Periodic examinations are required until the annuitant reaches age 60, unless, in the meantime, it is found that the disability is of a permanent nature. A finding of permanent total disability may be made upon the first or any later examination and will eliminate the need for any further examination unless circumstances warrant. Q. Must the annuitant pay for these medical examinations? A. NO. TIIE GOVERNMENT pays for the examinations.

In case a disability annuitant recoven, what is his status? A. Upon recovery before reaching age 60, his annuity is continued temporarily (not to exceed one year) to give him an opportunity to find a position. If he is reemployed in the Govern- ment service within the year, annuity stops upon reemployment. If he is not so reemployed, the annuity stops at die expiration of the one-yeperiod. Q. WHAT HAPPENS TO a disability annuitant whose earning capacity is restored? A. Even if he remains totally disabled, an annuitant whose earning capacity is restored before he reaches age 60 (not after age 60) will have his annuity discontinued. If earning capacity is restored, the annuity is continued temporarily (not to exceed one year). If he is reemployed in the Government service within the year, annuity stops upon reemployment. If he is not reemployed, the annuity stops at the expiration of the one-yeperiod. Q. When is a disability annuitants earning capacity considered restored? A. EARNING CAPACITY is considered restored if, in each of two consecutive calendar years, the annuitants income from or both, is at least 80 per cent of the wages or current salary of the position from which he retired. For example, if his earnings are equal to or more than the 80 per cent figure in 1964 and 1965, he is considered restored to an earning capacity. If he meets the 80 per cent figure in 1964 but not in 1965, then he is not considered restored. Q. Does the restriction on eamings apply to an annuitant who has been found permanently disabled? A. Yes, if he is under age 40. ar tteaty. Materrib cat e tobhend pbK0A3 ar opaonoBDO. GOLD t9 1"" ' ' ; A-CDA- 9 D3 PWT DUTTOR CDVOCOOIL run IfaataklA T99HQD19 rrvsn BIG 24 OZ. 44 QZ. BOTTIE MR.

Always take a boat along for distance swimming and- - of utmost importance - know your ability (dont try to show off) and never dive into strange waters. Be certain YOU know what to do if you should get into trouble while in the water. BOATING SAFETY starts with a safe boat t, clean and Equipment varies with the size and type of boat. Check local and Federal laws and ask the Coast Guard Auxiliary for a free boat safety examination. Now that you are certain you have a safe boat, the next step is safe handling of your boat.
