DONALD G. HILL Army Private First Class Donald G. Hill, 20, son of Mrs. Margret J. Philipski, 5218 N. Amby lane, McHenry was as­ signed as a clerk with the 604th Maintenance company in Viet­ nam, Nov. 5. Time and tide may await no man, but time stands still for a gal of 29. News item: "Mostsuccessful men are married". Most fail­ ures are, too, it has always appeared to us. As people get older, they seem to get either fussier, or mellower. t f k Politicians who try to please everybody remind us of a pup­ py trying to follow five boys home at the same time . Deaths DR.

Time To Spare Don't Let the Bugaboo Frighten You Of all the fictitious monsters that haunt people of retirement age, the "bugaboo" is probably the worst. More explicitly -- the "over sixty bugaboo." This particular monster lies in wait at employment agencies, in offices, and wher­ ever else jobs are open but minds are closed, shut fast by the myth that men and women over sixty are not good pros­ pects regardless of their qualifications. I owe the phrase "over sixty bugaboo" to Robert (5. Snelling. That's a good sign in itself. He's the head of Snelling and Snelling, which places more individuals in more jobs than any other agency. This organization has peo­ ple over sixty on its staff. It places people over sixty with businesses of all types. So, when the boss talks about the "over sixty bugaboo," he knows what he is talking about. Anyone our age ought to listen. If we aren't looking for jobs ourselves, we certainly know, or know about, those who are. Some need employment to boost the family budget. Others want to make profitable use ofc their spare time. Still others would like to help out where they might be useful. Too often, age alone causes the applicant to be rejected. And the reasons, as Robert O. Snelling points out, too often are simply phony. Experience has proven that seniors are not unpunctual, that they do not ride the sick book, and that their work is not below the standards ap­ plicable to younger personnel. It.has also proven that they are more reliable, more under­ standing, less given to com­ plaints or insubordination. So it's no act of charity when bosses put older people on their payrolls. They can ex­ p e c t v a l u e f o r t h e i r m o n e y . More than one large corpora­ tion and small business is p r o f i t i n g f r o m a g r o w i n g awareness of this fact. Oscar Wilde coined the p h r a s e " a m o n s t e r w i t h o u t being a myth, which is rather ynfctir." That phrase would seem to cover the "over sixty bugaboo" insofar as it is still a reality, affecting the behavior of employers^ But it's rapidly becoming an exploded myth. You and Your Lawyer /Ml of us need the services of a lawyer at some point in our lives--and one of the most important of these times is when we retire. How we handle our affairs is apt to have a great deal to do with our enjoyment of the years ahead. I sually there are a number of hard decisions to make. Whether to sell the family mansion and move to a cot­ tage. How to arrange income to best advantage. Should in­ surance policies be revised? And what about a will? Inevitably you'll be consult­ ing experts in these matters, and somewhere along thejine you're sure to need a lawyer. So if you don't already have a good lawyer, or if you've decided to move to a new part of the country, it's only sensible to think about finding one. The best way to do this is not to pick up the phone book and choose a name at random. There are institutions such as your State Bar As­ sociation, the Lawyer's Refer­ ral Service or the Legal Aid Society, all of which can give you advice. Your banker is another possible source of in­ formation. So is your labor union or alumni association. Once you've found your lawyer, give him your confi­ dence. If you don't, you'll get less than the service you need. With the best will in the world he can't operate successfully unless he knows all the facts. Whatever you tell him is privileged under the law, and he cannot be forced to disclose t h i s i n f o r m a t i o n t o a n y o n e . Xo honest lawyer would ever do so. Look upon your lawyer as y<j)u do your doctor. You wouldn't dream of telling your doctor how to take out your appendix. So when your law­ yer I is presenting a case on youi^ behalf, follow his advice. He knows what he's doing and a f t e r a l l x t h a t ' s w h a t y o u ' r e paying him for. Nature's Tranquilizers I came across an interesting tax deductible the other day, not one you'd readily think of, and not one liable to save you much money either -- but in­ teresting all the same. Noticed it in an Internal Revenue Service document entitled "Tax Benefits for Older Americans." It seems that, if your doctor prescribes alcohol in small TUES., NOV.. 25, 1969 - PLA!NDEALER - amounts tor any ailment (two ounces of whisky twice daily is what a friend of mine, who suffers from angina pains, must take), then it's considered a deductible expense. But only, I hasten to add, if it's been p r e s c r i b e d s o l e l y f o r t h i s purpose. Anyway, this information got me to thinking about alcohol in general: the fact that it has many uses, medicinal and otherwise, that tend to be forgotten or despised, simply because it's so often abused. The medical world is very alive to the helpful effects of alcohol and is experimenting all the time to find out/more about them. I In particular wine and beer a r e o f t e n p r e s c r i b e d a s m i l d tranquilizers. (And in fact re­ searchers at the University of Missouri have discovered that it's not just the alcoholic con­ tent of these beverages t h a f calms our ragged nerves. Both contain a natural sedative called ellegic acid, found only in plants.) Many doctors believe they cap be especially helpful to us seniors. Give us a lift, make us less cantankerous maybe, and let us forget our aches and pains, temporarily at least. ( I f c o u r s e , t h i s a p p r o v a l d e ­ pends on how such beverages are used. Some people dislike the very idea and, therefore, wouldn't derive much benefit f r o m d r i n k i n g t h e m . O t h e r s have alcoholic tendencies, or allergies, or ailments thatcould be aggravated by alcohol. Still others are obliged to take pre­ scribed drugs for their dis­ o r d e r s , a n d u s u a l l y w i n e a n d drugs don't mix. A s i n m o s t t h i n g s m o d e r a ­ tion is the key word. And it's best to sip along with a meal o r s n a c k . W e i g h t - w a t c h e r s should be careful too, but most calories in alcohol are probabiy used up immediately, according to the latest thinking, so moderate amounts shouldn't overtip the scales. Medicos are also finding out that wine and beer can be used t o g o o d e f f e c t o n t e d i o u s s o d i u m - r e s t r i c t e d d i e t s . A n d everyone, even those who dis­ approve on principle, can enjoy the pleasure, of food cooked in wine or beer, whose alcoholic characteristics disappear in the cooking. There's hardly a dish that isn't improved by a touch of wine -- from soup to nuts. So what does all this boil down to? The simple fact that, if we enjoy it, and do not-suffer from any inhibiting ailment; a little beer or wine will do us no harm. On the contrary, it may do us a lot of good.
