“ — - 5 GATE CITY JOURNAL, THURSDAY, APRIL 13, 1933 from Lincoln county where the county unit plan has been in effect for nine years. THE GATE CITY JOURNAL During the nine years, Lincoln county built 23 new school buildings, paid for them in full and at the same time reduced warrant debt from $124,592 in 1923 to $13,915 in 1932 and bonded debt to $12,900. This was done in spite of the increase in tax delinquencies from 24 per cent in 1930 to 40 per cent in 1932. If taxes had been paid at the average rate of other years, Lincoln county could have paid all outstanding debts, said A. M. Cannon, district superintendent. W. P.

There is a very definite trend in that direction through the county unit; plan which has been placed into effect in several counties of Oregon. Some say the county unit plan is the only means of getting the operation of schools on a firm financial basis. Through the efforts of Miss Kistie V. Patch, teacher at Park school, a meeting will be held in Ontario today. The public has been invited and it is hoped the county unit plan will receive a thorough airing.

Baldridge s gg They do me wrong, who say I come no more When once I knock and fail to find you in; For every day I stand outside your door, And bid you wake and rise to fight and win. Wail not for precious chances passed away. Weep not for golden ages on the wane. Each night I burn the records of the day; At sunrise every soul is bom again. Perhaps it is the spring, when poetry is more in vogue than in any other season of the year, perhaps it is a mood, but whatever the cause, we enjoy the thought that the foregoing little verse by Walter Malone brings us at this | hour. g It is a new thought, as we have all been told that op portunity knocks but once, and once only at each man’s door. Unless he opens the door instantly, opportunity goes I her way, never to return. But instead of a single visit, Malone says opportunity will come again and again— urging man to rouse himself.
