an inter-sorority organization 0 Your Social Security John Locas. Field Representative For Richland Parish Last week we were discussing the supplemental medical insurance plan. This is the pUa which pays part of your doctor bills after you hve incurred $50 in a. year. One of the-thtega on which I have noted some confaskm.

is the deductible. The only thing which counts toward would be payable if the deductible were saHnfied. Obviously, the ium of S3 a month or S3 a quarter would not count toward the deductible. Neither would any non-covered hospital expenses, nor would any expenses for prescription medicines. These things, such as prescription drugs, are not covered under either part of the medicare plan.

The only drugs covered are those which must be administered by the doctor in his office. These would ordinarily be billed by the doctor on his bin. The deductible must be bena fide doctor bills which would be paid If the deductible were already satisfied. One of the fine points of this program you seldom require a doc tor's services. If you spend S60 dur ing a year, you can claim reimbursement of $8 which is S3 per cent of the $10 which your blU exceeds $50; however, any put of the deductible which was paid la October, November or December, can be carried over for use in the Xc Jewing year.

For example: If your $69 had all been incurred in October. November, and December, then you would have no deductible the next year. Tou could be reimbursed at the beginning of the year at 8ft per cent of your medical expenses. Had you insurred $20 in each month of September, October, and November. only $30 would be creditable toward the deductible in the last quarter.

therefore $33 would be carried over to the new ysar. After only $20 ex penses in the new year, your deductible is satisfied. This is one reason I encourage people making their first application to bring; all their bills begin ning July 196S. We may file for reimbursement in 1966 or may carry over some of the deductible into this year. 0 Ideas For Christmas Gifts And Decorations I Are yon interested in an adult class in home economics?

Strong, Massey Keener McCon-nell, and Dallas Thomason, because the members felt that since they were handling public funds voted into being from their district by the property owning electoral voters from their ward, they, the members wanted it to be made crystal clear that they had represented their people in spending their monies, just as wisely as" they knew how. We are going to use the same sentence structure in explaining the revenues and disbursements the Rayville area in School District No. 3, Ward 2, as we used previously in presenting the Holly Ridge area from the same school district. The revenues are as follows: firstly, we will commence by stating that the first monies received were which resulted from the October 3, 1963 resolution afforded by the Richland Parish School Board from its General Fund; secondly, the next amount of money received came from the results on the April 7, 1964, election in which our property owning electoral voters favored in the amount of $610,500.00 through the sale of bonds; thirdly, the interest collected from investments on surplus monies amounted to and fourthly, the Ki-wanis Club funded the Richland Parish School Board School District No. 3, Ward 2, $1,939.47 as a partial payment toward the installation of an air-conditioner in the dining area of the Rayville Elementary School for the use of the facility.

The four sources of revenue amounted to $656,168.07. The disbursements for the Ray ville area of School District No. 3, Ward 2, are as follows: Cost of election on April 7, 1964, cost of gravel and sand for Eula D. Britton School, 302.64; Eula D. Britton School, football field, $5,600.00, Don Baxter and Son for building, $135,612.00, archi tect for fees, $8,224.86 and equip ment, $6,078.67, suhrtotalingrr Rayville High School cafeteria and music building: Contractors for building $193,469.51, architect for fees, $11,638.17 and equipment $9,467.93, sub totaling Rayville Elementary School: Miller's Air Conditioning, $6,472 and Venetian blinds, $942.81, sub-totaling, Rayville Elementary and High Schools, remodel ing and alterations: Maxwell Contractors for building, $133,800.09, architect for fees $8,03857 and equiment $5,458.82, sub totaling, $147,297.18.

The disbursements total $533,517.27, leaving a balance as of September 1967, of $122,650.80, with the following outstanding, namely: contractor on the Eula D. Britton School, $1,469.00 and contractor on the Rayville High School cafeteria and music building, $600.00, totaling $2,069.00. As" we mentioned in the format, this article concludes the present series on the statement of condition on School District No. 3, Ward 2, and we trust that we have fulfilled the request in our own way of course, for the three school board members representing School District No. 3, Ward 2, in present- ing this statement of condition to their people this district.

We feel that all folk in School District No. 3, Ward 2, would like to join us in commending these faithful school board members their constructing and in their spending wisely throughout those operations under their authority, and certainly, we want to say to them that they have done well in their past and current educational endeavors.
