Children Of Vets To Receive Aid More than 150,000 children . of deceased veterans are expected to be eligible for government grants to further their education, under a new law recently signed by the president, Veteran Administration has estimated. The veteran must have died of injuries or disease resulting from their military service. The monthly schooling pay ments will begin October 1, 1956 Children between 18 and 23 whose deceased parents served in World War I, World War II or the Ko rean war may apply for the edu cational program. In some instan ces, however, children will be per mitted to begin school before their 18th birthday and to finish after their 23rd. Education may be taken in col leges and universities, as well as below-college-level schools. But regular high school training isn’t included in the new law, and be low college level courses must equip students for definite voca tional objectives. On - the - job training, on-the-farm training and correspondence courses are not allowed. Government allowances of $110 a month are paid to students if attending full-time; $80 for three quarter time; and $50 for half time training. The rate for ‘co-op’ courses—alternating schooling & actual experience on a related job —is $90 a month. Students will be allowed up to 36 months of training. The time will be reduced by any Korean GI bill or Public law 894 vocational rehabilitation training they might have received, as Korean veterans. VA described the steps to be followed in applying for school ing. The child’s parent or guard ian files an application writh his nearest VA regional office. VA will issue provisional approval if it finds the child meets the basic eligibility requirements. VA will then arrange for edu cational or vocational counseling to help the parent or guardian and the child arrive at a suitable ob jective, and to help develop an ed ucational program of education, the school or schools where the child plans to go, an estimate of how much the program wall cost and any other data VA might re quire. After this is submitted, VA may give its final approval for the training. The new law also provides for special restorative training for children with physical or mental disabilities which would render pursuit of a regular program of education. This training would be in the nature of speech and voice correction, lip reading, and braille reading and writing, one-hand typewriting, personal adjustment training and the like. The government allowance for the special restorative training is $110 a month, but it may be in creased if not sufficient to meet the cost of fees and tuition.

The vaccine still will offer pro tection during the polio season this year as well as the future. Some people seem a little reluc tant about letting their children take the shots; how will they feel if their child contracts polio, knowing that they hadn’t done everything that could have been done to protect him ? I have heard of no case in South Carolina where the Salk vaccine has had an adverse effect on a child. From personal experience, I can as sure you it is much easier on the young ones than the regular “se ries” of shots—tetanus, etc. My little girls had the first two shots at the ages of one and three and the only discomfort was the slight prick of the needle. They didn’t even cry, except for an outraged yell by Ruthie when she dropped the lollipop that Dr. Martin had given her before ad ministering the shot. There were no after effects. The shots may be obtained from your family physi cian for a nominal cost or may be had free at the health depart ment. I would urge you to give maximum protection to all those in your family up to the age of 20 and see that they have the vaccine now if they have not al ready had it. It is also available for pregnant women of any age. also visiting the B&rnes, left Sunday for the Is}e of Palms, where they will be guests of the Rudolph Barnes at their summer home there.

If so, Willard Cran dall, boats and motors editor for Sporty Afield magazine has a few words of wisdom for you: The first fundamental the no vice should get hold of is that not only does a boat not ride on four wheels, but that there are innumerable other differences between auto and boat driving. Nearly exery thing about an automobile should be forgotten —start from scratch. Safety in boating does nit consist of “driv ing slowly” and reducing speed for corners ’ — collisions are one of your less frequent hazards. What takes place before the boat leaves the dock is almost half the story of safe boating. Tools, gas, oil and life preser vers—life vests are better—must be aboard. Clothes should be light and not entangling. Oars or paddles are required and an anchor is recommended. Weather must be considered, and wind is the most important part of weather as far as boating is concerned. One of the first things to learn about small boats, particularly those under cruiser size, is that swamping or upsetting due to high waves is the most frequent cause of accidents. Never load a small boat to capacity. And filling every seat of a small, open boat, particu larly rowboats, is going well be yond capacity. Loading a small boat is important. Underway, the boat must not learn to one side or the other. Too much weight in either bow or stern will not only slow the boat under power but may result in swamping. Passengers should always climb into a small boat one at a time, and sit dow before the next one puts a tentative foot on the bot tom. Never have anything in your hands while boarding—put gas cans, tackle box, and so forth, aboard first. A newcomer must learn how to avoid collisions with underwa ter objects. Start the motor \^here there is at least 6 inches of wa ter under boat and motor, and start in neutral. If the engine has no neutral, be saire ‘ the craft is pointed toward traffic-free water before pulling the starter, and that no wind will suddenly catch a light bow and swing it before the motor can be adjusted and full attention given to steering. The most common mistake in landing, the final step in boat jop- eration, is coming in too fast or too slow. Always allow for wind or current in landing; they have a more potent effect once the boat is slowed up. Landing against the wind or tide gives you better control. If a beginner must err in landing, it is, better to be on the slow side, for too fast might damage the boat. i mum. BY THE 01* TIMERS *? From Mrs. Clarence 'J. Fortes- cue. South Norfolk, Va: I remem ber when as a little girl my grand father used to drive to church in a buggy pulled by old “Prince” the horse. I used to sit at the foot of the buggy on a little stool, and every once in a while the horse would switch his tail in my face. My grandmother had a four poster bed with a feather mattress and you had to climb steps to get up into it. It had a big white ruffle all round and there was a trun dle bed that went under it in the daytime. From Marion Hamilton, French* bur k* *7.: I can remember when there were noisy cars or truck! on the highways, no noisy trac tors on the farms and no noisy air planes in the air.
