MRS. JOHN DALE COATES ...the former Iva Jean Massey New Food Stamp Rules B enefit Elderly And Disabled People New food stamp rules to help households containing elderly or disabled members will go into effect on Jan. 1, 1980. The new rules provide special medical and shelter deductions for households aoo taining persons who are aged 00 or older, or who receive Supplemental Security In come (SSI) or disability payments under the Social Security Act. Under the new rules, households can deduct from their incomes the amount by which medical costs incurred by such elderly and disabled persons exceed $35 a month, if these expenses are not reim bursable. The medical ex penses of other household members are not deductible. Also, households containing such persons can deduct the full amount by which their shelter costs exceed one-half of their adjusted income. For all other households, the excess shelter deduction re mains limited to a fixed amount. Allowable shelter costs include rent and mor tgage payments, utility bills, property taxes and insurance on a home. Food stamp eligibility and benefits are based largely on household size and net monthly income after deductions will help some households qualify for food stamps and will mean ex tra benefits for some households now participating. The deductions were authorized by Congress in response to concerns that the elderly and disabled had been particulary hard hit by the tightened eligibility rules of -the Food Stamp Act of 1977, wiich eliminated the medical deduction allowed by the 1964 ACT and placed a limit on the The Ramseys Are Given A Shower [ household shower given for Mr and Wayne Ramsey at Seminary Baptist nnexat7p.m. Dec. ft. will be given by > help replace some of it in an unfor > help is invited amount of shelter expenses households could deduct.

SART Presents Play On Emily Dickinson The Southern Appalachian Repertory Theatre will pre sent The Belle of Amherst Dec. 15 at the Hot Springs Elementary School. Curtain time is 8 p.m. for this delightful one-woman show which so vividly depicts the warmth and humanity of the life of the American poet, Emily Dickinson. Actress Susan King will be playing the part of Miss Dickinson as the somewhat shy, humorous, witty and vivacious young woman that she was. Emily Dickinson was one of the worid'smasters of the short lyric poem. The sub jects of her poems, expressed in intimate, domestic figures of speech include love, death and nature. Playwright William Luce has subtly woven dramatically-workable anec dotes, poems and excerpts from Emily's letters in a con versational manner. The resulting work is a love affair with language and a celebra tion of all that is beautiful and poignant in life. Susan King, a native of Georgia, was graduated from Mars Hill College in 1976. While there, she was honored as Best Actress of the Year and is listed among Who's Who in American Colleges and Unviersities.
