If you have a first grader start- ing off to school this year, you are probably asking yourself: | “Will he—or she—sit still and listen to what the teacher is say- ing? . . . What if something happens on the way to school? . . . How can I be sure he will get along with the other children?” Studies have shown that these are commen causes of apprehen- sion. Also, parents seem to be particularly anxious about wheth- “er or not their child is properly prepared for reading, having "heard so much lately about Read- ing Readiness. A great many parents not only wonder about their childen, they also question their own attitudes. Are they ready for the big step of sending their “baby” into the world ? There is an increasing aware- ness that this major turning point in a child’s life can lead to tension throughout the family— for the family will more or less be judged by the child’s public behavior and school performance. Everyone begins to feel somewhat on trial. Sometimes parents find it hard to accept the fact that their child has a new idol, his teacher. The youngster | may either talk too much about his teacher or refuse to say anything at all. In either case, his mother can’t help feel- ing a little left out, perhaps a bit resentful, too. There are conflicting feelings to cope with: we want our chil- -— A 5 + you might try working over the By MRS. MARY E.

One day we may decide that one particular ap- proach to a problem is the right one . . . the next day, we wonder! When our youngster was home with us all day, these uncertain- ties and possible errors of judg- ment had a way of working themselves out. They were our own affair.

And the parents of the other children? Even the most self-assured par- ent may feel uneasy, at times about these new relationships. Fortunately, some communities are taking steps to help parents through this period. For instance, suburban Wellesley, Massachu- setts, for some time has been con- ducting a pre-school mental health clinic called the Human Relations Service. Here, children are given free check-ups and their parents are interviewed by staff members. Parents who are fortunate enough to be able to discuss their children’s problems with an understanding person find that their own tensions are thereby reduced and they are better able to help their youngsters. Some might ask, why worry about children’s readiness for school? Children have a way of adjusting to new requirements, outgrowing their problems. But do they, always? As many as twenty-five percent of some of our first grade classes are held back. Every year millions of ele- mentary school children know failure before they’ve not gotten a fair start in life. For this reason, it would seem a good idea to check on each child’s readiness. A child who is ready for school —emotionally—as well as phys- ically is almost certain to do well It can, and should be, a very happy and rewarding time for all. Medical Tests For Bll New Drivers The State Department of Revenue reported today 32,511 persons have applied for learners’ permits since medical examinations were inaugu- rated for all new drivers on June 1. Secretary Charles M. Dougher- ty announced that during the two- month period, only 36 of the 32,511 applicants were rejected for physi- cal or neuropsychiatric defects. Traffic Safety Commissioner O. D. denied learners’ permits 15 were turned down for neurological, car- diac or circulatory conditions which would prevent reasonable control of a motor vehicle. The oldest person to apply and pass since the program went into effect is 85 years of age. Every applicant for a learner’s permit must now successfully under- go a physical examination. This new licensing procedure is one phase of Governor David L. Lawrence's 13-point safety program. Rejections of applications are for the following reasons: One 53-year-old man for loss of both hands. Two for visual reasons, with one a 39-year-old man blind in one eye and partly blind in the othér and a 23-year-old youth who failed to meet the minimum requirement of 20/70 or less in the better eye. Two young persons, both aged 16, who lacked the intellectual ma- turity of their chronological age. Four uncontrolled diabetics, three males and one woman, aged 22, 17, 44 and 47. . Two uncontrolled epileptics, both male, ages 18 and 22. Two men, one 65 and the other 48, as chronic alcoholics. Eight persons, ranging from 34 to 64, for cardiac or circulatory dis- orders. - Seven applicants, the youngest 16 and the eldest 80, failed as the re- sult of neurological disorders which in the judgment of the physician would prevent reasonable control of a motor vehicle. Four persons failed for mneuro- psychiatric reasons. They ranged from 17 to 33 years old. Four failures were recorded in the 16-39 age bracket as the result of conditions which cause repeated lapses of consciousness, such as narcolepsy and epilepsy. Of the 32,511 appliccants, 31 per cent were found upon examination to require the use of corrective lenses while driving. Infant Christened William Lavan Exarhopoulos was christened Sunday at Gate of Heav- en Church by Rev. Francis A. Kane.

WILLIAM KRIMMEL Mrs. William Krimmel has been named general of the Back Moun- tain area in the 1960 YWCA Mem- bership Enrollment by Mrs. John R. Uhl, general chairman. 1960 marks: the second consecutive year that Mrs. Krimmel has accepted this responsibility on behalf of this United Fund agency. In last year’s drive the Back Mountain Committee reported the highest percntage of new members enrolled in the YWCA. Introduction of adult program to this area was due in part to the enthusiastic res- ponse, and Mrs. Krimmel has stated that it is the hope of her commit- tee that 100% re-enrollment will be the result of this year’s efforts. Membership in the YWCA is open to all women and girls. The drive will begin Thursday, September 8, with a kick-off picnic to which all solicitors are invited. This will be held at the “Wishing Well”, home of Mrs. Aston Davis, Bear Creek. The drive will continue through September 19 when final reports will be given at a dinner at the YWCA. Mid-way reports may be made at the YWCA during Open House Thursday, September 15.

THE DALLAS POST, THURSDAY, SEPTEMBER 1, 1960 Opening New Meat Market With twenty years of experience in the meat business, Eddie Rahl of Luzerne as manager is opening the Butcher Boy Meat Market on Har- veys Lake Highway, in a location which has changed hands a number of times since it was first cleared and graded for business purposes by the Carvel Ice Cream Company. The glass building, first designed for an ice cream stand, has been remodelled to permit easy access, and there is ample parking space. It is conveniently located just north of Dallas traffic lights, across from the Gulf Service Station. The business is owned by Irving Salzburg of Wilkes-Barre, who for thirty years has operated Salz- burg’s Foods on East Northampton Street. His son, Max, will oversee the venture. The Salzburgs decid- ed to expand in this direction be- cause of the present growth of the Back Mountain, and anticipated future growth as urban populations continue to move to the suburbs. Injured In Fall From Hay Truck Ralph Ashburner, manager of Newberry’s Stone Acres Farm, upper Pioneer Avenue, Dallas, injured a vertebra of his spine when he fell from the back of a truck onto a macadam road. He is in a cast at Nesbitt Memorial Hospital. It is ironic that this accident happened exactly five months to the day after Mr. Ashburner left the hospital fol- lowing a surgical operation. Recent pay raises are a sign of increased purchasing power — and also increased prices. Discuss Plans To Form Committee For Schools First steps toward the formation of a (Citizens Committee for Better Schools were taken Wednesday night at an informal meeting at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Paul Rodda, Pioneer Avenue.

Invitations were extended to Mrs. Becky Shuster, president of PTA Council and to all PTA presidents. Attending were: Mr. and Mrs. Hanford Eckman, Mrs. Ann Vernon, Mr. and Mrs. William Gritman, Mr. and Mrs. Richard Demmy, Mrs. Elmer Phillips and Dr. Robert Mell- man. A public meeting will be an- nounced later. Frantz Reunion Held Sunday At Lake Jean Members of the George Frantz family held their annual reunion at Lake Jean on Sunday.
