KNOW YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY
1 :% ,
lota T. Grooms, representative of ths Social Socuriiy
( I Administration, is in Edenton every Thursday at the North
I Carolina Employment Security Commission office in the
I Citizens Bank Buiidna.
I The Norfolk Social Security
[office has some good advice for
[people who became eligible for
Mpbial security benefits because
[of the ' 1960 social security
[amendments.
[J “To speed the payment of your ;
[first retirement check, bring the
[necessary proofs with you the
[first time you come in to file j
|a claim for benefits,” John T.
Grooms, Field Representative,
[said today
[ Any social security office can:
[furnish application forms and
[assist you in the completion of
[your claim. However, it is a
[good idea to know something
[about What information and |
[proofs you will be asked to fur-'
[nish. A telephone call to your
[social security office to find out
[what proofs are needed will
solve the problem in most cases.
When you apply for payments
on your own account, you will
need proof of your age and the
amount of your earnings for
last year.
The best evidence of age is aj
birth certificate issued shortly;
after birth, but if jnou do not
have a birth certificate, you can
prove your age in a number of
Pther ways. A baptismal record
s almost as good as a birth
Health For All
Nothing To Sneeze At
This is the month of the most
and worst colds. Right this min
ute some 201,000,000 people a.e
busy with nose-drops, cough
medicine, antihistamines, and
grandma’s pet remedy. No harm
done, but nothing you take can
prevent or cure a cold. You
can make yourseif more com
fortable in spite of your col 1,
and that’s always worth doing.
It’s usually best to stay home
the first day of a cold. Ihe
rest will help you fight the in
fection. And since you do n v ,st
Os your jet-propelled sneezing
the first day, other people will
appreciate it if you stay home,
because that’s the principal way
tcolds are spread.
1 Nosedrops can uncork a st-iff-
Fup nose. Aspirin relieves co d
-1 type aches and pains. Antik's-
I tamines won’t do much for cold
‘symptoms unless you have an
allergy of some kind at the same
I time. However, since many an
j tihistamines have a slight seda
| tive effect, they can make you
i care less that you have a cold.
I —Plenty of fluids are always
i good for you—make your sys
[t tern perk up. No special value
for colds, though.
[ft —Eat anytning you feel like
|j eating, but don’t gorge yourself.
Heavy meals take extra energy
i, to digest and you need all your
pep to fight the cold virus.
> —Forget about “sweating it
out.” That only makes you feel
weak.
* —Try to avoid hopping back
and forth from very cold to Very
hot temperatures. Makes your
symptoms worse.

CHRISTIAN SCIENCE
A hopeful message of univer
sal freedom will be delivered in
Christian Science churches Sun
day in the Lesson-Sermon en
titled “Man.”
Man’s rightful heritage of
freedom will be brought out in
the Scriptural selections which
include Paul’s advice to the Co
lossians (3:9-11): “Lie not one
to another, seeing 'that ye have
put off the old man with his
deeds; and have put on the new
man, which is renewed in
knowledge after the image of
him that created him: where
there is neither Greek nor Jew,
circumcision nor uncircumcision,
Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor
fiee: but Christ is all, and in
all.”
From “Science and Health
with Key to the Scriptures” by
Mary Baker Eddy will be read
1227:24-26): “Citizens of the
world, accept the ‘glorious lib
erty of the children of God,’
and be free! This is your di
vine right.”
For children, there is neither
past nor future and what so
rarely happens to us—they take
pleasure in the present.

cipleship emphasized in today’s
Scripture is the command that
we love one another. The obli
gation to love is as old as hu
man life, but here it receives a
new emphasis because Jesus
gives holy love a new motive.
He does this by relating his love
to his death. His sacrificial dy
ing gives both measure and
meaning to Christian love. . He
loved his disciples not only with
his life, but also with his death.
| To love more is utterly impossi
j ble. His love cost .him his life.
The test of our discipleship
is that we love as Christ loves.
This love of one Christian for
another is something very spe
cial. It goes beyond benevo
; lence, and it exceeds generosity.
! It is love that 'has become con
cern. Hence the two tests of
discipleship merge together in
one test —caring or acting love.
I True, holy love involves incred-
J ible suffering, as the story of
j the cross reveals. But love can
win its way only by suffering—
it has no other authority, no
j other weapon, ft succeeds orj
fails only as it expresses itself;
in concern. We do not identify!
a Christian by outward trap-;
| pings. We recognize him by his
serving love —love that is char
i acterized and clarified by the
practical good it does.
In the end 'the world will not
be won by campaigns, visita
tions or revival meetings, al
though each one of these has its
place. The world will be won,
our Scripture says, when Chris
tians come together in the warm
fellowship of holy love express
ed in caring sacrifice.
When will the world be
brought to Christ? Only when
it sees this test of discipleship
in living reality.

with the request of the Town I
Council that the Board of Pub
lic Works make recommenda-1
tions to them concerning a Water
and .sewer assessment no! icy for
the T<*wn of Edenton. i
The Board discussed in con
siderable detail the need for an
assessment policy and the ap
plication of various possible pol
icies as they may apply to the
Town of Edentpn. and after
these discussions the following
conclusions were unanimous:
The Town of Edenton should,
adopt an assessment policy as'
set forth in the General Statutes
of the State of North Carolina
and allow the Board of Public
Works 60 days in which to study
the poliev and make recommen-
I dations to 'the Town Council on
I the legislation required to bring
this policy in line with the
thinking of the two boards and
conditions as they exist in the
Town of Edenton. The unani
mous opinion of the Board of
Public Works is that by handling
the matter in this manner we
will have in the interim period
au assessment policy on which
corrective legislation could be
introduced, possibly before ac
tual application would be neces
sary. also it would be much
easier, less time consuming, and
more suitable as to legal appli
cation to handle this matter in
this manner rather than attempt
to write a complete new assess
ment policy.
