tion Service showed the Grammar
School and High School a very in
teresting show on trees and their
care at the High School Friday,
wan. 11, 1846. Thjs picture showed
us how a farmer cared for his
trees in order to get a good price
. jr them. Everyone greatly en
joyed the picture and we want
*«x. Forrester to come back and
bring us more news on reforesta-
uon.
Visitors
Mr. George Brown of the State
Department and Mrs. Bertha
Harris, County Superintendent of
Education, were welcome visitors
to High School on Monday.
New Activity
For the first time the High
School has instituted a series of
Assembly programs put on by the
different home rooms each month.
The Tenth Grade under the di
rection of Miss Fuller presented
the first of these plays.
We were glad to have some of
cur parents present for this pro
gram and hope tha,t the others
will be well attended.
Chapel Program
The tenth grade had charge of
chapel Monday. Virginia ' Smith
read the scripture, and everyone
joined in the Lord’s Prayer. After
that the tenth grade presented a
one-act play, “School Spirit on
Trial”, principal character? wejre:
Judge — Marion Davis, Baliff —
Frank Lovelace, Prosecuting at
torney—Bobby Lpwe Huguley, At
torney for the defense — Perry
Brown, Defendant (first case) —
Louise Rice, Defendant (second
case) — JaequslXh ^ppjxette. Wit
nesses: Moses Wldeman, Dewey
Jennings, Margaret Mann, Betty
Lou Wedincamp.
The jury was composed of 12
other tenth graders.
The scene was laid in a court
room, where two. trials were cpn-
’ ducted.
We enjoyed the program very
much, and think the Juniors did
well. /
Beta Initiation
The members of the Beta Club
who joined this term were enter
tained by the senior- members
last Thursday night with an ini
tiation party.
The seniors were really the ones
entertained, though, by all the
crazy stunts the juniors were
made to do. Everyone had a
most enjoyable time. ^
The juniors were made to come
to school Friday dressed in vari
ous tacky ways.- This kept the
student body and faculty chuck
ling all day.
Members initiated were Dot
Brown, Rebecca Simpson, Eunice
Walk Bobby Lowe Hugutey, Marian
Freeland, Virginia Smith, and
Betty Edmunds. Senior members
are Lois Edwards, Richard Cul-
breath, Claude Huguley, Gary
Brown and George Bonnette.
' Chapel Visitors

us at Chapel last Monday morn
ing. He spoke on the importance
cf setting a high goal for our
selves and then putting forth our
best efforts to attain it.
T. B. Seal Sale
The sale of Tuberculosis Christ
mas Seals has been carried oxer
to the New Year. Since .this is
such A worthy cause, we hope
that every child will give as much
is possible. We are proud of tbe
cooperation of the grammar
school pupils, who always give
whole-heartedly to all worthwhile
activities.
Picture Show
We enjoyed a show at the high
school Friday afternoon, which
was sponsored by the Forestry
Service. It showed in an enter
taining way how extra income
can be obtained from our timber
lands without sacrificing saw
timber.
Visitors
Mrs. Paul Brown and Mrs. El
mer Creighton have been recent
visitors to our school.

H'
JSxample We Didn’t Set
A lot of grown men act like chil
dren while their country sutlers
humiliation and the rest of the
Wprld starves. Management gets
, •‘hurt feelings’* and stands on
what it imagines is its ’‘dignity,**
when the really dignified proced
ure would be the seeking of every
opening through which it could pos
sibly reach agreements with the
unions, and thus help its willing
Workers, its stockholders and its
country. The unions rush around
like bulls in china shops abusing
management out of one nostril and
government' out of the other, while
their leaders, unable to control the
communist extremists within their
own ranks, allow that un-American
clement to drag them into situa
tions which must eventually cur
tail all union labor’s privileges.
Government does little to remedy
the situation for fear cf losing the
labor vote. It still doesn't seem to
grasp the fact that there, are other?
who vote in this country beside
members of the CIO.
If—before these labor trou-
| bles were started r- the tnat>
| agements and unions, now iw
; volved, had shown tbe same
: patriotic spirit as did John l>.
J Lewis when he called off the
coal strike becaose he knew it
| would spell tragedy for the
, country in this out-of-balance
• period—we would have far less
; fear of the anti-democracy
I Ideologies which are sweeping
. Europe and percolating rapidly
| Into our own beloved land.
The half-wrecked world must
needs find some successful example
to follow in order to pull itself out
of the dreadful mire in which this
last war left it. It looked to Amer
ica first—to that resilient young
nation which had led the world in
war efficiency and which would
lead it back into the paths of free
dom and plenty. What does it find?
A small but obstructive minority
of snarling industrialists and pro
fessional labor unionists squeezing
the nation’s jugular vein as appre
hensive lawmakers stand around
and allow the Red Star of Russia to
outshine the Golden Eagle of "The
Last Democracy”; and we the peo
ple look on with our mouths open
and you’d even Uft a torpid finger
to shako It at these offenders.

Joint Damaged Before Bad
Teeth Were Removed
By Dr. J. B. Warren
rr£,
|V
Your dentist tries to save de
cayed or infected teeth by re
moving the pulp which includes
the nerve. Should any symptoms
such as joint pains occur or re
turn he usuaUy removes these
dead or pulpless teeth. Unfor
tunately, damage to the joint oc
curred before these teeth were
removed and this damage can
not be overcome ip any way.
Heat, massage, and salicylates
give considerable relief.
