SEPTEMBER 15. 1955 Clinton - Lydia Kin For Year With Mr: The Lydia - Clinton Mills Kindergarten opened this week for the 1955-56 year under the direction of Mrs. Theresa Tharp, Lydia Mills Community Director. Although located in the Lydia Kindergarten building, it will _L * 1 1 * 1 * serve cnuaren oi Doth Clinton and Lydia Mills communities. Mrs. Tharp said the kindergarten is a school where children are trained mentally, physically, emoti' nally and socially. Parents should not expect children to be simply entertained all of the time because they also will be given valuable pre-school training. True joy will be derived from daily progress. Each child must be brought to the teacher, unless the parent personally makes other arrangements with the teacher. The child should not be sent in alone, nor should parents blow car horns for children after kindergarten. Each child must have been inoculated against whooping cough and diphtheria. If a child has any indications of a contagious disease, they should be kept at home until he has returned to normal. This is necessary for the protection of all children attending kindergarten O 0 The fee for kindergarten is 50 cents a week. This is used to help defray part of the expenses. The payment should be made regularly on Monday ... C (To Tune of "1 p 1 !

THE CLOTHMAKER Follow The Rules From birth there have been certain rules of life that we must follow if we wish to live to a normal age. In every walk of life, too, we have rules or policies that must be carried out to do our jobs. Even nature which supplies us with food, clothing, etc., has its rules or obligations to follow because without them the plant, animal or mineral life would die and yet some of us with brains that are certainly capable of thinking expect to break these rules and still get by. How dumb can we humans be? For example, we know that if we take into our bodies poison or anything that will hurt our bodies, we must and will pay the price. We know, too that our hands and limbs are not strong enough to stop machines and yet we let them get in the machines and come away with mangled or missing members of our limbs. We challenge the rules. Our Maker has not only given us the regulations for our way of life, He has sent down a living example to illustrate clearly how it should be done and many of us today are falling short in our every day lives in keeping the rules. The result? What can we expect0 When we wake up to the fact that the world although made to perfection is not ours alone. PHYSICIANS SAY EVERYONE OVER 45 should have his chest X-rayed every six months. This is partly a precaution against undiscovered tuberculosis, though actually, people over 45 are no likelier to have tuberculosis than others. More important, however, chest radiographs twice a year after that age will help find other difficulties such as lung cancer, which can be cured when found and treated early. SHORTY ?
