Richard J. Mueller, 2526 by Carl Riblet Jr. Q. "Is it possible for me to collect Social Security benefits from my former husband's account before he is old enough to start drawing it? We were married 32 years before we were divorced. He is 60.1 am 66. How can I find out how much I am entitled to if I can collect?" ~ Mary C.D. A. No Social Security benefits that are not sup­ plementary or disability income are paid to those who have not yet reached the earliest retirement age. Mary would do best to ask directly of the local SS office. All she has to do is telephone. Q. "When I was a child in 1920 our school room had a painting of Sir Galahad on a horse. A boy stood below, looking up at the knight. The inscription on the painting was "My strength is as the strength of 10 because my heart is pure.' The school has since burned down. No one I have talked to who is in education today knows of the picture. I have written and called various galleries to no avail. Can you help me find where the picture is located? It means a lot to me." - Frank J.B. A Frank could visit a gallery - any gallery - in his city and obtain a list and the addresses of art museums in various eastern cities - Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, Toledo, Cleveland, Detroit, Baltimore, Washington, D C., New York City and Boston. Then he could write to each museum, asking for information on the painting, or print The task is relatively easy and the result is fairly certain he will learn where there may be a copy. If anybody out there knows, please write to this column with the in­ formation Q "I wonder if the in­ surance we have to sup­ plement Medicare can be depended on. Could you tell us if we send you the name of the company? It would make us feel more secure." -- Mrs. M.E.S. A. I cannot stick out my neck and approve or disapprove any single in­ surance company on a basis of dependability. If Mrs. M.E.S., or anybody else, will send 25 cents and a self- addressed, stamped, long envelope, we will send her a list of reliable companies and other information about supplementary insurance. Q. "I have noticed, as a physician, that many of your readers have addressed questions to you on the problem of hearing loss. There seems to be general c o n f u s i o n , m i s u n ­ derstanding, and ignorance prevailing on the affliction which affects so many of all ages. Before purchasing a hearing aid, I would advise your readers to send for a free, informational booklet w i t h s e l f - a d d r e s s e d , stamped envelope to P.O. Box 797, Lake Oswego, Ore., 97034." -- Dr. Derek S.L. Q. "In 1936, a friend and his wife saw a play in New York in which an actress had the name of 'Janis.' When my daughter was born the next month, these friends suggested we name her Janis. Which we did. In school her teachers and others called her 'Janice' and ignored her real name. So we started calling her Jan.' Could you tell us the name of the play and the actors in it so that we can learn whether the name 'Janis' is correct?" - Sara L.N. A. No reference work on my book shelves gives me a clue to help answer Sara's inquiry. The only "Janis" I can find that is connected with the stage is the name "Elsie Janis," who was a noted American actress in the first half of this century. The name "Janis" is the surname of many Americans, some of Greek descent. Sara has spelled it correctly. Q. "My Social Security problems are apparently unsolvable. I have had correspondence and talks with representatives of the SS office in Allentown and Philadelphia. I retired at age 62. Nobody can decide how much I should receive. I wrote to my congressman, to Senator Schweiker before he was head of the HEW, and to others. It's still a mess. Do you know of anyone who can help me straighten it out?" - Catherine K. A. Catherine can telephone the toll free number 1-800- 431-2804 for information from the National organization of Social S e c u r i t y C l a i m a n t s Representatives. They may refer her to one of their members in her area who will then decide whether he- she can help her. Q. "Many times in the past years since I turned 60, I have felt cheated by business firms who will sell you anything for as much as they can get and to h-- with quality. I feel that we older people are just sitting on a pole ready to be shot at by people who sell inferior products. Is there anything we can do about it?" - Maxie B. A. There are many ways to try to stop the cheaters Always comparison shop. Watch the newspaper ad­ vertisements. Buy generic brands of medicine. Use coupons and rebates to purchase items like towels and sheets. And holler like the devil at the seller when you are convinced you have been cheated. An elder who has a complaint should start at the retail level and then, if no satisfaction is obtained, send a letter to the company's chairman of the board. He usua/Iy doesn't get many complaints, and he's not crazy about getting those. He will answer a letter of complaint, in most cases. The idea is to complain, holler, and write letters and don't give in, Q. "I know that under the law, when I reach 72, my earnings won't affect my monthly Social Security retirement payments. But if I work after 72, will I still have to pay Social Security taxes on my earnings?" - Peter F. A. Yes, as long as Peter has earnings from em­ ployment or self- employment that are covered by Social Security, he must pay SS taxes -- no matter how old he is. Write to Carl Riblet Jr., w i t h s e l f - a d d r e s s e d , stamped envelope at Box 40757, Tucson, Ariz. 85717, if you are seeking the answer to a specific question on the problems of aging.

In February of this year the department responded to a call for rescue after a snowmobile went through the ice on the Fox river. Responding from her home near the scene, she found Ken Hillman, a passenger on the vehicle, had made his way to the edge of the ice but found the current too strong for him to aid his friend. Ms. Komarchuk helped pull Hillman to safety. At this point, she and Jerry Myatt, a resident at the scene, entered a rowboat to attempt to aid the driver of the snowmobile. Finding his helmet just under the water, she was able to lift his head above the water level and held that position until appropriate and safe rescue techniques could be implemented. Later, she was treated for exposure and frostbite. The young woman joined the department in June of 1978. She is a certified EMT- A as well as a Level 11 certified fire fighter. Her duties within the department include the training of fire personnel and serving as engineer in maintaining and operating the fire vehicles. a Robin s Roost miniatures and dollhouses Quality Dollhouses From $38-$2,000 'Building & Electrical Supplies •Dolls and Dollhouse Families •Furniture for Children •Fine Miniatures for Adult Collectors Shop Where The Selection Is Best! 131 Center Street Grayslake, Illinois (312)223-4455 CALL FOR HOLIDAY HOURS DISCOVER EASY WAYS TO WRAP UP THE HOLIDAY SEASON After the presents are all selected, put the finishing touch on your holiday gifts with our gift wrapping service, sponsored by the Newcomers Club of Crystal Lake.
