We enjoy telling others of something we have heard about somebody, and do not take much trouble distinguishing rumor from fact. Sometimes what we report is pleasant; somebody may be getting engaged, headed for a promotion; due for a well deserved honor. More often it is unkind; damaging to somebodys reputation. Our ego gets a tiny lift when we pass along interesting news. Few words in the English language have career than the had a more topsy-turv- y word gossip. Originally it meant a relation to God, a godfather or godmother. Then it was spelled godsib. Later it came to mean a boon companion, and it was not until Shakespeares time that it evolved to its present connotation the kind of talk we indulge in whenever friendly ears are handy. There ought to be a word that would mean just the opposite of gossip, that would denote praise and good will. It might encourage us to raise our conversational sights. Meantime, Henry van Dyke left us a couple of rules which may help us to improve: Never believe anything bad about anybody unless you-pos-v tively know it Is true; never tell fven that, unless you feel that it is absolutely necessary, and God is listening while you tel it- - We started above telling you that thers news in the legais and in the other advertizing.

Why build the high school before the middle school? It is estimated the initial bond sale will be $2,000,000. A second sale of up to $750,000 can be made within three years. This amount of maney will build the high school and along with it, the facilities go be shared by the middle school (lunch room, gym, shops, and Home Ec., art and music. This means the major part of the project will be built at the lowest cost before building costs go any higher. As building costs increase the last phase of the project will be more expensive. . . .

No. It is anticipated that the site can be purchased by the district from current revenues. 3. What will happen to the present site and buildings after the new facility is completed? This decision has not been made since the present buildings will be used for approximately ten years. The Board of Education is committed to involve the public in this decision. 4. Actually what will this bond add to my taxes? The best answer to this is just what has been printed. It will be necessary for the Board to add 6 mills to the present 17 mill levy for capital outlay expenditure. The Board is asking for authorization to sell 3.8 million dollars in bonds to build the ) new facility. It will be necessary to use 20 to pay aff these mills, after bonds. Of the present 17 mills for capital outlay, fourteen mills together with the 6 mills will be used to pay off the bonds. This will permit the Board 3 mills annually for current operation. Any other increases in taxation are unrelated to the building bond. A levy to begin paying off the bonds will not be made until 1977. b.My children are grown, why should I support this bond election? It is doubtful if any person has paid enough taxes to fully educate his own children. This means somebody in the past paid for the school building in which your children were educated and somebody helped pay for operating that school. Education is supported by everybody because everybody receives benefits from it.
