Stock Demand Tops Supply.
Transactions in Potomac Elec-

very active, with the demand far
ahead of the supply. according to
investment dealers. They could
sell a great deal more stock than
is available. the market closing
every day with a lot Of untitled
orders. The stock remains above 13.
Practically all Washington in
vestors interested in the stock are
buyers, one broker setting the fig
ure as high as SO per cent. AS
nobody here is selling, all the stock
has to come from out-of.town.

Counseling In Our School

During our regular faculty meet
ing Monday afternoon instead of
having our school business dis
cussed in the general way, we
were fortunate enough to receive
some visual training through our
Visual Aids Department and our
school counselors, Mrs. Gravelly
and j. l. King.
The picture shown the faculty

tered around a student who haa
high intelligence but was lacking
in achievement. One teacher was
interested enough to make a
study of the child to try to help
her solve her problem. In making
this study she found that the
child's trouble went back to her
home. Because of their economic

condition the mother was harsh
and non understanding with the
child who was of a very delicate
type of personality because of her
Unborn talent for fine arts etc,
Naturally, there was an inferiority
complex suffered by the girl be-
cause of her lack of clothes, dis
torted home and unkind mother.
And remembering the father, we
think he could be best described
as hayward. The school had the
job of trying to help the girl work
through her particular problem a.
long with the improved attitude
of the parent. One lesson of which
teachers We're reminded is that
we teach individuals instead of
groups; and that sometime a child
may be lead to do regular class
room work through some extra
activity in which he or she
does finds interest. One lesson of
which parents are reminded is
that children are human beings
and they have rights which should
be respected, The height of any
parents ambition should be to pro-
vide peaceful, happy home for
your most precious treasures; one
where they may develope normal

please try to understand your
children and appreciate the finer
things which you, yourselves have
instilled in their emotions.
For Mere Parents Like You
Dunbar is fortunate in that most
Of our parents are very loyal to
our school and their children;
however We know there must be
someone who has the school on
his or her heart so much so that
their every breath is school.
Dunbar has tried in its small
way to show Mrs. Napier just
how much we appreciate all that
she has done for us but 1t Is
practically impossible because she
is always adding something else 10
the list of things she has already
done.
One of the incest things l think
she ever did was this: One Sat-
urday the Basket ball team was
to make an out of town trip and at
the last minute the faculty spon-
sor could not 60. Mrs. Napier said,
well, someone has to go, I guess
it will be me-" We felt that this
was the most unselfish, loyal at
titude we had seen toward Dunbar
in many years. if ever. She has
also worked for SO many years in
special capacities in our PTA that
this organization wanted to make
her its president last year; but
do you think she would accept it?
The answer is no! She felt that she
could better serve the organization
as Advisor to the entire group.
She knew she understood the pro-
blems of the parents therefore she
felt that she could serve as an
advisor to both. She is doing an
job. Some of the other
jobs she has done for our school
are: To serve as chairman of the
Ways and Means Committee of the
P. T. A, steered the faculty lunch
con at the end of the year, PTA
membership booster. PTA Coun-
Gil president; and gave unlimited
time and support to the welfare

plan the first of this series will be
devoted to the workings of this
period, THE Improving of Instruc-
ton"
In Dunbar Junior high school
We have a specialist in remedial
reading on the staff 1t is also the
practice to teach reading ON all
grade levels and in all classes,
Consequently, every teacher is a
reading teacher, In order to make
1t possible for each teacher to
know more about remedial work
and corrective reading in-serviee
study was initiated in which every
teacher in Dunbar trained for this
necessary and special work.
1t is generally believed that scores
on a mental ability test improve if a
student improves his reading skills.
If the test consists mainly of nu-
merical, spatial, or non-language
material one cannot expect signi-
ficant Improvement on scores on
the test as a result of increased
reading skill. But if the test is
largely verbal and many of the
tests are, improved reading ability
is likely to raise to score.
For students in Dunbar Junior
high school whose reading is so
poorly developed that regular
teachers cannot cope with the pro-
blem in regular classes, separate
classes offer somewhat a solution
for the problem of these rerious-
ly handicapped pupils. In special
remedial classes the needs of the
can be considered.
These special remedial classes are
provided for those whose reading
skills are seriously undeveloped.
