FAMOUS FABLES
By e. E. EDGAR

PACT: When he was in his
COS. Supreme Court Justice Oliver
Wendell Holmes visited the home
of a Washington friend.
AS he stepped out on the porch.
he came upon the friends two
young daughters. who were dis
Icussing a teen-age problem with
friends. Observing that it was
not a personal matter. Holmes
attempted to join the discussion.
An embarrassed silence ensued.
Noting this, the jurist said:
Lets make an agreement. I
won't refrain from talking about
anything because you're too
young. if you won't because I am
too old"
This broke the ice. and they
resumed their chatter.
WRONG ESTIMATE: Wen
nese composer Oscar Straus had
a prominent nose, which domi-
mated his face. On one occasion,
he agreed to let a sculptor do a
bust of him.
When the sculptor arrived for
the first sitting, he took a small
lump of clay from his carrying
case.
rs that all you brought with
Iyou?" asked the composer.
1T will be enough" said the
sculptor.
"Enough!" Snorted Straus. 1T
won't even be enough for my
nose!"

Questions and answers:

From Mrs. H. X. of New York
City: Il paid into Social Security
for nine years before my mar
riage. was married about 10
years ago. My husband is now
eligible for social security pay
ments and so am I. Can / receive
social security payments both
on my own work record and on
my husband's?"
No. You may receive the
higher of the two. When you
apply for your payments, you
should ask that they be figured
on your own social security
record and on your husbands.
The social security Office will
then give you the higher Of the
two.
From 7. l. of Los Angeles:
I'm Is and never worked under
social security. Until recently
my son was helping me support
myself. but he died about two
months ago. His wife has her
hands full and can't afford to
give me any help. Is there any
other way / can get financial
help?"
You may be eligible for old
age assistance from the State of
California. ! suggest you get in
touch with the nearest Office OF
the California Department OF
Social Welfare.
From b. ii. Of Rantoul, Kans.
IT now receive a social security
check of $50 a month. My wife
gets a check for half this
amount. In case / should die
how much would my wife receive
per month";"
As your window, your wife will
be eligible for three -fourths the
total amount of your payments
or $67.50 a month.
From Mrs. ID. r. of Metuchen
N. j.: I'm 81 years old and have
been working in a job covered
by social security for a number
OF years. My husband is still
working and plans to continue
for at least five years. Can / col
lect social security payments al

count though my husband con.

Yes. Your husbands work has
no bearing on your eligibility
to payments. However, if you
were only eligible to draw pay
ments based on your husbands
work under social security. your
payments couldn't start until

Symbol Chasers
Certainly you know someone.
perhaps many whom the shoe
fits. These are the growing breed
of symbol-chasers. They do not
pursue success at all but only
the symbols of success. They do
not succeed for themselves, but
for somebody else.
They exhaust themselves pur-
suing the haubles which, to other
people, may signalize success:
power. prestige. fame, rank. and
all the other dazzling gems. Once
achieved, these seem to lose their
sparkle. and like bits of glass it
becomes easy to see right
through them-but it is too late.
Real success. by contrast, finds
its essence in the growth and
If1owering of the person. The in
ldividual who achieves it comes
to know, in place of the values
of the market place and the
CLASSY glitter of the symbols of
success. such personal satisfac-
lions as the joy of living, warm
relationships with others. feel
ing of productive aliveness.
For real success is not an out
ward but an inward feeling. 1t
is glow inside. warmth that
speaks to u; with the language
of comfort and satisfaction. With
it comes the ability to work with
"a greater feeling of giving and
less feeling of taking, the cour-
age to do the kind of work we
really want to do land to do it
with more love and less fear
a greater response to nature, an
inner quality of freedom and
response instead of tension and
Ientrapment, feeling of growth
and growingness rather than
stasis and decline.
The first step toward such a
goal is determination.

years under social security and

You can only draw the higher

your social security payments
will be higher than your present
railroad retirement payments.
you should ask your local social
security Office to figure them.
You aren't bound to start draw

that they will have to exercise
patience and understanding in
building their new life.
Yvette acknowledges her mis-
takes and she states clearly what
she wants-her husbands love OF
the right to return to her native
country.
What does Jack want?
He says that he doesn't want
to give up his son. He doesn't
want the problems or stigma OF
divorce. And he doesn't want to
love and trust Yvette, in other
words. to come to terms with
married life and accept his full
role as a husband.
But what does he want?
From his statement it appears
that he simply wants to blame
Yvette.
But what about a certain
American serviceman, one Jack
W., who wanted to have relations
with a foreign girl and casually
leave her behind?
Jack Shuns guilt, but his con-
science is troubling him. When
it bothers him, he prefers to put
the blame on Yvette. He is being
cowardly and unmanly. He
needs to accept his full share of
responsibility for the premarital
mistake.
Yvette, on the other hand,
must realize that she used one
of the Oldest and most despised
of tricks to snare her husband.
1t will take time and patience
to live down this deception and
prove that she is an honest and
worthy wife. She should not
demand a showdown, but try
harder to build a basis for more
love and respect from her huS-
band

about exercise.
Dear DR.. Steincrohn: Today
I was reading the st. Louis Post
Dispatch when your column
Over 40 Athletes" attracted my
eye. I hope you aren't expecting
a raking criticism of yourself
or your article; ! am a junior in
college and do not fall into your
age category of lover 40"
However, was greatly
amused by your column because
l have a dad who easily meets
the requirements. He's pushing
80 plus and every Sunday he
plays baseball. That's right. And
he's pitcher at that.
HE is member of the "Foun-
tain of Youth" league. whose
rules explicitly state that no
man under 80 years of age is
eligible to play.
No Heart Attacks
"Now this league and my
father have been operative for
close to 10 years, and I have yet
ito hear of any heart attacks or
injuries more serious than any
iteen-age game would produce.
Il have not the intention of
arguing with you. nor with any
