Christmas Workshop.
Here's another date to hold
open. Nov. Is. This will be All

TWO-MILL LEVY

This article will be the last con-
cerning the two-mill levy before
election day.
In previous articles, l have men
toned two sources of revenue, To-
cal taxes and money received
through the State Foundation Pro-
gram. There is one other source
of income and that is Federal as
Sistance During the past few
years, we have been able to parti
cipate in program known as Fed
eral Assistance to Federally AT
fected Areas. A Federally Affect
ed Area is one in which many of
the parents of the school children
either live on or work on federal
property; for example, we have
both Erie Gardens and Erie Ord
nance Depot. Last year we re-
ceived a sum of $4,000 from the
federal government. We receive
$151.00 for each child whose par
ents live on and work on federal
property. For child whose par
ent lives on but does not work on
federal property, we receive
$3.50. the same amount, $3.50,
is received for a child whose par
ent works On but does not live on
federal property. Should the time
come when the government dis
poses of Erie Gardens and it is no
longer federal property, the rev.
enue received on that basis will be
cut in half. Perhaps this one item
is not of too much Importance to
the average voter. am only using
it to show that since our income
is not guaranteed, and in view of
the facts that our enrolment is
increasing and that operating costs
are going up, we must find addi-
tional funds. / mentioned last
week that eight mills for operat-
ing purposes was voted to become
effective IN 1881 and that IN 1852
the eight mills were reduced to
six because of 25 per cent in
crease in valuation. l have also
pointed out that since 1851 there
has been an increase of 36 per
cent in operating costs and that
each year during this time there
has been an increase in enrolment
of approximately 100.
Expenses Increase But Not
The School Levy
Perhaps you have been wonder
ing how it has been possible to
carry on the normal operations of
the school without increasing the
tax return even though costs have
been rising. / wish to explain

rather briefly. First, each two
years the state legislation revises
the State Foundation Program
and in 1851 and 1858 the amount
of state money was increased.
Second-increased tuition. Not
only has the number of tuition
students increased but with rising
costs the tuition rate has gone up.
Third-an increase in Federal AS
SiStance money. In 1852, we re-
ceived approximately SILL 900. Dur
ing the calendar year 1854, we
have received approximately $685.
900.
With these increases, howeves,
our anticipated income will fall
about $4,000 short of covering
the 1855 budget. Please remember
these facts: Your Board of Educa-
ton has not been eXtravagant.
The cost of education in Port
Clinton is lower than that of the
135 cities and rs exempted vil-
lagos in Ohio. Our total tax re-
turn is several mills lower than
the average of the cities and
exempted villages in Ohio and the
same is true of the tax rate for
schools.
Booklets have been prepared
and will be brought home by the
school children. Please read them
carefully. You will find there a
more detailed explanation. | am
sure that you are willing to sup
port a good school system. Your
Board of Education, through the
Superintendent, has attempted to
give you the facts. The answer is
up to you. WILL YOU VOTE?

levy is must"

Poem Of 25 Years
Ago Timely Today

When the Golden Anniversary
of Light was celebrated through
out the world 25 years ago, The
News printed a poem Light More
Light" which the author of it's
Scrambled Thoughts" column
wrote especially for the occasion.
The author of the poem was
Mrs. Anna Hurrell, who now com
oines teaching career with a reg
ular shift at the telephone office.
But the poem she penned Is years
ago for her News column is as apt
today, in Lights Diamond Jubilee,
as 1t was then:
Light More Light
A cry rang down the dim aiSles of
wallesS Time,
Reverberating through the halls
of wealth and power
And echoed, where dim shadows
quickly loom and lower
In humble home of labor, through
every cline.
The cry rang in the heart and
brain of Edison
Who let not meaningless echo con-
fuse the will
But set himself task of thought
and toll, until
The cry was answered and there
was when all was done,
Light more light.
Anna Hurrell
