 AND ANSWER

QUESTION: I am going to re- tire in the next few months. Is there anything l can do to speed up my social security benefit check?
 ANSWER: Yes, find out from your local social security office what proofs you will need and have them with you when you file your claim.
 QUESTION: My husband passed away about 10 years ago. Would waiting until Pm 65 make 1t possible for me to receive a greater amount of so- cial security than at 62? Pm not working at the present, and haven't worked long enough to qualify for any social security on my own account.
 ANSWER: Waiting until 65 to file for widows social se- curity will gain you nothing. The amount of the widows payment is 821e per cent of what the husband would have been eligible to receive. And. this 82h per cent is paid at the age of 62-there is no re- duction. If you're over the age of 62, we'd like to suggest that you contact your social security office immediately and He your application. You. should bring your husbands social security number with you, a certified copy of your marriage certificate, and some document to establish your age or date of birth.
 For more information about social security: Write to Social Administration. Box 1851, Juneau, Alaska.

 In a more serious vein and this comes in the form of in- quiry, we wonder how much Alaskan history is taught in the schools of our state.
 The state which was once the largest in the U.S.-TeXas-in- cludes it as a must and there is not single child who goes through elementary school in the Lone Star state who can't recite every detail in the life of Sam Houston or give you blow by blow description of the Ala mo, and it seems to stay with them throughout their lives.
 Consequently each Texan is sort of a walking and often to our disgust talking one man Chamber of Commerce.
 Over the years we have probably gained much and lost much in this profession of educating children.
 It wasn't too many years ago that the daily class program opened with a pledge of allegiance to the American flag and the sing ing of the national anthem. It cer. tainly didn't harm any youngSter And do you recal when you had to memorize the 48 states and their capitols. We'll bet that half dozen seniors in the graduating class from last year here or any. where else could not do that.
 Then there were such require mentS as reciting the dreary "Thanatopsis" as a requirement
Kodiak mirror., 1962-08-24

for graduation from the eighth grade.
 Probably none of these could be justified in the light of modern education but on the other hand, it might be pretty difficult to jus tify the fact that you can't read the handwriting of 90 per cent of to- days graduates; few are real good spoilers; fewer still can add col umn of figures and get the right answer; and in this move towards a one-world one per cent of the seniors can't tell you what states border Kansas or Illinois.
 * #
 And final note on schools.
 Having taught few years our selves, we are appreciative of the plight of today's teachers. Frankly, they do not get the CO., operation and help from the par ent that the teaching profession did years ago. Discipline prob lems can't be solved by threat ening to fail the high schOOler or report him to his parents.
 It is evident that Kodiak has good schools. If they weren't good, it would be one of the first things a newcomer would be told about.
 The Board of Education has q thankless job at the best. Their work is never appreciated and if something goes wrong they are the first to be condemned.
 We have been told that Dr. A. Holmes Johnson was instrumen. tai in keeping the building pro- gram moving ahead as a board member, and other members of the board with an assist from Rep. Pete Deveau were instru- mental in keeping the salaries up.
 Give these people your sup port and welcome the new and old teachers back in Kodiak. They carry on the most under rated job in American society.

Dear Fellow Citizens:

Nearly 5000 years ago Joshua said .. As
far as me and my house, we will serve the
Lord. Joshua made stand when he said these
famous words. He will long be remembered for
the stand be took.
The time has come when the people of
columbus County need to stand-up and be count
ed and to start thinking about where their
future lies
who Is going to rule our children and the
land on which we make living? Do we
decide for whom we're going to cast our vote
or do we let some politician buy votes? When
we sell our vote then we have no control over
who rules our children and our land.
There are two things that should come be-
fore money. First. our Creator and the Church
We serve to worship our Creator: and second
the freedom of casting our vote and voting for
whom choose.
1t does not matter whether we are q Demo
crat or Republican: butit does matter whether
We are willing to- take stand like joshua
Decide for Yourself.
