You And Your Child
Education Is Everybody's Task
R> DAVID NY DICK
I P) Education Specialist
lie future of our nation and
. c world depends in large part
upon the accomplishments of
dui educational system. With
dii.s <r> mind, every individual
an coin minify must attempt to
drvHop and supporl the finest
Huaischool program which is
I .—a Ih’i. Education is every-
.'jneV tiasincss. It is an invest-
ment which pays continuing div-
idends to all of society.
A successful business should
siiend its money effectively and
efficiently. Citizens who want to
support the schools often won-
der what parts of the school
budge! should be emphasized in
order to obtain quality in the
educational program. The real i
question is, “what makes a good !
school system?"-
The over-all answer is money.
Good education costs dollars. A j
recent survey has shown that |
there is a direct relationship ]
between cost and results. The
better school systems spend
more money.
Therefore communities must
first be willing to spend the
necessary dollars. This willing-
ness is closely related to confi-
’ci.io that the schools are us-
ing the tax dollars efficiently.
This means that there must he
an effort to avoid waste. It also
means that staff members led
by administration should make
every possible effort to order
and purchase materials which
meet the necessary standards
at the lowest (xissible cost.
The first implication is that
any school system needs an ef-
ficient business office. This
should lie under the direction of
a qualified business administra-
tor. Mis job involves efficient
distritnition and use of supplies,
preparation of bids specifica-
tions, purchasing of supplies,
maintenance of equipment and
buildings, and obtaining state
aid. These and other duties are
most important to the efficient
use of tax dollars.
Admittedly the many small
school systems with only one or
two schools cannot afford a full
time business manager. Such
school systems should choose
their regular administrators
with this need in mind. Perhaps
a school board member can be
helpful in this area. The real
answer is that such small school
systems should not exist. The
board and community should
make every effort to expand by
combining with a neighboring
system or systems.
The very large school systems
have other problems. It is often
difficult to avoid waste in large
organizations. Careful studies
should be made in order to find
areas where economies can be
accomplished without cutting :
down on quality.

"We were allowed to cook for
them and also had to feed the
Congolese guards. We really
spoiled them in the hope of
putting them in a good mood.
"But on Tuesday rebel cap-
tain Otto Ycnga, with a wide
grin on his face, announced
that all men would be executed.
That was after the Belgian par-
as had dropped on Stanleyville.
"On that day they shot or
beat to death 12 whites.
"The next day four fathers
including Father Remo Armani,
an Italian, and three other
white men were taken out and
killed. ,4
"Father Armani was pinned
to the ground and shot through
the heart. They all had their
mouths covered with adhesive
tape to prevent them from
screaming.”
"It all happened in an eerie
silence before our eyes.
"The man who deserved a
dcoration is a Dutchman from
Bueda, named Siegers. He had
immobilized two trucks of the
brewery where he worked as a
mechanic. The rebels could not
use them. But as soon as the
first paras had landed he crept
through the long grass, got the
paras to his trucks which he
alone could start again and
drove to the hospital.
"On the way he was shot
through the arm. If It had not
been far him the guards would
have killed more.’’

Sorry to disturb you but some folks across the field
asked for electric service. DeWitt Comity Electric Co-
operative, Inc. has a covenant to offer area coverage
and when they asked for service we took the most dir-
ect route to their home. While we realize, we have dis-
turbed you, just think what electricity will mean to
these people. It has brought a new way of life to thou-
sands of rural people.
Uses for electricity are multiplying like ... if you’ll ex-
cuse the expression... like rabbits. And DeWitt County
Electric Cooperative, Inc. must stay ahead of demand,
so dig another burrow close by. You’ll be safe there ...
until the next rural family calls for service.
