PENSION BILL
CARRIES MANY
REGULATIONS
Mere Sixty-Five Years Will Not
Bring A Monthly Check
Of Thirty Dollars
LAW SHOULD BE WE'LL
STUDIED BY APPLICANTS

Those who have been entertaining
the idea that the mere fact of their
having reached the age of three score
and five, will entitle them to qualify
for the Old Age Pension, are riding
for fall. There are other things to
be considered.
The Board of State Aid and Chari-
ties has been overwhelmed by those
who are casting longing eyes on that
$50 per month; but Samuel E. Shan
nahan, chairman wants the public to
study the conditions of the law. and
then perhaps the Boards mail box will
not be stuffed to over capacity.
1t seems as if citizen has got to
be very poor and destitute to have his
monthly check. He must have no re-
sources himself, and his relatives must
not be rolling in wealth either. If
the applicant has children or parents
with means, then the pension is not
forthcoming.
Investigations are pretty rigid, and
evasions of the law are severely pun
ished. There is a possibility the law
might develop some situations similar
to those that obtained in other relief
measures. Frequently, jobs were
turned down in order to be eligible
for relief. The Pension law gives OPP
portunity for one to relieve oneself of
certain unremunerative property in
order to pauperize oneself and thus
draw the thirty dollars per. This ac-
ton is warned against as being pun
ishable as a criminal offense.
Then there is the question of citi--
zenship and the character of it. Felony
debars one from being aided. The
would-be pensioner must have resided
in the State for five years within the
past ten, and he must have been a
citizen of the country for the past
fifteen years. He cannot conceal any
of his resources by bank savings, in.
surance or deposits; these will be in
vestigated.
So it can be seen that the road to the
treasury of the State pension fund is
not smooth one, even should the
81, 100000 surplus from the fund of
general relief materialize. Those who
want aid should study the law.

COW
ON DISPLAY AT
STATE FAIR

Sycamore Cammelia Governess, the
youngest Ayrshire cow in the world
to ever complete lifetime record of
more than 100000 pounds of milk and
1000 pounds of butterfat, will be on
display as a feature attraction at the
Maryland Fair at Timonium. This
noted animal, which is generally re-
garded as one of the greatest dairy
cows of all time, is member of the
Sycamore farm herd of Mrs. E. R.
Fritsche, of Douglassville, Pennsyl-
vania, who bred, raised and tested her.
Although only ten years old this
unusual COW has given birth to nine
calves and has produced a total of
107, 450 pounds of 4.09% milk and
4400 pounds of butterfat, and has
averaged during her eight lactations
13,447 pounds of milk and $50 pounds
of butterfat. In addition, she was for
years the worlds record senior three
year-old heifer. At no time was she
MIXED more than three times daily,
and during her first lactation, she
was kept on a twice-a-day milking
schedule.
An interesting collection of early
dairy utensils, including a
stone milk pan more than one hundred
years old, will be displayed with this
famous cow before scenic back
ground that promises to make it one
of the feature attractions of this fair.
