PAGE FOUR THE NEWBERRY SUN, NEWBERRY, SOUTH CAROLINA THURSDAY, JANUARY 30, 1964 Income Tax Tips Sick Pay Exclusion If you were paid for the time yc : were absent from work be cause of illness or injury, the amount you received for the time ryounwrere away from work may be exempt, or partially exempt, from Federal income tax provided your employer financed the plan under whicli you received such pay. You are covered by a sick pay plan if, on the date you were in jured or became ill, you were cov eted by a policy, program, or cus- tum providing 1 for payments to you in tbe vent of injury or illness. While there must be a plan, it is not necessary that the plan be in writing or even that you can en force payment of the benefits. pay is the amount you re- as wages or payments in lieu «f wages under a sick plan. If Ike amount you received was at a weekly rate of $100 or less, the entire amount is exempt if certain conditions are met. If you receiv ed asere than a weekly rate of 00, the excess is taxable income, hs the event you are absent from wuric because of illness, yonr sick pay exclusion starts in the 8th day of your absence, unless you | are hospitalized during your rb- ! sence. The 7-day waiting period is | 7 calendar days starting with the I first day you are absent from work because of illness. It includes any nonwork day, such as Sat urday, Sunday, or a holiday, after your first day absence. The 7-day waiting period applies to each period of absence even though the same illness causes more than one period of absence. It does not matter how frequent the absen ces are, or how close together they occur. If you are hospitalized for at least one day, you are entitled to sick pay exclusion from the first day of your absence, including the first 7 days. The hospitalization may occur at any time during your absence. You are considered to be hospitalized only if you are ad mitted to and confined in a hos pital as a bed patient for at least one hospital day. If you are ab sent because of injury, your sick pay exclusion starts the first day of absence. Should you become ill or are in jured during your paid vacation, you may not exclude any of your vacation pay as sick pay. How ever, if you are absent because of illness or injury, and use your va cation leave to provide wages dur ing this absence, you may consid er your vacation pay in computing the sick pay exclusion. Amounts earned prior or subse quent to your absence are not sick pay even though they may be re ceived while you are absent from work. Only those payments receiv ed as wages or in lieu of wages for the period you were absent from work because of illness or in jury may be considered in comput ing your sick pay exclusion. Your excludable sick pay is an exclusion for the year in which you received it, even though all or a part of the absence may have occurred in the preceding year. You do not have to itemize deduc tions in order to claim a sick pay exclusion. If you claim a sick pay exclus ion, you should attach a statement to your return for each period of absence showing the nature of your illness or injury, the dates you were absent from work, the dates you were hospitalized, and a SALE SHOP AT Carolina Remnant Shop AND SAVE All Woolens, reg. $2.98 and $2.79 NO W$1.98 yd.

In the prior year, net in come was $14,711,000 or $2.31 per share. The figures for 1963 are neither preliminary data or esti mates, but are final audited re sults. In making the announcement, Karl R. Bendetsen, President of Champion, said, “Our improvement in earnings was achieved in spite of substantially lower price reali zation for our products in 1963 than in the prior y sar. Addition ally, losses were incurred in the disposition of our unprofitable plastic cup business. Cost reduc tions, accompanied by an increase in volume of products sold, enab led us to continue our forward progress.” 13 Scholarships At Clemson Are Available Thirteen scholarships totaling $7,600, ranging in value from $150 to $1200 each, are available for qualified freshmen who plan to enroll in the School of Agriculture at Clemson college this summer or in September. The scholarships will be award ed on the basis of each applicant’s high school record, financial need, leadership qualities and the score recorded on the entrance examina tion required of all entering stu dents. Complete details may be obtain ed by writing to Professor T. V. Wilson, chairman of the Agricul tural Scholarship Committee, Ag ricultural Engineering Building, Clemson College, S. C. Scholarship applications must be postmarked before midnight Mar. 1 to receive consideration. “Many deserving young men,” says Wilson, “want to enter Clem son each year but are unable to meet all the financial require ments. Scholarships alone will not supply to necessary funds but they do help where the need is acute.” Most of the awards are made on a state-wide basis to South Carolina boys who have demon strated an interest in agriculture. Some are limited to specific areas of study but most can be applied to the broad range of subjects found in the agricultural curricu lum. BUYS FURNITURE John B.

Our shoe polish was soot taken from an old iron stove lid. Our kitchen floor was bare, scrubbed each week with creek sand and homemade lye soap. Mother made my knee pants until I was 15 years old and the girls wore calico dresses, also homemade, from material bought at the country store for 54 a yard. And we used to sing “I was her barefoot beau. She was my queen in Calico.” We went to Hie old country church, which was about the only place to go. There was no lipstick, no powder, no paint, no short hair for the women, nor short sleeves, nor short dresses. Woe-be-unto she who disobeyed any of these rules. The parson generally wore a beard and a long frock-tailed coat, no creases in the pants. Creases weren’t heard of in those days. But the parson’s message was soul-stirring and the songs of the day still linger in my soul. Many of them I haven’t heard in years.
