Grandma Loved It Mom Threw It Out! How times do change -- or do they? The first telephones were hailed as a great inventon and having one on the living room wall 50 years ago was as much a mark of distinction as having fins on your long, low, shiny car today. Then telephones became common. Nearly everybody had one. In fact, when the party line rang, it might be any one of a dozen neighbors talking. By this time, the phone ceased to be a novel ornament and was demoted to the back hall or the coat closet or some other inconspicuous place. People also found it more comfortable to sit down than to stand up when they talked. They could talk longer. Maybe the teen-agers were responsible -- anyway engineers designed telephones that stood on desks while the users sat on chairs. But there was the ungainly box for the bell. So somebody designed the modern telephone and dressed it up to match the kitchen, the boudoir, or milady's favorite hair rinse. But while these improvements were coming off the assembly line, what do you suppose happened to the old-fashioned telephone? It became an antique! Indeed it did. And then, having exhausted new ideas for radio cabinets, the designers looked around in museums and antique shops and there was their inspiration. So now, my dear, you can get the most fascinating old-fashioned telephone for your living room wall. Only you don't talk into it. It talks to you. Your radio's inside. It's too sweet. It fits right in ^ with turn-of-the-20th century decor. If no one stops to figure back, you could use it with late 19th century, or even I8th century furnishings, because, of -course, it is an antique and who minds mixing periods? But, there's something else. You don't have to use the telephone-type raido cabinet. There's the early American tea-kettle with a trivet to stand on.

When great-great-grandmother had the old fireplace sealed up and replaced with a shiny new stove such as Benjamin Franklin had invented, her tabby cat purred with pride and satisfaction as she sat before it. This was comfortable modern living! But then came furnaces, and stoves went to the basement or the junk yard. However, their day was not done, writes Jessie Ash Arndt in the Christian Science Monitor. In another generation or so, the old houses that still stood where grandparents had left them, when they moved to their "new" houses, had undergone a change. They were now "DEAR OLD" houses. They could be "restored." Fireplaces were opened, layers of paint peeled off to get down to the original color which was carefully matched. And if every room hadn't a fireplace, why not a Franklin stove? For heat? Oh, not necessarily. How about television? Why not sit before the cozy comfort of a pretty little stove to enjoy Victor Borge or "Meet the Press," or to watch your favorite team trounce its opponents. And no one would ever guess that there was a modern note in the dear old house unless Junior should dial his favorite western just as company walked in. Maybe times do change but not much. We have the same old sadirons, but r.ow they're door stops! LIVING IT UP Meet a man who claims to have worked longer than any other man ever lived -- Mr. S. Goven-der, of Lenz, near Roodeport, South Africa. His age? He's 105. He stopped work on a farm in 1954, when he was 101, after working, he says, ever since he was a small boy. Mr. Govender is an Indian. He attributes his wonderful longevity to the fact that he has worked all his .life in the open. CROSSWORD PUZZLE 1, Devil 8. Fortiflcau 3. Toughen musical In 20.

Only one U.S. agricultural college graduate out Of six (17 per cent) goes back to the farm upon completion of his schooling or military service. This average figure is based on returns from 50 agricultural colleges, cooperating in a survey by the Northern National Life Insurance Company's family economics bureau. Partly responsible is the large investment now required to set up a modern farm -- some graduates get back into farming later on. But the bureau's survey finds that the biggest factor is the wealth of well-paying opportunities for such graduates in agriculturally - related industries and professions. Nearly 30 per cent -- over half again as many us take up farming -- are snapped up by industrial and commercial firms at good salaries. Most of the jobs are in lines closely associated with farming, such as: Farm feed and supply co-ops, agricultural chemical and farm machinery companies, food processing and commodity brokerage firms; as cattle buyers for packing houses; as appraisers and consultants for banks and rural lending institutions; as herd managers; as buyers for retail food chains. Many also enter regular sales training courses with major corporations. The remainder of the approximately 7,300 who graduate annually in the U.S. with bachelor degrees in some branch of agricultural science are accounted for as follows: Into government agricultural services; 17-18 per cent; into teaching 12-13 per cent; into graduate study for advanced or professional degrees, 18-19 per cent; miscellaneous, 3 to 6 per cent. Most of the teacher candidates become vocational agricuture instructors in high schools. The government jobs are as county and 4-H club agents, conservation aids, agricultural experiment station work, U.S.D.A. and state bureaus, etc. Each year from 1400 to 1500 graduate students are given masters' degrees in some branch of agricultural science, and around 400 earn doctors' degrees. The advanced degree grads go mainly into college teaching or research, into research work in industry and government, into industrial management, veterinary medi- Thus it is estimated that between 80 and 90 per cent of all agricultural college graduates enter the service of agriculture. But most of this service is rendered in other ways than by tilling the soil directly. Joining the ranks of the 17 per cent who entered farming immediately however, are some five per cent or so who shift into farming after they have accumulated the necessary capital through a term of years in a salaried job. This fact is indicated in alumni surveys conducted by a number of the schools. The exact percentage is a bit vague because farmers are notably more allergic to answering questionnaires even from their alma maters, than ara alumni in business or professional jobs. , * , The survey finds a wide variation among the different agricultural colleges in the proportions of their graduates who enter farming, industry, education, etc, depending largely on the location of the different schools and on the curricula offered. The survey shows also that at the 50 schools covered, approximately 20 per cent of the B.S. graduates of 1957 would serve a hitch in the armed forces before embarking on their chosen careers. , , » Far more than the present annual net output of approximately 7,300 graduates in agriculture are needed, college heads say, to keep pace with demand. Yet in recent years the agricultural colleges h-\ve not shared appreciably in the general expansion in college student registrations. Three main factors are blamed: The less favorable farm cost-price relationship, severe drouths, and the well publicized salaries received by college graduates in other fields. Not generally realized by the public, especially young people of college entrance age, is the fact that four-year agricultural college grads of 1957 entered business and professional positions at salaries close to or equal to the averages enjoyed by graduates of other four-year colleges, while advanced degree agricultural science graduates are getting choice berths at salaries which compare favorably with those of the vaunted engineers. Home economics departments at 37 of the agricultural colleges also contributed information on placements. By far the largest segment of the young women -- a third -- went into teaching. Less than half as many -- 14 per cent -- entered business, and only 6 per cent entered government positions. Timely Warning Tulsa cement finishers were given a mouthful of sage advice recently. They were told if their work didn't improve they might find themselves without jobs What gave impact to the warning was the fact that it came--not from management-- but from Terry H. Beam, business agent of the local Cement Masons union In urging an improvement of standards, Mr. Beam said, "Taxpayers are losing their money in shoddy street repairs, concrete construe tion in home buildings is a disgrace, and even our bread and butter, commercial and industrial building, shows a creeping droo in quality." Contractors who want to build more cheaply, and build-ers who want to keep costs down, and cement finishers willing to cut the ' cious circle castigated by the official. Mr. Beam's remarks are aj plicable to more than the ce ment finishers.--Tulso World Oldest Talisman As the horse population slowly dwindles, horseshoes are gradually increasing in popularity as luck-bringers, reports a student of folklore. "Horseshoes are the oldest talismans for wooing good fortune that exist anywhere in tha world," he says. "Belief in horseshoe luck will never die, although the war nearly killed the custom of hanging horseshoes up for luck in soma of tho invaded countries. Now it is reviving in most lands, including Britain." Someone noticed that a horseshoe which hung many yens ago outside tha doorway of tho Prime Minister's London homo at 10, - Downing Street had its prongs pointing downwards. Ho and other superstitious passers-by declared that this boded no good. Three weeks later tha Government fell and tha Prima Minister went out of office. "It wouldn't have happened if the horseshoe had been hung with the prongs pointing upwards to keep the luck in," it was polnt- "Dad, why is a man not allowed to have more than one wife?" "Son, one day you'll realize that the law protects those who are incapable of protecting themselves." What this country needs is dirtier fingernails and cleaner minds. ISSUE 13 -- 1959 By Rev B B Warren B.A.. B.O. Jesus Christ Lives Luke 24:33-48 Memory Selection: This Jesus hath God raised up, whereof wa all are witnesses. Acts 2:32. In the world there are about 775 million Christians, 350 million Muslims, 320 million Hindus, 300 million Confucianists and 150 million Buddhists. In all of these religions there are many who are not careful followers of their teachings. There are some truths in the teachings of each of these religions. But we believe that Christianity is by far the greatest of them all. However, t^ke away the fact that its founder rose again from the dead and lives today and it would be as powerless as the other religions. Christianity claims to do more for the individual and for society than the others. And it does, where it is tried. The reason -- its founder, Jesus Christy the S-n of the living God, livens todav. Paul wrote boldly, "So, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you that are at Rome also. For I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek." Romans 1:15-16. Jesus was seen at least 10 times after his resurrection; on one of these occasions by 500 people. These appearances took place over a period of 40 davs. There could be no mistake. He had really died. A spear had been plunged into his side. Water and blood poured forth. The stone at the mouth of the tomb was sealed and a guard posted. But Sunday morning the stone was rolled back and the soldiers became as dead men. Jesus Christ cama forth in the glory of tha resurrection having conquered sin and death and hell. Tha disciples who on Friday had been so sad, on seeing Jesus, were filled with wonder and fear. Then came joy and courage. After his ascension and the bestowal of the Holy Spirit they went forth with boldness preaching Christ crucified and risen from the dead. Those who received their message and repent-ad of their sins and believed oa Jesus Christ found happiness. Jesus Christ lives. Does Ha liva in your heart?
