Show if udeni s collect supplies for Ethiopian orphans Students at Mapleton Elementary Elemen-tary School were able to practice their knowledge of "showing concern for others" by sending critical items to Ethiopia. Outcome Out-come Based Education program ; in operation at the school suggests sug-gests that students select a major outcome based educational objective objec-tive for the year. The students selected the building of a greater understanding of demonstrating concern for others as their major goal. Teachers and students selected activities that build opportunities for sharing talents, time and means on a school, community and global level. As a global project, the students decided to collect gifts and supplies to send to orphanages in Addis Ababa, the capitol city of Ethiopia. Mrs. Marilyn Robertson, a first grade teacher at the school has a daughter daugh-ter Gloria DeWitt, the wife of a U.S. diplomat presently serving in the country. Mrs. DeWitt will personally distribute the supplies when they arrive in the country to the city's 16 orphanages. Ethiopia, according to reports released by the World Bank, is the poorest country in the world. The Mapleton students were told that many of the children in the orphanages never have an opportunity oppor-tunity to attend school, and many will die very young because of the high rate of AIDS in the country. The expense of shipping the donated items will be paid, in part, by a grant from the district, and in part by donations from parents and townspeople. The materials are being sent through the State Department diplomatic channels to Mrs. DeWitt. The children were able to collect 80 boxes of clothing, toys, diapers, formula and other items to ease human suffering. Principal Ralph Poulsen was impressed with the excitement level of the students at being able to share with children in Africa, he observed that several children stopped before hurrying to their busses to take one last look and to pat the boxes. The level of appreciation for their own opportunities oppor-tunities to learn and their standard of living was increased through the learning experience. Notes on family health care The COmmOn Cold may relieved by drinking hot by Michael H. Jensen Craig is a 37-year-old fathe who came home from the office with a cold, soon, everyone in the family had stuffy, runny noses, decreased energy and sneezing. Presently, there is no immunization immuni-zation or antibiotic that can stop a cold. Because there are over 100 strains of cold viruses it is difficult diffi-cult to develop a vaccine. Until a cure for the cold is found, home remedies and non-prescription medications are the main treatment. treat-ment. How to Prevent a Cold Cold and flu bugs are transmitted trans-mitted mostly by hand contact, and to a lesser degree through the air, from coughing or sneezing. Touching objects such a door knobs, telephone receivers, cups, counter tops and through a friendly friend-ly handshake, cold virus can be transmitted to your nasal passages. passag-es. For example, you could grab a door knob touched by a persor with a cold, then rub your eyes, nose, or mouth and become infected. in-fected. Keep the following in mind to avoid a cold: 1. Don't touch your eyes, nose or mouth unless you have washed your hands. 2 Wash door knobs, light switches and counter tops and use separate glasses, dishes, eating utensils and towels when someone in the house has a cold. 3. Use disposable tissues, and wash hands frequently to avoid giving your cold to someone else. Some self care tips for the cold sufferer are: get plenty of rest and drink fluids.

New Year's Resolutions aren't what they used to be. In fact, a recent Gallup survey showed that 54 percent of American adults will skip making pledges for 1992. The main reason seems to be that 22 percent of the respondents respon-dents said their past New year's pledges generally lasted less than a week. And sixty percent of new year's resolvers generally don't make it past the first six months, says a University of Scranton (Pennsylvania) psychiatrist. Of those, 31 percent say they lack the willpower to pull if off; 20 percent lost interest; 7 percent set unrealistic goals and three percent lack commitment. In 1849, Elizabeth Blackwell was the first American woman to become a doctor. liquids like chicken soup, use of humidifiers and nasal sprays. Mild fever and aches can be relieved with Tylenol or Ibupro-fen. Ibupro-fen. If a cold lasts more than a week, and symptoms are getting worse, you may have a secondary bacterial infection that can be treated with antibiotics from your doctor. Michael H. Jensen, MD, Paul S.

That's the recommendation of Dr. John P. Cooke, a vascular internist at Stanford University Medical Center's new Program in Vascular Disease. "Experts have known for a long time that lowering cholesterol cholester-ol can help prevent atherosclerosis, atherosclero-sis, but there is now increasing evidence that the lower your cholesterol cho-lesterol goes, the slower the disease dis-ease progresses," explains Cooke, an assistant professor of medicine.

Current American Heart Association Asso-ciation guidelines for healthy adults call for total cholesterol value of 200 mgdl or less, including includ-ing an LDS (bad) cholesterol level of 160 mgdl or less. "But people who already have atherosclerosis would benefit from lowering their LDS levels even further. We recommend that they drop their LDL level to about 100 to 130 mgdl to achieve maximum benefits. The first step toward lowering cholesterol is a low fat, low cholesterol diet," Cooke notes. "If diet alone doesn't bring the levels down to acceptable levels; then a variety of medications which can be tailored individually for patients are available," Cooke says.
