school and to expand the pro
gram to include two different
age divisions. Is also has been
suggested that the l!M0-(il

j earlier, in the year, probably
between the winter and spring
i sports activities.

Lacy pointed out tl.e dan
gers of limiting the scope and
sequence on any skill subject
such as speaking. He stated
there arc six basic areas in
which elementary school
teachers may contribute to
their pupils' speaking needs:
talking and listening; phon
etics, or articulation; improv
ing fluency; voice improve
ment; effective delivery; and
speech correction.
L a c y reminded teachers
that the more complex prob
lems .should be referred to
clinics such as the one direct
ed by Leon Mulling of South
ern Oregon college. Help of
fered by the state department
speech consultant should also
be utilized.
Lacy said speech work helps
to mold and develop the
child. Riving him an oppor
tunity to put his aptitude for
oral expression to use. The
child learns to think on his
feet, and gains self confi
dence. Among other things,
he learns to lake notes and
the value of research matcr
'.:'.!. About !)0 per cent c;f 3
typical adult's activities are
ntilied through his oral activity.

Out on
a Limb
By BOB WALTERS
All Us Cats
A while back we discussed
fillers, those one-paragraph
bits of miscellany used to fill
out columns where the news
stories fall a bit short. They're
amusing, we think, because
usually they have absolutely
nothing lo do with the stories
they follow.
In the same vein are some
of the small "box" advertise
ments which appear in the
paper several times during
any given week.
They're incongruous too
but, if placed properly, they
could add something to the
factual reports of the news.
Take, for instance, a
lengthy yarn about the
promises, charges and counter-charges
made by a poll
tician or a group of poli
ticians. After scanning sev
eral paragraphs of such a
story (and they're certain
ly plentiful right about
now), most readers prob
ably would agree with the
placement of this, ad:
"Gassy?"
Or there might be a story,
such as the UPI feature print
ed in the Tribune a week or
so ago, about life in San Fran
cisco's beatnik colony.
Like, it could go on and on
about pads, the fuzz, squares
and who needs people, man,
and wind up with this;
"All Us Cats Love Dr.
Ross's Cat Food."
Maybe an important story
breaks and all the officials
who know the real facts
take refuge in "no com
ment" replies and then tuck
their heads back into their
respective shells. An ad like
this one following the story :
might make them a little
more talkative: I
"Powerful New Plunger
Clears Clogged . . ." Et
cetera.
Tile above, we'd like the
advertising d e p a r tment to
know, has been merely an
attempt at jest and in no way
implies that the Mail Tribune
will adopt the suggestions.
After all. we know where
our bread is oleomargarined.
Saw a curious sight on
one of the local used car
lots the other afternoon. A
TV announcer was helping
a car salesman move an
auto into position for a
photograph. But they were
n't driving it. they were I
pushing.
After that, we thought
the station might like to use
this slogan lo climax its
daily program schedule:
"More people get their j
lemons from this channel
than from any other single
source in southern Oregon."
... ,
On the other hand, though,
we liked the one pulled off
by a Medford disc jockey one j
morning.
"I did a favor for a friend
once." said the deejay, "and
he promised me he'd never '
forge! me ss long a; he lived.
Sure enough, he meant It.
"Last night he called to tell i
1 me he was in trouble again."
Mrs. Nye to Speak
At Talent Meeting
Talent The Talent Wom
en's club will hold its busi
ness and social meeting at
I 2 p.m. tomorrow in the Talent
city hall
Final plans will be made
for guest day scheduled for
June 7. Special speaker for
the afternoon will be Mrs.
Stephen G. (Eve) Nye, incum
bent for state representative.
She will speak on education.
District chairman for the Ore
gon Federation of Women's
clubs also will be present.
Cleanup Program
Starts at Cemetery
Gold Till-Cleanup week at
the Rock Point cemetery
north of Gold Hill will begin
today and last through this
Saturday.
Mrs. A. A. Walker, chair
man of the cemetery improve
ment committee, said a gen
eral cleanup is planned to
clear all debris in preparation
for Memorial Day. Anyone in
terested is invited to partic
ipate. Happy Camp-Word was re
ceived here this week that
Happy Camp High school is
the only school in Siskiyou
Union High School district to
be granted permission to open
their cafeteria next school
year.
