Oxford Historical
Foundation Met
September 26th
There was a special meeting
of the Oxford Historical Ceme
tery Foundation, held in Oxford's
City Hall, Tuesday, September
26, at 7:30 P. M. All officers,
trustees and board members
were urged to attend this very
important meeting. W. A. Carl
ton, the president, presided.
A little less than three years
ago, the ladies of the Oxford
Woman’s Club helped to organ
ize The Oxford Ifistorical Ce
metery Foundation and became
its sponsor. Working with the
Town of Oxford, their alm was
to restore, clean and beautify
this historic old cemetery.
This required money, a lot of
it. These ladies worked hard,
wrote many letters and soon
began receiving money for per
petual care from many lot own
ers and from others came en
ough to pay for annual care. As
the money began coming in, it
was placed tn a Savings Fund,
from which only the interest
could be used for this work.
Many families from a distance
came to see for themselves just
what was being done and always
expressed joy and appreciation
for the unbelievable change which
had taken place on their lot-
A trusteeship was set up with
five very capable young men ser
ving as Trustees of “This Ir
revocable Fund.”
Some of the members of the
Historical Foundation had worked
up a set of rules and regulations
patterned on those in use by
Westview Cemetery in Atlanta.
They were presented to the City
Council of Oxford and accepted
by them for their use In giving
the proper care to the cemetery
here in Oxford.
Mr. Wilbur Harwell presented
a copy of these rules to each one
attending this meeting, so that
Labor Statistics Arthur M. Ross
and Assistant Secretary of Labor
for Manpower Stanley H. Rutten
berg, are that:
— Most of the drop in job
opportunities was for production
workers, including tool and die
makers, machinists and welders,
while demand for professional,
technical and managerial work
ers remained heavy.
— If the recent pickup in
economic activity continues, a
resuregence in the demand for
all types of workers can be ex
pected.

May Earn Extra
Money On Jobs
“How much can a person earn
and still receive his social sec
urity payments?” Is a frequent
question in the Atlanta social
security office, district manager
John H. Ingle said today. Ingle
explained that under the present
social security retirement test,
a person who does not earn
over SISOO In a year can re
ceive all of his social security
checks for the year. If a bene
ficiary earns between SISOO and
$2700 in a year, $1 will be with
held from his checks for every
$2 he earns over SISOO.
When annual earnings go over
$2700, benefits are reduced $1
for every $1 over $2700. “But,
there are a couple of important
exceptions to this rule,” Ingle
added. A beneficiary can receive
his check for any month in which
