May the sweet old Chrisi-
mas story bring to you this
year a deeper meaning . • •
a larger store of its Joy and
peace and gladness than it
ever has before.
The tangle of pulley and ropes that
prevented the sunset lowering of Old
Glory at the Grammar school building
was finally unraveled by a steeple
Jack, who managed to reach the top
of the 65 foot staff after attaining a
greater part of the distance through
climbing a series of ladders.
A crew of painters stragped the
ladders together and one of them went
up some 60 feet and from that point
managed to make his way to the top,
where he eliminated the tangle that
had prevented the lowering of the
flag.
Prior to the effort by the painters,
Eddie Hogan, a ten year old negro
youth who resides at 1713 Campbell
street, had managed to “shinny” up
the-pole to the pulley, but failure to
have a knife with him to cut the hal
yard prevented any solution to the
problem of the ever-flying flag.
The spectacle of the national emb
lem flying through the night hours
provoked many complaints from cltl
sens, but after the predicament was
explained in The Chronicle, the public
was satisfied to let the school au
thorities work out the problem in the
most suitable manner..
