Steadily Increasing Number .
Of Lump-Sum Cash Pay- jj
ments Indicates That n
Claimants Are Becoming a
Better Informed To Their is
Rights a
a
Wilmington, Nov. 29. ? The f
steadily increasing number of 11
lump-sum cash payments under j ^
the Social Security Act indicates |e
that claimants are becoming a' e
little better informed as to their
rights. There are still many thousands
of people entitled to claims, f
who have not yet filed, however, 1
Mr. George W. Jeffrey, said to- 1
day. c
Up to November 15, 2,051 e
claims have been certified for c
payment in Region IV, which r
comprises North Carolina, the
District of Columbia, Maryland,
Virginia and West Virginia. Total
claims received up to November
15, 1937, was 2,864 and 3,134 up s
to November 22, which indicates 0
that more prospective claimants ?
ire availing themselves of the ^
privileges under the Federal oldige
insurance provisions of the ^
Social Security Act. In the State
if North Carolina 473 claims a
had been certified for payment j
up to November 15, 1937. ^
The average amount of the
payment has also increased, Mr.
Jeffrey stated. During the month jif
October the average amount t
if lump-sum payments, under (|
the old-age insurance provisions
if the Social Security Act was
524.04 in this Region as compared
with 818.03 in September, j,
rhe average for the country as ],
i whole was $26.40. The method n
jf making claim for these pay- p
nents is very simple, Mr. Jeffrey u
raid. Field Offices of the Social );
Security Board will contact pros- c
jective claimants, when it is in- ]j
heated that they may be eligi- ti
jle for a benefit, and explain and f;
lelp the claimants to execute the
lecessary forms. tl
1 ne lump-sum payiiieuia Luov a.
ire being made now became ef- A
ective January 1, 1937. Monthly 1<
layments do not become operaive
until 1942. Persons eligible c
or lump sum payments arc a
hose in covered employment af- tl
er 1936, who have reached the o
ige of 65. Payments are also bong
made to relatives and estates
if workers, who have died since K

Charlotte,?A baby born at [

ites after her 19-ycar-old mother | L
lied, became three days?or 72

The young father, Robert E. ft

<ept alive in an incubator. The h
ather has been too grief-stricken ?
.0 give his daughter a name. n
But the nurses at the hospital n
lave adopted Martha for the ?
lame of the little girl, already P
he hospital "pet". Martha was .
:he name of the baby's mother,
,vho died Tuesday night of an ^
icute cardiac condition. ~ J
Physicians said the chances of ^
ife for the baby increased hourly.
It is rare, they said, for a \
baby born under such circum- j
stances to live more than a few 'i
minutes. They recalled the case ~x
of a baby born under like con- i
liitions in Philadelphia last sum- 2
mer, who, because it lived 46 j
hours, attracted wide attention. "
The baby, a month and a half ?
premature, weighed three pounds i
and 12 ounces at birth. Today )
she weighs only three pounds and
nine ounces but physicians said ;
this was natural. 2
Martha is a very exclusive :
baby. She sees no visitors except 1
her nurse and her doctor. Dr. "i
Jasper Hunt. She can swallow
food, but so inefficiently that ]
four times a day it becomes "
necessary to insert a tube thr- *,
ough her mouth into her stomach j
by which she takes four ounces
of liquid nourishment.
The temperature of the incu- .
bator is kept at 100 degrees. j

Induce Bossy To

J Induced To Eat All She
I Can In Order To Provide
A Good Milk Flow Says
' j Expert
Even the humblest dairy 'cow
' has her own ideas about what
she likes to eat, and only palat
able feed will tempt her to eat
! enough to maintain a full milk
flow.
' A good dairy cow has a tremendous
capacity for converting
feed into milk, said John A.
Arey, of State College, and to
1 make full use of this capacity,
; she should be induced to eat all
she can.
A healthy cow relishes a grain
mixture containing several dif1
ferent feeds, but she usually gets
tired of a ration containing only
one or two kinds of grain,
j Variety in the grain mixture
not only makes it more palatable,
Arey pointed out; it also
insures against a shortage of
minerals and provides needed
, proteins.

Wild Turkey Hunting Is
Purely Matter Of Skill
Contlnuea from Page 1)
described for successful turkey
hunting is to locate and scatter
a flock late in the afternoon.
After the birds have spent the
night scattered about the woods
over a radius of a mile, they
are anxious to get together early
in the morning.
A skillful turkey hunter who
has located and marked the position
of Ihe turkeys the night
hefo"" then goes before day and
hides it; a blind with his turkey
caller. About daylight he gives
his call. The chances are that
there .soon will be an answering
