Learning
How tOUse
Library
BY Angelo Potri

There is so much material
available in any one field of
knowledge that few of us could
retain more than a fraction of
this information in our memory.
The technique of where to look
for the facts, extract what is
needed, and then use the infor-
nation properly, must be taught
and learned.
This teaching and learning
should begin in the elementary
grades, when pupils are first
learning to read and write.
Outlines, the student compos-
ing a sentence will ask the spell
ing of a word. This is the time
for teacher to help the student
help himself. The wise teacher
will say, That word is in your
reader. When you find it, list it
in your own dictionary" AS the
young pupil lists the words that
stump him, he will find his vo-
cabulary increasing; composition
becomes easier. He is learning
the value of a reference book.
Make looking for the facts a
habit; set early, it will prove val
liable for a lifetime.
AS the pupil advances, refer
ence books become a must in his
studies. He should have avail
able to him a good selection of
books. In the first and second
grades, picture dictionaries at
tract the youngSter who abSorbS
knowledge by association. Soon
he advances to the simplified
dictionaries and children'S en-
cyclopedias. Picture maps that
show products, people at work,
animals, birds, flora, ETC., in our
country and in far-of places will
command attention. Before long
his interest will swing to stand
ard works like the Encyclopaedia
Britannica, the unabridged die
tionary and classic tones on
more mature subjects. A student
library should be COMPLICATION
the elementary grades to the
senior grades. Full shelves will
attract the student and add to
his store of knowledge.
Constant use of the alphabet
and insistence on look it up.
Make a note of it," in the early
grades, is a basic teaching tech
nique. 1t serves as the ground
work for the students future
studies and insureS the proper
use of reference books. The STU
dent will gain by a mind
strengthened with knowledge and
intelligence; his place in the
community will be assured.
These basic techniques of teach
ing are too often neglected in
the elementary grades. Super
viSorS should take note.

Sandals
Do Spell

By EIeni

Women are rediScovering
something that ancient men and
women knew very well; that
sandals can be the most COM
Portable protection for the feet
ever devised.
The fiat leather -soled foot COW
ering with the strap sometimes
passing through the first and
second toe dates back to an
tiquity. Ancient Greeks. Egyp-
tians and Romans of both sexes
wore them. Judging from the
sculpture left, the feet appar-
emily never had it so good. Con-
Striction was not present and the
beauty of the 10 toes was left
intact.
There are any number of in
.teresting historical paragraphs
about sandals.
At one time sandals showed
the wealth and position of the
wearer Color was another dis
tinguishing factor. The Romans
were the first to use color in
their footwear. For example, the
Roman calceus, an elaborate
sandal distinguished the senator
from the patriclan. The sena-
tors was of black leather while
the patricians wore red. It was
in the Middle Ages that a transit
ton was made from the sandal
to the more modern type of shoe,
although heels on shoes date
back to the time of the Persians
when they used them to keep
the foot raised from the burning
sands of the desert.
Our two pictured leisure time
sandals, one spotlighted by a
mink whimsy touch and the other
by a sparkling jeweled disque
between the first and second toe,
are available from a fine F street
department store. They are
designed by Bernardo.

Economists Predict
Good Year Ahead,
But See 3 Dangers
By Froncis P. Douglas

Economists, both in Govern
ment and outside, generally sup
port the prediction that 1853
business will be good, but they
see three clouds-as yet not
large-on the horizon.
These are:
L.. Fear that the stockmarket
boom might get out of hand.
Prices have been going up since
the election. The movement is
called the Eisenhower boom" or
the confidence boom"
2. The decline in prices OF
farm products.
3. The situation abroad. Eco
nomically. if there was no recess
sion in Europe last year, at least.
there was no gain. Politically. the
situation is more upset than it
has been.
A. p. Index Cited.
The Eisenhower boom has
brought stock prices to the high
est levels in % years. Just before
the election the Associated Press
index for 80 industrials stood at
1888: for Is rails. 1913; for Is
utilities. 53.1, and for the so
stocks combined, 1868.
Last Monday the figures were:
30 industrialist, 1918; Is rails.
93.6: Is utilities, IS: so stocks.
116. Since then prices have de-
clined. Brokers called it a tech
nical correction.
Market observers generally be-
lieve stock prices are not too
high in relation to earnings and
assets. But with 1929 in their
memories. some economists fear
a boom psychology might de-
velop, followed by a slump.
Farm Prices Down.
Farm prices slumped IL per
cent last year S per cent in the
last two months Of the year. Ir
the past exports have taken the
surplus and maintained the
prices of many American agri-
cultural products. Cotton Is 9
prime example. But exports
have been of and are faced
with a continued decline this
year. Foreign production has
been good and foreigners have
been short of dollars for Ameri-
can products.
Farm support programs are
expected to provide brakes on
continued price declines. But
farmers may have less income,
which means they will buy less.
There is less unanimity OF
opinion regarding the economic
situation abroad and its effect
here. Even the most optimistic
concede certain weaknesses" ir
Western Europe in 1852, but they
minimize its effect in this coun-
try. The less optimistic regard
it as more important to us.
The political situation, In
France and the Middle East, is
disturbing to both.
