Seven courses are offered: College Preparatory, Vocational Agriculture, Vocational Home Economics, Commercial, Music, Manual Arts, and General. Special advantages are offered students to participate in dramatic, athletics, orchestra, band and other school organizations. Few high schools can offer more to students than can Pigeon high school. Here there is a friendly, helpful atmosphere, thoroughly trained teachers, complete courses of study, athletic opportunities and fine musical opportunities.

This excellent program will be carried on in a well equipped building which has been completly redecorated and thoroughly cleaned for the fall opening. Pigeon high school is accredited by the University of Michigan and the North Central Association of Colleges and Secondary Schools and has been given the highest possible rating. The used book exchange will function as in the past. Three busses will convey grade and high school students over the same routes as last year.

Pigeon Board of Education (Continued From Page One) Lakes Greyhound Lines, told newspaper editors at Escanaba that helicopter service. would be made available after the war to 40 cities in Michigan as soon as equipment corporation has applied to the federal government for permit to operate a national system of heliocopter transportation. A hearing IS to be held in October.

As the Greyhound officials envision the role of 1 the helicopter, more people will live in the country while working in the city; airline travel will be vastly facilitated by heliocopter service connecting large ropolitan airports and downtown districts; inaccessible areas in vacation country will be opened up for air travel for the first time without the necessity of huge expenditures for airports. In brief, "the helicopter will cut half the travel time between the north part of Michigan and the population centers to the south." Mr. Lucas also predicted that the new ease and speed of travel will extend the Michigan tourist season from two to six months, "since more and more people will travel north for business and for fishing in the spring, hunting in the fall, and winter sports." If this war-time creation, the heliocopter, can achleve these gains for Michigan, we will be doubly blessed. Perhaps here is one of the unforeseen benefits of war which setence makes possible when driven by necessity of national self-preservations. It may revolutionize the Michigan of tomorrow, bringing new enjoyments of living to our people, Search for natural resins was stimulated by the cutting off of imports of some types of resins from foreign sources and the diversion of some chemicals uned in making synthetic resins to war uses.

The result of prospecting is expected to result in a permanently adequate supply of the domestic fossil resins for the PIGEON PROGRESS, PIGEON, MICHIGAN, Our Merchant Marine Pepper and Salem, so dominated 44 the Pepper and Spice Trade that the Dutch East Indies became known as the "Salem East Indies" Salem ships combing the East Indies and South Sea Islands for sea snails, birds nests, pearls, shell and sandalwood, for the China trade, found wealth in pepper, whose source was then a native secret.
