They are passing the orchids to the

Because street sweepers did not
prove satisfactory in removing dirt
from the streets, the cHy dads have
purchased a flusber. which flushes all
dirt and dust from the surface M the
pavMnents, mto the gutter and it is
then carried into the storm water
sewer system.
Then the city decided the children
needed organist recreiatlonal so the
city dads approved the hiring of
trained recreation director and an as
sistant director. ' ^
Now the school board has just ^m
pleted the purchase bf |17,<^ worth
of flne equipment for the vocational
department of the high schoM. This
has been purchased from the army
practically without cost, the only exr
pense being in connection with the ef
forts to secure same.
Including in the equipment is an
'$8,009 electroplating machine, a mor-
tlcer, saw woodworker, a, machine
cintonr doeill and two sewing ma
chines for the domestic science de
partment
As a matter of fact .the Lancaster
high school secured more equipmmit
from the Florence air base than any
other college or\ high school in the
country except Clemson college.'
Lancaster claims its vocational de
partment is the best equipped of any
high school in the South.
