KNOW YOUR SOGUt SECURITY P. E. Bettendorf, representative of the Social Security Ad ministration, is in Edenton every Thursday at the North Cato. Una Employment Security Commission in Citizens Bank Building. r mnon. _<i iW" ' n«-|~ i~ -»~i i~ ■ 1 l~ —~ ~TI It is of significance that prac-j tically every child born in the United States nowadays has the protection of social security insur ance. Before the 1956 amend ments to the law, this protection was provided only for unmarried children under age 18 when fami ly income was lost or reduced due to the retirement or death of the supporting parent. Effective January, 1957 monthly social se-, curity benefits became payable to children in the same circumstanc es if they become disabled before age 18 and remain disabled. They, too, have the comfort of re ceiving the financial support pro vided by the parent’s work under social security. It is important that there be no delay in filing an application for disabled child’s benefits. Such benefits can be paid retroactive ly for no more than 12 months. 1 Thus, a disabled child who was eligible for these benefits in Jan-! uary, 1957 now will lose a month’s benefit for each month there is a delay in filing, appli-! cation. If able to hand'e his own affairs, the child should file the application himself; otherwise, i the parent or other person who is responsible for the child should file for him. There are certain requirements which must be met before pay ments may be made to a disabled child. The requirements are: 1) the child must have been disabled before age 18 with an impair ment which still continues, (2) the child must be unmarried, (3) the child must be dependent upon the supporting parent who is en titled to old-age insurance bene fits, or, have been dependent UDon a parent who died after 1939 after working long enough under social security to be insur ed and. (41 an application for dis abled child’s benefits must be filed. To qualify for disabled child’s benefits, the child does not have to be completely helnless but he mu£t have a disability which is so severe that in the words of the law, it makes him unable to VOTE FOR J.

The extent of the disabling condition must be proven by medical evidence. The proper medical forms to obtain this evidence are provided by so cial security offices when appli cation is filed. The meciical evidence shows severity of the disabled child’s condition. Then other factors, such a s the kinds of work the child has done in the past, his education, his training, and other abilities are evaluated by a team of doctors and other trained peo ple to see whether his overall con dition keeps him from doing sub stantial gainful work. , The child’s dependency upon i the parent must be proven.

Employment Office Ureres Hiring Os Young Workers At this time each year, the Em ployment Security Office has' available a large number of j young persons registered for work in the Edenton area, states Mil ton E. Bass, Edenton Office Man ager. These young people-are just out of high school, or home for the summer vacation from col leges. Some of the high school graduates who have decided not to continue their education are available for regular work, while others are available for the sum mer only. It is urged that employers who have vacancies to fill, to consid er these young people, who, while at their age do not have a great deal of experience, nevertheless, can offer youthful energy and are anxious to learn. The Employ ment Office has completed apti tude testing in the schools and has discovered many aptitudes in these young people that are very promising to employers. These aptitudes cover a wide range and include office work and mechani cal or manipulative work, Mr. Bass stated. The unfortunate trend in past years, however, has been for high school graduates to leave the area after an unsuccessful attempt to find work. This trend should be checked to all extent possible by SHOPPING FOR A WASHER? BEFORE YOU BUY...

Y. L. ... ; Agent Advises j Liming Os Soil 1 Chowan County Agent C. W. Overman says that many of the soils in Chowan County need lime. He also points out the only way you can tell whether your soil needs lime is to have a soil test made. Mr. Overman says that plants growing in the soil remove cal cium and leave hydrogen in its place which makes the soil acid. In addition, calcium is lost by leaching. Therefore, over a pe riod of years, the soil can be come very acid. Agent Overman points out that there are several reasons acid soils should be limed. As the soil becomes acid certain ele ments such as aluminum become soluble and if present in too large amounts are toxic to plants. By liming acid soils these toxic sub stances are neutralized. If a soil is very acid there may not be enough calcium and magnesium present for good plant growth. Adding dolomitic lime to an acid soil provides calcium and mag nesium. It also has been found that if the soil is very acid plants often don’t get enough phosphor ous. By liming the soil, phos phorous availability is increased. Soils also contain many bac teria and micro-organisms which are beneficial to plant growth. These organises grow best when the soil is not too acid.. Mr. Overman says that only by getting your soil tested you can find out whether you need lime and if you need it how much to apply. Your County Agricultural Offices have soil containers, mail-! ing boxes and information sheets available free for your use. Mobile Recruiting Trailer In Edenton Master Sergeant Aubrey E.
