Four out of ten grade school children are handicapped visually for proper school achievement. Few people in Mill City have any idea of the cost of vandalism here in town.

He said there is a stiff penalty for following a fire truck too closely. He also said many times people crowd in behind the truck, so volunteer firemen who do not reach the fire hall in time to ride the truck have a hard time get ting close to the fire.
