Student Hearing Tests Vital
The number of school dis-
tricts offering hearing tests
for school children has in-
creased significantly in recent
years, but such programs are
not yet universal. For this rea-
son, parents of each school-
age child should insure the
child receives a hearing test
at least once per year, accord-
ing to the Beltone Crusade for
Hearing Conservation.
The crusade, sponsored by
Chicago-based Beltone Elec-
tronics Corporation, world
leader in hearing aids and
electronic hearing test instru-
ments, is designed to make
persons aware of the vital
need to protect their hearing
ability.
Crusade officials stress that
frequently the hard-of-hear-
ing child is not aware of his
handicap. Parents and teach-
ers also often fail to recognize
the child’s problem. Because
such youngsters are being
forced to compete in the class-
room under a serious handi-
cap, they often are inatten-
tive, surly, preoccupied, dis-
obedient or withdrawn from
classroom and family activi-
ties. In some instances the^
are considered just plain
dumb.
When teachers or parents
are unaware of a child’s hear-
ing impairment, they are apt
to try to solve the child’s
scholastic or behavorial prob-
lems through measures that
are both time consuming and
useless. In many instances
such measures can actually
be harmful to the youngster.
This is why, crusade offi-
cials explained, they encour-
age each parent of a school-
age child to insure the young-
ster has a hearing screening
test during the current aca-
demic year-either by a medi-
cal ear specialist, at a hearing
clinic, or by a hearing aid
dealer.
SUNDAY SCHOOL LESSON NOTES
"God Responds to Prayer", and if our earthly parents, "be-
ing evil", knew full well how to give us our real needs enough,
how much more will our Heavenly Father Who knows all
things, give us good things- "to them that ask Him? Our
common intelligence instantly reassures He will far-immeas-
urably-supply us. In our human reason, we see the need for
our recognizing our needs, and exhibiting our helpessness by
our requesting Him for our real needs. All our sustenance
must come from His hands, so we must ask Him for it all. We
must not idly pray for things which we are equipped to do for
ourselves. One doctor said he prayed for his patients, but it
might be evidenced their needs might be fulfilled with eye-
glasses, or maybe a pair of crutches, or a hearing aid. "God
helps those who help themselves. " One thought on this is in
fishing don't trust to fate, " God furnishes 'the fish, but we have
to dig the bait. " One poet said about the weather:" 'tain't no
use to grumble and complain it's jest as cheap an easy to re-
joice! When God sorts out the weather and sends rain-why
rain's my choice!" Of course the basis or foundation of every
Christian prayer is as Jesus taught: "Not my will, but God's
will be done. " "Uncle Mat" Old said if some folks were to
get what they prayed for it would scare them to death! jean
Ingelow said: "I have lived to thank God that all my pray-
ers have not been answered. "Paul with his afflication de-
clared: "And lest I should be exalted above measure through
the abundance of the revelations, there was given to me a
thorn in the flesh, the messenger of Satan to buffet me, lest
I should be exalted above measure. "
Our next great lesson, "God Heals Broken Humanity,
Scriptures: Isaiah 61; Ephesians 2:11-19; Colossians 1:21-23;
Memory Selection: "When He saw the multitudes, He was
moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and
were scattered abroad., as sheep having no shepherd. "-Matt.
9:36. When looking on an unfortunately broken human being,
let's think: "There but for the grace of God, go 1! "Enoch
was translated-did not die-because he pleased God, an! it was
by his Faith he pleased God. Thusly, die future life with God
is signified, and life on earth is not uie only life or the true
life. Death’s conquered by Christ's Resurrection!
Our Goodwill Class was again blessed by the presence of
Mr. and Mrs. Fred Etheridge our able Pastor's mother and
stepfather. They contributed a lot to our "lot/ "
More Deadly than a Rattlesnake
A black widow spider’s venom -
more potent drop for drop than
a rattlesnake’s - causes intense
pain. Deaths, however, occur from
only four or five of the more than
1,000 bites reported in the United
States each vear.
