SCHOOL CHILDREN RULING
State Board Makes New Ruling
for Children Leaving School Buses

The State Board of Education
adopted a rule at a recent meeting
that children should go around the
front of the buses in leaving, when
they live across the road from a
bus stop. This ruling went into
effect about January 8, and it is
entirely the ruling of the State
Board. Parents of numerous chill
dren are objecting to the new rule,
but Mr.. Davidson wishes all par
ents to know that he is merely fol-
lowing instructions from the
board. The local bus system has
had a perfect record for the fif-
teen years Of its operation, and the
state school bus system leads the
nation with its safety record. This
accounts for the objection to the
new ruling, but it will be enforced
by all the drivers in the future.
