Congratulations To The Victors!

Congratulations to the m wly elected s< hool board for the Polk-Lm< oln-.lohnson S c hool Corporation. The five men who came out on top of a good, clean, hard battle now are faced with a most important task <>f operating a school that involves an enrollment of over 1200 students and an economic status of several hundreds of thousands of dollars each year. Also to be considered, is the future of the school as the growing school district is beginning to crowd the schools in their present facilities This is something that must be taken into consideration in the future.

It's Not Their Fault

The announced change in the postal services offered to Walkerton an<l North Liberty will put a crimp on the convenience of the usual service one gets at these two post offices, but is not the blame of the local postmasters or offices. In fact, they do not desire the changes any more than the public will.

just how near is not yet determined. The interest in the schools and taxes for the same was < learly disclosed Tuesday in a hotly contested election that found a large turnout of voters in all three town-Wiips. especially for a primary election. The importance of the school issue and the number of those interested enough to throw their hat in the ring, was a welcome site. In respect to those elected, the public should get behind their board and assist them in any way possible They are spending their time and talents for ♦ the public in a job that is thankless.

The latest change in operation for the post offices came from the top and is a general change all over the country in further effort to curb expenses in the postal department. This is just another of the changes that the public will have to accustom themselves to. despite the fact that it does offer some inconvenience.
