I will endeavor to explain some of my goals for the district. It is stated, “the job of a school board if to provide physical facilities and staff members So insure adequate and equal educational opportunities for all tfte children of the district.” We live today in a very complex and fast moving age. Everyone may not be in complete agreement with our space program, our foreign policy in Viet Naim, Medicare, or even our school district, as it is, but. the stark fact is that we are involved Wdth E each pf these situations, good or. bad, and they all very much effect each of our lives.

THURS. APRIL 2ft, 1966
Our job now is to arte ourselves how we can best equip and educate our children to live in this very complex age. I believe we need first and foremost to teach our children a very strong And deep rooted faith in God. This is * job fcr the Parents. *nbay need to be taught respect and loyalty which is also a job fox the parents. These two Wm *! go a long way toward latex pears of learning. Second is to provide adequate facilities in which Oftr children in the public schools. After many hours-of sta#y, imputing figures, calling in consultants from our State Univec|laes, comparing costs, considering district unity, and equal opportunity for all involved, the hoard decided a new centrally located Senior High School would boot serve our needs. Then it was the job of the board 0 pick a site best suited for this need. Again after many hours of Ttudying various sites, the Andy Hochstetler farm was chosen. This is history. While not always in complete agreement, in general I support this program UN per cent. Third ft is now our job to provide a staff that will torch with enthusiasm and vigor the programs outlined by our administrators. We need to provide a staff that is constantly striving to improve their abilities to convey the knowledge that they have to the students.
To achieve his I propose that our superintendent employ certain of our institutional staff on an 11 month period, using eight weeks of each summer to study our text books, investigate and interrogate our instructional aides and materials, to evaluate student preception to certain materials, to eooUr pose suggested teaching methods and guide materials for our district I suggest our guidance people, principals, and other key personnel in areas from K.-12 be included in this venture. With these aides we can feene accurately evaluate our strong and weak points. All this will cost money and money comes from taxpayers. I believe the lime has BOW come to make strong strides to strengthen our weak points both in staff members and instructional materials and curriculum. The money W spend for thi a will he very

worth while. To this end I have worked and wiH further dedicate myself to work, if you the people of the WaNee school district should re-elect me to the position of board member of our school district. Lyle Voder . ■ af i ~ Advance-News Nappanee, Indiana . V. ' MORALS! WHAT It THE COST?
In many jnstaneoj talk does not mean a thing. When we heer someone give a speech, we sometimes at* impressed jjs how the speech hit .the mail right on the head. But who is willing to do anything about It? Whj ia H that no one wants to get involved? Do we care and are We proud of thii? great land of ours? We read of immorality all around us but it does not affect ue anymore. Why are parents not interested in our youth? I think many of us are too busy trying tp get ahead in Mfe that we neigiect ftuc; children. The hudbtnd works, the wife works, and the kids run around. Are We wining to pay the price to give our youth the environment that we had when we wore in our teens? How many es us father* take time to take our boys fishing or whatever he wants % do? Is the price too great to pay to take the time to spend time with our youth? How shout you mothers? Do you go borwfliing with your daughters? Do you have time to teach them how to sew and cook, or is the price too great? Parents, do you TAKE your children to basketball games or do you send them? I think it is shout time we spend some time with our teenagers. At the age of five the schools already call our yoifngsters. They spend the best part of the day under the influence of a school teacher. The saying goes “as the home is, so is the nation”; but the school calls for the youngster as soon as he or she is about ready to team- The School teacher has a Sacred responsibility to teach by word and action the people of opr great nation of tomorrow. Each teacher and each adult, for that matter, has who knows how many young people patterning their life after kina. Bach child needs someone during the day to take a personal Interest in him. He or sbe needs -to feel that they are important and not just a number like the. rest of the animal kingdeal. Bach teacher should also be careful whet they teach the child. I think the teaching of reproductivity of the human race should be taught, with an open Bible, in the home; not in the school room and CERTAINLY NOT in a parked car beside the road somewhere. Every one of us has a responsibility to set a good example to our youth just as our parents set a good example to us. X thank God
for good moral teachers that I had when I was in school. I think the eacher that has high moral stanlards, and can influence his pupils to have high moral standards, ilong with bis ability to teach is he teacher that deserves high salary. \ When I drive down the road and :ee the beer cans and other debris mattered along the road, put there nostly by us parents, I wonder if we think very much of the land n which w r e live. How can we 2Xpect our youth to be good citizens if we set this kind of example? In one male on a country road in the Wa-Nee district there were 210 beer cans scattered along the road side. Who do you think is contributing to the delinquency of our youth? What are we doing about this situation? Nothing but paying someone wages, oujt of tax money, to clean up the road sides. There is a lot of emphasis placed on directing the minds of our youth in the right channel but how about us adults setting s good example to our youth and influencing them to have higi moral standards. I believe we can have some real satisfaction in knowing that we are a good exam pie to our youth. I am for givin' our youth the top education bus not sacrificing morals. Hi g h morals cost us something but I think it is worth it. DON’T YOU?.' Paul Hartman a Wa-Nee School Board Candiate
Advance-News Nappanee, Indiana Dear Don: I personally feel, with the in terest of my employees in mind, every voter should vote to sel the Nappanee Utilities. As President of the Nappanee Development Corporation, I be lieve that all citizens owe this to our present industry and our exist ing jobs. My personal study on this con eludes that, if we expect to en joy the growth of our city in th< future, the Nappanee Utilities wil have to be sold. It is not possible for our pres ent utilities to serve- our presen' industry and the expansion they anticipate. I am sure that busi ness, industries, and private cdtri zens have made great advancements in the past and are not the least bit interested in going bad twenty yeans.
