Memphis World Memphis World Publishing Co. 1964-01-04 J. A. Beauchamp Descendants Of Washington's Slaves Expand Tenn. Business The new plant of the Hemphill Press, one of Nashville's senior business firms, will be the first tructure of its kind and size in the area between Fisk and Tennessee State universities. Ground floor of the 150x100 building will be used to bring the expanded printing plant back under one roof, except for the west end, which will be leased to a local firm. The second floor will be occupied by professional offices which are already being rented. Entrance to the offices and printing company will be through a two-story glass front lobby at the east end. The building will be airconditioned. Offstreet parking will be provided at each side and at the rear of the structure. Construction is expected to begin within six weeks; according to Sumner G. Hemphill, head of the family - owned firm. McKissack and McKissack are architects for the all-masonry building. Announcement of the new plant is another chapter in "Horatio Alger" or "Up From Slavery" story. Hemphill Press was established in Nashville in 1886 by Gray Washington Heraphill, who "came here for his formal education at Fisk university. He had become an apprentice printer at Kosciusko, Miss., Where the family had been freed about the time of the Civil War. Before moving to Mississippi, the family had been a part of the George Washington plantation in Virginia, according to family tradition. Fisk university was chosen because it Offered courses in religion and Hemphill had become interested in the ministry. Working his way through school by printing, he ha his first Nashville press, a foot-powered machine, on Cedar Street, later operated from his brother's barn at Mount Nebo, near the present location of Nashville Christian Institute. Hemphill served as pastor of Howard Congregational church for many years. Hemphill Press has 13 full time employes and will probably add more when the new building is completed. The old shop is now used to house part of the offset equipment added a year ago. Despite its size, Hemphill Press still operates as a family organization. Hemphill died in 1927, but his widow, the former Ella shields of Nashville, is still active, although failing eyesight limits her participation now, Their oldest son, Stanley B., became head of the firm after the death of his father serving until 1956, when he died. At that time the younger son, Sumne G., became operating head. A daughter, Mrs. L. A. Cardell is treasurer. Stanley's widow, the former Clotee Wallis of Forth Worth, is in charge of the office. Stanley Jr. is working in the plant now," while his sister, Dianne, an office helper during summers and now a teacher, planned a Xmas Day wedding to Reynard McDonald, student at Meharry Medical college. Stanley's other son, Nathan, is 14 and in school. The high quality printing standdards established by the senior. Hemphill are stili carried on — Sumner G. can remember when "Papa" saved the short-run church ticket jobs for him so he could earn his pocket money. "Mama" ran the errands, buying paper and delivering orders of statments and card to businesses along Cedar Street and at the Market House, which were principal sources then of Hemphil business.

VA officials issued this warning pointing out that the questionnaires were mailed a month earlier than usual the this year. VA mailed the income information forms with the November 30 checks but the return deadline date remains, January 31. The questionnaire carries a printed warning which reads, "Important. Failure, to return this card before January 31, 1964, will result in discontinuance of payment. You would also be required to pay back all the pension you received last year." Since these benefits are paid only to those veterans, their widows or minor children whose incomes are below certain limits, the VA is required by law to receive an income report each year to support the payments.

EARLY WINTER TRIPS FOR HOME GARDENERS Although gardening admitedly slow down in January, there are still a number of things which the up-and-coming gardener can, and should do to keep everything in tip-top shape recommend the horticulturists of the Union Fork and Hoe Company, makers of gen tools. First of all, he should keep all salts and ice-melting chemicals carefully off his lawns and other plants, If his steps and walks drain in such a way that these materials run harmlessly away from his plants, they are safe to use. If, on the other hand, they n off on the grass or into your plantings severe injury might result. In All such cases, of course, remove the ice with a good., sturdy sidewalk scraper. Lacking that, a pointed scuffle hoe will often do the trick. Another useful tool, not often seen in suburban reas but sorts of leveling and scraping jobs one which is most useful for all year 'round is the Green Thumb rounded turf edger. Coarse fertilizers, too, can sometimes be used in place of the traditional chemicals to melt the ice. Experiment with them first; and of course, beware of overdoses. Also, it is particularly important to keep snow off evergreens and other plants likely to be snapped off by the weight of suffer brok en branches. The best cure is prevention. Whenever possible, knock the snow off while it is still soft Once it becomes wet and soggy or turns to ice, it may be too late However, as a last resort and if the weather is not too cold. It is often possible to wash it off with, strong steam of water from a garden hose. But, be sure you are not just adding to the ice or making your Walks slippery. If snow is deep and you have young fruit trees, beware of field mice. They can easily gnaw off the bark beneath the snow and ruin the trees. Fine wire fencing wrapped around the trunk will eliminate any danger — if they can't get under it. And, if it extends well above the snow, it will also offer protection from rabbits, Lacking the screening, tramping down the snow hard for a foot or two around the trunks will often serve as a temporary expedient and keep the mice away for a time. Winter is also a good time to commence pruning your trees and shrubs. Among the fruits apples, pears; plums, quinces, cherries and grapes may be pruned now but delay on peaches, nectarines, almonds, etc. until the late Winter pr early Spring. At that time you can see and cut off any Winter injury which might have taken place. Doctor Talk Since biblical times we have been warned about the adverse effects of over-indulgence. Today, more than ever, we are able to realize the extent of the damage that can be done by several forms of over-indulgence; Over - indulgence of alcoholic beverages presents a very serious problem in business and in domestic relationships in every strata of society. Frequent and consistent consumption has become popularized and fashionable in many circles. Many people competing in a fast pace of life may consume more alcohol than they realize or may become habituate with its use by consistent exposure, however innocently the habit originated. This commonly leads to a gradual increased consumption resulting in a definite pathological condition throughout the organ systems of the body. Another very, common form of over-indulgence involves our eating habits. The American people, as a group, are today the most luxuriously fed and overweight, over indulged people in the world. This naturally comes about as a result of our bountiful supply of all types of foodstuffs. Unfortunately, many of us fall to exercise the proper restraint or selectivity in our dietary habits. Carbohydrates and fats are consumed in excessive quantity, and entirely out of proportion to a proper and normal balance. We should try to become acquainted with the proper relationship which should exist with proteins, fats and carbohydrates, and particularly with their calorie potential. Calories represent a way of measuring the degree of food intake. For any given person there is an ideal or physiological calorie- perday level which allows correct utilization of all the food consumed for that day. When a person exceeds this level there is a superfluous accumulation, and obesity ensues. A good, sensible approach to healthy living Is moderation in all our habits. The body will function normally and efficiently with a reasonable amount of stress and challenge in any phase of living. However, any phase of over -indulgence, eating, drinking, play or work, will inevitably exact its toll. Johnson cancels space glider project. SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON Today we turn our attention., to the personalities around Jesus; these were many and varied, and from them we can' learn many things that will be invaluable to us as we go about the business of our daily living. The subject today for our examination is Mary, the mother of Jesus, and the lesson she teaches us is the acceptance of Jesus Christ as Lord. Mary occupied rather a unique position in Jesus' life. Usually the parent is the one who guides the child. This Mary did, but, because if the fact of Jesus' Messiahship, in due course the circumstances, reversed themselves and the child guided the mother. The Passover Feast was a remony required by the ancient law of Moses. At this time all male Jews were required to atand the religious observances in Jerusalem. 'According to Jewish custom, when a male child reached the age of puberty, he Became a man, with a man's responsibilities. Thus it was that, at the age of twelve, Jesus accompanied his par ents to Jerusalem. (Although women were not bound by the religious requirements of attendance, nevertheless wivs, mothers and daughteers often joined in the Pilgrimage, thus making it a family affair. Jesus, however, was becoming increasingly aware of his responsibilities in answering the call of God, and he therefore matured more raidly, mentally and spiritually, than most boys his age. Thus he became absorbed in the teaching of the Elders in the tem pie, and when the caravan left for the journey home, Jesus was left behind and his-absence was not discovered until one day of the return journey had passed. It is always hard for a mother to realie that her child is growing up and becoming Increasingly more independent of her ministries. It was doubly so for Mary, and there are several instances in the Bible where the inability of the family to fully understand this exceptional child becomes apparent. But Mary was a truly exceptional woman; she had dedicated her life into God's hands when she gave birth to Jesus in the beginning, and although she at times was sorely troubled and perplexed by this Son of hers, she had a great and innate faith in this Child she had nurtured. Therefore, although, upon finding Jesus in the Temple, she could not resist reproving her child for having caused them so much worry and anxiety, she accepted Jesus' rebuke — "How is it that you sought me? Did you not know that I must'be in my Father's house?" — with good grace, and she kept her own counsel. Mary was undergoing a great test; she must slip into the background of her child's life, as that child "increased in stature and wisdom, and in favor with God and man," But Mary measured up to the, test. Mary gave Jesus a home, love, and guidance in his formative years, Jesus, in return, gave to Mary redemption from sin. He opened to her the gates of a new lite, bid her welcome to His Father's house, and to His Father's forgiveness. And he gave her great inner resources of strength to meet th sorrows and disappointments of life even as he gives the same blessings to those of us who belive for Him today. We have much to learn from the relationship of Mary, Mother of Jesus, to Jesus himself, and to God. As parents, we love our children, we suffer over them and for them, we agonize over their disappointments and rejoice in their achievements. We also, in the duly appointed and often mysterious ways of God, have to accept the fact of death, sometimes at a tender age, of a beloved child. But, likely Mary, we can find an inner strength, a quality of endurance beyond human imagination, if we accept the will of God unquestioningly and in Christian faith.

Medical History Davis has survived for six week with kidneys transplanted from 90 pound chimpanzee, doctors reported last week. Davis, has been released from Charity hospital, which is affed with the Tulane university medical school. He has not yet returned to work. The case is believed to be the first successful heterograft (donor and recipient of different species) transplantation involving a human. An earlier such transplantation here involving monkey kidneys, was performed successfully but the patient died in a few days. Until the last few years, orgar transplantation had been possible only, between identical twins, because the body rejects tissue from an unrelated donor. X-ray treatment of the recipient proved successful in several unrelated kidney, transplant cases, but the majority of transplantations failed because of rejection. The key to more success proved to be a discovery that certain cancer drugs could overcome the rejection reaction without paralyzing the body's defenses against disease. Dr. Keith Reemstma of Tulane said both drugs and X-ray treatment were applied in Davis' case. "It appears the rejection mechanism has been overcome," he said. "He is now in good health and the kidneys (of the chimpanzee) are functioning well," Dr. Reemstsma warned, however, that doctors were uncertain how long the chimpanzee kidneys would continue to function. Davis had suffered from chronic nephritis, a destructive process that gradually destroyed kidney function.

Businessmen Urged To Know Bank Loan Limits And Credits Small businessmen should familiarise themselves with bank loan limitations and restrictions when applying for credit, according to a new leaflet announced today by the Small Business Administration. SBA's new publication advises the potential borrower to "thresh out" the terms and conditions of his loans before he signs,. "Ask to see the papers in advance of the loan closing. Legitimate lenders are glad to cooperate," the leaflet explains. Bank Loan Limitations: Living Within Them, is number 158 in SBA's series of Management Aids for small Manufacturers it was prepared for the Agency by Robert K. Landrum, president, Wood County Bank, Parkersburg, West Vieginis, and former chief executive officer of the Business Development Corporation of Kentucky in Louisville. The new pamphlet may be obtained upon request from all SBA offices. Loan limitations and restrictions can actually help the small business owner-manager, the leafler says. "For example, the loan areement protects him on his rate of repayment. Also, attention is called to the importance of keeping the lender informed about changes — good or bad — in the condition of the borrower's business." A good way to look at loan limitations is that they are not there to give you trouble according to SBA's new leaflet. "In fact," it says, "you may be able to use them as a tool for improving managemtnt and thus keeping out of trouble?" Loan limitations are designed to keep the borrower from duplicating mistakes which other companies have made. Pentagon enthusiastic over new rifle. Britain decides to test pay television. Free Man Who Set Blaze Fatal To 5 James Carter, Jr., 33, was released last week from Cook County Jail after he county grand jury refused to dict him for involuntary manlaughter. Carter was held to the grand ury by a coroner's jury after he admitted to police that he accilentally set a fire on Nov. 12 that ook the lives of a father and his our sons. Killed in the fire were Alfred Similton, 25, and his sons Michael, , Anthony, 5, Timthoy 3 and Kenneth 2. Carter said he was watching television in the apartment of a friend, Mrs. Lucille Sims, 46, when he knocked over a candle during an argument. The candle rolled under a bed. he said, and set fire to some trash. The blaze swept the four - story building, trapping Similton and his children in their top - floor apartment. Mrs. Sims was not booked. IT WAS SELF DEFENSE George Wrotten, 32 and O'Neil Isley, 30, cooked up a convincing story to tell the Inland Game and Fish Commission why they killed a golden eagle white hunting ducks. Golden eagles, extremely rare, rest at the protected Blackwater Game refuge, 20 miles to the northeast. The bird, weighing 40 pounds and with a seven - foot wingspread, suddenly swooped down upon the blind, pulled Wrotten's cap off and raked its talons through his hair. Beaten off, he returned, whereupon the men shot him down. When they approached the body, the eagle made still another attempt to claw them. This time the men took a pair of oars and beat the eagle to death. Then they settled down to the matter of shooting ducks'. The Chicago Board of Education last week approved the appointment of the first Negro as an assistant general superintendent, a post which pays $21,000 a year. She is Dr. Virginia P. Lewis, formerly superintendent of school district 20 and ex - principal of Wendell Phillips High school. Dr. Lewis, whose husband, Dr. Robert Lewis, is now Phillips principal, succeeds Dr. Arthur Lehne, who has been promoted to assistant superintendent in charge of coordinating state and federal assistance programs and survey studies. Meanwhile, another Negro educator, Julian D. Drayton, was promoted from principal of Englewood High school to succeed Dr. Lewis as superintendent of district 20. With the promotions of Dr. Lewis and Drayton, Chicago now has three Negroes in top administrative posts. The third is Mrs. Louise Daugherty, who is also a district superintendent. The board approved Dr. Lewis' appointment along with several others proposed by Dr. Benjamin C. Willis, embattled Chicago school superintendent. Several local civil rights organizations have demanded Willis' resignation, claiming his policies contribute toward the continusnce of de facto segregation in the schools. STOP FALLING NOW!
