Price answers: e are inclined r-simplificatiop d try to poinij ■ difficulty 'as >ur high school Usually the e in nature and exist in a cluster. “When we get a high schooler i 5 with reading difficulty, first we ] i find out something about his intellectual capacity by adminis tering an intelligence test, select ing a test which doesn’t require - reading. Otherwise, his reading ability would be measured rather than his intelligence. “Secondly, we learn about the . yoytfils physical condition be cause there are certain difficul ties which may cause an indi vidual to have difficulties in l fading. J “Thirdly, we investigate per sonal and social adjustments of the youngster. “Last, but not least, we would ■ seek out the specific reading difficulty the individual may have.” A common difficulty, continues 1 Professor Price, is a lack of basic skills. Specifically, some of these are word attack skills involving phonics, the' ability to divide words into syllables and judging what a Iword is from the con text in which it appears. People lacking these skills are called approximate readers, says Price. They don’t catch the • exact pronunciation or the exact meaning from what they read. , They frequently read ,‘home” for “house” or “a” for “an.” There - fore, their comprehension is also approximate. The ASTC reading expert says another common difficulty is that the individual doesn’t prac tice enough using skills he al ready possesses. Reading skill, among other things, develops by practice. Golf players do not attain pro ficiency by sitting in the shade discussing the game but byjgiiv ftually playing. Reading skills shouldn’t be left to chance for development.* They should be taught in a well plan ned and systematic manner. . , K Reading in high school calls i into use new Skills as wettMwl more involved application of (he old ones. For example, in sci ence Afferent skills would be used from those used in read-j ing a .'j>iece of fictional mate rial. Other reading skills would be usdd in math. Majer obstacles to reading practice/are the continuous bids for student’s interests and, time which take, him away from reading says Price. These in-J elude television, radio, social ac tivitiesyand an environment not conducive to reading. The en vironment may be either the home or the school. Reading problems on the aca demic -level will never be com pletely eliminated, Price laments, but rrujpy of them could be pre vented-by observing his points, and mgjfing the proper remedy. A great need at the present time is, a well planned reading program which continues from elemeq&ry grades through high school,-Price points out. Some, settool Systems partly meet the problem by making reading .ah integral part of secondary school T , ” It that on. the G6od Reading for the Whole Family jSas •Family Features rB, fin* JBpwoy St., Boiton IS, Mo» Saijfcyour nowipopor for th* HAW Itm lii Endond find my chock or mnM**. 1 y*or*2o □ , !XL/°^ .£t junior high level more than 70 percent of the information stu dents acquire comes through reading. If such a necessary skill, reading should receive an increasing amount of attention on all levels of education. Price concludes that he agrees with the statement made by Carlyle: . ‘ “If we think of it, all that a university or final high school j .can do for us is still but what the first school began—teach us to read.” Tar Heels Urged To Stop Crotalaria North Carolina stands to be hurt in the grain markets unless the problem of crotalaria con tamination can be licked. That’s the opinion of Ernest Stallings, Extension grain mar keting specialist at N. C. State College. “Neither export agen cies nor domestic mills intend to buy grain contaminated with crotalaria,” warns Stallings. “Buyers will refuse North Caro lina .grain or discount it heavily, unless they’re sure it’s clean.” Crotalaria seed is poisonous to livestock and poultry. Even small amounts, mixed in with corn or soybeans or grain sorg hum, will retard greatly the growth of animals. “All lots of grain sold in North Carolina or shipped across the state line are subject to inspec tion and condemnation if cro- I talaria is found,” says Stallings. I This means, he says, that the producer must not contaminate his soybeans, corn or sorghum with crotalaria, and the local buyers must not ship such] grain. “Any shipment that shows one, or more crotalaria seed' per| pound may be condemned by | the Pure Food and Drug- in- 1 spectors,” says Stallings. “Then! a complicated and expensive le gal process starts. After the legal hurdles are cleared, the grain must be cleaned, re-in spected and cleared before it can move into interstate and export trade.” An “ounce of prevention” is certainly “worth a pound of cure” where crotalaria contami nation is concerned, says Stall ings.

State Ranks 44th In Current Expenditure 1 For School Children! i North Carolina ranks 44th j J among the 50 states in current | expenditure for public education per pupil in average daily at tendance, according to recent es timates of the National educa tion Association. With an estimated expenditure of $230 per pupil, this State spent $139 less than the national average of $369. Only six states —Kentucky. Tennessee, Missis sippi, South Carolina, Alabama, and Arkansis—according to NEA estimates of such expense for j the 1959-60 school year, spent j less than did North Carolina in] . operating their public schools. New York’s expenditure ofl $559 per pupil in ADA was high-1 :est, followed by Alaska with] S3O, New Jersey with $497, Cali-' fornia, with $471.39, and Dela ware with $460. Arkansas had the lowest expenditure, $191.00 per pupil in ADA. “Our country!

Lesson Text: John 6. Our lesson today is written to help adults realize that the sal-! ■< ation provided in Jesus Christ can meet the deepest needs and hungers both of individuals and society, alike. The story we are reading in the Bible today is a recounting of another of John’s signs. It is not told for its miraculous ele ment, but for its sign value— what it means about Jesus. John, here, represents . Jesus as One who brings us inner peace, even amid storm. Jesus comes to us t lovingly in our darkest hours, amid the pain and confusion of human woe, and all is peace and light.

Therefore, undeniably, Jesus is the Bread of life, the Cue who satisfies our many and varied human hungers, and the One who nourishes our inner lives. “I am the Bread of Life,” Jesus said. “He Who comes to me shall not hunger.”—John 6:35). Time was when all of the many wonders and advantages of this modern age we live in (and which we take so much for I granted these days, somewhat | thoughtlessly) were unknown. 1 Then came a dim awareness of | the potentialities of man har nessing the mysterious powers of the Universe; and the slow but steady evolution of man’s knowl edge to the point we have reached today. And yet, with all the benefits of this immeasur able evolution at our fingertips, are we happier as we go through life? Have we a sense of se curity?
