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.

“opportunities for education to
children whose education would
otherwise be impeded or interrup
ted by reason of the death of a
parent from a disease or injury

ment to give the shots to every
person up to the age of 20 years
who has not yet received them.
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.

SPORTS
AFIELD
This is your first summer as
a boatman? 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.

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*

there were noisy cars or truck!
on the highways, no noisy trac
tors on the farms and no noisy air
planes in the air.
