BOARD OF EDUCATION The schools are an essential part of a democracy. Without learning and knowledge, our civilization would soon decay. Realizing that schools are an essential part of any dem- ocratic country, the citizens of Ottumwa lib- erally support the public schools. Every year the voters go to the polls to choose citizens to govern the schools. Seven people make up the Board of Education. This year the seven are: Harold Wilson, Laurence Reedquist, G. W.Ix»crke, Airs. Alatt Lawrence, Harry Wing, C. I). Evans, and S. G. Rickard. 'Phis group deserves the praise and thanks of all because thev serve three year terms devot ing a great deal of time and they receive no compensation. Their duties are numerous. Among these are the approving of expenditures for equip- ment, determining of educational policies of the sixteen Ottumwa schools, selecting all teachers, custodians, office forces, buying edu- cational aids, textbooks, and the control of all maintenance. In the past, the Board of Education has made many long range plans, and this group is no exception. Already plans have beein drawn up for three new schools in various parts of town; junior highs on the south and east sides and a new Garfield school. The schools of Ottumwa are among the foremost in the state. Much of the credit for this must be given to Frank V. Dourna, the superintendent of schools for the past ten years. We should be most thankful that we have citizens interested enough in our welfare to devote time and effort in our l ehalf. We truly appreciate the work of our Board of Education. Row I H. V. Wilson.
