With the population growth comes school enrollment growth, and Labor Day in recent years has marked the start of something big. Anyone who ventured oat on the street in the early morning hours Tuesday was well aware of the change. Before we had driven a block we thought we were going to be driven off the road either by high spirited older teen-agers eager to "get goin" or by younger, non- Valley View At Valley View*chool, there are 521 students who will be taught by a full time faculty of twenty and by seven part time teachers.

The corner of Green and Elm found the same slow moving youngsters leisurely heeding the walk signs. We are never sure whether their reluctance to get to the other side of the street is pure laziness or a desire to antagonize drivers turning the corner, Driving a few blocks farther, we had almost come to the conclusion that we would have to put up our strongest armor if we intended to compete with the obstreperous younger generation for the next nine months. But just then we approached one of the faithful crossing guards who was guiding a little one safely across the busy high­ way. What a satisfaction, we thought in fulfilling such a big responsibility. Then it occurred to us that kids haven't really changed so much. The youngest were always gentle and shy - well, most of them -- in our time, and they still are. And the teen­ agers? Some of them are bold, to be sure, and if we recall honestly, they probably were in our school days also. The difference seems to be in the number with whom we must compete today. Sometimes the enormity of the whole thing overwhelms us and it's then that we place all these youngsters into one class, YOUNGSTER DARTS IN FRONT OF CAR (Continued from page 1) the road at a fast speed, traveling in the middle of the road.

Maybe if we keep this in mind, the year ahead will be a bit more pleasant for all con­ cerned. K.A.F. MARGARET BLAKE Miss Margaret Blake, 88, died in St. Ann's home, Techny, 111., Monday, Sept. 3.
