I <«? by Gerry Johnson Hardest Worker In The Company -- At 80 Ask any of 80-year-old Barbara Savelsberg's fellow employees--they'll all tell you she's one of the hard­ est workers in the company. The company is a drug­ store chain in the Washing­ ton, D.C. area, which Mrs. Savelsberg has worked for since 1945. Before that she worked for a Washington hotel and for the govern­ ment. "Actually, I was still working for the government when I went to work for Drug Fair," Mrs. Savelsberg told a writer from The Na­ tional Council on the Ag­ ing. "The man who inter­ viewed me wanted to know how I was going to hold down two jobs. I said, 'you won't know until you try me.' Before long I was working 96 hours a week-- half for the government and half for Drug Fair." A native of Pittsburgh, Mrs. Savelsberg's husband died shortly before World War I, leaving her with two children to raise. In the early 40's she moved to Arlington, Virginia, which is right across the PcHomac River from Washington. Mrs. Salvesberg acquired her taste for hard work as a young girl, helping her mother run the family gro­ cery store when she was 12 years old. That's why it never occurred to her not to have two jobs. "I wasn't making enough to support my family on my government job," Mrs. Sal­ vesberg said. "That's why I went out and got another job. That's the way I was raised." She works so hard that the manager of the store where she works says, "I have to chase her out of here at night." But why, after all these years, does she continue to work as hard as she did when sh< had a family to raise? "Money!" she replied. "You can't live on a fixed income these days. Besides, I don't think people should sit home in a rocker whether they retire or not. I think the more active you are the better off you are." * * * RESIDENTS OF a nurs­ ing home in Chattanooga, Tennessee, tutor 4th, 5th and 6th graders in math and reading.

The number of stops since serv­ ice was started in 1971 has increased from 3 to 17. Along with selling stamps, the service includes regis­ tered - and certified mail service and the acceptance of cards, letters and pack­ ages for deposit in the mail. * * » SOCIAL SECURITY re^ cipients who continue 'to Ivork should remember that the rules have been changed regarding income. The monthly earnings test has been completely eliminated and replaced by an annual income limit. . Basically, persons 65 and over can earn up to $4,000 in calendar year 1978 without any loss of benefits. That exemption will rise to $4,500 in 1979 and will continue to rise $500 a year through 1982. For every two dollars earned over the exemption limit, one dollar in Social Security benefits will be lost. To get more in­ formation on the new rules, call your local Social Secu­ rity office and ask for the booklet, "How Rece Changes in Social Security Affect You" (HEW Publi­ cation number: 78-10328). jiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiimiiimiiiiiiiiiiuimiiMi POLICE TICKETS!

PAGE 3 - PLAINDEALER - FRIDAY. JANUARY 19. • t /4 fatter (f&nt k&M, Kiss the scar James Van Der Zee, a noted photographer, keeps a youthful photo of his wife displayed in his apartment. Of this photo he says, "When she was young, I loved her because she was beautiful. When she got old, I loved her because 1 knew her." I like that. Engaged couples often spend hours picking out crystal and china and sterling. The best wedding gift, though, is advice like this: "Marriage demands your ^ best. It 's not a lark. But if you sincerely seek to know each other, to share each other's deepesttffeelings and fears and longings, your respect for each other will grow. And when the youthful photos have faded, this understanding and compassion for eachTo.ther will ,ee you through the storms." 1 have a friend who, as a boy, was scarred by osteomyelitis. After he was e«gaged, he felt in all fairness he should discuss this with his fiancee. When he showed her a scar on his leg, she said nothing. She simp­ ly kissed it. Some scars are apparent in courtship. Some never surface until years later. Love kisses the scars, whenever they appear. This is the alternative to trading in lor a newer model. In these lines from Hiawatha, you may disagree with Henry W. Longfellow's comments about women "obeying." But his last line is the jewel: As unto the bow the cord is, So unto the man is woman; Though she bends him, she obeys him, Though she draws him, yet she follows; Useless each without the other! R.
