Many of us, understandably enough, begin to close our eyes and say no before we even open the envelope in our daily stack of mail. We know it contains another request for money that we cannot afford, much as we might like to. Yet what we need to support to our last penny are our children and their education. In most other aspects we have trained ourselves not to feel guilty for saying no, yet there is an exception:

Open your eyes for a moment and read Measure W for the coming election. Measure W protects children and their education alone, nothing else. Read the details to convince yourself. In a world full of flames, with war on earth and ill will to men, only well-educated children may hope to create a better world.

Thank you for saying yes to Measure W! You may close your eyes again.
