MR. & MRS. HOME OWNER
Do you employ a cook, cleaning woman or other
domestic worker in your home for one or more
days per week? If so, you are paying them more
than fifty dollars per quarter in wages, and you
should be withholding and paying Social Security
contributions for them. Your failure to do this
denies your employee his right to receive Social
Security benefits for themselves and their
dependents in later years. We urge you to obey the
law and help us to improve human relations in the ,
Augusta Area.

When shoplifters steal from a store they're actually stealing from YOU!
Eventually you, the honest customer, will have to pay higher prices to
moke up for what they steal.
Next time you spot a shoplifter in action, notify the store manager fast.
You'll be protecting your own interests, and those of alt your friends.
Most shoplifters ore small-time operators, but if enough people give
them the recognition they deserve, they won't operate at ail.
