Fruit Pies H Helped
To ‘Modernize America’
““As American as apple ple,”” reflects an important truth about our cuisine, Our own kind of pie,
served as dessert, achieves some sort of perfection,
Early ples had meat fillings--as they still do in Europe. The first pies recorded, of Roman
origin, were filled with pheasant, peacock or wild boar., Fourteenth century Latin texts often
mentfoned “pye,”” In Chaucer’s time the art of pie baking was highly praised. English holiday
festivities were highlighted by the peacock pie, borne to the heavily laden table with much pomp
and ceremony,
In feudal society, the term, ‘“humble” ple, appeared, It referred literally to a ‘‘humble” venison
ple featuring less appealing cuts of meat, served to huntsmen or other lowly members of the
household, The master and his guests dined on more choice pieces of the deer, Also common
were the “glorious puddings and immortal pies?” hailed by Shakespeare; English main-dish
creations of meat, game and fowl baked in deep, tender crusts--just as our meat pies of today.
English ple recipes, brought to America by colonists, were naturally adapted to native produce
and game, Some {ingenious colonial housewives, perhaps longing for the spicy holiday puddings
or tarts of England, concocted a mince ple filled with bear meat, dried pumpkin and maple
sugar, topped with a corn meal crust,
The wild fruits and berries of the New World became popular fillings for pies as noted by an
immigrant living in Wisconsin, In 1851, in a letter he commented, ‘‘Strawberries, raspberries
and blackberries thrive here, From these they make a wonderful dish combined with syrup and
sugar which is called ‘pal,’ I can tell you this is something that glides easily down your throat,””
Henry Ward Beecher, the noted clergyman, solomnly declared, ‘‘Apple pie should be made,
annointed with sugar and butter and spices to form a glorious unity and baked with a crust.”
Stll in the American spirit of adaptation, the latest issue of Southern Hospitality offers simple
versions of four southern pastry favorites--Sweet Potato Pie, Damson Plum Pie, Blackbottom
Ple and Peach Pecan Fried Ples, The time-saving recipes, using self-rising flour, are designed
for busy homemakers, teachers and public utility home economists. Most of the pies can be
prepared in limited classroom or demonstration time,
TRAVELING THROUGH GEORGIA
BY GLENN MCCULLOUGH
It’s a stald and time-worn
slogan, this “See Georgla
First,”” which the dept, of In~
dustry and Trade keeps beating
the drums about, but there’s
some very logical advice in it
too, Now, I've seen Georgia,
maybe not first but many times,
but being influenced by all the
newspaper ads commanding me
to see my state first, I de
cided to see it again, And, I
was amazed, It was sort of like
seeing it for the first time
after all,
What a joy to ride on good
raods and playing the tourist
role all the way, I stopped at
every Welcoming Station.
We’ve got some mighty good
ambassadors for our state
working these stations and
they’re really knowledgable
about the attractions tobe seen,
Among the outstanding new
features I found is a regularly
scheduled fishing boat from the
Marina at Jekyll Island, Time

was when the boat left only
when it had a sufficient num=-
ber of people to make it pay,
But no longer, Now that boat
leaves as scheduled every day,
even if only one guest is aboard,
And fishing is quite good off
Jekyll, Jekyll seems to get
more beautiful all the time and
somebody down there sure de=
serves the ‘‘green thumb’’ a
ward,
In distinct contrast to Jekyll
is the thin fresh air area of
the state, up around Lake Win='
field Scott, nestled like a pre=
cious gem in the lush green
mountains of North Georgia,
Picturesque to behold from the
meandering U.S, 19, high above,
it is too delightful to view
only from afar, The cabins
are rustic but well equipped
and convenient and there’s no
better way to sleep than with
a lazy fire in the fireplace to
drive out the night chill, No
alarm clock is needed, the early
birds will call you to be greet
ed by a misty, fragrant morn
ing.
The seeker of scenic beauty
will find many spots in the
mountains, worth his time and
effort, Like Annie Ruby Falls
and Brasstown Bald, the high
est point in the state, and
they’re practically within
slingshot distance of each
other, On old Brasstown is be=-
ing built a new spectator to
wer which in itself is a sight
to behold, Come on down U.S,
19 to a-sort of key attraction,
by virtue of its history and
attitude--Dahlonega, which of=-
fers one of the most unusual
eating places in the state, the
Smith House, But come pre=-

Small Loaners Hurt By
0 l ° ° °
verloading Individuals
Georgla’s small loan companies should work out an effective
‘‘clearing house” program to aveid extending too much cre
dit to any one person. Comptroller General James L. Bentley
told industrial loan officials, ,
““We’re concerned about this poor fellow out there who gets
overloaded with loans,” Bentley said, Bentley, as state
industrial loan commissioner, regulates Georgia’s 1,060
small loan companies. He spoke Sunday at the annual meeting
of the Georgla Industrial Loan Assn. at Callaway Gardens,
‘“There are only so many potential small loan customers,*’
Bentley declared, ‘‘and when there are too many companies
in one area, there 1s a danger that some of these people
will borrow more money than they can ever repay.,’’
Bentley sald his office has managed to hold down the number
of loan licenses in the state, even though Georgia’s economy
and the loan industry have expanded.,

There are man ople missing outon their social security benefits because of mlsunderstandlng.
““These people gop‘;oxt> understagd the earnings provisions of the Social ’S’ecurity Act, agd they are
just not taking time out to get the facts from their district office,” stated E, L, Rawls, dis
trict manager of the Atlanta Social Security Office,
Mr., Rawls sald that hardly a day goes by when one of his staff does not come in contact wit),
someone who has lost some payments because he misunderstood or was misinformed, The best
way to avold losing your benefits is to talk to a social security representative,
‘“After all,” Mr, Rawls sald, “‘when you have trouble with an electricial appliance or with your
car, you certainly want to go to a place where you can get expert service, and there is no better
place where you can get expert service, and there is no better place to get ei::pert information abouyt
your social security payments than at your social security district office,
Many people of retirement age are unaware that they may be eligible for some social security
benefits for the year even though they are still working, The amount of the payment would de
pend, of course, on the total yearly earnings.
A person who is eligible for social security can earn up to SI2OO in the year without losing any
of his social security payments, For every $2 of earnings between SI2OO and SI7OO, only $1 in
benefit payments would be withheld, Over SI7OO, $1 in benefits would be withheld for each $1
in earnings over that amount, -
In addition, a person can get social security payments for any month in which he neither earns
over SIOO as an employee, nor renders substantial services as a self-employed individual,
Find out how your edrnings affect your social security payments, Don’t take a chance on losing
money, Visit your social security district office or telephone 526-6461 in Atlanta, A socia]
security booklet, OASI-23, entitled, ““If You Work While You Get Social Security Payments” is
also available, and will be sent to you on request.
QUESTION: When I put in my claim for social security, a young man at the office asked me
several personal questions about my age and marital status, Now I’m afraid my neighbors may
learn things about me that I’d as soon they didn’t know. Will you please not tell them anything
about me?
ANSWER: You do not need worry on that score, All social security records are confidential,
No one will learn anything about your social security claim unless you yourself tell them,
QUESTION: I am recejving widow’s benefits, I have my own social security number but I have
never worked any in ‘‘covered employment,” Will there be a lump-sum death payment paid on
my account number when I die?
ANSWER: No, there will not be a lump-sum payment in the event of your death because you your
self have never worked under social security and are not, therefore, and *“insured worker,”
QUESTION: You keep writing about housewives having to send in social security on maids,
What happens if I don’t make the returns at the right time? How would anyone ever find out?
ANSWER: Last year thousands of delinquent household employers were ‘“turned up’’ when for
mer employees applied for retirement payments, In these cases, many of the employees had told
the employer ‘“they didn’t want to join social security.” But when the employment ended they
quickly applied for retirement payments. This led to payment of the taxes plus penalties and in
terest for the former employers for not making reports at the proper time,
