"Many Social Security beneficiaries continue to understand the; earnings limit and find themselves in 'hot water' the end of each calendar year." This statement received Donald M. Sckenrode, officer in charge of the Lebanon Social Security office, today. 'The earnings limitation (or Retirement Test) is not easy to understand in ijie first place," Eckenrode added, "and whenever people have questions concerning earnings after their retirement from their regular obs, they should inquire at our ocal office." The limitation IB 1968 is $1,680. If a person earns this amount or less he will receive all the benefits due him this year. The test Involves all earnings from a 1 through December 31, 1968.

When a person earns more Eiffel Tower Is France's Top Tourist Lure WASHINGTON-Thirty death- defying painters will soon.give Paris' Eiffel Tower, a "new look." A fresh coat of paint Is applied about every seven years. The last went on in 1961. It takes almost two years to apply 40. tons of paint to the structure. Work is suspended during the heavy tourist season lest a bucket splatter visitors.

Although no decision has been made on color, the hue recently, has been "cognac brown," specially blended to catch the sun's rays. A Royal Visitor Since its first visitor, King Edward VII, then Prince of Wales, signed the guest book in 1889, the tower" has become France's number one tourist attraction. The monument draws two million visitors a year. Though now a cherished French landmark, the Eiffel Tower was not always loved, National Geographic Society As the iron skeleton rose above the Paris skyline to highlight the Exposition of 1889, prominent Pirisitni petitioned against the, "monstrous and useless" thing. Writer Guy de Maupassant left Paris and urged the populace to "smash this assemblage of iron ladders." More mundane critics attacked the steeple as a vantage for spies, a magnet for lightning, and a threat to mi' grating birds.

Despite the protests, 300 steeplejacks drove 2,500,000 rivets and finished the "temporary" framework in two years. The folly of its designer, Gustave Eiffel, swiftly proved to be a gold mine in the sky. Financed by subscription, the tower cost about $1,560,000. It paid for itself in less than two years, and has never beeinn the red since. The City of Paris owns it, and a private corporation runs the tower as a concession.

M. Eiffel built himself aa apartment above the tower's top public platform -where he studied aerodynamics and entertained such celebrities as Thomas A. Edison and Sarah Bernhardt. He lived to be 91, and credited his long life to the fresh, high air fre breathed. Carrying on the tradition, his septuagenarian, Legrain Eiffel, still keeps a tiny apartment there.

Mecca For Daredevils The tower has attracted a host of daredevils. Planes have threaded the arches, and in 1924 the self-proclaimed Mayor of Montmartre jounced down the 356 steps from the first landing on a bicycle. Kilkee, a cow, made bovine history earlier this year when she rode to the top in the passenger elevator to promote an agricultural exhibition. The structure is more than a monument and mecca for; daredevils. It houses a meteorological station, television and radio transmission facilities, and aircraft beacons.

The first voice radio signals to cross the Atlantic Ocean were sent from the Eiffel Tower to Arlington, Virginia. In World War its radio station helped ferret out spies, including the notorious Mata Hari. CLOSE TO HOME FORT LAUDERDALE, Fla.

So, if a person earns $2,880 in 1968 and works regularly in each month of the year, he would have $600 withheld from his benefits in 1968. "If the worker earns more than $2,880 in 1968, $1 in benefits is withheld for each $1 above the $2,880 figure. For an example, let's say a retired worker will earn $3,000 in 1968 at a parttime job he accepted. If he works steadily in each month of 1968, he will have $720 withheld from his benefits; $600 for the first $1,200 over the $1,680 and an additional $121 for earnings between $2,880 and $3,000. "In addition to this annual earnings test, there is also monthly earnings test, Eckenrode added, "and this is very likely where the confusion begins with the average retired worker." Under the Social Security law, a person is considered retired if he or she does not earn over $140 in any one month, and being retired he is eligible to receive his benefit for any particular month regardless of how much he may earn in the entire year.

"A good illustration of this monthly test is the case of a school teacher (who earns no money in the vacation months of July and August) but who earns about $6,000 for the year. Such a teacher, who is at least age 62 may receive Social Security checks for July and August. "The test is slightly dif- Dillf Km, Lthtaqe, Wdattdty, July 3,1981 Ftp Playground Association Continues Movie Night CLEONA, July The Cleona Playground Association held its monthly meeting Monday evening at the playground with 10 members present.

The movie nights will continue every Wednesday night, weather ferent for self-employed persons, insofar as the monthly test is concerned. But anyone desiring information about the earnings limit should contact us now and avoid having checks withheld in early 1969 because he failed to look into the matter," Eckenrode concluded.
