The social worker, by use ot the knowledge and skills of profes sional training, seeks to help ; people help themselves. He does not alt down and prescribe a cure ' for all their social ills but they work together in trying to find y the answer to their problems. In ' ' many eases the social worker ' must be a motivator., Many of his clients are so down and out eroo. S tionally due to their dire clr- " eumatances that motivation is their primary need. The social worker's construct ... tive purpose may take many ' forma, depending on the need of ' the person who seeks help, i Whether the person be aged, dls abled, orphaned, unemployed or i delinquent, the social worker as. suroes that there is an explana tion for the difficulty in which the person finds himself wMch vill lead to understanding and a plan for help. - One of the social worker's alms - is to help strengthen the life ot a family so that Its members can ' live useful, satisfying lives. How a community lives depends largely on how Its families live. ' Healthy family life teaches demo- cratlc living, sharing of oppor tunities, ; respect for others' ; rights, self-respect, tolerance, and happiness. . . . To be a social worker, one ' must like and understand people, and be able to inspire confidence In those needing help. The case worker's skill lnhelplngtroubled people, of pinpointing their prob. lama and then helping them find a good aoultlon to their problems takes professional training. One of the skills caseworkers use la Interviewing. By far the most extensive and the most Important Information comes to the case worker through the interview. The first Interview enables the caseworker and the applicant to get acquainted. A frank, thought. . fill discussion of the problem at hand is encouraged. Social work is a profession that seeks to help persons find the solution to many problems. The social worker's real goal la be ing of service or maintaining an attitude of helpfulness in all client Emergency FUNDS- are easy to have when you save regularly with Accounts Opened Daily - Hertford Savings & Loan Atsislaticn 121 N.

It Is a practical philosophy ot living woven into careful Judgment and evaluation of the real needa of people. It la an attitude which reaches out to all, and which la ever present. 1 Social workers are trained for discovering the broad range of human Ills a? helping each in dividual to decide what remedies among those available would be best for him. Many ot the rem. dies tor their problems cannot be met from Just the social serv ice program available. There fore, a social worker must be well acquainted with other re sources available in the com munity and state that may be ot assistance. By referral to other agencies and organizations many of the answers to many of the problems can be found. Not all people who come to the social workers are troubled; not all need financial assistance. Social service encompasses a wide field of services. Perhaps the person who needs helps wants to adopt a baby. The casework er will help him - for each of the 100 county departments of social services in North Carolina is an adoption agency. A case worker counsels with aged per sons who need advice and help in deciding whether boarding home or other group care is ap. propriate for them. The case worker helps in placing children in foster homes, in working with children who have behavior prob lems. They work with clients in trying to help them become self. sufficient by discussing available employment opportunities or training programs that will pro vide them with the skills neces sary for securing an adequate job. They tflscuss family planning with them with the skills necessary for securing an ade quate job. They discuss family planning with them and refer them to family planning clinics that may help them even further in controlling the number of chil dren they desire. And they help in securing financial assistance for the needy. All these and other services are a vital part of social services. Yes. the key person In the social services program is the social worker. It la the social worker who explains these ser. vices to the people who need them and who sees that the appropriate service is provided. Social workers have entered the social services field because of an earnest desire to help peo ple. It la the alert Interest ot the social worker and his informed resourcefulness la helplngtoflnd the answers to the problems he and the client discover that make his place In the social services program one of Importance.

This will be discussed at greater length during the Chamber's July meeting, a meeting which will also feature a. discussion on the subject of zoning. The group spoke about our newest Industry Coastal veneer, headed by two young men from Weldon who know the business and like the county. They have one little problem. They need poplar and will pay a good price for the good wood they can get.

July 4th Weekend Could Bring Death To 23 Persons Too much independence on the highways over the long In dependence Day weekend could bring death to at least 23 per sons in more than a thousand traffic accidents on North Caro lina's streets and highways, cau tions the N.C. State Motor Club. The official count of the holi day highway toll runs from 6 p.m. Thursday, July 3, through mid night Sunday, July 6, a 78-hour period. The July Fourth casualty list for a 102-hour period last year came to 26 killed and 771 injured in 1,472 accidents. Eleven of the deaths were recorded on Thursday the Fourth. Leading driver violations re ported were: speeding, 353; drove left of center, 198; failed to yield right-of-way, 171, failed to see movement safe, 134; and follow ing too closely, 109. "Since the Fourth falls on Fri day this year to make it an ex tended weekend, there will be a tremendous upsurge in traffic. especially to and from vacation areas," said Thomas B. Wat kins, president ot the motor club and the National Automobile As sociation. "The State Highway patrol haa done a remarkable job In holding traffic deaths to about eighty less than this time last year. Let's not spoil their good work with an outbreak of careless driving and a rash ot highway accidents. Re member, no one can 'bring 'em back alive' except you and the other drivers on our highways. Do your part in making this a safe and sane Fourth." ABOUT YOUR It's very Important to know the time and method of cutting summer flowers, to get the full beauty of cut blooma. Practically allflowera ahould be cut In early morning while wet with dew. At this time the petals and stems are filled with moisture-time the flowers are at their maximum freahnesa. The length of time flowers keep their freahneaa depends . largely on keeping their water absorbing capacity at its height. When this capacity declines, the flower wilts. There are a number of tricks that will help in this respect. Cut flower sterna tend to heal over and cloae the moisture tubes, so It's a good idea to shorten the sterna a half Inch every day. This doesnt apply to flowera Kaiser Aluminum I'm You save-because we have a carload of the big, wide sheet that's your best roofing and siding for years ahead. Covers more. Won't rust.

Shinning, well-kept floors are a pleasant welcome mat for household visitors . . . and with floor-care know-how. your floors can always be company ready! Amway Corporation, Ada, Michigan suggests the use of a wax remover, surface sealer and floor wax to help maintain floor beauty. The secret of a beautiful, ' long-wearing floor is cleanliness. A quality wax finish protective certainly does help . , . only until too many wax coatings build up. Then, all floor finishes should be removed down to the bare surface. Removing floor wax is too often a messy job involving back breaking work which is why it's usually postponed. Wax remover, such as that available from Amway, completes the job quickly, easily and economically, too. It's also an efficient cleaner as the initial step to using surface sealer and floor wax for the first application. A place to watch for wax build up is the back entrance to the kitchen, right inside the doorway where traffic and tracked-in mud is heaviest. When this area re mains dark despite scrubbing or additional coats of wax, it's time to remove the accumulated wax and start again. When selecting a floor wax, it's wise to choose one which is self-polishing and buffable. Amway's floor wax is such a combination . . . it goesor easily as a self-polishing wax that dries quickly to a high gloss which can be renewed just by buffing. Using such a combination bridges the . gap between water-based, self polishing finishes and heavy-duty paste waxes, with the advantages of both and the drawbacks of neither. ' Self-polishing finishes dry to a high gloat but are not "water proof so they tend to waterspot and dull floor when scrubbed or mopped, making it necessary to rewax the entire floor. Paste wax, on the other hand, elimin ates this problem by being buff able . . . but it's not easy to apply and must be buffed or band rubbed. Paste wax tends to be expensive and has floor finishes limitations. For keeping your floors look ing their ben, Amway Corpora tion often these floor-care know how suggestions: like polnaettiaa and oriental popples, whose stems should be a arid ot boiled to keep In the Juices. Strip the leaves from the part of. the atom that Is to be submerged for flowers like dahlias, zinnias, and mangolds. Crush the stems of chrysan themums, and break off the thorns on the lower part of rose stems tolncreaae water absorp tion. .. The life of out flowera can also be prolonged by changing the water and washing the vast each day, tbua keeping down the growth ot bacteria. Never crowd the stems Into a vase when arranging your flow ers, and don't place your bou quet near a heat outlet, or an . oil or gas heatar-slnce the fumea will put the flowera to aleep. Twin - Rib8 roofing 1. Strip down non-porous (pure vinyls and rubber tiles) floors frequently. The more coat-. ings of wax allowed to accumu late, the more difficult they will be to remove later. 2. Porous (linoleum, asphalt tile, cork, wood, etc.) floors should NOT BE STRIPPED AS OFTEN as several coats of wax may be necessary to fill the pores again and build up a new finish. Or, use a diluted wax remover solution for more frequent light strippings. 3. To keep the color true in light colored floors, stripping should be more frequent than on dark floors. 4. Always thoroughly rinse the floor with water after using wax remover or detergent before applying floor wax. Such residues may become gummy and will not produce a shine. 5. Frequent, light, cold-water moppings, followed with a light buffing, will keep a waxed floor looking new-pennybright with out applying many coals of wax. 6. Be sure ALL old floor wax is removed before applying the new. -Gummy, dull spots will result if partially removed soften ed wax is left on the floor and new wax applied over it. . 7. When 'removing old floor wax, use very hot water, mixing with the wax remover according to directions. If there are many coatings of wax to remove, let the solution stand 10 minutes, apply more and let it soak through. ; 8. Floors maintained by elec tric buffing need not be stripped as often because the wax is con stantly re-distributed over' the floor by the buffing action and kept to a minimum thickness. Check place a buffer cannot : reach, especially corners, for wax accumulation. 1 9. NEVER mop wax remover andwatersolution on wood floors because the water seeping Into the crevice may cause warping. Instead, sponge remover solu tion on wood floor sparingly then sponge lightly with clear water and dry with a cloth, 10. True cork floor should be heavily and frequently waxed. This will darken the color' some what but, once dirt penetrate the wax coating and it ground ' into the floor surface, it' almost impossible to remove. HDSB ' Summer brings flowers, pic nics, baseball, outdoor fun , and bugs! If you've wondered where all the flies and mosquitoes come from, it's because they breed to rapidly. ' It has been estimated that , if one pair of houseflies start ed a family in May and every member of each generation lived and bred, the entire face of the globe would be buried a foot deep in flies by September! Birds, bad weather and other insects keep the crowd down, but there are still enough left over to be a nuisance and danger to man, Bug Spray, available from Amway Corpor ation, has a 90 kill formula and is safe to use around - humans, animals, and food. Additional advantages of Amway's Bug Sprly are its i fast action on contact with ; insects, its lack of toxic residue and the fact that insects do : not become , resistant fttr repeated use. I Another feature of Amway's Bug Spray is she scent. Amway -has been able to dispense with. the familiar insect spray odor, and substitute a more pleasant scent. . . Amway . suggests that in secticide tusert to not be confused, with the term "or game" in relation to safety of ' insect spray. Many of the ' most toxic sprays are "organic' " compounds. The safety of a spray depend on the ingredient in the formula, the amount of, ; each ingredient used, and the way it is dispensed. . ' . Two Register fit : Udvcrntyh Chilian Douglas M.
