to supplement for those
necessities.

how to organize their work in the
right way, they will save
themselves time and effort. In
almost any skill, the right way is
the direct way, the simple way.

time and get practically nowhere.
Staying in school helps to keep
talive and
develop character and personality.
Personality can be developed
in school by thoughtful guidance
and direction. Good work habits
and the right kind of personality
blend well and are considered
basic steps for success.
The danger to which they art
all continually exposed is the inclination
to let down, to let things
take their course. If they ever
become satisfied with what they
are now doing, they lose confidence
ancf trust and they no
longer look for new and better

Automation and other factors
have brought about conditions
which make specific training im
perative. At this time of year
particularly, it is well to
remember that returning to
school is important. Enthusiasm
on the part of the parents, as well
as teachers, creates enthusiasm
on the part of students before
and after returning to school. Enthusiasm
from all points makes
them stay in school.

Take out a subscription or

Make a conscious effort to
become more informed on
world affairs - especially
foreign policy concerns related
to Africa and the Caribbean.
Finally, give Jesse Helms
and Ronald Reagan a muchneeded

November.
To be sure, even if the above
Agtnttki for Agtrotf
to the kttfitv there is no
guarantee that all the problems
we encounter in the
racist, sexist, militaristic
America of '1984 will be
alleviated.
However, what it does offer
is a beginning for some and a
reinforcement for others as the
struggle for political and
economic equity continues.
For my part, I will actively
seek out the repressive-minded
folk in my new abode ? Up
South - and attempt to implement
the agenda here.
May God - Allah ? bless
you and keep you all! Thank
you for the honor and
privilege of being a part of
your life, your community.
