Acceptance by RAYMOND JOE C-CAP Student think to be accepted by anyone, you would have to be just plain considerate, thoughtful, understanding and kind. Being around here in this neighborhood as long as 1 have, and knowing so many people here in Albina, I find that there are people that won't be accepted by others simply by what they wear or how they look. I have been to certain places where I wasn't ac– cepted myself and experienced this, I have seen friends of mine who were turned down because of what they were wearing, and they are usu– ally undersrnndable and nice. These are mostly whites, but many blacks are the same way, You can't just judge an in– dividual by what he's wear– ing or how he looks, and I think it's about time people a round here in Albina and every where else woke up to this. It' s a problem that should be thought about, and people with morals should think about it, because it is bad for any– one. I wrote this because this is the way I feel so I'm letting it out into the open, because you can't be brothers and sisters with this goingon. Attention hy ANETTA HORSLEY C-CAP Student One of the biggest prob– lems with some of the teen– age r s of today is that they ar e neglected and want a Ii ttle attention which they ar en't getting. So, in order to get attention or be no– ticed, they'll go out and get into trouble. Actually, getting into trouble doesn't help these teen- agers at all; it really does more harm to the in– dividual, I believe that if the teachers and parents of these individuals would talk to them and find out their problems, they could help keep a lot of teen-agers out of t rouble. 1 feel that the teachers in the schools should learn to unde ,·stand and get along with all the students in the class– room and not just one or two, because, really, all the stu– dents should be treated equally. Also, if the parents would help these teen-agers, too, then between the parents and teachers helping, there would be less trouble with the teen-agers involved. Adoptions Q, Can we adopt if we al– ready have children? A, Yes, Many parents want larger families. 13 o y s Girls Aid Society wel– comes inquiries from couples with or without children, February a, 1968 The Oregon Advance/TIMES Page 5 Landscaping ·Classes Set Oops, Sorry!

He was in deep trouble at one point in the baseball game when the manager came to the mound and said, "Son, I think you've had enough." "But I struck out this guy the Ia st time he was µp," the pitcher protested. "I know," the manager said, "but this is the same inning I" be accommodated, so those who wish to attend should advise the Neighborhood Service Center.
