PAGE 3-PLAINDEALER-WEDNESDA>, FEBRUARY 24, 1971 s Church Women United Plan World Prayer Day SOCIAL SECURITY Church Women United in the McHenry area will celebrate World Day of Prayer Friday, March 5, at the First Baptist church of McHenry. The pro­ gram will start at 9:30 a.m. when a nursery will be avail­ able for small children. On this day church women in 25,000 communities in the U.S.A. will unite their pray­ ers with women in 155 coun­ tries on six continents to af­ firm faith, hope and love in facing issues and the needs of today and tomorrow. As women all over the world gather in worship on World Day of Prayer, they will be af­ firming that "New Life A- waits!" The year 1971 will be the eighty-fourth year of the ev­ er-widening celebration of the World Day of Prayer. On this day, the first Friday in March, women of many denominations --Protestant, Catholic and Or- thodox-and of many races and languages, seek to make visi­ ble their unity in Christ and to share in an offering that will bring hope and aid to thous­ ands around the globe. World Day of Prayer pro­ vides an occasion for partici­ pation in a nation-wide offering committed to helping others through Intercontinental Mis­ sion on six continents. Some of the people who will be touch­ ed by these continuing programs this year are: People on va­ cation and older people em­ ployed in national parks through year 'round ministry by early- retired ministers, experimen­ tal internships, new Christian education materials; interna­ tional students in many edu­ cational institutions overseas; women leaders abroad who can help bridge international gaps through special training pro­ grams and internships; women in cities engaged in experi­ mental ministries in education, community organization, tech­ nology and ecology; rural Christian women overseas who will study nutrition, home- making, and related subjects. Further use of the World Day of Prayer offering will be to enable migrant farm workers to send representatives to pol­ icy-making meetings and aid in crises and emergencies; to aid American Indians and Spanish- speaking people to achieve new dignity through community ac­ tion in both urban and rural situations; to help Mexican wo­ men in border cities, without adequate means to support themselves and live with dig­ nity, to start an industry; to support a woman worker to pro­ vide public health and family service for women and chil­ dren in Freedom City, Miss. Q. I lost my Social Security card some years ago. Can I get a new one? A. Yes, phone or write to your nearest Social Security office and they will send you the proper form to complete so that jyou can receive a new card with the same number you had previously. Q. I am a woman getting married in March. Must I change my name on my Social Security card? ; A. Yes, phone or write your neare§t Social Security office for & form that can be com­ pleted by you, which will chan­ ge your name on your Social Security records. Church Women United will celebrate the creative steward­ ship of the offerings in con­ tinuous commitment to families in Dominica and the Windward Islands for the building of new dwellings through self-help projects; theological students and Christian teachers attend­ ing an interdenominational seminary in Djakarta and in need of new women's dormi­ tory furnishings; children in Africa and Asia who desper­ ately need reading material and the motivation to keep learning. Funds from this year's offer­ ings will continue to help print "80 miles of children's books" and subsidize children's and women's magazines in Korea, Argentina, Mexico, and India. Q. Three weeks ago, a man was at our house asking ques­ tions about the neighbors. He said he was from the Social Security office, but I just na­ turally wondered 'about it later on. What could I have done? A. A representative from the Social Sectirity office will nev­ er oe offended if you ask to see his or her identification. Q. I live out in the country and do not like to drive into the city to the Social Security office. My letter writing is poor. Could you send someone to see me? T am not disabled. A. Phone your nearest So­ cial Security office, perhaps your question can be answered over the phone. If not, con­ tact the postmaster in your town. He has a record of places near you visited regularly by a Social Security representa­ tive. Q. What happens to all the Social Security tax money paid in when a person dies and leaves no wife, children, or parents? Is there a refund to other rel­ atives, like sisters and broth­ ers? A. There is no refund. There may, however, be a lump-sum death payment made to the per­ son who paid the burial expen- ses. This amount ranges from $192 to $255 and is paid only once. Q. Where can I find out about my total earnings since Social Security started? A. Write, phone, or visit your nearest Social Security office, and they will give you the nec­ essary form to complete to check your earnings record. Q. How old must a person be before he can get a Social Security number? A. There is no age limit. However, do not get a Social Security card unless there is an immediate need for a num­ ber. Q. I have opened my retail business and expect to hire two people this month. How do I re­ port their wages? How much money do I hold out of their salaries? A. You need an employer's identification number, this is different from a Social Secur­ ity number. Contact the Social Security office or the Direc­ tor of Internal Revenue for the necessary application forms. After this is completed, addi­ tional reporting instructions will be sent to you. Do not delay making this application. M WE WANT MORE L O C A L N E W S . . . -c-Tell Us Like It Is--- And Often! NOTICE!

Freund , McHenry, is shown admiring the beautiful African lily which stands 57 inches high in the window of her home. The bloom is a bright red and shines forth from a plant which requires neither dirt nor water. Miss Freund, who is confined to a wheel chair, takes special pride in her many plants, which provide a favorite hobby. Her family and friends agree that, indeed, she does have a "green thumb" which seems to make her 1 flowers a source of unusual beauty.
