of the Jersey breed for cows II
years old and over on Register
of Merit test.
The cow. Marks Farm Ophelia,

The fact that this cow achieved
a breed title record at an age

Tribute Paid
Mrs. Martha Gore

On Monday night June 18th the
death angel visited our old home
and took from US our darling
Mother, Martha B. Gore, whom
we loved and cherished so much.
The old home is so lonely
Since Mother passed away,
But now she is sweetly resting
In a land of cloudless day.
It was so hard to part with her
That last sad hour l saw her
face;
And as I stood by weeping
No one could fill her place.
Dear Mothers body lies at rest
Cold in the grave it is sleeping
Far away from home and me
Where the wind through the
trees is sweeping.
How sweetly she was laid away
With true and earnest prayers,
And oh! 1 hope to meet ner
In that land so bright and fair.
No name on earth is sWeeter
No Mother to brighten our nome,
For we are left a-Weeplng,
Our hearts are sad and lone.
Her precious spirit rests with
God,
Her sufferings all have ceased
From all earth's cares and sor-
rows
Her spirit is released.
Sleep on, dear Mother, and take
thy rest.
God called you home - He
thought it best.
Written by her children.

for the new canes to develop as
well as to get rid of diseased
plant materials.
In Eastern North Carolina p
slightly different procedure is
used for dewberries. AS soon as
the crop is harvested, all canes
both old and young, are removed
at the ground. Then the land is
cultivated and top-dressing of
nitrate of soda is given the
plants. In few days new shoots
will appear and make sufficient
growth during the rest of the
season to produce a good cron
the next year. This new growth
is allowed to run along the
ground and is not tied up to
stakes until next spring.
This practice. as outlined, gives
a fair control OF anthracnose di.
sease Of dewberries. The plant
growth that is cut off at the
ground should be DESTROYED bv
burning. In the mountain areas
the season is not always long
enough to permit the removal OF
new canes. In that case only the
old canes are removed.

general health. This is evidenced
by the results of extensive research
conducted by leading nutritionists.
The value of meat in the diet for
those persons so years of age and
older is shown by a study conduct
ed by DR.. Pauline Beery Mack of
the Ellen Richards Institute of
Pennsylvania State College. Two
groups of men and women, so and
over, participated in the study.
Each week one group had ten serv-
ings of meat. Two servings of meat
per week were provided the other
group.
Physicians conducting examina-
tions during this study reported
that the group receiving 10 serv-
ings of meat as compared with
those receiving two servings of
meat had all around better health,
including better blod tests, and bet
ter nerve conditions along with
greater resistance to disease and
infection. Results obtained by in
creasing meat in the diets of older
persons are credited to the high
quality protein, minerals and vita
minis meat contains.

prepared by the following method.
The tongue is covered with water.
Fresh tongue is cooked in water
that has been salted, allowing 1
teaspoon of salt for each quart of
water. The utensil is covered
closely and the tongue allowed to
simmer slowly until tender. This
takes from three to four hours.
Following cooking. the skin is

OLD-AGE SOCIAL
SECURITY PLAN
How to Secure Information
Relating to Federal 0ld-Age
and Survivors, Insurance
QUESTIONS ANSWERED

Questions relating to Federal
Old-Age and Survivors Insurance
will be answered in this paper or
by mail. Address all queries to So
cial Security Administration, Gus
tom House, 9th and King Streets,
Wilmington.
Q. What changes were made in
the kinds of work that count to-
ward Federal Old-Age and Surviv-
ors Insurance?
A. Most jobs in private industry
and commerce have counted to-
ward social security payments
since january 1, 1887. Many of the
kinds of work that formerly were
not under the social security law
were brought under it by the 1850
amendments, effective January 1,
1851.
Q. What kinds of work are new
ly covered by social security?
A. Among the kinds of work
which will count toward social Sc
curity protection beginning Jan. l,
1851, are non-farm self-employ-
ment, regular farm work, and
household work in private homes.
Under certain conditions, employ
'ees of religious, charitable, educa-
tional and other non-profit organ
izations, and the employees of
state and local governments may
come under the law beginning
January 1, 1851.
@. What kinds of work do not
count toward social security pay
Smyrna times., 1951-02-15

ments?
A. The owner or operator Of a
farm does not get credit toward
old-age and survivors insurance
payments from his farm earnings.
Income gained from self-employ-
ment as a physician, lawyer. dent
ist, professional engineer and ceT-
tain other professions, is not count
ed toward social security benefits.
Note: In all of the above cases it
is self-employment that does not
count toward social security. The
salary of a person employed as a
lawyer. doctor, etc., will count to-
ward old-age and survivors insur-
ance protection.
The wages paid TO a child under
21 by his father or mother, to a
husband by his wife, to a wife by
her husband, or to a parent by his
son or daughter, do not count to-
ward social security, nor do the
wages paid to a minister or men,
Der of a religious order for per-
forming the duties required by
their religious orders.
Some kinds of employment by
the Federal government have been
brought under the law, but FEEDER
al jobs covered by other retirement
systems are excluded.
Employment by State and local
governments and by certain nom
profit organizations is not covered
by the law, but some of these jobs
may be brought under the law at
the option of the employing organ
ization. In the case of the nom
profit organizations, the agreement
of two-thirds of the employees is
also necessary.

WAYS TO HELP
MENTALLY ILL
Answers Given By Volunteer
Service Committee for
Mental Hygiene
SMYRNIANS CAN HELP

How can 1 help the mentally ill
of Delaware?
There are many ways that nom
professionals of the Smyrna area
can help, is the answer given by
the Volunteer Service Committee
of the Delaware State Society for
Mental Hygiene.
How a volunteer helps depends
on his or her skills, talents, and
abilities. At Delaware State Hos
pital at Farnhurst, volunteers help
i'm such activities as directing tai
ent shows, giving music lessons,
and teaching crafts. They also take
: patients who are able to go on
shopping and sightseeing trips. Or,
another kind of volunteer renders
a service by donating such items
as musical instruments, books, a
chess set Complete, please), pin
ochle cards and other adult games
and even neckties.
Smyrna people can help-both in
the recovery of patients and in the
understanding of mental illness.
Residents from Kent County who
were admitted to Farnhurst during
the past year numbered 33. This is
TO per cent of the total admissions
for the year, while the county re-
presents IL per cent of the states
population. This figure does not in
Guide the total hospital population
from Kent, however, for there are
many others from the county who
would benefit from volunteer ser
vices.
At the Governor Bacon Health
Center, 66 people from Kent Coun-
ty wene admitted during 1949-50.
This is 9.3 per cent of the years
total. Volunteers are also proving
helpful at this treatment center.
Draperies have been made and
donated by friends, but pictures
for the walls-both for children
and adults would be helpful too.
Other supply needs range from
finger paints all the way up to tele-
vision sets.
Giving small tea parties, supply
ing craft materials, putting on a
fun-scale evenings entertainment,
donating phonograph records, CIV
ing a sewing machine, contributing
toys, providing an orchestra and
sponsoring a dance-these are 9th
er suggested volunteer activities.
In addition to the Kent admis-
sions to Farnhurst and the Health
Center, there were 139 Mental Hy-
giene Clinic cases from the county
during the past year. This repre-
sents IA per cent of the total cases
treated, while Kent only represents
IL per cent of the population in the
state.
How do volunteer activities help
mental patients?
Sometimes it is just friendly as
sociation, or-in the case of arts
and crafts or social events-it
gives the patient medium for ex-
preston, or perhaps the volunteers
role is just to provide wholesome
environment. Because it is impossi-
BILE to supply all the patients needs
with paid workers alone, volunteers

in the cooking liquid. The tongue
should be thoroughly covered, then
stored in the coolest part of the

which to reheat tongue slices are
cherry, raisin and orange. Wilted
spinach leaves may be wrapped
within tongue slices and simmered
in a horse-radish sauce for another
