GLIM p ES
T HI E P A S T
By CAROLYN LLOYD

In this weather it is doubtful
that anyone is interested in the
past; suspect that it is all most
people can do to get through the
day without having heat
stroke. l am reminded of a story
told by Bennett Cert in one Of
his anthologieS of humour of an
old Negro man who stood SILVER
ing on a corner in Natchez, Mis-
sissippi, during an unusually
cold spell in December. A
passer-by heard him murmur,
ooh wind, where was you last
August" Perhaps we will feel
the same way in December, but
it is hard to believe it now.
AS I sit at my typewriter, 1
hear the chant of a tobacco auc-
tioneer coming over the radio in
a car parked outside the office.
Memory goes back to day
about this hot when l sat in a
warehouse in Hazlehurst, Geor-
gia, copying bills as they were
brought off the warehouse floor.
The sun beat down on the tin
roof, the pungent smell of to-
bacco filled the air, and a fly
crawled up and down my arm as
l copied like mad to get the bills
ready for the buyers. To add to
my discomfort, a big, raw
boned girl in her teens sat on
pile of tobacco and peered over
my shoulder in fascination as l
worked. Just as I was beginning
to feel pretty irritable, she let
out a great sigh and said, my
it's easy to make a living if
you've got eddication, isn't it?"
Suddenly l was ashamed of my
unspoken complaints; I could see
that girl working in the hot sun
to get her tobacco ready for mar
ket and the work I was doing did
seem very easy, indeed. Bills or
no bills, l put down my pencil
for moment and talked to her
and learned this trip to the mar

them or not. The clerks in the
stores failed to appreciate the
joke when one of the tobacco
nists would ask for a pack of
cigarettes and remark, land
leave off the grits." l am remind
ed, too, of the day when the news
came, prematurely, incidentally,
that World War II was ended at
last. Everything in town closed
to celebrate, including the cafe,
and there we were with no way
to get a meal. Patriotism can
take strange forms sometimes,
and it seemed doubly strange in
a town that depended upon the
tobacco market for its prosperity.
Well, l seem to have wandered
long way from the weather,
but heat does strange things to
the brain and who can be clever
in August. By the time this ap-
pears in the paper, school will
have started and I shall be
watching the members of my
history class go to sleep in the
afternoon heat, for, l repeat, in
this weather no one cares about
the past or the future-it is suf-
ficient to survive through today.

undertaken the responsibility of
purchasing sOundprOOf, movable
plastic curtains to divide the Junior
Worship Room into three class

An overall increase in average
church school attendance of 66 over

many changes in meeting rooms.
Some classes have been assembling
on the second floor for opening
exercises, then meeting in the base
ment for their classroom work.
With the addition of the movable
curtains, much time would be saved
in unnecessary travel. A bake and
food sale will be held in the Church
Social Hall on Saturday, March

A very large and successful bake

Frear FaUOrS Cut
In Excise Taxes
States Junior SOlOn Willing
For Reasonable
Reduction

United States Senator j. Allen
Frear said today that he favors a
reasonable reduction in Federal
Excise Taxes.
In his weekly statement, the
Senator, who is a member Of the
important Senate Finance Commit
tee, expressed the opinion that a
reduction in Excise Taxes will
benefit business by stimulating the
purchase of items now subject to
Excise levies.
Mr.. Frear said that a number
Of representative business people
from Delaware have discussed the
Excise Tax problem with him in
the past few weeks.
In favOring Excise Tax cuts,
Senator Frear said ne was not un-
aware "Of the spectre of deficit
financing and of our unbalanced
Federal Budget; nor is there any
desire on my part to deprive the
Treasury of needed revenue to
meet the cost Of Government" he
continued.
However. the internal economy
of the United States must, under
no circumstances be allowed to
slow down. the Senator declared.
Il feel there is greater wisdom in
granting tax concessions so as to
place more money in circulation,
than in resorting to possible Fed
eral pump priming, which might
occur if unemployment becomes
too serious. If it is necessary to
reduce other appropriations-sueh
as those for foreign aid-in order

Today Than In

Thousands Of workers in Della

security protection for years, but,
surprisingly, a large number Of
them still think of the social Sc
curity program as it was when
they we're first covered back in
1887 and 1888, according to Myron
Milbouer, manager of the Whining
ton Social Security Office.
Some Of these people are sur
prised to learn that benefits are
payable to survivors in death
cases., the manager said. "and
many others think of the program
as it operated prior to the 1850
amendments. They fail to realize
that ever since 1850 benefits have
substantially increased, eligibility
requirements have been greatly
modified, and new types of bene-
fits are provided"
