"I REMEMBER' BY THS OLD TIMERS From H. ▼. CUrk, Hot Springs, Montano: I remember over fifty years ago at Plew, Missouri, when folks in our neighborhood, includ ing ourselves didn't bother to gath er eggs except for family use. The stores would pay two and one-half cents per dozen and that would have to be taken in trade. The kids over the countryside would take eggs to the store and accept candy in trade. Most of the people didn’t let many hens set in the chicken house, as enough hid their nests outside to keep the increase need ed for the size flock they wanted to keep. • • • From George Tucker, Tallulah, Louisiana: I remember years ago, as a little boy in Faunsdale, Ala bama, there were no iron-beam plows. All were wood except the point which was hand-made of steel. My twin brother would “drive” and I would hold the plow. * * * From Mrs. Sybil Pendery, Cin cinnati, Ohio: I remember my childhood on a Mississippi farm when mother took two ears of com and made two lovely dolls for twin sister and me. She left the bright colored com silk on the cob for the hair. We were so de lighted we ran down to the road and waited for the mailman to drive up in his horse and buggy so we could show the dolls to him. I also remember our large family sitting around an open fireplace, harmonizing in song. Social Security 0 ^ ‘ QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS Do you know your rights under the Social Security program?

And a further impression is 61 the way these same contrasts be tween good and bad men, be tween evil and good in the life of the people, are found in every nation today. It is this that makes the Old Testament so vital a document. There one sees the whole process of moral uplift and decay, of vision and call to high estate, with frustration, defeat, and ruin through disobedience to the high commands of righteousness and truth. The deepest and most funda mental evil in • relation to the highest character and ideals in those times was the sin of setting individual interest against the rights and welfare of all. And today, there is not a sin gle nation in which the forces of evil, through selfishness, crime and disregard of all moral stand ards. is not at work. There are plenty of good peo ple. thank God! But a tragic fact is the apathy of the good when action is needed to fight evil. Nowhere is the history of a people in success and failure, defeat and revival, so clearly set down as in the Old Testament. It is for this reason that it brings to modern peoples a warning, adapting a New Testa ment expression: “Wherefore let the nation that thinketh it stand- eth take heed lest it fall.” This warning is especially ap- # propriate for those who refuse to recognize how great are the evils that threaten our demo cratic ideals PACES TRIAL . . .
