SHOP AT HOME SCHOOL BOARD WRESTLES WITH MOHEY PROBLEM Harrison Votes To Present Another Referendum Soon The Harrison Dist. 36 school board voted to hold another referendum before September, to get new funds to put the school on a paying basis. Before the election, the board will detail steps that it believes necessary to take if the referendum fails. After nearly five hours of detailed study of financial records, the board found itself facing three possible courses of direction. One was to adopt a budget-cutting program that would involve some parts of the education program. The second was to maintain the status quo and adopt a policy of deficit financing to make up the difference between income and costs. Three was to hold another election before the new school year. After prolonged and sometimes heated discussion during which motions were made, some defeated and others withdrawn, a motion by Joseph Sullivan, seconded by Mrs. Jay Hansen, got through. This called for the board to speel out to the community before the election details of the financial problem, items that would be cut and extra charges that would be made. This would give the community a chance to express itself at the polls. If the referendum fails, then the budget cuts and assessments would be put into effect. Voting in favor of the motion were Dr. S. L. Ruggero, William Cristy, Sullivan and Mrs. Hansen. Against, Dr. Raymond H. Watkins and Henry C. S e t z l e r . A b s t a i n i n g , W i l b u r Haak. This motion came after one presented by Watkins and seconded by Setzler to cut the budget and make special assessments without holding a referendum for at least a year. A motorist is usually wrong No firm decisions were reachwhen he passes on the righ# ed on items and services that would be cut pending further board consideration. The proposals will be announced and talked publicly before the referendum. Harrison closed the current year with a total expense of $215,981 and total estimated income of $198,687, a difference of $17,295. Whether this can be called a deficit is a matter of viewpoint.

But it is using tax money received this spring, plus $7,000 borrowed on warrants, to clean up current bills. Usually tax moneys received now are not used until the new year. The estimated budget for the 1963-64 year is $226,000, including salaries of two added teachers, compared with possible income of $210,654, a difference of $15,346. It was futher estimated that the most that could be cut from the budget without harm to education and transportation would be $2,500 -- cuts above this level would begin to bite into programs and activities that not all board members can agree should be Referendums to be presented are at the same levels as before --an increase of 21 cents in the education fund and 8 cents in the transportation fund per $100 of assessed valuation. The tax rates, not changed in nearly 10 years, would go from 96 cents to $1.17 for education, and from 2 cents to 10 cents for transportation. The yield would be about $25,00 per year in new funds. Over a period of three to four years this would wipe out deficits and put the school district on a balanced budget -- assuming the two new teachers are added and no educational or transportation programs as they now exist are cut, or special assessments added. Supt. Merl F. Thomas made a fervent plea for the board to call for another referendum in the hope it will be passed by the community. Thomas is on record favoring the referendum and urging the public to support them, especially parents with children in, or soon to be in school. If not this, then he urged a policy of deficit financing rather than harm educational standards which are recognized as being above average for a school of Harrison's size in a small community having a low level of assessed valuation.

I I smart-cuts for women I by Maggie Lovewell I It's practically impossible TO KEEP COOL these hot days, what with the kids and house and all, but here are some tips, that may help: Moist facecloths, put in plastic bags and chilled, will soothe hot brows of over-playing children when they come dashing in. And say, give them (and you, to) a frosty glass of fruit juice over ice (better than too much pop). An "Arctic Pause" at the Open refrigerator door will help, too. While there, put cologne in refrigerator. There's nothing more divine than splashing on its cool fragrance at odd moments. Or chill astringent lotion and give yourself a breezy facial toward nightfall. One more--while drying your hair, set on "cool." PICTURE HANGING TIP: Put clear tape over wall where you drive in nail or hook. Prevents plaster chipping. Make a SANDBOX FOR THE KIDS with an old tractor tire filled with sand. No sharp corners or nasty splinters.... can even paint tire as you like. I just didn't believe my sister when she said she MENDED CRACKED EGGS! Sl» seals them with one of the new like-magic mending tapes before refrigerating. Egg stays fresh 'til you use it. Same tape comes in handy when you want to use just the egg white. Punch small hole in each end, blow out white, cover hole with tape. Put yolk back in refrigerator until needed. SMART-CUT: WHEN machine- washing, rinse out that soapy film by adding Vz cup of vinegar during the last rinse cycle. For kids' summer cookoutf, TOASTED MARSHMALLOWfll are a must--and an even more welcome treat when you add Crunchy Coatings. Arrange bowls or paper cups near fire filled with syrupy glazes and favorite crunchy coatings--one, two, or lots! Just toast marshmallows soft and golden brown --then dip into glaze (you'll like maple or chocolate syrup, honey too)--then dip into coating (try coconut or chopped nuts, graham cracker crumbe, or thing up your own tastiea) --yummy! (Watch for Maggie every week!)
