YOUNG ': ' October is Anniversary Month for the Senior Choir at Union Baptist Church; 904 North Roxboro Street, Durham. This year the Senior Choir celebrated its 73rd birthday. And aside from being one of the oldest organizations in the church, it is, by and large, one of the best organized group of singers of the church's 9 choirs. The 73rd Anniversary Observance was a two-part, unpretentious, service held in the sanctuary of the U. B. Church, with members and friends present to wish the choir many happy returns of the day. Mrs. Mary Green Farrington, a. native of North Durham County, was the founder of this splendid choir. Originally, the Senior Choir was a "singing-band" and when the church was organized, "singing-band" became an integral part of the Glendale Avenue Union Baptist Church, and for 73 years has faithfully and beneficially served the church and the North Durham Community.

BY WILLIAM THORPE Can you remember certain times that you have given in to despair, disappointment, and tried to soothe matters by sympathizing with yourself? Don't hesitate t answer yes, because all of us probably have been faced with this temptation. It is human nature for us to feel sorry for ourselves when things seem to be going against us, which can develop into one of the worst mental habits we could possibly form. , We at times like to lieve that our tasks in life are harder than anyone else's. This makes us feel stronger and more capable by comparison. It also gives us an spibi when we fail in our accomplishments. Yes, We invent new alibis to shield our weaknesses rather than try to over-come them Therefore, we pay the penalty for petty and pampering ourselves which is very damaging and costly. ; In my opinion, we should detach such feelings because they can cause a person to place the blame for certain things that has happened upon other people and rob him of his self-respect. And also develop imaginary illnesses in order that he may explain to himself and to others why he couldn't meet a certain situation. It can make a person feel indirectly responsible for anything that happens, and he will always use excuses to cover up his own weaknesses. Now, anytime a person allows himself to get in the stage that was mentioned, he has developed and most likely let "self pity" take possession. It would be wise to remember that every mental thought or picture whether it's based on facts or not, once accepted by our mind, seems absolutely real. It will remain so until we recognize its falseness and stop giving it the power of our belief in it so it can no longer affect us. At this point, some of us may think, breaking a habit is hard, but we have to make up in our minds that there must be a reason behind things. Bad habits belong to the weak, not the strong. So it may be necessary to resolve to change our attitude and our way of thinking toward ourselves and others and see if it makes a difference. Finally, if anyone is a victim of "self-pity," cast this destructive influence out of your life forever, and replace it with self-possession. Believe you can break this mental habit and have the courage and resolution to back up your faith that you have in yourself, and you will feel mentally and physically better than you probably ever felt before in your lift; ON SOCIAL SECURITY The Senate Finance Com mittee has approved a pro posai to raise Social Secu rity benefits by 7 per cent. If enacted, the raise would take effect in 30 days.

The month of November, 1973 has been designated. "National Farm Wife' Month." Secretary of Agricul ture Earl Butz recently signed proclamation making the occasion official. The aim of the special "month," according to its backers, is to "raise public awareness of the farm wife's role in today's society and as a partner to her husband in the industry that feeds the world." The whole idea originated in the offices of Form Wife News. "Since women in all roles of our society are striv ing for and achieving recogni tion today, we felt that, as publishers of the only mag azine exclusively for rural women, it would be fitting if we struck a chord for the farm wives of America,' says Ann Kaiser, FWN's editor. "From the reaction so far, the chord was obviously music to their ears. "Basically, we want to spread the word, that today's farm women are alive and alert . . . are working hard for their farms and their com munities . . . are aware of What is going on in the world and are ready to lend a hand to make it better." Some elaborate plans were put into motion to achieve this goal. Farm Wife Newt staffers first distributed 200,000 bumper stickers, bold fy displaying the theme for j WIN'S NEW fi iDH HICMIINn w the month : "We Salute Farm Wive . . . Proud Partners in Agriculture!" The bright vellow .sticker are showing up on car and nirknn humnut-a umm mm) r . m hviw luiai America, and there's a lot of nonxmg going on along rural roads, due to a Utile "extra" FWN staffers threw in. The promotion piece accompany ing each sticker tells farm wives: ,. "Be sure to display this sticker on your car or pickup and join in the fun: When you spot the sticker displayed by others, honk twice and wave at your counterpart. By honking the horn and joining in our Two Toots for Farm Wives' campaign, you'll be showing that you, too are proud to be a farm wife!" (Farm women who would like a free copy of the bumper sticker can order it from the magazine's home office at 733 N. Van Buren, Milwaukee, WI 53202.) . , Next the staff worked at getting the Secretary of Agri culture to "make it official," and found him more than co operative. He not only signed a lengthy proclamation, but lauded farm women in a spe cial meeting set for tile occa- ;sfSp BP Farm broadcasters and farm magazine editors have been contacted, too, and have been encouraged to interview farm women during Novem ber.

How well are you doing your present Job? Do you have the skills required for the next step wp the ladder or for n new job? Not long ago, a government official reported that the av erage employee holds any where from five to nine dif ferent jobs during his career. Part of this job changing is the result of technology that creates new jobs requiring new skills. For every employee equipped for such changes, perhaps 100 others can't make it. More and more alert lob . holders are upgrading their skills with five million people enrolled in home study. About 87 percent of them are taking career de velopment courses. And 7,000 companies are supplementing their on-the-job training with correspondence courses. Home study courses have lots of advantages. First, you don't have to be relocated for your training. You can learn at home. Along with basic course material you'll often receive training and audio visual aids to help you learn faster and more completely. The right home study course can help you win em ployment security in today's fast changing world. To obtain your free direc tory of accredited private home study schools, write to the National Home Study Council, 160118th Street N. W., Wtuuilngten, D.C. 20009. In these energy-conscious days ot fuel shortages and air conditioning "brown outs," homeowners are r e t u r n i n g more and more to an ancient solution to the problem of win dow coverings slatted blinds. Windows are very necessary to man's psychological well being but they're extremely in efficient they let heat in in summer, and they let it out in winter. So, aside from consid erations of beauty and ease of maintenance, the search has been tor a window covering that will minimize this effect scientists call it a "thermal barrier." The most efficient device de veloped to date? Slatted blinds. With modern engineering and recent advances in reflective finishes, blinds can make a dif ference of 10 to 20 over a window that is unprotected or one covered with drapes or a non-reflective shade. A Thermal Barrier In winter, modern blinds bounce heat back into the room from which it normally would escape through the glass. So important is this thermal effect, in fact, that it always should be taken into account when calculating ton nage requirements for air con ditioning and radiant heating units. Inevitably, talk of slatted window blinds brings up dingy visions of the 'thirties' and the old-fashioned, fat louvers we call "Venetian." Yet forty years of improvements in technology and chemistry by such manufacturers as Levo lor Lorentzen, Inc., of Hobo ken, N. J. have evolved new designs and finishes that are the talk of the home fashions industry. Increasingly, decor ators and designers are spec ifying the revolutionary 25mm (less than one-inch wide) blinds not only for their ef ficiency, but because of the wide range of colors, finishes and the effects which can be obtained.
