f SCHOOL AND YOUR CHILD
By John Coroy. Appalachian State Teach.r* Collage
L
"CAN YOU RAISE
YOUR CHILD'S IQ?"
“You Can Raise Your Child’s'
1.Q.”
That’s the word in a current
PAGEANT MAGAZINE article.
And, says PAGEANT, it’s par
ents’ duty to try to raise their
youngster's more because IQ is
the open sesame to success.
The feature recommends that
this can be done by reading at
home, library visits and family
discussions. It even suggests a
six-month drill regimen that’s
supposed to boost a rating 15-20
points.
EDUCATION, U:S.A„ a Wash
ington publication, editoralizes
that this type of information is
“Guaranteed to give you shud
ders.
“Granted, IQ tests are not per
fect, and sometimes they carry
too much weight, but it doesn’t
help matters to scare parents.”
Further, states EDUCATION,
U.S.A., “Certainly, one should
stimulate a child’s mental,
growth, but not for the narrow j
motive of IQ-hiking. Encourag-I
ing parents’ hyperpretensions J
this way can induce child hyper
tension.”
What do education profession
als, men who know and work at
their trade, say al>out raising I
IQ?
“For children from typical!
homes there is little chance that j
IQ can be increased", reports j
Dr. Robert F. Topp, dean of
Northern Illinois University's!
college of education at DeKalb. j
“About all a parent can do to j
make sure that his child has
full benefit of his native capaci
ties is to provide him with the
best care physically, create a
home atmosphere rich in learn
ing opportunities and give him
lots of love and discipline.”
Needless to say, parents who
project their own ambitions on
their children and pressure them
too much are more likely to
harm than to help.”
Dr. Topp explains that prob- j
ably the maximum IQ one can|
attain is set by his inheritance, |
while environment —all those so
cial, intellectual, emotional and
physical conditions that surround
a person—determines the extent
to which the person attains this j
maximum limit.
“It is fairly certain that no
one ever actually reaches his
highest intellectual development,
simply because it is quite im
possible to create the perfect
environment for each individ
ual.”
Occasionally changes takei
place in a child’s IQ or seem to
take place. Dr. Topp admits.
Once in a while a test is poorly
administered or the child does
not or cannot apply himself to
the test experiences and subse
quent testings may produce
higher or lower IQ’s.
Frequently when a child is
taken from an orphanage or a',
substandard home and placed in
a home rich in cultural,-physi
cal and emotional resources, his
intelligence quotient rises. A
change from a low standard
school to one of quality can
| shoot it up.
Sometimes when a physical
I problem such as defective hear
* ing or vision, malnutrition or
diabetes is discovered and cor
rected the IQ as measured by
tests wilt become higher, says
Dr. Topp.
It is not unusual for a child)
or adult suffering from an emo-|
tional ailment not to function
with full efficiency intellectually
and such individuals -may score
lower on intelligence tests than)

I they should.
When the problem is corrected
their IQ’s will seem to increase.
If a child comes from a foreign
country, particularly if the mo
ther tongue is spoken in the
home, his scores on group in
telligence tests may be detrimen
tally affected.
Intelligence test scores made’
on infant intelligence scales i
have little predictive value for)
later intellectual status, Topp
adds. After the age of two, in-j
telligence test scores have some-|
what more predictive value but:
not until the later elementary |
school ages can the IQ score j
obtained be a true measure of
this phase of intelligence or that
it will remain relatively con
stant.
In other words, not until la
ter elementary years will an IQ
obtained on a child remain ap
proximately the same as an IQ
obtained at 18 years of age.

eradication of TB as soon as pos
sible. The first step towards
achieving this goal, TB control
workers agreed, is to find and
give adequate treatment to all
active cases of the disease. A
mammoth task! There are an
estimated 100.000 active cases
which are at present unknown
to health authorities.
Here's a sample of what’s
been done so far:
, Kansas —People registered at
the health department as
having inactive TB are be
ing re-examined to find out
if they have developed ac
tive disease.
Kentucky—A mobile clinic has
been established in an area
covering 30 counties where
TB case rates are high, and
extra outpatient clinics will j
be opened to give more ade-:

Another Cancer
Clinic January 6
The Northeastern Cancer Clin
ic will be held on Friday after
noon, January 6, with registra
tio nbeginning at 1 o’clock. A
chest X-ray will be given to
anyone wishing it along with
the examination of the five areas
of the body where cancer is
most easily found and cured.
There are no limitations as to
sex, race, physical or economic
l status at the center; however,
women should be 35 or more;
men should be 40 or over unless
referred by a doctor, or unless
one of the “Seven Danger Sig
nals” or “symptoms” are pres
ent.
Only 30 people can be seen
at the Center each month due to
limited facilities, so it is suggest
ed that anyone who wishes to
be assured of an appointment
should write the Cancer Center,
Health Department, Elizabeth
City, N. C., for a priority. Ex
aminees are asked to bring a
robe or housecoat with them. 1

Sunday School Lesson
* THAT YOU MAY BELIEVE
, International Sunday School
I Lesson for January 1, 1961.
j Memory Selection; “These are
» written that you may believe
* that Jesus is the Christ, the Son
of God, and that believing you
may have life in his name.”
I (John 20:31).
Lesson Text: John 1; 20:30-31
* Today’s lesson is the first in,
! a nine-session unit on “The Sig-1
1 nificance of the Work of Christ.”
L This unit purports to show the
significance of Christ’s work as
! related to the Fourth Gospel,
, and to help adults make a prac-
I tical application of Jesus’ teach-1
j ings as they go about the daily
business of life.
As we peruse the deceptively
simple words of John’s testi
, mony, we realize that the open-
I ing verses form a prologue that
introduces the great central
theme of the Gospel—Jesus is
. the giver of life. Through him
* men are enlightened, and enter
into a fellowship with God.
Scattered throughout are such
| key words as “light,” “life,”
“truth,” and “glory.” These are
favorite words of the author,

and they appear again and again
in later passages.
After describing the divine na
ture of the Word, the author
records its entry into the ex
perience of men. He recognizes
its rejection by some of its ac
ceptance by others. Then comes
the climax, in the assertion that
Jesus Christ is the Word of God.
This is the doctrine of the In
carnation.
This prologue of John’s con
tains many solid and glorious
. ideas, and as we begin to delve
; further into its meaning, we
cannot help but feel that John
must indeed have had a great
purpose.
John, indeed, was part of
God’s plan. He was coiyimission
-1 ed by God, but his commission
I was limited to testimony. His
’ work was to identify Jesus and
to tell men who he was. He
himself was not the bringer of
light or the giver of life. John’s
mission was to be the witness
through whom God attested the
; divine sonship of Jesus.
The main purpose of John’s
Gospel is as well suited to our
needs and interests today as it
was to the persons who lived
and read it when it was first
written. “These are written that
