The cost disadvantage is prob ably the main reason that so far only three companies — Leath, McCarthy & Maynard, Inc., Na tional Mills, Inc., and Chadbourn Gotham, Inc. — are knitting Vectra fiber into stockings. A number of other mills have se cured production licenses from Vectra Co., but have adopted a wait - and - see attitude. ‘You can be sure the major compan ies are testing it,’ says one ex ecutive, “and if they find a Some suggestions about Social Security “At present, everyone is en- titled to Social Security benefits that girls’ who marry in their who has reached the age of 62 te ens^re far more likely to get and has paid Social Security tax- divorced than girls who wait un- es for a total of 3Vi years. The tu ^ twenties.” total will be raised next year to , 3% years and to 3% the year after. By 1971, a man will have to have paid the tax for five years to qualify for a pension. The man who retires at 62 gets only 80% of the amount he would get by retiring at 65. If a man doesn’t retire at 65, he’ll start getting Social Security when he reaches 72, even though he’s still working. There have been cases of corporation presidents earning more than $100,000 a year, who at the same time were receiving checks from Social Security. The reason: Social Security is not a handout for the indigent but a right, for which the man has paid taxes. A man of 72 still working while receiving Social Security bene fits, must pay Social Security taxes. The benefits are tax free. If a man shifts from one job The author describes a typical case which commenced with “going steady*’ when the girl was 14 years old. “Helen Mar shall picked her iliate when she was 14—an age at which even the most precocious girl has a lot of growing to do. This, I dis covered, is by no means unusual. Girls who marry at 17 or 18 often have chosen their husbands much eartyer. Sometimes the die is cast almost as soon as they have stopped"playing with dolls.” The-mothers of many teen-age girls are largely responsible for these early marriages. They take pride in their girls and want them to get along, so they push them. Ofen I have spoken at the class day exercises of junior high schools. I marvel at the way these 15-year-old girls are made up like women. I know they didn’t do that by them, selves. The McCall’s Article describes a typical pattern of a junior high school giri, 13 to 15, picking a senior high school student boy for her steady. She does this to give her a sense of security so she can have someone .to^ake her to the school affairs. Tbs sooner the girt starts the social affairs,'the sooner she .will start gong steady. As time goes on, of ten her escort exacts an increae- Waited, ing price for his services. Then one day it happens, and she be comes pregnant. Most of these couples feel as jf they have to marry to preserve their respec tability. They give little thought to what they may be doing to the unborn child. The typical bride is described as a very promising girl, beau tiful, married at 17. At 25 she has been divorced three years. Very little of her marriage she can recall as having given her any pleasure. She has a six-year- old son. Like most of these teen-age marriages, they had to be subsi dized by the parents. The hus band became so acustomed to this that he stopped work alto gether. He had acquired no sense of responsibility. “His idea of the perfect afternoon was to sit on the sofa with his shoes off, drinking beer, and watching a ball game on TV.” it’s high time Read this artcile for yourself, agers sat down and There iA another one similar to it reading about what Is in the January issue of the Read- to those teen-age marrtiMPS. er’s Digest, “If They Had Only then get together and so sc thing about it GOT A LEAK —GALL US!

Wor Do you ever pause to listen to the voice of God? We hear it every day, wherever we may be. In the whispering of tall trees . . . the music of rushing brooks ... the songs of the birds ... the gay laughter of happy children ... we hear the voice of the Great Creator. Through his in finite grace a bird is enabled to sere nade his mate, a tiny cricket chirps its faint refrain. God is the Bringer of all blessings to man and beast alike. Let us give thanks to Him who has so enriched our lives. Open church doors beckon all over our land. Let us seek the House of the Lord, and enter in to pay Him homage.
