Thursday, October 23, 19S8 THE CLINTON CHRONICLE Page hlrten THURSDAY. OCTOBER 23 Read John U:1M7 Thaa hast made kaawn to me the ways of life; thou shalt make me fall of Joy with thy coantenaace.—(Acts 2:28). There is an old saying: “It is easier to say a thing than to do it.” A teacher often frightened his pupils with his stern looks One morning at school he talked about Jesus.’ receiving littlte children brought to Him by their mothers. The teacher was enthusiastic about his topic, and the children were very interested. At the conclusion a little girl raised her hand to ask: “Sir, how was Jesus’ face when He talked to the little children?” “He spoke very kindly to them with a beautiful smile on His face,” the teacher answered. Then he suddenly realized that he himself was omit ting something which he ought to do in dealing with children. > He began to think of others like himself in responsible positions who do not actually show either in their faces or in their lives the love of which they speak. From that day on he was completely changed. PRAYER: O merciful Father, help us to love one another as Thou hast loved us. Enable us to live for things that make for peace. Cleanse our hearts and purify our souls. In the name of the Prince of Peace, Jesus Christ, our Saviour. Amen. THOUGHT FOR THE DAY: “Treat men Just as you wish them to treat you.” MIKAELE T. DREU (Fiji) WorM-wtde Bible reading—Mark 1:23-45 Changes In Your Social Security By MARTHA F. PRESSLY (Manager of the Greenwood, S. C., Social Security District Office) In the first article of this series I outlined the most important changes in the old age, survivors, and disability insurance program brought about by the 1858 amend ments to the social security law. To day I «haH discuss in more detail changes in teh law as they affac* the dependents of retired, disabled or deceased insured working peo ple. A fed that the most important changes in this field are those re lating to the families of workers who have become too disabled for further substantial gainful work, and to dependent parents of workers who have died. The first of these important amendments concerns families of insured workers who are no longer able to do substantial gainful work. While monthly benefit payments to qualified disabled workers have been made beginning with July, 1957, until now, no payments were possible to their families. Payments to them could not be made until the disabled bread-winner reached age 65 or died before that time disability benefit payments to the disabled worker offset in part his loss of earnings from work but they did not provide adequate protection for his dependent family. The med ical expenses incurred through dis ability are a major fnancial prob lem for most of these families. Fur thermore, the children are most dependent than are the children of retired workers. It is usually neces sary that the mother remain at home and not attempt to supple ment the family income. In many cases the care required by the dis abled person makes it impossible for his wife to work outside the home. benefit payments based on the earn ings of a son or daughter if there was a surviving wife, dependent widower, or child who was entitled or which could later become entitled to payments. This restriction ap plied even in cases where those survivors never actually became beneficiaries. 1 recall, in partciular, a case where an insured worker died leav. ing a widow who was no longer Iving with him at the time of hii death. His other survivor was an aged mother who was keeping house for him and dependent on him to iler means of livelihood. His death left her destitute. A monthly social security check as a surviving, de pendent parent would have prevent ed this situation. She could not qua lify as a beneficiary, however, be cause the estranged wife was also a survivor. Under the law, as amend ed, this parent would also be eligible for survivors’ benefits under this new provision in the law. Since an application must be filed before benefits can be paid, persons receiving disability insurance ben efits, and who have eligible de pendents, should contact their dis trict office. Parents of deceased workers who were financially de pendent on the deceased son or dau ghter should also contact the social security office. Tie district office serving this area is located at 516 S. Main St., Greenwood. In my next article I shall discuss other changes in the law which af fect dependents of retired or in sured workers. NOTICE OF ELECTION STATE OF SOUTH CAROLINA.
