The scout troop had as its guests
last Thursday night the members of
the Rotary club, which sponsors the
troop and which includes the meni-
"bers of the troop committee. A special program had been prepared by
the scouts which included a most interesting illustrated talk, on the
heavens hy Wesley Dietiker. Wesley's talk was devoid of technicalities and the scouts voted for more
of it another meeting.
Scouts of the Daniel Boone Patrol
give a ^short skit showing their idea
of the Scout Law: A 'Scout is Loyal.
The  visiting  men joined  the  scouts
in a game   of "Snat-h   the   Bacon'
and appeared   to   enjoy the contest
with the hoys.    A contest   in   tying
tenderfoot   knots  was    held with  a '-
scout from each patrol participating. I
Billy   Eberle   of   the   Turtle   Patrol j
came  off  with the honors.    K,* has i
been  challenged for  another  contest;
at the meeting tonight. - j

Rotarians had the pleasure of having Superintendent T. M. Clay with
them last Thursday noon, at th£ir
regular weekly meeting at The
Tavern.
Mr. Clay spoke for nearly an hour
on various phases of the schools and
the educational problems confronting
the people of today. As some of the
events leading up to the crisis he
quoted: 439c decrease in. revenue in
three-year period, tax limitation, valuation cut, tax delinquencies, ia^s
support in general.
Some of the obvious results:
Teachers loads increased, salary reductions average about 40^, with increased enrollment teaching positions have besn decreased about IS'Tt,
ttnure ci teachers very insecure,
many of tha teachers leaving the
profession.
