Committee For Betterment
OF MunSon School

MuCIl VI lllS ldlh dI OuIlu NIUIl-
son this past weekend center
ed on the recent letter distribu-
ted by the aforementioned COM
mittee to the people Of Mum
son. This letter explained the
committee, it's work and t S
objectiveS. The findings of its
subcommittee were reiterated
a. The school population in the
MunSon school has almost tripl-
ed in the past 8 years. b. The
population of the township is
increasing at a rate far above
the state average. C. Our total
tax rate is the lowest in the
county. d. The total tax rate
will still be one of the lowest
if the bond issue is passed. e.
Present building and site are
far below state requirements
for schools. f. Spending a large
amount of tax money on the
present site would be a bad
investment. In only a f e "
years rapid growth of our pop.
ulation would force abandon
ment of the present site. Al
a public meeting on December
4, 1858, a resolution was a
dopted advocating the follow
ing: A new school on a new
location and conversion of the
old school to a town hall. This
letter had many other goo c
points and it is suggested thai
if you did not receive a copy
of it that you contact Margaret
Harris, 5-5166, she'll see thai
