l C I"' by vyjan diristexiBaxi DEEDS News Items this week from Anson, Wlkes, Burke, Columbus, Orange and Perquimiins coun ties. LIVE VISUAL Whether intentional or unin tentional, there’s nothing like a live visual to get the point a- cross, reports Mrs. Nancy I. Lan- den, assistant home economics extension agent, Anson’ Cbunty. She cites this example: 4-H’ers attending camp at Swannanoa were listening to a lecture about snakes, poisoncnis and non-poisonous, and how to distinguish between them. Hav ing heard the hog-nosed snake described, an eleven-year-old boy raised his hand and, pointing several feet away, ask^, “like that one crawlinig' out mere?” Amazed, the instructor looked and answered, “Why yes, just like that one!” The snake wtis captured and remtiined the topic of conversation for the day.

Arndt, home eco nomics extension "agent. When asked what she’d learned, one woman said, “We came to the -conelusdon there are things about ourselves and others we don’t like.

Yon And Sodal Secority Q—How can I determine the value of my Savings Bonds, many of which were purchased at least 20 years ago? A—Bond tellers at banks and many savings and loan organiza tions will be glad to assist you. However, by sending 15 cents (in cash) to the Superintendent of Documents, Government Print ing Office, Washington, D. C. 20402, you can obtain a Table of Redemption Values, which will give the current value of any Series E Bond you own. These tables are issued eveiy six months, and the current edition covers the period from July through December, 1966. Q—How many Savings Bonds are still being held by dtizens, dating back to the start of the Bond Program in 1941? A—There is no accurate way of determining the actual num- 'ter of such Bonds still being held. The dollar volume of Series E and H Bonds outstanding, how ever, totals almost 50 billion dol lars. Bonds dedeemed during the same period totaled in excess of 100 billion dollars, those funds being used to serve the many needs of the Bond owners. Q—How many Savings Bonds are sold each year and what are the most popular denominations? A—In the calendar year 1965, 100,657,000 individual Bonds were sold. Recent figures show that almost 70 percent of all Savings Bonds sold are in the $254200 range, those imost commonly bought by Payroll Savers. a “ '»>• lrid.m.rk ,1 P„„„„ Comftn, protection KINGS MOUNTAIN HERALD, KINGS MOUNTAIN, N.
