Golden Age Fellowship was
held in the social hall of Cen
tral Methodist church. Twenty
members were present, includ
ing one new member.
To open the meeting, all of
the members joined in singing
“Come Thou Fount of Every
Blessing.”
Mrs. Hartley led the devo
tions, using the theme ‘Thanks
giving.’ She read an interest
ing selection entitled “The
First Thanksgiving.” “Help
Somebody Today” was chosen
by the group for their last
song.
A note of sadness was felt
when it was announced that a
beloved member, Mrs. T. S.
Humphries, had passed away
since the last meeting.
Several contests were held
which related to Thanksgiving.
Mrs. E. B. Baker and Mrs. D.
J. Williams each won a prize.
Happy Birthday” was sung
to three members who had
birthdays in November.
The hostesses, Mrs. P. M.
Dennis, Mrs. F. A. Truett and
Mrs. S. M. Atkinson, served
delicious refreshments, which
were enjoyed by all. A rising
vote of thanks was given the
hostesses for their hospitality.

Pa&n kpeWtors* are the only
s&f-Wipkoy^ f1 group covered
by Social- Security that have
the privilege of an optional
iftethda - bf reporting earnings
for Sodial Security. In bad
years, this enables them to
Jceep up the average earnings
In their Social Security ac
counts.
Miss'MHIhrthy Pressly, Dis-
triJft^Biifk&fr* in Greenwood,
pOklW^dut that the rules for
ffcjtorting under the
OpUon cn for OJ l < &66 are more lib-
4ifAi ( !than in previous years.
This year, if a farmer’s
gross income is over $2,400
but his actual net income is
not more than $1,600, he has
the option of paying the Social
Security ta* on $1,600 or his
actual ifet earnings. If his
gross farm income is over
$2,400; but his actual net earn-
$Ajj$ >l ax^'‘over $1,600 he must

^Misfe 1 Pressly observed that
most 'informed farm operators
a#e the optional method of re
porting when their actual net
earnings are lower. This has
the effect of providing a high
er benefit amount at the time
the farmer retires.

"Mail Early’
request made
Postmaster Harry Moose re
minded Newberry residents to
day that there are only 22 naftil-
ing days before Christmas.
t “While that may seem a
long time to most people, it is
frighteningly short to those of
us in the postal service,” he
said. “Postmaster General O’
Brien has predicted that well
over 8 billion pieces of -mail
must be delivered between now
and Christmas Eve, a new rec
ord.
“We are asking everyone to
start thinking about their
Christmas shopping and mail
ing now. If all holiday mail
were to hit the postal system
at one time it is obvious that
we would have difficulty de
livering every piece in time.
The Newberry Post Office
expects to handle 500,000 pieces
of mail during the holiday rush,
the Postmaster said.
Mailing early and spreading
the mail flow out "along the
entire pre-Christmas season is
the key to better mail service
at this time of year.
Last year the public coop
eration was “tremendous,” acr
cording to Mr. Moose. Vhfoially
every piece of holiday i jpiail
was delivered before < Christ
mas day. This year witbi ip-
creased volume because of the
continuing strength of the
economy we are hoping to see
that fine cooperative spirit a-
gain” he said.
