Rapid growth, without relating the tax base to the 'child base," has caught many communities short of classrooms, and with no source of revenue for the construction and operation of additional schools. The location of schools, as the location of other public facilities, is basic to community stability. In planning for schools, the child population of the future lather than the present must be provided for, based upon a good overall plan of school districts and attendance units, and a workable financing program.

Everytime he read an ad about how to relieve it, he bought a different patent medicine. He hated radio and television because the announcers reminded him of his stomach-aches. He tried their remedies, too. but still suffered. He worried, because he thought he might have ulcers. One day he said to himself, "I will consult a physician." The physician examined him, prescribed the particular medicine that could help him most, and he got better. Moral -- Wasn't he the foolish one to wait so long before consulting his physician?

Speaking of birthdays, for her third birthday, which was Nov. 25. Diane Noah and friends celebrated on the twenty- first with a party at home. There were an even dozen children present ranging from four weeks to five years of age. The majority of the kids enjoyed the usual party goodies and spent the rest of the time pla?^ ing and having a good time. The following families were represented by the younger set, Bott, Jeseki, Kanter, Lasnek, Yoight and Von Oepen. .What brave mothers to attempt a party for so many of that age group!

For instance, a friend recently objected to my choice of a glass of beer with supper. When I asked him why, he replied: "I've had only coffee with my dinner for the last twenty years." Now that's not only silly--it's intolerant too. Neighbors ought to tend to the "eggs in their own baskets."
