Show PTA Rings The PTA rings a bell in many an American home these days as PTA Membership Enrollment gets under way. Members of the more than 45,000 PTA's in the National Congress hope to give every citizen a chance to join in their effort in behalf of children. Their aim to provide for every child the things he needs to grow up healthy, emotionally secure, spiritually strong, well educated, able to work with others and useful to his community. Many citizens this fall will see a new filmstrip produced recently by the PTA to show For Members What the PTA Is All About." It depicts PTA's in action all over the country and in schools serving American military posts overseas. The action reflects varied priorities in different communities: Youngsters who come to school without breakfast are offered juice, cereal and milk by members of the Clark school PTA in Charlottesville, Pa. Spanish-sHakinchildren, newly arrived in Elizabeth, N.J., get special tutoring from members of the PTA council while other members reverse the coin and help with extra-cur- g ricular lessons in French for youngsters. Children in new, suburban areas may have new schools to attend, but often these dont have sidewalks. PTAs in Fayetteville, Ark., are among many working with local governments to provide safe access to such buildings. In an older school, PTAs may be equally enterprising. A central library now serves Pot-wi- n elementary school in Topeka, Kans., and its PTA helped last year, too, in converting a little-useauditorium to a sports center for shuffleboard and basketball. And because they believe sensible teaching about sex can make for happier adolescence and maturity, PTAs like those in Spencer, Iowa, have helped with development of sex education courses in many schools. Activities like these demonstrate in communities throughout the country what the PTA is all about. that makes Its people-powe- r the PTA effective in helping children, says National PTA president Mrs. Irvin E. of Albuquerque, N. Mex. It's that kind of power that turns a ripple of personal concern into a surging tide of action for childrens good. Thats the reason, she says, for the current PTA membership slogan, Put people-powe- r in the PTA join today. native-bor- n d Hen-dryso- children benefit from many types of PTA projects: nursery schools, kindergartens, day care center playgrounds. These and scores of other imaginative PTA programs are depicted in filmstrip, recently produced by the National PTA, to show "What the PTA is All About."

TOOELES total property tax levy in 1968 amounted to 93.94 mills ($93.94 per $1,(XK) assessed valuation). This compares with a total levy of 67.30 mills in 1967 and 86.65 mills in 1965. According to the study, the property tax rate has risen 20 per cent since 1960, 68 per cent since 1950, and 129 per cent since 1940. The following tabulation shows the total tax rate levied in Tooele during a number of selected years: Approximately 50.4 per cent of the property taxes charged in Tooele this year will go for school purposes. The Foundation report shows that 39.0 per cent of the property tax will be for municipal purposes, 10.6 per cent for county purposes. A breakdown of the 1968 proKrty tax levy in Tooele is shown by the following tabulation: Levy Purpose 36.64 Municipal 47.30 School were substantial. Largest overall increases were recorded by Tooele - 6.64 mills. North Salt Lake -- 5.00 mills; Springville mills; Ephraim - 4.00 mills; Provo - 3.96 mills. Largest clines occurred in Moab mills decrease and Milford a 2.00 mill reduction. -- 4.45 and de- 2.10 with Foundation analysts emphasize that the mill rate is only one factor in determining the property tax bill. Equally important is the assessment level, or the ratio to market value that property is being assessed. Thus, even though most mill levy changes in Utah were modest this year, some taxpayers could experience a substantial boost in their property tax bill because of higher property valuations resulting from the property assessment equalization program. The report points out that Park City retained the dubious honor of having the highest property tax rate with a total levy of 109.61 mills, while Blanding registered the lowest overall rate among riia-jcities with 65.57 mills. or The "Surrey with the Fringe on the Top was responsible for the pneumatic x tire.
