Getting Bamboozled
In a town like ours, it is a natural thing to
trust one another. And that is why it is
so much more disgusting when, periodical-
ly, somebody eomes in and fleeces local bus-
inessmen out of their hard-earned dollars.
Police of Lebanon County now are scour-
ing the country for the fellow who some
months ago, came here and sold ads right
and left for a directory of the community
which he promised to publish. On the sur-
face, the project sounded like a mighty good
one.
Quite a few businessmen were so im-
pressed that they paid for their advertise-
ments in advance. And for their trusting
natures, they now suffer a loss.
As we see it, about the only way such
things as this can be regulated is to ban all
projects of this kind. And that, we fear, is
a bit hard to bring about.

Commanity Picnics
Back in the era before everybody owned
an automobile and felt the urge to get some-
where else, no mattér. where, community
picnics were big affairs. Much thought and
effort went into the programs presented and
everybody had a lot of pleasant memories
as a result.
But — and this is just our own thought
— we can visualize a return of the popu-
larity of the eommunity picnic. In fact we
would get a big kick out of an extra good
community outdoor program this year. With
the highways so crammed every day of the
week, more and more families are looking
about for things to do at or near home,
espeeially over the summer months.

A Real Period of Change
A short talk with Doc. Mylin convinces
us that we folks here in the most fertile spot
of the world, are in the midst of a real per-
iod of transition — in eduecation, at least.
Sure we're in the midst of creating a larger
school district and building more modern
educational facilities than we ever had be-
fore, but a look at Dr. Mylin’s eounty map
will show you that the same thing is going
on throughout the county.
As a result, communities such as ours®in
the next few years will spend millions and
millions of dollars for buildings, right here
in one county. We'll go into debt, but if that
debt is spread out sufficiently, the load will
not be felt unnecessarily. Yep, and it is not
unfair that a future generation which like- ; in’ th
wise will use these new facilities, should how do gob Know yet act lookin’. cute I
help to pay for them. 9
It is our hope that the day will come, some ! * * *
time, when we will spend ten times as much
for education — and ten times less for arm-
aments. That's our hope although we never
expect to see the day!
* * *
Assessments
One big bugaboo of the present day, is the
matter of assessments. Quite often readers
ask us why we don’t make more fuss about
inequalities in assessments. And invariably
they end up with the admonition “but don’t
use my name, I'm not sticking my neck out.”
Community after community (Columbia
for example) has called attention to inequal-
ities in assessments. In fact the legislature
some years back recognized that the fixing
of assessments should be placed on the state
level as well as on more expert a basis than
at Sree
t so far the politicians have prevented
any real progress in bringing about the need-
ed changes. With local tax loads increasing,
even doubling, however, the demand for an
equalization of assessments on at least the
county level is going to become more em-
phatic.

Making History
Although we had determined to say noth-
ing about it, the fact of ex-President Harry
Truman's visit to Washington (which he em-
phasied was as a private citizen) does have
its historical significance.
For one thing, we understand this is the
first time a former chief executiye has re-
turned to the Capital without being officially
invited. For another, it was reported he
came to help the committee that is raising
that $1,750,000 for the Memorial Library
on his Grand View, Mo., farm. So he is prob-
ably the first national figure to try to whip
up enthusiasm for his own monument.
He did not call at the White House. The
President did not have time, he said, to/dday it may be worth something.”

Here's a household hint that “W. F.."” pas-
sedontous.....
The way to test good whiskey is to pass el-|
ectricity through a quart of the stuff. If the!
current causes a precipitation of lye, tin, ar-
scenic, iron slag and alum, the whiskey is fair.
If however, the liquor chases the current back
io the generator, you've got good whiskev.
