The 'Michigan Education SoV ciety has • announced that the
^ahowinfi of "The School Story''
will be presented over nine TV
stations in Michigan including
WOOD-TV, Grand Rapids, and
WKZO-TV, Kalamazoo. It is a
16-week series of one-half hour
educational kinescope recordings^
"The School Story" dramatizes such problems as: what happens to a child in a crowded
classroom, how a school meets
the challenge of potential delinquency, how a community builds
a new school, and what good
schools mean to industry.
Also included in the series is
a documentary on Dr. Conant's
high school report, n a r r a t e d by
George Bellamy, and a report on
the growth of higher education
in this community.
The recordings make up the
first national non-commercial
television series to be built
around the problems, aims and
achievements of American
, , .. edu-„
cation. The primary objective of
- the .series is to increase the

Have pictures of old olive trees,
which they say never die, and
so it is possible thaf some of the
trees were here when Jesus
walked in the garden and climbed to the top of Olive.
Today we visited the Church
of the Nativity and saw the place
where Christ was born in a manger.
This is a rocky country and
everything is built of stone. The
so-called manger is in a cave
in a mountain of rock. The people live and work in these rocks.
The walls of Jerusalem also
•serve as homes. I do not know
what kind of toilet facilities they
have, probably none.
I also was in the mosque of
Omar where they have rugs
worth millions of dollars. The
moslems are now. working on
restoring a mosque which was
damaged by bombs during the
Arab-Jewish war. It will be a
very beautiful structure, especially the interior, when completed several years hence.
I also went down into sort of
a cave and saw the pool of Bethsaida, now almost covered with
buildings.
Jerusalem has been destroyed six times and rebuilt, each
time on top of the old ruins. In
some places they have found evidences of the old city 100 and
more feet below the present levels. The old city is surrounded
by a wall about 30 feet high and
at least twice as thick.
I saw the area where Solomon's temple once stood, now
mostly a vacant area. The guide
told us the temple occupied an
area of 14,000 square feet and
it certainly was big. They say
that during the feast of the Passover, more than two million
Jews would come to Jerusalem
and most of them would mill
around and within the temple.
The house where Herod lived
still stands in one corner of the
area. There are a thousand and
one things of interest here and
I fear ,1 will not be able to write
about all of them.
Damascus, Syria
Jan. 24, 1960
There were many grand sights
in Egypt to be sure, but I would
not want to live there, nor in
Syria as far as that is concerned. But compared to Egypt,
Damascus is a very clean city
better place to live. Peoare clean and appear
to b6 healthy.
Last night, for the first time
since leaving the beautiful Shepheard's Hotel in Cairo, I slept
in a heated bedroom and did not
suffer from the cold during the
night.
This morning we were in the
groto house of Ananias where
the Apostle Paul went to regain
his sight after being blinded on
the road to Damascus. We al^o
visited several mosques and ^
other historic sites.
The new part of Damascus is
very modern. Residences are
mostly multiple apartments of
stone or cement ^nd very attractive.
The street, called straight, in
Jerusalem, is a mile long
and is very narrow. It is
lined with shops on both sides.
There are several blocks with
many smal!^ shops displaying
nothing but shoes. Here it seems
you may dress in any manner
your fancy dictates and still be
ready for the street. ^
This is a school vacation period and so we saw thousands of
children, many of them playing
in the streets. They were all
well clothed for the cool weather
and seemed healthy and. happy.
Dental Care Panel
Held By Local PTA
An educational program on
"Dental Care for School Children" was presented last week
at a meeting of the Montague
Parent Teacher Association.
Drs. Kenneth Johnson, Samuel
Duvall, David Hogan, Emmert
Lange, Burl Colbum, and Robert Rector, members of the Muskegon County Dental Society,
held a panel discussion highlighting such points as detecting
decay, diet control, hygiene, orthodontia, etc. Slides were also
shown to illustrate the program.
Peter Barber conducted the
business meeting and plans were
considered to sponsor a commedy play some time in March.
A social hour followed and refreshments were served by the
Seventh Grade room mothers
with'Mrs. William Ryan acting
as chairman. Mrs. Kowalski's
Kindergarten class was presented the room award for having
the most parents attending the
meeting.

a godd time to ask yourself whether you
are able to take full advantage of the benefits of today's wonderful electrical living.
Have new developments in home appliances, lighting, heating and air conditioning outmoded the wiring in your home? Is
old-fafehioned wiring keeping you from enjoying the comfort, convenience and safety
of moflem electrical living? If the answer to
either of these questions is "yse." or even
"maybe," ask your wiring contractor wl\at

and to visit special events in
nearby towns and cities; Scouts
have learned special skills such
as folk dancing, leather work,
-horsemanship, first aid and handicrafts.
The Girl Scouts sponsored the
first "learn-to-swim" program
at the Whitney pool, which has
now been taken over by the Rotary Club.
. The girls help to support the

tention on the question of . labor
influence on Williams.
The Governor and, organized
labor have been on opposite sides
of major issues.
Some say it is a deliberate
thing, contrived to refute claims
his administration is controlled
by labor.
Others insist there have been
honest differences of opinion. '
An early inkling came when
\ttorney General Paul L. Adams announced his plans for
fighting a suit by Michigan AFLCIO President August Scholle to
force reapportionment of the
Senate.
Democrat Adams split his staff
into two teams - to argue both
sides of the use-sales tax suit
last year. Democratic leaders,
who favored reapportionment,
had expected Adams to do the
same on the Scholle- suit. He
didn't, instead took a . stand
against Scholle.
Many capitol insiders say Adams' stand on reapportionment
was one reason he was bypassed
when there was a vacancy on
the Supreme Court.
Most obvious Williams - labor
split this year was over a "compromise" plan for calling a constitutional convention.
Williams endorsed a plan that
would have convention delegates
elected from both Senate and
House districts.
Scholle said he would go all
out to fight this compromise, contending selection by House districts would be the only way
population centers could get fair
representation at a convention.
Williams said he had to differ

What could be worse? You're in the middle
of an exciting hand of cards and the telephone rings. But there's no reason in the
world why you should go running through
the house. It's so much easier to have a
. convenient telephone extension-right at

In fact, the whole family will love having:

in order to give Michigan a
chance at a new constitution.
Scholle said the principle invoh^
ed left no.room for compromise.
Future differences are expected over the matter of what tax
questions will go on the November ballot.
Williams has indicated a willingness to get the sales tax increase proposition before voters,
a proposal he kept off the April,
1959, ballot.
Labor leaders have expressed
no desire for having the sales
tax' question on the ballot. If
the sales tax does get on the ballot, they also would like a corporation profits tax on the ballot a s an alternative.

MERGER MOVES will be tried
again this year as the Legislature and Governor continue their
efforts at streamlining state government.
A half dozen reorganization
proposals were adopted last
year. A like number may be
tried again this year.
The expected brevity of the
1960 session may prevent action
on all proposals to be made by
a citizens advisory group on reorganization.
Among proposals to be considered is one that would create a
department of financial institutions consolidating the corporation and securities commission
and the banking and insurance
departments.
- A state commerce department
would take over the duties of
the economic development department, the tourist council
and
commissions
promoting
farm products.
The labor department, workmen's compensation department
and other labor-related functions
would be consolidated by another reorganization proposal
under discussion.
WHAT HAPPENED to Michigan's aroused citizenry?
This is a question planners of
the Citizens for Michigan movement were asking at the start
of the-year's second month.
American Motors President
George Romney, CFM founder,
came close to running for office
because he feared citizen apathy
might undermine Citizens for
Michigan. He still has hopes of
redruiting the 100,000-plus citizens he says he needs to make
his movement effective, although
only about 2,000 had signed up
by the end of January.
Citizen support will be sought
in the coming months by the
Michigan Chamber of Commerce
and both political parties.
One group of men — the planners of Michigan Week — have
had no trouble recruiting citizen participation.
At last count there were about
6,000 people serving on committees for the May 15-21 observance.

a century ago, was recently rer u i f t n the Johnson County (Ind.)

'SA man about 46 years of age,
giving the name of Joshua Coppert^mith, has been arrested in
New York for attempting to ext o r t funds from ignorant and superstitious people by exhibiting
a dfevice which he says will convey the human voice any distance over metallic wires so that

of those who know the success
of the latter instrument without
understanding the principles on
whibh it is based.
"Well-informed people know
that it is impossible to transmit

28 Million Acres
Out Of Production In
Land Conservation
About 28 million acres of the
Nation's cropland will be held
out of production next year under Conservation Reserve contracts which were in effect pr
were applied for in 1959, the U.
S. Department of Agriculture
has announced in a year-end report.
Land in the Conservation Reserve is held out of production
to help ease the farm surplus
situation and is kept in conservation uses to meet future needs.
During the lift of a Conservation Reserve contract, no crop
may bfr harvested from the Reserve acreage. The land may not
be used for grazing, and no new
land may be placed in cultivation. If there is additional cropland on the farm, which is not
in the Reserve, total crop acreage must be reduced by the
amount of the Conservation Reserve acreage.
About 22.4 million acres were
out of production under this program during the 1959 crop season, and more than 5 million
new acres are expected to go
into the Reserve in 1960 as a
result of the signup last fall.
Farms on which all the cropland is out of production account
for about 14.8 million acres, or
two-thirds of the total amount of
cropland under contract in 1959.
A special incentive is offered for
whole farm contracts since they
remove the entire crop production potential of the farm and
leave no land for more intensive
farming. Also, livestock production generally is reduced or
eliminated on such farms.
A farmer who places all his
cropland in the Conservation Reserve may continue to live on
the farm, maintain a home garden, and use the permanent pasture and orchard land.
The land in the Conservation
Reserve in 1959, amounting to
about 5 percent of the Nation's
total cropland, would normally
have produced large quantities
of farm commodoties to add to
existing surpluses, the Department points out. A current survey shows that 3.5 million of the
acres were formerly devoted to
corn, 3.5 million acres to grain
sorghum, 2.3 million acres to
wheat, and .nearly 12 million
acres to other crops, including
forage.
