CHAPPPELLS SCHOOL . . .
(Continued from page 1)
Former students of the Chap
pells school have taken their share
of medals and honors wherev’er
they have continued their educa
tion. The valedictorian of this
year s graduating class at Silver-
street high school was a Chap
pells student, Miss Sandra Adams.
In the past four years, an ath
letic trophy was awarded at the
Ninety Six high school to t Ji e
outstanding football player, and
three times this was won by stu
dents from Chappells, John Scur
ry, Jay Blackman and Bill Scur
ry. A large number of former
Chappells students are nurses and
others have gone into the business
and profesional world.
Chappells can probably boast of
more students entering the teach
ing profession than many larger
schools. Among them are Mrs.
Jessie Fellers Castine, the late
Harold Fellers, Miss. Frances
Webb, Mrs. Popie Coleman Harps,
Mrs. Mary Frances Coleman
Lawnes, Mrs. Caroline Keith Her-
long, Miss Elizabeth Keith, Mrs.
Mary Brooks Eaddy, Mrs. Irene
Dipner Parnell, Mrs. Popie W'ebb
Coleman, Mrs. Louise Connelly
McAdams, Mrs. Vivian Arant
Montgomery, J&ke Arant, Earle
Boazman, Mrs. Josie Boazman
Dominick, Miss Rhoda Dominick,
James Scott Boozer, Miller Sum*'
mers. Miss Lillie Mae Workman,
Mrs. Frances Scurry Dyars, Carl
ton Coleman, Mrs. Marguerite
Webb Crumpton, Claude Sharpe,
the late Miss Margaret Watkins,
and Miss Daisy Clark Watkins.
Fifteen of these still live in the
Chappells community and teach
in the nearby area.
Chappells has produced > four
doctors, the lace Dr. W. A. Hol
loway, and Doctors Jordan Hollo
way, Gerald Scurry, and C. H.
Workman. Mrs. Jean Coleman
Robinson is home demonstration
agent; Rev. Grady Summer is a
Baptist minister, the late Pro
bate Judge Neal W. Workman
was a native of Chappells as was
the former county .auditor, Pinck
ney N. Abrams.
Two teachers died while teach
ing at Chappells, Miss Clarice
Fore and Jessie Lott. Two teach
ers who served efficiently for
many years were Mrs. S. S. Arant
and Miss Mary Fore. Both live
in Chappells now and are contin
uing to contribute to the cultural
life of the community.
Of the permanent residents of
Chappells, fully ninety per cent
of those students who finish high
schools continue their education
in colleges, business schools, or
nurses training schools.
The people of the Chappells
community, as in any other com
munity, feel deeply the loss of the
school. They realize, however that
closing the school is inevitable,
and the thought expressed by one
member of the community is:
“The school is closed, but we
hope its influence will live on and
that the former pupils will en
ter into the community life of
other places and strive to make
of that community a better plac^
because of their presence. We
also hope that every one of the
former students and teachers as
well will remember the words of
the Alma Mater, written by an
11th grade student at Chappells,
Charles B. Carlisle: ‘How fond is
dear Chappells, thy name to our
ear, How thrilled are our hearts
when thy good name we hear;
We‘ll be loyal to Chappells to the
end our our days, We‘ll live in

The Secret Of.
• ■ .
Successful
Whht happens to your pay-check? Do you cash it or deposit it in a
checking account and then watch it melt away to pay for living expenses?
If so, you are one of those who have never been able to save because
there’s never anything left after you# bills and seemingly countless mis
cellaneous expenses are paid?
If you are, then you’ll be interested in the secret of successful saving.
It’s just this; pay yourself first! If you wait until there’s a comfortable
balance left after all expenses, you’ll probably never begin to save.
<v- When you receive yojir pay check ... before you pay any bills or make
even one expenditure . .(. take a reasonable percentage ont of your pay-
check, and put it into your Savings Account.
It will surprise you how well your other commitments will be met. And
your Savings Account will grow ... if you pay yourself first. That is the
first rule of Successful Saying . . . and, best of all, it will work for you
if you buy it. r l:
