Thomas, superintendent, said a new projector purchased for the school by PTA will be demonstrated. This equipment projects still images over the head and on a screen behind the teacher as she faces her class.

Kehm, opening speaker of the PTA season last month, described various important psychological and physiological development stages of school-age youngsters. Recognizing these as guideposts will help pai'ents achieve better understanding of their children. This should also cause parents to take a more relaxed attitude if they can recognize the normal factors and phases through whichgVoungsters progress, but alls serve the important purpose of signaling unusual conditions that might warrant professional attention, she said.
