(Sunphoto.) dividends For GI Policyholders An estimated 53,960 South Carolina veterans who hold parti cipating GI life insurance will re ceive $2,626,700 in regular annual policy dividends during 1959, Hugh H. Henderson, Contact Of ficer of the Veterans Administra tion Regional Office in Columbia, announced today. Mr. Henderson said this repre sents South Carolina GI policy- holders’ proportionate share in a national 1959 dividend total of $256,000,000 declared recently for participating GI insurance. He explained that the dividends are primarily a refund to policy holders of part their premium payments, and are made possible because the death rate among GI policyholders continues to be low er than the tables upon which the premiums were established by law. Policyholders are requested not to make dividend inquiries in ad vance, since this would delay pro cessing time, Mr. Henderson stressed. Dividends will be paid automa tically as soon as possible after the anniversary date of each po licy during 1959. For example, if a policy was issued any Septem ber 1, the anniversary date will be September 1, 1959, Mr. Henderson pointed out. He added that divi dends will be paid to holders of both term and permanent plan participating NSLI and USGLI policies. DEED TRANSFERS Newberry No. 1 William Burton to Lola S.

Students Give UDC Program The outstanding feature of the December meeting of Dray ton Rutherford chapter was the program given by a group of boys and girls from Miss Sallie Lee Cromer’s 5th. grade. For the de votional they recited the 100th. Psalm in unison followed by the group singing The Lord’s Prayer. They led in the salutes to the flags, then sang America. The historical part of their pro gram was based on facts learned from a unit of work on “The South and its Confederate His tory”: First, Life on the Planta tions before and after the War be tween the States; facts from, the lives of outstanding leaders dur ing that period — John C. Cal houn, Jefferson Davis, Wade Hampton, Robert E. Lee and Stonewall Jackson; po6ms per taining tothis period — “Little Giffen of Tennessee”, “Carolina”, “The Silent March”, “Stonewall Jackson’s Way’ 1 ; a talk emphasi zing that the North and South are united, “one nation, indivis ible, under God, with liberty and justice for all”. The program closed with Christmas poem and the group singing “Silent Night” and “Long, Long Ago.” Several large pictur es, drawn by the children were us ed in connection with some of the numbers on the program. It was a beautiful and impressively rend ered program. At the close, the children were excused and served refreshments, when the chapter was called to or der and the minutes of the Nov ember meeting were read by Mrs. Holland Sligh in the absence of the Recording Secretary, Mrs. A. J. Briggs. Mrs. Elmer Shealy, Co-director of the Children’s chapter report ed that Mrs. M. F. Fowler had accepted leadership of the 6th. and 7ih. grade group which has been without a leader for some time. The chapter is very grateful to Mrs. Bowler. There is sincere great regret over the removal of Mrs. W. P. Wright, Sr., to Hawaii in January. Folders containing lists of offi cers, members, and committees were distributed to be inserted in the year books. A welcome was extended to Mrs. Gordon Clarkson whose papers came in some time ago. Mrs. R. D. Wright spoke of some of the actions of the recent General U. D. C. convention in St. Louis as gathered from St. Louis papers and letters from friends who were there. South Carolina voted unanimously against the amendment which trebles the former per capita dues to the Gen eral organization. This will work a hardship even on large chapters, but especially on the small ones that could hardly pay the former dues. A new member will have to pay more than the former initia tion fee. Instead of the usual box of indi vidual gifts to the chapter’s Con federate “Sunshine Sister”, at the Forest Hills Home, a check will be sent to be spent as she likes. At the close of the meeting, de lectable refreshments were served by the associate hostesses — Mrs. Cannon Blease, Mrs. W. P. Wright, Sr,, and Miss Sallie Lee Cromer. The January meeting will be in the home of Mrs. Elbert Dickert.
