Letters to the Editor
Atkinson, Nebr.
I think schools are the fore
most on every mind these days.
Especially afteh the maps and
the write up In The Frontier.
As most of you will remember, 1
school district 231 of Holt county 1
built a new school house last fall
and I, as secretary of that school
board, got a lot of conversation
some good, some bad.
Then came the dedication of
the new school. 1 really got com
ments. " Why did you invite Free
man Decker up here?” Many of
my' Atkinson and O'Neill friends
sort of read the riot act to me.
Most of the newspapers were out
looking for comments on Mr. Dec
ker's speech. They picked it a
part and even made comments on
the road he traveled to get to out
school house. So it went.
Next comes the petitions to I
elect our state education com
missioner rather than appoint him.
But who did the appointing in the
first place? Good question I
think, don’t you?
Then the maps and big black
letters "Committee Proposes Two
K-12 Districts.”
Saturday the Holt Rural School
Boards association met in O’
Neill. Inspite of the rather cold
windy day, what a turn out! I
think I Would be safe ul saying
there was not a school board
in the county that wasn't repre
sented.
Miss Alice French opened the
meeting with a few words. Then
Mr. Closson took over and I'm
sure everyone that was there
heard what Lyle Dierks had to
say.
Tuesday I stopped at the
county superintendent's, office to
to pick up one of the copies of the
booklets that was left by the uni
versity as it stated in The
Frontier we could have one I did
n't get my booklet though, so I
got to asking a few questions
such as why didn’t the university
committee present this about the
K-12 schools to the school boards
such as the meeting in O'Neill Sat
urday? Where or who gave them
permission to survey the coun
ty?
I learned they were HIRED by
our Holt county redistricting com
mittee and are to be paid by our
board of Holt county supervisors
They got paid to come into
Holt county to survey' and print
these booklets, etc.!
Now who wants these K-12
schools the most—our own Holt
county redistricting committee,
or board of supervisors or the
state?
Yes, I got criticized for inviting
Mr. Decker up here to show him
we could build a nice modem
school house. But will the Holt
county redistricting committee
and the board of supervisors get
criticized for paying out the tax
payer’s money to hire the univer
sity to come in and survey and
redistrict our county?
Are our olt county newspa
pers as eager to print things that
i
take place in our own county as
they are telling what takes plage
in the state?
Can't we the people of' Holt
county redistrict and improve our
school situation without calling in
he university?
/Vs a parent anil a school board
member, 1 know we have a lot to
think ttbout and do in order to
keep our country schools.
MRS. JOHN E. MOHR, JR.

ever notice this
about our
SMILE ?
It’s something like the smile the
old-time, sleeve-gartered store
keeper used to flash when he said
“thank you.” No doubt about it —
you knew you’d been thanked.
Why? Because as he smiled he gave
the kids a sack of candy ... grinned
happily as he put an extra free
doughnut in the bag. He felt good
. . . glad you were a customer . . .
and he smiled, inside and out.
That’s the kind of smile you get
here when we say “thank you.”
Because we, too, now give you
something extra with everything
you buy: Top Value Stamps ... one
for each dime you spend. We give
you a free stamp-saver book to put
the stamps in. A free gift catalog,
too. And you get your choice of
more than 1,000 gifts . . . free for
Top Value Stamps. Gifts with brand
names you can trust, and every one
the finest of its kind.
We feel good about giving this
bonus to good customers. We just
can’t help but smile — that special
smile.
Why not come in and see it with
you!1 own eyes.
