FAMOUS FABLES
By E. E. EDGAR

TOO LATE: One day some
years ago. when he was appear
ing in London, actor Maurice
Evans received a visit from di-
rector Guthrie McClintic. Would
Evans be interested in three
month American tour playing
Romeo opposite McClintic's wife
Katharine Cornell?
Evans had vaguely heard of
Miss Cornell, but the terms were
good, so he accepted. The pro-
duction was a huge success.
Evans was tremendously inn
pressed. He had never seen any
thing like it in England. He was
unaware that the customers were
flocking to see Miss Cornell. He
was convinced instead that the
United States was overlooking
with Shakespeare lovers.
When the tour ended, he de-
cided to stage his own Shake
spearean productions. He was
warned by friends that the Bard
was box-office poison, but he
paid no heed.
He learned a few years later
that his friends had indeed been
correct: that Americans were not
enthusiastic about Shakespeare,
not even lukewarm. But by that
time 1t was too late--he had al
ready made a fortune.

Inv RAW HENRY

Not long ago an elderly man
walked into the Reno New So
cial Security Office with a hand
full Of receipts showing that he'd
paid all his funeral expenses.
His problem?
He'd heard about the lump
sum payment that was made
after the death of a person who
has been covered by Social Sc
curity.
But. he had no relatives or
close friends to collect the pay
ment. There would be no sur
vivors or estate.
So, he decided to apply for
the payment to enjoy it before
he died.
No Lump Sum
Although there's no exact
record of the conversation that
followed his announcement, it's
known that he was told that
collecting the lump sum before
he died wasn't possible.
In fact. the payment plan is
limited even further.
1t can be made only to:
The surviving wife or husband
who has been living with or re-
ceiving support from the de-
ceased.
Or. anyone else who pays the
funeral expense-after death oc-
curs-if there is no surviving
wife or husband.
The amount of the lump sum
payment can range from 500 to
$255. Except for persons already
receiving Social Security retire.
ment payme nts. the exact
amount of the lump sum is never
known until death occurs.
Maximum Of $255
The formula used by the Social
Security people in figuring the
payment is: Three times the
monthly retirement payment the
deceased worker would have re-

Whether the survivors Of a de-
ceased person will be eligible to
receive the payment at all de-
ponds on how long he's been
covered by Social Security.
Generally, survivors qualify
either because the deceased
worker had worked under Social
Security at least 10 of the last
SO months before his death or
because he was receiving Social
Security retirement payments at
the time Of his death.
But, there are exceptions to
this.
Since the lump-sum payment
isn't made automatically, prob

to make out an application.

THE DETAILS

THE DETAILS
Clara S.-My husband and
met when we were in our teens
He was the life-of-the-p party
then and / used to think he was
pretty funny. and I was proud
|of him. Now, however, we're
practically middle-aged and he
carries on the same way he did
then. I no longer think it's funny
and I doubt whether anyone
else does.
"The fact is I don't care what
anyone else thinks, but hate
to see my husband make a clown
of himself. He has no dignity at
all. He is the butt of all jokes at
parties. He talks and laughs
louder than anyone else. Some
times I am SO embarrassed l get
UP and walk out of the room
when he is performing. I don't
want to go out with him any
more if he's going to act like
that"
Elliott SIT is Clara who
makes things embarrassing, not
I. When were are out together,
she constantly tells me to shut
up, lower my voice or not tell
that story again. Everyone else
may be waiting to hear what 1
have to say, but they have to
wait until Clara storms out of
the room to hear it. Then they
ask, What was that story you
wanted to tell?'
II like to relax and let my hair
down when I'm with people.
like to see people have a good
laugh. Why should I have to be
on my dignity when I'm with
friends? Everybody but my wife
tells me they enjoy my company.
CLARA even criticizes the way
I act with our kids. like to
joke around with them. We dress
up and put on skits and their
friends love to watch. But Clara
says I'm teaching them to be
like me-"
THE COUNCILS VIEW
1t may be a comfort to Clara
to know that her problem is not
unique. Women seem to value
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1956-12-25

dignity in social relations more
than men, and many women grit
their teeth when their husbands
go into their act or tell stories.
But Clara fails to apply any
criticism to her own social per-
Torrance. From what both she
and her husband say, it is pretty
poor. A wife who tells her hus-
band to keep quiet or walks out
of the room when he is holding
the floor causes acute embar-
rassment. and puts a pail on the
entire party. Her husbands con-
duct may be enjoyed by many
people and bore a few others,
but hers distresses everyone and
is ineXcuSable.
Clara seems unable to accept
the fact she has married an ex-
travert and a born performer.
Such persons add a lot of zeSt
to the lives of others. Their per-
formances may not always be in
good taste, but the individual
himself is usually appreciated for
his high spirits and friendlinesS.
If Clara would grant her hus-
band his natural right to full
freedom ir the home, she might
find he is capable of toning down
a bit in company. A father like
Elliot is a boon to children, but
Clara's criticism is teaching
them a narrow-minded and
petty dislike of him. and of fun
in general.
Clara would stand a chance
of influencing her husband if
she learned to appreciate him
and break down her own petty
inhibitionS.

Except for chest pain associ-
Eated with these unmistakable
conditions-and only occasional
ly with other types of heart
trouble-pain in the chest is
not due to heart disease.
I remember one patient who
had an attack of coronary oc-
clusion about 10 years ago. He
is very apprehensive. He has
translated every little muscle
twitch in his chest as another
heart attack" He comes for re-
assurance and is relieved until
the next awareness of trouble
in his chest.
I tell patients that these
symptoms have nothing to dc
with their hearts; that anxiety
and fear magnify their COM
plants.
If you have had a severe heart
attack it is natural that you
should be apprehenSive. All ]
can hope to do is to make you
less so. If you have real" pain,
by all means notify your doctor
lat once. However, you should
remember that there are many
causes for chest pain other than
the heart.
For example: Arthritis of the
spine or shoulder; neuritis. my

ulcer, gall-bladder disease, pleu-
|risy and the common garden
variety Of muscle sprain.

a heart attack.

YOURSELF
Many Chest Pains Don't Involve Heart
By DR.. PETER }. sTEINcRoHN

Dear DIR. Steincrohn: / have
a very dear friend who in Feb
ruary this year suffered a very
severe heart attack. Within the
last month he has had pains in
the right side of his chest, rang
ling from the breast to the shoul-
der.
"He told his doctor about 1t
and he said it was muscular. Is
this true? I would appreciate
greatly hearing from you in re-
gard to this. Thanking you. ]
remain yours truly. Mrs. H. L. D. ;"
And here is another letter that
describes chest pains as a prob
lem:
Dear DR.. Steincrohn: I read
your column every day and enjoy
and learn much from it. would
appreciate it very much if you
would give me your opinion on
a problem of my own.
For the past year or so I have
been having pains in my chest.
The doctor who delivered my last
baby said it was probably mus
cular and let it go at that. / ac-
cepted that but still it worries
me because at times it is very
sore and it hurts to stretch.
"Could lifting my two girls,
3 and 1. have anything to do
with it? I hope you can find
time to answer my problem. Mrs.
M. M"
Answer: Many q person lives
in constant fear after he has
had a heart attack. Such a per-
son is interpretive. He is aware
of any sensation in his chest
such as a muscle twinge, palpi-
tation. heart skip or burning
feeling. Immediately he thinks
of the worst. This must be a
recurrence of my heart trouble -
or This must surely be a warm
ing that my heart is getting
weaker"
I am sure that the friend Of
the first letter writer-although
his pains are on the right side
Of his chests concerned about
the possibility that his present
symptoms are connected with
his heart"
As for you Mrs. M. M. I don't
know If you too are worried
about your heart because of the
chest pains. But 1t is my guess
that you are.
First. let me emphasize that
none of us should underrate the
significance Of chest pain. 1t can
be q symptom Of heart disease
In coronary thrombosis. for
example, 1t is one Of its out
standing symptoms.
But the pain here is usually
unmistakable. 1t is not confined
to the left side Of the chest.
1t is an oppressive, squeezing,
constructing. painful pressure
that envelopes the entire chest
It has been described by patients
as burning. crushing. squeez-
ing" 1t often extends right
through to the back and down
one or both shoulders TO the
arm, forearm and hand. 1T con-
stricts like a wise"
True, some attacks feel only
like an attack Of Indigestion
others are only distressful in the
abdomen and not in the chest
Nevertheless. chest pain" Is usu-
ally the presenting symptom.
Likewise In angina pectoris
After a heavy meal, after ar
emotional outburSt or upon ex-
ertion like walking rapidly the
patient has chest pains that

abide with you forever even
the Spirit of Truth"
In declaring these aspects of
God. He displayed a mystic diff
fusion, the Trinity--God, His
Incarnation as Man, His Spirit,
all united-"and those Three are
One"
But it was in that birth in
Bethlehem "in the likeness of
men in the fashion as a
man"-of One called both wholly
man and wholly God-that the
world received the lamp unto
its feet.
Living Manifestation
He came as a living, tangible
manifestation Of the divinity
that all men share a quality to
be enlarged or diminished with
in themselves on both sides of
the grave.
Until He came, men had felt
they didn't know exactly what
that godly element was in hui
man life, or how to go about
nurturing it, or what pitfalls
might limit it--until He showed
them God, in flesh and word
and deed.
He gave to them a clearer
view. an earthly demonstration,
of just what God constituted on
this earth-bound plane, and laid
the goal before lnen-to guide
them on their course.
Fortnight Man
What did He do. or say. or be
that gave such revelation?
He was a plain-talking, SYM
pathetic, fortnight man Who
liked flowers and fields and live
stock, Who held youngsters on
His knee. Who considered every
man. rich, poor, learned or sim
pie, Of the same priceless worth.
His message was that all men
are related to God, free to hus-
band that divine part of them
selves as they choose in seeking
fulfillment, and He described the
ultimate potentiality:
THAT they all may be one,
as thou Father, art in Me, and
I in Thee. that they also may
be one in U.s."
He Showed the Way
But this Child of Bethlehem
didn't shut Himself off in some
ethereal realm during His earth
ly sojourn. He plunged into the
world itself, walking a breathing
definition Of forgiveness, kind
ness, understanding, and gentle
ness; q living condemnation of
hypocrisy. Of pompous techni-
calities that have nothing to dc
with justice, and Of greed and
the pursuit of shallow detectives,
And the kernel. of all He did
and said was in one word:
Love-"
Love the Lord thy God, and
thy neighbor as thyself =. as
have loved you.p
Came Out Of Love
That. men hold, was what God
was like during His visit to
earth: He came here out of love,
to help men find their way, and
that Is what He was while here
the embodiment Of love.
God is Love. And he that
dwelleth in love, dwelleth in God
and God in him"
He bridged a gap Of loneliness
separating men from their God.
He marked the hidden trail by
which lost sheep could flnd the
fold. But He didn't expect men
to understand 1t all, or all OF
what He is. or what they are. or
can be. And so He passed on this
advice through His apostles.
Now we cannot yet see all
things But we see Jesus"
