TO ALL MEMBERS OF ST.
PAUL A.M.E. CHURCH,:


In the Miami Times on Sept. l
the following article appeared:
st. Paul AME Church 18th st.
and 4th court now has a new
stone front that adds much to its
appearance. There are two electric
crosses that are attractive and
are being favorabIS commented
upon. The Rev. Robt. A. Jackson
is the pastor.
In the Pittsburgh, Pa. Courier,
Florida edition, Sept. IS, paper a
picture of this beautifully de-
signed new church Front ap-
peared with an article below:
NEW MIAMI CHURCH FRONT
- Spanked by its energetic pas
tor, the Rev. R. A. Jackson, a
staff of fine officers and many
cooperating members who helped
the church live up TO its motto:
go Forward" st. Paul of Miami
is pushing its program which in
cludes beautifully designed new
church front completed recently
at a cost of $4,000.
The foregoing two articles are
correct as far as the beautifully
designed new church front is con-
cerned and the picture for itself
would speak for it, the given cost
is not $4,000. The architect and
builder of this beautifully de-
signed new church front is none
other than George Gerung. He was
helpful in having said plans and
building permit approved. He also
put his first own money in, in or
der to get the job started. 1t was
a difficult and dangerous job, be-
cause it has only z feet founda-
ton and the highest tower rises
35 feet unto heaven. There are
some 5000 feet of reinforcing steel
and some 20 cubic yards of ready
mixed concrete in this new front
in order to pass the Miami Build
ing Code and its inspections.
The church itself became COM
pletely destroyed in the 1926 hur-
ricane, but this new front will
defy any hurricane or fire and
will be a landmark or symbol for
the next 100 years or more to
come. Church members If you like
this beautifully designed new
front, probably you could travel
through the whole state of Flori-
da and also some other states in
order to find one just like it, then
you should consider the builder.
The architect and builder who
made the plans for 1t and laid
every stone of this new front some
35 feet high, did all the carpenter
work. made the 3 bag concrete
arches and 3. interior arches for
the 8 double doors, put in 2 palo-
sizes and 2 electric glass brick
crosses which are being favorably
commented upon. There is a re-
corded labor lien of Sl,23l.79
against your church. st. Paul has
a membership of about 1000.
Mr.. Gerung remodeled Mt. Cal
vary Baptist church, 1913 NV 5th
court, and added new addition
10 il and also remodeled the resi-
dence of Rev. E. M. Thomas, 1922
NV 5th court. Right across the
street, he remodeled the ST.
Mary's Methodist Church and put
in q new balcony. Rev. Z. A. Cul-
mer is the pastor. Hats off TO Rev.
Thomas and Rev. Gunner. Every
penny has been for the work that
was done. Mr.. Gerung also has

Get Fertilizers
Early, Agronomis+
Advises Farmers

Reduced supplies and large de-
mand make early ordering Of fer
tilizer even more important than
usual, says Earl Jones, extension
agronomist at Ohio State Univer-
sity.
It's always a good idea to have
the tools on hand before they are
needed. Fertilizers are important
tools in crop production, the
agronomist points out
This same advice, order early"
applies to nitrogen fertilizers.
There is big demand for fer
tilizers, the agronomist says, and
farmers who wait too long could
be disappointed
Supplies of superphosphate will
be less than normal because of
decreased supplies of sulphur.
Jone points out that sulphur is
used in superphosphate produc-
tion.
Usual mixed fertilizers are ex-
pected to be in normal supply
during the coming spring. High
analysis grades will be in short
supply because of a shortage of
45%o superphosphate.

ployed farmer, doctor, lawyer, or

other professions will not count
toward social security benefits.)
(2) Farm Work-After YOU

$40, $64 and $45 payments, $68.50.
Under the new law the amount
of the monthly payment to a re-
tired person is 500 of the first
$100 of his average monthly wage,
plus 1870 of the next $3.50. The
number of years of work will not
affect the amount of the monthly
payment when the new formula is
used. This new formula will not
be used unless the worker is in
sured on the basis Of wages or
self-employment income after
1850; when the qualifying wages
were paid before 1851, the for
mula in the old law will be used,
and the amount of payments will
be increased by the table in the
law.
Also under the new law it is
easier to become eligible for pay
ments.. Only a year and a half of
work under social security will be
necessary when worker reaches
65 or dies before the end of 1854
(wages of $50 or more are neces-
Sary in each of six different cal
endar quarters.)
Covered work before the effect
i've date of the new law, as we'll
as after that date, counts toward
meeting the requirement.
After 1854 worker at 65, Cor
his family, in case of his death at
any age) may be eligible for
benefits if he worked at least a
year and half and also as long
as (a) half the time after 1850,
or (b) half the time after he be-
came 81, or (c) ten years in all
in jobs or self-employment COW
cred by the law.
A worker who meets these re-
quirements is fully insured"
Benefits While Earning
Benefits may be accepted when
your earnings are as much as $50
a month. Beginning last Septem-
Der /, if you were entitled to So
cial security payments, you could
accept your benefit check even
if you earned as much as $50 a
month in work covered by the
law Gnstead of $14.99, as before
If you were rs or more you
could accept the payments regard
less of the amount of your earn
ings.
Today you should notify your
social security office if your net
earnings from self employment
covered by the law are more thar
$500 a year.
