SAFETY TIPS IN THAWING PIPES on increase Forest fire occurence rose during the month of December in Newberry county, according to Newberry county Ranger James Lee Mills. During the month six fires burned 33 acres of woodland. During the month of November Newberry county had only 4 fires burning 9 acres. Ranger Mills reports that Newberry County had a total of 16 fires burning 56 acres of woodland during the 6 month period ending December 31st, 1965. This is a slight increase over the number during the same period last year. Everyone is urged to be care ful in the use of fire during the remaining winter and spring months, “It is only with the continued cooperation of every one that we can keep the for est fires to a minimum.” stated Ranger Mills. There are several ways to thaw out frozen water pipe at home. The use of a blowtorch, at Trenton however, is definitely not one /.gv r ?•' of them. iir.s. '•! v i-x \ The American Insurance As- FOR SALE AND DEMOLI- sociation suggests the applica-. .TION-c - Two-story Brick Build tion of hot water or an electric heater cable to defrost the line. If these or similar measures don’t work, then call the plumber. The blowtorch or other open flame is out. The Association cautions asrainst these hazardous means, reminding the public that one doesn’t want to risk burning down the house just to thaw a pipe. Seedlings are still available Landowners are reminded that tree seedlings are still av ailable from the State Com mission of Forestry’s four nur series. L. M. Duke, District Forester of the Newberry District, re ports that a good supply of loblolly pine seedlings is still oh hand.

Also in cluded are recommendations for protection from fire, insects and disease. No charge is made for this service. Where cutting of timber i& recommended, a forester of the State Commission of Forestry will, at the request of the land- owner, mark the timber to be cut, provide the landowner with an estimate of the volume marked for cutting and fur* nish a list of prospective buy ers, a suggested form of ad vertisement, and a sample tim ber sales agreement.The charge for this service is 75c per 1000 board feet of sawtimber and 25c per standard cord of pulp- wood actually marked and tal lied.

Box 129, Newber ry, S. C. or County Ranger Jas. Lee Mills in Newberry. To demonstrate roecial music Aching plan The originator of a revolu tionary method of teaching music to retarded children, deaf and exceptional children, will give a series of lecture demon strations in South Carolina this next week. He is Richard Web er, a doctoral student in the Department of Special Educa tion at Teacher’s College, Col umbia University, who devised the six-note “Musicall” techni que. Children who have never spoken a word, never communi cated through the medium of sound learn to play the piano under Mr. Weber’s supervision —with six notes. “Children Limited,” the official publica tion of the National Associa tion for Retarded Children, la bels his work as setting off a revolution in the concept of teaching music to the severely retarded children. Mr. Weber has worked with blind child ren, with the cerebral palsied, with children with IQ’s of be low 25. He demonstrates how all can learn to play simple melodies on piano or wind in struments. He believes every student should have the oppor tunity to express himself mus ically and to discover the meas ure of his creativity. Under the sponsorship of the simple six-note range and com bining letters, numbers and other symbols, Weber achieves what observers call “fantastic success” in teaching the men tally retarded not only to read, but to control hypersensitivity often found in children with ex ceptionally low IQ’s. Music touches the emotions of the re tarded, and makes a tough learning process much easier,” Weber says. By playing the be ginnings of melodies that are familiar to the child, and let ting him identify them by sound, it is easy to convince the child that he already knows what he is going to learn, Weber explains. Weber is daily proving his theory at Teacher’s College workshops. Under the sponsorship o fthe Columbia Association for Re tarded Children and the South Carolina Association for Re tarded Children, Mr. Weber will present lecture-demonstra tions at Whitten Village in Clinton, Pineland, Happy Time Center, and at; the Hall Insti tute in the Forum in Columbia. Demonstrations at Whitten Village on January 24 will be gin at 9:30 a.m. The following day Mr. Weber will lecture at Pineland in Columbia, with ses sions opening at 9:30 a.m. and on January 26, will lecture to teachers at Happy Time Cen ter in Columbia. All these ses sions are open to teachers of the trainable mentally retard ed. Monday and Tuesday even ings, January 24 and 25, Mr. Weber’s lectures will be open to the public, to teachers of the educable retarded, to par ents and to friends of the retarded. Sessions will begin at 7:30 p.m. and will be held at Hall Institute in the Forum Room at the State Hospital. Information concerning the demonstrations may be obtain ed by contacting the South Car olina Association for Retarded Children in Columbia. To lecture in Saluda The public is invited to at tend a Christian Science lec ture on *b - :sday evening, Jan uary 27 at 8:00 p.m. at the Saluda Schools Administration building, 301 N. Calhoun St., Saluda. The lecturer will be Norman B. Holmes, C.S.H. of Chicago, member of the Board of Lec tureship of the Mother church, The First Church of Christ, Scientist, in Boston, Mass. His subject will be, “God—Not Chance.’” Lucius Frick’s brother dies James Floyd Frick, 66, of Chapin, died Sunday in a local hospital. Mr. Frick was born in Lex ington county, a son of the late James Andrew and Annie Cook Frick. Surviving are one sister, Mrs. Ethel F. Bundrick of Colum bia; two brothers, Ernest, of Lexington and Lucius of Pros perity. Funeral services were held Tuesday from St. Peters Lu theran church. Omstions about Social Security Q. I am over 65, but never worked under social security. Am I eligible for Medicare? A. Probably. Nearly all people 65 or older are eligible for Medicare. There is no work requirements. Get in touch with your nearest social security of fice for information about en rolling in the program. Q. I am 65 and undecided about the supplementary medi cal insurance program. If I do not enroll by March 31, 1966, will I have another chance la ter? A. Yes. If you fail to enroll by March 31, 1966, you will have another chance to sign up during the next general enroll ment period—October 1, 1967 —December 31, 1967. However, if you wait until then, you will have to pay a higher prem ium and your protection will not begin until 6 to 9 months after you enroll. If you fail to enroll during the October to December 1967 period, you will not be able to obtain supple mentary medical insurance cov erage at any other time in the future. Q. Can I use any doctor I want under the supplementary medical insurance \program, or am I restricted to doctors sel ected by the Government? A. There are no restrictions in your choice of doctors under the program. You may use your present doctor or any other qualified physician. Q. Does the medical insur ance program pay for the cost of drugs prescribed by my doc tor? A. No. Under the program, drugs are covered only when they are administered by your doctor as part of his services in your home, his office, or elsewhere. If your doctor pre scribes drugs, which you your self purchase, their cost is not covered. Q. If I have a $500 bill in a year’s time for doctor’s visits and covered treatments, how much will I have to pay under the supplementary plan? A. It would cost you $140. The program would pay $360. This is how it is figured: you pay the first $50 in each calen dar year for doctors’ and other covered services. Your medical insurance then pays 80 per cent of the charges for addi tional covered services. Building Permits Lewis E. Nichols, repairs to dwelling, 1604 Nance street. S. F.

SHOULD KNOW THE OTHER SIDE “When America’s keenest minds are using newspapers, magazines, movies, and radios to entice youth to drink whis key, smoke cigarettes, and make heroes out of criminals, these youths should be given the other side of the argument by someone.”—Roger Babson. TOO MUCH EASE “There is too much feather bed living in this world. There are too many hunting for soft jobs, soft seats, soft problems, and an all-round soft exist ence. That isn’t life. Life is best when it is difficult. Then it is that a man is put to his mettle, tried in the fire, and all the alloy in his makeup burned up, so that he stands before the world in his com pleteness as a man. — George Matthew Adams.

SCHOOLS “It is a deeply disturbing fact that no fewer than seven teen million young folks in our country receive no religious instruction whatever.
