Better Grades 28 Its Important To Know How To Take A Test By The Reading Laboratory Written (or Newspaper Enterprise Assn. It's just as important to know how to take a test as it is to know how to prepare for it. Bring plenty of paper to the test. If you use a fountain pen, bring a bottle of ink, too. Al ways bring two ballpoint pens, of if you use pencils, bring at least two well-sharpened ones. You can write faster with ball points than with fountain pens and there's not much chance of smearing or blotting the ink. You should get there on time but not early.

Name Address City : State CUB SCOUT OUTING All members of the family were invited to the recent outing planned by Siskiyou County Cub Scouts at the Pluto Lava Caves near Grenada. The sack supper at the mouth of the caves, pictured here, was well received after moms and dads joined the young scouts for a hike Into the black caverns. An evening camp fire and candlelight Bobcat ceremony concluded the activities for some 400 persons who participated in the fall outdoor and underground roundup. Family Outing Near Grenada Opens New Year For Siskiyou Cub Scouts GRENADA Cub Scouting is a family affair and the new Cub Scout year was launched recently in Siskiyou County with a mass family outing at t h e Pluto Lava Caves near Grena da. Games, a picnic, cave explor ation, and a Bobcat ceremony w ithin one of the caves provid ed a memorable Cub Scout fall roundup for more than 400 par ticipants. Nearly every community in Siskiyou County was represent ed by a contingent of C u b Scouts, leaders, and parents, as well as brothers and sisters in a full scale age range. Those who traveled the far thest were the Happy Camp Cubs, who live in the north western part of the county, nearly 100 miles from the Road Bids Date Set SALEM (UPH-Bids for high way projects expected to total $12.2 million will be opened Nov. 19 by the Slate Highway Depart ment.

If you have a few butterflies in your stomach, don't worry about them; they'll go away when the test starts. When you get the test, read the instructions very carefully. A minute spent reading instruc tions can save you a lot of time and trouble. 'For instance, there may be 10 questions on the test, but the instructions may tell you to do only seven.) Then read over the entire test. Look for ambiguous questions and clear them up with the teacher. Figure out approx- roundup site. Pluto Lava Caves, about 10 miles east of Grenada, are lo cated in a barren scrub juniper area and are not particularly well known outside the county. Les Fasig, scout executive for the Shasta Silvcrtip District (Siskiyou County) who arranged the roundup, marked the route to the caves with cardboard signs for the occasion. The caves were formed hun dreds of years ago when the molten center of a lava flow found a drainage outlet. During centuries of erosive forces, huge boulders fell from the ceiling of these lava tubes mak ing the floor of the caves a massive jumble of rocks. One of these caves extends three miles underground, but even the most agile Cub Scout seemed content w ith a h a I f mile scramble into the cave depths. Some of the accompa nying mothers would have been content with much less. There are no developed paths in the caves and Stygian black ness exists a short distance from the cave mouth, so ev eryone was dependent on ev eryone ebe for guidance and help from flashlights. Fasig halted the tour where the cave begins to narrow and tried to get everyone to turn their flashlights off to get the experience of total darkness. But the spelunking boys of 8 to 11 just couldn't resist the desire to know how Ihe next TRY IT AT THE LUCCA CAFE World fomout-Dalicioui BROASTED CHICKEN PIZZA PIE Rtal Italian Shrlt Orders to Go, Too LUCCA CAFE PHONE TU 4-3276 2354 S. 6th imatcly how much time you can afford to spend on each ques tion. Stick to your time budget as closely as possible. Answer the questions you know best first. Don't waste time sweating over something you don't know. Finish the test, then come back to ones you couldn't figure out imme diately. One very important rule: Think before you start writing. If the questions are essay type, make a mental outline of your answer before you begin to write. Be sure you know exact ly what you want to say that way you won't ramble off the point in your answer. Some stu dents prefer to begin each es say answer with a written out line of what their answer will cover. Beginning each answer with an outline is a highly rec ommended practice if you're sure that your answer is the cor rect one. Remember that an out line lays everything out in its bare bones if you're wrong, your teacher is bound to catch you. On the other hand, an out- person looked in the dark. Sack suppers at the mouth of the oaves followed the cave ex pedition, and this was followed by an evening campfire in a natural ampitheatcr in the depths of one of the caves. New Cub Scouts were inducted into scouting with a candlelight Bob cat ceremony. Surrounded by ample oppor tunities for bumps and broken limbs, the majority of the roundup participants trudged back to cars with only aching muscles as their outing after math. Miscellaneous scrapes and bruises were all minor. "It was neat," was the sum mation offered by one Cub Scout.

He will have a nat ural tendency to raise your grade for clearly-written an swers. If it's a multiple choice test, answer all the ones you're sure of first these are your strong response answers. Then work on the ones you're not so sure of. On a weak response question when you're in doubt your first choice will usually be the best one. The longer you pon der, the more possibilities you'll think of and the more ton fused you'll get. For the same rcasun, never change an answer on a multiple - choice test un less you're really positive your first answer was wrong. On a weak response question, trust your first response. Take all the time allotted. You don't get any points for being the first one to finish. When your teacher returns the test, see what you did wrong and find out what the right an swers were. They may come up again on a later test. You should also make a note on the type of lest your teacher gave and what kind of questions he asked. You will have a better idea of what to expect the next time around. (Next: Ing.)
