Shelby presents the rather un usual spectacle of a town taking up a collection to keep its high school going nine months. Funds available from the tax budget, it seems, only takes care of eight months, due, -If we are not mis taken, to the fact that Shelbyltes some time ago voted down a pro posed slight increase in the tax rate for schools. Now the scholars, the parents, the Parent-Teachers association, business men, every body is casting Into the hat to keep the schools going This shows more clearly what, the Shelby folks think of schools .than did their vote on the tax rate. We venture the assertion that before another year rolls around they will make provision for run ning a full nine months term of the city schools. Sometimes it takes something of a rather drastic nature to wake up i a community, just as it does to' wake up an individual. The pres- ! ent situation gives ample evidence! that Shelby prizes her schools very, highly and that she is not going ; to let the lack of funds deprive her children of school advantages, even i though voluntary donations arc * necessary.
