Journey to Bethlehem
And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the
world should be taxed.
(And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor Syria.)
And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city.
And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judaea, unto the city of
David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:)
To be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child. Luke 2: 1-5.
New Games Will Interest
Adults as Well as Offspring
The youngest set can join in the
family games this, Christmas, ?ven
without diplomas in readin' and
'ri! ill' ah<f 'nthm^ic. >
New game techniques have been
worked out which permit ihe kin
dergartners to play right along
with their older brothers and sis
ters, as serious competitors and not
merely kibitzers.
"Over the Garden WalF' is a
new idea in games, translating ?he
problem of gardening, into competi
tive fun for pre school children as
well as their elders. Players draw
cards representing pictures of vari
ous fruits and vegetables from a
pile and "plant" them in the rows
indicated in Ihcir individual gar
dens. Just like real gardeners
they encounter difficulties with
weeds, cutworms and rocks (repre
sented by cards) which, when
drawn, force removal of the fruit
and vegetable cards already plant
ed. Offsetting these obstacles are
"grow" cards representing sunshine
and rain. The first player to fill
his garden completely is the win
ner.
The trend to "real life" situa
tions for family games is evi
denced by a variety of card and
board games based on traffic haz
ards. and safety rules. Also trans
lated into fireside versions are ihe
techniques of football, baseball,
hockey and basketball. Vocational
interest* are stimulated by a series
of games dealing with world trade,
politics, real estate, oil, stocks and
bonds.
SHE KNOWS how much
more it costs to
replace household goods
Could your present insurance
replace your precious china and
glassware? linens, rugs, drapes?
>our family's clothing? jewelry,
furs?
Almost certainly not ? if they're
still insured at their original
values.

Class 3, car individually owned,
I for business and non-business use.
I and no operator under age 25; also
cars owned by corporations, co
partnerships and unincorporated
association, regardless of age of
operator: $42. increase $6.
The combined rates for the spe
cified classifications of commercial
vehicles excluding long haul truck
men operating lor-hire vehicles
are:
Class 5CA, vehicles used by re
tail stores, department stores, con
tractors. electric light and power
companies, etc.: territory 1, $70,

Class 4CA, vehicles used by

cleaners and dyers, frozen food
distributors, gasoline and oil deal
ers, grocers and butchers, laun
dries. wholesale distributors, etc.:
territory 1. S77. increase $10.: ter
ritory 2, $46, increase SC.
The increases do not apply to
I lonu haul trucking risks operating
for hire nor io passenger-carrying
buses operating under Public Util
ities commission and ICC permits.
Such trucks and buses are not sub
ject to rate regulation by the in
surance department as they are
specifically exempt under the rat
ing laws.
These classes of vehicles, being
extremely hazardous in their opera
tions, are written at much higher
premium rates than are vehicles io
which the above increases apply,
Cheek explained. The average an
nual basic premium on a long haul
truck operated for hire in North
| Carolina is S450. Basic limits in
surance on a truck operating be
! tween North Carolina and New
York City costs an average of $747.
This is the first increase in au
tomobile bodily injury and proper
ty damage rates in North Carolina
since Nov. 22. 1948. Effective Jan.
j 9. 1950. rates were reduced as fol
! lows: 14.0 per cent bodily injury
and 10.5 per cent property damage
for private passenger automobiles
and 22.2 per cent bodily injury and
15.1 per cent property damage for
commercial automobiles (trucks).
These reductions resulted in esti
mated savings to North Carolina
policyholders of $2,211,000 annual
ly. The above rate increases, ef
fective Dec. 17, 1951. are stimated
to result in an overall increase io
North ^Carolina policyholders of ap
proximately $2,142,000 annually.
