Post-War Planning Committee Hears <
Wesley Beadle on School Problems
Wesley Beadle of t h e S t a t e
Board of Public Instruction m e t
with the local committee for postw a r planning and with m e m b e r s
of school boards of outlaying
districts last F r i d a y evening to
discuss p o s t - w a r planning.
Mr. Beadle outlined the d e v e l o p m e n t of m o d e r n school districts f r o m the original o n e - r o o m
backwoods school districts which
f o r m e r l y dotted t h e state. H e
predicted t h a t f u r t h e r consolidation will t a k e place as t h e people
d e m a n d more educational facilities for their children. H e said
t h a t such consolidations would
not necessarily m e a n closing of
t h e o n e - r o o m e l e m e n t a r y schools
in the outlaying districts but t h a t
they, as p a r t of a larger district,
would receive t h e benefits of t h e
special a d v a n t a g e s available to
t h e children in the larger schools.
He pointed out t h a t t h e r e is a
limit to t h e ability to t r a n s p o r t
pupils to a central location and
t h a t over-long bus routes are not
desirable for t h e smaller children.

County Convention
The Muskegon C o u n t y R e p u b lican convention held last T h u r s day e v e n i n g in the court house
in Muskegon w e n t smoothly a n d

had been expected because of t h e

failed to materialize. Some i n fluence had been e x t e n d e d in t h e
county to keep a w a y delegates
who w e r e opposed to the M c K a y
element, b u t w i t h o u t m u c h effect.
D r . W a l t e r B. Steele was n o m inated for c h a i r m a n by Clarence

total assessed valuation of t h e

Engel, there are nine million
persons whose total incomes p e r

persons with incomes of only

Editorial
Every few days someone comments that Montague ought to get
busy and develop a city park along the waterfront. Well, what could
be better advertising for Montague than an eye-catching park just
off the highway? Everyone is aware that countless people driving
through Montague think there is nothing more to our city than the
few blocks that front US-31 ! And that is no proper advertisement
for our city, you must admit. There is nothing to make them pause to
investigate further. Folks who have gone up the hill for the first time
ore astonished at the beauty of our maple shaded streets and at the
number of homes there are here. An almost universal comment is,
" I didn't know there was anything in Montague but those places
along US-31
Naturally no one pauses to investigate when there is no incentive to pause. W h a t we need is a good stopping place where people
can get out of their cars and look around. And people who are
traveling are always attracted to a spot on a lake front. We are
neglecting our number one asset.
Of course there are difficulties to be overcome in making a good
park along the waterfront. But since when have we been handed
anything on a silver platter?
The argument in favor of creating a beauty spot to a t t r a c t
those wfio are driving through our town is, however, the least important argument of all. Our city needs a beauty spot of which its own
people can be proud! Our civic home needs a place for its own
people to gather for recreation. W e need to make it easy and pleasant for our families to stay in their own town. Why can't we have
a slip for small boats; a dock for casting practice; shuffle board
courts; horse shoe pitching courts; volley ball or badminton courts.
W h y can't we have a spot along the lake to which people can stroll
of an evening to sit and chat and admire the view and pass,,the
time of day?
The answer is, " W e C A N ! " W e may have to start in a small
way but the important thing is to START!

The proudest title
In the Army
I t CONSISTS of two simple words.
Yet every soldier who's worth his salt covets it.
This title is simply:
"Good Soldier.**
It isn't just happenstance that so many women
in the WAC have earned this title—the proudest
in the Army.
For wherever Wacs are working, both here and
overseas, there you find a job well done. And done
with a spirit so gallant and fine that high Army
officers everywhere say of the W A C . . .
" T h e y ' r e soldiers. Good soldiersP*

many natural resources to help win the war."

in reading a statement made by a high government official on synthetic rubber. In i t he
said' I t is fair t o regard the rubber manufactured to date as being almost solely the product of the beverage distilling i n d u s t r y . ' "
" H e also said that, in his estimation, the
tremendous contribution of distillers' industrial alcohol to the synthetic rubber program
had not received the recognition which it
deserves."
