- THE INDEPEN OKNT-NEWB — MARCH 14, 1974

THE CHANGING SCENE IS SUBJECT \T CLI B Change was tne common denominator expressed by the four member panel which talked on “What Is The World Coming To?" at t|ie Woman's C mhiumty Club meeting Friday. March 1. Mrs. Robert Fenstermachei addressing herself to the church and religion sa.d changes in the religious ?cene spill over into other areas affecting practically every aspect of our lives. She said one of these areas was in the medical profession where there was great concern about eth.cal decisions. She told of the beliefs of the fundamentalists, the member's of the Charismatic Movement and the increasing influence on religion by the para psycholog.sts all add new dimensi ns to the interpretation of the fa.th which concerns the th- logiars. In her concluding statement “many churches are programing opportunities for bi idei nderManding <f urselves spiritually and J--.

Teiminology has changed so. that we no longer refer to a child's^ placement in school as Grades 1. 2 or 3. tut to levels in ind.vidual instruction. Environmental changes have been brought about through new or modernized buildings which help to create a mure pleasant atmosphere. Innovations such as air conditioning, carpeting, no bells, audio visual aids anci other things help to make the child want to learn. Curriculum changes provide the relevancy of subject matter 'to the everyday life of the ch.ld. Federal funds provide help for the slow learner and poor achiev. er. pr marily in reading and math. Realizing that every student ioes not go to college, career education is receiving more attention. The organization of the teachers into unions with the right to strke and collective birgain.ng are factors which must be considered in the establishment of

TIPS ON FIREPLACE SAFETY

Popular though the fireplace is--approximately 20 Bullion American homes have them-not all people know how to use them. Fire authorities say that most accidents occur each year simplj' because fireplace users ignore obvious safety rules. Many things people do with a real wood fire are either wasteful or dangerous, such as poking at the fire, breaking up a burning log and building too large a fire. 'These are tne most serious mistakes and thjy also can create a potential danger ■when using a brand new product category--the manufactured firelog. Public concern for ecology has created the firelog industry nearly overnight. Firelog manufacturers say their product will replace natural wood in more than .30 million fires this year. Manufacturers and fire authorities concur that one of the major difficulties consumers experience with manufactured logs is ignoring instructions against using more than one log at a time. Adding a wax/wood log t > an existing fire may n.-ull in a flare-up or an t x(- lively hot fire. Another mistake fireplace l<n users make is poking or bi aking apart the log. '] he luelogs are made of compossed sawdust and wax, a,,d when ti e\ are poked, bits of burrmg wax may Mi k to the fiicplace tools and (hop on the carpet, 1 utung ULU luaj blUut up

budgets and administrative matters. Sam Sh< bert, of Plas Steel Products, Inc., talking on business, said the computer has had a major impact upon his company. It put order into selling and distribution. Il enar led the company to keep an excellent inventory which kept the mmformed as to where they were going and what was going on. It also provided them with a more efficient payroll department. The computer, he said, has an effect on all of our lives with information on credit, health and medicine and police work which is stored in the data bank. He further stated that while the computer has many ad vanages it stores too much information about people wh.ch is the business of no one. He closed his remarks by telling of the good influence the Occupiticn. Safety and Health Act has bright to business. Felicia Swan- ’ii. John Glenn High Sch ol senior, u-ing tne p Ils of the top ten teenage pi oblems taken of the sen.or classes in 1951, 1961, 1971-74 showed hi w the concerns have changed. In the 1951 poll, parents headed the list; in 1961 it wis sex expression; and in 1971-74 anomie. Anomie means concern about the meaning and purpose of one’s life and cf one’s place and purpose .n society; a feeling of meaningless, ness and confusion concerning c-e’s place in the social structures. While not in the order named, s me other problems of the teenagers were the draft, finances, emoLonal control, empathy, school and teachers, peers acceptance, personal appearance, guilt feelings and occupational choice. At the bottom of the list on the latest poll was alcohol and drugs. Miss Swanson represened the youth. Leonard Beaty, moderator, in his final remarks said, “After hear.ng the members of this pan. el. I feel as though I’ve just completed a college crash coume” The panel was introduced by Mrs. Ward Awald. program chairman and Mr. Beaty. Mrs. Leonar 1 Beaty, president, conducted a short business meeting fol! wing the panel presentation. R ill call was answered with a current event.
