(Continued from page 1)
"if the decision is in favor of
incorporation as a school dis
trict, then stick to it. Remem
ber, you are trying to get for
your children a better deal out
of life than you had."
The actual steps leading to
formation of a district were
briefly outlined by Mr. Caldwell.
A petition is circulated calling
j for an election to decide the
[question. Once that petition is
filed, the district court of the
Third Division will schedule a
hearing date, so that objectors
may voice their opinions.
Following a favorable decision
at the hearing, the court will fix
the date for a special election
and will name an election com
mittee to formulate rules and
regulations for the election. This
committee is in complete charge
of the election.
Mr. Caldwell warned of two
pitfalls in the pre-election pro
cedure. He advised special care
in choosing workers to cir
culate the petition calling for
an election, and further advis
ed that legal assistance be
called lo draft the petition.
The administration of an i
corporated school district is cc
ducted entirely through t h“
school board, he said. This fiv
member board is chosen at tl
time of the special election,
existing school board membei
wish to retain their office, the:
too, must file at the time of th
election. Three members serv
for a two-year term and two fo
a one-year term.
The tax assessor and tax col
lector necessary for the admin
istration of an incorporated dis
trict are named by the sclw
board.
Questioned regarding the
length of time it would take tc
put a program into operation in
the Valley, Mr. Caldwell replied
that it might take six month to
disseminate information and ed
ucation. He said if action were
taken immediately and r'AShed
to its conclusion, it might be pos
sible to hold a special election
within 90 days. In any case, he
added, no tax money could be
received in less than a year’s
time.
Wasilla Homemakers
Get Sewing Tips
By Mrs. Martin Olson
Mrs. Wenter Harvey was host
ess to members of the Wasilla
Homemakers club at a recent
noon luncheon held in the church
building.
Miss Marilyn Johnson, home
demonstration agent, was pres
ent and gave a most instructive
demonstration on sewing meth
ods. Even seasoned seamstresses
remarked that they had learned
several new sewing tricks.
Roll call for the day was an
answer to the problem of “ways
of saving waste foods.” Most
practical of the ideas advanced
was probably that which sug
gested, "When you have scraps
left over that the dog doesn’t
like and won’t eat, then just fix
them up into some fancy con
coction and feed thetn to your
husband.”
New members welcomed into
the club at this meeting were
Mrs. Harold Harris, Mrs. J.
Levan and Mrs. Dan Hurst.
The next regular meeting of
the Homemakers will be a Val
entine party to be held at the
Martin Olson home on Feb. 13
at 7:30 p.m.

People Have Fun,
Firemen Profit
At Saturday Ball
Although the facts and figures
of the financial side of the pic
ture aren't available yet, Bill
Cook, chairman of last week’s
Fireman’s Ball, reports that the
affair was a decided success.
Inclement weather and icy
roads limited attendance to Val
ley residents only, but they
flocked to the Steve Ward build
ing to fill the dance hall to ca
pacity.
“The music was good, every
body had fun, and we all got
along together just fine,” is the
way one Ball-goer summed up
the evening. Already the firemen
have received requests for more
such dances, the planning corr
mittee reports.
Mr. Cook is working on a Ball
balance sheet now, and will have
figures for publication later this
week, he promises.
Store Door Smashed
In Attempted Theft
The glass door at the front en
trance of Bert’s drug store, wf^
smashed sometime last Wednes
day evening or early Thursday
morning. Apparently the work
of sneak thieves, a heavy object
was thrust through the glass near
the latch. Evidently the robbers
hoped the door was locked by
only a night latch, and that it
could be opened by reaching
through to the inside and releas
ing the catch.
Since the door was double
iocked, no further damage was
ittempted by the would-be
lieves.
