number of short-lived newspapers
were established at that place,
some of which were removed to
Caldwell when the county seat
was changed to this place, but
each survived for only few years
with a number of changes in own
ership of each.

Workers Should
Check Security

Workers over IS years old who
have been employed during the
summer months but are no longer
working should visit or write to the
GAINESVILLE office of the Social Sc
curity Administration as soon as
possible to avoid losing Social Sc
curity payments, Robert B. YOU
mans, manager of the GAINESVILLE
office, stated today.
Payments under the federal old
age and survivors insurance provi-
sionS of the Social Security Act can
be made for those months in which
an insured worker earns not more
than $14.99 in jobs covered by the
Act, Mr.. Youmans explained. If the
worker fails to file an application
he may lose some of the payments
| which he could have received if he
applied for them.
| "Back payments are limited to a
period of three months before the
application is filed. Seasonal work
erS frequently lose payments be-
tion, although all other require
ments have been met" Mr.. YOU
mans said.
IL Is important THAT every WoTheT
who has been working in jobs COW
cred by the Social Security Act
should get in touch with our office
to discuss his rights when he reaches
the age of IS, whether he intends to
keep on working or not'', Mr.. YOU
mans stated. ''The same is true in
case of a workers death. The next
of kin should promptly discuss the
case with the local Social Security
office"

vile office is in the post office

CONFIDENTIALLY

In order to prove his point about
the wonders of the Caldwell high
school band, George Walker, only
until recently of Caldwell, travelled
with his successor to this area, a
distance of ITS miles to see the
Byesville- Caldwell football game,
and also to see the band in one of
its grand performances. Upon their
arrival here on the appointed Tues
day night, to their disgust they were
informed the game was postponed
until the following Thursday night.
Nevertheless, George is doing his
utmost to promote another star per-
former for the Marvin P. Wood ag-
gregation. We predict that George
will meet with success, since his
craftsmanship is of the superior type.
Mr.. Walker sells the Agrico brand
of fertilizer, and like all good fert-
ilizers, it is just as good as the
man representing the product.
Another trouble with the world
today is that too many people make
their joys mere incidents and their
sorrows great events.
The secondary state highway
roads in practically every section of
Noble county are giving way to fall
thaWing and heavy trucking oper-
ations. State Route 564 more IA
miliarly known as the Caldwell
Harriettsville road, really is taking
beating, and little is being done
about keeping the highway open to
normal traffic. A jaunt over this
highway only proves what we con-
tend. This situation is deplorable,
since this road provides for Cald-
well one Of its main trunk lines for
county business. A check on the
map would cause one to believe that
it serves approximately one-fourth
of the area of Noble county. 1t is
quite obvious that Caldwell busi-
ness is letting the ship go by" for
it can feel the loss suffered when
traffic is hampered from vending
is way toward Caldwell. It is only
natural to accept that the state
kitty" is benefiting abundantly
from the revenue spent by traffic
that operate over this highway. We
feel that a little money spent on
such highways and less on the super
highways leading to nowhere"
would give the forgotten man a new
lease on life. The rural population
was sorely neglected during the war
years and from all indications his
chances to get something now in
the way of little ,nsideration for
his highways seem nil.
