Changes Reported In Social Security Benefits To Workers Some important changes have e and been made in the survivors' insurance program as a result of the Social Security amendments of 1958 which Pres-deEisenhower signed into law on August 28. All of the changes, directly or indirectly, affect the American public as a whole. Working persons employed and ed need to know about them and their families need to know about them. Most important, because it affects practically all working peoinple and their families, is the crease in benefit amounts. This applies to those now getting benefit payments and to those who will become beneficiaries in the future Most monthly benefit checks will be about 7 percent higher, with a minimum increase of at least $3.00 in the amount payable to a worker who retired at age 65 or later. The maximum monthly payment a family may receive is increased from $200 to $254 per month. Families now receiving maximum monthly benefits under the law will receive increases of from $7.50 to $54, depending upon the deceased workers average monthly wages. Social Security taxes will be increased beginning with 1959. An employed person will have 24 percent taken out of his pay perinstead of the present 2 cent; his employer will contribute 2M percent also. The social security tax will be increased 38 of 1 percent, and will become 3 34 percent of net earnings up to $4,800 in the people will year. rate for this increased at pay the year 1959 with the tax return made early in 1959. Watch for further information regarding the 1958 amendments to the social security law. old-ag- nt self-emplo- y Self-employ- A Pound -- Kent Meeting Thursday On Power For Area Presents Many Problems That Heeds Pugh Feted At South Ward Testimonial Sunday K Howdy, KHS students really enjoyed the 5 day holiday provided l?y the teachers convention.

Its wise, therefore, to be familiar with the steps to take should fire break out in your car, as outlined by the National Fire Protection Association: 1. Turn off tha ignition, and if possibla disconnect tha battery. 2. Gat avaryona out of lha car. 3. Call tha nearest fire department. 4. Fight lha fire with tha proper type extinguisher. If your car isnt equipped with the prescribed 'Class B type of commercial extinguisher, you should at least keep a pound box of baking soda in the glove compartment. Its a precaution that costs but a few cents. Working from windward on the outside of the car, dump the soda on the base of the fire. When heated, the soda releases carbon dioxide or carbonic acid gas which smothers the flames. A word of warning. Never use water except ' fur a fire in the upholstery, for water will spread the fire.

The Kanab Cowboys played their 2nd home game of the season Jast Tuesday, Sept., 31st? Theylost the ball game 34 to 7 to the Dixie Flyers of St. George. For the first half of the ball game it looked like Kanab might be in the game, for the first time this year. I dont mind saying that we looked like a ball club for the first two quarters. In fact we held Dixie down better than we have any other team, the score at the half was 14 to 7 for the Flyers, but we came back on the field after the half and it looked like an entirely different team. We didnt resemble the Kanab team that had walked off the field only fifteen short minutes before. In fact it looked as if this question was running through each players head, who yants to play football, we have the uniforms that is all that counts isnt it?
