President Of Association
For Retarded Is Speaker
Speaking here recently, the
head of the N. C. Association
for Retarded Children called
the community "the firing line"
in the fight because about 85
per cent of retarded children
remain In their communities
and their needs must be met
there.
Charles Waddell, of Ashevllle,
also said it is the goal of the
state organization to have a
chapter operating in every
county. He was highly compli
mentary of the work being ac
complished by the local organi
zation.
Education Stressed
Introduced by Miss Esther
Seay, the speaker emphasized
that education is important in
furthering the alms of the as- |
sociation. In the first place,
those Interested in helping the
retarded must educate them
selves and then get other peo
ple and agencies interested in
helping out. Money, of course,
is a big need. But, Mr. Waddell !
said it seems to come more I
easily for work with the re
I
tarded. Of the funds raised by
local chapters. 50 per cent stays
I with the chapter, 35 per cent
goes to the state, and 15 per
cent to the national organiza
tion for advanced research.
He urged local members to go
| out and find children that need
i help, "and then do something
for them".
Mr. Waddell cited five points
the executive committee of the
state is stressing this year: (1)
I to become a state member of
the national organization, (2)
to further educate the public
to the needs of the organiza
tion, (3) to have a local wait
In each county, (4) to work
closer with state schools and
with job placement programs,
(5) to help in getting a sdrvey
of educa table children.
Routine Btuiness
Held January 12 In the high
school library, the chapter
meeting also was featured by
routine business. Mrs. Furman
Angel reported 50 family mem
berships, with $75 for the state
organization. Of this amount

work with the retarded.
The secretary, Mrs. Marlon
Bryson, reported receiving $20.32
from the otto P.-T. A. and she
said letters of appreciation had
been mailed not only to Otto
but to Cullasaja P.-T. A. for its
recent contribution.
A letter of appreciation for
her work has been sent to Mrs.
George Byrd, who resigned re
cently as vloe-president.

publish a monthly bulletin to
keep the public informed of
the work under way in the

Confucius (551-478 B.C.) said:
"SUCCESS DEPENDS ON
PREVIOUS PREPARATION '
To some, success means much money or
outstanding accomplishment. To others
achieving contentment is sufficient.
One thing is certain. It is difficult to
enjoy any success without a healthy body.
Just as you study to prepare your mind for
success, you can also prepare your body. The
first step is to visit your physician for a
health check-up. Then, place the future
health of your body in his care. Follow his
suggestions for diet or weight control. Take
the sustaining or corrective medicines he
may prescribe. You can prepare now for
future better health.
