Schumacher Author
Of Pamphlet Article
County Assessor Ray J.
Schumacher is author of an
article on depreciation stud
ies in the February pamphlet
on technical valuation pub'
lished by the American Ap
praisers Society.
"Depreciation when applied
to real estate improvements
will apply only to the individ
ual property, and will vary
as to age, maintenance, use,
utility, design, hazards, bene
fits and economic changes,"
Schumacher pointed out.
In the article, the Jackson
county assessor explains the
difficulties m making an ap
praisal and considering de
preciation. He defines such
factors as age obsolescence
and physical deterioration,
functional obsolescence and
economic obsolescence.
Depreciation is loss in dol
lar value from new to current
age and condition. Past de
preciation is not percentage
and future depreciation is not
annuity, Schumacher said.

Jackson School
Bill Jacobs, a master
musical novelties, presented a
musical show to the Jackson
school student body. Musical
instruments were drums,
goose horns, musical skillets,
Swiss song bells, vibra-harp,
puppets, and the chromatic
musical bottles. The main in
strument was the marimba.
Jacobs showed .speed, pre
cision, and colorful playing
on the novelty instruments.
This was one of our National
School assemblies paid by
the student body from funds
obtained from the April
Frolic.
Mrs. Myrna Dean and her
second grade students have il
lustrated on the bulletin
board three books: "The
Country Bunny" by DeBose
Heyward, "The B u n n y's
Easter Gift" by Bill and Ber
nard Martin and "The Egg
Tree" by Katherine Milhous.
Bruce Matheny of R u c h
school visited the 6M class
Thursday. Matheny is inter
ested in the science reading
research program. The fourth
class in this program began
at 8:10 a.m. Monday,
Mrs; Angela Thompson's
fourth grade class presented
a play entitled, "A Family in
Space," to the PTA and- the
student body recently.
The theme of the play cen
tered around a classroom sit
uation, and the guest speaker,
Professor Stellar. The profes
sor, played by Ron Havniear,
directed the situation while
the various planets gave their
own presentation of their im
portance to the solar system.
Also of importance was the
role of the Sun, played by
James Mercer, and Charlie
Comet, portrayed by Terry
Witter.
The production was in the
Jackson school auditorium.
The stage was decorated with
a large picture of a space
ship, and the back wall was
covered with a mural of the
planets scaled in relation to
the size of the sphere.
The students had a good
time preparing the production
as well as learning a great
deal from the study of the
script. All children in the
room participated.
Miss Edna Smith from West
Side visited the three second
grades Friday.
Neil G. My niece refuses
to move to a boarding school.
Irene S, - I'm not a delin
quent and no trouble to him.
.
Neil G. - This is a sordid
tale, involving my headstrong
sister who died at 35 after
three marriages. I'm only 28
but the social agency has
given me temporary custody
of my sister's only child,
Irene, who's 14 and the prod
uct of her first marriage.
I'm unmarried, not exact
ly qualified to watch over an
adolescent girl in my small
apartment. Her natural father
has abandoned her, and my
sister's subsequent husbands
have no interest in her wel
fare. Irene knows that her stay
in my. home is only a make
shift, until an application for
her admission to a residential
shelter is processed. But she
clings to me, and refuses to
show up for the medical
exams.
Irene S. - There's nothing
the matter with me, so I don't
see why I must live in an
institution with delinquents
and addicts. All I need is a
home and someone who cares
about me. I have that with
Uncle Neil.
Since my mother's death,
the agency and the guidance
teacher at school have been
trying to "place" me, but
nothing worked out until
now. First I lived with a step
sister, then with a foster fam
ily. Each time something
went wrong, like my step
sister getting engaged, or the
foster parents fighting.
My schoolwork is at a stand
still because of my worries.
Now Uncle Neil can help me
with homework, and I can
help him with housework.
The Council: AJler so much
buffeting, Irene understand
ably is weary and wary. We
hasten, therefore, to try to re
store her faith in the adults -Uncle
Neil, the guidance
teacher, the social worker
who, as surrogate parents,
have her long range welfare
and interests at heart and in
mind. They will not lump her
with "delinquents and ad
diets." It's true that Irene has been
handed a particularly rough
deal. Her predicament re
minds us of the crushing bur
dens weighing upon many of
our high school students to
whom we try to teach algebra,
Latin, citizenship. Because of
the recklessness and irrespon
sibility of their parents, those
youngsters want answers to:
Who loves me? Who'll help
me? Whom can I trust? And
teachers try to understand.
But Irene still has mettle
and spunk. Her distant star
may be a home of her own
some day, in which to give a
husband and children the
warmth and love she never
had. And the direct path to
that star is the group-living
to which she is being steered.
The right environment can
make the difference. Irene is
too young to sec all the
reasons why a 28 year old
uncle's flat isn't the answer
for an orphaned, neglected,
abandoned, and confused teen
ager. But one reason is that
a 14-ycar-old needs a father
and a mother, or a reasonable
facsimile found often In the
"cottage plan" residential
schools for homeless girls.
These offer a fnmily "feel
ing," with a cluster of "sis
ters" sharing life under the
roof of a trained married
couple.
