THE DECATUR DEMOCRAT, DECATUR, INDIANA

Meeting Held Here By Northwest PTA The Northwest elementary school parent-teacher association held its regular monthly meeting Thursday evening in the school auditorium. The business meeting was presided over by Clarence Painter, pr«._.dent. The meeting was opened with devotions by the Rev. J. O. Penrod, using as his text Proverbs 22 v. 6: “Train up a child in the way he should go, and when he is old he will not depart from it.” The minutes and treasurer's reports were read. Several committee chairmen gave reports. After the business session, Miss Glennys Roop's fifth grade presented a choral reading entitled, “Let’s Be Thankful.” This reading was written and directed by Miss Roop. The class then sang three selections, under the direction of Paul Liechty, music instructor. Included were: “Now Thank We All Our God,” "Prayer of Thanksgiving,” and “Come, Ye Thankful People, Come!” Following this a panel discussion was held. The topic was “A parent’s responsibility to the child in school.” Each panelist gave a brief outline of his or her phase oi responsibility to the child. The teacher indicated the parent must show interest in the child’s school work and give help if needed. She stressed the importance of reading. The minister told the group that religious training is not for Sunday only but is a necessary part of each day. The importance of this was illustrated in a clever fable. He closed by saying home is the child’s first classroom. The nurse emphasized the health rules to be followed to help keep illness at a minimum. She stated the following rules: 1, Proper rest; 2, good nutrition; and 3, cleanliness. She mentioned that the schools furnish T. 8., hearing, and vision screening tests. The parent observed that children imitate parents so they must at all times be good examples. He also stressed that parents must cooperate with the teacher, particularly in discipline. He noted the importance of discussing the child with the teacher even if no difficulty is present. A spirited question and answer period followed the panelists’ discussions. The panel was composed of the following: nurse, Mrs. Gail Grabill, county school nurse; teacher, Mrs. Irene Friedley, second grade teacher at Northwest; minister, the Rev. Gerald Gerig, pastor 6f the Decatur Missionary church: and parent, Clifford Hoverman. The discussion was moderated by Richard Linn. The hospitality committee served refreshments at the close of the meeting. The P.T.A. will hold a ,rag drive next week. Any person in the community wishing to donate rags should have them at the school not later than Wednesday morning. “Call 3-2806 or 3-3446 if you desire to have someone call for your donation.” Weather Rocket ls Fired In Hawaii HONOLULU (UPI) — A Navy rocket carrying 12 pounds of meteorological instruments was fired 40 miles into space Thursday to initiate a series of 15 weather probes for the’Hawaiian Islands.

Candidates Fail To Impress Farmers CHICAGO (UPD—Farmers and stockmen appear to be “vastly unimpressed with the farm programs and promises” of both Vice President Richard M. Nixon, and Sen. John F. Kennedy, the Com Belt Farm Dailies said today. The farm publications said In a special staff report that “one of the longest, loudest and most active presidential campaigns in American history has apparently failed to. faze a great many farmers and stockmen in any way.” The Corn Belt Farm Dailies said interviews conducted by reporters at the Chicago, Omaha and Kansas City stockyards last week indicated that * the numbers of ‘undecided’ and ‘won’t tell’ potential voters remain large as election time raoidly approaches.” A central Nebraska farmer told a reporter “neither Nixon nor Kennedy cares much for the farmer. And we can’t blame them. We don’t have the votes any more.” Many stockmen expressed “distrust of campaign talk by both candidates,” the Farm Dailies article said, and at Kansas City a Drovers Telegram reporter was told that “both presidential candidates are — liars as far as many of their promises are concerned.” “The big number of ’undecided’ and ‘won’t tell’ voters this year includes every conceivable combination of Catholic and Protestant, Democrat and Republican," the newspapers reported.
