How to Prepare Children
For a Changing World
by L. Ron Hubbau
The only salvation I believe a child might have in the shifting patterns of
our times is the ability to do quick studies of common subjects. Universities
often say it is needed and never teach it well in practice. It is not so muc
knowing where to look but HOW to look and a familiarity with looking that
can bring the child to a state of rapid study ability.
I would very greatly appreciate an early introduction of this into their
schooling. It is a changing world. Many higher subjects are not stable to
day for a year at a time. Botany, horticulture, physics and the like are in a
mad state of change. I feel the student is only rescued by acquiring an abili-
ty to examine and know at great speed. This applies to search in texts, of
course but even more widely in search in the physical universe.
Therefore, I would greatly appreciate it if teachers would please intro­
duce (and develop the skills for it) what we call RESEARCH into the chil­
When the Motor Vehicles Division opens its three Portland area DMV
Express offices late this month or in early October, customers will be
treated to a "new look” fo r DMV, according to DMV Administrator Dave
Moomaw.
The new look is the work of a Portland architectural firm, Zimmer,
Gunsul, Frasca Partnership. The office is decorated in shades of gray, win-
dren's training.
As one or all of them will be required in later years, the ability to EXA
MINE and KNOW may keep them from failing or at least from making huge
errors of judgment.
A sample of this would be a daily assignment to report on the exact and
somewhat complex status of something on the grounds.
Example of a simple assignment: Go find a flower and count its petals
and come back and tell me how many petals.
Example of a more complex assignment: Find a tree and a bush and find
all the differences you can between them.
Example of posing a problem: Go out and find a problem in the front
yard.
Later, when the child has a good command of reading, the following
could be done.
Example: How is steel made?
Example: When was the Tower of London built? Why was it built?
Example: How many kinds of cats are there? What are their differences?
This would not be AFTER a class study of steel, the Tower or cats. The
assignment would be "out of the blue." The child must learn first to find

The subject is further amplified by the addition of "suppositions.

ter white, blue and yellow and will have a modernistic literature rack and
counter for customers to use when filling out applications. Offices are car­
peted throughout, except immediately in front of the counter which has
tiles in shades of gray and canary yellow.
In addition to the new inside look, each office will be easily spotted
in its mall location with an outside lighted display sign above the entrance
comparable to those of other mall tenants, Moomaw said.
Moomaw said a grand opening for the Mall 205 DMV Express office
is scheduled for Sept. 28 at 10:30 a.m. Governor Neil Goldschmidt will cut
the ribbon and speak at the opening. Other transportation and public o ffi­
cials also are expected to attend the Mall 205 opening.

It is the sheerest folly to insist that ALL things have an exact answer. It
the child is trained to believe that all answers are found in books and that all
book answers are exact, his educational progress is stultified. This is, in
fact, an "operation" intended to enslave the child to current beliefs. As
many, the great majority, of these beliefs can be counted on to change
before the child is 25, it is a disservice to freeze his thinking for the period
during which he is being educated.
"Educational truths” as they apply in inexact subjects are created truths
and are of finite duration. The child who is educated to CHANGE is never
