Owen-Lites By Grover Farr The Time Ha» Come People of the Swannanoa Valley, the time ha> come! That is, the time has come to buy your magazines. Yes, once again, we, the students of Charles I). Owen High School, are selling mag azines to raise money for our school. The juniors are selling to get money for their annual prom. The freshmen, sopho mores, and seniors are selling in order to raise money for our athletic department. Last year, as many of you remember, we juniors sold for the prom and the other three classes sold to raise money for the activity bus. As was explained in an as sembly Thursday morning, much money is needed to run our athletic department. We, the students, can help in this matter by using our salesman ship abilities. 1 am urging you, people of our community, to support Owen by buying magazines from our students. Not only will you be helping Owen, you will also be helping yourself. A magazine in your home can mean increased knowledge, in tellectual stimulation for you and your children, or just plain enjoyment. Why not have magazines of all three types? Do you have a hobby? If you do, there is probably a magazine which will add to the enjoyment of your hobby. If there is an Owen student in your family, help him and the school by subscribing to your favorite magazine(s). If there is no Owen student in your family, call one and give him an opportunity to show jou the wonderful variety of magazines offered at such reasonable ’ prices. We urge you to buy the magazine that you like best, but if you have no particular 'preference, we do. The school makes more money on the following magazines you will see listed in our brochure: Saturday Evening Post, 50 issues, $4.00; Redbook, 1 year, $3.00, 2 years, $5.00, 3 years, $7.50; Ladies’ Home Journal, 10 issues, $3.00; Teen 15 is Black Mountain Office of Asheville Federal Safety of Your Saving* Insured up to $10,000 "An Investment That Combines Good Yield With Conservatism" Asheville Federal Savings Accounts—safe, profitable, promptly available when you need your money.

Band Does Well in Bristol The Owen band left school in the wee hours of Saturday morning' in order to arrive in Bristol, Tennessee, in time for breakfast before their busy day in the Band Festival. They returned early Sunday morn ing. They had a twenty-three hour schedule which did not include time for sleep. I was able to talk with John Kichard Hipps, the band di rector, Sunday. He told me 'hat the band won a trophy and received a third-division rating. The Owen band was entered in Class B, which in cluded twenty-three bands. We will receive the scores in the middle of the week, but Mr. Hipps knows that the score will be between seventy and eighty out of a possible 100. He commented, “1 think the band did the best show they've ever done.” Congratulations The following people are National Merit Semi-Finalists: Becky Burgess, Ilse Hoenicke and Joyce Taylor. Harry Ham 1, who has transferred to Riverside, Illinois, is also a iemi-finalist. Congratulations and good luck to these four scholars. 4 Note u> Health . . .

The Rambler has particular cause for thankful ness. Deeper gratitude to a High er Source wells from the hearts of Ridgecresters for the recent protection of one of our citizens. No names were mentioned two weeks ago in the Asheville Citizen's report of the wreck following the run-away train down Sa luda Mountain, but it was our Leonard Biddix who discover ed the brakes were not func tioning and the train was aining speed. When all ef forts to stop the train failed, he and three other members of the crew on the Deisels leaped for safety, sustaining more or less minor injuries, whereas they would almost certainly have met death had they remained on those en gines, which smashed in the woods. How thankful can we be! Eleven young people of the Intermediate Department of the Sunday School, undaunted by clouds, enjoyed a treasure hunt and weiner roast late Saturday afternoon. Meeting at the Church, the group went to Ridgecrest Boys’ Camp where tho play-shed gave shel ter and space for fun. Mr. and Mrs. John May and Mr. and Mrs. Paul Turner were the adults who accompanied the young folks and sponsored their good time. Six members of Junior Girls’ Auxiliary held their regular meeting on Saturday afternoon in the home of their counselor, Mrs. George L. Hocutt. After the meeting they all went with her to Dogwood Manor to take flow esr and pay cheery visits to Dr. and Mrs. W. L. Hatcher and Mrs. Edith Beam. Mrs. S. C. Gill is at home again and improving slowly after spending some days last week in an Asheville hospital. Using the school holiday Tuesday of last week for a be lated celebration of her tenth birthday, Eugenia Cowherd entertained ten of her vouni? friends for luncheon in her home.

Guests included Diane Allen, Thel ma Allison, Kathy Carter, Shirley Green, Darlene Lakey, Kathy Ann May, Linda Ra bourne, Rebecca Singleton, and Martha and Mary Worley. Six others were invited but were unable to come. Eugenia’s real birthday, Thursday, September 24, was also the birthday of both of her parents, Rev. and Mrs. Charles P. Cowherd, mission aries to Hong Kong. Friday was a most enjoy able day for Mrs. W. P. Ree ves, Mrs. W. R.

The first Saturday we had as visitors from Newport, Tenn., Mr. and Mrs. Alfred Parker, daughter Doloris and son Donald with Miss Polly Stuart, all up for the Davis Dalton reunion and for the singing Saturday night at Da vistown Church. The Parker family are noted singers. Because of continuing rain neither was well attended. Singers were the Parker fam ily. Alfred with guitar and wife Lucille as alto sang sev eral numbers which were im mensely enjoyed. Then Al fred and Polly Stuart as so prano sang several numbers. The “True Gospel Trio” from Johnson City rendered several numbers which were enjoyed by all. They had records in their car for sale. This is a very noted trio. Rev. Sluder and great niece, Miss Shirley Parham, from Leicester, gave several French harp dueta, this was unusual but very entertaining. Mr. and Mrs. Gordon Walk er and small child gave two numbers, interesting because of the little girl’s beautiful voice. By request Gordon gave a rendition of “When the Saints Go Marching In", accompanying himself on the guitar. Coy Davis, Jr., with his electric guitar, with Roberta Y’ess at the piano with Mrs. Mrs. Kill McPeters as alto sang several popular hymns. Coy and his guitar accompan ied the Brooks girls through a few numbers. The Rev. Roberson and his quartette from Kills Creek sang a few numbers. Their pianist was exceptionally good, he and a professional (no not know his name) gave two piano duets, which were very good. Sunday morning it was pouring the rain, yet many braved the rain to attend the reunion. The musical part of the program was turned over to the Parker family be cause of the necessity of an i ariy start for home in New port. By request they sang sev eral numbers, Lucille as alto and Alfred with his guitar, l ading. By request Miss Pol ly Stuart sang, “Will My Lord Be Satisfied with Me?” and three repetitions of, "You Ask Me Why I'm Thankful." Ev eryone seemed happy and some requested a copy from Polly of the last mentioned song. Then an exceptional ser mon was delivered by the Pas tor, Rev. Stockton. One ques tion he asked was, “If God should come today to find a mother for His Son, could he find a woman with the neces sary qualifications to mother His Son? Dinner on the grounds was impossible. Visitors were in vited into the homes. I turned my box over to the Parker family to carry along to eat on the way while we ate with our daughter and family, Mr. and Mrs. Emory Vess. This group gathering finish es our social activities until another year. The preacher asked, “Whose face will be missing on Sunday, October 1st., 1965?” By D. C. NichoU Field Representative Under the Social Security law, both you and your do pendents can get benefits if you are disabled from work ing. If you become so disabled that you can no longer dor any kind of work—after be ing covered long enough under the law—you may qual ify for monthly payments. If you become eligible for such disability benefits, payments can also be made for your children under 18. and for any child over age 18 who has been disabled since be fore he reached 18; to your wife regardless of her age if she has in her care a child who is eligible for payments, and to your wife at age 62 even if there are no children entitled to payments. If you are now receiving disability insurance benefits but your dependents are not, get in touch with your social security office—or see the representative—about having your dependents apply for benefits.

"YOU CAN DO YOUR BEST" One of the biggest chal lenges to young people in schools and colleges is the choking pressure of compe tition. The question is how can a person be free from these tensions in order to do his best?
