Our primary aim is to help children learn the basic skills and develop the knowledge necessary for them to live productive lives. However, sometimes there are roadblocks to learning and through what we call our pupil services, District 15 tries to help remove or lessen these roadblocks when it is possible. There are many things which may make it difficult for a child to really involve himself in the learning process. Such things as learning disabilities, problems at home, difficulty getting along with fellow students, health problems, or psychological problems present challenges to students which they may be unable to handle alone. Because we know students do have such problems, our District has a team of specialists serving each school. The team includes a psychologist, guidance coun­ selor, learning disabilities teacher, speech clinician and a nurse. When a teacher or perhaps a parent feels there may be need for some special help, the team will meet and determine what services are needed. No further action is taken until parents have been consulted. Then a plan is developed and the • • » • Wise men believe noth­ ing that contradicts their intelligence. student receives help from the appropriate person or persons. Some children have problems. which are generally called learning disabilities. These children have average or above average intelligence but they have various kinds of problems which keep them from func­ tioning as well as expected. The learning disability of L.D. child may have difficulty sitting still or be easily distracted or unable to concentrate for even a short time. Poor motor coordination is another possible L.D. characteristic. Such children may have difficulty walking a balance beam or drawing certain objects (for example a circle) and frequently they use either hand for writing. Learning Disabilities children have difficulty seeing things in the same way others do or may be unable to un­ derstand words and sounds correctly. For example they might reverse words so they would see no as on or saw as was. The child with a learning disability is frustrated in his or her efforts to learn ana as a result may also have trouble with behavior in the classroom. Children who are found to have learning disabilities receive help from the learning disabilities teacher either in­ dividually or as part of a small group. They work together two, three, four or five times a week depending on need and the learning disabilities teacher also works with classroom teachers so that appropriate activities are available to the learning disabilities child in his or her regular classroom. Children who have speech problems are referred to a speech clinician who works with children individually or in small groups. The District's guidance counselors meet with children and parents as they are needed, lliey also serve as consultants to the other staff members. Health personnel conduct yearly vision and hearing screening, monitor attendance and are responsible for the school's records. Students are required by law to have physical examinations and innoculations or tests at cerUin grade levels and the health staff makes sure these records are up to date. Another person in the pupil services area is the District psychologist, Ron Jania. When a school team has determined that psychological tests might be needed, Jania contacts parents and arranges for testing and consultation with both student and parents. He also works with the school teams helping to diagnose problems and helping teachers develop methods for dealing with these problems in the classroom. In these and other ways we hope to provide the best ser­ vices to all children throughout the District. Consumer Forum by Illinois Attorney General William J. Scott Permanent jobs are difficult enough to obtain. And this year summer jobs will be even more scarce. Many young people need summer employment to con­ tinue various forms of education. And many other people who can't afford long term education are looking for a "fast course" that will land them a good paying permanent job. Both of the above are ready targets for fraud or, at best, misleading promises which relieve them of money without replenishing their wallets in the future. For example, last year this and similar ads appeared in a number of small town newspapers: "Livestock Buyers" "Can you qualify to buy cattle, hogs and sheep? Do you have a farm background and enjoy working with livestock? "Livestock Buyers make a good living...have a secure future...and enjoy what they're doing! "If you have a sincere in­ terest in becoming a Livestock Buyer, write today with your personal background. Include name, age, address and phone number. A personal interview will be arranged in your area." To many people, this would sound like a possible job. It did to a college student. U did to a laborer. And it did to a number of other Illinois residents who followed up on it. But what it turned out to be was an ad for schooling - a correspondence course for, which the "enrollee" had to pay $690. No job was guaranteed. I went to court on behalf of a number of Illinois residents who had paid money to this organization (which, among other things, was not registered with the Illinois Department of Education according to statutory requirement). Subsequently, the "school" was ordered to cease doing business in this state (until such time as it may obtain proper statutory authority); and its officers agreed to return any payments received to all those Illinois residents who had paid out money and had complained to the Attorney General's office. Be extremely cautious of any advertisement which appears to promise a job but which, when investigated, requires a "course" or 11 training" for which you must first pay money. Read the small print in any contract. Does it support the salesman's words and-or the implication of the ad to which you responded? Is any job, mentioned or implied, guaranteed in writing in the contract? If so, does it specify, in writing, the name, address and telephone number of "the hiring firm and-or its representative. If so, contact the alleged hiring company yourself, first, before you sign anything or pay any money. Check if the alleged hiring company does indeed have such jobs waiting and does have a m&tual hiring agreement with the "school" which will train you. Sound arrangements of this kind which are publicized by such advertisements as shown earlier are few and far between in the experience of my office. Another twist of this kind of "advertisement - training - job offer" is that after a person has invested several weeks of training time, not to mention any course payment, he is persuaded to accept a com­ mission basis of compensation as opposed to a flat weekly salary. However, when the employee goes out "on the road," he may find that his area already has been saturated by previous solicitors or that his product or service is not as attractive to potential consumers as he had been led to believe during his "training". And a final word of advice: Be cautious when dealing with out-of-town companies which operate . from hotel or motel suites and have no permanent local address. Many such companies pocket the em­ ployee's earnings, then pack up and fly off into the night without giving the employee his salary or commission.

How did the doughnut get its hole? . Many stories have evolved through the years on how this came about, says Richard A. Niglio, president of Mister Donut -- a division of Minneapolis-based Inter­ national Multifoods. Most of these stories, he added, are pure myth. One version has it that an Indian shot an arrow through a fried cake being prepared by a Pilgrim woman, and thus, the hole-in-the-center caught on. Still another story puts it this way: a sea captain inven­ ted the hole so he could stack his doughnuts on the spokes of the ship's wheel. The real story, says Niglio, is that the doughnut hole was invented by a 15-year-old boy in 1847. The boy, Hanson Gregory, who -- while watching his mother make fried cakes -» complained that the center of the cakes were always soggy. He began poking the centers out of the cakes before his mother fried them, and thus was born the "doughnut". There's a plaque by the house in Rockport, Maine, where Hanson lived. It's in­ scribed: "In commemoration -- this is the birthplace of Capt. Hanson Gregory who first invented the hole in the doughnut in 1847." The newest version of the doughnut, says the Mister Donut executive, is "The Hole Thing" -- a doughnut on a stick. It was created, according to Niglio, to appeal to both adults and children and "to keep fingers clean". He ex­ pects his company alone to sell more than 700 million doughnuts in 1976 "with and without holes." The doughnut has come a long way since young Hanson Gregory began pokinp the centers out of fned cakes back in 1847.
