Stanley Township some student's rode 45 miles morn- ing and night to get to school. Mr. Steckle, said that the routes were planned by the drivers' in co-opera- tion with ,the board, and that al- though some students had a long way to ride, a re-routing would probably mean more miles and more expense. A questioner asked why the board could not tender for buses every year instead cif\ every ten years. Mr. Steckle replied, that the,,board had, to please the de- partment of education—much the same as hiring a road superintend- ent, Another questioner asked if the time was coming when everyone would pay for education costs, not just 40 percent of the people. Mr. Steckle agreed that it was time something were done about this. II-re said soiree properties pay as little as $15 in education taxes. • Fred Watson, clerk of the town- ship, gave an itemized account of township expenses, He was chair- man of the meeting.
