-- SOOSOOSeMm MMM» By Vuwi Mb \Ai "March of Dimes" is probably las greatest story of the week. There »re still headlines of wndi,1 initer and death, but most o€ these tragedies are beyond our individual help. Kot so with the infantile paralysis victims. Just- as great tornadoes strike leaving the debris far collection and rehabilitation, fo ffcb crippler strikes and moves on. leaving its victims twisted and blighted. However, there is much that can be done, but like all re^ MMHtation, it taaas much money, months, courage and patience ve. We sincerely hope that never for mluiy and k> one of yours, nor for anyone you love will that dread word "polio" be named in diagnosis. However, polio is no respeeteT of persons. Children on isolated farms are stricken, children^ in ^wls^thildren^injwvertyluxury aartw every advantage. No one yet knows how it is spread, nor how to control that spread. There is available only the care and therapy AFTER the disease has struck, and, as the therapy is a long and costly process, it would be beyond the means of most famil'ea without the "March of Dimes." With this silver flood, all children are equ:tl, and if it is medically mnd physically possible, they all will walk again. The dimes you conl.-ibute are your purchase of an insurance p >'.i :y, a C»licy we hope you need never colct on, but if yon have to--it will pay off. Small Barbara Sellek of our dis-, \ -V '.

At an emergency meeting of tilt school board last week, a motion was made and carried that an attempt to find suitable quarters for classes to meet in would be made, and also a new teacher would be found, if possible, to assist the present teachers with their herculean burden. Our present school board tins* don? a wonderful job in providing all the facilities possible for the children, operating almost constantly beyond their budget. The district has grown so much more rapidly than even the most far-sighted could possible visualize. Mel Sellek, appinted to find a teacher, persuaded Mrs. Jane Richards of Lookout Point to fill the breach, at least temporarily. Mrs. Richards formerly a teacher in the exclusive Starrett School for Girls, in Chicago, will be a capable instructor. Kenneth Cristy, will endeavor to find quarters in which a school room can be set up. In the mean time, Mrs. Richards will assist in teaching in the present schoolhouse, holding her classes on the stage at the end if the upstairs room.

This sugar content •aries widely with the season and with the individual tree and its location. Soil, weather, moisture and the leaf crown of the preceding year all contribute to .the amount of sap and its sugar concentration. It takes from 25 to 50 gallons of sap to produce a gallon of syrup, and a tree will yield only from 40 to 20 gallons of sap in a season.
