Woman's Bible Class Of First
Methodist Church Has Meeting
The February meeting of the
Whbman’s Bible class of the First
Methodist church was held Tues
day afternoon in the annex.
After weeks of extremely cold
and bitter weather it was indeed,
a pleasure to welcome the lovely
calendulas and other bright spring
blossoms, beautifully arranged in
the spacious rooms, looking for all
the world ag if they wanted to say,
“Just wait, spring and warm wea
ther will come some time.”
The president, Mrs. J. P. Ingram
opened the meeting with the read
ing of a delightful poem entitled,
“Wouldn't It.”
Wouldn't this old world be better
If the folks we meet would say
I know something gezd about you
And then treat us just that way?
Wouldn’t it be fine and dandy
If each hand clasp warm and true
Carried with it the assurance
I know something good about you
Wouldn't life be lots more happy
If the good that's in us all
Were the only thing about us
That folks bothered to recall.
Wouldn’t life be lots more happy
If we praised the good we see
For there’s such a lot of goodness
In the worst of you and me,
Wouldn’t it be nice to practice
That fine way of thinking, too
You know something good about me
I know something good about you!
Preceeding the business, Mrs, P,
M. Andrews gave the helpful devo
tional. Her subject was the le
gend of ‘“Thé House W'ith the Gold
en Windows.”
The scene lay in a country with
many hills.
Perched upon one of these hills
was a, tiny cottage which sheltered
a woman and her little son. Every
day at even-tide the lad would sit
at the window and gaze out across
the calley to the hills on the other
side. He saw such a wonderful
sight. A house with golden win
dows. He told his mother about
it but she only smiled and said,
“You must be dreaming.”
The little boy could hardly wait
for the even-tide. He just knew
the faries lived in that dear little
house with the golden windows. He
wanted to see them more closely
80 one afternoon he alipped out
of his home without saying a word
to his mother. He ran as fast as
he could, stumbling and often fall
ing over brush and stone, but still
keen to reach his goal. _ He strug
gled on up the hill and finally
reached the house he had wanted
for so many days and dreamed of
at night.
What was his surprise and dis
appointment to find there were no
golden windowg but just plain glass
as every house in his village had.

I Slowly he turned and retraced
his steps. When he came to the
brow of the hill, and about tc des
cend into the valley, what wvag that
which caught his eye? 'Why, 'twas
{his own little home and the win
dowg were shining gold!
[The application airfi lesson of
]this legend was forcefully brought
lout by Mrs. Andrews, as she quot
!ed St. Paul: “Let your conversa
|tion be without covetousgness, and
be content with such things as ye
have,” and “Godliness with con
tentment is great gem.”
| One is so prone to look at the
‘other person and fancy one sees
the golden windows; thus caus
ing unrest which, if encouraged,
will grow into hatred.
f A contended mind is one of the
greatest assets one can have. There
lis a satisfaction and contentment
lin serving and working for others.
| If one would get the most out of
ilife, if one would follow Jesus, then
if’orget self and laugh and love and
live.
During the social hour games di
rected by Mrs. C. C. Jarrell were
enjoyed. In one game the side
that could put on and take off the
pillow case off the pillow first won
out.
Another mirth provoking game
was “‘Sausage.” All kinds of ques
tions ‘were asked, and the @mswers
had to be sausage; answered with
out a hint of a gmile.
The hostesses, otending the most
cordial hospitality at this joyous
meeting were Mrs, E. J. Bondurant,
leader of Group Two, Mrs. W. S.
Wilder, Mrs. €. €. Jarrell, Mrs.
E. 8. Price, Mrs. L. C. Cornelison,
and Miss Alice Moore, assisted by
Miss Birdie Bondurant.
Dainty refreshments, carrying
out the Valentine motif, were ser
ved at the close of the afternoon.

HECKMAN SPEAKER
TO KIWANIS CLUB
EUniversity Professor of
- Commerce Discusses So
' cial Security Act
By MARY GORDY
Texes levied through the Social
Security Act will be a _ terrific
burden which must be absorbed in
some way, H. M. Heckman, Uni
versity professor of commerce,
told Kiwanis club member at their
rwgular luncneon meeting Tuesday
at the Georgian Hotel.
In an analysis of the bill, Pro
fessor Heckman stated that there
were two main sections: the Old
Agoe Retirment Bill and the Un
employment Irsurance Section.
“Iv 7y person over 65 years of
age and who has worked for five
vears beginning in 1936 will be
eligible for a pension,” Heckman
declared.
“1t is really an insurance propo
sition on a large scale,” the'speak-‘
er eontinued, “with individuals
paying tax on all salaries up to
$3,000 per year. The first tax of
one per cent will be levied Jan
uary 1, 1931,
Accaording to Mr., Heckman
causal labor, agricultural workers
certain government employes, and
domestic workers will be excmpt
from the tax set forth in the bill
Concerning the Unemployment
Insurance section of the act
Heckman said: ‘“This affects em
ployers hiring eight or more work
-5 They will be taxed according
to e number of persons working
ulider them.
“It is purely a state matter and
the system must be in operation
two years In a state before any
resident therein may receive bene
fits from the government.”
He! :nan advised Kiwanians to
begin keeping more accurate and
specific records in regard to their
number of employes, total renum
erations from their individual
busire:s, and the amount of their
pay rolls.
E. B. Mell, vice-president, pre
sided at the meeting in the ab
sence of President Harry Brown. |
The attendance prize for this
meeting was won by Bill Mathis.
Piano selections were played at
intervals during the meeting by

ANOTHER QUESTION
WASHINGTON —(AP)—Wheth
er the United Mine Workers will
ask higher pay and shorter hours
in their next soft coal field agree
ments is the next big question to
face their convention here.
The present agreements last un
til April 1, 1937, but the conven
tion will ivstruct union officials
what to demand from the operas
tors when negotiations start next
winter, '
The union's anthracite divisions
already have decided to ask for
more pay and reduced hours in
their next contracts. The present
hard coal agreements expire next
April 1. Negotiations toward new
ones are slated to start February
24 in New York. i
The convention, disposed of its
most heated controversy last night
by voting, nearly three to one, to
continue ‘‘provisional”’ government
if districts reorganized when NRA
brought the miners streaming in
to the union.
Large factions from districts two,
thres and four in Pennsylvania
southern West Virginia and the
southwest asked the right to elect
their own district officers, but the
convention decided to leave ap
pointive power in the hands of the
executive board.

He said he did not know Gust

The authorities said the student.
insisting the bullets should have
hit Hitler, told them he killed
Gusttloff because he was an agent
of the Nazi regime which made im
possible a normal existence for his
fellow Jews .
The slayer said he was the son
of a Rabbi. was brought up in Yu

icine in 1929 at Leipzig but failed
his preliminary examinatoin there
and went to the Berne medical
scheol in October, 1933. |
Authorities expressed fear of se
rious repercussion from the assas
sination both in Switzerland and
Germany. T :
Gustloff, a militant Nazi, had
aroused the anger of Swiss social
ists by organizing CGermans ir
Switzerlandf in support of Adol
Hitler.
Anti-Nazis repeatedly had de
manded expulsion of the scientist
but Swiss federal council declded
his activities were within the law.
Clarke County Farm Debt Adjustment |
3 Committee Holds Meeting on Tuesday
i By JEANETTE WILEY |
t “The purpose o fthe plan by&!
which indepled farmers and their’
creditors may make settlements
under the State Farm Debt Asso

“The plan is not for the beneflt[

‘is it for dead-beats,” he continued.i
“It is a purely voluntary proposi- |
tion. Creditors co-operate by
scaling down tne debts according |
to the farmer’'s ability to pay. Thei
idea is to settle the thing out of
court, if possible.” i
Debts involving as much as sss.‘i

committee; some 140 counties have |
been made active again; and a to-!
