PAGE TWO TWO KNOW TOUR SOCIAL SEEKIRITY 9. E. B*lt*ndorf. representative of the Social Security Ad ministration, is in Edenton every Thursday at the North Caro. Una Employment Security Commission in Citizens Bank Building. There is good reason why the Social Security Administration identifies its more than 100 mil lion accounts by numbers rather than by names. Recorded with the Social Security Administra tion are over one million Smiths, many thousands of Johnsons, Ar>- dersons, and others of the more common names. A social security number is an important number. It signifies that, an account has been opened with Uncle Sam’s insurance sys tem. Each self-employed person or person employed by others should see that his correct num ber identifies his account. Use of an incorrect number means extra work for the Government, the employer, v and the account number holder. It may mean loss of benefits on retirement or death. If a person is under so cial security but fails to obtain a number, he has not established a social security account although he may be paying for this Fed Record Funds Provided For 4-H Club Work Advancement A new record total of $847,744 was provided for the advance ment of 4-H Club work during 1956 by the National Committee on Boys and Girls Club Work, according to G. L. Noble, director, in releasing the annual report of the organization. The funds were used for con ducting a comprehensive pro gram of 4-H awards, incentives, and leader training, in coopera tion the U. S. Department of Agriculture and Extension Ser vices of the agricultural colleges in the 48 states. Noble stated. Unique among youth service agencies, the National Committee is a voluntary, non-profit corpora tion that functions as a clearing house in behalf of the 4-H pro gram. During the past year near ly 60 business organizations. foun dations, and public-spirited citi zens channeled funds through the committee for 4-H awards and other services benefiting the 2,- 164,000 boys and girls enrolled in some 90,000 clubs across the country. L. R. Harrill, North Carolina 4- H Club Leader, pointed out that individual awards to more than 141,000 of these 4-H members in cluded 220 college scholarships of S3OO each, 1,121 educational trips, and 141,118 medals, as well as U. S. Savings Bonds, watches, and hundreds of other items. Several of these donor organi zations also gave major financial support for the training of near ly 37,000 volunteer 4-H leaders. Among the notable' annual un dertakings of the committee is its joint sponsorship with Extension Services of the National 4-H Club Congress each fall in Chi cago. Through the award pro grams some 1,200 top-ranking 4-H’ers earn all-expense-paid trips to the Congress where they receive nationwide recognition. ~ r ' VVeeklv Devotional Column By JAMES MacKENZIE V, t Here are some recent religious news items that will be of inter est to readers of this column: Between 40,000 and 50,000 Pro-! testants marched recently through the streets of Guatemala singing “A Mighty Fortress Is Our God,’’ in celebration of the Diamond Jubilee of mission work there. Christians from every section of; the country cooperated in the 75th j anniversary activities sponsored: by missionaries from the North ern Presbyterian Church, the first, group to establish a permanent i work in Guatemala. Ceylon’s government, controlled by Buddhists (who number 60% of the population), has embarked upon a program to curb Chris tian activities. Among its pro visions: No Christian broadcasts, ho churches erected in communi ties where as few as six people object, no Christian nurses in hos pitals, heavy taxation for Chris tian churches and other institu tions. In the face of this, some 960 Christians have vowed to die if need be to carry the Gospel in to every home in Ceylon; and an j extensive campaign has begun to j distribute the Gospel of John to tjlf unsaved populace. ‘iSjjEhree Bible writers were nomi- ( bated for all-tune Pulitzer prizes Weimer, director of the i Joturnadism iniirrmlint I uVa v. nn j . l n n n r tj»' j eral insurance. ' If you will need a social securi | ty number soon, apply for it im i mediately. It probably will take | ten days before you receive the | number. Obtain an application | from any post office or from the Norfolk social security office. Account number cards should be safeguarded. It costs Uncle i Sam to replace each lost social security card. If a card is lost, application should be made for another card bearing the same numberr Also, if you change your name--as a bride does, be sure your social security account is changed to your new name. Don’t pick a number off a box car. If you need a social securi ty number see, the Social Securi ty Administration so that you can be assigned a number which will belong only to you. Do not try ;to remember your number—re member we all forget: Instead, always look at the card when you need to use a social security num : ber. Paul the best editorialist. The General Association of Reg ular Baptists, a strong, Bible-be lieving group of Christians, com memorated its silver anniversary recently, in Grand Rapids, Michi gan. In twenty-five years the group has grown from twenty-two churches to 808 churches. In the past fifty years the Gid eons International have presented 35 million Bibles. The Gideons concentrate on placing Bibles in hotel rooms, and in the hands of servicemen and Women. Benny Hooper, you will remen NOTICE OF SALE Os PROPERTY FOR DELINQUENT 1956 TAXES .1 .

His father and mo ther, who are members of the Bi ble Protestant Church (formerly affiliated with the Methodists), credit his rescue to answered prayer offered by themselves and their pastor, the Rev.
