she is Is years young. She
neither looks nor acts like a
lady of three score and some.
She is the mother of several
children, has been married
twice, having lost her first
husband when she was very
young. She was married to
her second husband for al
most forty years. She has a
well equipped kitchen, and
still does her own cooking,
with a little help from inter-
ested friends, who have
caught the vision from her
and are willing to do their
bit for humanity. 1t is in
teresting to see the people
OF this home, as they grace
their table and eat a well
balanced meal, of the very
best grade of food, attrac-
lively served. There is al
ways a center-piece Of flow
ers or fruit and dessert. One
can but see the deep inter-
est, which is manifested in
the everyday existence of
these aged and dependent
people. One can but admire
the spirit that prompts it
and marvel at the courage
Gus fortitude of the years !;
but when one has met Mrs.
Carter, and talked with her,
things become clearer
as she explains it all by say
ing, "He has promised to
care for even the birds, and
/ know that He will care for
us. We only need to trust
Him."

of years, do not need food.
They get an abundance of
that; but they do need little
gifts of thoughtfuness and
love. Such trivial things as
a bar of sweet soap, rubbing
alcohol, wash cloths, tissues,
tooth paste or powder, or the
singing of a sweet hymn,
the reading of a beautiful
thought, biblical or other
wise, or even a cheerful
word-these things, which
would mean so little to us,
would mean so much to
them.
The; Convalescent Home
has been a refuge for over
500 people during it's years
of operation, and inmates
have come from all parts of
the country. At this writ
ing, there are some from as
far south as Georgia and as
far north as Baltimore. Mrs.
Betty Terry, deceased, holds
the record as the Oldest
member. She lived at the
Home for over three years
and died at the age of 115
years old. Mrs. Banks, also
deceased, lived there for
over two years and died at
the age of 1O3. Until 1947,
this Home was the only one
of it's kind in Southwest Vir-
ginia.
The lady who is respon-
sible for this Haven for the
Aged, is Mrs. Clara B. Car
ter. Generally, one is spoken
of as so many years old, but
seeing Mrs. Carter, one is
readily tempted to say that

Some Real Comfort And

A DIME-AND A DREAM
(By Florence Fields-wood)

A DIME-AND A DREAM
(By Florence Fields-wood)
Continued from last week
T h e Convalescent Home
has grown much since its
venture of faith. Practically
all of the rooms are comfort
ably arranged with beds
dressers and closet space
Most of the rooms have two
occupants to the room. There
are those who are bedridden,
and have been so for several
years, but who are well pre-
served. There are those who
are in wheel chairs. There
is a woman there, because
she needs care, which her
husband is unable to give
her and work too. There is
a man there, who has no
place to go, and no money
with which to pay. There
is a little lady there who is
being kept there by the
white people whom she has
served for many years.
There is a mother who is
living there because all of
the children must work, and
there is no one to care for
her at home. There's a story
behind almost every occu-
pant but in spite of the
story, they seem generally,
rather happy and yet, there
is a need.
These old ones could use
an abundance of personal in
terest. AS one grows older,
ones circle of friends gets
smaller and the old are often
found, lonely. These people,
who have lived to a ripeness

Reds Levy Tax
10 Discourage
Church Weddings

BERLIN -(NC)- High taxes
on the administration of the sacra.
ments - including matrimony ,--
is one of the numerous means the
Polish Reds are using to discour-
age church weddings.
In addition to imposing financial
sacrifices on those who want to be
married in church, the tax records
also aid police in keeping track of
those who are loyal to their relig-
ion.
In spite Of this and other
methods used to dissuade the Pol
ish people from being married in
church, church weddings continue.
Another method used by com
munists is the ridiculing of church
weddings in the press and on the
radio. Radio Warsaw recently
broadcast a. series of programs
depicting church weddings as q
superstitious and useless cere'
mony, forced on young people by
backward and ignorant parents.

Tito Scored For Poor
Relations With Church

VATICAN CITY-Radio, Nc
The abnormal state of relations
between the Church and state in
Yugoslavia is entirely the respon-
sibility of the Yugoslav regime.
This pointed reminder was made
here by OSservdtore Romano, Vati-
can City daily, as it commented
on the reported statement of high
Yugoslav official that the govern
ment's relations we're normal
with all Churches except the Cath
olic Church.
Dobrivoje Radosaljevic, presi-
dent of the central commission for
religious affairs, repeatedly charg-
ed that the Catholic Church 're-
fuses for political reasons to nor
malize its relations with the state. /"
The YUgosIav officials defi-
snee of fhe truth, "osservafore"
said, only mirrors the statement
in May 1883 Of Viee-Presidenf
AIe<sandar Rsnkovie, then minis
ter OF the interior. Rsnkovic read
from Vatican letter TO prove fhe
Holy Sees alleged obssinsfe re-
fUssI TO seek q settlement Of re-
Ilsions conditions In YUgosIsvis.
OsseTvdtoTe noted that a key
passage-ignored by Rankovic-in
the same letter emphasized that
''the Holy See has repeatedly de.
clared that it does not want to re-
main apart in any way from nego.
tiations to stabilize a 'modus viv.
endi' between the Catholic Church
and the Yugoslav republic, provid-
ed that the competent authorities
demonstrate by deeds that they
wish to respect the fundamental
rights of the Church"

he had been appearing IS eovn-
sci on behalf OF two OF his seers-
tariss who had been named rs al
legged sources of communist In
formation.
Meanwhile, DR.. Evatt, who ap-
peared to many, including his own
supporters, to be assisting COM
munist aims by destructive activi-
ties against the Commission, was
coming under heavy fire within
the Labor Party and reports began
to appear of moves against his
leadership.
Principal ground of discomfort
was that DR.. Evatt's consistent pol
icy over the years in relation to
communism had been anything but
reassuring. 1t was recalled that as
Federal Attorney General he had
been credited with lifting the ban
against the communist Party dur
ing the war, that he had led the
opposition to legislation introduc-
ed by Prime Minister r. G.. Menzies
to outlaw communism, and that he
had headed the campaign against
a referendum designed to increase
the Federal governments consti-
tutional powers to deal with COM
munism.

msnf, over and above the aim
of combating communist inflU.
enees and working for the ex.
elusion by legitimate means Of
communists from official posts
in trades unions.
Politically, the principal outcome
is that a serious rift amounting tc
a definite "split" has developed ir
the Australian Labor Party and its
group of parliamentary representa-
tives at Canberra. Catholics are
apprehensive of this development
because its main consequence is
likely to be a sharp accentuation oi
the '1eftist" element in the Party
-traditionally the workers party
in Australia, receiving strong Cath
olic electoral support--and a di
minished anxiety in the Party in
relation to communism.
DR.. Evsff launched this attack
shortly after his prestige had
dropped sharply following his
exclusion from the Pssrov Com.
mission into Espionage, st which

ian LABOR members OF the Federal
parliament, who are known to be
Catholics and are recognized as
amongst the most vocal and active
anti-communists in Australia.
Subsequent public statements by
DR.. Evatt were interpreted as in
sinuating that the official Catholic
Acation group in Australia was the
activating influence behind the La
Dor parliamentarians he attacked
and that Catholic Action was func-
tioning in Australia as a pressure
group in the political and induStri-
al labor movements.
The controversy has principally
concerned the State of Victoria and
its capital city of Melbourne,
where the headquarters of the Ma
tional Secretariat of Catholic Ac-
ton is situated. However, while
DR.. Evatt has antagonized the gen.
eral body of Catholic citizens and
masses of tolerant none Catholics.
especially those sensitive to the
communist danger, he has received
limited support from sections of
the labor movement.
Most important, however Is
the fact that loose end unseien.

and IT'S officials have become fire.

CEAP Rejects
Syllabus On
Religion Idea

MANILA - NC) 49, An
"agreed syllabus" for the
teaching of religion in public
schools which will involve doc
trinal compromise, syncretism,
or naturaism will not be &C.
ceptable here.
This was the conclusion ar
rived at by the Catholic Educa-
tional Association of the Phil
ippines at its general assembly
here. The reference was to a pro-
posed syllabus on religion that
would be acceptable to all denom-
nations"
The main objections raised
against such syllabus at the
CEAP assembly were:
Cd There Is . required mini
mum of preespts for Catholics
which embraces both the Com.
nandments Of God and of the
Church. Evidently, there can be
no agreement between Catholics
and non-cstholies on the pre-
eepts Of fhs Church. Even with
regard TO ths Commandments of
God, some religious denomina.
tlons do not agree with the Cath
ollie Church or oil of them.
(2) There would be danger of
falling into kind of naturalism.
CD The agreed syllabus" used
in public schools of England has
proved not only unsatisfactory but
unacceptable as well.
The idea of such a syllabus for
Philippine public schools was put
forward by DR.. Pedro Orata, United
Nations Educational, Scientific and
Cultural Organization official in
Paris, at a UNESCO seminar on
education here some time ago.
