Sample Chicken
For Long Hours

SALISBURY Maryland-(H)-
1t will be a long time before any
body in Salisbury, Maryland,
eats any more chicken. They have
sort of had enough, for while.
The community has just wound
up the fourth annual Delmarva
chicken fcStival-three days Of
chicken eating. There was every
kind of chicken, roast, fried, boil
ed, baked, pressurizcd. casserol-
ed, smothered, fricassied, and
even barbccucd.
The barbecued chicken won
first prize for Mrs. Aubrey Rom
she, Of Snow Hin, Maryland, in
the national embarrassing con
test. That was part Of the festi-
val.
The people least likely to cat
chicken for some time to come
are the judges in the cooking con

to send Conley to prison.
Instead, he suspended SEN
tence and directed Conley to pay
back the $4,000 in weekly pay

Palmer kiWanis Club Plans Ladies Night To Be Held Feb. 26

hold Ladies night on February 26, President Hugh Johnson an- nounced today. Plans call for a gala evening with a formal in stallation of new members of the club and program of entertain ment. Tom Day will act as chair , man of the program committee, 1 taking over for Dr. F. Sims, who will be absent during that time. Mir. Day will be assisted by Dr. Allan Mick, Herb Schmidt, Roy Brock, Marvin Slaughter and other Xiv anians MT. Day may appoint
 Arrangements for the Ladies night were discussed at the reg ular dinner meeting Monday, at tended by 23 members of the club. Financial secretary Harlow Hodgson reported that 31 mem bers have paid their semi-annual dues. He reminded delinquent members that last notice on dues will be sent within the next few days. Failure to pay the dues means that the delinquent mem Der will be dropped from the roster, MT Hodgson explained.
 Other discussion included a good progress" report by Xii wanis Minstrel Show director Joe Hudock. Most of the music has arrived, materials for costumes have been ordered and lights are now being made to create new lighting effects for the show, Mir Hudock said. Emil Ganschow re- ported that the KiWanis invita- tional basketball tournament will be held March l, 2 and 3. Most of the teams planning to play in the tournament have already reg istered, MT. Ganschow said.
 Other business included Presi- dent Johnson's announcement of the March of Dimes Talent Show which the Kiwanis co-sponsored here with the Beta Sigma Phi sorority. Mir. Johnson also an- nounced course of instructions for men to act as medical aids which has been started here by the Matanuska Valley Nurses As sociation. Max Sherrod is instruc- tor for the mems course.
 At the regular board of direc- tors meeting which immediately followed the dinner meeting Monday night, 16 members were in attendance. A lively discus sion centered around a proposed membership limit and improved attendance. Comments made at the meeting indicate that the club has reached its maximum size for available facilities.
 Potential members are ask ing for the opportunity to join the Kiwanis Club, which coupled with limited facilities means that the Palmer KiWanis Club will have to tighten up on its attend ance requirements if the club is to continue to serve the com mdnity to best advantage" it was stated at the meeting.
 President Johnson stressed that all members of the Kiwanis Club are invited to attend the regular board meetings and to participate in discussions affecting club pol icies. He added that attendance at the board meetings is one way of making up necessary absences from other meetings.

Be Finance Wise

at Life With Father" But the
same situation is not apt to be en-
joyed offstage, in a day when wom-
en- are expected to acquit them
selves creditably in the realm OF
finance.
Years ago. of course. women
couldn't hold property, and such
a thing as loan granted directly
to q woman was unheard OF, Mrs.
Vera Rhine, assistant vice presi-
dent OF the Union Trust Company
explained. In her 26 years in the
banking business, however, Mrs.
Rhine doesn't remember any won1-
ans being refused a loan simply
because she was woman. Mrs.
Rhine began her career with the
Morris Plan Bank, which pio-
neered In the field Of consumer
credit, giving small personal loans
to individuals. In 1947 that bank
merged here with the Union
Trust Co.
It Is true that women have an
impressive amount Of the nations
wealth to handle today, Mrs. Rhine
pointed out, and equally true that
women do not trust other women
when it comes to handling it. When
they want some one to administer
it, they get a man.
Seventy per cent of the women
may own the nations money, but
they don't control it," Mrs. Rhine
declared. They do know more to-
day about how their money is being
handled than they did formerly,
however, she added.
The advice Of experts-female
as well as male-is as important
in building up a healthy financial
scheme as q doctors for phySi-
cal health. Yet familiarity with

It is wise to establish yourself

"trip to the new accounts depart
ment Of your bank starts the ball
rolling. Some identification is re-
Iquired. to protect you as well as
the bank. Ordinarily, a drivers
license along with a government
pass will be sufficient, or a social
security card together with posi-
tive Identification.
Specialists in banking advocate
keeping a checking account from
the time you first have money to
manage. The new type makes it
possible, too, to have such an
account without maintaining the
substantial balance once required.

is vital to cover emergencies. and
to build up a fund for important
purchases and projects. And it
earns interest, which helps the
fund grow.
A banks biggest headache
aside from accounts deliberately
overdrawn-is the joint account,
Mrs. Rhine reported. Inherent
in sharing an account, Of course.
is the possibility of accidental
overdrawal. One solution to this
is for a couple to have two ac-

Generally speaking. a version
Of the joint account such as that
described above is the best thing
for a man and wife. Mrs. Rhine
believes. For example, some
think it is hard to get money
when there Is a death. but this

Ineed not be true. With the joint
account, the survivor has access
! to the money, although this
doesn't mean that all of the
money is hers. or his. From that
point on, the survivor is re-
sponSible for the payment Of taxes
and other claims on the money.
Joint ownership of a safe de-
Iposit box enables the survivor to
have entry to the box Immediately
after the first entry is made by
the inheritance section of the COL
lector of taxes Office, Mrs. Rhine
added. II a person has a box in
his name only, nothing can be
done to get into the box, after the
special tax agent has had first ac-
cess. until a properly qualified per-
son is designated by the court. # a
person has a single-name box and
has named some one as deputy,
that deputy's right to enter dies

rangements to cover this have
been made.
Many people think it is diff
cult to get loan at a bank, but
this In not the case. Also, people
usually seek a loan in the case of
dire emergency. But there are
other less desperate circumstances
when 1t may be wise to borrow,
too. One sum of money from the
bank can cover debts accumulated
In several places, save ones credit

the yearly income is sufficient toI
cover the payments. A loan
amounting to 10 to 20 per cent of
ones income may be made, de-
pending upon the purpose for
which 1t was requested. A steady
income is necessary. but 1t need
not be personally earned.
The would-be borrowers credit
rating is checked, and the decision
about the granting Of the loan
made shortly-perhaps in as little
as "a hours. In many banks
today, 1t Is not necessary to have
an account there to secure a loan.

I
To Mrs. e. H., Falls Church
re: New yard with poor drainage
1t would be. well worth your while
to install drain tile along the main
gullies which form in your yard
Simply dig a shallow trench from
the head of the gully to an appro-
pirate outlet, test with hose to be
sure the water drains out properly,
install tile and cover with soil.
The installation is simple and
really rather fun. Cover the
cracks where the tiles are laid
Iend-to-end with narrow strips of
tarpaper to prevent dirt seepage
from filling UP the tile. The dirt
on top holds the tarpaper in place.
Drain tile is cheap.
With proper drainage estab-
lished. getting grass to grow would
be no trick. To hasten germina-
tion Of seed, use the hormone
product which comes in small en-
velopes. Faster termination, of
course. means less danger Of the
seed washing away.
The best time for planting many
things Is now, though fall will
also do well for many things. For
your cheap hedge: Search out
friends who have not yet pruned
their forsythia and beg the cut
tings from them. These root
easily and grow very rapidly. I
have a hedge Of about rs bushes
which were grown from cuttings
last year, and they bloomed this
year. You can simply stick the
cuttings in the ground, but the
product mentioned above will help
assure success. Do not be dis
couraged when the cuttings ap-
pear to be dead, they will revive.
Good luck. Learning to garden
Is such fun.
