NOTHING TO BRAG ABOUT February 5, 1960 - Dear Editor: Architect James Lacy, in a recent statement at a school board meet- ing, as reported in the daily press has painted a disturbing financial picture to taxpayers who will have to pay for the new school. He states that taxes have been raised ten mills and will probably . £0 up another five and a half mills He estimates an annual rental charge of $125,000, about $30,000 to $35,000 to be paid by the state He explains the relatively low state ‘reimburseéfment by shating that the state will ‘not reimburse anyhing for ‘the avditorium. Previously cer- tain other items have been listed which the state w'll not accept for full reimbursement. The high cost of the ‘school is defended on increased costs; and FORTY FORT THEATRE THURSDAY and FRIDAY SAL MINEO ‘and CHRISTINE CARERE and GARY CROSBY “A PRIVATE AFFAIR” Cinemascope and Color SATURDAY Matinee and Evening JERRY LEWIS “THE SAD SACK” SUNDAY, MONDAY, TUESDAY Continuous Sunday, 3-11 JAMES GARNER and NATALIE WOOD “CASH McCALL” LUZERNE THEATRE THURSDAY JAMES “Maverick” GARNER and ED “Kookie” BYRNES “DARBY'S RANGERS” FRIDAY and SATURDAY “Voted Best Picture of the Year” “ROOM AT THE TOP” With LAWRENCE HARVEY and SIMONE SIGNORET SUNDAY AND MONDAY Continuous Sunday, 2-11 “SUMMER PLACE” RICHARD EGAN and DOROTHY McQUIRE and SANDRA DEE TUESDAY and WEDNESDAY CLIFTON WEBB, JANE WYMAN ‘HOLIDAY FOR LOVERS’ Cinemascope and Color LADIES’ DISHES comparison with other newly built schools, or schools now building, is made to make it appear that our 1ew school will not cost an. exces sive amount in these times. This boils down to this: our school beard has delayed and de- Tayed year after year to get a lot of free money from the state. The actual amount they are going tc get will be roughly a quarter of thc rental. In the meantime during all this 1elay building costs have sky- ‘ocketed.

Nuclear attack by the Soviet long-range airforce presents the most immediate threat. 2. The Soviets have a well- developed and continually improv- ing missile system, although at the present time they probably do not have militarily significant quantities 3. Through their developement of ground-to-air missiles, the So- viets' would hope to neutralize our Strategic Air Command, or, at least, considerably blunt its effectiveness in delivering a massive retaliation. 4. Through the development of an- elaborate Civil Defense system utilizing critical manpower, money and material, the Soviet Union hopes to be able to absorb our re- taliation punch. It is important that we consider all of these points in any discussion of Soviet capabilities. Because of the Soviet capabil'ty we face one of the greatest challenges in our history. It is up to us to do sdmething about it. (Recent intelligence reports indicate that all Soviet citizens are required to take twenty-two hours of intense Civil Defense instruction. H.) So, Mr. Hanson closed his article “THE GREAT CHALLENGE.” That he is not alone in his opinions ig shown by tha following news items ~ecently published: SIR WINSTON CHURCHILL SAID “The need for an effective system of Civil Defense is surely beyond dispute. Tt presents itself today in ‘ts noblest aspects, namely thr Christian dutv ‘of helping fellow mortals in distress. No city, nc family, nor any honourable man or woman can repudiate this duty and accept from others held which they are not prepared tn fit themselves to ~ender in return.” COMMODORE PERRY, 1856, PRO- PHESIED: “The people of America will, ir some form cr another, extend th-ir Jomination and their power to the eastern shore of Asia.

Waters HI TI When the Church Street Metho- dist ‘Church was built a special loft was built for the choir back of the pulpit with floor level several fect | above the speaker’s platform. About the turn of the century the ‘left ‘was removed, the floor brought d~wn, and a pipe organ installed, at which time the choir was placed in rows across in‘front eof the organ. Shoct- | ly after World War I a new rgan was installed and the choir moved to a platform on the parsonage :'de of the chancel. Later a second » hoir was placed on the ornosite side. Early organists included Edith Ryman Stone. Anna Richards Isaacs, Bessie Horning Strous, Edna Isaacs Faust, Margaret Bennett LaBar, Edna Hallock King, Ella Sutton Rivenburg, and Arline Beisel Rood. The old organ was powered by a hand-operated bellows. Long time operator of the pump was Walter Stroud. Supn'ementing the music of the organ Edna Ryman Gace and Rnd- ney Saxe played the violin at wide- ly separated periods. In the interval Ralph Rocd played the cornet regu- | larly and served many years as choir director. Later, positions of organist and choir director were combined. In- ~umbents included Mark ‘A. Daw- her, Albert Collitt, Arline Bszisel Rood. (second time), Carl Keefer, and Ruth Turn Revnnlds. For a short period Sylvia Kuhnert served as organist and Mrs. Willim Heapps and Gordon Wolverton acted 5s ~hoir director. At present the com- bined position is filled by Fern Coldren. Singing in the choir has run in families, sometimes for three scen- arations, other times two genera- “ions. or hushand and wife, and hrothers and sisters. No list is avail- qhle of those who have served. The follow'ng list is supnlied bv ecovr- tesv of former organists and cho'r members and is incomplete:- Mrs. Ash, Mr. and Mrs. William Baker, Sr..

SPEAR ¢ Ivestmont Advicor and Amalyst COUPLE FACING RETIREMENT WITH LIMITED FUNDS SHOULD LOOK TO SAFETY OF PRINCIPAL Q. From New York State, “We plan to retire soon. Aside from So- c'al Security, we'll have about $15,- 000 in cash. We are considering putting about $5,000 into stocks and bonds. What would you suggest that we buy and what dividend could we receive?” A. I assume from your lette: that $15,000 represents the sum total of your capital and that you are not likely to be able to add te it. Since you mention a possible investment of $5,000, I am alsc assuming that you will keep th balance in some form of savings account. I would certainly advisc you to do so. Before making any suggestions about investments, I would like tc point out some basic differences be tween stocks and bonds. Right now better grade stocks yield less but have a good prospect of increasing in value over the years through earnings and dividend growth. Nor- mally, the better the growth pros pects, the lower the yield. All stock: have one factor in common, they fluctuate. If you buy shares, you must realize that the market value may be subject to variations, and if you're a worrier, you must take this factor into consideration. Bonds are, theoretically at least more ‘secure than stocks because they are a first charge on post-ta: income. There is no chance ‘of growth in bonds and they also fluc tuate, but within narrower limits They should be regarded solely a- income producers, offering a higk degree of security and a limited op portunity for profit. Since I think you need some growth as well as income to help you keep ahead of inflation, I'm going to suggest that you put your $5,000 into conserva- tive and relatively safe stocks. Public Utilities Suggested Among common stocks, public utility issues probly offer the least risk for someone in your position and over the years there should be cont'nued satisfactory growth in this field. American Telephone would be my first suggestion. This stock at its recent price around 82 would give you a yield of 4% on its present annual dividend rate of $3 30 a share per year. I would put phone. In the electrical utility field, I like Southern Co., which is a fast- arow'ng holding company operating through subsidiaries in an expand- ing region. Southern Co. has just raised = its dividend for the sixth consecutive year. The stock now pays $1.40 annually. At its recent 3% %. 1 would put one-third of fund: here and the remaining one- into’ Southwestern Public Service. Another For Fast Growth The latter is also a fast growth operating in a region pansion should be above -average. Southwestern has just voted to its shares two-for-one. This means that if you buy the old stock around 47, you will ultimately get an additional share for each share held, which would probably bring the price of the new shares down to around 23%. The dividend on the new stock will become $0.84 an- nually starting next June, which will mark the 10th dividend in- crease since 1948. The yield, figured on this rate that starts in June, would come to 3% % at current levels. I believe you would have relatively little risk in the issues I have outlined, and that over a per- iod of time, your income should continue to gain. MIDWESTERN INSTRUMENTS — AN ACQUISITION CANDIDATE Q. From New York State, “I would like your opinion on Mid- western Instruments. Should I hold these shares or trade them for an- other electronics issue?” A. Midwestern is “a situation that is not easy to analyze. The company makes a diversified line of specialized electronic equipment but has shown no earnings growth in recent years. Both sales and net were down in the first half of 1959, the latest period reported. Textron Electronics recently tried to acquire Midwestern, and it looked for a time as if the deal would go through. Negotiations were broken off, however. I still think Midwestern is a candidate for | acquisition and that there are some | speculative possibilities along these | lines. Personally, I would prefer to own Baird-Atomic, selling about 2 points higher. Baird is a leader in optical electronic equipment, a pio- neer in infrared, and a strong re- search situation. I believe there is more glamor here than in Midwest- arn, and that over a period of time, you would do better with Baird. | (Send your investment questions to Mr. Roger E. Spear, c/o this paper.)

It is the opera-into-ballet, a medium that was pioneered and developed by Ruth Page, the director and choreo- grapher of the Chicago company.
