BEST WISHES to Mr. and Mrs.
Macri, owners of Overbrook Inn,
who became parents of twin girls,
Nicole and Lauren, on July 24. The
two pink heart balloons adorning
the Inn are sure appropriate since
I’m sure these little darlings have
captured their parents’ hearts.
Congratulations!
MY
GOODNESS,
what an exciting
week with the
Tiger Hunt in
Nicholson. One
wonders if there
actually was a
giger sighted, if
the cat was
actually a tiger JOAN
or if there KINGSBURY
actually was a cat. Oh, well, it
caused us all to wonder a little,
anyway.

PROFESSOR LEE WILLIAMES
AND HIS WIFE, FRANCES of
Trucksville have returned from a
fantastic nine days in England
where they had the visit of a
lifetime.
Lee, a professor of History and
Director of the Honors Program at
College Misericordia journeyed to
Newcastle, England to present a
paper to the British Society for
Research in Higher Education.
Following the educational
conference, Lee and Fran toured
the country visiting such varied
places as Stonehedge, the Roman
Wall and the Tower of London.
Renting a car, the couple traveled
throughout the beautiful English
countryside, meeting the very
congenial people, enjoying the
delicious cooking, staying in
charming country inns like the
Crown Head built in 1630.
They also visited southern
Scotland, where the heather,
although not in bloom, abounded
with a fragrance much like lilacs.

LEE AND FRAN are not the only
traveling in Europe this summer.
Their daughter Elizabeth is now
visiting near Vienna as part of a
Wider Opportunity from Girl Scouts.
Traveling with 12 other scouts,
Elizabeth will tour the Alps where
she will spend two weeks camping
and hiking.
Her high school German is
coming in handy since tickets have
to be purchased, signs have to be
read and every day chit chat can be
helpful if understood.

Special to The Dallas Post
Some of the advertisements that
appear in newspapers and
magazines may lead some people to
believe that Social Security asks for
a fee in exchange of the services it
provides.
This is simply not so. Social
Security never requests and would
never accept a fee for any of its
services; conversely, anyone who
does request a fee in exchange for
Social Security-related information
does not represent us. Yet, some
people do pay for information that
is freely available from any Social
Security office.
The confusion stems from the fact
that some private businesses that do
provide information for a fee use
the words ‘Social Security” in their
names. Whether or not this is a
deliberate effort to confuse the
public, the result is the same: Many
people are led to believe that these
companies are affiliated with the
Federal Government and, in fact,
represent Social Security.
These businesses often operate in
a gray area that may be difficult to
define as either legal or illegal;
however, Social Security can and
does take action when it appears
that the public may be confused
about whom or what these
companies actually represent. For
example:

Women across America are
moving into the business world by
learning income tax preparation
skills.
Learning a skill like income tax
preparation is a good way to open
up career opportunities and help
save money at tax time, as well.
H&R Block, the world’s largest
tax preparation service, is offering
a basic income tax course starting
September 3rd and 4th with morn-
ing and evening classes available
Courses are ideal for those want-
ing to develop a new practical skill
or for those interested in challeng-
ing themselves. No prerequisites
are required to enroll.
Classes are held over a 13 week
period. An experienced Block
instructor will guide students
through all phases of income tax
preparation. Classwork will
include discussion, practice prob-
lems and actual experience pre-
paring individual tax returns. New
tax laws will be explained.
Skills learned in the H&R Block
Income Tax Course could be the
key to entrance into the business
world and a way to earn extra
money or qualify for a possible job
interview with H&R Block.
Employment with Block can mean
flexible hours, a plus for many
women with children at home.
Block, however, is under no obli-
gation to offer employment, nor
are graduates under any obliga-
tion to accept employment with
H&R Block.
One low course fee covers all
textbooks, supplies and tax forms
required for class. Certificates and
7.5 continuing education units will
be awarded upon successful com-
pletion of the course.
Registration forms and a bro-
chure for the income tax course
may be obtained by contacting the
H&R Block office at 211 Wyoming
Ave., Kingston, telephone 288-9367.
Courses are being offered at five
area locations.
We can ask an organization to
change its name to avoid any
confusion about the fact it is a
private entity and is not affiliated
with any governmental agency.
We can ask any organization to
print a disclaimer (in type at least
as large as its name) in which it
states very specifically that it is not
affiliated with any governmental
agency and has no connection with
Social Security.
If the organization does not
respond to these voluntary efforts,
we can enlist the assistance of the
United States Postal Service, which
has the responsibility to act when it
finds that an individual or
organization is attempting to obtain
money through the mails by false
representation.

drives.
Jeff Townsend, Chairman of the
Back Mountain Blood Council, noted
the totals for both drives were
excellent in particular because they
were held during the summer, his-
torically a very low response period
for blood donations.
“The summer is generally a low
intake period,”’ said Townsend.
“Since people are on vacation or
busy with other things, they forget
to come out and donate.”
Nevertheless, Offset Paperback in
Dallas provided 50 percent of the
donors who gave during the July
15th Bloodmobile, which was basi-
cally an industry drive. The remain-
ing donors came from Encon,
Native Textiles, Commonwealth
Telephone Company, and the com-
munity in general. All four compa-
nies represented are located in the
Back Mountain.
“Our one disappointment was that
only 15 first-time donors showed up
on July 1,” he said. “We normally
have bout 25 first-time donors at a
drive. Obviously, we need to encour-
age more non-givers to become
donors.”
The next Back Mountin Bloodmo-
bile is scheduled for September 4,
1986 at the Shavertown United Meth-
odist Church in Shavertown.
