Letters to the Editor

Dear John:
TURN OUT THE RAScALS"
Under this battle cry, the lit
tie people all over the country
are flexing the muscles of de-
mocracy to demonstrate that
honesty, courtesy and dignity
are the pillars of good govern
ment.
1t is easy to exult over the
vistories and forget the little
wars that have to be won in our
own back yard. Here in Mum
son township, the school board
is asking us to approve a tax
levy that will increase our tax
es almost 100 per cent. If this
would provide better schools or
improved facilities for our chill
dren everyone would approve.
But this levy is being requested
to cover a deficit created by our
School Boards failure to adjust
the budget to the diminished
grant from the State. The levy
is to perpetuate the creaking,
one room system we have in
Munson, which is the worst in
the county.
Munson, alone, among the
townships suffered a decline in
enrolment. No member of the
school board made any effort
to talk with dissatisfied parents
who would not suffer their chill
dren to attend the Munson
school. When enrolment de-
clined to a two teacher level,
the School Board would not
eliminate a third teacher as di-
rected by the State. Now we
are asked to increase our taxes
to allow the Board to continue
on its autocritic way.
How long will the little peo-
pie of our township submit to

arriving. Then it was that sher-

presented a McNish check for

here. The employees were sus-
picious, and engaged the man
in conversation, while the sher-
ifs office was notified. Depu-
ties Carl Kronk and Stanley

companion and two girls aged
II and 19 of Kentucky. The

 People all over the country wrote words of encouragement last March when Miss Tennyson told a reporter that I'm not frightened at all. I've known all my life that death was inevit- able
 After the flood of letters, she remarked that people exclaim over how calmly I'm taking it.
 T look at them and think, well gee. you might die before I do.' A lct of people who go out for a afternoon ride are talk ing a greater chance than l am.
 Miss Tennyson was a secretary in Fairbanks, Alaska, medical clinic when she discovered she had cancer
 She didn't dwell on the future'
