Public Hearing On Trailer Ordinance At School Oct. 26
The Montague Observer
EIGHTY-SECOND YEAR, NO. 49
Public Hearing On
Trailer Ordinance
At School Oct. 26
The public hearing on the proposed trailer ordinance will be
held at the school auditorium
Tuesday, Oct. 25, 7:30 p.m.
The proposed ordinance was
published complete in The Observer of Oct. 6. Its terms are
considered strict, and is designed to keep trailers out of the
city. Temporary permits may be
secured, but approval of residents in the area where the trailer is to be located must be secured. ,
The ordinance was read and
discussed at the City Council
meeting of Oct. 3. About 35 citizens attended the meeting, and
many c o m p l a i n e d over the
terms. Others present considered the t e r m s too lenient. It is a
foregone conclusion that the
Tuesday night public hearing
w i l l - develop plenty of heat.
Standing room only will be available for late-comers.
Very likely City Attorney William Balgooyen will a n s w e r
questions, and Mayor Edward
S c h a r m e r will preside at the
session. Other members of the
city council will attend.
At the present time there are
14 house trailers parked out Old
Channel Trail. To some this very
area is considered high type residential, and that trailer parking
will lower property values. In
one instance a trailer resident
stated he was paying $40 per
. month for parking privilege.

Mouth School To
Vote On Two Mill
Tax Assessment
There has been some misunderstanding of the exact purpose
of the election Friday night,
October 21, 1955, at the Mouth
School. Some people feel the
only issue to be decided then is
whether to build a new school
by issuing bonds. That is not
the purpose of the election.
F r i d a y ' s election is only to
raise the millage on property in
the District by two mills — that
is, $2.00 per thousand on assessed valuation. The purpose of
the moneys thus raised is to
gather data for the benefit of
the Mouth district electors. Architects, builders, and investment consultants will be contacted by the Board. No one seems
to know how much a new building will cost or how it could be
expanded in the future to meet
needs that will arise from the
growth of the District that will
result from the industrial expansion.
The misunderstanding seems
to be that the school is to be
built, or not built, as a result of
the election. No school can be
built, or bonds issued unless a
majority of the School Tax Electors vote upon it at an election
which must be held later. The
whole district would have ample
time to be heard, the pros and
cons fully discussed before such
a vote is asked by the board. In
the event the board issue was
turned down, the mone^ raised
as a result of Friday night's
election would remain in the
school district's building fund
and could not be withdrawn
therefrom without the vote of
the electors of the district.
The board indicated it was
their intention to proceed fully
in the matter and hold a public
meeting after all the facts have
been gathered. Such a meeting
should be held probably after
J a n u a r y 1, 1956, and the tax
electors would be given all the
information gathered by the
board. The board feels that this
procedure would give everyone
a complete picture of the issue.
Junior School Band
To Play At U. ot M.
The Montague Junior Band
has brought • a real honor to
themselves, to the school, and to
the community. They have been
invited to give a forty-five minute concert in Hill Auditorium
at the University of Michigan
for the Mid-Western Band Director's Conference Saturday
J a n u a r y 14th.
Included in their program will
be three numbers that, a r e possible choices for this y e a r ' s band
festival. The band directors will
choose one of these 'selections
which will then become the required number for the class ' ' D "
junior bands for the 1956 festival.
A nationally renowned conductor and composer, not yet
chosen, will conduct the Montague Junior Band in one of their
selections.
The band was chosen for this
honor because last year in the
state band festival they were
rated as the number-one band
in class "D'* in the state of Michigan.
The band will have to work
hard as they have a big rebuilding job to do. Seventeen members of last years band graduated into the senior band this
year. They were replaced by
twenty-five new members.

Mrs. Wallace (Eleanor) Weesies of Whitehall won an electric

Schmidt Hardware, Montague,
are the local Hot Point dealers,
and conducted the contest in this
area. Mr. Schmidt stated there
were m a n y local contestants,
and that prizes worth two million dollars-, were distributed
throughout the country.

The Montague Band Boosters

director, Carl Bjerregaard, the
senior band presented a very
spectacular
show Wednesday

Test Well Indicates
350 Gal. Per Minute;
Cost May Be $15,000
Monday night the Layne-Northern Co. reported to the city
council the location of a good
well which will deliver at least
350 gallons per minute. The report was made on the basis of
a test well put down 150 feet
east of the C & O Railroad. The
property is owned by Henry
Hunt, and lies about midway
between Hunt and Lasley Sts.
(If they went through and across
Water street.)
The land is very low, only
about 4 feet above White River
level, and is a bad spot to get
to. However, the Layne-Northern
report on water taken from the
well indicates excellent water.
O. O. Schwier, vice president of
Layne-Northern, stated the water was equal to Lake Michigan
water, and had less than .02
iron, no sulphur or chloride, and
no odor.
Attempts were made without
success to find water west of the
city on two sites. The river bed
site seemed more favorable, and
the test well was drilled. M r . .
Schwier estimated the cost of a
well which would deliver 350 to
500 gallons to be $15,000.
Councilman G e o r g e Dillabaugh stated the big problem
before going f u r t h e r with the
well was to arrange financing.
City Engineer Alfred Hansen attended the council meeting and
will write specifications for the
proposed well.
Mr. Hansen also stated he was
working on the sewerage project, and hoped to have the d a t a
wanted when m e m b e r s of the
council go to Detroit again to
investigate the possibility of getting a bond issue through the
state securities commission.
City Clerk Edna Medbery read
a petition f r o m Mohawk Court
residents requesting the paving
of their street. It was explained
that only four lots in the subdivision were vacant. The subdivision is across from Memorial
Field off Hancock street, and
was designed for high class
homes. The petition was signed
by eight residents.
Another problem which c a m e
up was the cutting down of a
tree right at the Franklin Hotel
and Dowling street. The tree,
a huge poplar, is dead and might
fall any time. Large chunks of
bark have fallen. It was stated
that a chunk fell on the bowling
alley entrance the other day.
Had it hit any person it probably would have killed them.
Herb Jacobs stated the Consumers Power would have taken
the tree out about a y e a r ago
when they were putting in the
new street lights up Franklin
Hill. At the time Nick Ford,
Franklin Hotel operator, refused
to grant permission for removal
of the tree, even though it was
practically dead then, Jacobs
stated.
Len Sipple was at the council
meeting and stated his father,
C. J. Sipple, had not been asked
about the tree. The city has
threatened to remove the tree
now and charge it up to the
hotel. Mr. Sipple plead that an
attempt be made to get Consumers Power to contribute to
the expense, and that it be split
three ways: the city, the hotel
and Consumers. Herb Jacobs
was instructed to ascertain what
Consumers would do.
The Lebanon Lutheran church

"Drivers a r e " the greatest
cause for traffic accidents, "not
speed," says the Citizens Research Council of Michigan. Of
three elements involved in traffic safety, the least attention is
paid to "Who should drive and
under what conditions," also
says the R e s e a r c h Council.
Much attention has been paid
1o highway design and auto manufacture, which are two important elements in traffic safety,
but very little has been done
about keeping unfit drivers off
the highways. Until something
worth while has been done to
eliminate people who have no
business driving high speed cars
on the highways, the accident

Building a big state-wide political machine to examine drivers and issue licenses will not
solve the problem, even though
it may help a political party to

If you watched the TV broadcast of the ND-Sparton game

type of advertising over both TV

newspaper ads, if you don't want

off the reading nor shout at you.

For Consideration«
Closed the offic^earlj' last Saturday to go after pheasants with
Pops Foster. I used fewer shells
than the old gentleman and took
home more birds-but not because I did better shooting.
I'd borrowed a dog for the oceasion. Pops took along Blue, his

of bushes Blue had pointed at

hadn't flushed a single bird.

From where I sit, Pops always
shows consideration for people,

thing, but he puts a bottle of beer ,
on ice for me when I visit him—
though he never takes anything |
but coffee himself. Even if he .
doesn't agree with me on a mat- i

his right) he'd rather not make a
"point" of letting me know.
Naturally, I wanted to know
why. "Well," he said sheepishly,

Mass Feeding By
Red Cross-CD To
Be Practiced Here
A Mass Feeding Course for
the public will be given under
Red Gross-Civil" Defense supervision, sponsored by Fruitland
Grange, at Meinert Park Nov.
1 and 2, 8:30 a.m. to 6:00 p.m.
Meinert Park was chosen because it is close to the farming
section. If an emergency occur
ed, either from nature or bombing, the residents of the cities
would head for the open spaces.
Farmers would be put under
stress unless both they and the
city people knew how to handle
the masses, not only for feeding
but also sanitation.
> A large group of instructors
are needed' for the v a r i o u s
phases of training, therefore it
is necessary to have those from
the area interested in such a
school, register in advance either with the Civil Defense office
at the Court House, Muskegon
Training will include the making of ovens, cement from anything handy, w1 a t ie! r, leaves;
sand, hiaking spoons and eating
utensils from No. 10 cans, drinking cups from No. 2 cans, cooking in lard pails, etc., menus
and actual food preparation.
Technicians will be present
from the Gas Co., Health Dept.,
Fire Depts., Propane Gas, Red
Cross, C .D. Communications,
and National Guard. It is urged
that all cooks from summer
camps. Girl and Boy Scouts and
others, plus the restaurants sign
up for this course.
Reservations should be in by
Oct. 24 so the committee can
be sure that the school can be
held, and ascertain the amount
of food to be purchased. A minimum charge for the actual cost
of the food will be made for
