(UPI) World War I Veterans May Mature Policies World War I veterans with GI insurance may mature their policies to avoid pyra miding premium costs, accord ing to Elmer W. Donahoo, Jackson county veterans serv ice oliicer. This docs not apply to Wnrlrt War II insurance poli cies, he pointed out. World War I policies iaen Ufiorf hi iho Iptter "K" before the policy serial number can be matured on a snowing oi total and permanent disabil ity. vvv,ii not pverv WWI vet eran who satisfies this condi tion can qualify to mature nis nn harm is done by applying," the veterans serv ice officer pointed oui. many who do apply may find they do satisfy the requirements to mature their burdensome term policies." Annual Premium increase nnnahnn exDlained that every five years the annual premium increases. ror ex ample, during 1962 the pre mium for veterans who are r will he fin vpars old will jump from S20.79 per S1.000 of insurance to sju.ou, or about a 50 per cent increase. The increase for those now 65 vears old will be from Slio'60 to $46.78 per $1,000. The leap at age 70 is from S4S.75 to S72.77. At age 75 the premium goes up to $111.16. That means on a $10,000 policy the annual pre mium is $1,229.20. "If you do qualify to mature your policy, you may cease to pay premiums for life, and still carry the full insurance amount. Or, you may cease to pay premiums and elect to re ceive a fixed monthly income of $4.75 per $1,000 of insur ance. This means you will slowly reduce the policy value as a death claim," Dona hoo said. Veterans with permanent "K" policies are not faced with pyramiding premiums as they become older because they paid more when they were younger. However, they may also mature their policies by qualifying as permanently and totally disabled. Necessary forms and assist ance in making the applica tion are available at the coun ty service office in the annex of the Jackson county court house in Medford, Donahoo noted.

When we learned to speak English well, they put us to term in Texas in the 1880s. rose as a strong supporter of education and religion. He led a drive to optn the school in 1889 with less than 100 pupils. By 1910, enrollment had grown to 300. It closed In 1920 when the Kiowas, adapt ed to the new culture, were capable of regular school situ ations. The Indian school classes were for a half day. The stu dents worked crops and cattle the rest of the time and the school was largely self-supporting. A s t e a m-powered pump moved well water to tanks that gravity-fed the dormitories, classrooms, ad ministration housing and live stock troughs. Fighting Indians Young Kiowa braves were drilled as soldiers and many good fighting men of World War I learned to replace the war dance with the cadence count here. In many respects, this southwestern Oklahoma school was a military academy for the boys. It surely had an impact on both boys and girls. "When the teacher cut my hair (long braids) I was cer tain I had lost my language," said Mose Poolaw, one of the first students. "And those shoes. I couldn't remember from day to day how to put them on. Most of the time I went around with shoes on the wrong feet." Poolaw, and 11 other Rainy Mountain alums, now teach at the University of Oklahoma Summer Institute of Linguis- A 5 tics. White men now are in terested in learning more of the language and ways of the original Americans, including Kiowas, before they lost their braids and moccasins at Rainy Mountain. ... on all strvict and repair work!

THE MOST TRUSTED NAME IN TELEVISION ommm stores 112 South Riverside Moving Soon to the Medford Shopping Center San Francisco Is Air Conditioned Area Year Round By RODNEY GUILFOIL United Presi Intarnational San Francisco (UP11 A visi tor once remarked that San Francisco is the only city in the country where it's neces sary to turn on the steam heat in summer. The visitor made the com ment on a night in July while wearing a topcoat against the wind that buffets the city all summer. When most people think of sunny California, they're real ly thinking of sunny southern California. San Francisco makes no claim to having a balmy, subtropical climate. It boasts it is the "air-condition- ed city." Here is a typical day in June, July or August: at day break, a blanket of fog man tles the residential areas lying close to the ocean. The fog gets higher downtown and be gins to break up somewhere over the East Bay. Pleasant Afternoons The unwary visitor might figure to wear a heavy suit or dress. But he will be fool ed. Because about mid-morning, the fog will begin to break up and by noon, down town San Francisco will be a pleasant 68 or so. Even so, a breeze will warn of what's to come. Late in the afternoon, the fog will begin to swirl through the Golden Gate and in a few hours it will again mantle the city with its gray blanket. The fog horns will begin their mel ancholy warnings and the vis itor will find himself grabbing his hat to keep the wind from blowing it away. The weatherman has a tech nical explanation for the fog. In brief, it is formed by the cool air rising from the ocean. The Golden Gate is one of the few points along the northern California coastal range where it can pour inland. And that is why San Francisco gets so much of it. It is surprising how many visitors to San Francisco don't know about the fog. Men ar rive wearing seersucker suits and women wearing cotton dresses, and both wearing white shoes. That's the mark of the tourist. The truth is that people wear pretty much me same ciotnes the year around in San Francisco. Sun Nearby Suppose a San Franciscan wants some sun? He can go less than 15 miles north, east or south and he'll find all he wants. Once away from the fog belt, the temperatures in the suburbs ordinarily hit the 70s or the 80s. In the state capital at Sacramento. 90 miles away, a typical summer day will find the mercury in me nign aus. San Francisco women are noted for being highly fash ion-conscious, and it's the cool climate that is responsi ble. True, they don't like the wind or what it does to their coiffures, but they like being able to get dressed up all year round. Women wear furs at night in July and August. So the person visiting San Francisco is well advised to pack warm clothes. And what will he find? He ll arrive in the midst of a heat wave. The residents will be moaning and longing for the fog to re turn. And be advised that a heat wave In San Francisco takes place anytime the mercury rises to 75.
