Page 4 , March 7 , 1957 the giwss? county GUARDIAN License It At Home Buying athome is always.good business but you can under­ line that a couple of times when you buy.your 1957 license plates. The village where thelicense issold--in this case James­ town and Cedarville--receives funds from the state gaso­ line tax yi direct proportion to the number of vehicle l i ­ censes sold in its area. It works this way: The gasoline tax money that the state returns to the county is distributed in direct proportion to the number of licenses sold in the sub-division. That is on the theory that, for instance, 20 per cent of the vehicle owners are here and that 20 per cent of the gasoline taxes are paid here. So when it comes to dividing the tax money, it would al­ so follow that 20 per cent of the funds allocated to the county should go to Jamestown. That is just an example of how it works. It means dollars and cents to the village's street main­ tenance funds for you to buy your license at home. The increasing awareness of this factor has accounted for an increase from $1500 a few years ago in tax turnback to $4200 last year from Jamestown. If everybody buys their license athome this year, it should be m o r e ._______________________ ____ Things Are Looking Up plotice how the warmer air seems to quicken the pace these days? Winter is being shaken. The coils of cold are fallen in a new springtime. Sure, there's more chill mercury to be seen, maybe even a bit more snow--we can remember when there was alight fall of fluff on into May--but the soil is thawing and the farm is spawning new life. New animal life is starting, new feeding schedules are being worked out and market times being planned. More and more housewives will be picking up the neces­ sities of everyday life in the shopping areas of Jamestown and Cedarville as the men become more and more tied to their fields. Productivity again becomes the driving force. Farm life no longer means everyone sits idly through the winter, wait­ ing for spring. There's work to be done in die winter; and plenty of it. But it's not the same kind of work that makes a man glad he's a farmer--or living in a farming area. That feeling comes with spring. Plowing isn't far off. Close enough that the farmer is think­ ing of getting that tractor ready, sharpening those bottoms, checking hitches and going over the seed supply. Some ground is already broken. Activity is picking up. The post-holiday slack is off die retail outlets. Sales are bigger, not that a good deal of the income tax business is- out of the way. It's time now to buckle down and take a good, hard look at what 1957 has in store. And, at this point, the stock and substance of the current year looks good. There are adjustments to be made. New acreage allotments have to be watched, the com program has undergone a change and the prices of machinery gen­ erally are higher. But those adjustments will be made. The prices will be met. Production will rise even higher and 1957 promises profit. For Polio Shots— A few years ago the one word that could send a shiver of fear through most people was "polio. " Today, unfortunately, the still very active killer and cripr _r can only generate an uninterested shrug in most quar rs. Polio is licked, the people seem to think. Far from it. I t ’s not licked for the simple reason that polio-susceptible persons are not taking advantage of the wonder that is the Salk vaccine. XTList a few weeks ago, a Jamestown doctor took an infor­ mal poll at the local high school and found just a handful of students who had received their required three shots.) Both Ohio doctors and the American Medical Association have launched an attack against this frighte' ing apathy about polio. In a campaign opened this month, doctors are urging -everyone under the age of 40 to have their three Salk vac­ cine shots. The vaccine is proven. Not a single case of paralytic polio wasreported last year in which the victim had received his full quota of three shots. The time to start the shots is now because the full cycle of immunization consumes eight months—long enough to place us right in the middle of the polio season.
