SOCIAL SECURITY
The term “social security’”
means different things to differ-
ent people. Whatever it means
to the users of the term, the
Social Security Administration
wants everyone to know what it
represents in family protection
provided through its old-age,
survivors, and disability insur-
ance system.
Most people know that social
security insurance payments go
to retired workers and to their
families. Fewer are aware of the
benefits for families of workers
who die. Still fewer have heard
of disability insurance for eligi-
ble severely disabled workers and
their dependents.
This three-way family protec-
tion is worked for and paid for
by employees, their employers
and the self-employed; yet there
are many among those who work
and pay social security taxes
who do not realize the full extent
of the financial protection they
are providing for themselves and
their families.
The Social Security Adminis-
tration urges you to write or vis-
it your nearest social security
office for benefit information
whenever you or someone in
your family retires or becomes
severely disabled. You should
also get in touch with your so-
cial security office whenever a
worker in your family dies.

Flood Damage
How much damage did the
flood cause you? What would
you estimate the total damages
from the flood in the Boerne
area amount to? A number of
people and organizations are in-
terested in findout this. A sur-
vey is now in progress to deter-
mine the exact damage. This will
mean someone will try to contact
each farmer, rancher, and land-
owner in the damaged area near
Boerne covering all creeks drain-
ing into the Cibolo Creek. Please
try to help with this survey
when asked. The Kendall County
Soil Conservation District is in-
terested, wherever possible, in
working with local groups to try
to decrease such future heavy
losses.
*****
Given Flood Protection
One cooperator in the Boerne
area said, “After I received a-
bout 5 inches of hard rain re-
cently, I went out to survey the
results. To my surprise, on one
terraced field that was divided
and treated in two different
ways, the results were com-
pletely opposite. The one that
was plowed and had little crop
residue left on the surface had
an excessive run-off from each
terrace. But the part that was
plowed with a large amount of
straw left on the surface of the
soil had little to no water to run
out of the terraces.”

Improves Rangeland
L. R. (Johnny) Johnson, nor-
th of Kendalia, has two of his
pastures resting now. Three old
fields were seeded to King Ran-
ch bluestem several years ago,
and all have a very good cover
of grass on them now. Johnson
is particularly careful not to
overgraze these King Ranch
bluestem fields. Seed is harvest-
ed and scattered over bare areas
on the ranch. Realizing that
grass plants must be protected
from over use one or more pas-
tures are rested each year. With
periods of rest and proper use,
Johnson had made great pro-
gress in rebuilding a poor run-
down range.
* * Hs * *
Emil Kneupper had a field of
guar on his ranch east of Ken-
dalia this summer. A fair grow-
th was made though moisture
ture was very limited. Kneupper
realizes that cropland must have
soil building crops to improve
its fertility. For many years he
hag used crops of guar, clover,
and peas for this purpose.
*****
Rests Pastures
jPat Mathis has two pastures
regting on his ranch east of Ken-
dalia. Mathis realizes that grass-
es must have periodic rests so
that they can improve in vigor
and density.
Mrs. Pearl Norris has accep-
ted a position as bookkeeper
with the Boerne State Bank.
Mrs. Norris was formerly em-
ployed by the General Telephone
Company of the Southwest as
Chief Operator and Cashier.

SCHOOL CHILD’S PRAYER
Now I set me down in school
Where praying is against the
rule.
For this great nation, under God
Finds public mention of Him odd.
Now violates the Bill of Rights.
Any prayer a class recites
Any time my head I bow
Becomes a Federal matter now.
Teach us of stars, or pole or
equator
But make no mention of their
Creator.
The law is specific, the law is
precise;
Praying out loud is no longer
nice.
In silence along can we meditate
And if God should get the cred-
it, great!
This rule, however, has a gim-
mick in it;
You’ve got to be finished in less
than a minute!
So all I ask is a minute of quiet;
If I feel like praying, maybe I’ll
try it.
If not, 0 Lord, this plea I make;
Should I die in school, my soul
you’ll take.
(Paul Bensaquin in the Glen-
dale, Calif., Postal Dispatch.)

The umpire at the baseball
game was very short, and self-
conscious of his size. A big
husky player was at bat and an-
other one was catching. The
count was one and one. The
pitcher threw and the ball siz-
zled across the corner. The di-
minutive umpire squeaked
“Two.”
The batter growled, “Two
what?”
The tiny umpire looked at the
batter, and also at the catcher
who was glaring at him and
said, “Too close to tell.”

A DEAD LETTER
Dear Dad:
My heart is heavy.
My eyes are blind with tears :
I am writing you this letter
Tho you’ve been dead forty
years;
But time has brought we know-
ledge,
I am wrikled, Dad, and gray,
My old heart just seems bursting
With the words I want to say:
I know now, Dad, your strug-
gles,
I know your trial and cakes,
I have learned the bitter lesson
Of the pain a father bears;
And now that I’ve a boy myself
Who scorns my guiding hand,
I know how wrong I was when I
Thought you didn’t understand.
You tried so hard to be my pal,
I know how hard you tried,
But I laughed at your old-fash-
ioned ways,
And kept you from my side;
I stumble, groping down the
road,
The journey nearly done,
Oh, Dad, please meet me at the
end
And guide me Home,
Your son.

HOOKED
By the time a man recognizes
his faults his bad habits have a
strangle-hold on him.
A noted entomologist was de-
livering a lecture on the dangers
of rat infestation. The fifth
grade class listened with rapt
attention and after the lecture,
one of them wrote the speaker
a note of thanks. It concluded by
saying:
“Thanks so much. We didn’t
even know what a rat looked
like until you came to our
class.”
