Sunday School Lesson
The Story Of Deborah, Who Inspired Her
People To Win Their Freedom
TEXT: JUDGES 4:1-s, 1916

Ter. Barak wasn't a coward; but
he was a soldier, accustomed to
measure forces and chances so sue
cess. When Deborah told of her
strategy and urged him to 60
against Sisera, he refused to 60
urged him to go against sisera,
he refused to go unless Deborah
went with him. There was sly hui
NOR in Deborah's answer. She
would go, but all the honor of the
victory would go to a woman.
Barak was wise enough to see how
much greater was Deborah, even
if she was a woman. To his credit
be it said that he cared more for
the result than for the honor. -
So he led his forces to Mt. Tabor,
and the victory was complete. ST.
sera fled, to meet death by the
hand of Jael.
But Deborah was the real con-
oueror and the real hero. With
out her, Barak wouldn't have dared
attack.
Blessings on the man who has
a Deborah to go with him and
inspire him with faith and cour-
age when he has a job to do!
The war is revealing many De-
borahs today.

One of the strange contrasts Of
history is between the power and
influence that women have exercis-
played in the affairs of nations,
and the fact that at most times
and most places the position of
women has been infeio to that
of men, the inherently in some
instances amounting to actual de-
graduation.
In England, TO instance, the con-
tast is NAKED by the fait that

If he had not been so influenced
by prejudices in this matter he
might have remembered the great
ness of Deborah, and the part she
played in a time of danger and
crisis, and the way in which she
saved Israel.
Deborah stands as one of the
magnificent, heroic figures in his

OLDER WORKERS
COVERED BY TAX

Wages of employees who are IS
wears old or over should not be
overlooked when an employer
makes out his quarterly payroll
tax return, N. A. Avera, manager
of the Wilmington office Of the So
cial Security Board, said yester-
day.
sUnder the original Social Sc
curity Act, the wages of 65-year-
old worker did not count toward his
retirement benefits. but in 1899 the
law was changed and since that
time, every worker, regardless OF
age, must be given credit for all
wages received in a job covered
by the Social Security Act'', Avera
said.
This is particularly important
right now, because thousands OF
older men have gone back to work
since the war began, and when, or
il, they retire after the emergency
ends their retirement benefits will
depend upon the amount of earn
ings shown on their wage record,
the local manager stated.
The law requires every employer
to include in his quarterly tax re-
port the name. account number,
and wages paid to each employe,
both old and young, Avera said.
An employer who does not have
a Social Security account number
for each employee who worked fos
him during April May and June
should obtain such numbers in or
der that this information may ap-
pear on his payroll tax report for
the second quarter of 1914, he add
ed.
Social Security tax returns are
audited by the Bureau of Internal
Revenue, after which, the wage re-
ports go to the Social Security
board and there each item of wag-
es is credited to the proper &C.
count. Every insured worker has
an individual wage record and this
record will be used, later, as a
means of determining the amount
of benefits that may be payable to
him when he is old or to his de-
pendents in case he should die,
Avera said.
