Last weeks days of warming
sun and greening grass started
far more activity than furtive
glances at the work which
needs to be done around the
house and lawn.
Rising temperatures usually
bring a rising wanderlust pulse.
The furtive glance usually
takes in the family touring
automobile, accompanied by
conjecture on replacement. The
auto industry is counting on
March to start the seasons

and motel men are tidying up
for the spring and summer

And this time of the year is
the best to contemplate what
appears to be a growing ten

Traveller to think about his &C

The Long Search
AS more and more hotels and
motels make their appearances
along the waysides, the motor
list on vacation begins to get
the feeling that there will be
plenty for all. Those among us
who have preferred the flexi-
bility Of travelling without ad-

well that despair which grows
with the mo vacancy" signs as
the neon lights begin to
come on.
A travel-weary, bored child

The advance reservation is

WELFARE ANSWERS
FOR THE PEOPLE
BY
BERNADETTE W.. HoYtE
stuse Welfare Public
information Officer

This is the 18th of d series ex-
planning public welfare in North
Carolina)
Old age assistance Is a money
payment in the form of a check
for needy persons, IS years of age
or older, who meet eligibility re-
quirements under law. Such finan-
cial assistance is made possibly by
Federal, State and county funds.
All Of the persons resources are
taken into consideration in deter
mining the extent of each applica-
ton, and as cases receiving assis-
tance are regularly reviewed.
A typical case history from the
files Of the county departments of
public welfare in North Carolina
is the story of a 74-year old wo-
man whose husband died after a
long illness. The woman went to
live with her son and his wife.
However, the son was killed in an
automobile accident. The daughter
in-law was unable to care for her
husbands mother, so the old lady
returned to her home town. Her
husband had been employed for
many years but his wages were
very low and although they had
been able to live and pay their
taxes, they were not able to save
enough for their old age
Upon his death she had become
eligible to receive minimum Social
Security payments, but again, this
was such a small amount that she
was unable to meet her daily
needs. For many months she lived
with friends, going from one home
to another as the small circle OF
people who knew and loved her and
had enough room in their homes,
could accommodate her. She was the
kind of woman who had always
liked to keep house, and she missed
having her own little kitchen to
work in, and the potted plants she
loved to tend. Also, she realized
that her friends were not in a posi-
ton financially to support her.
She applied for old age assis-
tance at the county department Of
public welfare and was found eligi-
Bile to receive a small money grant
to supplement her Social Security
| payment, which made it possible
| for her to establish a home again
This home is a tiny apartment ir
a low cost housing project which
she rents at a minimum rate.
Here she is happy again, seli
sufficient, and able to take cart
| of her physical needs herself.
Her whole attitude toward life
has changed. Instead of being 8
forlorn helpless old woman depen
dent on the generosity Of friends
she is again self-sufficient persor
lin her own right. She attends
church, takes part in some Of ths
community activities, and through
out the year spends much Of he1
time making attractive, inexpensive
articles for her church bazaar.
This is just one of the thousand:
of cases in which old age assistance
has helped an elderly person IL
North Carolina.

LAND OF MALTESE CAT
AND CROSS WILL AGAIN
Be SELF-RULlNG NATION

WASHINGTON-Little Malta,
land of the Maltese cross and cat,
is once again self-ruling.
The british gave the Colony in
depence in 1947, but returned it to
Crown control in 1859 when the
two governments were unable to
agree on constitution. Now the
Maltese have been given full self
governing powers except in defense
and foreign affairs. They will elect
a 50-member legislature in Feb
ruary.
The new estate of Malta consists
of the main island, 94.9 square
miles, plus the lesser known islands
Of Coco and Comino, and two unin-
habited rocks, the National Geo.
graphic Society says.
Client Dormice,
Pygmy Elephants
Fossils of giant dormice, hip
popotamuses, and pygmy elephants
found in shadowy caves suggest
that Malta was once part of land
bridge between Europe and Africa.
Neolithic temples and mysterious
underground shrines on the wind
swept cliffs indicate the islands
might have been Stone-Age Holy
Land.
Phoenicians colonized the island
mine centuries before the Christian
era began. They were followed by
the Carthaginians who were routed
by the Romans who were conquered
by the Arabs who were beaten by
the Normans who were succeeded
by the Spanish.
Saint Paul, shipwrecked and
washed ashore in about A. D. so,
converted the islanders to Chris
tianity.
Malta's golden age began in 1880
when the Emperor Charles v of
Spain "gave" Malta to the Knights
of st. John for the nominal price
of a falcon a year. The Order, later
known as the Knights of Malta,
brought treasures and holy relics,
Including what they believed to be
a piece of Christ's cradle and the
right hand of their patron saint,
John the Baptist.
For $50 years, the Knights were
