I will not leave you com
fortless.—(John 14:18).
If we feel any sense of de
pression or sorrow, w T e should
realize that the joy of Spirit
is always with us. The joy of
the Lord is a well-spring within
us; all of God’s joy is in our
heart waiting to come forth
into fullness of expression.
The happiness of God’s pres
ence removes all darkness or
discouragement.

Special Assistance Provided
For Returning Veterans
While a wide array of bene
fits are available to today’s ve
teran, special assistance is pro
vided the young veteran with a
limited education who faces a bl
eak future.
Veterans Administration offi
cials in the VA Regional Office,
Atlanta, no longer wait for the
new veteran to come to them for
assistance. In an effort to be as
helpful as possible, the VA now
attempts to seek out each edu
cationally disadvantaged veteran.
Securing their names from dis
fense Department, the VA sends
out letters to the new veterans
and follows up by making tele
phone calls or personal calls.
■When the veteran comes in
for guidance, the VA explains the
various benefits available, in
cluding GI education benefits wh
ich give the veteran from $l3O
to $175 or more a month while
he completes high school.
The VA pointed out that high
school training under the G. L
Bill does not reduce eligibility
for advanced educational bene
fits.
Provisions have been made
in the G. I. Bill so a veteran
can also attend a trade school,
take correspondence courses, go
to college, enroll in farm co
operative training, or take on
the-job or apprenticeship train
ing.
While these educational bene
fits are available to all qualified
veterans who served after Jan
uary 31, 1955, Viet-Nam era ve
terans with a limited education
can get a special "transitional
appointment” to work for the
Federal Government if they go
to school at the same time.
Government agencies are now
Thursday, November 7, 1968
hiring the Viet-Nam era veteran
(who served after August 4,1964)
without having him compete with
others for the job. However, the
veteran must:
♦Have the job qualifications re
quired.
♦Have less than one year of
training beyond high school.
♦Agree to take at least the
equivalent of one full year of
education or training leading
at least to high school diplo
ma or its equivalent.
The veteran can take this tr
aining under the G. I. Bill and be
paid a VA educational assistance
allowance in addition to his go
vernment salary.
Since all veterans do not want
to take further training, they are
informed of their re-employment
rights, of any state unemploy
ment compensation which maybe
available and of veterans prefer
ence in government employment.
They are also given help in
finding a job.
The VA urged veterans to con
tact their nearest Veterans As
sistance Center or VA office
whether they want to go to sc
hool, take further training, or get
a job.
Dental Research
Dr. Willis Moody of Georgia
Tech’s School of Ceramic Engin
eering has received a renewal
grant of $35,458 from the De

Welfare to continue his work on

develop a restorative material
which can be used effectively in
tooth repair.
