If you had a $20,000 life in surance policy and wanted to be sure that your wife would re ceive this money in case of your death, would you neglect paying the premiums? Os course you wouldn’t. Do you always com pare your own check hook with your bank's records when youj receive your monthly statement, from the bank Here again, the answer is obvious. Banks rarely make mistakes, but it is still good business to check the rec ords and correct any errors. But, \ What About Your Social Securi-! ty? I The value of your social se-J curity account may be worth more than your bank deposits and life insurance combined. | djhc exact value depends on sev eral things—your annual earn ings. how long you have worked,, the dependents in your family,! etc. But for some of you, this 1 account may be worth SIO,OOO, $20,000. or even $40,000 to you I and your family in potential dis-l ability.- old-age. or survivor benefits. This kind of money j is worth protecting, isn’t it? If you are a man born after; 1905. or a woman born after 1908. you will need 10 years of work under social security to 1 Th I aTTaT | the Law JH By ROBERT E. LEE (For th* N. C.

The son, while carelessly and negligently operat ing the automobile, injures Sam Black. May Black recover from Joe White a judgment for the personal injuries he has sus tained? Yes. In North Carolina and a limited number of other states there has been adopted what is known as the "family purpose doctrine" in respect to automo biles. \ Under this doctrine, the own er of an automobile, which is furnished to the members of the owner’s family for their con venience and pleasure, is held li able for the negligent acts of any member of the family who might be driving it for pleasure with the consent, express or im plied, of such owner. The rela-| tionship created is that of prin- • cipal and agent existing between the owner of the family auto mobile and the member of hist family driving it By placing: the automobile at the disposal of! the family, the owner makes the' pleasure of the family his affair, and business. Sam Black should be able to recover damages from either Joe White or his son. A minor child is liable for the personal injuries!

All your re [ tirement benefits might be lost, j Since you don’t want this to hap pen, here are three simple steps ! to protect your social security j account: 1. If you work for someone else, be sure your employer has i a correct record of your name, social security number, and that |he deducts your social security I tax from your paychecks. 2. If you work for yourself, . be sure your accountant includes , a report of your self-employment income on your annual income ta return: and that he shows your correct name, social seeuri ty number, and amount of your profits on Schedule SE attached to that return. ! 3. At least once every three years, write to the Social Se curity Administration for a state ment of your earnings. A spe cial post card form for this pur pose may be secured from any | district office of the Social Se curity Administration. Then, if the report fails to agree with your records, contact your near est social security district office 1 to correct the error. he negligently causes another. The son is liable in this case because he is the actual wrong doer. The father is liable be cause it was his agent that caused the injury. Bill Brown permits his eigh teen year-old son to use the family car for the purpose of attending a football game in Virginia. If the son negligently injures Tom Grey While driving the automobile in Virginia, could Tom Grey recover damages from Bill Brown? No. Virginia does not have the “family purpose doctrine” in respect to automobiles. In Vir ginia, the son would be liable but not the father. The District of Columbia, Maryland, Delaware, Pennsyl vania, and New Jersey are among the other jurisdictions that do not have- the “family purpose doctrine”. Tennessee, South Carolina, and Georgia, on the other hand, are among the jurisdictions that have adopted the doctrine. The liability of automobile owners is determined iby the law of the state in which the acci dent occurs. Henry Blue had permitted his minor daughter to drive the family car in and about the city, but he had expressly forbidden her to drive it to distant cities. One day the daughter, without the knowledge of her father, drove the car to a distant city and negligently damaged there an automobile belonging to Tim othy Bed. 4 tltiy £B"'recover a judgment for damages from Henry Blue? No. The very genesis of the family purpose car doctrine is agency. The daughter was not driving the car as the agent of her father at the 'time the acci dent occurred. She was with out authority to drive the car in the particular locality. In driv ing the car to a distant city the daughter was acting beyond the scope of her agency.

In keeping with this develop ment, the biggest concentration of mortgagors is found in the age group under 35, which in 1959 represented almost 60 per cent of FHA mortgages on new construction and 55 per cent of loans on existing homes.

Now he can catch fish on a worm and still remain a purist. Homer Circle, in Sports Afield Magazine, takes you on a typical morning’s fishing, using the plas tic worm to augment your regu lar method of angling. Worms won’t replace your regular lures, but they will aug- 1 ment them. Let’s start the morning early before the wind i freshens, with a topwater lure that gurgles, chugs or waddles! to make surface fuss. Move out from shore as the: sky brightens. Ply the shoreline ■ with floating-diving lures that] go three to six feet deep. If by now you haven't stringered! the limit, bring out the worm for those fish that haven’t been | reached yet. That’s right, these worms can | be made to go where nothing j else will reach! Go back to] that shore cover, tie on a lead I jig and floating worm.

Take the slack out of your line, rod tip low, and wait , a few seconds. Then raise your ■ rod tip with a gentle nudge, re peat in short perks, lower your rod tip, take up slack and re peat. Repeat this until the jig-worm is right under your boat. By now you will have slowly and efficiently fished every foot of bottom cover between you and shore, something few lures can do without getting fouled! Repeat this tactic around weed beds, gravel bars, rocky points, deep holes, drop-offs, bridge abutments and other visible cov er spots. It doesn’t matter too much how you use it, but do fish it s-l-o-w-l-y. There are but two mistakes you can make with a worm. One is to fish it too fast. The other is not to fish it at all. We urge you to give j it a try, no matter how you fish. Chances are, not only will ' you catch more fish, but bigger 1 ones than ever before in your t life! i Two Insurance Men At Annual Meeting i Veterans Association Leroy H. Haskett and Jesse !W.
