T' A ■ I fr tTt’ fIM fl -0* ... uj fl - ■ | .. j ■ - PRESIDENTIAL PET PLATFORMS — Pictured above are Milford Elementary school teacher Mrs. Susie Yeager and her second grade class, with their candidates for Presidential Pet. Mrs. Yeager’s second graders came up with four animals they thought would make good pets for the President of the United States. They developed platforms for each animal, giving their qualifications. These second graders will take their campaigns to the other second grade classes, and all three classes will vote on which one would be the best pet for the White House. The candidates chosen are the Cat, because it can sit on the President's lap, and can go outside; the Hamster, because it is quiet, you can take it anywhere, and it doesn’t cost much; the Silver Fox, because it can eat the mice in the White House, guard the President, and it is rich and grand looking; and the Fish, it won’t make a mess, the food doesn’t cost much, and it is beautiful. Which one would you vote for? (Photo by Brenda Rhodes)
Adults are grown up children
By. J. W. ANDERSON Guest. Writer Persons may grow up physically and intellectually, but emotionally they remain pretty much children. As one grows older, one’s desire for recognition, appreciation, sympathy, and love does not seem to decrease appreciably. This may not be bad, but it is worth remembering. The person who has had some success in understanding children has made progress in understanding adults. Large numbers of people of all ages are self-centered. Blue Beard 'married and murdered many women. When he was arrested. several women were anxiously waiting to marry him. Some men have great difficulty winning one woman, and there was a man who attracted women by the score. When asked about the secret of his success. Blue Beard Replied, "I talk about them.’’ Some men are unsuc-
Amy Clouse is the daughter of Tony and Connie Clouse of Syracuse. She is a member of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, president of National Honor Society, a Student Council member and member of the Art Club. Amy is a member of the cross country and track teams. Amy will major in medical science at either Indiana University or Purdue next year. Shelly Cripe is the 17-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Robert Emmert of North Webster and Mr. and Mrs. Phil Cripe of Warsaw. She was a cheerleader for three years and enjoys snow skiing, swimming, and outdoor ac-
cessful with women because they talk too much about themselves. Jealousy does not seem to diminish with age or with education. It merely takes different forms. Even when success seemed uncertain, Washington complained that he could not make even an insignificant move with out his officers wrangling about rank. As a child it never occurred to me that doctors and musicians would be jealous. I assumed that maturity and education would eliminate this human frailty. I eventually learned that even great scientists and great musicians are at times jealous of each other. In a great university with a highly intellectual facility, one might imagine that the professors would be so pre-occupied with great issues and problems that jealousy would be crowded out of their lives. When the faculty is lined up for a procession, the professors are carefully sorted
tivities. Shelly plans to attend I. U. and major in secondary education. Lisa Hunter is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Charles Hunter of Leesburg. She is a member of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes, the PRIDE Committee, the Student Council, and the Varsity Singers. She plans to attend Taylor University, Donna Rich is the daughter of Don Rich of Leesburg and Vickie Rich of North Webster. She was a cheerleader for three years. Her hobbies include water sports, music, and being with friends. She plans to attend 1.U..
out according to rank. Pity the poor marshal who does not give a professor the rank that the professor thinks he deserves. The person who becomes an intellectual and a university professor does not cease to be jealous, he merely becomes jealous about other things. He is no longer jealous of another person because he has better clothes, a better car, or a better house. He is not even jealous of a person who wins the lottery. He has graduated from those forms of jealousy. He is now jealous because a colleague outranks him in the line of march or because he is more highly thought of by scholars or because he is more popular with the students. In another class with a new teacher, a former student of mine, in the simplicity and frankness of youth, dedicated his term paper to me and stated that I was the finest teacher he ever had. To say that he did not endear himself to his new teacher would be the understatement of the year. Another childish characteristic that manifests itself in adults is that they are perfectly satisfied with what they have received until they suspect that someone else has received a better deal. The child who wants to use the swing merely because another child is using it has its counterpart in people of all ages including the very elderly. Milford Cub Scouts to hold den meeting The Milford Cub Scouts will hold a den meeting after school on Thursday in the Milford Community Building. Boys who have signed up for the program and boys who want to join are urged to attend. Additional parents are needed to help with the program. Dens need to be formed and the committee needs to know how many boys are going to participate. The meeting on Thursday will end at 4:30 p.m. and parents should pick their youngsters up at that time. Heat the milk for better custard pies When making custard pies, always heat the milk before putting them in the oven. They will always be light and fluffy.
