The mark. denotes superior school work. About three times as many students should receive "B's" as About fifty percent of the students in a typical student body receive the average mark The mark is given to students whose work is definitely unsatisfactory. It should be considered a warning that better work is desirable. The mark is given to students whose work is so unsaitisfacory or whose behavor is so undesirable, that they must be failed.

It is hoped that parents whose children receive marks below will consult the faculty of the school and will cooperate with them in helping tht- students to do more satisfactory work.

Donald Jones helped Ralph Shelquist set fence posts Monday. OUR MOST IMPORTANT JOB The newspapers the other day resorted a poll of opinion in a certain Junior High School. The students in this Iowa school were asked to list their most serious family problems.

At the head of their list was this complaint. "My parents never plan anything that we can do together. Other families do lots of things." This Iowa town has school teachers and Sunday school teachers. It has ministers and scout masters. There are community recreation facilities.

All of these agencies are working over time to help the parents raise their children and still the children need something else. Their parents are doing things for them but not with them. None complained about material comforts. Their problems concerned parents, too busy to know their children. And the parents in this Iowa town are not very different from other parents in busy America.

There is a motion picture which all parents' groups might well show on their school projectors. This film may be rented from the Visual Aid Department at the State University. It is called "A "riminal Is Born." The picture is a litttle too dras- But it shows clearly the youth's need for companionship with his parents. It also shows how father and son can live more closely together. It shows what may happen when parents are too busy.

It is not enough to make a good living for our young people. Or to put plenty of spending money in their pockets. A '49 convertible for his birthday is a poor substitute for a boy's share in family life. It takes time and thought to live close to modern youth. It most important job.

The Timid Child Some of us are timid, whether we are three, thirteen or thirty. Some of us are timid because we were made too dependent on our parents when we were young. Some are timid because they do have the physical energy which shoves others ahead. Bit by bit the timid child learns to let others take the lead. He thinks he cannot do as well as the other.

He finally concludes that he cannot do anything at all. He may quit trying. The timid child's first need is! our understanding. Prodding, pushing, of these will help him. The next thing he needs is a taste of success.

His first taste may be very small, at tasks easy to accomplish. The little child who buttons his own coat and receives praise may brighten and try again. The 10- year-old girl who learns to play "jacks" well may be encouraged to txcel in jumping rope. She will begin to feel at ease among the other children. A boy may play at marbles with only one boy.

If he wins, he may find courage to compete good at making airplanes or tinkering with radio can build a place for himself in the gang. A teacher discovered that a i Kinser Valley I By George R.

In a few weeks, she was chosen soloist. The girl lost much of her timidity and began to have a good time. A bashful high school boy improved when his teacher gave him a chance on the team. He showed surprising athletic ability and soon found confidence in himself. There are many other causes of timidity and many other ways to htlp the timid child.

But nothing succeeds like success. It pays to try it. is our Heading Off Fear Have you ever had your child scream with fright when the doctor or the dentist looks at him? Some children are frightened by their first trip on a train, or by a new woolly toy animal. One child was afraid of his mother when she put on her new coat with a high fur collar. It is natural for new and strange experiences to frighten little children.

The young child cannot adjust quickly to new places and things. He needs a little time to find out about his strange experiences, We and to get used to them, help the child to get i -USE IN VWUE Of A -'its SAVINGS BOND staying at the parental Paul Harrington home.

If an old favorite toy goes along, he will have something familiar to which to cling. A friendly visit to the dentist ahead of time often relieves fear. Perhaps the dentist will have time to give the child a ride up and down in the big chair, just for fun. A doctor often allows a small child to look carefully at his instruments before he touches the child with them. It often reduces a child's fear of a strange room if we will stand tt the door a few minutes with him.

This gives him a chance to look over the place and see what he is getting into.
