POPPIES BRING AID TO WAR DISABLED

How disabled veterans of both wars are aided by Poppy Day contributions was described to- day by Mrs. Stewart, Poppy Chairman of Seward Unit of the American Legion Auxiliary, as the auxiliary continued prepara- tions for the observance of Pop- py Day here on Saturday, May 20.
 "The dimes, quarters and dol lars which people contribute in exchange for their memorial poppies form the backbone of the financial support for the ex- tensive activities carried out constantly by the Auxiliary for the welfare of the disabled vet erans. If it were not for the gen. erosity of the millions who wear the little red poppy each year in memory of the war dead, the many services of Auxiliary to the living victims of the two wars could not be carried out.
 Poppy Day contributions are used to bring comfort and cheer to disabled veterans in the hos pitals. They provide aid for dis abled men outside of the hos pitals who are having difficult ties in reestablishing themselves economically. They help care for the children of disabled veterans while the veterans are undergo ing hospital treatment. They pay the wages which mean so much to the veterans who make the peoples. The money collected on Poppy Day by the little girls who are members of the Seward Brownie troop, the teen age boys, and the willing workers of the Auxiliary, works for the disabled veterans throughout the year"
 Volunteer workers will have their headquarters at Seward Trading Co. store on May 20, for the distribution of the poppies.

SANATORIUM NURSE TELLS OF VOYAGES TO FAR EAST

Miss Caroline Clark, who re- turned to her duties as nurse at the Seward Sanatorium a month ago, is getting over the sea legs she acquired from three months of sea duty.
 Miss Clark left the Seward Sanatorium last November and visited her family in South Bend, Washington. She was all packed to return to Alaska when she was asked if she would like the position of nurse aboard the President liner General w. H. Gordon, the ship which had picked up the refugees at Tientsin.
 Her first voyage, which start ed from San Francisco January 13, took her to Honolulu, Yoko- hama, Manila, Hongkong and then returned to the states by retracing the route. The ship laid over in Hongkong for four days waiting for permission from the Communists to proceed to Shanghai. The permission was never received so the ship turned about without reaching that Chinese port.
 On the second trip, Miss Clark relates that many of the passen- gers were Japanese from the United States and Honolulu go- ing to Japan to see the cherry festival which has been resumed since the war.
 After the second trip, Miss Clark resigned from the General w. H. Gordon and returned to Alaska. She had enjoyed the sea duty, but, as she said, she had always wanted to work aboard ship and now she had done it and gotten it out of her system. She likes Alaska best.

SPEEDl SPEED! SPEEDI

In checking automobile fatalities lists for 1946 and 1947, it appears that about 33,OO0 people died in each of the two years on city streets or rural roads. For every one killed the average runs to 35 in- jured, of whom one in 12 retains permanent impairment. The total from 1923 to 1948 is appalling: 750,- 900 dead and more than 25,000, 900 wounded in the Battle of the High ways.
 The reason behind a highway death is not always simple. A num- Der of factors may combine at the wrong split second. But the figures in the breakdown are clear. For ex- ample, in 1946, seven out of every 100 drivers did not have the right of way; nine out of every 100 were definitely under the influence of alcohol; eleven out of every 100 were driving on the wrong side of the road.
 Speed! No fewer than 3l out of every 100 were going too fast when it happened. Of these, 2l were ex- ceeding posted speed limits. The ten other were within legal rights but not within the bounds of con- mon sense, considering weather conditions and the state of the road
 Speed is the largest single killer by wide margin. The driver with whether he knows it or not, is often at the wheel of a car which is et- fectively out of his control, if an emergency arises. At 60 miles all hour, he is travelling 88 feet a sec ond. A few moments of inattention or drowsiness, the unexpected ap- pearance of a pedestrian or another car, a turn in the road which de- velops into a sharp curve-and, if he has passed the limit of control. he finds himself face to face with death for himself or somebody else One question not answered in the reports or tabulated in the final figures is: Where was the fast driver going and why did he have to get there so quickly? It seems to be taken for granted that getting from one place to another in the shortest possible time justifies the killing of 92 victims day and the injury of 5000 others Why?
 Speed can be controlled at the ! critical hours only by the driver himself His own good sense and judgment have to tell him that he is not at the wheel of any play thing. He is the captain in com mand of a deadly engine of de- struction. By never losing sight of | this fact. the American who drives a car could help to save 10000 lives a year-and very possibly save him. self from a rapid ride to his own funeral.

County Finances
Excellent Shane
For Rest OF 1850
Appropriations
Made For Each
Sub-Department

Upon the recommendation of
Auditor Jack Wilson, the county
commissioners made several ap-
preparations this week which are
designed to carry all depart
ments until January 1, 1851.
Appropriations set UP at the
beginning of the present fiscal
year were, in most cases, con-
servative. At this time the board
and the county auditor endeav-
ored to keep all appropriations
low in order that the county
could build a surplus in the var
ious funds. The additional al
lowances made last week were
made following a recheck of the
county's financial system recent
ly by the auditor. At that time
it will be remembered that the
county had over $4,000 in the
general and road and bridge
funds.
The additional allowances
made by the commissioners were
repairs to court house and jail,
$500; furniture and fixtures for
court house and Jail, 5000; meals
for prisoners at county Jail, $3.50;
stationery and supplies for aud
itor, $500; premiums for insur-
ance on buildings and equip
ment, 5000; premiums for offic-
ials bonds, etc, $3.50; rabies
treatment, 500.
Fuel and light for court house,
$500; telephone service, $500;
other auditors expenses, $50;
other commissioners expenses,
$3.50; equipment for commits
sioners' auto, $l00; maintenance
of county home, $500; farm sup
plies for county home, S400;
other county home expense, $50
Stationery and supplies for
engineer, $50; other engineers
expense, $500; stationery and
supplies for engineer, $3.50; ma
terial for maintenance, $4,000.

Hot Lunch Project
Will Start, Sent. 3

/ The Caldwell school hot lunch
project will begin on the open
ing day of school, Tuesday, Sept
5, according to an announcement
made today by Mrs. Charles
Evilsizer, supervisor, who will be
rounding out her 9th year in this
capacity.
Assisting Mrs. Evilsizer this
year will be Mrs. John Parks,
Mrs. George Rice, Mrs. Mae
Gardner and Mrs. Harry Davis.
The hot lunch will be served
this year, as in the past, for 10
cents per day. They will feed an
average of 275 to 800 students
each day.
1t is believed this number will
increase since many of the
Macksburg students will probab-
ly take advantage of the hot
meal at noon.

Revocation 0f
School Charter
Voids Contracts
State Rules On
Macksburg School
Teaching Problem

The state department of edu-
cations revocation of the Macks-
burg high school charter, effec-
tive last June 80, has automati-
cally resulted in the severing of
the contracts of Supt. Ray L.
Curtis and A. G.. Wharton, it was
learned here Saturday.
At an adjourned meeting of
the Aurelius township board of
education Aug. %, Victor Neely,
Everett Parks and H. A. Howard,
board members, declared all con-
tracts for high school teachers
void. The board also voted to dis
continue the operation of the
high school as requested by the
state department of education
and designated Caldwell high
school as the high school which
Macksburg students shall attend.
Transportation to and from the
school will be furnished by the
Aurelius board of education.
John w. Kraps, veter n
teacher in the Macksburg grade
school, is expected to be ap-
pointed as acting principal of the
elementary school, according to
County Supt. c. L. McMahan.
Other elementary teachers at the
school include Edith Mcfarland,
Mrs. A. G. Wharton and Lucy
Howiler.
Although every effort has been
made to retain the Macksburg
high school, all have failed. 1t
had been hoped that Gov. Frank
J. Lausche might intercede by
over-ruling the state department
of educations order revoking the
school charter. The governor re-
fused to intercede. Last reports
concerning efforts of Macksburg
residents and citizens of sur
rounding areas to raise $4,000
to be used toward purchasing
equipment and rehabilitating the
school until its standards were
satisfactory to the state depart
ment of education, showed that
about $4,000 had been contri.
buted.
Reasons given for the revoca-
ton of the schools charter last
Feb. 16, were: too small enroll
ment to offer a satisfactory pro-
gram; financial resources of the
community offered very little
chance of improvement; schoo.
library below standard; program
of students and Institutional ma
terial in several departments be-
low a desirable level; program OF
J studies limited; building entirely
unsatisfactory for operation of g
grade and high school program
