By IRVING LOWENS

The 100-voice National Luz
theran Chorus. directed by
Charles A. Written, was heard
last night at Constitution Hall in
its annual Christmas concert.
The program was divided into
three parts. centering around
the advent. the birth. and the
childhood of Christ. Musically,
1T was climaxed by THE Child
hood of Christ" a cantata by
Johann Christoph Friedrich
Bach. one of the lesser known
sons of the great Johann Sebas-
Itian.
The work. which was sung in
English tas was the rest Of the
program proved to be a char
Iacteristically well-made piece in
the baroque style, consisting of
lrecitativeS. arias. and choruses
which might have been written
by any one of a dozen or more
competent composers of the era.
1t was less interesting than it
might have been because Of
the insistently plodding tempt
chosen by the conductor. Vari-
ETY. in dynamic range was also
lconspicuously absent. OF the
soloists. only julie Zabawa was
successful in infusing his part
with life: the others were too
busy finding the right notes 10
be concerned about such mat
tiers as Interpretation.
AS a whole. the cantata was
genteel rather than moving.
During the first half of the
program. Paul J. Christiansen's
tender and reverent -Four
Prophecies" with the narrator's
part admirably done by Marx
Evans Of TV fame. was Of most
consequence.
Except for the cantata and
the -Four Prophecies" the re-
mainder Of the evening was
devoted to music OF very little
moment. sung with unusually
little spirit or deftness.

Mrs. D. F.'s statement whats
sauce for the goose is sauce for
the gander" reflects her hurt and
her attitude toward going out
with men at this time. She is
showing her husband that her
life is not over. She. too, can win
another mate. She has so con-
fused her daughters that they
believe her socializing is to be
compared with their fathers
affair.
This is apparently not the case.
If Mrs. D. F. introduces her men
friends to her daughters, it is
because she is thinking in terms
of a second marriage and wants
to expose them and the men to
the possibility of a new kind of
family life.
Mrs. D. F. should explain this
to her daughters, but it would
be much better for her to hold
on this Socializing until after the
divorce decree becomes final.
Then her position will be clear
and aboveboard.
She has no husband. She is
young and wishes to make a new
life for herself. Her daughters
will then be able to understand
and sympathize. She herself will
be better able to make a wise
choice after a reasonable waiting
period in which she has had a
chance to get over her hurt.
Mrs. D. F. should also explain
that most men are not diff
ferent" as far as the code of
ethics is concerned. Marital inf

Citizens of Washington. who
often consider themselves sec
ond class" or just downright
gypped because they do not have
vote. nevertheless have some
thing to be thankful for.
They don't have to put up with
quite the same aftermath of po-
litical campaigns in the way OF
unsightly outmoded stickers and
posters clinging tenaciously to
the sundry trees and telephone
poles where vote-hungry cam
paigners nailed them long ago.
For the most part, the rest of
country does have to put up with
it.
Campaign supervisors coast to
coast arm their prediction
workers with garish posters,
nails, hammers and transporta-
tion-and the workers then sally
forth to exhort the public by
mailing Candidate So-and-So's
picture to everything in sight.
They Stay Up
But after the election-that's
different. Nobody wants to both
er with taking them down. And
so, as the weary commuter often
comments to his neighbor: II
have to look at that Elect
Whoozis to the County Board
sign every block for the next
two years. It's worse than TV
commercials"
The campaigners who are SO
to the post-election
sensibilities of the voter may be
riding for a fall. A check with
various authorities discIoses that
many local ordinances are being
passed prohibiting the use of
campaign posters along public
thoroughfares. And the reason is
primarily the callouSness of cam
paign committees which either
don't bother to remove their pre-
election signs at all or, if they
do remove them. just give them
a yank and leave remnants

The Councils View
BY RAY HENRY

The plane buzzed the two old
prospectors to alert them. Then
on the second pass, the pilot
dropped a package and headed
back to Juneau.
Thus unfolded one of the
strangest stories in the history Of
Social Security.
It started when a friend of the
gold miners, both over 70, told
the Anchorage. Alaska, Social
Security Office that the men were
eligible for monthly payments,
but were losing the money be-
cause they'd failed to file appli-
cations.
They were eligible as self -em-
ployed gold miners. And. the
friend said. they could i'll afford
to lose the money.
The problem: The men--part-
ners for As years - we're out
hunting gold in the back country
of Alaska. Ordinary ways to get
in touch with them weren't open
Nobody knew when they'd be
back to civilization.
The Juneau Office put the
problem to a local bush pilot. In
q few days. he was off in his
float plane with a package. It
contained application forms. d.
rections for filling them out and
instructions to leave the COM
pleted forms at a designated spot
on a lake a few miles away.
Drops Package
After finding the miners camp,
he dropped his package. The next
day he went back. landed on the
lake ard picked up the forms.
When the prospectors returned
to civilization. their checks
from the date they'd applied
we're waiting for them. If they
hadn't applied, they'd have lost
all the monthly payments while
away.
Perhaps. this isn't the stuff
movies are made of But. the
effort made by the Social Sc
curity people for the miners is
an indication OF how far they'll
90 to make sure you get what
you've got coming
Year-in-year-out in less dra-
matte ways the Social Security
Offices around the country are
searching for. finding and paying
benefits to persons who didn t
know they we're eligible. That's
part Of their job
But, many thousands Of per-
sons are missing payments be-
cause neither the persons them
selves nor the Social Security
people know that they're eligible.
So. II at any time you think
you or some one you know is
eligible for payments. the safest
bet is to call or stop by the near
est Social Security Office.
Z Important Times
There are four times which the
Social Security people think are
especially important for you 10
check with them:
When you reach retirement
age 80 for women. IS for men,
II your total earnings are not
more than 5000 a year. or II
there IS even one month Of the

The Details

The Details
Mrs. d. E-"My husband and
/ have been separated for a year,
and divorce proceedings are un-
der way. The reason for the
breakup was his affair with an
other woman, with whom he is
now living.
Il have two daughters. aged Is
and Is. who are aware of the
whole affair. At first they were
furious against their father, but
gradually he succeeded in win
ming them over.
During the past few months,
I have gone out with a few men.
My daughters were very rude to
them and afterwards told me
they considered it improper for
me to entertain men at home.
Il have tried to explain that
what's sauce for the goose is
sauce for the gander, that / have
as much right as their father
to live and enjoy life. can't
seem to make them understand.
June F.-"My sister and ! can
forgive our father because we
realize men are different. Any
way, at least he didn't flaunt this
woman in our faces. We never
met her and don't care to.
MY mother makes a point Of
introducing us to any man she
goes out with. It's embarrassing
enough to know your mother is
dating without having to meet
the men. When my mother re-
turns from one of these dates,
she sits talking to these men in
the living room until all hours of
the night.
Its not so bad for me. I'm old
enough to take it. but my mother
is setting a very bad example for
my sister. What she is doing
goes against everything she has
taught us and what you are told
in church. Mother should know
better"
The Councils View
June and her sister are two
badly mixed-up girls. and, to
make matters worse, the same is
true of their mother-who hap
pens to be the only one who can
restore their sense of balance.
