Editor and Publisher Office Phone 4 Home Phone VO4 THURSDAY, OCTOBER 4, 1*»32 SCHOOL OR NO SCHOOL The county board of tax adjustment. a body created by the las( legislature for the purpose of revising, changing and if necessary reducing the tax levy of' any municipality-so as to imake the tax levy on any piece of property within, thy county not more than SOO per *l60; or declare an eptergency.* in case that levy bn any property is rnore than SI . SU, is towting this week in Wartaw. .Attorneys and other* students of government have said that this body can only revise.fhe tax -levy in case that levy is over SI. 50 on any piece of property within the county. : But in their seal to reduce levies which is what many people* want, the Kosciusko county board seems to have, usurped other • power* which have not been delegated to them or even given them by implication. At their inquests _into the , various budgets of the. different municipalities of the county they have shown a desire lu take upon themselves "the p. wer whiih > i vested in appropriating bodies, such as the county commissioners and. township trustee. They have arbitrarily .set. a scale for teachers’ salaries, saying that such .! ;e.u lie-, shall receive so much and no more, A different class -la to receive so much, arid so^on. They have even gone sw> far as to declare that some teachers must be eliminated from, certain schools’ stalls and that, one ,»ch«>ol in a township must S e 1 f-,,i • From whence 'il'hlj they derive all this power s The right was riot given them by the Sl.su tax. law. This law, gave them the power to “revise levies," not how to spend these. The -Kosciusko county board .has shown, ■ either through ignoranpe or 'mtsinformation; "i through their dehetp the taxpayer, ho .matter how, a ru'hie>s driiicgard of the vulidity of ,s contract. . -They - claim that contracts with School teache:s and hack drivers made with good . Jntei'tT-n by both parties of the Contract, are void as» ter January Ist....They seem to forgel th.,t the Un.'cvl S:..’cs w.ir iiev/u.-e anothe.r' :i: m . onsidered a document, ~ t eaty, a contract ’* a mere scrap of paper." 1 . Will this board with g. d .intentions ' not - involve municipalities in more expense over endless litigation and lawsuits that will ensue from theii disregard of the validity of contracts, than they will save the by their actions? That is, if the township tiustees follow their instructions of holding all. such contracts invalid after Jan. 1, 1933? * 'Supposing the trustees do not'consider contracts of teachers and school hack drivers void after Jan. I, )Vs3? What will be the result? Money coming in fgom the last installment of.this year's taxes Will be spent t«* keep the schools open until next spring, but the tax money coming into the township funds next June will not be sufficient to operate the schools next fall. Schools will probably not lx» opened until after the tax installment of December 1933 has t,een received. Arid then the schools w ill be in session but a short time. In, other words the w hole question boils down to this: “Do the people want education fur their children, education in the broader sense, not just the ability to read and write, ur do they want taxes lowered? For all that the county board of tax adjustment can do to lower taxes is to cripple our schools for that is

where they are making the biggest reduction. No blame can be attached to them for it is the board’s duty to reduce taxes. And people want taxes reduced and have been bringing pressure on the lax board. The board today has run into the insurmountable wall of of ‘>!der generations, fixed charges for extravagance, and has no other reci'iirMr than to penalize the future of the American people, the children : of today.

Speaking of the greens which, to a golfer are the places he tries to putt his ball over into the cup in one stroke, if possible. A. L. Miller , at Maxwelton has listed as some of the facial treatment required by each green: ammonium sulphate to stimulate the grass and put color in its complexion; arsonate of lead as death on grubs, which are eruptions on the face of the green; balanced fertilizer as “Skin food"; carbon disulphate as death on ants who build runways; .urea to stimulate The grass on the green: and water as the crying need of the jTace of all greens. According t Millet every green needs a 3,000 I gallon drenching every night.

How One Woman Lost 10 Lbs. in a Week Mi'S. Betty Luedeke of Dayton Writes: “I am using Kruschen to reduce weight—-I lost 10 pounds in one week and cannot say top much to recommend it. ” To take off fat easily, SAFELY and HARMLESSLY -take one half teaspoonful of Kruschen in a glass of hot water in the morning before breakfast, go lighter on fatty meats, potatoes, butter, cream and pastries—it is the safe way to lose unsightly fat and one bottle that lasts 4 weeks costs but a trifle. Get" it at any drug" store in America. If the first bottle! fails to convince you this is the; safest way to lose fat—money back. | But be sure and get Kruschen I Salts —imitations are numerous and you must safeguard yoiir health.
