COMMUNITYROOM
The Howe State Bank has
made its community room,
the large at the south end of
the building, available to the
public for and gathering such
as Sunday School class meet-
ings, family reunions or any
other gathering where its use
is desirable, stated Mr. Cleon
L. Hamilton, bank president.
This will be on a first come,
first served basis, that is, get
in touch with the bank, let
them know the time1 wanted
and if it is not already as-
signed to some one else, you
can use it free, the bank even
furnishing the utilities. There
are tables and chairs to seat
40 people with a small kitchen
with stove, sink, refrigerator
etc. If the room is used as
an auditorium, there is ro <m
to seat 80 people, but addi-
tional chairs would be needed.
This is a great asset to our
town and The Enterprise re-
quests that the room be care-
fully cared for while in use
if various groups.

NEW BABY
Mr. and Mrs. James O.
Fuller are the proud parents
of a son, James Odell Junior,
born May 28 in the Methrdist
Hospital in Dallas. The young
man weighed in at 8 pounds,
one and three-forth ounces.
Mother and, son are doing fine
His grand parents are Mr.
and Mrs. Homer O. Fuller of

Bird of Sherman.

Mrs. Emma Me Coy is m
Sherman Community Hospital
differing with a broken pelvis
bone. She fell Monday in
Sherman braking the bone.
We trust she will have a
speedy recovery.
“Even though an applicant
may not be found eligible for
social security disability in-
surance payments, he stdi
may have gained an advant-
age by filing claim for these
b» nefits,” said Gus Jones, so-
cial securty district manager
at Sherman. He explained
that applicants are referred
to the State Vocational Re-
habilitation agency. These
agencies have helped many
disabled persons to overcome
their handicaps and become
self-supporting.
He also stated that the re-
quirements for disability pay-
ments under the social secur-
ity program are: (1) that the
individual has worked for at
least five of the ten years
before his impairment pre-
vented him from working;
and (2j that his condition
be one that prevents him
from doing any substantial
gainful work.
Jones cautioned that appli-
cation for disability payments
must be filed within 18
months after the disability
began, since any further de-
lay could mean a loss of
benefits.
“The fact that an individual
has been found eligible for
cash disability benefits does
not mean that he can never
work again,” Jones sad. “The
social security law provides
that his payments will con-
tinue for a trial work period
and he may receive payments
for as long as twelve months
after returnng to work. In
this way, the law encourages
a disabled beneficiary to re-
turn to work if he can possibly
do so.”
Jones pointed out that de-
pendents of disabled workers
may also be eligible for cash
benefits and stressed the fact
that the law also provides
benefits to the disabled sons
and daughters of workers
who have retired or died. In
such cases the son or daugh-
ter must have been disabled
before age 18.
He urged persons having
any questions about this part
of the social security program
to call at the social security
officee in Sherman for further
information.
