MEDFORD Thoroughly Modern llr. and Mrs. J. E. Eaxley Proprietors and Joe Eorley iatice Children's Homework Poses Character By DAVII TAVI.OR MAKKE Al' newsreaiures writer Whether or not you believe In homework for Junior, if such work Is a school requirement the child should be helped to adjust him self to meet It successfully. The child who Is doing poorly In school, says the National Kinder garten Association, does so because of failure to study properly. All loo' often, he can be observed to pick up his arithmetic, sail right in and do well for a while. Then he comes to a problem that Is evi dently not ho easy. He makes one or two attempts to solve It, and finally tosses the book aside in favor of his speller. , This, too, he Is quite hsppy about for a time. He shuts his eyes In concentration and recites his words. Several appear to be stumb ling blocks. Again and again he glances at his list and finds he Is making slight mistakes In them. Instead of mastering the words he puts away his spelling book. Maybe he deludes himself with the belief he'll come back to It later. He goes on to "study" geog raphy. Here he becomes complete ly muddled over the rivers In Af rica and may not even take the trouble to try tracing them on the map. He mav excuse himself by saving they're too hard to bother villi, so long as ne knows some thing about the River Nile. Bv the time his bedtime rolls around he has finished nothing. Junior's like a soldier who quits Naval Captain To Visit Here Capt. C. P. Kershner. United States Navy, will- visit Klamath Falls and Naval Reserve units here Monday. According to present plans, he Is scheduled to arrive here by plane. He will speak at the regular Na val Reserve meeting In the Navy building, Municipal Airport, at 7:30 p.m. where he Is slated to talk on the latest "scuttlebutt" In relation to the Reserve and Its part In the present military setup.

'Parents must be on the lookout to check study habits oi mis kind, tne experts say, or junior will not amount to very mucn. It Is un to the parent to gently but firmly Insist that Junior finish one nublect before starting anoth er. It doesn't pay to scold. Rather try to make a game out of home work. One mother, who knew her son was Interested In stories about giants made use of this and caused her son to think of a puzzling prob lem as a giant to be overthrown. Every time he accomplished some thing he was tempted to lav aside he was overjoyed to think he had felled another giant. Today, if ne is ever Inclined to follow the line of least resistance and Just let things go, he thinks of those giants. And Ihe Job cannot be made the responsibility of the teachers alone. Without the self-sacrificing cooper ation of the parents the schools can do but little. Junior must be set 'on the right path with his homework and soon definite Im provement will be seen.
