I feel it is terrible that our

Helen, will have a hard time

Feature Indicates
Medford School
System 'Excellent'
How does the Medford school
system rale in comparison to
others throughout the nation?
This question was asked by a
Mail Tribune reader last week,
who had read a feature article
in the Family Weekly supple
ment to the Sunday Mail Tribune
of May 26. The article gave a
series of criteria for judging a
school system.
Gets Top Hating
The reader suggested that Med
ford's schools be rated on the
questions given in the article.
This has been done, and Med
fofd shows up as "excellent."
Total possible points from the
quiz are 36. or 3 points per
question, with Medford schools
making 31.
Divisions in the article and
Medford's results for each follow:
Average expenditure per year
per child, more than $300, three
points: students per teacher, be
tween 25 and 30. two points; pay
for teachers, more than S4.200.
three points: average students
per elementary schools, more
than 300. two points.
High School Enrollment
Average high school enroll
ment, between 300 and 1.000
three points (Medford high school
will surpass 1.000 next year,
however ): number of teachers
! per child holding doctor's or
master's degree, between 10 and
30 per cent, two points: number :
of teachers per school with 1
j "emergency certificate," less!
than 10 per cent, three points; !
; number of high school students !
' w ho drop out before graduation, j
less than half, three points: per- j
centage of high school gradu-i
ales w ho go on to colege, 30 to j
40 per cent, two points.
Special services, special in- j
struction for speech and other j
basic deficiencies, and psychia- j
trie counseling, all three, three ;
points: physical education pro-;
grams, regular instruction plus ;
interscholastic and intramural j
athletic competition, three points
and playground facilities, be
tween two and five acres play
ground per school, two points.
Answers to the quiz are based
on a national survey taken by
the White House Conference on
Education.
Medford Man Found
Innocent of Charge
Roy Reynolds, 36. of North
Fir st., was found innocent by
circuit court jury' Wednesday of
driving while under the influ
ence of intoxicating liquor.'
Reynolds was arrested by city
police on Jan. 15. In municipal
court, he was found guilty of the
charge and fined S100. Through
his attorney, O. H. Bengston,
Reynolds appealed the case to
circuit court- The trial started

In her distress about Helen,
Cora's thinking has gone way
off the track on the subject of
adoption or faking in foster

take a child solely to be used
as a companion for her daugh

this basis from any reliable
agency. If she and her husband
love children and want to have
more of them, that is another
story.

Just hold onto them. The rate of interest a Savings Bond pays increases with
year an owner holds it, until maturity. Therefore, the best idea is to buy the new
and hold the old.
Why are Savings Bonds better than cash ?
Because cash lost, stolen or destroyed is gone forever. But the U. S. Treasury
will replace Savings Bonds, including interest earned, without cost to you.
