^ost ELEMENTARY SCHOOL Walter C. Taylor, Lee Irwin, Co-Publishers Entered at the Post Office at Sandy, Clackamas County, Oregon as second class matter under the Act of Congress of March, 1879.

Sandy Post, Sandy, Oregon Page THE BANQUET by Connie Berger $2 Annual Subscription Last Friday about 5:30 p.m. excited 8th grade students began arriving at the school for thier graduation banquet. Everyone was radiantly dressed in his best from the boys’ sleek suits to the girls’ frills and ruffles. The 7th graders had done some very effective decoration with class colors of coral and gold. The air was filled with excite ment as we ate the meals prepar ed by our cafeteria cooks and serv ed by 8th and 7th grade waitres ses. After the wonderful meal, top ped by a strawberry sundae, the program began, which consisted of the reading of the class history, will, and prophecy. The program was light and gay, but ended on a quieter, melancholy note as we realized our grade school days will soon be only warm, lasting memories. May 21, III« I I oters I ht Think! Residents of the city of Sandy came through with flying colors in the last civ ic election on May 15. Water meters and fire consolidation were passed by large majorities. All of which proves that American vot ers, presented with a problem that has been adequately explained, generally do the right thing. Communication, in this case as in many others, was the stumbling block. When the water meter and fire district consolidation situations were presented in an understandable manner, the public reacted intelligently. When measures are placed before the public in legal gobble-de-gook, a good many of us vote ‘against’ when we meant to vote ‘for.’ In this election Sandy has made two great leaps forward. It has established an equitable manner of distributing water and it has advanced its fire protection fa cilities at minimum expense to the tax payer. Mayor Mike Paluck has been instru mental in fostering both of these ad vancements. He is to be congratulated on the success of this vote. Sometimes his is a thankless job this trying to make peo ple vote to save their own money. He has worked tirelessly with the able and constant assistance of city clerk and the council to get these measures ap proved by the people. The Post sincerely hopes that Mike will be with us for a long time in his present administrative capacity. TRACK by Dale Bowder May 13 we had our third track meet of the season.
