BETTER SCHOOLS ^ ** AND YOU

CRISIS IN EDUCATION
There are some things a man just doesn't like to be told. One la
h<m to run his business. Another is how to bring up his children. And
there s at least one thing a community doesn’t like to be told and
that's how to run its schools. ♦
Ever since schools were start-
ed in this country—and they go
f'uFSiS
back just
about as far
as the coun-
try itself—it *«
been a local
matter to see
that the chib
rtren of a com-
munity got
education. At
M.

th
for those problems. Instead,
there are thousands of local solu-
tions that are working like magic
around the country. Citizens'
committees that represent the
whole community are working
with their school boards to see
what they can do to provide the
best possible education for the
children in their towns.
Ordinary citizens in communi-
ties across the land are facing
these big problems and coming
up with solutions. They're sur-
veying what's' needed in their
towns They're getting the best
possible people to run for the
school board. They're getting be-
hind needed bond Issues for new
schools. They're planning ahead
for the best possible curriculum.
They're holding town-wide con-
fei eiues on school problems so
they'll find out what the prob-
lems are and how to deal with
them.
a’any of them have organized
citizens' committees to take i
lo-year look at school needs in
their communities They're work-
ing through their PTA's, the
local Kiwanis Club, the women's
club or farm group light in their
hometowns.
It your community is facing
school problems this fall, maybe
a citizens' committee could help
solve those problems There's n
ii ee booklet called "How Can We
Organize for Better Schools?"

a lovely home in Bloomfield, lo-
cated about 18 miles northwest
of Denver toward Boulder and are
enjoying it very much. This is
the center of an irrigation agri-
cultural community, with a breath-
taking back drop of the towering
snow capped Rockies only 10 miles
away.
We really enjoy reading the
Bulletin, and wish to convey our
best to all the nice folks back

hope to see you at Christmas Time.

DEATH TOLL HIGH.
( LAI.MS 597 LIVES
By The Associated Press
Traffic ........................................ 420
Drowning ...................................... 80
Miscellaneous .............................. 88
Total ............................ 597
Traffic accidents killed more
persons than the 420 predicted
for. the Labor Day week-end. The
toll appeared heading for one of
the biggest for the holiday since
World War II.
The heavy highway death rute
for the 78-hour period starting at
6 p.m., last Friday and ending
at midnight Monday (loCal time)
was termed a “tragic trend” by
safety experts.
Delayed reports of accidental
deaths were expected to boost the
highway toll above last year's
Labor Day total of 485.
However, safety experts said
it did not appear likely it would
reach the traffic death record for
a Labor Day of 4(’>1 set in 1951,
The second highest total for the
holiday since World War II was
■188 in 1955. This year's toll com-
pares with 42(1 for the four-day
Independence Day holiday period
and 413 for the four-day Memorial
Day holiday period.
This year’s over-all accidental
death also was one of the highest
for a Labor Day week-end in more
than 10 years. The record w$ui
<158 in 1951. Last year’s overall
toll was 596.
As millions jammed highways
in the last holiday week-end of
summer, the traffic death rate
mounted steadily, showing sharp
uicreases Sunday and yesterday.
The National Safety Council,
which had predicted the 420 deaths,
also had estimated some 45 mil-
lion cars would lie on the highways
during the week-end.
I.ee Walker of Medina visited
Bandera Tuesday and dropped by
the Bulletin office to renew his
subscription to the home paper.
Our thanks to Mrs. Frank Ross
(Oral for her renewal to' the
Bandera Bulletin which she hand-
ed us last Friday when she visited
our office.
