'His general debility pmay be due to post-natal and' en- vironmental conditions. Hearing and vision are often found to be .the cause of retarded progress in the child's development. Emotional and temperamental difficulties of- ten retard the growth of the child. The power and span of attention in- creases or retards the educational growth of the child. Activities of greater meaning and purpose will ,add to his growth. A child learns Sgrom and by experience. He has ty, and rest. He also. needs to have a feeling of belonging and of af- fection. He requires opportunities for increasing self-direction and learning to manage affairs more adequately. Every school has a group of children that needs individual in- struction. With a small group much progress, can be made by co- ordinating the. hand and the eye with learning processes. With fewer children in the group more attention can be given to emotion- al problems. The State Office of Special In- struction has mapped out a pro- gram to aid the teacher in this specialized service. This program will be a basis for the work car- State Educators Speak to Teachers On School Plans Dr. J. T.

At times the team has been a little weak but for the most part they have fielded a fair to good team. Last year saw one of the finest teams ever produced here take the field and Coach Craig has hopes for an even stronger team this year. But the team still has no place to play. They DO have a first class field sodded with free labor and built at no cost to the taxpayers except for the limited use of a county grader and trucks to haul and spread dirt on the field which is now being constructed on the east side of the high school. The field has been con- structed by a group of citizens calling them- selves the "Shark Boosters". This free labor has done a magnificent job as a look at their efforts will fully testify. The field is completely covered with a thick turf and is still being cultivated to become even thicker and more hardy. But there are no lights on the field. Now let's stop and look at this situation a little. St. Joe has fielded a team ever since 1937 or thereabouts. That makes at least 26 years of football competition. Twenty-six years and not a permanent well lighted (but now sodded) field to call the local football stadium. There are a host of towns near Port St. Joe that are much smaller than ours but have first-class foot- ball stadiums with lights, bleachers and well- sodded grounds. You can well imagine their derisive think- ing when they think of the sandy field that the local eleven plays on. You can imagine their taunts at our team when they journey to other towns and play on immaculate diamonds with all the conviences not found at home. Without even thinking of the comfort of, our' players and the increased enjoyment that would be derived from a well-appointed sta-1 dium, Port St. Joe has a reputation to keep up' and we will not keep it up with the football crowd until some arrangements are made to place lights and bleachers at the new field that has been constructed only after much hard work 'n the part of several private citizens. Why not make a small suggestion to your school board and see if we can't secure these things for our local diamond. Possibly it won't be completed this year but there is another year next year, and we are definitely not leaving, out b the fact that the project COULD be finished for 1 use at least during the last half of the season. i k John Wananwaker said: "People who cannot find time for recreation are obliged sooner or later to r find time for illness." T he fish are biting or just be patient until he can catch himself a mess f "fat, sassy fish". We felt good this past week end because several people congratu- ated us on. our last week's editor- al. We thank you folks for the ind words. Now this is what we call the ight temperature, (Monday and 'uesday). If we knew where the temperature stayed just as it b. been here fbr these two days ;-.

RAMSEY We have never seen the likes of folks going on vacation. Guess we'll,have to get in the style and take a vacation too. We have allowed ourselves two weeks vacation for this summer and have taken up a week of it by taking a day at a time each Sunday. That leaves a week to go and we just don't know if we are going to get that second week used up before winter or not. Several people have told us. o taking two or three days off and. making a swing down the west coast of Florida and coming back up the East coast and stopping to see important sight seeing attrac- tions along the way,,such as Bok Tower, Marineland, Silver Springs, Stephen Foster Memorial, St. Au- gustine and other points of attrac. tion. The more we think of this, the more we think we'll save our pennies and take the same trip one week end before too long. We have lived in Florida off and on since 1940 and have never been any farther south than Crawford- ville and no farther east than Tal- lahassee. Why, would you believe it, we have never even been to Oy- erstreet? We're just going to take a trip over, to that city and take a gander at it. We see in the "Staiduster" col- umn where ex-editor. Bill is taking ,a little jaunt over the country. You get these old editors out of har- ness and they just go plumb crazy traveling around and seeing things. It's understandable though, as an editor can't call his time his own from Monday morning until the pa- per is out. We see where Wallace Findlay up in Blountstown has defied tra- dition and is. also taking a vacation. Then there is Joe Malpas down in Crawfordville who goes on a week end vacation every time the fish: are biting, and if they aren't ,biting he tries to make them bite. Joe tell people to either refrain from bringing in job printing when Its certainly plain to see...

HERRING, Owner Phone 363 Port St. Joe TOO LATE TO CLASSIFY BY RUSSELL KAY A few weeks ago I wrote in this column of the Miaini family who was trying to work out an exchange agreement so that they could send their three children to the country for a vacation and in return enter- tain the children of some rural family at their home in Miami. I am in receipt of an interesting letter from this family and it is gratifying to learn that they were successful in working out such an exchange and giving details as to how it panned out. Amnong the several exchange of- fers they received in response to the publicity given in the news- papers they found one from a farm family located in Keuka, Putnam County. the most inviting. July 26, the Singletons of Miami packed their children in the family car and drove them to the Kline Farm where they were made wel- come and had the time of their lives. They found feeding the chick- ens, hunting for eggs, watering the horses and slopping the hogs a thrilling experience. Together with the four Kline children they went on hayrides, vis- ited the old swimming hole, enjoy- ed picnics and weiner roasts, gain- ed first hand knowledge of such feathered .and furry creatures as quail, doves, squirrels, hoot owls and other forms of wild life sel- dom encountered in the neighbor- hood of hot city pavements. I A week later the Singletons re- turned to pick up their children as well as the four Kline young- sters and drove them to Miami, stopping on the way at Silver Springs and Bok Tower, which none of the children had seen. It was an experience they will long re- member. Because of the publicity the "ex- change plan" had received, Miami folks were interested and volun- teered to help the Singletons en- tertain th eir country friends. County Commissioners provided them with a free cabana at Cran- don Park and free rides on all the amusement devices topped off with a picnic lunch and Coca-Colas. The Miiami I)aily News invited them to tour their newspaper plant, and bug-eyed youngsters :ot a terrific bang out of watching ;he I busy news room and seeing the fi- nal edition run off on the giant presses. The ele-ator' ride Lo :ihe 16th floor of the News Tower and the'view of the Magic City was as thrilling to the country children as was feeding the chickens and slop- ping the hogs to their ,i .y cousins. Captain H. A. Donovan of the P & O SS Florida welcomed the op- portunity to show the youngsters over his ship. He tok them from engine room to bridge and explain- ed in language they could under- stand the operations of the vessel. The manager of the O ympia The- atre had the children as his guess for a feature pictaac and .5-act stage show. It was the first time any of the children ever saw a stage show and they are still talk- ing about it.

Mayor of Buckhorn We left the "hog and hominy" country Saturday morning after spending three days with the Doc Coody's-Some of Myrtice's thou- sand and one relatives And as usual, we ate high on the hog-and me on a diet. Started out from Stardust Lodge weighing in at 189 and, while I haven't weighed, bet I've picked up at least four pounds in those three days. We spent Saturday in Cedartown, Ga., with George and Frankie Col- bert, former residents of .St. Joe, where George worked for the Apa- lachicola Northern Railroad: .. And they, too, insisted on filling us up to the neck'with good food. Had intended to stop in Rome to see exAPostmaster Henry and Min- nie Ola Drake, but they had gone skyhootin' off to Atlanta on unim- portant ,business so we missed em, much to our regret. The Col erts have one of the coziest and most delightful homes it has been my pleasure to see in years. It is located on a slight slope that is literally covered with huge boulders and stone outcropping and peppered with ancient trees . . I can't begin to tell what George has done in the way of beau- tifying his property with this field stone-It just has to be seen. We're heading for Ohattanooga on 'Sunday and will take in Rock City and Ruby Falls Froin there we go to Nashville and oth- er points and will cross the Mississ- ippi at Paducah, Ky., giving Myr- tice her first glimpse of the "Fath- er of Waters".

It was hard for me to picture her as a "single lady"-she should, ac- cording to my. ideas, have been married to some worthy young man. So-I asked her why. She told me that she was an only child and had to take care of her par- ents. Her father was a cripple and her mother, over 65, had to care for him-they had spent their small savings educating her. I dropped the subject right there. Here was one child who had a true each of her parents. You see, Jan- et had provided their major source 'of income-they were dependent on her.
