BOARD OF EDUCATION The schools receive their money from two main sourcesgfrom local taxes and from State funds. Unfortunately, no city in Chio can operate its schools on the income it receives from these two sources. In addition to the money received from the local taxes and from the State, it is necessary to have a special levy voted by the people. In Lorain, the people voted such a levy one year ago. This levy produced more than 3i100,000, or about one seventh of the total amount necessary to meet the annual budget. Had the people not voted this levy, our schools would have had to close last December because there would not have been sufficient money to operate. The citizens of Lorain have always been very loyal to our schools and have shown a fine school spirit. They realize that to have good schools, money must be provided for their operation. Our Board of Education has made a splendid record during the depression years in their efficient administration of our school finances. Each year they have the ref sponsibility of spending more than S700,000 for the operation and maintenance of the schools and for the retirement of school bonds. Although most schools in Ohio, as well as in other States, had to close their schools for many weeks and teachers had to have many payless pay days during the past few years, Lorain was compelled to close its schools for a comparatively short period and our teachers were not forced to wait long for their pays. The citizens of Lorain have a right to be proud of the Board of Educaf tion. The members receive no salary for their services, yet they work many hours during the year to help give the boys and girls of Lorain the advantages of a modern high school education. They have a high ideal of community service. The Board consists of S. V. Burley, M. D., President, Mr. Walter Nielsen, Mrs. W. Grall, Mr. D. D, Lawrence, and Mr. Philip Austin, and deserves the congratulations of all citizens of Lorain.
