There ain't no accounting fer a

was going to town this morning to

afternoon she hadn't bought a dab
burned thing. And I'll bet she pest
ered the daylights out of half the
store clerks in town. Why is it that
wimmen is always going "window"
shopping? I ask her the same, ques
tion and she said fer the same
reason a man was always going
fishing and didn't catch nothing. I
was sorry I ever mentioned it to
her in the first place.
It's hard to say. Mister Editor.

SCCIAl SECUIH
- By Maariee VL Moore-. ,
' Some 550,000 disabled ' workers,
their wives, and minor children are
now receiving monthly social secur
ity disability benefits totaling $48
million a month. Many more will be
drawing benefits soon as a result
of the recent change in the law
providing payments to disabled
workers aged SO to 65 were eligible
for payments. y
Today, the Social Security Act
provides monthly benefit protection
for disabled workers and their fam
ilies, just the same as for retired
workers and their families, land for
the families of deceased workers.
To qualify for disability insurant
benefits, a worker must be disabl
ed for any substantial gainful work,'
no ne must nave worked for a suf
ficient length of time under the so
cial security program.
The work requirements for en
titlement to social security disabil
ity benefits are a little more strict
than the normal requirements for
old-age and survivors insurance. In
addition to meeting "the disability
requirements, a disablied worker
must have had at least five years
work under social security in the
ten years prior to the onset of his
disability. The work need not have
oeen rou tune or steadv. but ii
must have been performed in em
ployment or self -employment cover
ed Dy tne social security law.
When a worker becomes Kprim.c'v
disabled,, with a disability that is
considered to be permanent or long
lasting, he or a member of his
family should contact the nearest
social security district office to ob
tain specific Infermation about his
possibile rights under ; the social
security program. Rleht now. di.
abled workers under aee so. who
have not applied to their social sec
urity office in the past to have their
social security records ' frozen,
should get in touch with that office
now. Payments to them and their
dependents cannot begin until they
make application. The social sec
urity office Jn Wilmington is locat
ed at 14 S. 16th St.-' '.. . i
Pisabled workers Under; age ' 50
who have already applied to have
their social security records frozen
need not contact their social securi
ty offices now They will be notified
by mail of what they need to do, if
anything, to get. their payments

Consider the case of the poet V

gins his poem by
rejoicing in the
happUMae of a

his sins forgiven.
The forgiving
touch of God does
indeed bring joy
to the heart. But
the sense of God's
presence had not

The turning-point in that poet's
experience came at the point where
he "declared his sin," when . he
broke uown and confessed. There
. is no mention here of any "Con
feasor" who stood in the place of ,
" God. The- sinner faced his God '
directly. He roads his confession .
"' at first hand, tfy-':',
' Much is said about a forgiving
' God. He is even thought of
' . kind of glgank forgiving-machine,
with pardons rolling out like news
papers from a printing-press. Not
at an. God's forgiveness is never in
the Bible said to he automatic.
i There are ' eondiUons. - The . main
condition ia certainly not to get a :
great deal better, or even a little .
' better, before God will consent to
do anything foT you. That's hardly '.
1 possible. The eondition is that yon.
1 face your self , your actual sinful
-selfish mean self, get a good look
and be ashamed. The condition Is
. that you realise you cannot forgive
yourself , you don't need to and it
. will do you no good. What you need
'' is forgiveness from a higher source, - -nothing
short of God.
0i art's Way
After 'God has' forgiven,' then
what? Do I lt dows happily and
. contemplate his gracer-Do I take '
up my time with hallelujahs t Do X
spend, the rest of my life writing" -
songs about God's forgiving love? '
x Not so. It Is true, the. experience
''of relief, release and rejoicing, that 1
. overwhelms one who has repented ';'
'and cenf eased, has Inspired many: ;
another forgiven sinner, and not
only the1 author of Psalm 32, to ?1
write poetry describing his great V ',
experience. But most of life is not :;
. poem-writing. Life for the forgiven'., ..
man is like a road, it stretches out
into the future, and it is not always ;
' clear . daylight on that ? highway;
. Confusing. shadows lie across it, 'i
man needs guidance. That is the
point of verses 8 and of Psalm
; 32., The forgiven inan is in touch- v
.. with God in a new way:' the Lord
is his guide. He had been like a
fractious mule, pulling away from
?3od a!l the time, and feeling sore '
,from the bit pulled tight. Now God
"xlla h'.m to be a man, not a mule
any longer,' a man, not a beast, a -"Tin

tj ' something more than wisdom , '
' on the waypf Godf there la love. A-K
t less than loving: God Is' not going to i C
j oe a forgiving God. And so the for- -
j given man looks baclc and realizes v.
