It has been estimated that out* 750.000 old people in the lted States may qualify for in- Mice payments uider this luse. Many aged persons may claim benefits even though have not been employed long « ough to qualify nndrr the former to quirements. Mr. Barnett said |t this would affect a considerk le namtwr of aged nprsons in tl Is area who had oncc filc-J claims f( r poolal ppouritv benefits but id not at that time been able to I iallfv.

Thomaaft, FORBID FARfcl WWOORR]K FOR PUPILS D>UURRIINN<G FALL SCHOOL HOURS Children employed in agriculture will be interested in the protection afforded through amendments to the Federal Fair Labor Standards Act. With the opening of school, many children are expected to be taken out of their classrooms to help with the fall farm work, according to Thomas O'Malley, regional director of the U.S. Department cf Labor's Wage-and- Hour and Public Contracts division. He added that if the farm produces goods for interstate commerce. prospective farmer-employers should bear in mind that the law regarding employment has been changed. Prior to Jan. 2.r>, when the amendments became effective, employment of such children on farms was permitted when they were not legally required to attend school. Under the amended law. however, children under 16 may not be employed in agriculture during the hours when school is in session in the district where they are living. The act would not prevent employment of such minors during school vacations, after school hours or. on holidays. Independence is the cornerstone •pen which this country was built. And thrift Is the cornerstone upon which Americans are building future financial independence. That cornerstone provides the slogan for thr U. S. Savings Bonds Campaign. Ma> 15-July 4, which is: "Save For You: Independence." Everyone has samething to save for, whether it be for a heme, for retirement, to educate yopr children, or for a glorious .vacation trip.

All pledged their services as motor car drivers and social welfare aides Following a training course of ten hours, during which time they were informed of their duties, the latter group became eligible for active service. Their work will include making home visits and being on duty at the Red Cross office for handling telephone calls and general information, along with other duties. ' Among those who volunteered were Mrs. Sarah Anne Corbfett of McHenry and Mrs. Olive Tallman and Mrs, Dorothy McEachren of Wonder Lake. The Red Cross has announced its acceptance of the sponsorship of planning for shelter in case of disaster and a survey is now being prepared cf all buildings in which forty or more persons might be housed. Only two of the five major, cities in the county, Woodstock and Harvard ' have completed their surveys. * Rt>y Kent of McHenry is disaster chairman for . the entire county. Together with the above is a l»!an for first aid instruction. Giving authorized instruction presents a problem to the R°d Cross: therefore, if any persons have had standard and advanced training and are willing to become instructors, they are urged to contact the county chapter office.
