I seek this responsible position in the belief that a

be a logical choice, having
more time and less outside
pressure as well as equal or _
greater interest in the wel—
fare of our schools and children.
It is commonly accepted
that in the years ahead we
face greater and more difficult. problems of finance,
methods of education and
housing for our schools. This,
I believe, isa full time problem requiring undivided attention. My Primary purpose

Children Pen Poems
About Conservation
California educational
circles recently were concerned with-the value, or
lack of value, of reading
and writing poetry in the
public schools.
But before any final decisions are made they should
examine the verse writing
skills of western Nevada
County public school students who produced some
creditable verse in the interests of the local observance of Conservation Weeks.
Ed Fellersen, county school
superintendent, offers the
three following poems as
possible justification for the
continuance of verse study
andwriting. The verses were
written by students of the
Pleasant Ridge School in the
5th and 6 grades. The instructor for the two grades is
James Desmond.
A GREAT FLAME
In the forest, the forest so
green
Stands a tree tall and lean.
But this tree plays a big, big
part .
But he won't if you leave a
' spark,
And this flame is very mean
Because it destroys! everything green.
Not only this tree will it
destroy
But others like it with much
more joy.
By Myrna Van Vooren, aged
10 years, Sth grade.
THE FOREST
When in the woods do you
know
That Life is-fast and life is
slow.
Take the deer who's on the
alert
For fear somehow it may get
hurt,
Take the woodchuck who
falls asleep
Wakens when spring begins
to seep
Into flowers, ferns and every
tree
That's how it is there, you

WILDLIFE
Animals are happy
! The forests are gay
Every forest animal
Is having a happy day
One day some very bad
people
Burned everything to the
ground,
Fire killed many animals
And destroyed everything
around.
If you were the animals
What would you say?
I'd say they're mean
And run away.

ROCKLIN --The proposition
on the April 16 ballot, calling forthe rearrangement of
the boundaries of the trustee
areas in Sierra J unior College

College District last year, it
became necessary for them
to have representation on the
board of trustees of the district.
This proposition provides
for two new trustee areas and
a modification of one of the
present five trustee areas.
The measure carries the full
support of the board of trustees of Sierra College, and
the County. Committees on

of Placer and Nevada Counties.
