give careful thought' to the selection ojt fiU painting equipment Paint is of first importance. It pays to buy good quality paint that Is made especially for the type of surface on which it is to be appl'/td.. Other painting equipment noj v
Tailor-Made Drugs ■one of the goals of medical science h.is beon^tbe developrnent of tailor-made drugs — specific drugs against specific diseases. A.n important step in this direction Is thfe recent discovery of the com- ‘nlex chemical structure of terrm- mycin, the antibiotic elfecUve against more than 80 human diseases. .Kiiowlng the molecular architecture of the drug the scientists may be able to identify the mechanism that actually knocks out disease. This specific arrangement of atoms can then be changed slightly in the hone of producing a tailor,-made drug with new medicinal possibilities.

Cleaning ‘ivw How can 1 remove the yellow stain from my bathtub? Probably such a stain Is due to iron In the water. Iron stains can often be removed by allowing a solution of oxalic acid to stand In the tub for a time, then flushing well with water. Oxalic acid, which can be obtained at a local drug store, is poisonous and should be used with great caution.

VrrAL STATISTICS
{ Wifey was a buxom little num- . ber—she loved good food—and took ‘ considerable needling from her •: husband about her weight. The two were together one day when they happened upon a scale outside a drugstore—the scale was one of those with a chart that shows Ideal ^eights according to height.
"I dare you to get on that scale and prove you’re not overweight,". chaUenged the husband.
Surprisingly, wifey climbed on.• looked at the pointer, then to the chart. "Well, what does It say?" hubby demanded.
"It says I should be three inches - taller," replied his wife trium- • phantly.

An editor tells the story of an old mountaineer who had three ,great interests — the merit of "cbarred-ln-the-keg" corn whiskey. !the nearby city of Knoxville Tenn., and the Bepubllcan Party.. One day at dusk a traveler, in line with mountain custom, asked to spend the night. He was welcomed. suppe** was served, and when the meal was over, he and
J his so-far courtly host took seats on Ibe front porch and got ready to talk.In only a few minutes, the grizzled mountaineer discovered these facts: His guest didn't drink, he'd never been to Knoxville and he was a Democrat.The old fellow rocked lor a mo> ‘ ment hi glum silence, then he turned to the door.and called to his wife: "Fix the beds, Ma— we've done talked out."
No Warranty Jimmy Faircloth was explaining to a farmer whose barn had Just buriied: "The company will rebuild the bam, making it the same size, etc., as the old one instead of paying the claim In cash." The farmer was furious, and replied: "If that's the way you do business you can cancel tbe insurance on my wife."
After a hectic search for a third baseman, a baseball manager in desperation signed up a horse who showed up well in fielding and batting practice sessions.In his first game, the horse had the misfortune ot coming to bat in the last half of the ninth with his team trailing and with tlie tying run on second base. The pitchcr’s* first toss was smack over the plate and the horse whammed it over the fence for a homo run. The tying run came in from second but when the horse got to first he was so winded that he sat^n t}ie bag and puffed to regain his breath.In a flash, the manager stormed from the dugout screaming, "Run, you idiot, run.""Run?" gasped the horse. "That's why Pm' playing baseball. If i could run. Pd be out at the fairgrounds race track."

Our County And
Social Security
Bv W . K . W hite.-AlanaEer.
Over three-fourths of employed
people are now building credits
for themselves under o1d^age*Iand
survlvora insurance. These cred*
irsa.e not given to them, '^ e y
are c^ e d and paid for. |____
•Therefore, since these workch
have an increasing financial stake
in thh' contributarv system, they
should«take some responsibility
seeing to it that their vrages
correct
A ll workers should take
care of rheir social security car<^.
This is the key to their account
and becomes more valuable as
as time uoes on. "Use ic—don't
lose it!" i
Women who work have an adv
ditional responsibility. When they
change their name thev should
report this at once to their nearesfr
field office. Th is is important to
assure that their record with so
cial securitv is kept straight. Oth
erwise, one social security num>
bet with two names causes com
plications. <
Workets should be sure to show
their social security card to their
employer when starting work, so
that the correct number ' is used.
One incorrect digit w ill, psevenc
proper crediting of wages to a wor
ker's account. They should also
be sure that the correct spelling
of their name is used by the em
ployer. W hile these precautions
should be taken by ajl workers
covered by social s.cu rity; it is es-
pcclallyltrue for those who came
under the newly amended law for
the first time on January 1, 1951.
In clu d e in this group are some
household and farm workers, and
certain employees of government
(Federal. Seate and local) and non
profit organizations, lin addition
all th se people should chcck on
tlieir accounts uccu>*.onjllv t o
make sure their earnings are pro
perly lecorded. Post' cards 'for
this purpose are available at all
field offices of the Bu^au of Old
Age and Survivors Insurance.
