Never before had a whole metropolis and all it's famed Theatre Festival in Paris, to which all the nations of Europe, including those from behind the Iron Curtain, had sent their best productions.

A show had at last come along.. .that was The expression of the American dream of simplicity! The perfect musical. It is clean, funny, pretty and fresh and its tunes and lyrics are among the best in the American Theatre. The Theatre Guild, which produced the play, was saved from bankruptcy by this rousing smash hit and a great new team ..Rodgers and Hammerstein... had found each' other! For the next 17 y erne xt 17 years (until Hammer-stei- ns death in 1960) they were to collaborate on some of the greatest musicals in American stage history such as South The King and I and The Sound of Music. Oklahoma! ran in New York for a total of 2,202 performances the longest run ever scored by a musical comedy up to that time., and has been surpassed only onoe since. Twelve years after its first production, it was still considered the best representative of the American stage to be presented at the International Pacific, One of the biggest influences and sellers when you go shopping is the personality of the clerk who is helping you. How many times have you entered a store, only to be met by a limp fish or mousey sort of guy. This sort of greeting always leads to the feeling that that clerk couldn't care less if you buy there or from the competetor down the street. A warm greeting and acting interested always tend to put the shopper at ease. This thing of is important in every day of your life. It will determine your frineds, and your success at an occupation later on. If you act mousey and remind people of a soggy bowl of cereal, your certain to have mousey friends and a dead beat personality job. Always try to let people know your around, not in a boisterous way, but just by impressing them strongly. Do not be the wallflower who sits quietly and listens as everything floats past Add intelligently to things and always speak up so you can be heard. A vibrant personality can change people in the twinkling of an eye into a man tranformed from a mouse. Man just isnt as smart as a woman.

The study also revealed that the lower the educational level of the soldier, the higher was the incidence of failure due to emotional disorders. Inadequate education and emotional instability tend to reinforce each other. In many cases the researchers found a disturbed childhood was reflected in learning difficulties and children who did poorly in school were more likely to develop emotional disorders. This was also found to be true in the studies conducted by the Nebo School District. The psychologists have pointed out for many years that a childs success in his school experience is to a great extent dependent upon his attitudes and relationships toward school. An extreme e ample of this is the fact that a consultant to the Utah State Industrial School, after working with the students at that institution, reported that he had failed to find one child who liked school. ing IN NEBO DISTRICT We are fortunate that in Nebo School District, children who are unable to learn because of mental retardation, are provided with special classes where they can receive help and spe- cial training. Up until this year; however, a child who was having difficulty in school because of an emotional problem was unable to receive special instruction other than that which the teacher regular classroom could provide. In some extreme cases children have been removed from school altogether and have provided the home visiting who worked withhimon an individual basis. Some of these children, after receiving intensive help from the visiting teacher, have been able to regain some of their and have eventually been able to fit back into the regular school program. RESEARCH MONEY FOR PILOT STUDY This year the Nebo School District was granted research money by the UtahState Department of Public Instruction to organize a pilot study to investigate methods of educating children who have demonstrated average or above intelligence but who are not achieving up to their expected potential. The experimental study was written by J. Dean Jones, Director of Special Education, and submitted to the State Department of Public Instruction for consideration. Boyd Goodrich ofSpring-vill- e was selected as the teacher for this class which is held in the Thurber School. The course of study is much the same as is found in the elementary schools, but methods of teaching are radically different. In addition to the different methods of teaching, there are individual carrels (study booths) in the classroom where the student may place his desk and have the distracting elements in the classroom partially eliminated. At the present time there are seven children enrolled all of whom are making satisfactory progress. Enrollment in the class has been restricted to include only those children of parents who have expressed a willingness to cooperate and who, according to Mr. Jones, have given excellent support to the program Consultants from the Brigham Young University. The State Department of Instruction has expressed great satisfaction with the p r o j e c t. Mr. Jones gives most of the credit for the success to the teacher, Mr. Goodrich, who seems to do the right thing Mr. and Mrs. Vernon Peterson from Hyrum, visited at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Aldon Nelson last week.

This was the conclusion reached in a Utah Foundation analysis of data compiled by the U. S. Department of Commerce. The study shows that only 3.3 of personal income went for the payment of personal taxes in 1940 compared with 12.9 in 1966. Purchases of food and tobacco, on the other hand, declined from 28.1 of total income in 1940 and personal in 1966. Similarly, the 19.8 proportion of personal income expended for clothing, accessories, and jewelry also declined from 11.3 in 1940 to 8.3 in 1966. Foundation analysts emphasized that the Federal definition of personal taxes includes only individual income taxes, inheritance taxes, personal property taxes, and other minor taxes and charges paid directly by the individual. Specifically excluded under the definition are sales taxes, special excises property taxes on real property, corporate profit taxes, along with other indirect taxes and charges. Also excluded are taxes and contributions for social insurance programs, such as Federal social security and unemployment compensation.

Until recently the emphasis has been placed on the and problems if identifying of the protypes categorizing blems that are found in the schools. Children who have been identified have been referred to clinics such as the Utah County Guidance and Mental health Clinic for further diagnosis and treatment. Many of the children have made great progress after treatment and gone on to be well adjusted adults. It has been estimated that between five and 25 percent of the total enrollment of children in the public schools are handicapped by behavior or learning problems caused by emotional disturbances. Many of these disturbed children ultimately become dropouts from the schools and increase the burdens on society because they are unprepared to support themselves and their families. A study made during World War II showed that one out of seven men was judged mentally and emotionally incapable of serv- PAYSON - Mr. and Mrs. Burke Draper and Mrs. Bryan Draper attended a baby shower at Tooele last Saturday.

According to the Foundation report, direct personal taxes last year totaled $75.2 billion. If the indirect or hidden taxes are included, however, the total tax burden in the United States last year was $175 billion, or about 29.9 of personal income. Inclusion of social insurance taxes brings the total contributions to government up to $213 billion, or approximately 36.5 of personal income. The personal tax burden last year was nearly 29 times as great as the amount paid in 1940, the report continues. Personal taxes had increased more than 3 12 times from the 1950 level and had risen nearly 50 since 1960. By comparison, purchases of food and tobacco by Americans in 1966 amounted to $115.4 billion. This was slightly more than five times the 1940 level, about two times the amount expended for this purpose in 1950, and 32 higher than food and tobacco expenditures in 1960. (.VM3MJ CSQD EDGES!
