SOCIAL SECURITY
D. W. Lambert, manager
of the Asheville office said
today that care and atten
tion to this matter of keep
ing the records straight
no\V, might very well mean
the difference between the
right payments and the
wrong payments of bene
fits, later on.
He explained that an in
dividual account is kept for
each worker whose name
appears on the books of the
Social Security Board. The
worker’s name and a num
ber that is assigned to him
by the Board are printed
at the top of his ledger
sheet and also written on
record cards that are kept
on file. 1
Mr. Lambert stressed the
fact that wage data must
be accurate, Because the
amount of benefits to be
paid to each qualified clai
mant is based on a wage re
cord. That is why the Soc
ial Security Board takes
extra precaution to safe
guard the social security
account of every wage ear
ner listed on its books. It
is also the reason why ev
ery employer subject to the
law must include in his soc
ial security quarterly tax
report to the Government
the name, the social secur
ity account number and the
wage earnings of each
worker he employs, and
| give the employee a receipt!
at least once a year. But
before the employer can in-1
‘ elude" this data in his re
port, he must have the in
formation himself. There
fore, the employee must
make sure that his employ
er has the necessary infor
mation.

SCHOOL NEWS
“JANE EYRE”
Instinctively a young
girl sets before her some
standard of perfection and
consciously or unconscious
ly she strives to emulate
the graces and virtues of
this beau-ideal. Sometimes
it is a mother who serves
as her or a superla
tive elder sister; or it may!
be some glamorous actress;
or some dynamic feminine'
figure of the day. But, as
a general rule, a girl forms
her ideal conception from
some very appealing char
acter in fiction.
Such characters present
a wide field for a young
lady’s fancies to range ov-i
er; but it is a safe assump
tion that, inevitably, when
she turns the pages of
“JANE EYRE”, that im
mortal book by Charlotte
Bronte, and acquaints her-j
self with the heroine, she,
will have no thought of '
looking further for a-pat
tern of feminine perfection.
For the character o f
“JANE EYRE” is adorned
with all the charms and
graces and that any
young lady could ever hope
to aspire to.
And now, would you like
to see this wonderful char
acter come to life f 5 Would
you like to see her run the
gamut of emotions from
jov to despair, from horror
to ultimate peace and hap
piness? Would you like to
judge for yourself the qua
lities that have endeared;
this heroine to lovers of
literature throughout the
world? Then don’t fail to
attend the dramatization
which is to be presented by
the Junior Class at Bald
Creek High School on Fri
day night, April 21, 1944,
! The cast of characters
includes:
Mrs. Fairfax, Mary Hel
en Neill; Odele Varnes,
Dora Radford; Nora, Kath

ceiving the paper for the',
past two months and I
want to say thanks for ,
sending it. I enjoy reading
the home town news very (
much. My address has;
changed and I will recieve ,
the paper faster if it is
sent here.
.„ After firflfhing my basic :
training at Miami Beach,
Fla. I was sent to Harlin-i;
gen army air field, Texas.
Here I will attend flexible
gunnery school for the next
few weeks., |.
I wish to say thanks to
my friends for the many
cards and letters I have)
been receiving and 1 hope
they will keep writing as;
there is nothing like a let-:
ter from some one back!
home. My best wishes to
all of you there.

i
Record: Just a line from
one of the home town boys,
. to say thanks for the paper
and to give you a change
. of addresses. I have receiv
t fed two copies of the paper
since 1 have been in Eng
land and 1 really enjoyed it
more than I ever did be
fore. It tells you much of
the news that you don’t get
in a letter.
Well, England is a beau
-1 tiful country even if it has
been at war for so long,
1 and the people really treat
' the “Yanks” swell. When
’ you get a look at some
i parts ,gs the country you
know what the kids mean
when they hold up fingers
1 for Victory.
I thought things were ra
tioned in the States but!
nothing like they are here.
America is the luckiest
, country in the world.
It sure seems good to
walk in a Red Cross can
teen and have good coffee
and doughnuts, etc. The
Red Cross is surely doing
a_ swell job. [
I would like To say hello'
l to all my friends and would j
i be more than glad to hear
; from them. A letter really
: means a lot to you over
here.
