You Can Help In a world geared to accelerated communication, why do so many children fail at the most basic task reading? A tutor and remedial reading teacher. Jeraldine Stoute of Lubbock, Texas, analyzes the slow reader's background. "Let us look at the child of today. Soon after birth he Is placed in a cnb with an anticolic nurser while a mobile of colorful birds or objects hovers above to entertain him . . . From here he is moved to a playpen furnLshed with 'educational toys' ... He cannot ask a question and receive an answer . . . His next move Is to an area about 36 Inches from the TV set which also feeds him Information of questionable value. Still, he cannot question or voice an idea, or receive a re sponse . . ." It's a grim picture for the observer and a grimmer life ahead for the child. But there Is a solution and you're part of it! Teacher Stoute continues, "I am convinced that if young parents would read to their children for Just 20 minutes a day, there would be virtually no need for remedial reading classes." Pillars of Freedom A belief is gaining currency that repressive government may be the only aaswer to growing violence. Mr. J. Edgar Hoover, director of the Federal Bureau of Investigation, ex presses a different view. He says, "Some people imply that our choice today may be between anarchy and repression. In deed, it is not. Our choice today Is the same as that of our Founding Fathers some 200 years ago liberty and freedom under the rule of law. If we enforce the law when it is vio lated, we will perpetuate this choice, and we will have noth ing to fear from either anarchy or repression. Thus, let us make certain that the distinction Is clear the law and its enforcement are pillars of freedom, not repression." Pioneer Ponderings Stella f By W. S. CAVERHILL The Hcu?lng Problem The forrca.-ters at the nation al level see the reed for 26,(wO.- 000 additional family units in the next ten years. That might require an equal number of land surface acres. Too much. That prospect stim-d our coffee club members thinking on the matter. Once aroused, the brain tanks" in our member ship came up with a sugges tion "take a tip from the al kali bees, go under ground. Save our aratie acres lor pro duction and bore homes in the worthless hillsides. Eastern Ore gon offers a wonderful poten tial for such a program. Our rimrotks could provide a lot of nests for surplus population." Fantastic? Possibly, but our scientists are planning some thing similar for the moon. 2 HsK C ' t .1 H m. i - "3 iff 7 ft f ; 7 ji 0 .11 WIDE-EYED SABRINA WHITE Is the newest and youngest 'mem ber of the lone American Legion Auxiliary. At the Department convention it was ruled that granddaughters of veterans could become members. She gained membership through her grand father.

Jean Jepsen, presents the tiny miss with her membership card. CHUCK WAGON Nona Sowell shot her first elk! It was a three point. Congratulations. A Sorry Performance Chile is said to be considering adopting a system of government patterned after the "Castro way" in Cuba. It Is hard to see what the Castro version of communism has a chieved in Cuba to make It attractive to another nation. Twelve years of Cuban communism has driven the country downhill. There are shortages of nearly everything. Almost everything Is rationed even sugar. Houses go unpainted. Essential services are disrupted by breakdowns of worn-out equipment. Quality of education has dropped. Unemploy ment is up simply because people don't want to work to earn money that will buy little. It is said that the gap between rich and poor has been narrowed, but an authority reports: "What this means is that people who used to eat well now eat badly, and people who used to eat badly still eat badly . . ." After twelve years, Cuba presents an example of the classic tragedy of commu nism. Congratulations, Jaycces Congratulations to the Morrow County Jaycees for provid ing a Candidates Night for the south end of Morrow County. Candidates and voters alike should have welcomed this op portunity. It gave the candidates a chance to sell themselves and make themselves known. It gave voters a chance to hear and help in their decision of how to vote. Another year we would welcome the introduction, at least, of the city candidates of Heppner, Lexington and lone. We hope the Jaycees will consider having a similar night for the next election. THAT NONE MAY HE FORGOTTEN!
