Special to The County Record. c
Lake City, September 8:?Lake s
i City High and Graded school began a
i its session of 1914-15 this morning, 1:
1 when the formal opening exercises r
1 were held in the school auditorium, i o
' beginning with a prayer by Rev J p
W Ariall, followed by an introduc- v
tion and welcome to the members of E
the faculty by Rev E P Easterling.
i Mr W H Compton, the newly elect- t
ed superintendent, responded to Mr C
j Esterling's address, expressed the
I no!iev*to be nursued bv the faculty, e
i' '"" ~ - . ;
and asked the co-operation of the i e
patrons, pupils and friends of the i
school, assuring them that he would . a
endeavor to have the faculty do t
their part. Never before in the
history of the Lake City schools has n
such interest been manifested in the "N
opening exercises as there was today.
The instructors were imbued with S
the proper spirit, all the pupils d
seemed to enter into their respec- t
tive class rooms with unusual enthusiasm
and the visitors were im- t
pressed with the general air"of de- c
corum that prevailed among the C
pupils.
As members of the faculty, Miss ie
Bertha Morris, who has had charge , a
of the sixth grade for the past sev- c
eral years, Miss Amber Wilkes, the C
third grade for even a greater pe- t
riod of *time; Miss Sue Shaw, the I
teacher of the seventh grade, who t
also has'held this position for the
past several years, and Miss Eva v
North, who has charge of the music 1
department, are all young ladies t
from Lake City, who have their o
| homes and interests here; and Miss t
Owen, instructor of the first grade, o
Miss Ada Walker, the fifth, Miss u
Hare, the second, were here last o
year. The superintendent, Mr W H
Compton; principal, Mr Grady Bow- It
i man, and Misses Furs, Ellis and n
Charlton are the only new members v,
of the faculty this session. The en- it
rollment today surpassed any pre- R
vious enrollment on opening day, cj
there being something over four
hundred pupils in attendance. E
Mrs J P Matthews, in a most ci
charming manner, entertained the r<
members of the "Kill Kare Klub," S<
