VOTE---Y YES!

Tomorrow the residents of the Smyrna Special
School District will have opportunity to exercise
one of the most precious privileges accorded Americans
the right to vote-and it is the duty OF every man
and woman a taxpayer, as parent, or merely as
citizen to exercise this privilege.
BY this election the future education of the child
rem OF the Smyrna area will be determined. 1t is the
responsibility of every citizen whether or not he be
parent OF whether not he has children in school, to
provide todays youngsters with the best possible OPP
portunties for training to meet tomorrows problems.
True, the required additional building, changes,
and facilities call for new financial burden on the
community. However, this burden will be Eghtened
by the increased assessments forseeable in the
future building programs boom in the area due to
the predicted influx of industry and labor Part of
the cost will also be borne by the residents in the ter
tory to be added to the district when the redstrctng
of the state is completed this being anticipated IN the
next few years And with sufficient and proper facii
ties the Smyrna Special District may readily become
enlarged rather than absorbed into another district
result of the redstricting. Thus the same factors
which creating some of the demand for the addi-
tiona building will be the of assisting in the
financing of the project.
It is imperative that the citizens of the district
realize that the State of Delaware is presenting us with
a gift of S120000 to assist in this achievement How
ever if we do not match this sum with the S240000
requested in the referendum before June 80 1851 the
state appropriation will be withdrawn This would
only result in school building program beng forced
upon the community eventually by greater overcrowd
edness already halliday sessions loom as possbll-
ity in the next year two. This in turn would saddle
the taxpayers with larger financial burden as the
school district would have to finance the entire pro-
gram.
If we are to win world peace in the future, we
must provide the United States with contented pro-
gressive and sustaining people among whom are lead
ers in craftsmanship business the professions and all
walks Of life. It is your duty to contribute your bit
to this end by voting YES in the referendum elections
tomorrow
Remember, the greater the support given by the
voters to the school bond ISSUE the secure
the bonds considered hence, lower interest rate and
higher premium may be obtained when the bonds are
sold.
For security in the future, support the children of
the present by voting YES

God bless our native land, Firm
may she ever stand, Through storm
and night" Major General G. I.
Carpenter, in charge of the U. S.
Air Force Chaplains, of Washing
ton, d. c., spoke on the meaning
of shrines, stressing that the mem
ory of great men is best served if
we analyze the significance of their
background and lay hold of the
real meaning. Touching upon Mt.
Vernon, which reminds us of the
challenge of a struggling nation;
Gettysburg, where nation was
saved as union and united
America was reborn" he traced the
history of all wars. To commem-
crate those who died, the speaker
said that we must recognize first
that a memorial is founded in a
dedicated life; with radiant faith
we may build a great church, a
great world of living worthily.
These are dangerous days for our
nation, he continued, speaking of
the insidious forces that would tear
down that which we love, and ad-
monishing the people to beware of
false prophets. Reminding his
hearers that God and religion were
the founding stones of America, he
said that ''to make true memorial
we must live as Christians daily.
The Importance of consecrated iv-
ing in the home, in molding the
character of boys and girls, in the
wise and honorable use of the bal
lot, was stressed so that God may
use us to make our nation great
