30 No. 36 Child Guidance Clinic Is Unique Declares Speaker Utah County Child Guidance Clinic is unique in this country since the impetus or its support and organization has come entirely from the effort of local people. Thus declared by Dr. Thales H. Smith, Provo pediatrician, past president of the Child Guidance Clinic board and a member of the city-county health board.

He addressed members of the Orem Kiwanis Club at their Tuesday luncheon meeting at a local cafe. "We are concerned about physically handicapped children and emotionally disturbed children for three reasons: 1. These children have feelings. 2. They have problems.

3. They are human beings" Dr. Smith stated. Educators are now beginning to recognize that mentally deficient children can at least be trained if not educated. Dr.

Smith stated that the clinic has been operating entirely on local funds since the first of the year and he urged Kiwanians to help support the current drive for funds as well ai to acquaint legislators to ap-oropriate funds from state and federal sources to maintain this clinic. Dr. Smith predicted that within three or four years, if fund drives are successful and funds from state and federal sources are made available, the clinic will be up to full capacity with additional staff members and clinical help. Two new members were ln-i stalled into the club, Tuesday. They were Col.

Barnett Allen, and David Thomas. Other special guests included Robert Burningham and Gary Palmer of the Orem High School Key Club. Conducting the meeting was President DeLance Squire. Plans were made for the Kiwanis to sell peanuts this Saturday to raise funds to stage the annual Kid's Day program observed during this month.

How Soon For Sidewalks City officials are hopeful that by next Monday night that visit' ing bonding officials will pro vide the legal know-how in taking the freeze off of special improvement projects so that the city can once again sponsor sidewalk, curt) and gutter, and road oiling in behalf of property owners who pay the costs on a long term financing plan.

Orem along with other cities throughout the nation have been hampered all summer due to a reversal In the U. S. Supreme Court on a test case in Chicago. The case involved a citizen who refused to pay for a special Improvement project because he claimed he had never been properly notified and felt that mere newspaper notifica tion was not respecting his rights as a citizen. The court, in making the decision in favor of the property owner, contended that the states which did not have due process of law personal notification to each property owner) must write in into their laws.

Meanwhile bonding companies will not buy bonds until the change in the law is made. Ways and means are being worked out so that cities in Utah can adopt a new state ordinance that is now being drawn up. Editor Defined: It is alleged a schoolboy in Kansas wrote the following entitled "An "I don't know how newspapers got the world, and 1 don't think God does, for He ainU got nothing to say about these in the Bible. I think the editor is the missing link we read of, and that he stayed in the business until after the flood, came out and wrote the thing up, and has been kept busy ever since. If the edlfcr makes a mistake folks say he ought to be hung; but if the doctor makes mistakes, he buries them and people don't say nothing because they can't read Latin.

When the editor makes mistakes, there is a big lawsuit and swearing and a big fuss; but if the doctor makes one, there is a funeral with flowers and perfect silence. A doctor can use a word a yard long without him or anyone else knowing what it means, but If the editor uses one he has to spell it. If the doctor goes to see another man's wife, he charges for the visit, but if the editor goes, he gets a charge of buckshot. Any college can make doctors to order, but editors has to be born." Open House Held At OHS To Acquaint Girls With FHA Club An Open House was held at the Orem High School In the Home Economic Department for all of the girls at school It was sponsored by the FHA Club which is the Future Home-makers of America for the purpose of acquainting all girls of the school with the functions and purposes of the club. They were served refreshments and toured the department.

Background music over the school lound speaking system was played during the entire program. SUSTAINED TO NEW OFFICE IN MONTANA Mr. and Mrs. Shirl Loveless (Mryleen Smith) and children Jesse Ray, Shirlene and Russell of Great Falls, Montana, former Orem residents and son of Mr and Mrs. Ray Loveless of Orem have just purchased and moved into a new home in Great Falls, Montana.

Mr. Loveless Is Sales Manager of the Modern Softwater Service. Last week he was sustained as President of the Elders Quorum In newly created LDS Ward In Great Falls, Montana Stake. His many friends in this vicinity wish him success in his new appointment. i The city will grade, gravel and dust oil Main Street from 13th South to 17th South with th oil to be delivered Satur- day morning, according to City Manager O.

V. Farnsworth. This Improvement will considerably help the safety situation for re sidents of this area who have been worried about the dusty, narrow condition of the street which serves as a main access route to Westmore School for children of that area. Property owners along the street, however, will be required to pay for the dust oiling. Meanwhile about 70 of the Westmore Elementary School students were back "in classes this week after parents had kept them home last Friday in a boycott to bring about improvements in the area of 16th South and Main Street.

Dusty and nar row streest for the children to walk on and lack of bus trans-poration both Westmore ana ior Lincoln Junior High School students living in this area were the chief grievances of the parents. The Alpine School District is now providing "courtesy" trans- poration for junior high school students only. The students live "within the legal limit required Sidewalks are badly needed in this area. However, since the city does not and cannot legally finance these Improvements, property owners must finance the improvements either under special improvement project set up by the city or by private contractor in accordance to city specifications. Property owners with large acreages that are in semi-rural areas are usually opposed to the heavy financial burdens they would have in paying for their share of any sidewalk improvement.

TIGER GRIDDERS DRAW Hew Arrivals if yWWWWWMIMMIHWIWW Sept 12 the return eitvelope aside, where it might get lost or forgotten, but rather, to make a contribution immediately. (Place it in the return, postage-free envelope and drop it in any post box). Mr. Worlton pointed out that the clinic, a non-profit corporation which provides profe-sional services to mentally disturbed children and their parents, must have funds to continue operations until the end of the year. He said that all funds received stay in Utah County and used exclusively to help Utah County Children.

The fact that the clinic is doing an effective job is emphasized this quo from a Utah County father who visited the clinic this week. "My child is a new personality. It is nothing short of a miracle." Mr. Worlton said this is a typical comment by parents who have taken their children to the clinic. The more than 700 children and parents who have received attention at the clinic to date have come from every city in Utah County.

Show your concern for our children's future happiness, by responding immediately to the Child Guidance Clinic's appeal for funds, Mr. Worlton said.
