We realize that our nation isnt perfect, but we should also realize that it is better than any other we know of and is trying to do the best possible for its citizens in this time of unrest and violence. How can we show our patriotism? We can to the best of our ability obey the laws of the land. This would include such things as treason, but it would also include such ordinary things as obeying traffic We would fly the flag. We laws too. would try to stamp out lawlessness and evil by not condoning it at any time or place. We can show patriotism by learning and singing patriotic songs. We should be interested in the leaders, local and national, who are elected to govern us. This includes voting, trying to elect good, honest people, then trying to uphold them 'and" help them while in office. We are showing our patriotism - if we try to keep our part of the nation neat, clean We can exercise our and beautiful. patriotism by being fair and unprejudiced. We should not judge all people of a race, a religion, or an area by the unwise actions of a few in that particular group. We should take time to teach our children of the great statesmen we have had in this Room 1. This eight hour course, taught in four two-hosessions, is a real accident prevention program making good drivers better drivers," Johnson said. Before and after studies continue to reveal that accident involvement declines when individuals have successfully completed the course." While advanced registration is desired, individuals unable to do so prior to the course, may register before the start of the first session on July 7th by calling Extension 69. There is a five dollar ($5.00) registration fee to cover the cost of materials and other expenses involved in offering this course. Students report that this is the best investment that they have made, and have indicated repeatedly the course should be made mandatory for all drivers, Johnson said. ur nation. Many people do not feel this patriotism. We who do have a responsibility by our words, our actions, and our deeds to help kindle or rekindle this love of country and what it stands for in others. Think what a different city, state, and nation we could have if every one felt and demonstrated through their living, . that they do love, honor and respect the United States. Let it begin with us, here, now. 373-55- A sad situation but unfortunately real A sixteen year old boy after being put in a Utah county drunk tank was found dead the next morning - hung by his bed sheets. After drinking six teenage boys tried to outrace a train in a station wagon, two boys died in the crash. Teenage drinking has risen to such a level that ninety (90) percent of the teenagers in Utah have drunk some form of alcohol, five (5) percent have been under the influence of intoxicating beverages, and the law enforcement agencies seem to be too easy on those who are apprehended. Al-- 10 Col-omb- us discovered America, etc. etc. etc. but no one had taught me some of the important aspects of marriage.

It is quite likely that many of our young people and many of our parents do not realize that a boy taking game or fishing illegaUy may lose a gun or fishing equipment that he is found to be using illegally. Sometimes this might even cause hardship as where a boy was recently found guilty of taking game and the gun he was using was a special keep- sake gun belonging to his father. lime, poison, drugs, chemicals, shocking devices, traps and snares used for or in the unlawful taking of furs, fish or game of any kind found in the possession of or used by any person unlawfully taking or transporting furs, fish or game of any kind, shall be seized by the officers making the arrest, and upon a finding by the court that they were used in the unlawful taking or transportation of furs, fish or game, the same shall be confiscated and after having been held by the fish and game board for a period of six months, shall be sold at public auction by the fish and game board, and the proceeds therefrom conveyed into the fish and game account in the general fund." You will note from this provision of the law that where a person is found to be illegally taking game, which is hunting out or fishing out of season or in violation of one of the other laws regulating the taking of game, the equipment used to take this game is required to be seized by the f ' AMERICA, THE. . . smoggy skies, for pes-ticid- ed grain. Irradiated mountains rise above an asphalt plain. the Superintendent principals feel a need for upgrading the use of materials and equipment, they make a request to take their faculty to the As LM.C. or have personnel from the LM.C. come to their school to conduct a faculty meeting designed to help teachers improve their skills in the desired areas. Many educationally oriented companies have staff consultants for the purpose of instructing teachers in the use of their materials. This is a fine service which our district is continually using through the LM.C. Next year, the staff plans to conduct many workshops throughout the year. Teachers may choose to attend a predetermined number of these workshops. It is our hope that through such a program, instruction will be upgraded. Production of materials, to be used with the many types of equipment currently being used in our district, is a large program in and of itself. The LM.C. has an laboratory which is to be utilized by teachers, students, and citizens. Each school has a smaller production laboratory with less specialized equipment. It is our hope to eventually have every teacher knowledgeable of the production skills necessary to function in a modern school situation. College courses are taught regularly at the LM.C. in the fields of media history, media utilization, media administration, production of media, and use of audiovisual equipment Our teachers, as well as interested citizens, are welcome to enroll in any of these courses. As you can see, the program of selection of media, as well as the task of keeping educators current in their instructional practices, is an important responsibility of the LM.C. During the past 5 years educational technology has been increasing at such a rapid rate that keeping teachers and knowledgeable of their proper use in education becomes a difficult task. This is another responsibility for which the personnel at our LM.C. has been charged. . The LM.C. has the responsibility of keepitg abreast of the many new items of equipment being introduced to the educaIn a time of apparent tional market. prosperity, as well as a time when an children visited at Strawberry for two days season.

You know a 19 year old lad can grow up quite fast when hes told that a couple of century notes must be in sight before theyll permit his wife and kid to leave the hospital Thats Instant Education coming late. I was talking to an intelligent feller recently on this subject. He said that after three children, he finally learned the importance of hospital insurance and I know another guy who borrowed on his life insurance thirty years ago to get his wife and kid out of hock and hes still paying interest on that loan.

You know its amazing how calm those doctors can be with in the midst of all that screaming. I said: Doc, is there a chance of that gal dieing?" No, I dont think so," he answered.

Its true; one shouldnt go through the throes of childbirth before marriage, but they can see it on film and they can hear the screams of emotionally imature girls having babies. I think this can lead to fewer child marriages. A few more girls will start carrying rocks in their purses and a few more boys may show up with a lump between their eyes but it will pay off in the long run. The View From Here By Ruth Aunt Bess says that she agrees with Will Rogers when he said, People who fly into a rage, always made a bad landing." But, she also says that she is sure that a person who has never flown into a rage has also never had a party line telephone. Aunt Bess has one, and she so far has had some bad moments with.the arrangement, but because of her location she knows that she just has to make the be't of it. That is unless she just decides to give up and use the postal system or pigeon instead like one of her friends. This lady also lived in the party line area and one day she just lost her temper and tore the phone off the wall and sent it by parcel post to the telephone company with a note With the gabbers on my line I saying, never get a chance to use it so you may as well let someone else use it." She FINANCE Our young people must be taught that they cant pay $150 per month for rent, drive a $4000 car on an income of $350 and you cant winbyborrowing money from a credit house paying 15, 20 and yes even 30 percent interest Just thought Id mention a few things that should be taught heavily in school and it may help some of these bright eyed youngsters to be more successful in their marriages. I think too many of them go into this important activity and theyve never had the responsibility of even picking up their own clothes or making their own beds. emphasis has been placed on educational technology, many good, and some not so good, items of equipment are flooding the market There are those who would exploit the schools tax payers for their own financial gain. I have felt that to have one member of the staff who would be responsible . to study, evaluate, and recommend certain items of materials that could be purchased for the schools of our district would be worthwhile. It is this responsibility that Mr. Argyle, as director of the LM.C., has. The LM.C. is also attempting to have on display all new items of equipment that principals may wish to evaluate for purchase. This alone saves hours of valuable time for our Along these principals and teachers. same lines, we are initiating a program this fall whereby every company wishiis to introduce their materials to principals and teachers with ultimate purchase in mind, must have a clearance from the LM.C. to visit our schools. This will tend to eliminate the transient salesman as well as the shyster. Many of you may think these rules are somewhat unnecessary, but in a day and age when so many questionable materials and equipment are being infiltrated into school systems, we think that every precaution taken is worthwhile. With the many new items of material and equipment coming into our district, there comes the problem of continually upgrading teachers proficiency In the use of these materials. It is for this reason that theI.M.C. conducts workshops, faculty meetings, seminars, and college classes. ed Rothe had a lot of thinking . to do about that little episode. Aunt Bess says that even on the best of days she has problems with her line but now that school is out she has even more and even worse ones. She says that a day just recently topped them all though. She had been annoyed with children on her line who would lift up the receiver while she was using the telephone and instead of waiting for her to finish they would jiggle the do dad or listen in, and all in all make it almost impossible to hear the person or carry on their conversation. This had gone on twice during long distance conversations the day before and she had tried to ignore them, but after having a repeat performance as she tried to talk to a business man this day, Aunt Bess lost her temper. She was in a rage. When the other party hung up Aunt Bess didnt, and sure enough someone on her line immediately raised their receiver. Aunt Bess let them have it and they knew exactly how she felt. Aunt Bess thought she was ready for anything they said, but she wasnt. Like Will Rogers said she had flown into a rage and she had made a very bad landing. In a perfeclty controlled voice she heard a man say, lam sure you are upset, but I had nothing to do with it." And then he hung up. Where she had been shaking with anger now she shook with embarrassment, and wondered why she didnt keep her cooL Since then she says that she read a quotation by Service which might have helped if she had read it earlier. He stated, Be master of your petty annoyances and conserve your energies for the big, worthwhile things. It isnt the mountain ahead that wears you out its the grains of sand in your shoes. Aunt Bess says that from now on she is going to be calm, serene, and composed when such things come up and wouldnt it be a good quality for all of us to develop? m pueiizi Ainr Shell and his 12 blind classmates were officially presented their new canine yes" in graduation ceremonies on Saturday, marking the successful completion of their training.

Each dog receives five months of schooling when a year old, and is tested in heavy traffic by a licensed instructor under blindfold before being considered ready to serve a blind master. The dogs are individually selected for each blind person after the first three days of observation by the training staff, in order to insure the best possible match in size and temperament for a ek well-balanc- ed team.
