Vets Will Receive
$4 Million Dividend
From Life Policies
An estimated 93,261 Georgia vet
erans who hold participating GI
life insurance will receive $4,536,-
600 in regular annual policy divi
dends during 1959, J. M. Slaton
Jr., manager of the Veterans Ad
ministration Regional Office in At
lanta, announced .
Mr. Slaton said this represents
Georgia GI policyholders’ proper-1
tionate share in a national 1959 di-i
vidend total of $256,000,000 declar-l
ed recently for participating GI ■
insurance.
He explained that the dividends
are primarily a refund to policy
holders of part of their premium
payments, and are made possible
because the death rate among GI
policyholders continues to be low
er than the tables upon which the
premiums were established by law.
Policyholders are requested not
to make dividend inquiries in ad
vance, since this would delay pro
cessing time, Mr. Slaton stressed.
A breakdown of Georgia GI poli
cyholders’ proportionate share in
the 1959 dividend declarations
shows that 89,100 veterans holding
participating policies in National
Service Life Insurance (NSLI),
which originated during World
War 11, will receive $4,230,000 in
dividends.
The other group, 4,161 veterans
holding participatnig policies in
U. S. Government Life Insurance
(USGLI), which originated during
World War 1, will receive $306,-
iOO in dividends.
Dividends will be paid automati
■ally as soon as possible after the
mniversary date of each policy
luring 1959, For example, if a
policy was issued any September
I, the anniversary date will be Sep
ember 1, 1959, Mr. Slaton pointed
out. He added that dividends will
oe paid to holders of both term
and permanent plan participating
NSLI and USGLI policies.

DAD PUTS UP THE TREE I
By Eunice Cassidy Hendryx
George pierson’s first
thought when he stepped off
the bus was, "The kids are right.
Ours Is the only gloomy place In
the block." Windows in all the
other houses were ablaze with ev
erything from lighted wreaths to
glittering Christmas trees. No
wonder the children protested
against following the old custom
Aunt Maggie Insisted on—not put
ting the tree up until Christmas
Eve.
Suddenly he recalled the nick
name he had given his old aunt
years ago, Aunt Naggie. What a
dolt he had been to make the kids
give in to her. Well, there would
be no more of that!
As soon as dinner was over and
Aunt Maggie had gone to her
room, he announced dramatically,
‘‘We’re going to p it up the Christ
mas tree!"
‘‘Right now?” Jimmy demanded
‘‘Right now.” Dad promised.
“Hooray! Betty shouted
"Let’s do it quietly." Mother
suggested, "so it won't bother Aunt
Maggie. We will let it be a sur
prise to her."
"I think she will like that," came
from four-year-old Susan.
Five pairs of hands got busy
shoving the furniture around to
make room for the tree.
‘TU bring it in,” said Dad.
“Jimmy, you run down to the
basement and get the stand.”
Mother offered to bring the box
es of lights and ornaments down
from the attic. Betty and Susan
hurried to their room to get their
beribboned gift packages.
Mother held the tree while Bet
ty called Dad up from the base
ment. Finally, Jimmy returned
with the stand.
Betty helped Mother sort the
sparkling trimmings and screw
bubble lights into the sockets. Jim
my produced a ragged extension
cord which he declared was still
good. Susan crawled under the
tofa to recover a ball of red yarn.
How Well Do You Know Your America?

The majority of Americans will readily Identify the famous faces
above—but do you know the name of the monument, and where it is
located?
The great sculptural work shown above is referred to as ‘‘The Shrine
of Democracy.” Gutzon Borglum, artist and sculptor, planned and su
pervised the monument, financed by contributions and Federal funds.
Busts are proportionate to men 465 feet high. From the top of Wash
ington’s head to tip of chin is 60 feet. Rock is ageless granite; busts are
of Washington, Jefferson, Theodore Roosevelt and Lincoln.
This monument —the Mt. Rushmore National Memorial—is one of
the most photographed monuments in the world.
A *1 ,500,000 building program here includes new 2,000 seat amnhl
theatre, concession building and dormitories. New 500-car parking lot
was completed last year.
Location; Rapid City. South Dakota.
SOME LIKE IT HOT ... Tony Curtis relaxes with his daughter
Kelly Lee, 2, between “takes.” He’s wearing costume for his role
•s sax player In "Some Like It Hot.”
1 Dad had a hectic time fitting the
' tree into the stand. He was sure
Jimmy had sprung it. His patience
i was practically exhausted before
: the tree stood fairly upright and
■ secure.
Jimmy strung the light cords
* around while Mother and Betty
hung the glittering ornaments on
the branches.
“Don’t you want to help us, Sus
an?” Betty asked.
“Sure I do, but I had to wind
Aunt Maggie’s yarn first,” Susan
answered as she placed the big
ball on the table. “I’ll hang the
icicles,” Reaching high, she fell
against the tree and over it top
| pled. Balls and lights tumbled
about. Fragile ornaments broke
into tiny pieces.
Dad mumbled something about
Aunt Maggie being right after all. ]
Susan burst into tears and the ,
noise aroused Aunt Maggie who ,
came and stood stiffly i” the door
way.
“Just putting up the tree.” Dad’s
voice held a hint of defiance.
“Really,” Aunt Maggie replied
tartly. “If you don’t mind, I’ll get
my knitting.” She spied the ball
of yarn and fairly pounced upon
it.
“I wound it up nice for you,”
Susan boasted.
“Merciful heavens,” the old
lady exclaimed, “you’ve complete
ly ravelled the mitten I had almost
finished.”
With the tree once more safely
moored. Dad directed, “Start the
music, Betty. Susan turn on the
lights.”
Lights bubbled and a chorus of
voices sang. “God rest you merry,
Gentlemen, let nothing you dis—
ma —a ay.” Wires crackled,
sparks flew, and the room was
thrown into darkness.
Out of the dark, Aunt Maggie’s
voice cackled, “Let nothing you
dismay.”
And in the most un-Christmassy
voice, Dad retorted, ‘‘You’re
darned right we won’t."
