KNOW YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY
John T. Grooms, representative of the Social Security
Administration, is in Edenlon every Thursday at the North
Carolina Employment Security Commission office in the
Citizens Bank Building.
In my last article on the 1961
amendments to the Social Se
curity uaw, I described the in
crease in the the Social Security
benefits payable to aged widows
and widowers and to certain
aged dependent parents.
In this article, I would like
to tell you about another group
whose Social Security benefits
are raised. They are the 2,175,-
000 persons who now receive
Social Security benefits at or
near the minimum level of $33
a month.
The change raises the mini
mum level to S4O a month. Un
der the new law, the lowest
benefit payable to a worker who
retired at 65 or later will be
S4O, beginning with the checks
mailed early in September. 1961.

1961 Lilliston Peanut Combine
We can count more than 25 improvements Lilliston
has made this year. Large and small, general and
technical, they add up to the finest piece of combining
equipment that ever harvested a peanut crop. Come
in as soon as you can and we’ll go over them together.
We think this new Lilliston will make you more money
than has ever been possible before.

workers will also receive in
creases in their benefits if the
increase will not raise the total
family payment above S6O.
Where there is only one person
getting benefits based on the
Social Security account of a
worker who has died, the sur
vivor will have his or her
monthly payment increased to
S4O.
There will also be a small
increase in the payments to sur
vivor-families who have been
getting a total family payment
of less than S6O.
These increases, amounting to
an estimated $255 million during
the first twelve months they
will be in effect, will be made
automaticaly. There is no need
for beneficiaries to apply for the
increase.

A Little At a Time
Your skin can get older than
you are. Those who get a gor
geous suntan year after year, do
so at the expense of skin that
may get wrinkled, dry and dis
colored before its time. That's
what too much sun can do to'
you. |
Aside from the fun and re- 1
laxation of it, nothing about
toasting in the sun is especially
good for you. However, people
will continue to seek a sun
bronzed skin so . . .
—Remember sunburn is a hue
burn that can really make you
suffer.
—Don’t spend more than twen
ty minutes in the sun the first
time out.
—lncrease your sunning time
gradually.
—Use a suntan lotion or cream
while you are getting your
tan. Put on more lotion or
cream whenever you come out
of the water and renew it ev
ery two hours.
—Don’t be fooled by a cloudy
day. The burning sun rays
come right through.
—The sun is strongest for about
two hours before and after
noon.
—You get more of a bum at the
beach than in the country be
cause sunlight reflects from
water and sand. But you can
still get a burn midst the
greenery, so better observe
that twenty minute limit first
tripe out, wherever you are.
Nothing save divine power is
capable of doing so much for
man as he can do for himself.
—Mary Baker Eddy.
Some of us might find happi
ness if we would quit struggling
So desperately for it.

blunt our sense of propriety, and
loosen our inner controls. Or
with the same amount we can
buy the Bible, thus making
available for ourselves the wis
dom that leads to righteousness
and joy. With our money we
can pamper ourselves with some
unneeded comfort, or we can be
a partner with Christ in his
work. Dorcas was honored be
cause she served others wi#h
the means that she had. What
we gain to use only for our
selves never makes us truly
rich. We can see the proof of
this anywhere we care to look,
beginning even with ourselves.
So, says Jesus, in effect, “Do
you want to become rich? Then
try giving yourself away.” This
is what Dorcas did.
Our Lord recognized the im
portance of getting, if one is to
live; but he emphasized also
that blessedness the greatest
joy of life —comes only as we
relate getting to .giving. It is
only as we emulate the exam
ples of persons like Dorcas that
we become truly rich. And, of
course, the Supreme Example is
Jesus himself. Although he died
at thirty-three, he was the rich
est man who has ever lived. He
was rich in heart and mind, rich

in achievement of good that
would live on after him, rich
in abiding satisfactions. He be
came rich through giving.
If we truly want to become
rich we must try giving our
selves away as did Dorcas. We
must try spending our lives for
values that are eternal. We
must invest ourselves in deeds
of mercy. We must support jus
tice, proclaim truth, create
beauty, serve righteousness, and
minister to others in a spirit of
love. In short, we must try to
give all we can of ourselves to
the work of Jesus Christ on
earth.
We are sometimes inclined to
grumble when our church makes
an appeal for financial support.
We need to remember that, the
money we give in regular pledg
es to support the budgets of our
churches makes us truly rich as
Dorcas was rich. By means of
our pledged to these budgets we
help open doors of healing and
hope and new life to millions
of people the world over, where
human needs are the greatest.
We need but to remember, of
such is the Kingdom of God,
