KNOW YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY | I , John T. Grooms, representative of .the Social Security ! I Administration, is in Edenton every Thursday at the North I •Caroline Employment Security Commission office in the j end of 1960, more than 1,085 people in Chowan County vr«pe receiving old-age, sur vivors and disability insurance benefits. The total benefits paid to’;<hese people for December, 19®, were $48,184.00, according to John T. Grooms, Field Rep resentative of the Norfolk, Viiv ginia, Social Security District Office. “This is an increase in the number of people receiving benefits by about eighteen per oeht oyer the same month last jfeafr,” he said. almost fifteen mil ljfdtl people were receiving about a.lxllion dollars a month in old age* survivors, and disability in surance benefits at the close of ISQO. Many of these people wjre made eligible for benefits changes in >the law made i£t 1960 —such as the reduction amount of work required to. qualify for benefits and the removal of the age fifty require ment for disability benefits. Payments to a retired worker ♦with ■no dependents receiving benefits averaged $70.00 in De cember, 1960; to a retired couple, bbfh benefits, the average payment was $124.00.

Changes in the law since 1935 have brought more than nine out of every ten people in the 1 United States 'protection by old age, survivors, and disability in surance—protection paid for by i taxes on employees, their em ployers, and the self-employed.

SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON Coni'd. from Page s—Section 2 The church must assist in this preparation by helping all in dividuals, especially adults, de velop an understanding of life’s meaning consistent with this philosophy. Too often the church’s approach to its older members has failed to under stand them and omitted the em phasis upon a wholesome Chris tian philosophy of life that helps them understand themselves. Too often we have acquiesced in EDEKTOK;.WORTH*CAROLINA, THTTBBPAY, JUNE », im. the somewhat sab-Christian ap proach to life which ignores a creative concept of aging until it is too late and the aging is at j hand and the time of preparation , has been dissipated. A creative . concept of aging is the church’s i greatest challenge as it seeks to minister to older adults. Preparation that' conforms to Timothy’s definition of the good life must begin with the early and middle years. One can never be too young to begin this particular type of preparation for old age. The major help that any per isan needs from others, regard less of age, is understanding and acceptance. These needs are merely magnified and all the more required by older per sons. Because their pattern of life varies considerably from that of active persons engaged in business or other adult occu pations, we frequently fail to comprehend their problems and anxieties. And failing in this, we appear to reject them be cause they are “different.” Un derstanding and acceptance of those' who are older are gifts that we can give at little cost to ourselves, but at great value to the recipients. Do we, as Christians, faithful to our calling as disciples of Jesus, dare withhold this preci ous' gift from our elders?

Frankly Speaking] By FRANK ROBERTS V ' A few months ago one of my columns concerned the “goofs” that come to our WCDJ news rooms via the Associated Press wire service. Many of these go on the air as written, many oth ers are eliminated beforehand, but all of them are sort-of in teresting. Anyway, since that last columns I’ve been saving another bunch, one or two of Which might be interesting to you. One release, for instance, actually referred to Kennedy as Prime Minister Kennedy. The Atlantic Treaty Organization be came the Atlantic Treating Or ganization. A baby-talking tele typist referred to leukemia as weukemia. A story about Churchill had his 'age listed as ■ 186. - Another teletyptist from Brooklyn, perhaps, wrote “ting” instead of thing. In another in stance, krwdorwn became dow down. Postal wages 'became postal rages’. One of my fav orites was datelined Venezuela, wheire some Castro sympathizers were evidently shouting out Cuba Yes, Yankees No.” Well, a sports-minded reporter sent it out reading: “Cubs Yes, Yan kees No.” Speaking of sports, Sam Snead was referred to as Same Snead, and speaking of Cuba, the war there was called the vivil war, instead of civil war. In other stories Virginia came out as Virginis; civilians became cilians; latest became lastest. President deGaulle, was called deFaulle. Eisenhower’s pet retreat, Camp David, became Cape David. Then, Sacred Heart Junior College became known as Sacred Hart. Those generals that started the Algerian revolt were gleeing midtown Algiers at one point. Should’ve been flee ing, I guess. On a weather re port gusts of wind was written as guests. On a news story from Africa, the Congo became the Congoo. Also from Africa, Mo butu was referred to as Moh tootoo. Back in Washington, it was reported that a certain bill would probably be passed in Congress before the days is over. 1 One story alone, 'had two dif-‘ ferent spellings for Los Ange les. One came out as Low An i geles and the other as the Los Angeles Angeles. Wild fowl l was written as foul. More on ■ sports and allied subjects. A 1 report on the track at Churchill Downs had it that the truck was wet. From Korea a story was posted about troops digging dox holes. Also from that section of the world the Laotian stale mate became known as the stablemate by that fellow who still had his mind on wet trucks. Once again, back to sports, and ■ a report on a game in which the ; Athletics beat the Twins, 4to , v, it was reported that the los . ing pitcher allowed hits. Fig , ures. Another of my favorite . stories was about Khrushchev t who, according to this one story, r was to leave tomorrow by train • tonight for Vienna. A Danish , vessel became a Banish vessel. , Testimony became testimoony. j There were plenty of others, , some completely un-readable, . others not quite for family con . sumption. Anyway, it keeps us . on our toes, and gives 'us some -5 one to blame, for any goofs you t might hear over the air. 5 Closing thought: There are i three difficulties in authorship: ’ to write anything worth pub-. , lishing, to find honest men to j | publish it, and to get sensible men to read it. Renewed Vigilance Challenge Os Today | In a special message to the annual meeting o fthe 'Muiner Church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, held in Boston, Mass., on June 5, the directors called for renewed vigilance on f the part of all who cherish free dom, brotherhood and truth. “Among the stirring headlines of our day,” they said, “there is, no more vital news than the ‘ Christianity which our Master 1 taught and practiced. In an age of political tyranny and ecclesi astical despotism, of turbulence, I unrest, and hatred, Christ Jesus came preaching that the king- j dom of God is at hand. He wielded a power which the might of materialism could neither parallel nor resist. 1 “Humanity is crying out for | freedom. Peoples are clamor- j ing for liberty; nations are being bom; the barriers of time and space are crumbling ... In the fields of religion, government, j education, discovery, invention,' industry and medicine, matter is slowly yielding to Spirit.” CHRISTIAN SCIENCE The mental nature of fatigue will be explained at Christian i Science services Sunday in a Lesson-Sermon on the subject “God the Preserver of Man.” Isaiah’s comforting assurance of divine strength will be read from the Bible (Isa. 40): “They that wait’ upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall j mount up with wings as eagles;! they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk, and not faint.” A correlative selection from “Science and Health with Key i to the Scriptures” by Mary Bak er Eddy states in part (p. 217): | .“The scientific ' and permanent ! remedy for fatigue is to learn j the power of Mind over the 1 body or any illusion of physical weariness, and to destroy this illusion, for matter cannot be weary and heavy-laden.” The Golden Text is from the first chapter of Joshua: “Be strong and of a good courage; be not afraid, neither be thou dismayed: for the Lord thy God dis with thee whithersoever thou Completes Course V , J Airman David A. Bond, son of Mr. and Mrs. James E. Bond of Route 3, Edenton, has com pleted his initial course of Air Force basic military training at Lackland AFB in Texas. He has been selected to attend the technical training course for Supply Specialists at Amarillo AFB, Texas. Airman Bond is a graduated of Edenton High School. Answered In Full The busybody was pumping the local doctor about the re cent demise of the town’s rich est man. “You knew him well,”- she said and then coyly inquired: “How much of his wealth did he leave?” With a tip of his hat, the old doctor replied: “All of it, ma dame, .all of it.” Legal Notices NOTICE OF SALE OF REAL ESTATE Under and by virtue of a Deed of Trust executed to Her bert Leary, Trustee, by Robert Brown and wife, Musetta Brown, dated May 18, 1953, and record ed in DT Book No. 65, page 325 etc., in the office of the Register of Deeds of Chowan County, North Carolina, default having been made in the pay ment of the indebtedness se cured by said Deed of Trust, said instrument being by the terms thereof, subject to fore closure, and the holder of the indebtedness thereby having de manded foreclosure thereof for the purpose of satisfying said indebtedness, the undersigned.
