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.

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

affairs,'the sooner she .will start

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

sense of responsibility. “His

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. Here through prayer
and humility, let us re-dedicate ourselves
to His service and glorification.
