Tender Loving Care
Do you know a lonely, withdrawn person who “tunes
out” society, friends, o: people in general? Or, one who
seems to have a deep need to simply love but apparently
not the means by which to ex-
press such an emotion? jM+Ji Rlifl |||| I
If you do, a recent study per
formed at Ohio State by Dr. ''[ijlfe—
Samuel Corson may offer a solu- ||| /Jm i
tion. In what he terms, “pet-fa- j| g| !
ciiitated psychotherapy,” Dr. 1 Jill ml liwC^w.iillnnililii
Corson is reported to have “introduced” dogs to patients
who had failed to respond to any previous psychiatric
treatment. ,
The result proved again that the dog is man s best
friend. All patients in this study improved and began to
communicate more openly with other people .... Who
knows, in the future we may begin filling prescriptions
from your doctor which read: “One Pooch. Take with
TLC!”
We try to give you the best Prescription
Service at the Lowest Possible Price.
Always Feel Free to Call Us.

What are you going to do
with your money?
Although there are many investments you could make
- stocks, bonds, real estate times are a bit uncertain. So a
7 1/4% Certificate of Deposit from Northwestern looks espe
cially good. Only $3,000 minimum deposit, four year maturity.
Northwestern has other investment programs, too. And our
savjngs rates are the highest in history— the highest allowed
by tew. Save your money at Northwestern.
Federal law and regulation prohibit payment of a time
deposit prior to maturity unless three months of the interest
thereon is forfeited and interest on the amount withdrawn is
reduced to the passbook rate.

Stebbins
To Speak
On P.E.T.
On Wednesday, October
23, at 7:30 p.m., Mr. James
Stebbins of Asheville will
present an introduction to
Parent Effectiveness Training
(P.E.T.) in the meeting room
of the Spruce Pine Library.
This will be an opportunity for
area people to see if they
would like to enroll in a course
in P.E.T& to be offered with
the cooperation cf Mayland
Technical Institute.
P.E.T. teaches adults how
to be better parents. Most
parents wish they could do a
better job raising their child
ren. They wish there was a
way to better deal with the
tensions and conflicts which
come up in a family.
Oftentimes in parent-child
confrontations no one wins.
Both feel bad afterwards.
Mr. Stebbins is an experi
enced Parent Effectiveness
Training teacher and will
show a film and answer
questions concerning P.E.T.
at the meeting October 23.

register youngsters who ere
socially maladjusted, if they
have been declared disturbed
or delinquent by a judge and
are not going to school.
In all cases, confidentiality
is the keynote. Parents need
not fear that their child or
children will be stigmatized or
will have any “labels” at
tached to their handicapped
child. All information on the
special forms which must be
filled out will be kept in the
office of the Board of
Education and all information
passed on to the state refers
to the child only by numbers
which reflect the child’s
disability.
Registration will take
place at local schools begining
October 21. In addition, a
form is included elsewhere in
this edition of the Journal
which a parent or other
person may fill out and send
dire'.tly to the office of the
Superintendent of Schools,
Drawer 218, Burnsville, N.C.
The local number to call for
information regarding this
program is 682-6101. In
addition, there is an informa
tion “hotline” which ha' a
toll-free number 1-800-662-
7950. All data collected will be
analyzed during November
and a report will be submitted
to the next General Assembly v
in January.
“It is important for the
parents of children with
special needs to realize that
the Equal Educational Oppor
tunities Act means that now
school doors will be opening
for their children,” stated
Miss Kunzweiler. The Con
stitution of North Carolina
mandates that their children
mr
be treated equally, she added
and it is only fair that these
parents have their share of
the tax dollar spent for
education and services for
their children. The “Count
The Children” Drive in
Yancey County is for any child
or youth, 0-21 years of age,
who is not in school because
of a special need which has
not yet been met.
