Pr, O'Laughlin Speahs At School
Several studentH from the Cooperative Edncatioa claas gather¬ ed around Dr. O'l^ughlln following his talk on communications. The students left to right are Larry Birkeneder, Becky Obenauf, Penny Tracy and Steve Finzel.
Dr. James O'Laughlin DDS. from Huntley Medical Center, gave a very interesting talk to the cooper¬ ative educaticn class at the Hunt¬ ley High  School  last week.
Dr. O'Laughlin spoke about com¬ munications and public relations. Through dentistry a person aom- municates many thing about him¬ self and his attitudes. The appear- ancf- of ones teeth and the de¬ gree to which he practices oral hygiene are easily seen and noticed by almost everyone that he comes in contact with.
This Dr. O'Laughlin stated also includes every time that one ap¬ plies for a job. When applying for a job, the proper communication displayed to the interviewer or per¬ sonnel manager about ones person¬ al habits and attitude is most im¬ portant.
The selling cf ones self through good communications is a basic form of good public relations.

Here by the Owl
It has been said that a farmer is a man outstanding in his Icld. That statement can be taken at least two different ways, and I \v<ould have to agree with either one. It is a pflees- ure to be serving such a fine group of people.
The editor of the Huntley Farm- side and 1 were talking? one day and concluded that no one around here writes especially for, to, or about local people engaged in agri¬ culture. Any sdhool boy can tell you that the person who asks the teacher a question she can not an¬ swer is the one who ends up writ¬ ing the. report.
