This ievy, together with the rural school district levy of 41.5 mills requires an over-all levy of 61.2 mills in the local district. For the coming year, as has been stated, the Rural School district levy should approximate 22.6 mills. Dist. No. 17 bond in terest and serial levy would re quire 10.6 mills and the addi tional amount over the 6% lim itation 20.6 mills or an over all total of 53.8 mills in the local district. Thus, even if the present eval uation of the county and local district should remain the same the millage levy could drop 7.4 mil’s. However. Dist. No. 17 val uation has increased an average of $91.332.50 per year tor the past two years Thus Dist. No. 17 is one of the “almost every district" in Curry county which the County’ school superintend ent states “will need be neces sary to have an election to ex ceed the 6% limitation to levy the additional amount necessary to maintain the schools.” Service Above Self Was Rotary Topic Rev. Coyne Gifford, Presbyter ian minister of Ukiah, and pres ident-elect of the Ukiah Rotary Club, was principal speaker at Tuesday luncheon of Brookings Club, telling of the “Indisjxmsi- ble Man.” “Service Above Self,” long has been the motto of Rotary, the speaker said in preface, and it always bears out that those who do most for their community for their families, for their schools, for their lodges, reaches the goal they little thought of. Mankind when it functions unselfishly, is always happier. Mankind which is unselfish is also the healthier, and happier. He praised the local club on its friendliness, as this was the second time he had visited lo cally. He said that he was glad of the opportunity to come here as speaker, and w'ished to come again, even as a visitor.
