KNOW YOOR SOCIAL SECURin ~
John T, Groom*, representative of the Social Security
Administration, is in Eacnion every Thursday at the tfortn
Carolina Employment Security Commission offios in the
Citizens Bank Buildng. T
We believe that some farmers |
in this area may be missing “a|
good thing” when it cejnes tO|
social security. They should be
keeping records of all fawn in-|

be able to file compelte' and
correct self-employment tax re

Many farmers are still a
good distance away from retire-,
ment age, and many have chil-l
dren under age 18. Some of
these farmers may not be taking]
advantage of the option or i
choice in the social security law p
that allows them to report earn-,
ings for social security purposes'
* even though their actual' net I
earnings for the year are less
than S4OO. j
k Os course, if a farmer actually i
has net earnings of S4OO or 1
ymore in a year he has no choice. I
He is obligated to report these
earnings as a part of his Fed-'

I earnings are SIBOO or less, he)
I may report—for social security
purposes—two-thirds of his gross
|as his “net”. Thus, a farmer
who had a gross income of SISOO
could report two-thirds of this
amount, or SIOOO, as his net
, earnings for social security pur
: proses, even though his actual
' net might be less than S4OO.
Likewise, a farmer whose gross
I earnings are over SIBOO may
i report SI2OO as his “net” (for
i social security purposes only)
even though his net may be be
| low S4OO. In order to receive
social security credit for the

lat least S4OO. Some younger
I farmers may not be taking ad
vantage of this option. They
I may not realize that, in failing
to do so, they are not providing

5. Label all boxes as this will

6. Store summer felt hats care

7. Wash bathing suits before

Sunday School Lesson
THE SUM OF TRUE
RELIGION ’ ‘
International Scnday School
Lesson for Sept. 25, 1960.
Memory Selection: “He has show
ed you, iO man, what is good;
and what does the Lord require
of you but. to do justice and
to love kindness, and to walk
humbly with your God?”
(Micah 6:8).
Lesson Text: Micah 6:1-8.
Today, adults should search for
the answer to the following
question: What is real religion?
Studying our Scriptures for to
day, we become aware of the
beginning of a controversy be
tween God and his people. God
asks the people why they have
fallen away from him. And vers
es 6 and 7 of this chapter of the
Book of Micah show the people
speaking to the prophet, asking
how they might come again to be
on good terms with the Lo'rd,
to which Micah replies that sac
rifice with the heart is what God
requires, rather than the fulfill
ment of external obligations.
We, too, would do well to
pause and ask ourselves what is
real religion? How do we dis
tinguish the genuine from th<

false, the good from the bad?
Everything of any value at all
is subject to misrepresentation.
Always we are in imminent dan
ger of deception.
Religion, representing the su
preme values, is most subject to
such betrayal. This was the
common concern of all the He
brew prophets. They constantly
strived to save their people from
false religion caused either by
imitating the bad religion of
their neighbors or by their own
self-interests.
In particular, this was the
concern of Micah. He saw his
fellow countrymen being led
down the road to doom by wor
ship of idols and by false pro
phets. Their religion had lost
its ethical meaning. It was long
on ritual, short on righteousness.
It drugged the conscience rather
than directing it along the right
paths. Their religion encouraged
men to believe that gifts of ma-
I terial things to God could be a
' substitute for the gift of their
hearts (which, was what God
most truly desired) and that at
tendance upon religions festi
vals and ceremonies would serve
as a substitute for the surrender
of themselves to God in service
for the common good. As a nat
ural consequence, that which
