In one book I took out with the title of "Forever More" I found a $100 bill between the pages. My husband says I don't have to tell anybody about it and that it is mine. My conscience tells me that I should tell the library. Will the library keep the money if they can't find the owner, or will it be returned to me?" -- Estelle K. A. -- Estelle's husband thinks that finders ought to be keepers. However, that is not the law in this case. I asked my lawyer. He said the $100 bill belongs to the person who slipped it into the book, that Estelle should notify the library. She should not reveal the denomination of the banknote, but ask the library to attempt to locate the owner who may identify the incident by replaying with the exact denomination of the bill. Obviously, the person who put the bill in the book did not intend to abandon it. Possibly he-she forgot it had been placed there and may even right now be attempting to recollect where the bill had safe been placed -- for keeping, perhaps. The money does not belong to the library. If the library goes through its records and contacts past borrowers of the book, it may find the rightful, but forgetful owner. The library may have to send notices out to as many as 30 or 40 or more people. If the first owner is not found within six months, then Estelle becomes the owner. Q. -- "I am 71 and collecting on my own Social Security account. My first husband, whom I divorced, never remarried before he died. I married again and my present husband is also on S.S. Can I collect on my first husband's Social Security? If so, would I receive a greater amount than I am now receiving on my S.S.?" -- Pearl F. A. -- If Pearl were a widow, she could receive benefits from her first husband. She would receive an amount that is the larger of the two entitlements -- her own benefit or her first husband's benefit. However, because she is divorced from her first husband, she is not P.W.TINDALL HEATING, INC.

Q. -- "I do not read your column in the Wenatchee World, but see it when my neighbor gives it to me for papering down my kennels. So I don't always see it. "I am a veterinarian and use large supplies of old newspapers in the dog runs. What do you think of sup­ plementing diets with nutrition aids?" ~ Dr. June K. A. -- 1 c&anoi i'evjommend diet supplements. However, I can recommend that Dr. June subscribe to the World. It is just as good a newspaper, if not better, than the one she does sub­ scribe to I shudder to think that Dr. June only reads my column when she is preparing to cover the floor of the kennels. Q. -- "Why does a wife get less than half her husband's Social Security when he retires at age 62? My husband gets $483.80 and I get $225.30. If he had waited to retire at 65, his monthly check would be $600.50 and mine would be $300.30. I thought a wife got half of what the husband gets, even if he retires at 62." -- D.A.B. A. -- The amount a wife receives is proportionate. It depends on her age. D.A.B. obviously is not 65 or more. If she were, she would receive half, even if her husband retired at 62. Q. -- "I am in a nursing home with a broken right leg. It is in a cast for the second time because the first time it didn't heal. After my husband's death this year, I had considerable savings in banks. My nephew suggested that I let this lawyer have power of at­ torney over my finances. I gave it to him, but to whom is the attorney responsible, my nephew or me? I have never been told how much I have. The attorney wanted to change the setup of my savings so, he said, I would have more income. But he doesn't answer my letters to tell me the facts about my money. What should I do? Where should I go for help?" -- Rose C. K. A. -- Rose has cause for worry. It is strange she has no response to her letters to the attorney. She can get quick action, however. Rose should write letters to her attorney, to her nephew, and to the bar association of her state. She can get the address of the bar association from the phone book. She should state the facts in each letter. She is certain to get an ac­ counting very soon if she sends the letters. She then might do best to ask the probate court, or another judicial division, to set up a new power of attorney, subject to the court's jurisdiction. While all may be all right with Rose's finances, it is wise for her (and others) to be cautious in giving a power of attorney to a lawyer who is not well known to her. Some lawyers have been known to not always act in perfectly good faith when handling funds of in­ capacitated and aging clients.
