Winder High
School
Our public schools, next to our
churches, stand highest in the hearts
and minds of our citizens. We all
look upon our schools with a pride
that causes every citizen to feel that
in fostering the education of our
children we lay the foundation of our
future greatness. From our schools
are to come our preachers, our teach
ers, our financiers, our governors,
our presidents, in fact, all our great
Americans. The greatness of our
homes depend to a large extent upon
our schools.
The power manifested by our en
try into the awful war, and the splen
did way in which we won it, was the
result of the excellent work done in
the schools of this country. The men
of America came forth with all their
intelligence, their money, their ef
forts, and threw themselves into the
mighty struggle and won out glo
riously. Why was this possible? Be
cause back in their youth they receiv
ed inspiration from some godly man
or woman, whose example and teach
ing so fashioned them as to cause
them to broaden into the great mas
ter Americans that they were, and
enabled them to triumph over their
enemies.
We are proud of Winder’s public
schools. Our splendid superinten
dent, every member of the faculty
are men and women that are working
that our boys and girls may develop
into great minded Americans and
win victories when they get out into
the arena of life.
Yes, we are proud of our schools,
our churches, our ministers and ev
ery individual that is working and co
operating for the interest of our city.
Let every citizen of our beautiful
city join hands with a solid front and
back our school this week at Jefferson
so that they may further increase our
already enviable reputation as an
educational and business city.
We are proud of our school, and
want every boy and girl to wear one
of our W. H. S. CAPS, and carry the
colors to a successful and honorable
conclusion.
