Naturolly there were no Christians before Christ, and the New Testament boolts were oU written so early in our era that what wC know as a Christian home could not exist. Jesus himself was brought up in a Jewish home. Tim* othy had a Jewish mother but a Greek father, and the "faith" that was in his mother and grand* mother was not, probably, the faith of Christians. Nobody named in the Bible was married in a CbriBtlan church by a Christian m^nijlcr. We have to say, it wc stirk to the facts of history, that the Christian home is something that developed out of the Christian faith which the Bible inspires and instructs, rather than something the Bible directly describes. Law In The Home The Christian home Is not some* thing so radically dirTercnt from other kinds that it con't be recog- niaed, Among the most primitive races there arc homes of a sort. Always there is a mated pair, father and mother, and chlWren more or less under their care. Father and mother (aided oft­ en by other mem* bers of the tribe) teach the yo\ing what they are ex* peeted to know. So much is universal. Dr. Foreman > Now in the Christian home, one special feature marks it off from less developed types: training in religion This we have inherited from the Hebrews long before us. According to Deuteronomy, the law of God was to be known by the parents and taught by them'to the children. This Is nnt simply the Ten Commandmenis, but the whole management of life under the will of God. Now it should uo without saying that if parenis tr.v to tench Ihclr children whal is rijsht. with* out doing right themsulvcH. failure is certain. Some of the most im ­portant matters can bo taught only by example. To take one illustra* tion: parents should be the best persons to tell thcIr children what Christian marriage Is and how to achieve success In It. But if pnr* entfi Uv« in constant strife or even break up altogether, then what? ' A recent study was made ol 12,000 young people. It was dis­ covered that In the homes where they came from, where the parents were both Roman Catholics, only t.4 per cant of the homes had broken up; where both were Prot* estants, 6.8 per ccnt had broken up; where the parents were ot different religions, 15.2 per cent were broken; and where there was no religion at all, 16.7 per cent of the homes were broken. What those unsuccessful husbands and wives did about their own m arri­ ages will have much R\,dre efTect on thair children than any good advice.* • • Love In The HomeA good home is much more than a place where everyone behaves rorrectly and does just as he !>hould. A weU*managed penltcn* tlary might be that sort of place too. The great difTerencc between the model penitentiary ond the model home Is that in one, the good behavior is compulsory. In the other the ruling motive Is love.There Is no home where love never makes miBtflkes: none where love is complete and {law­ less. But where love is, there i.« hope. Without love, the least dlf* ferences pile up into unscalnbic mountains of incompatibility and resentment; where love is, even mountains of difneulty can be brought low. V ^at the Bible teaches every­ where, especially in the New Testament, is that love, i r the home or anywhere, to have its per­ fect work must not be one-sided. If every member of a home really set out to be the kind' of person Paul describes in I Cor. 13 or Bph. S. break'Ups would be seldom indeed. Love ought not to be left . to mothers alonel God’s PlanninfrA Christian home is one where Cod's plan ot love is followed. Bui God never does for us what wc can do for oursulvos. We have to plan for our homes just as wc do lor anything at all that wc wani 10 succeed. This should Itegin early, too, like all goud pMnniiig.

Liquai certainly has no defense as a drink for drivers. But some of the other defenses put up for alchollc liquor as « beverage that '*belongs,” that la part of the social scenc. do not sound so good when they are taken down and looked at with a cold and sober eye.• • •Alcohol Is A Drug The one thing that defenders of alcoholic beverages Invariably keep quiet about, is the simple fact that alcohol is a drug, a harmful drug, a h a b it • fo rm in g drug.' No amount ot advertising can talk that fact out of existence.That it is a fact, can be witnessed to by anybody—he does not have to *>'• Foreman be a preacherl—who has had to deal with the wretched people at the bottom of the slide that was lubricated with liquor. Alcoholics are sick people; that Is a recog­ nized tact; but alcoholism differs from all the other diseases in the book In thU one vital thing: No one can say to himself. I refuse to have tuberculosis, 1 will never have cancer. He may come down with those diseases In spite ot his best intentions. But any one may say to himself: 1 w ill never be an alcoholic. And he can make that resolution stick, simply by staying away from alcohol. On the other hand, no man or woman who mixes alcohol in his system can ever be quite sure he w ill not be an alcoholic. No alcoholic ever meant to be one.• • • Drugs Have No Brakes Now the trade in alcoholic liquor is legal; trade in other drugs such as heroin, cocaine and similar drugs, is strictly Illegal except for medicinal purposes through regu* lar pharmacists, and on doctors* prescriptions. Still there are a great many people who In spite of the difficulties do manage to buy and use these forbidden drugs, and of course there are always the con* scicnceless people who sell the stuff to the addicts. But let us suppose wc listened to the defenses of ordinary liquor, if applied to other drug habits. How ridiculous they would sound! We are told that the habit of drinking liquor is a long*estab* lished American way of life. Well, the taking of cocaine is long*es* tablisbed too. People w ill buy liquor—-legally or illegally; they will buy heroin too in spite ot all the laws. People w ill steal cars, and forge checks—it’s been done a long time. But that doesn't make it right Or again, consider the pleasure people get out ot liquor. Why, of course. They get an even keener pleasure out ol shots of other drugs than alcohol. Every time you put a drug addict into a sanitarium you deprive him of his greatest pleas* ure In life. But that does not make his habit any better. But, it will be said, self*control Is the answer; a drug used in moderation Is not so harmful as when used .to excess True; b ul the trouble Is. no drug has brakes, and drugs of the kind that alcohol and heroin are, actual ly weaken self-control instead of making it stronger. Stuff And Nonsense The reader can amuse for hor­ rify) himself by thinking of olhe antique arguments used to the cause of those who use. or v profit by other men’s use of. alc> hoUc liquors.

Manhour Output , On Farms Increases The U. S. Bureau ol Labor Sta- tisUcs reports that output per man- hour on the nation's farms has risen three times as fast In the past 16 years as in industry gen­ erally.This output per manhour stood at 80 on the labor bureau's index hi 1939 and Is now about 170. The rise has been due chieAy to industry's development of farm machinery and fertilizers, with improved farm practices playing an important p a rt The macliines, fertilizers, and improved (arm practices enable the (armer to raise more food with less work. The machinery also has in* creased (ood supplies (or humans by . supplanting 25,000,000 work horses and mules formerly used on farms. The land once used to raise feed for these animals Is now used either to raise (ood or as pasture land for cattle and sheep. The drift of some 2,800.000 (arm workers to factory jobs has inten* slfled the urge to mechanize (arms. The result of all these factors has been that the country is now able to furnish an improved standard of diet for its growing population. PA FIRST • Tcachcn Whnt is tlie order of the Bath? No answer.

Manager.Maior changes in the Social Se* curity Act during recent Wars have not only provided more sc* curity for more people, but have also made It much easier to ob­ tain this protection. A surprising number are still totally uninformed as to what this program means to them. Tills probably applies more’ to those people who have been under the program the longest. They have taken the social security de* ductions from their paychecks for granted. T he newly covered groups seem more aware of their status since they have only re* cently begun making contrlbu- tons. Many people still think of the ptogram as it was when they first covered back in 1937 and 1938* They are surprised, in many cases, to Icaru that there are benefits payable to survivors in death cases. Others think of the program as it operated prior to the 1950 amend ments, not realizing that even since the recent date, the benefits have substantially increased, the eligibilitv requirements greatly modified, and new types of bene* fits provided. Workers should get up-to-date information about what the so* cial security program means to them and their families.

On the other hand, no m an or woman who ' mixes alcohol In hta system can ever be quite sure he will not be an alcoholic. No alcoholic ever meant to be one.• • • Drugs Have No Brakes Now the trade in alcoholic liquor is legal; trade in other drugs such as heroin, cocaine and similar druRs. is strictly Illegal except tor mcdicinal purposes through regu­ lar pharmacists, and on doctors' prescriptions. Still there are a great many people who in spile of the difficulties do manage to buy and use these forbidden drugs, and of course there are always the con- scicnceless people who sell the stuff to the addicts. But let us suppose we listened to the defenses of ordinary liquor, if applied to other drug habits. How ridiculous they would sound! We are told that the habit of drinking liquor is a long-estab­lished American way ot life. Well, the taking ol cocaine is long-es­tablished too. People w ill buy liquor—legally or illegally; they wlU buy heroin too in spite ot ‘all the laws. People w ill steal cars, and forge checks—it’s been done a long time. But that doesn't make It right. ^ Or again, consider the pleastire people get out of liquor. Why, of course. They get an even keener pleasure out of shots of other drugs than alcohol. Every time you put a drug addict into a sanitarium you deprive him of his greatest pleas­ure in life. But that does not make his habit any better. But, it will be said, self-control is the answer; a " drug used in moderation is not so harmful as when used .to excess True; but the trouble is. no drug has brakes, and drugs of the kind that alcohol and heroin are. actual ly weaken self-control instead of making it stronger.

But if you want a bargain that will still be a bargain after years o£ hard truck- work, ask these questions before you buy: Does the truck give you a GMC’s 105 H.P.? That’s up to 19?S more power than comparable sixes. It bustles a GMC's top loads up tough pulls—without engiiie strain. Does it have a GMC’s 8.0 to 1 super* high-compression?

It was Jusl like old times, and John wasn't sick M single day ot the whole two weeks, and was lively as a cricket. He told me he’d met his wife on a trip to some big city. He was at­ tracted to her by her beautiful glossy black hair. When I got back home again I guess I neglected John, Three weeks later, I was flabbergasted in his change. He was pale and listless and had been bothered with stomach flue sg«in. Next morning I dlscoverod I was out of coffee, so I went over to John's to borrow some. "Come in and have a cup of coffee with me," called John from the table where he was seated. As I sat down he pushed his apparently untouched cup toward me. Mrs. Carlson picked it up. " I’ll pour you some hot coffee," she said, dumping It In the sink. ^ ® Prom the steam that came from »t as It went into the sink, It ap­ peared plenty hot to me. She hand­ed me a freshly poured cup, but little things like that worry me.I spoke with John for some time. »s he recited the symptoms of his illness for me. In the back of my mind. I felt that I knew exact­ly what John's Illness was. but‘the snswer evaded me. As 1 arose to leave, Java ran to the cupboard and barked furiously. There was a ham bone lying there, which he was barking nbotil, but I saw something else, something that shocked me Into going to the police station. Officers returned with me. to collect the evidence from the crook neck of the sink. For at last I had connected the familiar mass of wet papers that Java had originally placed on my shoe. It was identical with the paper found on the Carlson cup- board, except that it had been soaked to extract the poison. But the crook neck of the sink had saved enough of the poison sat­ urated coffee to convict a would be murderer. It had been a close call tor my friend.

Much of the advancement is the result ot cxperimenlal farms maintained by the federal govern­ment. One such station is main­ tained at Beltsville, 12 miles from Washington. It is the largest experimental farm In the nation. It contains 11.000 rolling Maryland acrcs. There are 2,000 employees. WO buildings and 53 miles ot roads. The days of the horse and plow iptctnred In the lower half of the above drauingi Is practically a Ihing of the past on American farms. Machinery is more eco­ nomical and cives ;rreater effi­ ciency. Ab a result farm prodoc- tion has reached an alM Ime bit In this country. Included in the property are a granary, acres of greenhouies and an airport. Beltsville scientists first tested DDT and the amazing chemical 2.4-D. They are constantly ex­ perimenting with cattle, chickens and swine. Only one of the station's crea­ tions bears its name. It is the Beltsville turkey that just fits an apartment sized o%-en. The station, like those in the other 48 states, is a m ajor guard­ ian of the country's forests and farms, food, clothing and future health. Rotation Is Important, But Not a Cure-All As every farmer knows crop ro­tations arc mighty Important in slowing down erosion, saving top- soil and water and building tilth, but it is not a cure-all. And cer­ tainly, rotations alone won't grow lop yields. The University of Missouri re­ports that tests there have proved that fully fertilized corn grown year after year will actually out- yield corn grown In a rotation that Is partially fcrllii7,ed. Corn with full soil treatments averaged 97.6 bushels an acre in three year continuous test. Corn in rotation with red clover, plus lime and a starter fertilizer aver­aged only 76 bushels. In another test, wheat yielded 30 bushels. Wheat gtown in rotation made only 15.3 bushels. But rotation is still important. Yields Jumped to ill.3 bushels when corn In rotation got a full fertilizer treatment that gave the crop all the balanced nutrients it needed for the/entire growing sea­son. Wheat yields also Increased. The Missouri agronomists re­ ported that the legume in the ro*. latlon conditions the soil to make m axim um use of the full fertilizer feed for corn.

Federal spending should be cut. the letter stated, and agriculture should bear its share of the re­ duction.However, the periodical ex­ plained. some research and sew- Ice activities are essential, so an "across the board” reduction Is impracticaL That makes It noces- '’«ary to impose relatively heavy cuts In direct payments to farmers. “Appropriated funds for the Agri­cultural Conservation Program should be allocated on the basis ot conservation needs. Payments for practices which . have become a normal and accepti^ part of f a m ­ ing operations of the area in which a farm Is located, should be discon­ tinued.” the Bureau said.’’Payments due individuals should not be Jncrcased after practices have been performed, as has sometimes been done to use up available funds. Unused funds should be returned to the Treas­ury without penally to the county in the next year's allocation.”A long-term, low-interest rate loans program was suggested as a substitute for^the present ACP program. > Since the food value derived from a given amount of grain is several times greater than that of m ilk or meat produced by feed- ing the same amount o£ grain to animals.

This is a isoMen oppor­ tunity for tho voters to go to the polls and voce in favor of bond: for this good cause. There ii nothing Davie needs more than a hospital to care for the sick and afflicted. Hundreds of people from this town smd county are cariied monthly to overcrowded hospitals in adjoinmg counties. With scarcity of physicians In thiscoun- ly the need ot a hospital bucomcs more apparent week by week. If the bond issue carries the tax rate cannot be raised more than $1 on the thousand dollars worth of property, and ii mav not be nec­ essary to raise the rate more than half that amount. We hope that every qualified voter will go to the polls on Saturday, Nov- 21st and cast his or her ballot for^this bond issue.

It It given him , not permanently, not to do wUh as he pleases, not to waste, not to use selflshly; but given him, to each generation, to use for the service of m an and to the glory of God. Man is expected to contribute something of his own toil and thinking; cxpected to put something In as well as take something out. Human nature being what It is. we tend to take credit to ourselves for all we possess. However, when a m an honestly rec* ognizes how much of what he has comes to him ns n gift from God, he can see that his life is a partner­ship with God. and Dr. Foreman that God as an Investor In the hu­ man enterprise has the rights ol a senior partner and owner of most of the stock. To net as if we our­ selves were the lords of creation ii plain dishonesty. The Church,God’s Special Agent Let it be said again, though it has been said before: The church is the one community on earth which is devoted solely to carry­ing out the purposes of God. The church is God's channel of action; the church is the body of Christ through which our Lord lives and works. The church is the one or* ganizntion devoted to the "Ideal world"—the kingdom of heaven ->which aims at bringing about that u’orld through the most fun­ damental of all methods, trans­ forming life from within. The church is the one organization on the planet whose aims actually go beyond time, for its Intention is to prepare men not only tor usefulness here under the sun but for eternal life. Now you would tlilnX \liat church members would rculize this and act accordingly. Dul inoFt of tlicm do no t (Query: Is n “church mem­ ber" who neither knows nor cares what the church is doing, n real member at all?] Look at these facts: Out of the total income of church families throughout the U. S. A., only 1.1 per cent is be­ing given to churches and their work. Only 1.83 per cent of taxable income is deducted for gifts. Only about 45 per cent—less thnn hiilf— of the present membership give anj'thing of record for local church support; and only about 30 per cent give anything to the outrenching benevolent activities of the church. You m ight not be surprised that* non*Christ!ans are selflsh; but when more than two-thirds of the enrolled church members don’t put in one red cent for the unselllsh purposes for which the church ex­ists, something is rotten In Chris­ tendom.• • • • Four Points In The Chrisfinn Program X^t us come to some more brass tacks. There is no argument among the lenders of all C h ris tia n churches that there are four major emphases In the program of the uhurciv J. Evangelism—winning new Christians. (If you don't be­ lieve In that, you are voting (or Christianity's sickness and death.) 2. Christian education-training better Christians, learning how to serve as Christians In every walk uC life. (If you don't believe in that, you are voting for an infan­ tile kind of Christianity, blind to the problems of JIfe today.) 3. Missions — spreading Ou'istianlty into new territories, (Don't'forget that if it had not been for mis­sionaries, your own race would never have heard the gospel.) 4. Stewardship—the active recogni­tion of God as giver of life and life’s possibilities, of God as senior partner In our livos, of the fact that what we have, we hold In trust for him.Now it must be clear to any one who w ill take the time to think it over, that If point four is left out, the other three w ill Just collapse. What Is Your Church Douig? At the grass-roots of this whole problem is the local church. What is yours doing to improve this sit­ uation of neglect? [)oes the minis­ter preach on stewardship? Is stewardship studied in the church school? Do tlie adult study classes ever look into this matter seri­ o us^? Are new members "briefed*' about being stewards of God?

He's fond of contemporary jftz?. but ho likes a lot of old pop tunes and he collects the originals. He's been after me ever since I’ve known him to try and locate an original copy of a Bunny Daw­ son rendition of *‘l Can't Get Any­where W ith You." It's an old favor­ ite and hard to find. So his next question is usually, "Any luck?” And my answer. " I haven't heard anything yet, Don." It's sort of a ritual and alter he's satisfied that I'm still trying he wonders over to the new file and thumbs through the labels." I see you have some new Tenor Sax work by Stan Webster. He’s good. I like him ." Don plays sax in a sm all combo, pretty good they tell me. "Say Gene, look at this— I didn't know it was even out yet—this disc by Benny's new sextet—look." "Just a minute Don. someone is coming in the doorway." It was a pleasant looking young*lady. She walked up to me briskly and with a graceful, confident stride. "M ay I help you." I asked. "Yes. I'm looking for an old tune I heard played on a radio program the other night. U*s called " I Can't Get Anywhere With Y ou" and it’s by a m an that plays a wonderful trumpet." I looked at her neat features and soft blue eyes. She seemed intelli­ gent and pleasing; a very, nice young lady I decided. "Well, I'm not sure, but if y<m'll ask m y assistant over there He’ll be glad to help you. He's more up- to-date on these things than I am ." "D on," I called. "Yes," he said looking irritated at being interrupted—until he saw the girl. "Woiild you help this customer please—I think you'll know what she is looking for." "Me? Oh! Sure, sure," he re­ plied looking confused. The girl walked over to him and told him what she wanted. His eyes lit up brightly."W e don't have any original presses but there are some re­ issues on the baek shelf if you would care to hear them. Would you?""Very m uch." she replied. They walked to the back of the shop where Don selected a record from the shelf and then showed her into the listening booth. He pul the record on and the strain of the old favorite came tlirough the ou^ side speaker. They listened foi awhile and then I could see thruug} the glass door that they were tall, ing very seriously, probably abou music. The record stopped p!a> in> but they kept on taiUiiig until O n finally discovered the record \»a still going around.They came out of the booih laughing, the girl walked up to the counter and paid for the rec­ ord.

Walter E. tienhoar. Tavlorivtlle N. C. Someone hns written: ‘'When you missed prayer meeting you missed nn appointment with the Lord, who says. "Where two or three are gathered together In my name, there am I in th^ midst of them. ^ *’When you missed prayer meeting you missed an opportunity of redeeming the time by prayer and worship which will never come again. Other meetings may come, hut the past is giitbered in. to an eternity that comes not e. gain.’* Don't miss prayer meeting."* It is the place where .you meet God and bis People. It Is a place where you r^new your strength. Let other things go, but don't miss praver meeting. To willfully neg> lect prayer, and to willfully absent yourself from prayer meeting, means that you grow leau In 'your soul and will soon die soiritually. The enemy will suggest to you that vou are too tired, or too busy, or be .may send in a compaov, to keep you away from prayer meet, ing. Go and take yonr comoanv with you, or let them know it Is more important to commune with God than them. Go If vou are tired and.see how It will rest you. Go if you 'are busy and have to lay your work'aside for tbe time being. God will enable yon to get yonr work done (anyhow, and maybe just as soon and as good. We never lose by getting alone with God. or going with others, to meet God In praver. Don’t miss prnyer meeting, es. pecially If von go to earnestly and sincerelv prav.

Soil Tests Reduce Production Risks Use: Right FerMlizer Where Most Needed U dne Ulo rlnht lerUllzer where It Will do the most good will re* duce the risks in field crop pro­ duction. Whether lltUe or much, it Is. foolish, to make the required in* vestment for seed, ferllllacr, la« bor.. etc., without having all the InformaUon tl.at can be obtained readily about the soil , on which the crop is to be grown. ' To get the maximum profits front your soil have it tested. You may be surprised how much it needs and how little you have given it But it is important to use the right fertilizer when and where it will do the most good. Take , ^ ■eM has been propel^ Alter-cnsiillKU in nm Ms county agent the fam icr begina his rebuilding programt The right amount of fertiliser where It will do the most ^ood at tho right time, report of your soil test and your cropping history to your county agent and get his advice about seeds and fertilizer. Soil testing is not an exact scl* ence, but it servos as a pretty sound indicator of nutrients in the soil, That's a long step toward success In crop production. And it is well to remember that over-doses of fertilizer can be as harmful to a crop as the right amount can be helpful. Researchers Report On Broiler Production Researchers at the Oklahoma Agriculttiral Experiment Station report that for m axim um Income from broiler production, it Is es< scntial that the broiler house be used at its maximum capacity. In other words, the number, of broilers per square foot of fioor space must bo kept as high as pos­ sible without reducing growth rate or efficiency of feed conversion. , Where good management prae- Uces are followed, three-fourths rof a square .foot of floor space' per broiler shotild be economically sound in both summer arid winter, they report One square foot of floor space per broiler would be the rccom> mendation where management practices are not'up to standard, whore there are frequent disease outbreaks, or where housing eon- ditlona are less<^ •satisfactory. The type of management being practiced, and the skill of the poul- tryman In charge:of tho broiler op­eration, m ust/ be considered in making any floor space recom­mendation, they say. Whoro man­ agement practices; arc not up to standard and disease oiitbreaks giver considerable trouble one square foot of floor space or even more m ay be required.

We never hit him at home except in self-defense.** Our County And Social Security By Louis H. Clement, Manager. Loss of social security benefits continues to be a problem in the administration of the Social Se­curity Act. Tliere was one case where a loss of benefits was recently prevented by a chance call at the field office bv ai insured 65-year'oId worker. The worker had changed from a job covered by the law to a non- cftvered job. He had not intend­ ed to file a claim since he had thought that his new job would be covered by proposed legisla­ tion. This wrong impression was corrected when it came ro the at* tcntion of our ofiice. The man filed his claim and is now receiv­ ing monthly benefits while work­ ing in non-covered employment. Another cause for loss of bene­ fits most commonly encountered is the apparent impression that! only the full-time emplovees at­ tain an insured status under the law. Many part time and season­ al workers become insured also. Many individuals overlook the fact that retirement does not ne­ cessarily mean permanent retire ment nor total retirement. The beneficiary can receive benefits for; months In which he meets .the $75 work limitation. Failure to file a claim when the highest av­ erage in monthly Wages Is attain^ ed can result in lower benefit rates. To prevent losses of benefits, be sure to call at the social security field office.

M0CK3V1LLE N C„ SOVEMBBR 18 I9M ■ BY DR, KENNETH J. FOREMAN Help The Hungry Lcsdon for Xovember 22.1953 A S CHRISTIANS, we owe ft ^ great deal to owr mother>re>^ Ugion. the rcliffiott of the «neien( . Hebrews. Two o( the charecteris* lie strong points of that religion are ours too: one in that religion has everything to do with our ev­eryday life, and the other is that cociety (that is, the persons who make up society) has a sacred duty to carc for the wealc and friendless. Now in ancient times the most hcipleas people In the com* munity were the widows, the or* phans and the “so* joumers,” that is to say. migrants, people w ithout land or family, up­rooted and dis< placed persons. Widows hnd very iittle chance at a Foreman Jiving cxcept by almost s1ave*]a> bor; orphans even less; and as for the sojourner, in most places in those days even his life was in danger. If anybody starved in an ancient city, it would be the so- joumer first, then the widows and orphans. ^ An Ancient “Poor-law”The Hebrews were taught care. fuUy. from Moses' time onward, that God loved these helpless per* sons, widows, orphans and so­journers; and the Hebrews were commanded to taltc care of them. Something can be learned from a study of the ancicnt laws protect* ing these poor persons, laws whieh the Hebrews believed, and so can we, lhat God himself inspired. They are not laws which we can copy unchanged, for conciitions of life and woik have changed. But the spirit of them (s as fresh and as needed today as three thousand years ago. Consider Uiis from Deu* teronomy: "Love the sojourner therefore, for you were siijoumers in the land of Bsypl."There is a certain rich man in America whom wo mny call Mr. X. He eame to'tills caunlry when a b ^ , an immigrant son of very poor parents. Had he stnyed tn Ihc old country', he himscli lhlnl<s hewould have had to live and die at his fpther’s ill-paid trade. In Amor- iea*M freedom, Jjowcver, IbJa boy rose to riches and honor, nnd Is now a man who loves to tails of the ''American dream** and of huw he himself is an example of it.But what does Mr. X thinic of en­ couraging others at this present time to come over nnd try tlw American dream for themselves? He is opposed to it He wants no more immigrants. He is glad the door was open to himself; he wants it closed now for good. But he does< not stand alone; he gets re-«]eeted to eongress by several ttiousand other Americans who do not love the sojourner. "Love the sojourner" means have a concern for migrant workers, for displaced persons, for immigrants, fOr op­pressed minorities. America can hardly call itself a Christian na­tion unless it taites such laws of God more seriously. H elping Men To H elp Them selves Another and more particular law is found in Leviticus ID, wliere the farmer of those days is forbidden to harvest either his whcat-flcid or his f;rapo>vincyard5 clean. He must always leave some wheat un- Kathcrcd, some vines untouched. We see how this worked in the case of Ruth who would have starved had she not hnd tlic chance to glean <pick up those stray sheaves) in the flelds of Qeihlcbem.This is not a law we can copy right on to our statute books; bui we may well copy its spirit and intention. First there is a real concern for Ihe man at the bottom of the ladder. Then there is given him ah opportunity to work lov his own living. Wheat and gropes are not delivered, to.his dnor; lie has to out and worir for his tood. But the point is that he is helped by being enabled to help himself. Hunger Around The World In the time of Moses, and of Jesus, indeed till most recent times, our neighbors,’ those whom .' we could holp, were those whom we could see„ witiiin walking dis-' tance of our homes. No doubt there were famines In India, floods in Japan, while Jesus was llvinj;. But' he never said a word about aid to India, because in Ihe first place the Galileans themselves Vved on the edge of starvation, and In the second placA if they bad had a million ions of surplus wheat they could ne*/er have , reached India with t qusrt of il lo otir day the wcrH is smaller.

Trtith builds charac. tersand makes for tr.ie success, while falsehood destroys noble char­ acter and bring defeat. To illis trr.e: A yonng clerk in the dry goods business stated to a custom er that sncb a piece of goods was not *'of the wave** which the cus* tomer was asking for. The pro- prletor was very angiy and de­ manded why ue did not show other goods. 'We did not have that quality in the fitoie.** he replied. "Young man,” said t*ie proprle- toa, you casnot .stretch the truth a little to fat circnmstancesl you will never do for we The clerk's reply should be written upon the conscience of every one of us. "Very* If I must tell falsehoods to keep my job. I must lose h.. That's all." The clerk was Marshall Kleld, who later became cue of the kings of commerce; while the dishonest employer became bankrupt and |dled lu provertv. It Is far belter to mtss a sale, or lose a job, and tell the trurh, than make a sale, or hold a job, but tell a lie. Sooner or later the truth will bring one io i^uccess, while Ihe lie will eventually bring one to de.i feat. The. truth spoken gently and kindly wins its wav Into the hearts of mankind, and they io turn wll intend by-and suppoit the one who speaks tdus, On the other hand, a lie may gain It point for the time being, but will lose it later, and may bring one down to final and I eternal' defeat. All good, honest, noble people love tile truth but hate a lie. Not jcnly that, bnl God loves the truth and those who speak it Christians are truthful. Hvpocrites often times are llara. Certainly they nro* fess to be what they are not, and that orofession is false. To speak and live the truth is ennobllbft, while to 'speak and act a lie. or falsehood. Is degrading. To apeak gently the beautiful truth is to walk with Christ, who bald. am the way, the truth. and the life.'* New Stuffed^Chair Gives Sitfer a Rubdown HEW YORK—What they'U think Of next Is anyone's guess.

A few davs ago. a North Caro> lina &rmer was bulldozing stumos on his land, near Asheboro. Sud­ denly his bulldozer bumped into something that didn't look very much like a stump. He kept on digging, and soon unearthed an automobile that had been buried there there more than 30 years. The car was a 1920 mo­ del, and carried a 19Z1 license plate, so it apparendv had been deiiberatcly burled while It was still new. The farmer had no idea who had buried the car on his farm— or why. The incident was somiething like the old proverb about., the man biting the dog. It Isn't very often that a man puts his CAR in the I grave—but automobiles, operated improperlv, have put manv men, women and children in THEIR graves. *According to facts, compiled and published bv the State De­ partment of Motor Vehicles, 989 fatal traffic accidents occurred In North Carolina during 1952. These 989 accidents claimed, a total of 1,115 lives.When we con.'dder rhe cost of irafHc accident in terms of injury and death to human bemgs—it wouldn't be surprissng if someone came up with the suggestion that ALL m< tor cars should be put “six feet under.As a m.ttter of fact, if you had any idea that YOUR nice new carj wou'd become an instrument of death for anv member of your jfomily. you'd probably dig n big hole forlit tomorrow. Then vou*d duipp the car in the hoile, and cover it up for good. 1. R. WATERS. N. C. Highway Safetyi.Rep.

GRADUATION A certain old lady in an English village was so concerned aboutj one of the villagers who was un* able to write, that she persuaded the schoolmaster to give him some lessons. Later she met the villa* ger and said to him: Well. George, I suppose you are now able to rvnd the Bible fairly easily?'*"Lor* bless you, mum," he re­ plied, **I was out of the Bible and I to the football news over a week ago!” CONGRATULATIONS A secretar;* who is habitually 15 minutes late for wotk each day slid smugly into her place at her desk only 6ve minutes tardy. "Well,” exclaimed her employer approvingly, *'I want to extend congratulations.

Tlie social security tax rate for| persons whose work counts to* ward old-age and survivors insur* ance is scheduled to increase on the first of January, 1954. This scheduled Increase in tax contribution is in accordance with the 1950 amendments to the so­ cial security law, and was enacted by Congress in anticipation of fu­ ture obligations of the program. Employees in jobs covered by the law will have 2% instead ofj the present deducted from their pav beginning with the first of January up to earnings of $3,- 600 a year, their employers will contribute an equal amount. The new rates will apply to all taxable wages paid after Dec. 31, 1953, regardless of when earned. The social security tax for the self-employed is scheduled to in­ crease from the present 2 i^ to 3 per cent, for the period commenc­ ing Jan. 1, 1954. Since the self- employed whose work is covered bv the law pav their tax just once yearly at the time of filing their Federal income tax return, thev will pay the present 2i per cent social security tax on their 1953 income that counts toward social security. This will be due not la* ter tl:en March 15, 1954. Their first payments at the increased rate of 3 per cent will be due Mar. 15, 1955, for the calendar year 1954. In the meantime the In­ ternal Revenue Service reports that employers will be furnished late this vear with income tax withholding tables and Federal Insurance Contributions Act (so­ cial security taxes) tables reflect­ ing rates applicable next vear. A representative of the Sails* field office of the Social Security administration will be in Mocks-j ville on the 1st and 3rd Fridays, at the Courthouse, second floor at 12:30 p. m.; and on the same date in Cooleemee at the Band Hall over Ledford's store at 10:00 •PRICE GOING UP The Bogart-Hepburn movie, 'African Queen,” was made in the African jungle. A few days after the troupe arrived, director John Huston, Peter Viertel, and producer S. P. Eagle hired a na­ tive to take them for a canoe ride on the Congo. An hour after they started they heard jungle drums beating. All along the route, at frequent inreivals. the sounds were repeated.“What are they saving?” Hus* ton asked the native fearfully. The native listened to the drums and translated: "Drums say three Americans. Very rich. Raise rices.” LIBERAL REWARD ; A man stood up at a gathering and said: *‘l*ve lost a wallet con­taining $500.

We wore told that there U nothing worth while outside M a­ drid. Nothing but 20 million peo­ ple living in ignorance end eco­nomic slavery!" One has to see euch a country to appreciate how in America wc enjoy what is a . heritage and a teaching of true Christianity.•M«n Are Not Eqiml, But—The crushing of the poor by the rich is one of the sins specially set. down in the Bible as hated by God. (See the Scripture lor the week.) The crushing of the weak by the strong is a problem always with us; but In our country we do at least try to keep the doors of otqiortunlly open for every one. Our Declaration oC Independence says thot all men arc created equal; which is not a /net, we feel.It is our belief. how<{vcr—and let it be remembered, a belief taught by the Bible—that every child born within our borders shall have a fair chance to develop every gift and capacity he has, to go as far as he can go and tu do »s much as he can do for his fanJJy and community. "DemocrHcy” la n word of many good meanings; and the basic meaning is equality uf opportunity.For one thing, we try. at least in p art to see that no child shall be penalized In hla educallon for being bom where ho was and not somewhere else. As a mntter ot fact, of course, not all schools are equally good. Some states have such poor schools, or such poor school laws, that children from there are handicapped in competi­ tion with children from states «*ith betUr schools. But even where this is true, it is widely felt that this ought not to be. Educational leaders are not complacent about this state of things. Further, many states have equalised their school funds so that children born In re­mote sections w ill have just as w U - equipped and well • stalTcd schools within roach, as cliildrcn in the larger cities. Fair Ch.anco AL Jobs Another angle of equality of op­ portunity is a fair chance al job.s. Some one is sure to ask: What hns religion got to do with this? Well, look at the Bible. Paul said thai .1 m an who will not work shall not (jat*->lliat was his rule. We all know the commandment, *'Slx days iihait thou labor." and we all have observed how important it is for the development o l personality that a m an or woman shall have work that suits hU ca]>aclty and gives him a chance to be a pro­ ducing member of society. So if men arc cut off from the chance to work, or not allowed to com­ pete for the kind of work for which they are fitted, religion says: This Is wrong, whenever one of God's children is barred from a God- given right. Fair Chancc At Religion ■niere is another kind of equality of opportunity even more impor­ tant than what has been men­tioned. That Is equality of oppor­ tunity in religion. "Freedom of Worship," as it la often called, is not just the legal right to wor­ ship under any church roof one pleases. It is the right lo be face<l with the choice God offers us in Christ and to share In his fellow­ ship everywhere. It is not enough that your community has (as ti 4oes, no doabO a variety at churches. The question is: Is every one in your community equall.v welcome in al) these churches?

Why. then, do I keep thinking of him ? She heard the vender’s chant on the street again and she thought, he’ll buy her something for Christmas. This is only the beginning—for Beth. She checked her thoughts with the sound of their returning steps ni} the stairs and turned to her work, grateful that she had so much to do. She wouldn't have lime to think. Shortly before three o'clock she walked into Jerry's office with the finished work. She smiled and laid the work on his desk. " I hope Fvc made no errors. Jerry,” sJic said. "You haven't.

Our County And Social Security By Louis H. Clement, Manager. Old*agc and survivors insurance is of increasing importance to the working women of the nation be* causc more women of mature age arc entering the labor ranks*While the number of single, widowed and divorced women workerf'has changed but Hale in recent years, there has been a marked increase in the number of married women workers. This number has grown from 7^ mil* lion in 1947 to nearly tO| million in April, 1952.It has been the tendency dur* ing the past decade for women to return to work, or to take jobs for the first time af«er reaching middle age. This trend contrasts with the pre-war period when it was largely young wives in their twenties and early thirties who went into outside employment. Today, the greatest proportion of working wives are in their early forties; even married women in their early fifties are. entering the labor force in about the same pro- portions as younger women, April, 1952 survey reveals. A woman now age 50 will be fully insured for old*age insurance payments at age 65 after about 7h years of covered work.
