MIRACLES
Happened
AT FATIMA!

lat FATIMA!
You may not a gree
with the Catholic belief
in miracles.
Perhaps you don't be-
lieve in miracles at all :.
and especially not in mir
acles attributed to the
prayer of the Blessed Vir-
gin.
But if God does look
with special favor upon
Mary and does won
drous things at her re-
quest is it not of vast
Importance to you to find
out?
What, for example, did
Gods angel mean when
he said:
Hail, full of grace, the
Lord is with thee; blessed
art thou amongst wom-
en- ~?
Was she to be "full of
grace" only temporarily
and blessed amongst
women" only during her
life on earth?
This is not reasonable
in view of Mary's unique
role as the earthly mother
of the Son of God. Nor
can we discard and forget
Mary if we believe Holy
Scripture, for there we
find Mary's words duke
1:48); &c. henceforth
all generations shall call
me blessed" Where, eX-
cepting among Catholics,
does anyone honor the
Blessed Virgin as did God
Himself?
"But," you may insist,
"show me a miracle! And
prove that Mary had any
thing to do with it."
We might, of course,
recall that Christ'S moth
er appeared to Bernadette
at Lourdes in France,
and that scientifically
authenticated cures have
been occurring there ever
since. Or we might cite
similar apparitions to the
three children at Fatima,
Portugal, and the subse-
quent awesome spectacle
of the sun spinning and
dancing on it's axis and
then seeming to plunge
toward the earth ;. a
spectacle witnessed by
10000 persons. And we
could m e ntion Mary's
prophecies con cernin G
the conditions under
which Russia should be
converted.
But Catholics don't re-
quire earth-shaking SUI
pernatural dem on S tr a.
tons to attest Mary's
love, nor to prove her in
fluence at the throne of
God. It's the little mir
acles" that take place in
their daily lives when, in
faith and trust, they
pray: Hail, Mary, full of
grace, the Lord is with
thee :"
Catholics pray for one
another. They also ask
the saints in Heaven to
Join them in prayer. 81
believe" says the Apos-
ties creed, Gin the COM
munion of saints" And
Mary is in Catholic hearts
the greatest of the saints.
So we ask her to intercede
for us with God and
God has often performed
miracles in answer to her
prayer.

Fatima, will be sent in a

Shown To Times Staff

What probably is Lincoln coun-
tvs longest sweet potato was
shown The Times staff yesterday
1t was a 'tater, measuring "a
inches long, Puerto Rica variety,
that was uncovered by Hubert Ell
lis of Lincolnton, Route 4, as he
was plowing up his 1-acre sweet
potato crop this week. Mr.. Ellis
10-year old son made the discov-
cry, eXclaiming. Daddy. look what
I have"
The Times staff members rea-
soned they had seen some big
'taters, but none las long" as the
Ellis production. The potato was
brought to The Times office by
one of Mr.. Ellis's sons. The potato
was so long that the youth had to
hold it by his side, in the manner
that he might be carrying club
or baseball bat. He said his father
had gotten a fine yield from the
one-acre crop.

QUESTION:: Should I irrigate
after harvest?
ANSWER: Experts say yes; that
irrigating after harvest fills the
soil reservoir for crops next sea-

lier, produces larger yield. helps
winter cover, greatly improves the
soil, uses fall labor, and may re-
duce the size of irrigation system

Social Security
Increases Rolls

Persons under rs can have as
much as S1725 net income annual
ly, actively conduct their trade or
business and accept one or more
months social security checks tax
able year, Wayne w. Putnam,
Manager of the Toledo Social Sec
urity Office, said today.
The number of months for which
benefits are not payable depends
upon the amount of the benefic-
iary's net earnings from self-em-
ployment during the taxable year
and the number of months he was
active in his trade or business.
Social Security payments may be
made to the fully retired person
the entire year even though he
remains the inactive owner or part
ner of the trade or business, Mr..
Putnam added.
Active self-employment which
nets a beneficiary $500 or less in
a year will not affect his payments
at all. For each additional SIS or
