Mrs. Koontz Presents Practical Course To Different Education DURHAM-The new course to economic independence, through a different approach to education by Mrs. Elizabeth Duncan Koontz, head of the Wo men’s Division, U.

She, in a passive but firm way, attack ed the educational system by saying that on one teacher had all the answers, on one princi pal had so much sense that he did not have the advise of his teachers and no one superin tendent had the ability to plan a program for a system that weioßi meet the needs of every mi' concerned.

She was mindful of the fact that there are too many child ren In one class and that it takes most of the teacher’s time giving tests and grading papers and therefore the teach er is not able to really find the "handle” that it takes to motivate the child to the ex tent it could grasp the "jum bled" courses now being of fered. She raid that 20,000 new words had been added In the past few years and 20,000 more would be added as the result of the lunar landing and that many of the teachers would not learn the added words and certainly they would not be able to impart them to the She made a direct attack on the kind of education that had been made available to Negroes children. and charged that tms system had done more to impoverish Negroes than anything else. It was the result of some of the points made against the practiced system that cause the mechanic to say she made him feel that lie was some - body. The Federal government, ac cording to her, proposes to set up training centers where on tlie-job-training will be just that. She pointed to the fact that many high school students have shied away from home eco nomics that related jobs to that subjects paid good salaries to those who had prepared them selves to properly man them. He spoke of the dearth of male nurses, persons versed in child care, qualified waiters and even caterers. She pointed out that some auto mechanics make as much as $8.50 per hour, while two members of a cater big crew drew down $75 for serv ing a party of two, just two hours. Still using the finesse of a classroom she offered a solu tion and felt that the experience that she received as a teacher of retarded children was in her favor in making the plan work. She outlined a program that would set up child care centers where children would be taken as he mothers took training widen would enable them to become more gain fully employed and more suit ed to be mothers. She told the audience that the government was furnishing money to set up training centers in prac tically every field of endeav or that would raise the eco nomic level of pe sons who had not had the oppo: (unity to get the kind of training that brought better wages. She paid a statement about black power in which he felt that it was not criteria for a bility and no sign of it giving the Negro the economic sta bility he was so sadly in need of. “Green power is the meas ure of our economy and wheth er you are black or white you are going to be subservient until you make some money,” she said. Mrs. Koontz had a word for those who say the Negro is the recipient of all the welfare money. She told the audience that what money trickles down to the poor and indigent is not a drop in the bucket to what is being paid for social securi ty, veterans benefits and pre paration for war She also about those who would criticize unwed mothers. She asked the audience who would have a baby for onh $39.00, She also had a word for those who would punish, women who have babies out of wedlock. Her reply to this was that there was a ttrne when a woman's standing on the plantation or on the homestead was determined by whether she had a bain, sired by a man she had not gone to the altar with.

GLORIA RIGGS BEE ffwwaiTOij«iiwMnw>ig»awi i—iiinugwnrywMfuMH Dear Mrs. Rlggsbee: Would you tell me something please? How safe is the woman if the man just uses protection? Mrs. P. K. Dear Mrs. P. K.: When you say "Protection," I assume you are referring to the condom, This is actually a. fairly effective method of oirth control when used alone. How ever, it becomes even more re liable if the woman uses a con traceptive cream, jelly or foam to guard against "accid ents." All of these items may be purchased in a drugstore without a prescription. Does that answer your question? * * * Dear Gloria: I’m reading so much and hearing so many stories about the birth control pills. Tell me please if the pills can make you sterile or have deformed babies or if you can get Im mune to them after you have taken them for a few years. Mrs. L. P. Dear Mrs. L, P.; The answer to all three of your questions is NO, NO, NO! Look at it like this--if the pills could cause any serious dif ficulties, like the ones you men tioned, the government Food Administration would never al low them to be sold. No medi cation 'is approved for sale until it is proved safe. The birth control pills have been tested for many years- - some women have been taking them for 12-15 years without any problems at all.

He said that one of his classmates had told him the story. I did my best to straighten him out and tell him the story his friend had told him wasn’t true, but 1’ m not sure he really understood what I was saying. My aunt has a cat which will have a litter of kitten in about two weeks. Do you think it would be a good idea to let my son watch the cat have her kittens so he will know for sure how babies are born? Mrs. R. A. Dear Mrs, R. A.: I think it would be a wonder ful idea to let your son watch. Make sure you are there with him to explain each step in the process—why the mother cat licks each kitten clean, bites off the cord, what the after birth is for, and all the rest. As j’ou go along, you can ex plain to him how the same pro cess takes place in human birth. Try to give the Idea that this is a wonderful and joyful event. a healthy sex education always teaches that sex is a good part of life. It is not dirty or shame ful. Let your son know that you are always happy to answer all his questions about sex, and try never to act embarrassed when he asks them. dealing with State protective legislation. As amended, the Guidelines provide that state legislation which restricts the occupations women they hold, the hours they may work, and the weights they may lift, do not. justify limiting work opportuni ties for women.
