This should cut you down to size, a bit. Chances are your whole family can sit in it. The chair is outside, right in front of their door. Next to it is an upholstered Italian Provincial Chair that is a giant Most people when shown the regular chair inside the store and asked how much bigger they think the one in front is, reply that the one outside is at least ten times bigger. It is a whopper and is taller than you are. But, it is not ten times larger. Each part of the chair was made double the size of the original part. The Italian chair cost $800 to build it and the freight was $90. Together, the weight of the two chairs is 685 pounds. It is something to see. recover the spacecraft wherever it landed.

It will be remembered that last year a demonstration was held to show what phonics-trainyoungsters could do and little Eugene Kohlbecker, son of Mr. and Mrs. Eugene Kohlbecker, 3225 Bon View Drive, nonchalantly wrote on the blackboard, without hesitation, the following sentence: I will augment my income by mowing lawns." Young Eugene had no idea what it meant but he, thrdugh phonics, could spell it without error. This year little Miss Joady Rees read from a fifth grade level book, such words as penetrating, which was hew to her. She also read without hesitation, giving the proper sounds to such vowel combinations as .'. . oi, oy, ea, au, aw, ow; she spelled such words as hoist, proud capricious.

Edgar Hoover, FBI chief, has issued a warning to parents regarding the menace of the child molester. With the approach of vacation time it is doubly important that all parents caution their youngsters of the danger. A few rules to give the children, are: 1. Report to an adult you know the description of any person who touches the youngster in any kind of a strange manner. i not approach a closer than ten car strange feet. 3. Do not accept food or candy from a stranger. 4. Report any adult, whom you do not know, who is hanging around children at play. 5. To let your parents know where you can be found at all times. Mr. Hoover urges parents to do their part in asking the courts and parole and proba 2. Do tion authorities to insure that sex maniacs are not turned loose on society. The foul history of Donald Payne, who was added to the FBIs list of Ten Most Wanted Fugitives on Oct. 6, 1960, reveals the leniency shown to his type of criminal. Here is his sordid score: Separate convictions for raping two girls, 9 and 15; conviction for per- version upon a boy and a charge of perversion upon a woman, and, as a Top old Ten fugitive, charged with allegedly raping an girl and reportedly perpetrating a vicious sex attack on a boy, 12 years old. His punishment includes two paroles, two commutations of sentences, one escape, and one attempted escape from prison. old There are too many instances where children have been atrociously assaulted by criminals paroled time after time and again after already committed similar offenses. . To alert your child against this type of person is the re- of the parents. Tho the schools and churches are helping a parent does not add the needed emphasis and approval of action so necessary in this case. A thing to keep in mind is to designate, to your children, certain homes along school routes or other areas which are frequently by your children, where they may seek assistance should they be accosted by strangers. sponsibility non-concern- ed |
