Ambassador To The United States E. M. Debrah, Ambassador to the United States from Ghana, proved a very pop. ular visitor during a visit to Bennett College last week. The ambassador is shown her* during a question and answer session wtih students and college officials. GHANA AMBASSADGR SAYS: "EDUCATION MEANS SERVICE" What is the purpose of an education? It is to prepare one to compete and make a living in today's complex society? Not so says E. M. Debrah, Ambas sador to the United States from Ghana. "The challenge of Today's youth," Mr. Debrah said in a speech at Bennett College last week, "is to accept the fact that their education is intended to prepare them to be a part of the society from which they originate; and to work dilligent ly towards removing Its misery and its handicaps." Mr. Debrah was in Greens boro as the second Bennett Col lege Forum speaker of the year. "We must reject any false edu cation," he said, "which gives us a feeling of superiority over others. We must, on the other hand, embibe that system which gives us the inner conviction that life without service has no meaning; and as long as poverty, oppression, illiteracy, ghetto conditions, despair, inferiority complex and hunger exists in our community, our education has served no purpose." A quotation from Seneca is quite convincing, "Even if others hold the front hoe and your lot his placed you among those on the third line; from where you are, do service with your voice, encouragement, example and spirit. Even though a man's hands are cut off he finds he can do something for his side in (Continued on 4) Woman's Chances of Collecting Social Security Belter Than Man's "If you're a woman, your chances of collecting social se curity benefits are better than those of your husband or your brother," according to Charles H. Myers, district manager of social security in Greensboro. "Fifty-one percent of our ben eficiaries are adult women," said Myers, "while only 34 per cent are adult men. In addition, he noted, It was women who manage most of the benefits paid to the 15 percent of social security beneficiaries who are children." "A woman who works builds valuable retirement and disa bility protection for herself and her dependents," Myers pointed out. And payments are payable to her children in the event of her death just as in the case of men. A woman who has not worked outside her home may qualify for social security bene fits on her husband's record. "You might say," Myers said, "that the social security law recognizes that being a house wife and mother is a special career." "Some of the ways you can qualify for social security pay ments as a woman are: (1) As a wife, when your hus band is getting social security benefits and you are 02 or older, or have children under 18, or (Continued on Page S) . ___ THANKS TO YOU Thanks to the youth who live in the Warren Housing Pro ject. A group of teenagers or ganized themselves in groups and brought candy, apples, or anges, and nuts which they bag ged and carried to all of the shut-ins in the hospitals and convalescence homes all day Tuesday before Christmas. To the many who do not be lieve in Santa Claus, if you had seen this group you would have seen Santa in action. Here-to belore, the teenagers living in the housing project would have looked for some charitable or ganization to give them their Christmas, but this little group from the Warren Housing Pro ject changed the old course. They started to find that for gotten group, the shut-in, the chronic ill, the old age, and those who are unable physically to find Christmas for them selves. These youths should be given a word of thanks for finding the shut-in to give them the enjoyment that they are able to receive. The staff of the Fu ture Outlook sends thanks to you and others who share their faithfulness in running such voluntary service during this Christmas season. The VA says the current 335, 351 enrollment in institutions of higher learning is a 28 per cent increase over the 261.347 in training in college at the end of October 1968. A Thought Co Firtw .
