OUR AMBULANCE" SERVICE ? /?

The Ambulance service in Sidney, the last several
months, is a situation that the people should be ashamed
of, and it seems that the condition warrants serious c~onsidera-
ton. At the present, the dollar seems to be the topic. Can't
a bond issue be presented to the public to vote on-what is
the most impOrtant-a few dollars or an ambulance service?
1t can not be rectified at this time by our county ,as the
county commissioners are handicapped with the present law.
Possibly the legislature will change, or amend, the law which
would give counties power to handle such a ~predicament.
How would it seem to be taken to the hospital in a
hearse? Hope I never have the experience; A rather
frightening thought. Isn't it? Well, the present Ambulance"
service-if riding in a hearse is a s~ervice-amounts to
just that.
There was an argument presented that it was not right
for a Funeral Director to make ambulance calls, as it was
depressing for the family and the sick person. If making
an ambulance call by the Funeral Director, now in a hearse,
is more consoing-wel than I have lost my sense of under
standing.
1t seems that if a person that is i'll, or a person that had
an accident, if not in shock would certainly go into shock
when showed into a hearse.
What can be done about the situation? If clubs and
organizations, as well as individuals, would discuss this i'm
portant situation a solution may come to light. 1t deserves
some serious thought.
Surely Sidney is big enough to have regular ambulance
service. Not just any kind Of a vehicle that will haul our
loved ones to a hospital. Certainly NOT A HEARSE.

than actual. The White House grounds, in the heart of Washing
ton, are carried on the books at $1,000. If they were for sale, the
price would be several millions.
All federal government buildings and land in Washington are
valued at $748yOOO0OO, excluding Capitol Hill. The Capitol, it's
office buildings, garages, power plant, Supreme Court building,
and other sundry pieces of real estate are worth 1857, 100000.
Truly, government has become "big" business.
% STARLINGS GO WEST-Washngton has long been famed
for its millions of starlngs, which nightly darken the skies as
they fly back to their roosts on nearly every window ledge and
cornice in the capital. The government and private individuals
have spent millions of dollars and much brainpower in a futile
effort to dispense the messy pests.
Now, a Midwest congressman reports that the star1ngs have
begun to migrate to rural areas in Indiana and elsewhere and
are plaguing farmers with their enormous appettes.
Seeking a solution for his farmer constituents. the congress-
man took his problem to the Fish and Wildlife service, where he
learned what Washingtonians have long known-no one has
found a practical solution. In fact, the best news Washing
tonians have received on the starting front in many years is the
congressman's report that the birds are heading West.
o INSTANT MAH-When the Post Office department begins
its experiments with instant mail delivery via electronic fac
Smile sometime this year, one of the new headaches it will
create is what to do with the original mail after
it has been transmitted. Irssort MrI
If the system should ever come into general
use, it would raise the question of what to do brings Ne"
with hundreds of millions of pieces of mail daily. Problem
Should they be filed in post offices? Or should
they be destroyed after they have been photocopied? Or should
the post office attempt to deliver the letters by rgular mail as
confirmation of the wire-transmitted copy?
The Post Office doesn't have any answers yet. However. a Iot
OF questions are arising, some legal, some personal to senders
and receivers, and even some concerning what's to become Of

Assign Chores To Boy
Who Dawdles Mentally

ing to this boy about what he
should and should not do i'm
school. Better leave that up to
his teacher.
Family Regulations
But at home you might do
much good if you hold him
strictly to a few family regu-
lations, like appearing at meals
on time and well-groomed. Set
some penalties. If he doesn't
conform, don't talk, jaw and
scold-act.
It is important that he have
a few regular chores that he
can't escape, and must do on
time. A good penalty is to re-
quire him to sit unamused for
a half hour where you can see
him.
Set Time Limit
On nights before school see
that he is home when the
street lights appear and goes
promptly at his homework.
AS you help him, be very calm
and serene; if you can't be, en-
ploy a teacher to work with
him half an hour an evening.
If he has learned to do definite
chores without dawdling, he
might learn also to stick to his
mental jobs.

A. At home, persuade him to
do all his writing only when
you can be with him. Then, in
a serene manner, say to him, as
you guide him.; 'This is the
way to do it."
No magic about it; just pa
thence and persistence.

LATELY I've received many
letters about the child who is
earning average marks, but is
reported by his parents and
teacher to have very poor habits
of mental work. Both say he is
able to achieve much more.
A Massachusetts, mother
writes of her son, nine:
"He is now in the fourth
grade after going through his
first three years of school with
average marks. The marks were
average because he spends a
good deal of his schooltime
'daydreaming', as his past three
teachers have said, or being
lazy, as his present teacher
says.
Aware of Problem
II have been aware of this
problem through his school
years and have had many par
ent-teacher discussions, all to
no avail. All teachers agree that
he is capable of doing his work
but, unless they are constantly
pushing and prodding him, he
won't. Our school is very over
crowded and teachers are Just
not able to do this.
HE has had homework this
year and does it as long as I
am sitting by his side, but if I
should leave he starts browsing
through his dictionary, tapping
his pencil or anything else he
might feel like doing. He has
definitely not established good
work habits, and I am afraid
that he will fall behind this
year if he continues in this
manner.
Not "SIOw" Mentally
HE has no reading problem
and does very we'll in math and
spelling when the spirit moves
him, so I don't think he is
Slow mentally"
My reply, in part:
I don't believe you can hope
to do very much by just talk

N CLAIM BARRED

The Administration has no in
tention of granting the request of
Chancellor Adenauer for compen-
sation for German property seiz-
ed here during World War II,
officials have stated.
The Administration, it was add
ed, was not disposed to meet the
German request for payment Of
the so-called "vested" assets. And,
they added, even if it were so
disposed, it knows that a bill for
compensation would not have a
chance of passage in Congress.
