For School Use Today's crowded schools and overburdened teachers need self assistance from students who want to get the most from their school years. "Learning to Study", a filmstrip presentation in seven units, prepared by The Jim Handy Organization, is de signed to help the teacher to pre sent the basic points concerning study skills in an appealing manner. The cartoon treatment and humor of these filmstrips catch the interest-of the student and emphasize the value of obvious ly simple study methods. If the stems of watermelons are not treated with a copper sulfate paste after picking, the melons may be s o spoiled b y atem-end rot as to be unsalable when they reach market, says the National Geographic 'Society. Parents Advised to Show Interest in Child's School Work Do you fail your children by neglecting to give the proper at tention to school work they bring home to show you? Par ents often do, simply, because they are busy with other things or preoccupied with their own thoughts of business or home making. This can prove very disillus ioning to children who look to their parents for interest and appreciation of their efforts. One way to solve this is to make the dinner hour the time for your children. Set aside this time to forget your own interests and really look at and discuss your first-grader's drawings or paintings . . . and praise your school child's test paper with a good mark that he has brought to you so proudly. It will pay big dividends in your children's development and in a warm feeling of family unity. Mora and more American schools are taking the responsi bility of helping the school child to adjust socially and psychol ogically to the world around him. This fall will find thousands of schools throughout the coun try equipped to give special at tention to maladjusted children, handicapped children, children with particular health, econom ic, and home environment pro blems. Many schools now have coun selors who discuss social and scholastic problems with stu dents and their parents. Elementary schools have started such counseling service so that maladjusted children will be discovered as early as possible, and a remedial pro gram provided immediately. In unusual cases provision has been made for clinical studies to assist in this program. Many schools employ a clini cal psychologist to interview students or to train teachers how to observe and find mal adjusted children. Teachers are being trained specially to conduct classes for these children. In an increasing number of schools, definite programs have been established for the train ing of children with speech and hearing difficulties, cerebral palsy and other physical handi caps. These programs not only pro vide for maladjusted and physi cally-handicapped children but for those who suffer from some minor personality and scholas tic problem. I These many and diversified: programs in our schools help not only the .student, but the parent also. Parents of chil dren with a particular problem are urged to cdnsult the school principal or counselor . before the new term begins so that the child can get off to a good start. Parents are also urged to par ticipate actively in Parent Teacher associations to further these programs in their local schools. A much closer relationship has been established between parent, teacher, . and student through such counseling programs. i Reducing Guide Parents of overweight chil dren should not begin any re ducing plans without a physi cian's guidance as many chil dren cannot go on severe diets without injuring their health. Doctors, as a rule, advise con tinuing three nvals a day, and almost without exception, diet ing in moderation so that re ducing is slower, but far health ier. Parents, Too, ! Go Back to School Now This Fall will find thousands of American parents, as well as their children, returning to school! They may do their home work alongside their offspring- some even working on the same subjects. I Statistics show that more than 20,000.000 adults will be enroll-1 ing in a wide assortment of classes this Fall. j Subjects will range from sci entific farming to oil painting and philosophy. One quality, ; these adult students all have in .common, is a desire for self-improvement, for economic or cul tural gain. Sec. n.
