"Parents yearn for a compre hensive report of their children's scholastic abilities and potentia lities,” says Mother M. Agnesine, principal of St. Mary’s academy, “and they want evidence that their child is getting as much as possible from his hours spent in school. To provide this, the Iowa every pupil tests of basic skills were ad ministered to students of the 10th and 12th grades. The testing pro gram measures the student’s basic skill in fourteen important aspects of the four major basic skills reading, wordstudy, basic language and basic arithmetic. Results of these tests form a basis for individualizing instruc tion and increase the effective ness of the school's educational program", Mother Agnesine said. On November 13 and 14, the Otis intelligence tests were ad ministered to the freshmen and juniors. From the results of these tests teachers have a fairer esti mate of what the capabilities of each student are. Each student can then be encouraged to work up to his capabilities. Mrs. Faye Pinkerman of Red bird spent the weekend caring for Wes Pinkerman, small son of Mr and Mrs. Reginald Pinker man. How This Newspaper Helps Advertisers...

Terry ^ Carpentet heads a committee that is undertaking big things in the field of tax vaules His unicameral committee is making a study with a view to wards presentation at the 1959 legislative session. The psychological effect of such a study is great, Carpenter re ported. It should produce better valuations, so the home owner won’t get stuck further because of violations by big property own ers, it was said. An expected fight among com mittee members over procedure did not develop. Sens. David Tews of Norfolk, John Munnelly of Omaha and Fay Wood of Seward said they did not oldect to what was being done by Carpenter, but did want to be informed of action l>efore may read it in the newspapers. Carpenter agreed to send cop ies of all corespondence to com mittee members so they would have background information for answering questions of constit uents. Another problem that of mon ey—was discussed. Carpenter said he was not going to let this stop the probe, if he had to pay costs out of his own pocket or make a public appeal for funds. Many returns already have been changed, the Scottsbluff senator said, as a result of functioning of the committee. The check in Saunders showed usual types of violations, accord ding to Herrington. No grain to feed a lot of cattle on hand March 1. Low value on expensive heavy equipment. Changes in values after the legal deadline, without the re quired penalty. Incomplete tax returns. Undervaluation of buildings on leased land, or complete disre gard for listing any value. Some taxpayers reported val-| uations truthfully, but assistant assessors put dowai lower ones. Much irrigation equipment was listed, but there was no differ ence in valuation between dry land and irrigated land. There may lie another move in the legislature to try to exempt all household goods from taxation. State Tax Commissioner Fred Herrington said assessing these items, which include jewerly con sumes 75 percent of the budget of a county assessor, and the re venue is only two percent of the total tax values In addition, the tax chief said NO percent of the complaints lod ged with assessors come 'mm I \ allies on household finals FOR EXTRA WIDE SEATS • There’s “three in a row" comfort in Studebaker's roomier interiors.
