This word of caution was voiced today by Hugh H. Henderson* ; Contact Officer, VA Regional Of fice, Columbia, in reminding vet erans who are counting on life time protection from their GI pol icies that the premiums on term insurance increase as they grow older. Term insurance affords maxi mum protection at minimum cost during the early post-service years needed to establish a home and a budget designed for build ing the future. However, term in surance is seldom suitable for pro- | tection in a policy-holder’s ad vanced age, Mr. Henderson point ed out. i “Term premiums increase every ; five years, not too badly in the early years, but rapidly in the ad vanced years,” he said. “A $10,- 000 term policy at age 40 carries a gross annual premium of only $102, but at age 65 it jumps to $476.40 annually—and to $741.60 at age 70.” Mr. Henderson said the way out is conversion of all or part of the term policy to any of the perma nent-type plans available where premium rates remain the same from year to year.

CLOVER LEAF DRIVE-IN Theatre THURSDAY BY THOMAS COLLINS A TIME FOR CHECKING ON HOW YOU'LL RETIRE HpHIS won’t cure your rheuma- tism or make you rich. Nor will it stop the grand children from yelling. But if you are close to retire ment it can put the Golden Years almost within your grasp. It is a retirement checklist with which—in this significant New Year—you can start putting your affairs in order: —Family sentiment runs deep and all over the lot at this sea son. So start compiling, maybe tomorrow, a history of your fam ily. It is a project that will make you a continuing center of inter est for all members of the family, and last you for your life-time. It may take you back through the old graveyards of New England be fore you’re through, if you re search enough, and it will bring into your life some interesting people that range from Skid Row bums to the second son of Uncle Josiah’s first wife who now owns an Oklahoma oil well. —Make the acquaintance cf a lawyer. You can hardly afford to grow old without one any more. Contact him for the purpose of making a will, which both you and your wife should have. Then continue the relationship, for ad vice on selling your home, if you do, for help on working out your income tax, and for providing a responsible adviser for your wi dow if you die first, which you’ll probably do. (Don’t go looking up a tree for a bargain lawyer. There are no bargains in law yers. Ask the County Bar As sociation to recommend one to you.) —If you plan to move to another area when you retire choose the area as quickly as you can after the first of the year, then start getting into bed with it. Even ten years is not too long to cultivate the people and customs of a new town that will become your home. —And if you’re planning to move, and have a home to sell, keep in mind that you may have to pay a substantial capital gains tax on. your house because it has probably gone up in value as have the houses of most people now nearing retirement. —Decide where you and your wife want your cemetery lot. Buy it. Then forget the mattfer. —Start moving any invested money you have into a type of investment that gives the highest possible income with the best possible security. This is impor tant, and for two reasons. The first is that “growth” investments and speculative investments -that may make you a million some day are not your meat any more. What you need now is income. The second is that, if you have been dealing in stocks and real estate you probably have made some good paper profits over re cent years. These profits, like profit from your home, are sub ject to a capital gains tax. Switch the investments now, if they should be switched, so you can pay the tax out of your salary. It comes easier out of a salary thon a pension. For a copy of the new Golden Years booklet by Thomas Collins, send 35 cents in coin (no stamps) to Dept.

BY %AGldt%wM' From G. M. Wright, New Al bany, Indiana: I remember when I began teaching accounting south of Griffin, Indiana, some fifty years ago. I would be taken each Friday afternoon to the train for the ride to Stewartsville, where it would be PChange cars for New Harmony.” One afternoon while waiting for the train I was talking with a young man teacher who asked me if I was going to the Institute the next day. “I think I smell choco lates,” he added. I had some in my pockets, so I gave him three. I then asked, “Did you ever carry worms in your pockets?” Before we could talk further, it was “All Aboard,” so I renewed my conversation with Bill Chaffin, the conductor. “Never carried worms in my pocket,” Bill said “mostly on top of my head—to keep folks from knowing I was going fishings First time I tried it, one worm slid beneath my collar and right down my back. We used bent pins for hooks and it didn^t make any difference if we failed to catch fish. We had fun just spotting them.” He continued: “That night the mother of three boys who were with us wanted to know how they got their hair so dirty, so we had to come up with a new idea. The next time we met to go fishing one boy had a salt sack. We didn’t have one, so we pondered the question at length and finally someone said ‘we could spread a rag on the ground and put the fishing worms on it and bring the sides up and tie them.’ So we all went home for rags. “We had many thrills walking across the stubble fields with those balls of fishing worms under our hats.” (Send contribution* to this column to The Old Timer, Commnnltr Pres* Service, Box SP, Frankfort, K-ntucky.)
