I DON’T LIKE SCHOOL
- What— at
may cause
’ school! ' "J
' What can 'parents do when this
occurs
’ What can teachers dot
Have you ever heard someone
say or perhaps said it yourself
after seeing a new school building
! or seeing the way teaching is done
today: “Well no child should want
to stay at home a single day”
And for the most 'part that is
true isn’t itt I do not rechll hear-
’ ing a siiigle child say in recent
years: “I don’t -like school” or "I
don’t want to go to school” -Young
children look forward to
the day at school Of course there
may be a class now and then for
older ones which is iyt especially
enjoyed or an assignment which
seems to involve too much work
But learning can be enjoyable In
fact we know that we learn better
' when we aer interested and happy
High school students do not always
have the same degree of interest
Perhaps the teaching technique is
different or they find some re-
quired subjects less to their liking
perhaps they resist 'the discipline
of studying something because it
is required 4
This is the age when some boys
and girls begin to U lit About quit-
ting school It is not difficult to
tell them that they are-within the
legal' age and must attend that
may make them dislike it even
more It is much better to try to
learn why a student dislikes
school There are many possible
home or elsewhere —
children ‘ to ' dislike

Otht
reasons Frank may not like a
teacher even though she is popu-
lar with most students There may
be a personality clash of the teach-
er has said something to hurt his
feelings If possible this should
be determined and cleared up after
hearing both sides of the story
Perhaps Frank does not like a
required subject and la not doing
well in it Well is he to be a de-
featist tunning away from the
difficult or unwilling to attempt
something if he cannot excel in itt
Is he lasy T Unwilling to make the
qxtra effort to do anything that is
difficult 7 Jf he quits school for
that reason will he be successful
on a job? Schools now have intelli-
gence and aptitude testa so that
teachers know whether' 'a boy or
girl should be able to do the as-
signed work they also know about
individual differences and make al-
lowances for them Parents should
understand this too '
Boys talk’ about quitting school
to go into the army although there
are many illustrations of boys who
did that in the last war and who
later took correspondence courses
or went back to high school to get
that diploma While in the service
they grew up they realised the
value of an education A high
school education is a minimum re-
quirement for so many jobs today
everything should be said and done
to try to keep a child in school
until graduation
Some girls want to get married
before they graduate Some of them
are married almost every high
school now has married students
who have returned to complete the
requirements for graduation
Each" atudeht 'should prepare to
float himself economically He has
had the advantage of public edu-
cation paid by the taxpayers of
the state Both boys and girls
should be able to support them-
selvek throughout the remainder
of their lives and to assume their
share of tax paying Even the girl
who marries may find it necessary
to work Many women worked dur-
ing the last war who never ex-
pected to do so and a large num-
ber of them were hot prepared for
it

WATCH YOUR HAT COAT
- '
The sign over the coat rack read:
‘Wot responsible for lost or stolen
articles” John glanced at it as he
hung up his coat and hat end then
turned to assist Jean his wife in
taking off her fur coat He put it
on a hanger beside his own
The two of them drifted casual-
ly down the corridor into the din'
ing salon and were assigned to a
table by the hostess The lunch
was exceptionally good and both
were hungry The minutes flew by
John glanced at his watch ’’Golly
it’s almost 1 o’clock Better get
going”
But when they got back to the

coat rack Jean’s fur eont was
gone
“I’m sorry sir” said tho man-
ager “but ws art not responaiblo
for lost articles Ws put up tbs
coat rack for the convenience of
our patrons but that sign you sac
makas you responsible for your
own hat And coat I’m awfully sor-
ry but ws just can’t watch every-
body’s possessions”
Siga Not Factor
Tho fact is that in tho easo of
Jean’s fur cost tho restaurant
would not hove boon responsible
for ita loss even if there had boon
no sign One who takoo off a gar-
ment and plaeea it on a coat rack
as one would do In n restaurant re-
tains tho power -of surveillance and
control over It himself Ordlnirily
under ouch circumstances' the op-
erators of the restaurant have no
responsibility toward tho custom-
er’s belongings because they hove
not knowingly received the exclu-
sive possession and dominion over
them T
The cose - would be different
however where the coot hod been
delivered to an employee in a
checkroom In such event-the man-
agement would be responsible 80
also in tbs eases where a custom-
er checks valuables with s bathing
house proprietor or with a hotel
desk clerk or leaves his automobile
with the perking lot attendant to
be parked and stored for hip those
receiving possession of ths custom
Ur’s property have the duty to use
proper care to see that the
customer’s property ia returned

A vote of favor in tha school
amendment which will be submit-
ted to the people April S is A vote
for equal education opportunities
to all Oklahoma children
This time strangely it’s not the
poorer sections of the state ask-
ing a helping hand from their
wealthier neighbors Instead it’s
the centers of our greatest wealth
Oklahoma City and Tulsa whose
schools face the worst prospect of
severe deterioration :-t i :
Our biggest cities and some
othsr districts too ara simply
growing at such a pace they can’t
build and staff schools fast enough
to keep up with rapidly increasing
enrollments Present laws forbid
them the privilege of voting suf-
ficient school taxes to cope with
these swelling enrollments
The record crop of war babies
from a decade ago ia now causing
classrooms to bulge far beyond
their capacity It’s a situation we
can expect to grow progressively
Tv-
worse during the next four years
At the close of World War II
total school enrollment in Okla-
homa was 454789 Last year this
figure had risen to 486141 an in-
crease of 80852 students
By 1960 it’s estimated we’ll
have aq Inrollment of 566000 in
Oklahoma’s public schools That
will be a boost of more than 110000
sinpe (he 1948-48 school year
This still wouldn’t be so bad
providing tha increases were even-
ly distributed But a comparative-
ly few dletricta ere carrying the
big end of the load
Because of greater industrial ex-
pansion thsra hat been a "heavy
influx of new population into our
larger cities This together with
the general heavy gain in children
of school age puts many schools in
a desperate situation
There is just one jray out —
slightly higher local takes for some
districts They must pay a small
penalty for the community’s gen-
eral prosperity in order to provide
school facilities for a fast-growing
population
Most voters in these overcrowd-
ed districts know they must pay
this bigger bill themselves They
are practically begging for the
chance to do so
Every state voter will have the
opportunity April 6 to help these
sorely pressed school districts By
voting yes on- the school amend-
ment you can do unto others as
you want -to be done by if yeur
children were in these overcrowded
schools
The constitutional amendment up
for your consideration provides on
ly that the school districts in most
A Las? Drink — A Lao? Drive
The party's over — Bottoms Upl Let’s 'get going!
For thousands of men and women — children and pedestrians too—
that has been the beginning of the end On the highway at night where the
road curved and the hazy driver drove straight ahead there was another
"Bottoms Up!" and the end of the last drive
Z cult’s hard to convince a person who JbashadTa fevvdrinksthat he
shouldn t drive Alcoholic stimulation engenders a false confidence in his
ability- In reality his reactions have slowed down his perception and judg-
ment lowered — driving alertness gone In a later stage the road blurs lights
blind as he fights drowsiness -loses control
Seldom is he endangering his life alone He is also endangering the
lives of those traveling with him and others on the streets and highways In
35 states 166179 drivers lost their licenses in 1952 for drinking and driving
Thirty-five per cent of all revocations are brought against drinking drivers
If you have been drinking either let someone else drive leave your
car and call a taxi or stay where you are until your senses clear Stay off
the road! '
Don’t kid yourself into a "Bottoms Up” drive — it can he fatal!

desperate circumstances may ask
local voters to approve a slightly
higher tax Voters in each district
then will be able to decide for
themselves whether a slight tax
boost is justified '
- There can be no better guarantee
for keeping this tax to the here
