As WE SEE IT, President Eisenhower's
~ "People-to-People" Program is worthy
of far more than the mere lip service it has
come into since it's inception back III the
Fall of 1856.
Surely anything aimed at gaining good
will for the United States on the ever chang
ing international scene should long ago have

Refund To Lodge, Nest

. Our campaigners will be
happy to know that the pro-
poser awards have been in
creased considerably on Sim
gle Premium business. Each
$1,000 of new coverage brings
you Immediately $40 or 20
campaign points.
And, despite the fact that
the member has already re-
ceived a fantastic bargain, he
gets another break in that he
does not have to wait two
years for a dividend but get
it after but one full year of
membership.
And, again despite the low,
low price of this insurance,
provision has been made for
a ten cent per month refund
to the local lodge or nest.
Headquarters will refund the
$1.20 at the end of the year
to the members lodge or nest
and this will be done each
year until maturity of the
certificate.
We want to point out here
too that the 80 cent admins
trative expenses have also
been taken into account
Therefore, as attractive as
the rates are on the first

pealing on additional cover

. In the past three weeks
we've presented a facts and
figures analysis of our Junior
Order certificates which can
be purchased on the Single
Premium basis.
We demonstrated that be-
cause the member (parent or
grandparent) paid a one, lump
sum premium the Society can
Immediately put that money
to work and therefore ask for
a total figure much smaller
than that which you would
pay in small monthly contri-
buttons over a period of years.
That, simply, is the mathe-
matical secret" for the bar
gain in Single Premium rates.
Let us now detail the other
salient features Of this new
business and answer some of
the questions that you might
ask.
Is a special application
form needed? The answer is
no! The same form that ap-
plies to you for the monthly
dues type payments is also
used for Single Premium.
Of course, it is understood
that the full amount, in the
form of a check, must accom-
pany the application because
the certificate, when issued,
attests to the receipt of that
money.
Canadians should remem-
ber that their checks have to
be in Canadian funds.

the following to say about

troller:
"This weeks testimonial

former state officials a n d
others who have been active
in state politics for the past
Is years.
1t was a representative
group, although not unexpect-
edly it was primarily repre-
sentative of the Aiken Gibson
wing of the Republican party,
with a good springling of De-
mocrats, or a sprinkling of
good Democrats whichever
way you want to put it.
We've been to quite a few
of these testimonials through

action that" this one for Peter

warmth of feeling and atmo-

when such an occasion arises
that it is used for a dual pur-
pose to pay respects to the
guest of honor and at the same
time to make a little political
hay for some other deserving
aspirant to position of prefer
ment.
This time, it didn't seem to
be that kind of a party. The
purpose was to pay tribute to
Peter without any Interior
motive in advancing t h e
cause of anyone else.
The occasion, of course, was
recognition of Bove's appoint

for which he is well qualified
by his experience in the law

Care In Harvesting Grain May Save
Large Percentage OF Grain Profits

The average farmer will lose
about l0G of his small grain
profits but with little care
these losses can be reduced. says
EaSley S. Smith, assistant agri-
cultural engineer at vPI.
He lists poor adjustment and
operation Of harvesting and hand
ling machinery. rodents. insects,
and molds. as among the top
causes Of losses in grain.
Here are his suggestions:
Harvest early. Each day you
delay after grain Is r.pe increases
the risk BY using bin drier. you
Will be able to gain about a week
on grain harvest and it may mean
better prices if the early market
is good.
Adjust the combine. The aver
age farmer loses about 81 of his
era during combining This loss
can b reduced BY careful adjust
ment and operation.
You can check the amount Of
loss by making a frame one foot
square and placing it on the
ground behind the combine and
counting the kernels OF grain
within it. If you count so kernels
Of wheat within the frame. you
are losing merely bushels per
acre Cl8 to 20 kernels Of wheat, IA
