Will mothers and sisters ever
find a way to join the other hob
by-mad members of the family?
Many have already with Arto-
rama, the new craft craze being
introduced by Monogram Models,
Inc. With Artorama, everyone in
the family can help create three
dimensional scenes of far-away
places-giraffes, lions, or zebras
caught in a moment of real life
on the African veldt. These new
craft kits let you make, paint,
and position the animals in front
of the scenery, which you also
have a hand in constructing. After
framing your Sd creations,
you'll have the most unusual wall
decorations in town.
Hep hot rodders have taken to
candy colors this year. Some line
their trunks and floors with furry
pink Acrilan. Others paint the
bodies with pure red paint to
make the finished job shine like a
candied apple, or with pearl made
from fish scales for a satin-like
sheen. Next year watch for
pearl that changes colors. 1t may
look red in the sun and green in
the shade, for instance.
Some folks in Portland, Oregon
got neat idea for z trophy from
their 10-year-old son. The lad not
only builds and races quarter
midgets, but recently put together
Monogram Models's Quarter Mid
get Racer kit. 1t seemed the per-
feet trophy for winners of races
in their sons quarter midget as
ISOLATION, which the parents help
run. Some of this summers
prizes, as a result, will be Mono
grams kit, which is especially
exciting because the racers can
motorize it.

ChirOpractic
Adjustments %.
Restore and
Maintain Health

The spinal column consists of
the "a bone segments, called
vertebrae, together with the sa-
crum and coccyx. The spinal
cord passes through these ver-
tebrae and all the great nerve
trunks emit from the openings
between these vertebrae, which
openings are known as the in
tervertebral foramina. The vital
life force within man is carried
by these nerve trunks from the
brain to the various organs,
muscles, and tissues of the body.
For every effect you must
have a cause; that is a funda-
mental law of physics. If a per-
son is i'll, then the condition Of
disease, regardless of the name
applied to it, is in fact an effect
for which there must be cause.
The Chircpractic premise is
that the cause of disease is due
to a vertebral subluxatiOn, which
produces an impingement upon
nerves and thus interferes with
the transmission of life force.
The Chiropractic objective is
to determine the vertebral sub
luxation that interferes with the
transmission of this vital life
force, and, thru proper adjust
ment by hand, to correct the YER
tebral subluxation 50 that the in
reference is removed, thus per-
hitting the restoration Of
Health.

Social Security
CHANGES IN YOUR SOCIAL
SECURITY

The new amendments to the soci-
al security law, signed by Presi-
dent Kennedy last week, give men
early benefit rights similar to those
women have had since 1856.
The change applies to men be-
tween 62 and IS years of age, and
is designed especially to help those
who are unable to find employment
because of their age or poor health.
A man now 62 to IS years of
age can start receiving benefits
with the month of August. But if
he retires before he reaches age
65, the monthly amount of benefit
paid to him is reduced. He will
continue to be paid the reduced
amount even after he reaches IS.
Dependent widowers and the de-
penden: fathers of workers who
have died also can get benefits at
age 62. Their benefits, like those
of widows and dependent mothers,
are not reduced.
For men who retires early, the
amount by which their benefits will
be reduced depends on the number

Of months for which they will re-
ceive benefits while still under
65. A worker who retires & claims
his benefits as soon as he reaches
62 will qualify for 81 percent of
the amount that would be payable
to him at age 65 based on his
average earnings up until his re-
tirement. If he waits until he is
G3, he will get sc 2i2 percent of
his benefit; and if waits until "a,
the amount will be 90 1I3 percent.

end and history.
Farm Income

Mississippi farm cash income for
1861 could exceed that for 1860
because of larger acreages in cot
ton, soybeans, wheat and rice, and
heavier marketings of broilers,
eggs and meat. Cotton still leads
all other farm enterprises in Mis-
sissippi as a source of cash in
come. Biggest gain in farm cash
income at midyear is from the
larger sales of eggs, broilers and
milk. Weather, however, will be
the big determining factor in the
final outcome of the 1861 harvest
and cash returns.

Time To Plant Seed For
Own Plants
When biennials and perennials
are grown from seed, summer is
the best time to plant them. The
seeded should be located, if pos
sible, in a partially shady spot;
if not, a frame with alternately
spaced Stats will provide just the
amount of shade needed. When
these two groups of flowers are
planted too late, they may not
bloom the following season. Peren-
mails are at their best in two or
three years when good, strong
clumps have been formed.
