CedarvilleWelcomes aNewBank In attractive and practical » quarters Cedarville’s new bank opened this week.

In its central location the mod ern bank, directed by James D. Mitchell and his assistants, will be recognized as an important institution in the community. TWO BIG ISSUES Voters will be asked to pass on an issue o f $1,300,000 in the form o f a 2-mill levy for the op eration and maintenance o f the Greene county memorial hospital now under construction just north o f Xenia. This levy would be im posed on the duplicate from 1950- 54 at the rate o f 20 cents for each $100 property valuation. Another resolution before the board o f elections fo r presenta tion to the county electorate is a $60,000 bond issue to provide a , county detention home fo r juven ile correction institution. The is sue is to bear 3 per cent interest fo r a 10-year period. The cost to property holders would be 11 cents on each $1,00Q property val uation. In the local area four districts are to vote on levies—Cedarville fo r renewal of a 2.5 mill levy for five years; Jefferson township for renewal of a 1.5 milk fo r cur rent expenses fir five years; Ross township fo r three mills fo r five years, a renewal o f the present levy, and Clifton village a 3-mill levy for five years fo r current expenses. BeSure ToVote It is your privilege, your obligation and your duty to vote—and exactly the way you please—Nov. 7. On the School Scene The wild November comes at last Beneath a veil o f rain; The might wind blows its fold a- side, Her face is full of pain. The latest o f her race, she takes The Autumn’s vacant throne: She has but one short moon to live, And she must live alone. R. H. Stoddard November comes just between autumn and winter. Nature is in process o f shedding its summer garb. The farmer has only a few more jobs that he must de before he can relax a bit fo r the winter months. A t this season outdoor activi ties come to a halt, to be replac ed by inside parties, basketball games, and various holiday din- *era and festivities. Maay~fPmous** iSnerwaiT TKsh were bora in November. Among them are: Daniel Boone, ‘William Cullen Bryant, Edwin Booth, and Mark Twain. Important events o f the month jure: Book Week, Education Week, Armistice Day, and Thanksgiving Day. For the pupils, November marks the beginning o f the bas ketball season. For adults, Nov ember 7 this year is the date o f an important election. Biology Class Observes Conservation Practices Members o f the biology class enjoyed a soil and water conser vation tour o f Greene County last Wednesday, October 25. This was a part o f the county-wide pro gram which was:set up by the Farm Bureau Association, the Soil Conservation District, the Agricultural Extension Service, and the High Schools o f Greene County fo r the purpose o f giving pupils in the schools a beter idea o f what the county is doing to prevent mismanagement of the soil, and 'help those farmers whose soil has been sxhausted, to restore it into production. A ll along with a number o f other classes in the county, Cedar ville pupils made the trip to sev eral farms to observe situations pertaining to conservation first hand. Tlley were accompanied by Mr. Guthrie, science teacher, and Mr. Ferguson^ 4-H advisor. At each stop an instructor emphas ized important factors. An interesting study was made o f two woodlots. Here we were told that a well-managed wood- lot not only has several varieties o f native trees, but must also have a good forest floor (or leaf liter,) in order to form a satis factory sed bed. We were also in formed that the old theory of “ Survival o f the Fittest” applies to trees, as many o f them cannot ■withstand the winds, soil erosion, and the 'Hvolfish” nature o f other trees. A t our last stop, we viewed one o f the greatly-advertised ar tificial farm ponds. The guide explained just how the pond was constructed and its uses. Not on ly would it be a life-saver—or we might say, a house and bam -saver—in case of fire, but at fhe same time, the home o f bass, blue gills, and catfish. Observing examples o f soil e- rosion, gullies, strip farming, tre- racing, and contour plowing oc cupied most o f our time; howev er. Throughout the trip we learn ed many facts in regard to these practices. A s a follow-up o f the trip, stu dents were encouraged to write an original essay on some phase o f conservation. These essays will b » judged from the standpoints o f criginalty in presentation, writing skill, and English merit, ge&soj apd county awards wiH be presented to winners. Central Ohio Teachers Assn.

NedforDetentionHomeBuilding StatedbyChildWelfareBoai Need fo r a juvenile receiving or detention home in Greene county was reaffirmed by'members of the Greene county child welfare board, meeting in monthly ses sion at Greene county children’s home recently. A recommendation that such a home be constructed here was made by the hoard last July and a $60,000 bond issue fo r the pro ject was certified six weeks ago by county commissioners. The issue, which will appear on ballots at the Nov. 7 election, calls for bonds to be retired, at a S per cent interest rate-, over a 10-year period. The levy, i f ap proved, would be outside the 10- mill limitation and would amount to 11 cents per $1,000 property valuation, according to County Auditor, James J. Curiett. The receiving building or cot tage for dependent, neglected or constructed on county property in the rear of the present children’s home. According to plans being prepareb dy Dan A. Carmichael, iQplumbus, architect, it would conform in appearance w th the present home and would be a one-story building with basement. It would connect with the child ren’s. home by an a^eaway or tunnel.
