so we watched the Senate.

Today we are in complete con-

in and ready for action. One res
olution was sent to the Senate and
two House bills were read We
then recessed until It was time for
us to hear the boy Governor give
his address. After this We return

to a caucus on the bills we had

Bill giving rights to join or re-

was passed while the one requir-

not. Numerous resolutions were

Mrs. Mildred King, first of four
speakers at the regular semi
monthly meeting of the Faculty
Club here on March 10, declared
that every child will learn to read
if sufficiently interested by those
charged with the very grave re-
sponsibiltiy of teaching reading.
Emphasizing the emotional prob
lens which have their roots in fail
ure to achieve reading skill, Mrs.
king said that only the utmost
skill and persistence on the part of
the remedial teacher can hope to
bring retarded children to a rea-
sonable level of attainment. Elm
nation of physical handicaps, said
Mrs. King, is prerequisite to sue
cess in remedying lack of basic
reading skills. Every teacher must
cooperate at every level and in all
subjects if reading is to be well
taught.
IN outlining the qualifications of
a god remedial reading teacher,
Miss Caroline Stats made clear
that such teachers should have the

Apple Tree Versus

If you ever visit Jeb Crowell's
farm, he'll take you right out on
that back porch of his and show
you his apple tree.
"There," says Jeb, "is natures
noblest creation-ffty years, and
bearin' still the finest cider apples
in the county!"
But last fall, when group of
us was there, Lud Denny points
across the river to his grain fields
and says: there's an even finer
sight! Acres and acres of golden
grain you can make dozens of
appetizing things with-including
wholesome, sparkling beer"

highest standards Of attainment in
all fields of study that in general
bear on the instruction of children,
with particular reference to the
psychological and physiological as
poets of retardation.
Miss Alberta Cornelius contin-
ued the discussion of guidance at
the high school level by stressing
the individual needs of students in
vocational, social and recreational
fields. The school has responsible
ity not only in aiding the student
to make vocational decisions but
also In aiding him to get a posi-
ton in his chosen vocation and to
improve himself on the job. Such
a broad guidance program will call
for the full cooperation of every
interested agency, public and pri-
vate.
Miss Muriel Martin concluded
the discussion by pointing out that
no adequate program OF guidance
can be initiated and successfully
carried out unless we solve the
critical problems Of how to get
full, unbiased information concern
| ing all the potentialities Of each
student, his true character, his
physiological attributes, and all
environmental factors which con-
tribute to success or failure. Miss
Martin pointed out that a stu
dents declarations of interest In
a given vocation is not sufficient
indication of ability in that field
and that it is the purpose of CO.
cational guidance to discover hm-
itations as well as abilities.
Smyrna times., 1947-03-27

Both of them got so eloquent on
the subject, that the rest of us
worked up quite thirst; so Jeb
goes to the icebox for beer and
cider. And when the refreshments
come, Lud chooses cider, and Jeb
takes the beer!
From where ] sit, that's the
answer to most disputes. You can
talk all you want, but when it
comes to tastes and preferences,
there's just no argument.
