VA. STVCE LIBSAE1 KICBSOMD 19. 23219 C l County Deer Kill Ahead of Last Last Season - - Despite Weather By Irvin Kenyon, Gome Warden The 1968-69 deer season opened Monday with the deer having the advantage of the elements. Even a night long rain which continued into the day could not dampen the spirits of the hunters opening day fever. Hie deer, however, apparently were content to sit tight until the weather started to clear. Opening day hunters are persistent however, and before the day was done many were successful. Robert Rutherford and Tony Moritz, both of Huntly, checked nice bucks. For Tony it was his second buck in as many years. Tommie Starks of Woodville and Jack Taylor both checked 8 pointers at Baldwins. Terry Rohebaugh, 8 points, Dorsey Rohebaugh, 5 points, both of Fairfax and Robert Crowell, 8 points, from McLean, were successful. In the Sperryville area Charles R. Jenkins killed a 13 pointer, Norman Woodard, Catlett, 6 points; Douglas Wallace, Luray, 6 points; Charles E. Jenkins, Sperryville, 5 points; and Tony Robucci of Hagerstown, Md., 3 pointer. Hie second day was rewarding to at least 2 hunters in the Flint Hill area. Tommie Jordan took a 16 point, 186 pound buck and Walter Krause got an 8 point, 161 pounder. These deer were weighed field dressed. Tuesday also meant venison on the table for Randolph Clater, 6 points, of Washington; Franklin Payne, 7 points, of Culpeper; A1 Byers, 10 points, McLean; Cletus Clatterbuck, 8 points, Sperryville; i Melvin Jenkins, 5 points, Castleton; Earl Lee Jenkins, 9 ! points, Castleton; Gary L. Kidwell; and Lester Alfred of 1 Reva with a 14 pointer. These are not complete figures for all deer killed and the number of points are not shown in all cases, however, the loose ends should be caught up by next 1 week. ] The overall kill appears to be 1 running ahead of last season even 1 though this has been a bucks only * season so far. There have been ' some fine racks taken and all deer ' seem to be running good size. John Marshall Clark was successful in getting a bear during last week’s season. There have been no hunting accidents so far and we want to ' keep it that way. Be sure of your f target. Also trespassing appears to 1 have been at a minimum so far, * which we hope to keep that way. * Remember permission must be * granted before going on any land.

County Students Participate in Area Children-Youth Sub-Conferences In preparation for the 1970 White House Conference on Children and Youth, meetings are being held throughout the country. In Virginia, division meetings are being held and Rappahannock County is a part of District III, Region IV which will meet at Eastern Mennonite College, Harrisonburg on Friday, November 22. Representatives from Rappahannock County High School are Carter Moffett, Janet Hackley, Terry Russell, Beth O’Bannon accompanied by Principal Dennis Wingfield and Guidance Counselor Richard Neff. Among questions included for discussion are To What Extent Should Youth Be Involved in Decision Making? Under this comes voting age, governmental policies and draft and military obligations. To What Extent should Society control individual rights of youths? Areas explored here will be sexual behavior, use of narcotics and harmful drugs, style of dress and general appearance. Others areas of concern will be ACP Shares in Tree Planting Farmers in Virginia planted more than 12,000 acres of trees under the Agricultural Conservation Program during the 1967-68 tree planting season. Tree planting is a long time investment which ultimately will add to the farmer’s income. And, in the meantime, the- growing trees will provide substantial conservation benefits by helping reduce erosion and flooding; stabilizing and improving water supplies, assuring clear, clean streams; and providing hunting and other outdoor recreation opportunities. Under ACP, the public shares I with fanners a part of the cost of planting trees and of other soil, water, woodland, and wildlife conservation measures. By sharing the cost of such practices, both The farmer and other taxpayers contribute to the improvement and conservation of the Nation’s vital natural resources. Both share in the benefit from this work. During the more than 30 years since ACP was first authorized, farmers in Virginia have planted more than 200 million trees under the program; throughout the Nation, farmers have planted close to 5 million acres of trees with ACP cost sharing assistance Further information about forestry practices approved for ACP assistance may be obtained at the county ASCS office. In Virginia ACP cost-sharing will be available in 1969 for such forestry practices as tree planting and timber stand improvement. legal protection and rights of children and youth strengthened or modified; How can society provide youth with the learning situations they want and need?; Tb what extent should today’s youth seek individuality and in what ways, if any, should adults become more involved in youth activities? There will be interest groups to explore individual areas of the symposium and an open forum in which individuals may submit questions to symposium Tiembers. Bigger Baby Crop Seen Coming Up NEW YORK, Nov. 16--A new baby boom appears to be in the offing in Rappahannock County. It will give an upward push to the birth rate, which has been sagging. locally and in other parts of the country, for a number of years. The expectation of bigger baby crops in the near future is based upon the sharp increase in the number of marriages now taking place. Ibe reports show that the marriage rate has been zooming in almost every area of the country. Nationally, in just the first six months of this year, the increase has boon more than 10 percent. Marriages throughout the United Stales appear to be headed for a 1908 total of over two million, which would be the most since 1946. And more marriages, in the normal course of events, mean more babies. The facts and figures are from the Department of Commerce and the Department of Health, Education and Welfare. In Rappahannock County, as elsewhere, there is a direct relationship between the number of births in any one year and the number of marriages in that year. The ratio locally is approximately 3.10. Ibe big increase in weddings in the local area has boosted the marriage rate to around 6.9 per 1,000 residents. This compares with 6.1 per 1,000 four years ago. 'Dial increase is expected to result in a rise in the next few years in the number of new babies, in proportion to the local ratio of births to marriages. Why the sudden jump in the number of marriages? The answer lies in the unusual number of young people who have reached marriageable age. 'Ibey are the product of the postwar period, when the birth rate was at an all-time high. In Rappahannock County, at the present time, there are some 579 young men and young (Continue on page 6)

RAPPAHANNOCK NEWS PUBLISHED THURSDAY MORNING At Washington, Rappahannock County, Va. Telephone: WASHINGTON 675-3349 MRS. SARAH C. LATHAM, Managing Editor Entered as 2nd Class Mail at the P. O. at Washington, Va. Subscription Rate (in advance): $2.50 per year in Rappahannock and adjacent counties; $3.00 elsewhere. Letter Copy of letter sent to: President, Humble Oil and Refining Co. Bala—Cynwyd, Pa. Dear Sir: Your ESSO dealer in rural Amissville, Va. is a most resourceful and cooperative fellow. During a recent weather emergency in Amissville, electric power was interrupted for several days and all service stations in the area were closed -• except the ESSO dealer, Elmer Jenkins. To overcome the lack of electric power for the gas pumps Elmer wheeled out his old lawnmower and pumped gas with it by means of a pulley and belt arrangement with the gas pump pulley. Although it took two men to pump gas, one to hold and run the lawnmower and the other to handle the hose, he pumped a lot of gas during those days! In addition, my previous experience with Mr. Jenkins has proven him to be unusually competent, friendly, and a distinct credit to his community. You are to be congratulated for your choice of dealers of ESSO products. You could find none better than Elmer Jenkins. During this period, Mr. Jenkins also demonstrated his cooperativeness by selling me a jackass on my ESSO CREDIT CARD for $25.00. Although this may be an infraction of your rules concerning credit card purchases, I hope you will overlook it in this case. It certainly illustrates the wide variety of uses of an ESSO credit card in the field of »' transportation!’ Sincerely, Roger P. Batchelder P. S. - We have named the jackass “ESSO’ Panther Tales By Steve Gore Saturday ten delegates from the SCA attended the Shenandoah Valley District SCA meeting at Strasburg High School. Group pictures for the annual were taken Monday, November 18. All the groups must have been in good shape because the photographer’s camera wasn’t broken. Senior students Carter Moffett, Janet Hackley, Steve Dement, and Wayne Deal submitted to the School Board Tuesday, November 10 proposals for places to go on the Senior trip. Carter Moffett, Beth O’Bannon, Janet Hackley, Terry Russell, Mr. Wingfield and Mr. Neff will attend the final District III, Region IV of Virginia 1970 White House Conference on Children and Youth. It will be held Friday, November 22 at Eastern Mennonite College at Harrisonburg. After the break from school because of snow most of the students were ready to return. It seems there wasn’t any electricity to run the television or the telephone. A warning to all students who plan to ride the pep bus to Elkton!

Her favorite expression is “Oh, cool it.” Janet plans to teach Sociology when she graduates from college. Her philosophy for life is “Eat, drink, and be menry.” “We’re not really such bad people at heart” is Janet’s reply to “What do adults misunderstand about teenagers the most?” James’ favorite song is “Jumpin Jack Flash” done by his favorite group The Rolling Stones. His major interest is girls. He plans to attend college. “Do your own thing” is his philosopy. ‘What do adults misunderstand about teenagers the most?” brought forth this reply, “that all teenagers are not social hangups and the majority live modem in a mad world to survive.” Rapp-Chats Bv W. H. Lyne Cxteaaloa A rent, Apleiltin The third quarterly summary Forage Test Results show that no samples, not any at all, had been tested for Rappahannock farmers! This is not good. Here we are in the second month of the final quarter and but one farmer has sent in a sample to be evaluated. Congratulations to J.A.B. Dahlgren. During August, September and October farmers from other Virginia counties submitted 149 samples com silage, 60 samples small grain silage, 49 samples other silage, 58 samples hay. Any and all Rappahannock farmers having hay or silage to feed this winter should get samples and bring them to this office for packaging and mailing. There is no charge. For sampling methods see “Feed Power”, Oct. 17th issue of the Rappahannock News. Okay? ***** The 1969 Animal Industry Day will be held at Virginia Tech July 25th. How’s that for planning ahead? ***** Monday night’s wintry blast forcibly reminded many of us just how unprepared we are. No lights, no heat, no water for better than 48 hours plus and many without phones or fuel. What, if a real disaster were to strike? You can bet your boots no one will be sent a R.S.V.P. engraved notice that such is on the way. And of course all of us hope such will not be. Have a full set of slides with accompanying transcript on Survival available to any and all organizations or groups. Just say the word and I’ll come show and read. Anywhere - anytime.

Just in case another electric current drought occurs, here are tips on what to do about food in the deep freeze: 1. Keep the door shut. To open it will let in hot air. 2. Fifty pounds of dry ice will hold a 20 cubic foot freezer filled with frozen food below freezing for 3 to 4 days; if half filled for 2-3 days. 3. Food will keep satisfactorily in most deep freezes that are in good operating conditions for 48 to 72 hours after the current goes off. 4. Some have an auxiliary power plant which can be brought into use. 5. Rappahannock Fanners Co-op and Culpeper Frozen Food Co-op agreed to store freezers and food (respectively) during this last current shortage, however we couldn’t get word to everyone. Radios were silent so this message aired by WCVA couldn’t reach people as fast as we would have liked. Blind Society Urges Hunter Eye Exam Virginia Society for the prevention of blindness urges hunters to prepare for their trek to the woods by having an eye examination Check the list: 1. Hiermal underwear 2. Rain repellant outer wear 3. Red cap 4. Warm socks 5. Eye examination - - -?! Unnecessary? Quite the contrary. Astigmatism, reduced field of vision, far and near-sightedness and color blindness are vision defects that countless hunters have without being aware of it. Each year the VSPB receives many reports of accidents in which hunters - and other persons - are blinded, seriously wounded and even killed because a hunter “mistook man for beast”, or because the hunter shot indiscriminately at anything that moved. Hunters who wear glasses are also urged to get SAFETY glasses, if they don’t already have them. Impact-resistant lenses protect the eyes against stray pellets, ejecting shells, twigs and other dangers, without reducing visibility. Another danger hunters are warned against is the wearing of sunglasses. Their use can cause reduced vision and make colors difficult to distinguish. Sunglasses should always be removed before driving home at dusk. The Virginia Society for the Prevention of Blindness is an affiliate of the National Society for the Prevention of Blindness, Inc., which was founded in 1908 and is the oldest voluntary health agency nationally engaged in the prevention of blindness through a comprehensive program of community services, public and professional education and research. J “In the old cotton Fields back home”, it was a thrill to hear the colored people singing, in a harmony peculiar to their race. TTie shadows are lengthening, soon it will be weighin’ and payin’ time, then to home and rest. One of the songs that echoes down the years went something like this - “On Monday He taught me how to love. On Tuesday wrote my name above. (Then a blessing for each week day till) On Sunday He gave me grace divine To let my li’l light shine”. Men are not stars nor sunlight, they like the moon need another light to shine upon them. How are we reflecting the light of God’s love, are we good stewards of Light, Life and Love?

Thanksgiving Heir Of Old Country Rites Thanksgiving reflects the * American spirit more than any | other holiday, although it was ' celebrated in the ancient world , long before a turkey ever graced a \ platter. ' The Old Testament refers to j many harvest festivals. Centuries j before the people of the Nile J learned to measure a year, they , gave annual thanks for the grain j crops that would carry them j through the hard months ahead, the National Geographic Society says. The ancient Greeks honored ' Demeter, goddess of growing things. The ceremonies were so important that warring states called a truce to observe them. The Romans carried on the tradition by saluting Ceres, the grain goddess. The word “cereal” recalls the deity. Plebeians sacrificed a sow to begin the holiday and continued with processions, dancing, and sports. In the New World, many Indians regularly practiced thanksgiving rituals. The Iroquois of New York State, for instance, still ceremu..ially :.c thanks for “blessings provided by the Creator for the enjoyment and well-being of mankind.” The Pilgrims remembered the harvest-home festivals of England and set a pattern for Thanksgiving in the United States as a day of worship, feasting, and family reunions. The holiday didn’t really catch on until the time of the Revolution, however. Throughout the war, the Continental Congress designated annual days of gratitude for victories. In 1780, soon after the Benedict Arnold plot was exposed, the annual message particularly thanked the Almighty for looking after the Commander-in-Chief “when treason was ripened for execution.” The tradition continued to find1 favor after independence. In 1789, Elias Boudinot, member from New Jersey, rose in the new Congress and proposed that the President recommend a day of i Thanksgiving for the successful j establishment of the United] States Constitution. President! George Washington set aside the] last Thursday in November. j But the holiday generally! became an off-again, on-again j affair until the Cicil War. At one time, people in various states celebrated Thanksgiving on separate dates and in eight different months. President Abraham Lincoln revived Thanksgiving as a national day in 1863. “Peace,” he said, “has been preserved with all nations, order has been maintained, the laws have been respected and obeyed, and harmony has prevailed everywhere, except in the theater of conflict.” There might never have been a national Thanksgiving holiday, if Sarah Hale hadn’t won over President Lincoln. A philanthropic widow, mother of five, and author of “Mary Had a Little Lamb,” Mrs. Hale also was the forceful editor of Godey’s Lady’s Book, the most widely circulated magazine of the day. For more than 20 years she crusaded for a November Thanksgiving Day. Finally, President Lincoln found her plea irresistible.

Member Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation Lion Eye Bank Aids Io Diseased Eyes Richmond, Va.; Dr. Walter , Mayer, Richmond Ophthalmologist and Chairman of ■he Board of the Old Dominion Eye Bank, recently explained to Lions Club Eye Bank Chairmen !rom eastern Virginia that corneal issue taken from the eyes of ieceased donors who had very defective eyesight can be used to restore the vision of many blind individuals. Mayer, speaking at the recent Bye Bank Workshop held in Richmond, said that astigmatism in the eyes of the donor normally has no effect on the cornea, the small lens-like covering of the pupil which is used in most sight-restoring transplant aperations. This, the most common of eye-transplant iterations, he said, is performed to restore the sight of blind individuals whose sightlessness is caused by diseased, damaged, or defective corneas. Often, such corneas become completely clouded, Mayer said, thus allowing no light to enter the victim’s eye. By removing the clouded or otherwise defective cornea and replacing it with the clear, healthy cornea provided by a donor, he explained, the blind person can often regain full sight. Mayer urged the Lions Club Eye Bank Chairmen to carry this message back to their local communities throughout the state and to urge all Virginians, regardless of the condition of their own vision, to join in the eye-donor crusade by signing an eye-donor pledge card. Such cards are available from any member of a Lions Club or from Old Dominion Eye Bank, 408 North 12th Street, Richmond, Va. The Eye Bank Workshop, which is held annually, was attended by more than two hundred Lions members from some one hundred and sixty Lions Clubs which support the Eye Bank. Safety Commission Files First Report John T. Hanna, Director of the Virginia Highway Safety Division, has announced that the first highway safety report from political subdivisions to determine eligibility for participating in Federal funds and grants was filed by Henrico County. Reports are due from all counties and cities by January 1, 1969. TTiey are to be compiled with the assistance of local highway commissions and submitted through the Safety Division to the Governor. Tlie L968 General Assembly enacted egislation requiring the formation of such commissions ind compilation of the report. The report was forwarded by Captain J. R.Lindsey of the Henrico Police, who is acting as Secretary for the Commission. Linwood E. Toombs is Chairman i»f the seven-member body. The report stated that the bounty was following, as far as possible, the guidelines recommended by the Division and hoped to implement all within a short time. Listed as the County’s most serious problems were a lack of driver training, the severity rate of crashes and citizen apathy. It stated that authorities were hopeful of obtaining aid in the first problem through Federal funds, that improved techniques of education, enforcement and engineering were being applied to the second and that the third was being met through stepped up police public relations with established groups. “Safety Town,” a project shared by Henrico and Chesterfield Counties and the City of Richmond, was mentioned. Ibis offers a five-houi course for children in pedestriar safety through the use of t miniature town. The report also mentioned use of the National Safety Council’s Defensive Driving Course foi adults through qualified instructors around the County. Mr. Hanna observed that the Henrico Commission is ar enthusiastic and hard working body. “Much credit goes to Mr Toombs, Captain Lindsey and the other members,” he said, “nol only for taking the lead ir reporting but for a most comprehensive analysis of the situation. Through county anc city highway safety commissions highway safety programs designee to correct local problems car reduce highway crashes.” OBITUARIES Mrs. Ethel Jenkins A funeral service' for Mrs. Ethel Virginia Jenkins was held Monday at 2 p.m. at Geest funeral chapel, with burial in the family cemetery at SperryviDe.

By Mary Jamieson r In Fletcher’s placid pig orchard, on last Saturday, November 16, a I sight was seen about noon, of , which you’ve never envisaged the [ Wild, Man, Wild! And it happened after the Hunt was . supposed to be over. Mr. Edwin I Bruce, strolling along his home ; route 620, glimpsed a fast gray shadow streak under the I orchard’s red gate across the road into the silo field. Immediately his ears were assaulted by the full cry of a pack of hounds led by one wild, primitive voice. Crashing down on him from the orchard above were 10 or 12 white and lemon-spotted hounds, noses skimming the terrain, ears flying. Competing for lead position, galloped a mounted figure, his long nose dilating, his bright eyes showing their whites, his teeth flashing as he emitted rebel yells. Mr. Bruce, a gentle man, stood aghast. Boars, sows and some 50 piglets squealed for dear life and splashed in every direction. Horse and hounds knocked over tin feeders, rushed over tangled rail panels, clattered onto slippery blacktop and streamed into the silo field toward Thornton River and the fox. Transfixed for several moments, Mr. Bruce resumed his ; measured walk to Sperryville. A quarter mile down the road, he was brought to another abrupt halt. Pouring into Henry Jackson’s yard was a reenactment of the whole show: first fox, then pack in full cry, vainly trying to run clear of foaming horse and rider. In spite of the hunter’s obsessed expression, he was recognizable this time around as Fearless Bill Fannon of Castleton, a recent convert to foxhunting. Bill was aware of nothing but the chase, not even the four followers he had picked up on the track: Huntsman and three Whippers-In. Natalie and Michael Marsh and young Charlie Brown. (Elzy’s son). Off they all careened up the mountain pasture and into the woods, where they were lost to Mr. Bruce’s eyes and ears as he continued his Saturday afternoon walk down the valley to SECOND CHAPTER If Bummy Thornton could have taken all of you up in his helicopter and hovered over the saddle between Big Top and Small Top of Turkey Ridge, you would have seen the second act of this comedy. Cast of characters: Same as aforementioned as being in hot pursuit. The unusually far-ranging gray had set a hectic pace around two big circles, up there on the topside, before diving deep into his home earth. The hunter, d—d if they’d be outfoxed by a mere gray, sent down to Thornton Hill for excavating equipment. Dickie Deal, (who now drives the Rappahannock Hunt’s hound truck and is general liaison man,) volunteered for supply detail. He packed up the steep slopes all necessary shovels, picks and lubricants to initiate Operation Dig-Dig. Hounds infuriated by the evasive ploy of their fox, were scratching and yelping at the den’s mouth. Bill Fannon, on his knees, was clawing right there with them. Michael Marsh took charge, tying five hounds togethei on the thong of his wife’s whip, the rest of the hounds, he strung together on Charlie Brown’s whip, and handed them to this 5-foot-2 inch tower of stalwart determination. Michael spoke soothingly to Bill Fannon anc succeeded in calling him off. Bill) Dodson, Michael anc “Bill-Hound” Fannon took uj tools and made dirt fly. The) want that fox and how! Spark: suddenly flew and iron rang out suddenly, their shovels hit rock-t huge rock, a boulder, in fact. I was located at a turning in th< channel of the den. Our digger became frantic; they would no be thwarted. They dug, pried, clutched and pulled. All at once, the rock surfaced. Michael gave a furious curse and a mighty kick. The heavy dragon-rock started to roll downhill past the leashed bounds, exuding its fresh scent of fox. This was too much for alert noses of hounds. They went blind with excitement. They thought rock was fox. Natalie’s contingent broke loose, rushing at the rolling rock. Staunch Charlie, built firmly and fully packed, bit his lower lip and threw all of his 110 lbs. into a tug of war. His hounds toppled him onto his stomach but could not break his grip. There went Charlie, with rosy baby cheeks and grimly set mouth, Iragged by a straining team of rampant hounds, over a sea of fallen leaves. For no mean distance, rock, hounds and Charlie went scudding and bouncing down the hill. Everyone, limp with laughter, eft the mountain to the idmirable gray fox. FINALE Sunday, November 18, Bill Fannon, considerably subdued, was riding all over Flappahannock, this time in his itation wagon, looking for lishorse. Bill’s bay, found Bill’s enthusiasm so contagious, he umped out of Marshes’ paddock where he had been put for a little rest after the day’s hunt. He wanted more chasing. Not until Sunday late afternoon, was he found by the sharp eyes of Jack Bruce, in Trooper Willis’ Sperryville Pike pasture, where he was calling on some ponies. N.B. Mrs. A. C. Randolph was quoted recently in the National Observer as saying, “It takes all lay to do two things: to have a baby and to go foxhunting.” In Rappahannock Hunt territory, :t seems to take two.

Marsh, Jr. in speaking at the dedication ol the Charlottesville-Albemarlc Workshop, a local self-helf program to assist the handicappec said, “the Charlottesville effort is a landmark project that deserve; the serious consideration anc study of other communities ir the State.” The Charlottesville Workshop has as its purpose the training ol individuals who are mentally 01 physically handicapped in ordei that they might be gainfully employed. Marsh said, “the effort is significant in several differenl wavs: “First, it was principally a local effort, although some federal funds helped to get the program underway; “Secondly, there was the active support and cooperation ol business and industry, which found the Workshop a source ol very reliable and dependable employees, and; “Tliirdly, and most important, there was the amazing success in working with the students at the Workshop.” Ibe Charlottesville Workshop has demonstrated the tremendous potential of people who are handicapped and the great contribution that they can make to their family and their community if an investment is made in a training and education program designed for them.” The 7th District Congressman said, “that the CharlottesvilleAlbemarle program should be examined and considered by other areas of the State because it has proven what could be done at the local level and the great benefits that could be achieved from a modest investment.” “Tli is is a step in the right direction,” Congressman Marsh said, “and businessmen, educators, governmental leaders and trade association officials from across the Commonwealth should study carefully the Charlottesville-Al be marie Workshop and duplicate it many dmes elsewhere.” BABY CROP— (Continued from Pane li women in the age bracket that produces most marriages, 20 to 25.

Security Notes The social security amendments of 1967 have made many changes and improvements in the medicare program according to Mrs. Hazel F. Daly, social security District Manager in Winchester, Va. One important change, Mrs. Daly stated, is that more people will be eligible for hospital insurance benefits. Under the old law, people who reached 65 in 1968, and were not entitled to monthly social security or railroad retirement benefits, could not get hospital insurance benefits unless they had 6 rMifirg ■rtamMrfTa mwWwm We Can Supply All Your CULPEPER BUILDING & SUPPLY CORP.

Now, under the lew law, this requirement has leen reduced to 3 calendar juarters, or about 9 months of .vork. The amount of work needed to qualify for hospital insurance benefits after 1968 increases by 3 quarters each year. Eventually, for those reaching 65 in future /ears, the amount of work required for hospital insurance protection will be the same as that required for monthly cash t>enefits. However, if you qualify for monthly benefits as a dependent nr survivor of an insured worker, /ou will not need any work under social security. Play it safe. If you’re nearing 35, get in touch with your social security office and get the facts. Mrs. Daly further explained that persons who plan to continue working when they reach 65 should also apply within the three months prior to the month in which they have their 65th birthday.
