Rebekahs Honor
Grace Currie
Mt. Heart Rebekah Lodge met
Thursday evening of last week with
slightly better attendance, but many
members were reported ill or to
have illness in their homes.
Among business items decided
were a contribution to the foreign ex
change student fund and the joint
sponsorship of a page in the Memo-
log with the American Legion auxil
iary in the interests of the Girls
State program.
A report from the social committee
showed a small attendance at it, al
so. The next meeting is set for No
vember 2, the first Tuesday in the
month, at the home of Mrs. Sallee
Brown at 8:00 p jn , It was empha
sized that all lodge members are
members of the social group also and
should attend meetings because it is
at these that many plans for lodge
activities take shape. This allows
time for making such plans without
making lodge meetings too lengthy.
After the meeting, refreshemnts
of apple pie and ice cream were
served by Mrs. Cass Bergerson, Mrs.
Janet Bemardi and Mrs. Irene Min-
ger who was acting for Mrs. Arlie
Emmons who was out of town.
A special highlight of the social
hour was a birthday cake baked by
Mrs. Sallee Brown laden with light
ed candles which was placed before
Grace Currie in observance of her
eightieth birthday. She also was
showered with cards and gifts. Sev
eral others received secret pal gifts
in observance of birthdays occurring
this month.
At the next meeting, October 28,
the first nomination of officers will
be held. Second nomination and elec
tion will take place November 11.

Insurance Cut
For Non-Smoker
A new non-smokers policy has been
pioneered by Farmers New World
Life Insurance company, a memher
of Farmers Insurance Group, ac
cording to Lloyd Quinn, local Farm
ers agent.
The policy, introduced during Sep
tember, makes life insurance avail
able to non-smckers and to former
cigarette smokers who have not
smoked for the past two years at
lower premium rates than those of
fered to smokers.
Farm ers’ development of the new
policy was triggered by the mount
ing proof cf the relationship between
cigarette smoking and death. Studies
showed that the mortality rate for
male cigarette smokers for all caus
es taken together is nearly 70 per
cent higher than for non-smokers.

Protest Urged

2.9 percent for a few large indus

percent for the majority of their
wholesale customers. The increases
