Do any of these an- . - . - Grownups make mistakes but they wont admit them. They always pretend that they werent mistakes at all or that somebody else made them. 6. Grownups interrupt childien all the time and think nothing of it. If a child interrupts a grownup, he gets a scolding 5. -- Grownups never understand how much children want a certain thing a certain color or shape or size. If its something they dont admire even if the children have spent their own money for it they always say, I cant imagine what you want with that old thing! Sometimes grownups punish children unfairly. It isnt right if youve done just some little thing wrong and grownups take away something that means an awful lot to you. Other times you .an do something really bad and theyre going to punish you, but they dont. You never know, and you ought to know. 9. Grownups talk about money too much, and bills, and things like that, so that it scares you. They say money isnt very important, but the way they talk about it, it sounds like the most important thing in the world. 10. Grownups gossip a lot but if children do the very same thing and say the same words about the same people theyre being disrespectful. 11. Grownups pry into children's secrets. They always think its going to be something bad. They never think it might be a nice surprise. 12. Grownups are always talking about what they did and what they knew when they were 10 years old but they neer try to think what its like to be 10 years old right now. 8. A FRIEND of mine once made a comment that Ive never forgotten: I find that your luck is how you treat people. A MOTHER I know had spent the whole summer in the company of her children, thinking only of (heir needs. On her return in the fall she went for the first time in months to an adult dinner party. To her horror she discovered that, to start conversation with the distinguished man next to her, she said automatically: 'T bet I can finish my soup sooner than you can."

Noting that postwar growth of total money income in constant dollars is about three percent annually, Dr. Brown said that if this rate of growth continues, then real income can be expected to increase by more than 50 percent over the next 10 years and more than double before 1990." He reported that family income in 1968 amounted to $500 billion, and said the figure should reach more than $1 trillion in 1968 dollars by the middle of the 1980s. This would mean that the average family income of $8,600 in 1968 could GRANITE DISTRICT SCHOOLS TO CLOSE FOR GOOD FRIDAY School will not be held on April 9, so students may observe Good Friday, according to the school calendar.

Playing Golf? Watch Hazards Crazy antics on golf courses are taking an increasing accident toll. Some of them have happened on the Copper Club links. Players run their motorized carts into trees, bombard one another with golf balls, clobber their fellows with clubs, and invite electrocution, by playing during thunderstorms. Golf is essentially not a dangerous sport. Its only the players who make it hazardous. Most golfing injuries (with due apologies to Vice President Spiro T. Agnew) are inflicted by the golf ball that drops from out of nowhere. Such injuries are often slight, for the ball has traveled far enough to lose its speed and impact. But at close range a ball can deliver a fatal knockout blow. Generally, these accidents are caused by a lack of common sense and courtesy. A player gets impatient and tees off before those ahead have played their second shots or are safely out of range about 200 yards for amateurs. Theres good safety logic behind the courtesy rule that the player farthest from the green WHAT A MESS Salt Lake County Health Department and the Magna Town Council, directed by John E.

Grownups dont do the things theyre always telling the children to do like pick up the'r things, or be neat, or always tell the truth. 3. Grownups wont let their children dress the way they want to but they never ask a child a opinion about how they should dress.

Expansion Program A major expansion program, costing in excess of $250,000, will be completed for the 1971 season at Lagoon, it was announced Friday by Robert E. Freed, general manager. The new features continue the policy of developing Lagoon into a total recreational center.

Riders Plan Race Meets always shoots first other players should stay behind the hitter and not get in front of him until his ball is in the air. Slices and hooks plague even the pros. To protect yourself and others, you should give warning if you see someone in the path of your wrild shot, and keep on the alert for flying balls from other fairways. A surprising number of golfers are clobbered by golf clubs. Make sure that bystanders are not within the arc of your swing, and to protect yourself dont walk behind a person holding a Jr club. Power carts save time, effort and heart strain. But careless operation can cause them to end up against a tree. If turned sharply or driven on steep inclines or in rough areas, they are prone to tip. At the first signs of rain, golfers should take shelter. Lightning strikes most often during the muggy lull preceding rain. Standing in the open, the golfer is often the highest object in the area making him a perfect target for lightning. The nearest lone tree, the classic Continued on Back Page 1 READY, GO!
