KNOW YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY
John T. Grooms, representative of tho Social Security
Administration, is in Edenton every Thursday at the North
Carolina Employment Security Commission office in the
Citisens Bank Buildng.
Thirteen million beneficiaries
are now drawing monthly social
security checks. If you are
among those receiving a social
security check each month, you
can see how important it is
that you notify the Social Se- |
Curity Administration and your
Post Office promptly when you|
move. Your checks are less I
likely to be delayed when you
change your address, if you re-1
port your new address properly
and promptly.
With the delivery of so many
checks, you can understand
there are bound to be many
people of the same name. So-j
cial security numbers are used
to identify each claim. This,
claim number identifies the.
the worker on whose account!
social security benefits are be-j
ing paid.
When a claim is filed, each
claimant is given a post card
to be used to report events |
•which would affect receipt of
his social security checks. One,
of the purposes of the card is
I
to report a change of address. 1

Thanks to R. Elton Forehand,
insurance and real estate in
downtown Edenton. WCDJ has
been able to start a most in
teresting new series. It’s en
titled, “Celebrity Calls,” and it's
heard every Monday, Wednes
day and Friday at 7:45 during
our Reveille with Roberts pro
gram. We have been, and will
continue to, talk to those who
make the news in the fields of:
politics, show business and
sports. If you’ve been listening;
to the program you’ve heard us
thus far talking to famed actor
Sidney Blackmer, and then the
honorable governor of our state,
Luther Hodges. We'll have
many more well-known folks to
talk to. Once again it proves
that in Northeastern North Car
olina, WCDJ leads the way
With something new. somethingj
different, something interesting. |
For Quite a while now, other j
stations have followed suit with I
many of our ideas, but as ourj
ratings recently showed, we're
ssll way out in front so far as!
listening audience is concerned.
Getting back to the new show,;
Celebrity Calls, permit me, to j
give you a behind-the-scenes,
balance at. what goes on. First ■
of all, much money in the form!
of fat phone bills. Secondly.)
much time. Placing the phone j
calls, and trying and trying to
get hold of the party or parties
we're after. Sometimes, we
have to contact them in advance
by letter, to set up the proper
arrangements. Then, if and
when we finally get them on
the phone, a little advance dis
cussion on questions to be ask
ed and how to go about the in
terview. However, once I get
hold of the celebrity involved
it’s easy. The hardest thing is
getting past their bevy of secre
taries, bodyguards and the like.
The rest is comparatively easy.
People in show business like to
talk about their current movie
or tee-vee play or song, and,
of course, politicians have much
to say in this election year of
1960. So, hope you’ll be sure
to listen every Monday. Wed
nesday and Friday morning at
7:45 to Celebrity Calls. There’s
not another local program like

The card provides space to show
the claimant’s name, claim num
ber, new address and signature
of the person entitled to receive
the check. These four items
must be shown so that the So
cial Security Administration can
change its records promptly and
mail the next check to the new
address. When any of the above
four items is missing, a delay
results.
If you are drawing social se
curity benefits and have chang
ed your address, be sure to fill
in the card given to you when
you filed your application. A
letter addressed to your local
social security office will serve
the same purpose. However, be
sure that in this letter you in
clude all four items—your name,
claim number, new address, and
signature. Also you should
supply your Post Office with
a change of address card.
If you prefer to use the spe
cially prepared post card form
and have misplaced yours, you
may secure another by contact
ing your local social security
office.

very proud of it here at WCDJ.
The beginning of a new
month and, whenever we get
the opportunity, we check over
the good movie situation for
you, and August is a terrific
month, movie-wise. We’ve got
“Huck Finn” coming to the Tay
lor Theatre this week-end. By
the way, if there are any young
’uns in your family, be sure to
listen to our program this Sat
urday morning. Got some good
news for the youngsters in con
nection with the “Huck Finn”
movie. Also this month is
“Fugitive Kind,” with not one,
not two, but three academy
award winner's starring—Bran
do, Anna Magnani, Joanne
Woowward. For science-fiction
fans these movies: “Battle In
Outer Space,” and 12 to the
Moon". Later. H. G. Wells’
‘Time Machine.” Jerry Lewis’
latest. “The Bellboy”, is com
ing up. as is “Hell To Eternity,"
the true story of a World War
II hero from the Tar Heel
State. The big musical offering
is “Bells Are Ringing,” starring
Judy Hollidav and Dean Mar
tin, and that should be a lot
of fun.
Closing thought: The easiest
way to remain poor is to pre
tend to be rich.
4-H Week: Summit

Raleigh Four-H Club Week
is many tilings to many hun
dreds of boys and girls and
their leaders.
For most of the 1,500 dele-|
gates, it's the summit of the
year’s work. For a few, it's
a spring board to greater heights
—national contests in faraway
states, the National 4-H Club
Congress at Chicago in late fall,
perhaps even to big-time enter
tainment stardom.
But, for all, it’s a chance to
show skill at the complex job
of farming and homemaking.
There is, for instance, the top
man at judging livestock. Im
mediately, he wins a trip to
the National Livestock Contest
at Chicago just after Thanksgiv
ing. He and the other three
leading winners will also show
their skill at the Virginia State
Fair in September at Richmond.
But there may be a much
deeper meaning for the winner.

His ability to gauge the quality
of cattle, sheep and hogs may
lead into a successful career

and brandings and livestock

the Old North State with its
tobacco and cotton heritage look

The girl who walks around
the long tables in the coliseum

a prize, too. She hopes to get
a free trip to the national con-1

But she’s learning what to
buy at her home-town gro

the cash registers will find that
she knows what a “Number

They won't be able to sell her
any with wireworm or scurf
damage, or any of a multitude
of other defects. She'll know,
too, all about the quality fac

a lamp in the front window of
the house, hoping that by a wild
stretch of imagination she might
return. Then one night she
came back in all her misery and
shame. When the old man greet
ed her and she sensed his love
and all his heartbreak, her
heart cried out in love and re
pentance also. God is like that!
We must not assume that the
love and forgiveness which Mo
sea preached come easily, how
ever. Any understanding of the
cross makes it plain that God
could not easily have overlooked
the hatred of the men who cru
cified Jesus. It was not easy,
but God forgave. Indeed, “Love
is patient and kind.” (I Corin
thians 13:4).
This attitude of love makes
all the difference in the world.
Many persons are sick because
they have been denied love!
Some of them even recover
when this need is met. It is
confidence, appreciation, com
radeship, trust, and, over and
above all, undying good will
that these persons need. Is this
not a wonderful area in which
Christians can demonstrate un
selfish love?
Treatment of prisoners, also,
is a long and dreay tale of
“man’s inhumanity to man.” It
is true that we have come a
long way in our prison system
from the days of notorious New
gate Prison in London, and from
the time when prisoners were
chained and flogged and forced
to live in the most bestial con
ditions. Our prisons, nowadays,
are cleaner, and prisoners are
now able to secure an education
while they are incarcerated. But
we still, in the main, imprison
wrongdoers to punish them rath
er than to redeem them. If we
cdUld free ourselves of social
snobbery, we would find many
occasions for helping the im
prisoned or others who suffer
in various ways. Jesus him
self said that the truly faith
ful would be greeted with the
words, “Come, O blessed of my
Father, inherit the kingdom pre
pared for you ... I was in
prison and you came to me”
(Matthew 25:34-36). There is'
far too much aloofness between
respectable church folk and,
.their brothers in prison.
If wc are aware of God’s love
for his children, we will also
take a second look at capital
punishment. • How can the state
take the lives of persons when
they are God’s childeh? We.
are the state. Furthermore, sta-|
tistics seem to indicate that
capital punishment does not de
ter people from crime anyway.
