of prospective teachers the thou
ght that teaching has only a deb
it side; (2)- to have high school

Insurance Dividend
Ch&ck? On The Way
According to Veterans Admin
istration, the major part of the
16 million checks for the $2,800, -
000 National Service Life Insur
ance special dividend will be
mailed by June 30, 1950. 1
The first checks went into the
mails January 16.
Veterans. r&jzl^d ac-_
knowledgejnent cards after mall
ing in their dividend application
forms can 'be assured they will
receive their dividend checks be- 1
fore June 30. They are warned no* :
to write to VA If they do not re- 1
ceive their checks at an early i
date./since reading? and answer
ing -inquiries will only slow up
the process.
? The- mailing ?f-c2jecks is being
done -by the Disbursing Office of
the U. S. Treasury. The goal is to
mail 200,000 checks daily for
each five-day work week, or a
bout checks a week.
Veterans A dimrnist ration to
date has received approximately
12,250,000 applications for the di
vldend. of which practically all
>.<s,wr UiCJt-'sZSvov; S3SF2! ~ 'How
ever, says VA, about 25,000 of
their acknowledgements have
been returned by the post office
because these veterans had mov
ed from the addresses they gave
in their applications, without leal
vlng a forwarding address with
the post office.
Approximately 400,000 World
War n veterans have died since
they took out their GI insurance.
.The dividend payments of these
deceased veterans will be hand
led separately.
Dividends art to be paid on' all
National Service Life Insurants
certificates that were held in for
ce three months or longer, and
the payments are based only on
the period for which premiums
were paid. The period covered by
the dividends begins with the
month in which each policy was
issued and extends to the anni
versary date of the policy in 1948.
Many Harnett .County farmers
are interested in growing sweet
potatoes as a cash crop this ye&K,
says Farm Agent C. R. lAmmons.
ONE of the grandest .things about your Buick is the
way you can ignore the season ? chew your way
through gravel and dust alike, splash through the wet
stretches, snug and secure even on slippery pavements.
' 8?t bear this one thought in mind...
y . >? ? * ' " ' ' . V
Rough road conditions call for special attention to your
lubricants. Tires should be checked for correct
I inflation ? for deep, clean tread thatbites on a slicksur*
face. Brakes won't stop you with a sure and gentle
touch if the master cylinder needs tnore fluid, or if an air
bubble has worked itself into the line. These things, and
more, should be checked to keep your Buick at its best.
If that sounds like more than one thought to bear in mind
?just drive into our shop and tell the man, "LUBRICARE,
please."
Our winter Lubrjcare treatment covers all these points
? with specially trained mechanics following factory
specifications as they go over your car from end to end.
Drive in this week, why don't you? The price is sur
prisingly low. The peace of mind is priceless.
