Luxurious appearance throughout

r~ m

Distinctively fresh styling, increased comfort
and chassis advances that promise improved
operating economy keynote the conventional line

than any previous models, the presentation in-
cludes four Impalas, four Bel Air* (four-door
sedan shown above), three Biscaynes and five
Station Wagons. In addition, the Chevrolet dis-
play at dealer showrooms will introduce the

Social Security To
Adopted Children
Changes in the social security
law have made it easier for adopt-
ed children to receive monthly
payments, Erton F. Tate, district
manager of the Wichita Falls, Tex.,
social security office said today.
If you have an adopted child and
you are now receiving social
security retirement or disability
benefits, payments to the child can
start as early as September 1058, or
the date of adoption if this takes
place after September 1958. It is
no longer necessary to wait 3
years after adoption for benefits to
begin.
In some cases benefits may also
be payable to a child, not yet
adopted, who was living with and
supported by a worker who dies,
provided the widow adopts the
child within 2 years after the
worker's death, or within 2 years
after August 28, 1958
Anyone who has any questions
regarding paym e n t s to adopted
children should contact the local
social security office located at 421
Post Office Building, Wichita Falls,
Texas, or inquire at your local post
office and find out when a repre-
sentative of the social security of-
fice will be in your town.
Mr. and Mrs. Tom White were
in Tyler, Saturday attending the
Rose Festival, which is held each
year in that city, going via Wether-
ford, where they picked up Mr.
White's mother, Mrs. T. R. White,
and his niece Kay Hamilton who
enjoyed the trip with them.
Tell 'em you saw it in the Tribune.
The big change
is to an
ELECTRIC range
V
...because it's ACCURATE
An electric range takes the guesswork out ot
cooking. Measured heat electric surface
units give you exactly the same heat from
the same switch setting every time. The
electric oven is precision controlled to pro-
vide the precise temperature and cooking
time your recipe calls for. There's no need
for pot-watching and oven-peeking. With
accurately measured and controlled electric
heat, you can expect cookbook
results every time. See '
your local appliance
dealer soon for a
modem electric range.

and uncluttered ... as fresh and functional as modern architecture.
