H & H Dry Goods
To Begin Final
One of Silsbee’s oldest dry
goods firms, H & H Dry Goods
Co., will begin a final closeout
of all merchandise tomorrow
(Friday), Sept. 5, according’to
Howard Hargrove, owner.
Hargrove first established a
store at the location of the
present H Sc H on Jan. 1, 1946,
when he bought the contents of
grocery which occupied the
spot at that time. After dosing
out the grocery, he opened the
dry goods store in March, 1946
and has operated the business
at the same address continu-
ously since that time.
H & H Dry Goods is located
at 335 North Fifth Street in
downtown Silsbee.
Saturday, Oct. 3, has been
set by Hargrove as the dead-
line for clearing out all goods
from the building.
Hargrove told the BEE that
he has no definite plans for the
future, other than to close out
everything from the store.
Veterans News
Q. My husband died recently
and the VA paid his insurance
to his former wife even though
they had been divorced 15
years ago. Why was this done?
A. The VA is required by
law to pay the insurance to the
person last designated as bene-
ficiary by the insured veteran.
Your husband either neglected
to change his beneficiary after
the divorce, or it was his wish
that the insurance be paid to
the former wife.
Q. Is it necessary to report
compensation or pension from
the VA as income if I am de-
ceiving VA penson?
A. The person receiving the
compensation or pension di-
rectly from VA nepd not report
it as income op his pension
claim. However, if th# money
wps paid by the VA to someone
elpe and received by the pen-
the sioner by inheritance or gift
from that person, then it
should be reported as income
for pension purposes in the
same manner as other proper-
ty received by gift Or inheri-
tapee. _
