his whole movement because

Village To Usher
Tn New Year With
Song and Dance

The old Swiss New Year carols
written by a school master in the
early settlement days of this
area will again be heard through
the village and over the local
countryside New Years Eve as
parties of carolers continue the
old tradition.
The new year will also be
ushered in with numerous neigh
borhood house parties and mem
bers of the Circle B Squares,
western style square dance club,
will hold their annual shindig at
the town hall.
Wilhelm Amstutz, a longtime
leader of caroling groups from
the United Church of Christ, said
that plans are being made for
the traditional observance by a
group from his church. Other
groups from the Ebenezer and
First Mennonite churches are
also expected to sing the old
songs.
The songs sung locally for the
occasion were written, Mr.. Am
stutz says, by David Rogan who
taught school at the time in a
little one-room school north of
Bluffton on the College road. His
pupils were the first New Year S
Eve carolers locally. Mr.. Rogan
is a great-grandfather of MIR.
David Steiner of Lima.
The town hall square dance
will start at 8 p. m. Mr.. and
Mrs. Jim Loofbourrow are mas
ters of ceremonies and BUS"
Gratz will call the dances. A
grand march will usher in the
new year at midnight. The hall
is being decorated by the hosts
for the evening, MIR. and Mrs.
Francis Reichenbach, Mr.. and
Mrs. Dale Reichenbach and Mr..
and Mrs. Kenneth Reichenbach.

State High Court
UpnoIds Act )

In unanimous decision Mon
day, the Arkansas Supeme court
upheld Act 5, law under which
state aid of the Little Rock school
district has been withheld and
paid to other public and private
schools this year while the Little
Rock high schools are closed to
prevent the carrying out of a fed
eral court order to integrate.
The court contends that Act 5
simply means the transferring of
! student from one district to
another, accompanied by his por-
ton of the state tax fund. The
court also said in effect that
this practice has been sanctioned
for many years.
The case had been ruled on
previously in the chancery court,
and was submitted to the supreme
court just a week ago, and the
court upheld the chancery COURTS

REMEMBRANCE
This memory of our mother and
wife stays with us
Throughout the years: the way
she used to stand
Framed in the door when any OF
her band
Of family left. as long as she
could see
Their forms she gazed, as if she
seemed to be
Trying to guard-to meet some
far demand:
And then before she turned to
tasks at hand,
She breathed a little prayer in
audibly.
And now, We think, in some far
heavenly place
She watches still, and yet is not
distressed,
But rather as one who, after life's
long race,
Has found contentment in a we'll
earned rest,
There. in a peaceful dreamlike
reverie,
She waits, from earthly cares
forever free.

COURT BLOCKS
TEACHER ACTS

II the school district officials
of Arkansas are entertaining any
idea of using the teacher Acts, 10
and lis to purge the district of
teachers who do not aeauiesce to
the administrators idiocy of
court defiance in school inteera-
ton, they will have to wait I'M
til after May Il, or put them
selves in contempt of the federal
court A three-judge federal dis
flct court restrained the Lit
tie Rock school board; the Pine
Bluff school board and the board
OF trustees of the AMIN college
at Pine Bluff, and all other school
boards similarly situated.
The restraining order was tenn
porary and prohibited the enforce
ment of the Acts until May IA
Acts 10 requires all teachers in
Arkansas on public payroll to list
all organizations of which they
are members and list all contri-
buttons made to Organizations dur
ing the past five years.
Act lis makes it unlawful for
any teacher in the state to be
employed who is a member of the
National Association for the Adj
vancement of Colored People.
B. T. Shelton teacher at the
Horace Mann (closed) high school
brought a suit in federal court
here testing the constitution
atty of the acts.
Shelton contends the acts are
unconstitutional in that by
their enforcement they consti-
tute denial of freedom of asso-
citation, free speech, free press and
free assembly.
Act 10 has aroused much dis
sension among the white teach
ers in the state. The assistant
principal of Central high school
J. o. Powell, refused to sign the
affidavit, and left it with the
school board to make what it
wanted out of it.
Shelton was the first of the
Negro teachers to openly chal-
lenge the acts, and Immediately
W n into court to test
the constitutionality.
No date has been set for the
hearing. 1t is possible that the
attorneys for Shelton will return
to court to seek to extend
the injunction if it expires before
hearing can be had on tn case.
