rency has been going on for
centuries since money was
first used in Persia and Babylon
5000 years ago. Bonds suffer
through initiation, thence long
term bonds should usually be
avoided.
Of a given corporation, how
ever, the bonds should be safer
than the stock. provided the
bonds are due within about five
years. They have a first lien on
the company and. in case of
trouble, interest on the bonds
comes before dividends on the
stock. The safest investments of
all are healthy, well-trained chill
dren. To be doubly safe, take out
an insurance policy on each as
soon as it is born.
BABIES AND COMMUNISM

encouraged under any COM

own all land, factories, stores,

Babies are proba bly, the

families are believed to be the
richest, while a family with no
children is looked down upon.
Stocks are only two hundred

big promotion was that of the
Mississippi B u b e. sponsored
around 1715-172O in France by a
Scotsman; while the e CO d
great stock promotion was the

The Chronicle star the Moss Point advertiser., 1961-11-03
BY Robert Peterson

Nearly 20 years ago New
York housewife was contacted
by a welfare worker and ask
ed if she would take a foster
child into her home. Il don't
feel up to taking children,
she said wearily, "but
wouldn't mind taking an older
person.
Thus was born the plan Of
foster homes for older people
"a plan SO appealing and
practical that:it isnow operat-
ing in most Of the larger cities
of the nation. 49,.
Not only is it the most hu-
name plan yet evolved for
dealing with INDECENT elders,
but it offers the average fam
lily an opportunity for supple
menting its income.
In New York City nearly
600 private families are pro-
viding a friendly family at
mosphere for some 1900 older
people. And they are receiving
$3.50 monthly per boarder for
room, board and some personal
services.
Who are these elders? They
are older men and women who
can no longer work and who
receive public assistance.
BY making them available as
boarders to responsible and
sympathetic families there's a
three-way benefit: Cd it costs
the city less. to. support them
in foster homes than in costly
city institutions, ~ the elder
himself is happier IN a family
group than in an institution,
and 60 those who take them
into their homes can supple
ment their income with rela-
lively little trouble.
II like having someone at
home with me when my hus-
band and children are away"
said Mrs. John Clemson, when
called at a typical foster
home in New York City. The
Glensons are in their early
Sos, have three children in
high school, and a comfortable
but modest eight-room home.
Mr.. Glen is a parking lot at
tendant.
"I never thought we'd be

taking in boarders," she con-
tinued, "but we heard about
this program and decided to
give it try.
| wouldn't consider taking
in regular boarders, but this
plan is different. The Depart
ment of Welfare finds us
guests who are mentally and
physically sound and easy to
get along with. And we are
paid promptly every month"
Later l talked with her
boarders-two widows in their
late 7Os who had somehow
reached old age without funds.
"It's wonderful to live in a real
home," they told me.
They have the run of the
house but tend to stay close to
their rooms upstairs and tel
evision set provided for them.
They particularly enjoy talk
ing with the children each
evening after school.
Sometimes they join the
GlensonS for meals but they
prefer having their meals on a
tray in their room.
They are frail and need a
little assistance occasionally IN
dressing. But they mostly care
for themselves, and make a
pleasant addition to the family
group. And if they get sick the
Glensons call a welfare physi-
elan.
1t seems to me that this is
the finest solution yet devised
IN caring for INDECENT elders.
Responsible citizens every
where who have extra space
in their homes-and a sympa-
thetic attitude toward elders in
their hearts-should get in
touch with local welfare de-
partments and offer to join
this splendid foster care pro-
gram.

I'm the message of Pope
John XIII it was said that
the Pope addressed himself
to all men, believing and al
so non-believing,' since they
also belong to Christ by right
of origin and Redemption, in
the evident consideration that
there are at the same time
natural values, needs and hui
man rights, and common SO.
cial goods, that must be given
prior recognition, that must
be saved and Safeguarded.
1.-The Pope appeals to rea-
son in the light of faith. And
this human reason, whatever
may be its possible shadow
of presence, is capable of rec
ognizing what is evident to all
as wisdom and truth, that is
the circumstances of safe
guarding mankind against the
frightening hangers that
threaten it.
1T is not only terror that
urges us to peace, though this
is most justifiable, but the
consciousness of a supreme
moral responsibility and the
final judgment Of God, in
whom repose the roots Of
peace"

raise a minimum of $3,701,.
10000 for the IS agencies
which serve people in this
area. In a letter read at
masses last Sunday Bishop Is
senmann said:
"The United Appeal Cam
paign is the major voluntary
community effort for the sup
port of the health and well
fare, recreation and youth
services. AS citizens, we CO
operate in this effort which
is beneficial to so many of
our fellow citizens. VIZ seek
to do this also from the super
natural motive of Christian
Charity, which inspires all our
undertakings. Those helped
by this Appeal are our broth
ers in Christ. we wish to
assist them because we love
God above all things and our
neighbor as ourselves for
Gods sake. Our sacrifices for
this cause are sacrifices for
Christ in the person of His
needy and afflicted brethren"
OUR GENEROUS SUP
PORT is needed in a special
manner this year. The goal
represents only the minimal
amount needed to care for
the people served by these
agencies. Three Catholic pro-
grams benefit directly from
