JUST A LINE MORE
From Page 1
wanting to escape to the
wide open spaces--
anything to get out of the
"classroom"-- anything
but books, v umbers,
recitations, reading and
penmanship! My goal for
the day when I started
out each morning was the
3:30 P.M. bell. I cried so
hard the first day of
school, I fell down the
steps. I think I cried the
first day of school every
year after that until I was
in the fifth grade, when
thereafter it took the
threat of a belt to drive
me there. If I had a child
like that today, I would
just have to feel sorry for
them. I marvel at how
children love to go to
school today, in fact, start
looking forward to it
about the middle nf July.
Things have sure cha.;$-
ed, or at least attitudes
have changed.
So, whether anyone else
is happy about it or not,
I'm glad to see the last
day of school arrive. Sum-
mer is really here now,
and if we can get the cold
snap of Memorial Day
behind us, we can settle
down to a carefree, happy
summer--that is until
J about August 1, when we
start dreading to think
about school starting
again!

THINKING IT OVER
A Day
By Zola Samplt
After the Civil War the
women of the North and
South decided to decorate
the graves of the dead
soldiers. The day became
known as Decoration
Day. In later years, it has
become Memorial Day.
On this day the entire na-
tion remembers and
makes an effort to travel
far and wide to lay a
wreath on either a
relative's or loved one's
grave.
In the early morning
when the dew is still on
the roses they gather in
groups in cemeteries
across the land thinking
of other happy days while
visiting with folk they
have not seen for years
past. They walk the nar-
row paths among the
many graves of the City
of the Dead.
On the hillside of cer-
tain cemeteries, doves coo
at early day and the air is
fresh and cool. Sadness
sweeps across many
minds but time and life
goes on for the living.
Meeting with old friends
and use to neighbors help
to bring the sorrowed one
back to reality and help
heal the wounds of recent
sorrow to some.
Dinners are sometimes
spread in nearby parks
and the Day of
Remembering does bring
some pleasure to the liv-
ing. It is a day well spent
in some ways to those
who wish to participate in
a few hours in remem-
brance and respect to
those gone on. It seems to
help those who must
carry on life's journey.
I know I miss getting
to go to the cemetery at
~dso miss the visiting with
old friends. The old Basin
cemetery was moved just
across the highway at
Mannford when the
Keystone Dam was in
construction. So I always
decorated the graves of
both the Sample and
BellEs graves I managed
to drive to this cemetery
for fifteen years alone.
Over the years I always
remembered. I think most
people across our land
have experienced the
same feeling. It was a
wonderful deed those
women did after the War
to help bring the nation
together in love,
understanding and peace.
If only all nations on the
globe could be reconciled
to this feeling of reality
and come to some kind of
peaceful agreement in-
stead of trying to kill off
human beings. It is a sad
time for many in foreign
lands. I guess there will
always be wars and
rumors of wars, death and
destruction as long as the
world stands.
However on this day,
The Cities of the Dead
across our land will bloom
out With many lovely, ex-
pensive decorations.
Some will be homemade,
others just potted plants
or sprays. Many will go
back to pick up their
flowers before they are
ruined.
May this day of heavy
traffic over the long
weekend be a safe journey
for all. Drive careful and
avoid accidents so others
will not have to be sad-
dened this year. Watch
the sky for tornadoes.

Doctor Thompsen:
I'm eoneorno¢! about
having dental x-rays.
Why can't the doctor jtmt
look at my teeth?
Concerned
Dear Concerned:
Dental x-rays are an im-
portant tool used to
detect dental diseases. If
your leg was fractured
and required surgical at-
, tention, you'd probably
think twice about refus-
ing an x-ray prior to
surgery.
Decay isn't the only
oral disease. There are
over 200 maladies occur-
ing in the mouth and
jaws. These diseases can
only be identified with
dental x-rays. Diagnosing
conditions like oral cancer
in the early stages has
significant beneifts to the
patient.
The American Dental
Association, the U.S.
Public Health Service,
and the American
Academy of Oral
Radiology have stated
that modern equipment
and techniques have
made dental x-rays com-
pletely safe.
The National Commit-
tee on Radiation Protec-
tion says there is no scien-
tific evidence that proper
use of dental x-rays is
harmful. The amount of
radiation from dental x-
rays reaching vital body
organs is similar to the
amount received in a
single day from natural
sources, like the sun.
We take special care to
insure your continued
dental health by using
modern x-ray equipment,
up-to-date techniques and
licensed personnel, con-
trolled frequency and
number of x-rays.
Great steps have been
taken in the last decade to
control and prevent den-
