Senior Citizens Urged to
Make Use of Aid Program
Columbia County Judge Earl N.
Seawright stated this week that it
has come to the attention of the
county court that only about 10 per
cent of those qualified for Medicare
have signed up for this service and
the court wishes to advise those
qualified that the agent for Social
Security Administration is in the
sheriff’s office of the county court­
house every Monday from 9:00 a.m.
to 12:00 noon. Those qualified should
Clear Address
Aids Delivery
One of the biggest problems pos­
tal employees face is illegible
h a n d w r i t i n g . At C h r i s t m a s
time, when mail volumes skyrock­
et, this can become a major prob­
lem, Postmaster Bateman states.
“The use of ZIP codes by mail­
ers does help speed up the pro­
cess because often if the city and
state are unreadable the ZIP code
will direct the mail to the post
office from which it will be de­
livered. Clerks in that post office,
being more fam iliar with local res­
idents, may be able to figure out
the person to whom the mail should
be delivered.
Another significant problem is
the number of parcels delayed or
actually undelivered because of
poor wrapping or packaging. Post­
master Bateman urged that special
care be taken to see that each
package is tightly stuffed and that
nothing rattles around inside.
Parcels are generally shipped
in bags and often heavier items
rest on top of sm aller, lighter
packages. The postmaster encour­
aged mailers to be a bit cautious
and insure all packages.
All parcels should be addressed
on only one side and should have
the address written somewhere on
the inside of the package in case
the exterior wrapping should come
off. It is a good idea to also en­
close a list of the contents.
Poor packaging and illegible or
incorrect addressing accounts for
about half a million undelivered
parcels each year.

The court would also like to make
senior citizens aware of the following
tax exemptions on property tax that
are available to them. If they would
like these tax discounts they should
call the county tax office any time
Monday through Friday from 8:30
a.m. to 5:00 p.m.
Those that have incomes under
$2,500 per year qualify for these ex­
emptions covering these age brack­
ets: 65-68, 10 percent; 69-71, 30 per
cent; 72-74, 50 percent; 75-77, 70 per
cent; 78-79, 90 percent: 80 and over,
100 percent.
He stated that the county court al­
so advises those senior citizens
whose income is $128 or less per
month of their eligibility for suplus
food. He feels that they should be
encouraged to take advantage of
this county program because it was
established primarily to extend their
incomes.
