Christmas Here
Is Time OF Joy
And Happiness

The American Christmas is a
pageant of something old, some
thing new, great deal borrowed
and all of it blended into the
happiest holiday of the year.
No other day combines such a
harmonious pattern of religious,
pagan, seasonal and national
traditions from SO many corners
of civilization.
Pagans, for example, decked
their halls with holly for mid
winter festivals thousands of
years before the birth of Christ,
the National Geographic Society
says.
In comparison, three favorite
symbols of Christmas are fairly
new: The glittering, gift laden
Christmas tree, the greeting card
and Santa Claus as he is known
today.
Tradition says the original
Santa Claus was St. Nicholas, a
4th century bishop in Asia Minor
who gave gifts to the young and
poor. But the legendary patron
of children underwent striking
changes of robe, beard, person
ality and transportation as he
drove through the ages.
The American Santa, rotund
and ruddy aboard his reindeer
sleigh, evolved from the st.
Nicholas of Dutch colonists in
New York. The transformation
reached full stature in DR.. Gle
ment Clarke. Moore's classic,
"A Visit from ST. Nicholas" in
1928.

New Social Security Offices To Be Opened
In Marietta To Service Four Counties

changes in the law which for
the first time made farmers, GER
tain professional people and
others eligible for social security.
Population growth, with con-
sequent growth of the labor
force, also is steadily adding to
the social security rolls, Mr..
Schottland pointed out.
AS with the other "a locations,
the decision to open an office
in Marietta was based on study
of the population to be served,
types of employment, number of
those now drawing benefits and
other factors. Persons to be
served by the new Marietta
office include $4,000 people
whose work is covered by social
security.
At the beginning of 1857, over
5000 residents of the four coun-
ties to be served by the Mari
eta office were receiving social
security benefits amounting to
$424,000 a month.
The new office will be stated
to answer questions on social
security matters, help people in
applying for benefits, and issue
social security cards.

A new Social Security admin
istration district office will be
opened in Marietta in the near
future, Charles |. Schottland,
commissioner of Social Security,
announced today.
The new office will serve resi-
dents of Athens, Meigs, Monroe,
and Washington counties.
These counties have previously
been served by these district
offices: Athens, Monroe and
Washington counties by Zanes-
vile.
Meigs county by Portsmouth.
Noble county will continue to
be served by the GAINESVILLE
office.
Mr.. Schottland said the Mari
eta office is one of 25 new Social
Security offices soon to be
opened in various parts of the
country in order to provide
better service to persons COW
cred by social security, many of
whom now have to travel con-
siderable distances to reach an
office.
The number of persons COW
cred by social security has in
creased as a result of recent

When distributor contact points
go bad, engine smoothness and
power can become so poor that
you're almost ready to sell the
car.
Cleaning and resetting the points
will restore good ignition in many
cases. Don't be alarmed If they
show some signs Of pitting-that's
normal. However, If badly ritted,
worn or burned. they must be re-
placed. The condenser should also
be checked to make sure its capac-
ity is correct for your driving
needs.
Just the color of ignition points
may tell your serviceman where the
trouble lies. Instead of gray. they
may have a blackened appearance.
This would be due to oil, and re-
suits from overlubrication Of the
distributor or excessive crarkcase
pressures. A blue color indicates
burned points. When this condition
exists, an incorrect setting or con-
denser is usually responsible.
