“Eat ‘Em Up, Fair”! Yes, that
seemed to be the motto of the Sen- i
ior class of R. H. S, on Friday night,
Oct. 21.
After many quarrels and disagree
ments, seventeen of the twenty-two
Seniors finally decided that they real
ly did want to go to the Fair ill Ma
con. Mrs. Irene Whatley a member
of the R. II. S. faculty acted as chnp-
eron.
When the sun had shed its last
beams on the small town of Reynolds
for that day, a group of joyful sen
iors were waiting for the school bus.
Finally, someone announced the ar
rival of the bus. The group quickly
climbed into the bus and the trip
that the senior class had looked for
ward to for a long time was under
way.
Everyone seemed to enjoy the
songs that were sung and the many
jokes that were told on the way to
Macon. Everyone who went, surely
carried an important item: a good
spirit. This was characterized by the
noise that was carried on in that,
school bus, as someone has humorous
ly remarked: "there was more noise
to the square' inch on that bus- than
there has ever -been or ever will be”.
We renced Macon about 7:30. While
waiting in the line of automobiles, we
picked at the people walking down
the sidewalk. When we finally got
into the fair-grounds we divided into
groups of two’s, four’s and sixes’.
Many rides were enjoyed, the most
important being: ferris wheel, lindy
loop, sky rocket, pop-the-whip, cater
pillar, and rideo.
Wo met back at the bus and left
Central City Park. On our way out,
we stopped at a cafe to get some
thing to eat and drink.
The trip home was not quite as
noisy as the one going over there
because everyone was sleepy and
cold.
However, we arrived safely in Rey
nolds during the “wee hours” of the
morning. I think that the best look
irig thing to our class at that time
was the “good old warm -bed with
plenty of cover.”

(By Frances Carter)
Relatives and friends of Harry
Stillwell Edwards, noted Georgia au
thor, paid their last tribute to him at
the funireal services at 3 p. m., Oct.
23.
He died October 22 at the Middle
Georgia Hospital where he had Wen
sent with a severe case of bronchitis;
Later, this developed into pnewnonia.
This bronchial ailment came while he
was enjoying the bright, autumn
days by riding through the woods
near his Holly Bluff home in his car
given him by Henry Ford. He and
Mr. Ford were personal friends.
Mr. Edwards was a writer, editor,
novelist and poet.
He wrote the negro foMc tale,
Aneas Africanus, and hundreds of
other stories.
Mr. Edwards had met many famous
men — McKinley, Grant, Cleveland,
Taft, Davis, Coolidge, and Roosevelt.
Early in life, he determined to be
a soldier, and during the War Be
tween the States he drilled with oth
er boys hoping to join the Con
federate Army. Twice he was ap
pointed to Annapolis but the first
time he was unaible to accept be
cause his mother told him never to
come home if he put bn a -blue uni
form. The second time he was unable
to accept because he was -beyond the
age limit.
At the age of 18, he took: a course
in law at .Mercer University and
when he graduated, he was admitted
to the Macon bar. He became dis
pleased with this, however and began
to write newspaper sketches.
Gradually he was promoted until
he was made associate editor and
joint-owner of the Macon Telegraph.
After this, his success -was faster
than it had been and his popularity
grew immediately. He became a
member of the National Institute of
Arts and Letters, and the Authors
League. He iwos an Elk, a Master
Mason and honorary Rotarian.
Along with his greatness and
achievement was his beauty and sim
plicity in life.
His minister said, “he enjoyed a
simple and unostentatious faith in
Christ, his life and' his teachings.’’
He said Mr. Edwards had a “love for
the common things in life, the -beauty
and glory of which is revealed in
his writings.” Georgians will always
have reeverence for this noted au
thor of Macon.
