Constitution topic for Wednesday Club

Vernon Zurcher, social studies teacher with the Wawasee Community School Corporation, explained and discussed why the United States Constitution is considered to be one of the greatest documents of the world at the November 11 meeting of the Wednesday Afternoon Club. The club members met in the parlor of St. Andrew’s United Methodist Church, Syracuse. Zurcher was introduced by Mary Lib Fosbrink, program committee member. He has taught American history and government, including teaching on the Constitution, for the past 29 years. The topic of his discussion was at the request of the club members. In his program, Zurcher, stated the first attempt for a government unit was made in the Articles of Confederation in 1781 and within a few years it was obvious it was not working with the states over ruling the nation. George Washington, John Jay, Alexander Hamilton and James Madison proposed a convention of delegates from all the states meet to revise the Articles of Confederation. The convention formally opened in Philadelphia on May 25, 1787, with George Washington presiding. Delegates from all states, except Rhode Island, attended for a total of 55 delegates. However, only 29 signed the constitution. Zurcher explained the work was not easy and at times the Mobile Meals drivers Volunteer drivers for Syracuse Mobile Meals have been scheduled for the week of November 30-December 4.

convention was nearly wrecked by the struggle between large and small states, of radical and conservative delegates. James Madison, often referred to as “Father of the Constitution,” put together a series of compromises acceptable to the majority of the delegates.

of the courts to interpret the Constitution with the changing times, Zurcher commented it is a much better document today than it was 200 years ago. TJie few words put down identified momentous rules and principles on a wide range of matters that influence the lives of all Americans. Zurcher gave a quote by Supreme Court Justice Thurgood Marshall who said “The true miracle was not the birth of the

criteria for admittance to the hospital is simple: the children must be judged by a psychiatrist to be a danger to themselves or others. The speakers stated the staff is well-trained in varied fields. It includes psychiatrist, pediatricians, registered nurses, mental health workers, art, music, activity therapists, and many others. Thus, the health care is comprehensive. Family treatment is emphasized, and there is always an after-care program when the patient returns home. There is a school at the hospital, staffed by qualified master’slevel teachers. Wallman pointed out that mental illness has always been a frightening concept for people. It still is, but the public is now better informed. Some mental illnesses are like diabetes, they can never be cured, but they can be controlled. Intensive therapy can help most people to function better. Charter Beacon does have a substance abuse directed by psychiatrists and staffed by certified drug/alcohol abuse counselors. Wallman stressed that treatment for teens is very different than for adults. Adults usually choose to get help because they may loose a job or a family. Teens are usually admitted by parents and generally there is an underlying problem even before the abuse. Wallman noted those original problems are addressed by a comprehensive facility like Charter Beacon. He stated they do refer about two-thirds of their cases to out-patient sources and do not take children unless inpatient is definitely required. Finally, Wallman made an important point about depression. He said that adults exhibit very different symptoms of depression. They may become weepy, or down and mopey, and sleep a lot or a little. But children act out, may become violent, do drugs/alcohol, and generally exhibit much more overt behavior. Bpth responses are to the same problem: depression.

Constitution, but its life, a life nurtured through two turbulent centuries of our own making. ” Hostesses for the afternoon were Margaret Freeman and Mrs. Fosbrink who served seasonal refreshments to the 15 members present. Arlene Sloan presided over the business meeting and committee reports. The next meeting will be a Christmas Party on December 9, in the home of Mary Bushong.

A parent asked Wallman if he thought there are more problems with kids today in which he agreed. He stated this is true partly because society hasn’t been addressing children’s problems like they are now, and also society is becoming more disturbed, so children are 100.

Protestant Germany emphasiz ed the Christkind or Christ Child as the real gift-bringer.
