Development of
For Lincoln PTA;
Each child must be considered
as an individual, with his own
special ideas, "emotions and
thoughts, stated Dr. Andrew
Bulkley, Medford pediatrician,
at a meeting of the Lincoln Parent-Teacher
association, Novem
ber 8. Children should not be
compared to each other, either
in physical growth or mental
development he said, although
each child goes through three
physical growth spurts, and at
least two mental or emotional
development spurts. Physically
a child spurts up during the
first year, then between 4 to six
years and then in adolescence,
the speaker declared. Spurts in
emotional growth occur during
the years of one to four and
again during adolescence, Dr.
Bulkley said.
Parents who believe thei
child is not progressing normal
ly should remember that what
is a normal weight or height for
a neighbor's child might not be
normal for theirs, because of
heredity backgrounds, the doctor
said. Dr. Bulkley described
ways to help the child adjust
to school, and mentioned emo
tional experience which might
make some children physically
ill. ,
Dr. Bulkley finished his talk
by warning parents and teachers
that special care should be ex
ercised with children who have
a" physical disability such as
'l-eart trouble, diabetics, epilept
ics, or hearing and visual diffi
culties. Parents should inform
the school if their child has any
of these difficulties, but they
also should be careful not to be
over-protective as this could
lead to hypochondriacism, he
said.
Roy Gilbertson, principal, ex
plained the function of the Mod
ford Council of PTA, and how
the budget for that organization
has been raised in the past. At
present three cents out of the 50
cent membership fee is paid by
the local unit to the council to
help make up the budget but
also in the past food sales, etc.
were used to add to the amount
The proposal was put to the
Lincoln unit that the dues to the
Medford council be raised from
three cents to five cents, and
this was approved by the unit.
One purpose of the Medford
Council is to aid in the estab
lishment of new units in .the
city, two of which are being
started this year at Hedrick Ju
nior High and Jefferson schools.

The Oregon Associated Coun

sist the visually handicapped

ful and productive lives. "A
blind person is a normal person
who is merely visually handi
capped, and he has a right to
live a useful and productive
life," an officer of the society
states. "He doesn't want pity
nor charity. Many employers do
not realize, and the general pub
lic perhaps does not either, that
these visually handicapped peo
ple can be gainfully employed,
gainful to the employer as well
as themselves. The need has to
be brought before the public,
and that is one aim of the Jack
