KNOW YOUR SOCtJU. SECURITY
P. E. Bettendorf. representative of tho Social Security Ad
ministration. is in Edaaton ayary Thursday at tha North Caro,
line Employment Security Commission in Citizens Bank
Building.
Those clergymen who did not
file waiver certificates before
April 15, 1957, and lost their. right
to elect coverage as self-employ
ed persons under the old-age, sur
vivors, and disability insurance
program now have another
chance. An amendment to the In
ternal Revenue Code which Presi
dent Eisenhower signed into law
an August 30, 1957, gave them an
jxtended period of two more
years (in general, through April
15, 1959), to secure old-age, sur
vivors, and disability protection
for themselves and their families.
Ministers who file waivers dur
ing this extended Deriod will be
mandatorily covered for 1956 and
subsequent years for which they
have net earnings from self-em
ployment of S4OO or more, includ
ing earnings from the pursuit of
their ministry. In addition, any
minister who filed a waiver be
fore August 31, 1957, but who fil
ed it too late to secure coverage
for 1956, may elect coverage for
1956 by filing a supplemental wai
ver during the extended period.
The law does not permit minis
ters to elect coverage retroactive
ly for 1955.
The amended law did not
change the 2-vear deadline for a
minister who files a waiver after
th? close of the extended period,
to begin his social security cover
age with 1958 or a later year.

Tastier Turkeys
This year North Carolina tur
key--. will be tastier than ever, ac
cording to Bill Mills, turkey spe
cialist for the N. C. Agricultural
Extension Service,
Research carried on by the U.
S Dept, of Agriculture concludes
definitely that fat added to tur
key feeds insures a smoother,
plumper bird at market age, as
'veil as, a turkey that will cook
to a rich, even brown and score
'high in all the characteristics that
pdd up to high quality poultry
meat.
, Homemakers, long accustomed
to rubbing the turkey well with
fat, will prepare these turkeys in
the same manner. The resultant
bird, however, will be just as ten
der and much juicier than turkeys
t>f seasons past.

The new law also provides that
ministers will now include as net
earnings for social security pur
poses, (1) the rental value of a
parsonage or rental allowance
furnished them as part of their
compensation and (2) the value of
meals and lodging furnished them
for the convenience of their em
ployer. This change in the law
affects ministers’ liability for self
employment tax but does not oth
erwise affect their liability for in-,
come tax. This provision became |
effective for taxable years end-j
ing on or after December 31, 1957,
except that, for the purpose of
the retirement test under old-age
and survivors insurance, it be
comes effective with taxable years,
beginning after August, 1957.
Through misunderstanding, l
some non-profit church-related
organizations erroneously report
ed the remuneration of certain or-’
dained ministers performing,
teaching or administrative duties,
and erroneously paid the employ
er and employee social security
taxes. The amended law provides
that the remuneration reported as
paid to these ministers in 1955
and 1956 shall be treated as if cor
rectly reported, and not as net
earnings from self-employment, to
the extent that the employer tax
or employee tax was not credited
or refunded before August
1957.

Dear Three P’s:
For some time my wife has
been urging me to consider mov
ing to a large city. During the
I course of my business life I have
■ lived in a large city as well as
j several smaller places. We have
, been well established in this
moderate sized town and I do
not have to worry too much
about income. We are not lo
icated.too far from several cities
l of average size. My children are
' on their way to completing their
' education and becoming estab
lished in life. The urging is now
becoming nagging. Do you have
: ;any solution to this problem? I
■would prefer to remain where
' ■ we are.
, Frank L. J.
; Dear Frank:
; Your problem is a common
. one and is found more fre
quently among people who are
/preparing to retire from active
business. Sometimes trying to
I solve the problem is like a tug
of war, each one pulling in op
jposite directions, then the usual
i compromise arid generally no
one is happy about the final so
lution. In your case, without
any financial worries, it can be
a real tug of war, ending up
1 with one of you being hurt and
unhappy unless the problem is
handled in a calm unemotional
1 manner. From your letter I
' would take it that you are well
■ established, have your roots
’ well planted with sprouts spring
’ ing up all around, have made
■ numerous fine friends and have
ycur recreational activities. On
• the other hand, without having
-to worry about money, your
1 wife may feel that she has ex
-1 hausted the resources of the town
- in which you live, that is, the
: local bridge club, the garden
-dub and the church organiza
-5 tions, and would like to move
to a large city where she would
be a smaller fish in a larger
. pond. She would want to' be
long to the so-called "horsey
set” and the intelligentsia. In'
imy experience I have found that
the city has few attractions
that you do not have in the
smaller town, except on a larg-,
er scale. Your wife would prob
'ably want to go to the theatre
■ more often, play more bridge
'and lose more money, drink
more alcohol than is good for
[her, have more expensive clothes
land be classed as a member of
the so-called intelligentsia. ' In
I the opinion of your counselor
this is what is called artificial
living, eventually resulting in
your spending more money than
you can alford, finding out that
the so-calied intelligentsia are
really stupid, for they think
they have all of the answers
and you will have to respect
their opinions, regardless of your
own thoughts, and you become
a parasite of body and mind. It
is the opinion of your counselor
that you should take a firm po
sition and tell your wife you are
going to stay where you are now
living and where .you are happy,
but that you will arrange for a
week in the large city in the
spring and fall of the year when
she can splurge a bit and feel
that she is In the' swing of
things, and when it is over she
can return tc the earth again in
your home town.
Dear Three P’s:
I am nineteen, having gradu
ated from high school a year
ago. For several years I have
been going with a boy, a high
school graduate, several years
older than rrfyself. He is a good
looking boy, has a fairly good,
steady job. He is generous and
takes me out frequently, some
times to unusual places, which
I enjoy, very much. He has pro
posed to me and wants me to go
with him to the city and pick
out the engagement ring. But
he has 1 away of hurting me,
which he does as often as he
makes me happy. Should I say (
yes or should I say no?
Marybel.
Dear Marybel:
Your counselor usually stays
away from the love, problems of
the young. There are a great
many experts in this field who 1
delight in such problems, but i
usually I find that. such experts
are no better in finding the j
answer than the young people j

'themselves. In fact, there is a
great deal of undiluted hot air
written about this type es prob
lem. However, your counselor
will make a stab at it, with the
hope that the result will be
helpful to you. In the first
place, you have gone with this
young man long enough to have
become familiar with his basic |
character, which is the most im-,
portant of all factors. If you
feel that you really know this |
man and his character, then I
would not give too much con
sideration to the minor hurts, if
they really are minor. As you
'know, there are many ways a
young man can be irritating and
some of them show their affec
tion in this manner, and some
girls like being irritated in this
way; it is part of the courtship.
However, if the hurts are deep
and leave a lasting impression
on you, above your love for him,
then I would seriously think of
having a talk with him and let
ting him know that he hurts you
as much as he makes you happy
and, perhaps, he will change his
ways a bit. If he sees your
point of view and your love is
just as strong after the talk, I
would forget the minor hurts.

buys or wears clothes—can now
have access to a new fund of in
formation on the selection and

rics” written by Dorothy S. Lyle,
Director of Consumer Informa
tion for the National Institute of
Drycleaning, a trade association
with headquarters in Silver
Spring, Maryland. The mammoth
book is available for public in
spection anytime at the cleaning
plant.
“There is no better source of
information on clothing perform
ance,” says Mr. Ricks, “than the
Institute which studies more than
27,000 garment problems every
year. That’s just one of the rea
sons why our plant is a member.
They also supply us with a va'ie
ty of technical bulletins so we
can always keep up-to-date,” Mr.
