VALUE OF A DEFINITE
ROAD PROGRAM

township CruSCeeS dIS Ac"AAutS
that the best way to get their share
of the road dollar is to agree at this
+, time of year on a road program. In
other words decide now what road i'm
provement work they will do in 1921.
Many, township boards are asking
for conference with their commits
sioners. In some instances county COM
missioners have accepted invitations
from township trustees to spend one
day in township inspecting road
conditions and invoicing how much
money can be used on roads in that
particular township. This sort of
cooperation makes both commission
ers and trustees popular in that town
ship.
Commissioners in some counties
have reported that they cannot do
anything for some townships because
the township trustees have made no
levy and have no funds and are not in
position to even ask for their share Of
county and state funds. This means
that some other township trustees will
get the money that ought to have
gone to the township that has neglect
ed to do it's duty to get it's share of
the road dollar
In several counties of Ohio road
program is now agreed upon with the
trustees and every township in the
county. This means that each town
ship will get it's share. Some town.
ships by having shrewd trustees
have been getting not only their own
money but the road money that ought
to have gone to townships where the
trustees We're not wide awake. The
county surveyor should be the leader
in helping trustees make up their
program.
The law provides that every county
shall hold an annual meeting Of town.
ship trustees. The county surveyor is
the, one to call and conduct this meet
ing at which time the trustees should
come in and make up a program for
road work for the year ahead.
In some states and counties road
program is definitely marked out five
or six years ahead and faithfully
followed. This plan will please more
people in a county than hit-and-
miss policy can. The farmer has his
program of crop rotation. BY hav-
ing this program he gets better re-
suits and no guess-work policy to, tor
ment him. The SCHOOL teacher has
course of study to follow and by
having such program gets better
results than any slip-shod method Of
teaching would get.
A good road program, county wide,
linking together county and township,
will get more miles at less cost, and
give more satisfaction to more people
than any other thing road officials
can do.

Record is AWdrded
Official Proceedings

The Alma Record is again to be
DESIGNATED as the official city publica-
ton, having been awarded the con
tract for the publication of the official
proceedings of the city commission
and the publication of all legal notices
for the city.
The bid of The Record, submitted to
the city commission for this work,
was the low bid for the city's official
printing by $l22.01, the item IN the
bid relating to the publication of the
commission proceedings being the
lowest that the city has ever received,
which speaks well for the desire OF
The Record, not only to give It's
readers everything that they should
have in relation to the official acts OF
the city, but of its desire to serve the
city as a whole.
1t has always been one of the Gus
toms Of The Record to publish stories
on the more important acts of the city
commission. Especially has this been
true in regard to bond issues and 9TH
er such important matters relating to
the welfare of the city. In such cases
The Record has spared neither time
or space in boosting for municipal inn
provements that it believed the city
had need for. Stories Of this mature
will be continued in the future, and 1t
is the hope of The Record that IL may
continue to give first class service
to the community that it hopes to
serve in this respect.

CHANCES MADE
' IN school LAW
IMPORTANT CHANGES IN THE
SCHOOL LAWS GIVE PROMISE
or BETTER CONDITIONS.


A number Of changes in the Michi-
can school laws was made by the last
legislature. The amended statutes
have raised the standards Of public
education.
Among the more important changes
is the amendment by which virtually
every child in the state is assured
nine months school year, this being
the minimum term under the new law
for districts having an assessed valu-
alton exceeding $4,000 Districts
having an assessed valuation Of $780,
600 to $4,000 must have eight
months of school and those Of less
than $4,000 valuation and fewer than
thirty children in census but seven
months. Each one room school hav-
ing nine months school and whose
rate of taxation is SD or more per
thousand will receive 5000 per year
state aid.
There also has been a change in the
school census, the county school SUI
perintendents now being required to
take the census in towns Of less than
5000 fifteen days previous to June
LIST and to file a verified list before
the third Monday in June. This will
enable a thorough check of the CEN
sus before the fall school term opens.
Starting in September, the transfer
system, as is used in Detroit, will be
adopted throughout the state.
Other important changes are the
bringing of all. special act township
districts under the general law, and
that permitting bonds to be levied Is
per cent of value, and over a period
Of thirty years.
Other changes in the school law
are:
The law permitting the consolida-
ton Of rural schools was changed in
line with the experience Of other
states and today we have perhaps the
best consolidated school law in the
United States. The law as devised
reads: Whenever % per cent of the
school electors of each of three or
more contiguous districts petition for
the right to vote on consolidation,
they may vote as a single unit. The
machinery is simplified and all mat
ters Of friction may be carried by APP
peals to the state department Of pub
lie instruction. The state gives aid to
these districts on a basis Of 81 900 per
school and $500 per vehicle used in
transportation.
School districts are now being per-
mitted to build and furnish teachers
homes. This answers a real demand
in the northern country and also in
the consolidated school districts.
School officers are given the right
to raise money by taxation to place
school houses in safe and sanitary
condition.
BY 1925, all persons entering the
teaching profession in Michigan must
have at least one year of professional
training above the four-year high
school course. This is an act of great
importance.
An act was passed requiring chill
dren placed in boarding homes to be
placed on the school census list in
the district where the boarding home
is established, and these children are
thus entitled to attend school in that
district. This does away entirely with
the difficulty regarding the right of
these children to attend school and re-

Listen Fan, The
CanapbeHs Are Coming

Roy Campbell, Alma College ath-
letic director, was in the city over
the week end, and while here was
spreading a few optimistic rays that
did much TO pierce through the dark
clouds that have surrounded Alma
College athletics during the past two
years.
No, Campbell did not venture pre-
diction that football championship,
a basketball championship, a track
championship or a baseball champion
ship would be coming Almas way
this coming year. He did have lit
tie to say in regard to some of the
men who were expected to enter Alma
College this fall, and it indicated that
the Maroon and Cream would have
some good teams during the coming
college year Campbell, who had
four years Of athletic experience dur
ing his college days at Alma, and
who has had several years Of coach
ing experience, is hardly rash enough
to venture a claim TO a championship,
in view of the building up that must
be done in an athletic way at the col
lege.
His optimistic, hopeful spirit is
catching, however, and few who talk
ed with him, but what felt much bet
ter over the future of athletics at
Alma College. If the men under his
charge in various branches of ath-
letics happen to catch that spirit this
fall, and judging from Campbell's
past record he manages to instill it.,
Alma will be back on the athletic
map.
Campbell left Alma again the first
of the week, after looking over the
football equipment, and ordering new
material for the approaching season.
He expects to spend the week over in
the Thumb and it is more than pos
sible than an athlete or two from
that portion Of the state may be at
tracted to Alma College as a result
Of his trip.
Campbell expects to move with his
family TO Alma about September /,
and will have from then until Septem-
Der l3 to get ready for the first grid
practice, for the great fall sport.

1t Is Not Known Whether De

Lloyd Georges Proposals or

London, July 21.-The converse.

Terminated for the present without
that object having been attained.
At the last meeting held this
morning Mr.. Lloyd George submit

presented as the considered judg-
ment of himself and his cabinet as
constituting suitable grounds for a
full fledged peace parley based on
his interviews of the past week with
Mr.. Valera and Sir James Craig, Ul-
ster Premier.
These proposals it is learned COM

Whether they met with a flat re-

with him without comment for re-
view by himself and his colleagues in
the hope they might contain the
nucleus for negotiations were not
contained in the brief communique
issued today.
This read:
"Mr. Lloyd George and Mr.. De
