shown enjoying making things out of clay.
Day Camp Going

Events for today at the camp include skating, swim

OBSERVATIONS
By Elbert Forester
HABITS—B ack home we
were often warned—“Y o u
better quit that before you get
in a habit of it,” etc. Not too
much was said about many
“bad” habits, such as smoking,
‘cause we didn’t, or thought we
didn’t, get caught.
Be that it may. A “habit”
can and is formed mighty
quick.
Frequently in school life the
subject of habits come up. Nor
mally it is with references to
bad habits that students ac
quired and they are cautioned
against acquiring these habits
during their formative years of
life. An editorial appeared re
cently in an engineering maga
zine (Society of Automotive
Engineers Journal, Sept. 1963)
dealing with this subject which
I thought was so excellent that
I am passing it on to you. It
was written by Norman G. Shi
dle and reads as follows:
Habits aren’t necessarily bad.
Without them we’d spend our
lives making inconsequential
decisions. (Which side of my
face shall I shave first? What
time shall I plan to get to
work? Where shall I part my
hair?). . .There’s nothing
wrong with having habits.
We tend to think of habits as
“bad” perhaps, because we fall
into most of them; uncon
sciously form too few. For one
bad habit we actively form,
most of us have 10 we have
fallen into And it’s a rare man
or woman who unconsciously
falls into good habits.
Some people for example,
have formed the habit of con
sideration for others. Few have
fallen into it. Some get the
habit of looking at daily ex
periences as opportunities for
action; others fall into the
habit of viewing with alarm.
Some become habitually inter
ested in other people’s pro
blems; others habitually con
centrate pretty much on their
own. . .Even friends can be
habits—good, bad, or indiffer
ent. The good ones, like other
good habits, usually involve es-
fort in the acquiring; cultiva
tion of their maintenance.
Good habits are usually
formed. Bad habits we fall into.
Yet habits may be the tools
that shape our destinies. Or
traps which balk our ambition
tions. Good, bad, and neutral
they control us physically and
mentally.
Habits are very personal
things; as personal as a tooth
brush. Some lean to stiff
bristle brushes; some to softer
varieties. So with habits. Either
we form them to fit our needs
rather than our desires. . .or
we fall into them and become
their slaves. Well may we ask
ourselves occasionally:
“Have I formed my habits—
or are my habits forming me?”
HE HAS A POINT—A bank
teller skillfully embezzled S2O
- and did it so neatly that
the bank couldn’t prove a case.
All they could do was sum
marily fire him.
The next day the teller ap
plied for his old job. The per
sonnel man was floored at his
gall But the embezzler pointed
out: “My wife and I have
everything—a home, clothes,
new car. Why hire someone
who has to start from scratch,
and might be tempted to
steal?”
BOTTOM LINES—The sales
man had managed to get into
the house, and was putting on
the “high-class” act for the
lady of the house. “My, what a
lovely home you have,” he
gushed. “And what a beautiful
vase that is on the mantel!”
"Yes,” sighed the woman,
“that contains my husband’s
ashes.” “Oh, I’m sorry, I didn’t
know. How long has he been
dead?" “He’s not dead—he’s
just too lazy to find an ash
tray.” •
THE NEWS is to be highly
commended on the getting ac
quainted idea—“ Study duties.

FOLK DANCING AT CAMP— Children
of all ages enjoy folk dancing during the

Christian Youth League and the Sum-
your own mind.” The weekly
article simply gives a “run
down” on all the candidates for
public office within the area—
Also, the duties of each office.
Good deal—this affords all
voters information concerning
the candidates and their duties
if they are chosen. . .In other
words “Who” and for "What”.
“MISS” EDITOR—The Cow
Palace was a WPA project,
built at a cost of several million
dollars. It was originally in
tended to “grade” and/or auc
ion cattle. (I reckon it could be
used for that purpose now.
POINTS TO PONDER—She:
“You seem to be an able bodied
man. You ought to be strong
enough to work.” Tramp: “I
know, mum. And you seem to
be beautiful enough to go on
the stage, but evidently you
prefer the simple life." She:
“Step into the kitchen, and I’ll
see if I can stir up a meal for
you.”

way subconsciously through
the house, winding up in the
shower of his bathroom. As he

STATE BOARD STUDIES
ACROSS-LINE TRANSFERS
At its regular monthly meet
ing yesterday, the State Board
of Education considered appli
cations from parents who want
water, deluging himself plenty
and making a racket which
brought the Little Woman to
the scene.
Taking in the details, she
called him all kinds of so-and
so, winding up with a none too
flattering estimate of his past,
present, and future.
“That’s right, honey,” ad
mitted the shuddering sot. “I’m
everything you said—a n d
worse. But let me in, won’t
you? It’s raining sometning
awful out here.”
FOOD FOR THOUGHT—If
we paid no more attention to
our plants than our children,
we would now be living in a
jungle of weeds.
MY NEIGHBOR SAYS, “The
old gray mare ain’t what she
used to be”, but she ‘shore’ '
ain’t by herself.”
their children to attend schools
across county or district lines.
Under the new Minimum
Foundation Law, children may
attend schools in counties other
than their home county without
paying tuition. They will be al
lowed to enroll in and attend
schools across county lines if the
parents can give, to the State
Board of Education, sufficient
“compelling reason” for the need
of a transfer and if the school
system involved is willing to re
ceive the pupil without tuition
charges.
