Public spirit is the use
of a man by himself for the COM
mon good wrote Clifford Pin
chot some 45 years ago in his
book, "The Fight for Conserva-
ton"
Although Pinchot was himself
something of collectivist, he
was yet enough of conserva-
tive to give what I consider to
be an excellent definition of
public spirit: "the use of a man
by himself for the common
good"
Our friends, the Socialists, of
course, disagree. They apparently
doubt that a man, if left to him
self, will use himself for the
common good. AS they see it,
public spirit is the use of man
by the government for the COM
mon good. But that is slavery.
1t is true, of course, that some
men, if left to themselves, will
contribute only to the common
detriment. And it is the prime
purpose of government to re-
strain the actions of such men.
But government should leave
other men free to develop and
exercise their public spirit-their
use of themselves by themselves
for the common good. 1t was
such public spirit that made
America a great nation. If
America is to continue great,
this spirit must not be fettered
and chained by a collectivistic
government.

Dear Sir:
l would like to ask Albert F.
Randolph some questions con-
corning his Bible Question and
Answer" in the July % issue.
Where did you get your auth
ority to call the members of So
called secret societies and
orders" infidels and unbelievers?
Within the past two years l
have had occasion to spend quite
some time studying the laws, by
laws and entire Ritualistic work
of one of these and feel that
know quite bit about it.
In considering the answer
you gave l am sure you have

been sadly misinformed as to
what, at least part of these or
CARNATIONS, are based on and
stand for.
Also when you call more than
$4,000 citizens of the state of
Ohio, members of this one organ
ization, (and there are members
all over the world) infidels and
unbelievers you are making
quite a big statement.
Does your Bible say anything
about judging and being judged?
If you care to discuss this fur
ther, you can obtain my name
and address at the Journal
office.
You might like to know that a
number of people will be inter
ested in your answers.

The GAINESVILLE social security
district office will participate in
the nationwide observance of the
twentieth anniversary of the en-
actment of the original social
security law, Robert B. Youmans,
district manager, announced
today.
The Social Security Act be-
came law on August IA, 1885.
"At that time only about one
worker in 10 was covered by any
retirement system, and only
about one worker in 20 by a
public retirement program" Mr..
Youmans said. AS of Janpary of
this year, 1874 persons were
receiving total of $737 1888
monthly in the area serviced by
the GAINESVILLE office.
Pointing out that 8 out of 10
people who work for a living
can now look forward to retire
ment benefits under the old-age
and survivors insurance program,
Mr.. Youmans said that the
original law provided only old
age protection. 1t applied to some
80 million workers in commerce
and industry. The 1899 amend
ments added payments for de-
pendents of retired workers and
for the survivors of workers who
died.
It was not until 1851 that COW
erage was extended to the self
employed, and to certain en-
ployees of non-profit organiza-
tions regularly employed dom
estic and farm workers, and
some employees of Federal, state
and local governments. Ten mil
lion more workers were brought
under the program through the
1854 amendments which extend
ed coverage to self-employed
farmers, most farm employees
and workers in private house
holds, and certain Self-employed
professionals. Protection was also
made available, under special
agreements, to more state and
local government employees, and
to ministers of religious orders.
About 81 million persons will
build this protection for them
selves and their families during
1855" MI. Youmans declared.
He pointed out that the aver
age old-age benefit payment has
increased from $22.60 monthly
in 1850 to $50 monthly at the
end of 1854 Payments are still
higher for retired workers who
have more recently come on the
rolls. This average old-age pay
ment is now $50, and the average
monthly payment to a young
widow with two minor children
is $185.
AS an illustration of the pro-
gress of the program during the
| twenty years of its existence, Mr..
Youmans said that many people
who had themselves received
benefits as children now have
families Of their own and are
building old-age and survivors
insurance protection through en-
ployment or self-employment
now covered by the law.
Looking to the future, Mr..
Youmans said that by 1875, when
there will be 20 million Ameri-
cans age 65 or over, 4 out of 5
of them will be eligible for bene-
fit payments as retired workers,
aged wives, dependent husbands,
widows or dependent WidoWerS
or aged parents. At that time,
nearly 80 million people will be
in work covered by the law, and
SO million people will be insur-
ed, Mr.. Youmans predicted.
Youmans states that a free
pamphlet, "Twenty Years of
Social Security" can be obtain
ed upon request from the Social
Security office.

County Farmers Urged
To Select ellis Early

Select next years breeding
gifts when the first hogs go to
market, advises Herb Barnes,
Ohio State University extension
swine specialist.
Gilts kept for breeding should
be the fastest growing and quick
est maturing pigs of the litter
and should be fed for growth
rather than finish. Early selec-
ton separates gifts from the mar
ket hogs and farmers can feed
gifts a growing ration to develop
better breeders. Size and meat
type play a big part in gilt sell
ection. Barnes reminds farmers
to select for good udders, sound
feet and good legs, also.
After separation, he recon-
mends 12 to "a pounds of sup
plement per day, plenty of good
forage and a limit of pounds
of corn per day for each gilt.

Share Your Wisdom
BY DIR. THOMAS r GAINES

NEW YORK, (GlcbaD. TO live
wisely means life of high power.
The key to such a worthy existence
lies in the mind. BY the mind we
are freed or enslaved. If the weeds
of error fill our mental garden, we
can see but weeds and thistles. If
our mental world is filled with the
flowers of misunderstanding, our
life is decreed to be sane, health
filled and beautiful. If all is not
well, if sickness grips us, let us
cast out this disturbing mental
weed of error and ignorance and
plant instead the seeds of true wis
dom. God offers health and
strength to all men without money
and without price. Simply let us
turn tc God and seek to live as he
would have us live, and no longer
will we be prey to suffering or
physical torment.

mutual friend at a dance three
years ago. He was unattached and
extremely nice. We had a grand
time since l was unescorted. l felt
the thing ended there, but Larry
kept calling, and we began to see
each other often. He talked freely
and eagerly of marriage and the
future. Mutual friends gave him a
big buildup and insisted that he
was the "catch" of the year.
Then, one day, through slip,
the same friend who introduced
us told me Larry was married.
pressed her, but got nothing more,
and now she avoids me- I con-
fronted him and got a long story.
It boilS down to the fact that he
and his wife are separated and he
cares for the child. After I found
out he was married, he began talk
ing about how nice it is not to be
tied down, and how much fun we
could have this way. I bawled him
out, but it is hard to avoid him at
social functions. Then, too, friends
are always pairing us off. Would
leaving be wise?
Eva G-Cincinnati
Dear Eva:
First of all, you must make it
plain to Larry and to your friends
that you and he have quit. Also let
it be known that you are in the
market for an eligible bachelor. Go
places where single men gather
and by all means, make yourself
attractive to the opposite sex.
Ut is hard to comment on the
friend who introduced you. She
surely must have known the situa-
ton. You will be better off with
out her friendship" AS for Larry,
he seems to want his cake and eat
it too. He means you no good and
is using his status conveniently.
I'm sure I do not have to warn
you not to waste any more time
with him.
Unless there are no single men
around at all, I would advise
against moving away'and giving up
good job. Instead, take vacation
trips and weekend visits. You may
get a surprise. Above all, don't
let this thing get you down. You
are much wiser now and will not
be SO gullible in the future Don't
however, become bitter. You will
only drive friends away. Good luck
to you. f r
