Show I UINTAH BASIN STANDARD. November 4. 1987. Page IS Don't expect too much of children The kid with more freckle than a Sunday morning flapjack took a handoff from the quarterback. He printed to the right, met a tackier head-o- n and lost five yards on the play. Wake-up- , Gary! a grown man creamed from the sidelines. You shoulda cut sooner. You're looking awful out therel Gary was feeling awful without n that thunderous from his He knew he'd goofed. Dad. Actually, his Dad goofed, too. put-dow- He was expecting too much of Gary. After all, the kid had picked up seven yards on an slant just two plays before the disaster. Even Walter Payton can't do that every time he carries the off-tack- ball The moral of that little story is this: Expect a lot of your children, but not to much. If a parent or teacher expects a lot from a child, that child very often delivers. However, expecting too much of a child may lead to sad consequences. The parent who expects a atraight-report card or a touchdown in every game may be expecting too much. So where's the happy medium between expecting a lot but not too much? You, the parent, are very likely the best judge of that If your daughter fluffs a note in the school orchestra concert it isn't the end of the planet. Instead of openly criticizing your on or daughter, say you're proud of them for performing. After all, taking those kinds of risks with their egos requires a special kind of bravery. So don't carp. They'll get better with age. And so will you. ' nv Project Uplift seeks names Carrying on a tradition that began during the Korean War, students at Brigham Young University plan to send packages to LDS servicemen and women stationed worldwide. The ASBYU Community Services Office is seeking names and addresses of those who would benefit from this project. Sandra Chaney, director of Project Uplift, says she hopes to have about 2,000 names and addresses by November 15. They should be sent to 436 Wilkinson Center, BYU, Provo, Utah, 84604. Student volunteers will then make up Christmas packages containing such items as cards, pictures, nonerishable food items, toys and crafts. Any BYU student may volunteer to create a package. Last year, nearly, 1,000 packages were mailed, each carrying a message of love and appreciation for the sacrifice of LDS people in the armed forces, says Chaney. It is a great way of giving joy at Christmas time to those away from home. I'm excited about the project and hope to make it most successful" FFA News ALTAMONT NEWS Jeanette Larsen The Roosevelt FFA Chapter held their Greenhand Orientation on October 28. This orientation is held annually for members and their parents to explain the competitions and awards available through the FFA organization. While in the FFA, members are able to earn four degrees. The first of which is the Greenhand. After receiving this degree they move on to Chapter Farmer, State Farmer and American Farmer on the national level Lana Freston, Yasha Sparks, Clay Horrocks,' Steve Hadlack, Chris Larsen and Shane Labrum were presented with this award we would like to congratulate them on this first step to active participation in the FFA. The Roosevelt chapter of FFA recently attended the Snow College Judging Contest where Tasha Sparks, Lori Freston, Shane Labrum, Amy Mathisen, Devon Taylor, Lance Henderson, Morris Spence, competed in the Livestock Judging. Tasha Sparks received High Individual for her team with 289300 pis. This was an excellent achievement and its only her first year. 269 still have Scout Troop potatoes for sale.

The big contender, when it comes to producing portable energy from batteries, is the gasoline engine, he said.
