It's tough to get kids enthusiastic about writing. The word is getting around, though, that many young people become excited about keeping journals. These are daily personal records of experiences and reflections. Doris O'Hara, an Oregon high school English teacher, gives some classes 10 to 15 minutes of each period to write in journals. She never reads these personal the students inwritings-unle- ss vite her to do so. One student in the class learned some valuable lessons about himself. He said he reads his journal six or seven times, and that it opened his eyes to some problems that he found recurring in his life. The journal showed him as he really how he could change. The teacher said that as the school year progresses, more and more students find themselves writing in the journals outside of class time. These young people write about their little triumphs and tragedies, what they hope for in the future, their feelings about some news event or person, descriptions of athletic events and personal adventures. from They are discouraged merely recording mundane information such as when they got out of bed that day or what they ate breakfast-unle- ss for there's something significant about an otherwise dull entry. As students become disciplined to the regular writing that a t journal demands, they may become more enthusiastic. "Writing about something new is like telling a friend about it," said one student. When a young person develops that kind of feeling about writing, chances are writing will become a habit. Parents can encourage this kind of writing by providing a journal, which may not be anything more than an inexpesive : notebook. Other needs the young writer will have are the right to privacy and 15 minutes a night when the TV and stereo are silent.

The only team that stood in the Parents Play Pivotal Role Maintaining vjtaljtnd healthy relationship between parent and child may be the best insurance against future drug abuse and alcoholism among teenagers. Dr. Eleanore Luckey, chairman S S u- - It of the Department of Family and Consumer Studies at the University of Utah, said research studies show that parental attitudes and actions have the greatest impact on a teenager's decision to use illicit drugs, marijuana, or alcohol. Speaking at a conference at the University of North Carolina in Charlotte, Luckey said parental actions speak louder than words, and parents who discourage their children from drinking or drug use while using the drugs themselves are defeating their purpose by their actions. She added that studies demonstrate drug use seems to run in families. Parents who use liquor or psychoactive drugs are more likely to have - children who experiment with the drugs. The North Carolina conference, "Children in an Adult World," explored the foundations upon which healthy children are raised. About 500 teachers, social workers, doctors, ministers and other professionals participated.

The hotline offers free help and advice to high school principals faced with perplexing problems. So far, the service has only been the Utah publicized through Association of Secondary School Principals which is cooperating in the program. "When more school administrators become aware of the service, we expect usage to increase significantly," McCleary adds.

"The general public is invited and registrations will be accepted at the door beginning at 8 a.m. in 394 Wilkinson Center," said Glen McClure, conference coordinator. The purpose of the two-daconference is to explore the ever-prese- phenomenon ! of wherever children are, there will be learning. "Children are always someplace," said Dr. Cahoon. "They may be home in the kitchen, at school in the classroom, riding a bus, at the grocery store or just outside playing in a mud puddle. Wherever they are, there is learning taking place. Young children learn much from their everyday experiences. Whatever happens to them has an influence on their thinking and their behavior." jPt.Milk FRIDAY, March 30 Roll wCranberry Sauce Turkey Whipped Potatoes and Gravy Buttered Carrots or Peas Cinnamon Rolls Vi Pt.

It they interact with people who are happy and energetic, they will probably develop similar a' titudes. Likewise, children exposed to cheating or dishonesty will probably reflect such characteristics in their own behavior. And if they interact with people who are discouraged or lazy, they will begin to behave in a similar manner. "Whether it be beneficial or detrimental, children learn from their experiences and the people around them," Dr. Cahoon said. Other presentations will be made by J. Joel Moss, Betty D.
