If you ask an older person to tell you their age they will often say, "Oh, 29." Then they'll laugh, and you'll be none the wiser. Here's a way to trick people into telling you their age. Ask someone to do the following arithmetic without letting you see what they're writing. Their answer will tell you their age and the month they were born in. Asia person to write down: 1.The number of the month they were born in (e.g. August is the 8th month, December the 12th, etc.) 2.Multiply that number by 2 3. Add 5 4.Multiply by 505. Add their age 6.Subtract 365 7.Add 115 8.Tell you the answer The answer will have 3 or 4 numbers in it. The last two numbers Al tell you how old the person who did the math is, and the first one or two what month they were horn in.

Haaron is still among the 11 which can, but by very dfl;.,e," noted Mrs. Wallace. She went on to say the board has fewer students to transport, but the same miles to cover at an ever incising cost ,t r mile. "With fewer students, some inventories can be reduced, eg. the number of typewriters, but a certain complement of equipment trust. be maintained if the schools are to operate. Almost all grants are paid on a per student basis while the cost off supplies continue to escalate at an 11 to 13 per- cent rate. And on top of that is the seven percent sales tax," the chairman said. The chairman said night and summer school continue to operate in Huron County but at reduced levels. "The remedial elementary summer school is in jeopardy for this summer unless parents are walling to pay substantially higher fees," added Mrs. Wallace. On enrollment, Mrs. Wallace noted that the elementary level "appears to have stabalized for over the next three years at about 6,700 children." "The decline continues, however, in the secondary panel and we will likely lose 300 students during that tflrne. It will stabilize in 1985 at about 3,400 students. This estimate may be upset in our favor by more students returning to school due to economic conditions as it was this past year," said Mrs. Wallace. "In spite of gloomy predictions, Mr. (Robert) McCall (superintendent of program) hammers away at improving the state of program in our system," said Mrs. W .::lace.

The chairman also made mention of working to im- prove communications within the board system. "We shall proceed with probing the problem of improving communication begun in our November seminar.
