SCHOOL EXPENDITURES
SINCE CONSOLIDATION, 1915

The discussion in reference to the
tax question has reached such stage
that many things are being said that
cali for a statement Of facts In refer.
ence to the budget OF the Alpine
School District. Most OF us appreci.
ate that this discussion comes from
the farmers who are being driven al
most to desperation as q result OF
the unfairness OF our present taxing
system. To say the least our present
system Of taxation Is ancient. Tan.
gIble property is no longer measure
OF the ability to bear the burdens Of
taxation. Each year II seems that
more are escaping. And as more
escape the burden Is increased on the
farms. There is no question but
what some property Is being taxed
more than one hundred per cent
above what It was taxed In 1915 and
this brings me to the point Of begin
ming.
The following is q statement Of the
amount OF money spent each year
since 1915 for the maintenance OF
American Fork citizen. [volume] (American Fork, Utah) 1912-1979, 1922-04-15

Total. 900
These expenditures have been made
as result Of the solicitation OF the
patrons who are still petitioning that
further Improvement be made.
The above statement Is intended to
show that we are doing some things
and enjoying some privileges that We
were not enjoying previously. Practi-
cially all of the boys and girls go to
high school now In our district. We
can decrease our expense in this
branch of school work by changing
the nature OF the work or by provid.
Ing teachers for a limited number Of
students.
II Is impossible to reduce the inter
est and sinking fund. The increased
attendance. due to the better health
OF the children and to their being
more closely checked up by the at
tendance officer justifies the expendi-
ture In this line.
During the past four years we have
made an extra effort to furnish run.
ming water at each school. All OF the
schools except Highland have thus
been provided. And Highland and
Fairfield are the only, schools In the
Alpine School District without electric
lights.
We can do without electric lights
and the water at the schools Just the
same as we can at home. We can DO
without them. but we do not want to
so long as we can pay for them. You
know II is hard to go back to heating
all OF the water for the family In a
tea kettle on top OF the stove after
we have once had the water Jacket
and tank OF hot water.
Further, there are enough inexperi'
enced teachers In our own district to
supply more than one third Of our
schools. These young teachers can be
employed for about Seven Hundred
Dollars year. Experienced teach.
ers can secure about Twelve Hundred
Dollars. Would II be wise to place
our children In the care OF these young
people, good as they are. when expert
enced teachers are availablef
These are some OF the questions the
! Superintendent and the Board OF
Education find themselves conJuring
with these fine spring days.
| We want to assure the patrons and
the tax payers that what Is done will
be In our judgment that which will be
for the best interest OF the boys and
girls.

A FINE SUGGESTION.

THE Rotary club has taken for
ward step in seeking to have
business sections of the city so mark
ed that indiscriminate automobile
parking will stop.
1t is time that the streets in Amer
icus were MADE safe for the trav-
cling public When cars are allowed
to rest at any angle, and anywhere,
there is confusion that will in
evitably lead to accidents.
The suggestion for a traffic Off
Ger to curtail speeding on residential
streets is fine one. But why con-
fine it to one street. There are
speed laws in Americas. Enforce
them on all streets and at all times
1t is only when the casual speed
er sees the habitual speeder getting
away with his reckless driving, that
he too becomes a chronic violator OF
the law.
A few wholesome examples would
put stop to recklessness here.

couldn't help saying. You're not

At this the Rooster looked down
at himself in establishment, and no
sooner had his eyes spied his choco-
late feathers than he let out a
screech like a fire-whistle and a fog
horn rolled into one.

A THOUGHT FOR TO-DAY.
EDITORIAL
THE DEPLETED EGG MARKET.

THE DEPLETED EGG MARKET.
THERE is one industry, the real
worth Of which has yet to be
recognized in this county, and that
is the production of eggs for whole
sale market.
1t is a fact that Sumter farmers
pans get their eggs in Atlanta as
soon as farmers living within a few
miles of the Gate City, thus meeting
competition on an even basis at the
outset.
The country here is adapted to
chicken raising and egg production.
1t has come to the attention of this
paper that a market exists, prac-
tically unlimited, for eggs in At
lsnta.
There is a market for pure white
selected eggs, not over two days old.
There is also a premium on them of
about 10 cents a dozen. Selected
white eggs from Tennessee are pur-
chased because there are not enough
eggs raised in this state to meet the
requirements. These eggs are bring
ing 80 to 80 cents per dozen whole
sale.
This looks like a fine opportuni-
ty for some of Sumter's enterprising
farm folks to get in on the ground
floor. This paper will be glad TO
furnish other information as to this
market if any of the Sumter farm
ess are interested. One of the larg.
est retail grocers in the South has
written the Times Recorder to know
if there are eggs in this community
which could be bought every week
in the year, A contract awaits the
farmer who can produce the goods

THE COMING SPORT.

rs golf to take the place of base
ball as our foremost national
sport?
You may scott at the suggestion.
But sporting goods manufacturers
estimate that at least 100000
Americans are golfers.
And that is only a beginning. Any
9ne with his eyes open realizes that
golf craze is sweeping the coun-
try like prairie fires. In popularity,
golf is growing far faster than base
bali grew in its early days.
For every one that plays golf,
there are five who would be playing
il they could.
tn the main, golf is still a rich
mans game. The price of getting
iito good golf club is prohibitive
for the average man-and usually
Intentionally so, to keep the mem
bership exclusive"
Many cities have municipal golf
courses, but not enough of them. A
player generally has to stand in line
for hours before he can drive off.
And, while pfodding from hole to
hole, he finds the course so crowded
that it's like being in shrapnel bar
rage.
The shortage of golf courses for
the person Of moderate means drives
home the principle that America has
made practically no provisions for re-
irrational sports for the people.
If golf ever does dethrone base
ball, it will be a good thing for the
national health.
The baseballgfA rarely plays the
game himself. He sits and watches

professionals play. For this reason.
balesball in America is no longer
a sport. 1t is form of theatricals.
You do not, however, find golf en-
thusiasts sitting back and watching
other players-eXcept an occasional
star. The golfer is not grandstand
loafer. He gets out and plays the
game himself.
Golf sometimes is sneered at as
namby-pamby game, but only by
people whose knowledge of it is linn
tied to observation from a passing
auto. Carried to extremes, golf is
a dangerously violent sport. You
have noticed lately, the increasing
number of men who are falling dead
of heart failure on golf courses.
In moderation, as an exercise, golf
Is the most scientific sport ever de-
vised. 1t combines the benefits of
long-distance walking with the swing
ing-on-the-ball that brings nearly ev-
cry muscle of the body into play.
The connection between golf and
the proverbial health of the Scotch
may be closer than any of us dream.
Good golf courses, available to
the public at low cost, are needed
as much as good roads-possibly
more. Golf may be the magic tonic for
civilizations ills caused by lack of
exercise. 1t may also prove to be
the safety valve for the high ner-
vous tension that is gripping so many
of us.
