Eagle Pt. Grade School By Gaylt Grow, Brenda Eol.nberj and S u a n Harper Mrs. Brigg's students have large United States maps to use when they see films. They put the products of each state on xne maps after they see the films. Soon the children will have a large wooden calendar with removable days. Terry Smith, Kenneth Mesloh, Jack Davis and Rodney Sowards have worked on the calendar. Karl Hays, Jackson county director of special education, brought a rat to their room and the children take turns every day taking care of him. Gale Mattern and Jerry Moore are using their electric board to learn new words. When the words match, the light turns on. The boys in this room made two of these boards. James Collier's eighth grade class went on a field trip March 29 to Jacksonville museum. The class was divid ed into two groups with Mrs. Garret and Miss Mary Hanley as guides. The first display Mrs. Garret's group saw was the children s room, which in cluded a display of different toys children played with, the bed they slept in, and a bowl and pitcher used for washing. The "Old Fashioned" parlor had chairs, tables, a sofa, a large picture, mirror, music stand and an old fashioned piano belonging to Miss Ame lia Britt. Students also went to the court room in which there were many different cases. Another room had displays such as China, jewelry, shoes, fans, and dishes, and in anoth er display were metal shoes and portable scales used to weigh the gold dust. They viewed a studio much like that which Peter Britt, Oregon artist and photogra pher, used. Mrs. Garret told them that in 1852 Peter Britt brought the first camera to Oregon. In 1874 he took the first picture of Crater Lake and in 1875 he painted a pic ture of Crater Lake. In the same room was a wooden rocking chair belonging to Mrs. Pat Dunn's daughters. It crossed the plains in 1816. They went to the Indian relic room to view skulls, rifles, and clothes, and then saw a petrified Tempski Fern, the first plant that grew on earth to take tree form. They also saw an American Eagle that had been killed in 1927 on the Emil Britt ranch on Rogue river near Eagle Point. John Heald and Loretta Shaw have moved from the school. They were students of James Collier's class. John moved to Pequot Lake, Minn., and Loretta moved to Port Orford, Ore.

The boys, dele gates of the student body, at tended the conference from March 18 to 20. Fred discussed the intellec tual basis of leadership, stress ing the need for a program, ability to work hard, and un derstanding of human nature, Florian compared St. Mary's student council to the average of the schools in attendance. He hinted at several new ideas for making a social program click. John explained differ ent spiritual Ideals, and gave a humorous account of the banquet and other social af fairs connected with the trip. All of the boys ended by saying that the experience was of great value, and that all who get the chance to at tend the conference next year should take advantage of it The Marian Choir is sched uled to lead the congregation in the Palm Sunday proces sion following the blessing of the Palms at 7 o'clock. This is the first time that the complete service, includ ing the procession outside the church building has taken place in Medford. A dramatic moment is the knocking on the closed church door with the processional cross to sym boize the rejection of Christ by His own people, and His repeated efforts to gain their allegiance. The procession is followed by a low Mass. Washington School AH six grades of Washing ton school gave a "Safety First Revue". The primary purpose was to teach chil dren safer ways and means in work and play. The first grade sang and pantomined "School Safety on the Playground." Large posters and drama tization illustrated the second grade's theme of keeping medicine away from eager hands, toys off stairways, and safety with plastic bags. A play on Safety To and From School" gave the third graders a chance to perform. A little devil tried to tempt children not to cross at cross walks, to talk to strangers, and not to stop at stop signs. But, the little angel took over and showed the children the right thing to do. "Bicycle Safety" by the fourth graders consisted of two bicycles, one with a hap py face because its master had treated it kindly, and a bi- ycle with a sad face because its master had been cruel to it and not obeyed traffic sig nals. Careless Imp was played by Mike Beal, and Earl Ruhl was Mr. Bicycle Safety. Two speakers, Sharon Mast and Berlette Stephens, spoke on "Safety in Organized Sports." While they were speaking, several other fifth graders acted out the wrongs in playing baseball and track.

Cindy S. - I want to tell my friend about her husband' teasing. Victor S. - It will break up tne friendship. Cindy S. - My problem in volves my relationship with my oldest and dearest friend, Trudy. We are both in our mid-20s, married, and we go out to gether with our husbands quite often. Trudy's husband is a funny sort of guy. He constantly teases me in a way that annoys me. He keeps call ing attention to the way I look or my mannerisms. Sometimes he flatters me too much and at other times I think he's making fun of me. I've tried to show in every way that I don't like it, but he doesn't catch on. I want to talk to Trudy about it and get him to stop, but my husband thinks I'd better not. Victor S. - Cindy is afraid of breaking up her friendship with Trudy because she is so annoyed by her husband, but I think the surest way of breaking things up would be for her to talk to Trudy about this. Cindy claims that they have always confided in each other and been, very honest with each other, but in my opinion Trudy won't be able to take any criticism of her husband- no matter how tactful Cindy is about it. Personally, I think Cindy is making a mountain out of a molehill. This guy, Al, isn't a bad sort - just not too smart. I think he feels that Cindy doesn't like him and he re sents it. The Council: Victor is right. No good and much harm may result from Cindy's dis cusing this situation with her friend. It would be natural for Trudy to be deeply hurt and immediately react with an ger. She might be able to con ceal this hurt and anger in the name of the friendship she and Cindy have long en joyed, but then the incident would fester in her mind. It would eventually undermine the friendship. It is likely that Trudy is aware of her husband's an noying teasing of her friend, Possibly she is trying to get him to let up, but just hasn't had any more success than Cindy. We think the best tiling Cin dy can do is come out in the hind a colorful water scene for the characters in the sixth grade's show on the what nots to do in swim ming. WARRANTY Super Deluxe Mode!

Her manner should not indi cate any anger or hostility. It should be simple, cool and de cisive. If this statement does not make Al change his manners, Cindy has no choice except to taper off the relationship or to confine her meetings with Trudy to times when they can go out together without their husbands. Some women do manage to maintain good friendships in this way when the husbands don't fit com fortably into the social pic ture. We think Victor may have put nis linger on the sore point when he suggested that Al simply doesn't know how to cope with the fact that he is disliked by Cindy. It is pos sible that Cindy unwittingly created this situation and can do something toward dissolv ing it by showing that she likes Al, but dislikes his teas ing.

In a voluminous report, a special committee has re leased thoughts and recom mendations on some of the most controversial social wel fare programs of the day, from ADC to relative respon sibility. The report was prepared by the social policy and action committee of the Oregon chapter, National Association of Social Workers. It has the support of the Joint Council for Social Welfare legislation, which speaks for an estimated 700 social workers in the state. Presented to Committee Entitled "This Changing World," it has been presented to the legislative interim com mittee on public welfare. Sub jects covered are administra tion, general assistance, old age assistance, aid to depend ent children and relative re sponsibility. On ADC, which has been subjected to considerable at tack in recent years, the re port asks for the elimination of residence requirements, a single grant of aid to states, more research, better food standards, retention of chil dren under 14 on the ADC rolls during summer months. more skilled personnel, and appointment of a citizens ad visory committee to conduct studies and develop sound public relationships. 'We believe too few efforts have been made ... to real istically and factually explain the purpose, scope, and func tion of the program (ADO." the report slates. "We strong ly feel that more than any other public assistance pro gram, ADC is the most widely misunderstood, most common ly misrepresented, and most often unjustifiably criticized. This trend, if it continues. threatens the existence of a program which affects more children at the formative; years oi lite man any other public assistance activity. An estimated six million children are covered by this program across the country." Active many years In wom en's work of the Church of uoa, Mrs. Hatch has been a member or the executiva com. mittee and director ot the mis sionary education program for me national Woman's Mission ary Society.
