Vets Urged To
Convert NSLI
Since many South Carolina
World War II veterans have been
carrying term GI life insurance
for 15 years or more, they should
give serious thought to planning
their insurance futures before the
i spiraling cost of term insurance
become prohibitive.
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.
In addition, permanent insur-

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.

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.”
