April 15th. Due to conflicting
dates and illness the crowd was
smaller than usual, but everyone
had a good time. After the lunch
was over, President’ Erma conducted the business meeting: The

Atchinson, It contained a little
hurricane lamp. Fern Hoagland,
Bea Leonard, and Elsie Prentiss

to little Johnny Bradshaw, who
will soon be a year old. There
were no anniversaries this month.
When it was time for the bingo

Veterans’ News
A saving of up to two-thirds
in their GI insurance costs can
be made by those veterans who
served in the Korean and postKorean period whose insurance
policy numbers are preceded by
the letters “RS,” the Veterans
Administration says.
These approximately 500,000
policyholders may exchange their
present five-year term policies
for new term policies that carry
the same face value at a greatly
reduced premium cost. These
savings are made possible by a
continuing improvement in mortality ratés resulting from a
lengthening of the life-span.
The new policies are not renew-.
able after the holder has passed
his 50th birthday but must be
converted to a permanent ‘plan
before that date if he wishes to
continue protection beyond that
date. In all other respects they
carry the same protection of the
present policies, :
This restriction is considered
to be in, .the best interests of
policyholders in order to avoid
the heavy increase in renewal
term rates in later life.
The VA. added that holders of
the present term policies also
have several plans of permanent
insurance to which. they can convert immediately. However, the
premiums. for permanent plans,
while they never increase, are in
a higher bracket than term insurance.
Veterans not wishing to incur
the expense at this time of the
permanent type plans can save
money while waiting by exchang_ hg their original term policies to
the new low-cost type, VA said.
Both the present and the new
term policies can be converted
at any time, without physical examination to a VA permanenttype plan.
Full information can be secured
by contacting any VA office, or
by writing the VA office to which
premiums have been paid.

SLIDING FOR HOME
How to dramatize in a graphic
way the distance required to stop
a moving vehicle has been a problem. with safety. experts. Here is
an idea suggested by researchers
for the Murine Company: Supposing a pitcher in a baseball
park was summoned from the
center field bullpen 400 from
home plate. He climbed into a
car so that it was going 60 miles
per hour as it passed the center
fielder 300 feet out from the
plate. At that moment the driver
decided to jam on the brakes and
he pressed hard on the brake
pedal all. the way. home. Did he
stop at the plate? No, he did not.
The car traveled 60 feet between

ing down the pedal. It would require another 300 feet to stop the
car if it were traveling on dry
pavement, On the grass . . . who
knows? But under the conditions
related above, the car would surely plow into the screen behind

Many of our California judges
have possessed rare talent” for
vivid, colorful expressions. One
of them was Associate Jystice
John E. Richards of the Supreme
Court.
The estates. of Thomas and Teresa Bell of San Francisco consumed much time of the probate
and appallate courts over a period of 33 years. Thomas died in
1892 ,leaving a large estate. Most
of it was distributed to his widow
in 1917. She died in 1922. Her
will was declared invalid upon
the ground that she was of unsound mind. Numerous persons
claimed to be her heirs.
In an opinion dated January
29, 1926, Justice Richards said:
“The purposes, motives and conduct of persons both living and
dead, whoses lives and actions
are interwoven in the tapestry
of this remarkable case,, are
vieled in mystery as to the meaning of whcih we only gain occaof the cold record before us.”
