MELLOR A POTPOURRI OF n nnill, rUNU The average size of elementary classes In Beaver School District this year is 29.00 students, the Utah Education Association announced this week. Executive Acting UEA Director Don Ulmer said Ms is particulorganization arly concerned about large X B - think of all the things you do have to be Row many of you save thinps? Anything! Some people savt everything. Soma peopln sava nothing. Overall, I think my family falls into tha catagory of those who save. My father saves, my mother saves, my hua-basaves. Evan my doi-ght- ar savas. I, on tha othar hand, tend to sava vary little. At times it would hava bean to my great advantage had I saved such things as sales receipts, washing la bels on clothes, cancelled checks, etc. I must admit, though, that I do sava a lot mora since I got married, especially papers that might be needed for income tax purposes. I also have a. tendency to save things with mora sentimental value than practical worth. For example, I now have at least three big boxes of cards (birthday, Easter, Christmas) received by my family ov- -r tha past nine years. I also have at least three big storage boxes filled with baseveral by clothes ; and boxes of drawings made and given to ma by my little daughter. And, sine she enjoys making them and I enjoy receiving them, my collection Is sure to continue growing. I also collect quotes, cartoons, sayings, poems, etc. I usually read these when I'm not feeling up to par. And since I haven fait up to par since New Year's Day, I've gone through quite a few of them. One consolation to being sick this last week, is that I haven't been alone in my misery. It seems like a lot of people In town, both young and old, have been, feeling under the wea' ' ther lately. EjVhlle going through my 'wlitctlon I came across the following newspaper clipping. Perhaps after reading it you'll feel like I did - that ll, I feel pretty good. .'130 you wish you looked -taller, thinner, stronger, prettier An anonymous poet t " - all-in-a- can be. My husband and children are so hard to please, I have arthritis In both my knees. My pulse is weak and my blood Is thin, But, I'm awfully well for the shape I'm In. I think my liver is out of whack, And I have a terrible pain in my back. My hearing is poor and my eyes are dim, Most everything seems to be out of trim. The way I stagger is sure a crime, But, all things considered, I'm feeling fine. Arch supports for both my feet, Or I wouldn't be able to walk down the street. My fingers are ugly, stiff in the joints, My nails are impossible to keep in points. Complexion Is bad, due to dry sUn, But, I'm awfully weU for the shape I'm in. My dentures cut, I'm restless at night. And in the morning I'm a frightful sight. Memory's falling, head's in a spin, I'm practically well for the shape I'm in. Now the moral is, as the tale we unfold, That for you and for me who are growing old. It's better to say "I'm Una!" with a grin, Than to dwell all the time on the shape we are ln.N So, next, time you get to feeling low, and under the weather, just say to yourself as loud as you can, "lm Just final for the shape I'm in." Winter quarter enrollment at Southern Utah State College will top last year's figures, the highest winter quarter enrollment ever posted at the college.
