Dear Editor: . » In my letter the other week I stated I would like to hear from any songwriters or lyric writers I hut I didn’t get one reply. Per ! haps there are no lyric writers or even jingle writers among your readers. Though I am yi a posi tion, if something worthy or ap pealing is written, to possibly it promoted to higher or pro fessional talent. Although I would not boost one’s hopes too high in songwriting. It is a highly compe titive business. I have just re ceived a letter from a publisher who said the chances of a ama teur getting a song published was 1 in 450,000. I think he had a lot of bad lyck. I am expecting two of my songs to be published soon.

Pinto H Beans jj ni » * KMnnawD For These Times P By: Roy x>. Brown j SOLVING PROBLEMS It is comforting to know that j we all have problems, otherwise f known as feara, doubts, or step ping stones. To solve todays •prob lems, assures us of a better to morrow. They are the tools that fashion us for greater things. Therefore we should not only welcome all of our problems, but also face them apd solve them, J as they present themselves. An 1 ameba, the lowest'form-of t life, solves problems by butting - up against them and blowing - around them; but who wants to be ‘an ameba? * If we could be perfect, we would have no problems. Can anyone be 1 perfect? Jesus said “Be ye r therefore perfect, even as your > Father in Heaven.” (Mat. 5:48). We all strive for perfection, by ' seeking to forsee the future, as far as it is humanly possible. r However, most of us fail miser : ably.—Why,, There is a solution to 1 every problem, but to reach it, the first step is to .break it down, divide it into small parts. Next,) ask yourself a question, and care fully think aboul each small part. Socretes, the Greek Philosopher said, “Life without inquiry is no life for man.” What causes a problem? Its cause is often more important than $6 solution. Suppose yours is a financial one. Do you really have a problem, or are yq,u just worrying about" “What may hap pen?”—Do you need to bring in more income, or spend less, so as to conserve and keep what you already have? If your situation seems serious, you will gain com fort and peace of mind by strip ping it down to essentials and wipe out many annoying and de structive such as fear and hopeless wishes. When you stop your mind from dodging issues, of wondering off on detours, and face th e facts, the problem may solve itself —_ Information and facts are for thinking with: After knowledge comes insight—For these times of 1 constant change and ever in [ creasing chance the man with an Inquiring, seeking mind, win nor be caught unaware.—“ But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and His 'righteousness, and all these things shall be added unto YOU.” SOCIAL SECURITY BENEFITS WHILE WORKING By: George F. Leinwall, Field Rep. Yancey County The Social Security Adminstra tion has adopted a new proce dure which will reduce the time lapse from the point a clai mant attains retirement age to the point he actually rece ives his first benefit check. George F. Leinwall,, rep resentative serving Yancey Coun ty, states that the new plan allows a person to file his claim several weeks before h e attains retirement age (65 for men; 62 for women). Thus the claim can be processed wholly or partly before the person has attained retirement age. Mr. Leinwall suggests that persons approaching retirement age contact him at the Court House in Burnsville about 4 weeks or so before at taining age 65 (62 for women). Mr. Leinwall also pointed out that even speedier service can be obtained if th e retiring person brings with him the evidence which must be pre sented in support of a claim. This evidence would include proof of each claimants date of birth or age (a birth certificate is not required) and a copy of the worker’s tax withholding statement (Form W-2) for the past year, or, if self-employed a copy of his past year’s tax’ 5 re turn with evidence that the social security tax was paid. - - • ■" ■V- ■' 1 . —■—--■■ The Northwestern Bank .
