DECATUR DAILY DEMOCRAT Published Every Evening Except Sunday by THE DECATUR DEMOCRAT CO., INC. Stored at the Decatur, Ind., Port Office ai Second Claaa Dick D. Heller, Jr. President John G. Heller —— Vice President Chas. E. Holthouse Secretary-Treasurer > Our Former Chief Construction of a new station for the city police, to replace the old one-room station, has greatly enhanced the department’s facilities for its many and varied duties. Despite the continued growth of Decatur, the police had operated since 1939 out of the cramped quarters on the second floor of city hall. Life on the city police force was not a “bed of roses” in those past 25 years — and still isn’t — but during that time the department ran quite smoothly considering many disadvantages. The man most responsible for keeping the department together in some of its hardest times is James M. Borders, who has served this city capably and faithfully for the last 25 years. On January 1 of this new year, Borders quietly and graciously stepped down from the departmertt’s command to return to the rank in which he first began with the city police, that of a patrolman. He had requested the reduction in rank from Mayor Carl D. Gerber, who reluctantly accepted, and named Grover Odle as the new chief. When Borders joined the city police force on January 1, 1939, he was only the fourth member of the department. A short time prior to 1939, the police had moved fate the room on the upper floor —_. of the city hall building which was to remain their official headquarters until January 7 of this year. It was only five years after joining the force that Borders took over as chief. Despite the lack of space and facilities, Borders kept his department “up-to-date” with numerous innovations he devised in his spare time. .The city police have a very modern photography department, and a good portion of the equipment used was not purchased by taxpayers, but actually constructed by Borders through his knack of putting “spare parts” to use. The department’s records system and many other methods of its operations were introduced by Borders. The present members of the department, one of whom wasn’t yet born when Borders first put on his badge, presented him with an expensive gift at a squad meeting this week. The gift was given in * - appreciation of the 20 years as chief to the man they — and all residents of Decatur — will always know as “chief.” Editorial Written by Robert W. Shraluka, Jr.

You, Your Child And The School
By DAVID NYDICK UPI Education Specialist A comprehensive speech program is necessary for a student’s total development Adults find an increasing need to speak to individuals and groups. First impressions of an Individual are often based upon his speech, whether it be at a job interview or a social gathering. Children learn to speak by imitating sounds. They tend to speak with the same accents and errors as adults with whom they spend time. They also will imitate correct speech. This means adults should not use baby talk. Naturally, the child will have difficulty with pronunciation but he should have a correct standard to follow as his ability develops. There are usually many sounds which children entering school cannot reproduce. School programs should supply experiences which help to improve speech. Well designed programs will be flexible in encouraging good speech but will not penalize slow progress. It is important that neither parents nor teachers insist upon perfection. This would be frustrating to children who are unable to produce certain sounds. Speech improvement during the beginning years of school should be a part of the regular classroom program. Students need many opportunities to speak and listen. They usually are not self conscious in front of a group. The aim should be to maintain this freedom. As students progress through school, experiences should be designed to maintain and improve their speaking confidence and ability. Choral speaking is an activity in which a group of students recite a poem or story together as in a singing chorus. Other activities which promote good speech are ofal reading, reporting, debating, etc. Why do some students show fear of speaking ip front of groups as in class discussions? There are many reaons all of which are usually connected with a lack of confidence. This might result from continuous pressure, correction, and criticism of an individual's speech. Speech Uferapy as opposed to speech improvement (normal growth) is the treatment of a problem. It takes the form of individual or small group instruction by a therapist. It should be started early but not before the child has the ability to correctly produce the sounds. . Speech is a complicated

process involving many psychological and educational factors. Advice of a trained expert should be sought in handling problems. The normal development of speech depends upon good experiences and guidance.

Over 10 Per Cent Os Children Smoke
FOQT WAYNE, Ind. (UPD— More than 1 out of 10 children in the sixth through ninth grades of Fort Wayne public schools smoke, and 1 out of 3 tried cigarettes but gave them up. A survey of smoking habits of 8,833 children in the 11-15 age group by the American Cancer Society showed that 13.5 per cent of the boys smoke and 7.5 per cent of the girls for a total of 10.6 per cent of all pupils who answered a questionnaire. The study showed that 35.8 pfer cent of the pupils “tried cigarettes but do not smoke now.” These included 43.8 per cent of the boys and 27.2 per cent of the girls. More than half of those who stopped smoking said they quit for health reasons. More than one-fourth quit for moral reasons, and the others stopped because smoking was too expensive or because they participated in athletics where smoking is prohibited. The results of the questionnaire distributed last year among approximately 9,600 pupils in 47 schools in the Fort Wayne system were the first in a four-year program sponsored by the Allen County unit of the cancer organization which is campaigning against smoking as a health problem. The report came only a few days after a government report showing cigarettes contribute to lung cancer and other ailments that may take years off a smoker’s life.

Ai was expected, the number of smokers increased with the age of the pupil. Twenty per cent of the ninth-grade boys and 12 per cent of the ninthgrade girls smoke, for a total of 16.1 per cent. Among eighth-graders, 12.8 per cent smoke. The percentages were 8.5 per cent of the seventh-graders and 5.9 per cent of the sixth-graders. The children who answered the questionnaire said 74,7 per cent have at least one smoker among their parents. Thirty-five per cent of the pupils said both their parents smoke. About 30 per cent said their fathers smoke and their mothers don’t. About nine per cent said their mothers smoke and their fathers don’t. Tlie questionnaires yielded some crisp comments on why the children either smoke, don’t smoke, or quit smoking. “I don’t smoke because it killed my grandfather,” one said. “My crowd all smoked. Now I’ve changed crowds.” “I only smoke in a convertible,” one girl said. “I haven’t smoked since I was 7 years old.” “I smoked occasionally when I was little,” a 12-year-old girl said. “My girl doesn’t like smoke.” “Cigarettes stink.” “My money is too hardearned to spend on them.” “I quit because the girls were always bumming them off me.” “I don’t smoke because I don’t want to get kicked off the team.” “Smoking makes you lazy.” “The only time I smoke is when I light my mother’s cigarettes.” “It’s like signing your own death warrant 30 years ahead of time.” “I think any kid who smokes is a' bit on the nutty side.” “It’s just like burning up money.” “They didn’t agree with my stomach.” “They are tough on your wind.” • ’ “My parents would clobber me.” “I can’t afford bad health.” “My mother made me stop. Now she buys me a new record every week.” « “I’m not a damn fool. I still smoke.”
