THE BOSTON STORE
Bernard A. O'Hara, manager,
Veterans Administration Regional
Office, Wilkes-Barre, has urged
Korean veterans planning to start
school this fall under the Korean
GI Bill to file their applications now.
VA said it expects some three-
quarters of a million veterans to be
in schools and training establish-
ments this fall term.
By applying early, veterans can
help prevent delay in processing
their papers, VA pointed out.
Application forms may be ob-
taine at any VA office. The com-
pleted application, along with a
photostat or certified copy of the
veteran’s separation paper, should
be ‘sent to the nearest VA Regional
Office. The papers should not be
sent to VA headquarters in Wash-
ington, D. C.
To help school-going veterans
make their arrangements in ad-
vance, VA issued a check-list of
steps that must be taken before
they enroll.
The first item is the choice of a
goal, and of a traning program that
will lead to the goal. VA explained
that since the law allows a veteran
only one change of program, he
should make sure he chooses cor-
rectly.
The second item is for veterans
who are not sure about their GI
training goals. These veterans may
request vocational counseling to
help them arrive at a sound choice.
They need only fill in the appro-
priate space for counseling on VA's
GI training application form.
The third point cautions veterans
to be sure the course they plan to
take has been GI-approved by the
State in which the school is located.
This information is available at any
VA regional office, but not at VA
headquarters in Washington.
The fourth point urges veterans
to complete arrangements for ad-
mittance to their school before filing
applications with VA. This step,
VA said, will save time and trouble
for veterans, for they must know
beforehand whether they can meet
the school’s requirements for ad-
mission.
The fifth point asks veterans to
send their applications to VA as
soon as possible, after they have
completed arrangements for admit-
tance with their school. This will
enable VA to iron out any snags
that may develop before school
starts.
The sixth point instructs veterans
to check their VA applications care-
fully before mailing them to VA.
VA said an incomplete application
can cause delay because: VA will
have to write to the veterans for
the missing information. Each ap-
plication must, of course, be ac-
companied by a photostat or cer-
tified copy of the veteran’s separ-
ation paper.
The seventh point involves vet-
erans with dependents. VA said
these veterans should have the
necessary proof of dependency
when VA requests it. For a wife,
this would mean a photostat of the
marriage certificate and, for a child,
a photostat of the birth certificate.
The eighth point has to do with
finances. VA urged veterans to
take along enough money of their
own to tide them over the first two
months of training. It takes that
long, under the law, for a veteran’s
first monthly check to reach him.
The reason is that payments can
only be made after each month of
training completed, and not before.
Further, before VA may make a
payment, it must receive a certifi
cation signed by the veteran and
his school, stating that he has been
in class all month. The law allows
VA 20 days after receipt of certifi-
New Favorite
Is Toggle Coat
For outdoor wear, the toggle
coat, styled after the Austrian
Loden coat, rates the vote for
most likely to succeed for high
school girls. It’s finger tip
length, comes in a variety of
colors and fabrics, and teams
ideally with separates for
schoolwear.
Usually there’s a detachable
hood that adds a touch of glam-
our as well as protection for the
ears.
_ For cold winter days, your full
length coat will follow the slim
look with back or side belts con~
trolling the sweep.
The most fun for fall is the
spirit of Tyrol that has invaded
the fashion world. Prints in
bright reds, yellows, blues and
greens are delightfully charm-
ing and seem to reflect the hap-
py, carefree life of their country
origin. They are festooned with
garlands of delicate flowers,
‘hearts, and gaily dressed boys
‘and girls. Look for dresses, quil-
ted skirts, blouses and jumpers
in the Tryrolean mood.
CORDUROY IN PRINT
Corduroy, always a popular
back-to-school fabric, extends
its scope this year, and is attrac-
itively printed and patterned for
jevery-occasion wear.
EXTRA SHOE LACES
Smart mothers will keep extra
jshoe laces on hand for prompt
|replacement of those broken by
impatient school youngsters who
don’t know their own strengtii.
The final point applies to vet-
erans in training. VA reminded
them that they and their schools
must submit the monthly certifica-
tions as soon as possible after the
end of each month of training, so
that VA may pay them their GI
allowances on time.
