STUDENTS CAN IMPROVE
THEIR STUDY HABITS

Students in the Junior High
School are being given unit on
"How to Study " according to Mr..
Leo Anderson, Principal. This
unit, which will be taught by the
English teachers, was planned by
Mrs. Jimpsie Miller, Counselor,
who believes that the reason
many students do not do as well
as they should in school is be-
cause they do not know how to
study.
Students can develop better
study habits. Parents can help
by encouraging their children to
jot down each days class assign
ment in a small notebook. (when
in doubt about what he is to do,
a student should ask his teacher).
By setting aside a certain time
each day for home study, either
after school or after supper. AS
quiet a place as possible should be
selected. Radio or television will
he enjoyed more when the home
work is done)
Help your boy or girl to form q
habit of having al materials al
hand before beginning, so he car
get to work Immediately.
The more difficult subject:
should be studied fArst - the
easier ones Last. Alternate between
written and reading assignments
Show a genuine interest in your
boys or girls school progress!

He didn't know what he would
do in Denver but he would have
time to think about that after he
arrived there. Seventy-two dollars
was in his pocket. That was real

How can a farm afford
the special services it needs?

Farming /. like any other industry -.
needs the eficiencies and economies of
specialized departments.
The farm business needs sales de-
partment and purchasing department
s. someone to counsel on Insurance.
and credit and many more depart
ments to work out important problems.
If 1t weren't for cooperatives, most
farmers couldn't afford these special
lied services. Purchasing cooperatives
supply materials and products of high
est quality at lowest possible cost. Mar
keting cooperatives help improve the
quality of produce and sell it at the
most favorable prices. Mutual iilsur-
ance companies provide protection at
lowest cost. Credit associations lend
money for farm operations.
These cooperatives make farming
more business-like and moro nble.
