SCHOOL REUNION EVENT
OF INTEREST TO MANY
FORMER TEACHERS AND PU
PILS OF FLOVILLA HIGH
SCHOOL HAD REUNION ON
THE FOURTH OF JULY
A most interesting and unique re
union o fpupils, teachers and friends
of the Flovilla school was held at the
old school building July 4. This
school was built in 1884 and was
first called the Indian Springs High
School. At this first reunion the
school was called together at the
ringing of the same bell “to come to
books.” Prof. Paine, who was one of
the first teachers, was ready to call
the roll from the same little hand
book that was used at the first open
ing—name Indfan Springs High
School on original book.
When the roll had been called and
all in readiness for the beginning of
one of the most prosperous schools,
and an array of fine teachers in the
state, Mr. R. L. Allen came forward
with a welcome address, which car
ried the tone of “old friends are
welcome.”
/ Among the old pupils to answer
this Fourth of July roll call were
the names of Dr. J. G. Smith, of
McDonough, who suggested this hap
py reunion. Then John R. L. Smith,
a distinguished lawyer of Macon.
Then were the girls called, Fleetie
White, Elia, Myrtle and Eloise Pound,
of Jackson; Henry Kimbrough,
George Collier Smith and Parham

the gladdest handshakes.
Greetings from old pupils and
teachers from Tennessee, Kentucky,
Alabama, California, New York,
North Carolina, Florida, Mississippi,
Ohio, Texas.
The scholars from Indian Springs
walked to Flovilla in those days and
a happy, go-free crowd they were.
Mrs. Holloway (Lily Heard), was
master of ceremonies and she han
\
died the gavel like a general.
The dinner was bounteous and
elegant and the appetites of the
“boys and girls” of long ago were
fully grown and equal to the occa
sion.
This is the old school from 1884 to
the later' year sof 1900, etc. The
Indian Springs pupils were carried
in school buses to and from their
hemes. Modern equipment in every
respect.
The crowd was estimated at 400.
At the close of the day, Mrs. Lucy
Dozier Douglas at the piano, sang
old time songs, such as “Just a Lit
tle Street Where Old Friends meet”
and Mrs. Myrtle Pound Williams
sang “When You and I were Young,
Maggie.” Then all the school and
audience joined in the chorus of
“Auld Lang Syne” and “Blest Be the
Tie That Binds.”
So ended a perfect and wonderful
day.

STATE RESERVE IS
IMPROVED BY C.C.C
FOUNDATION LAID FOR MUSE
UM AND BRIDGES ERECTED
AND PROPERTY MADE MOST
ATTRACTIVE
Indian Springs, Ga. —The C. C.
(Vs of Butts county having been con
ditioned for the work before them
have struck their stride and undfet
the able guidance of Forester Clem
ents are working wonders in improv
ing the State Property at Indian
Springs. They have just finished
erecting a walk for pedestrians over
ihe mill creek, with an eastern ap
proach cut through rock and rub
ble. This abolishes a hazard where
for years pedestrians and vehicular
traffic have used the same bridge
way.
The wild wood tangle along the
creel* has been cleared away and the
approach to the state property is
fast assuming an attractive appear
ance. Later the state purposes a
modern bridge over the creek.
The fence lining the roadway, fast
going into decay, has been removed
and in its stead will be built a rock
curb. The state property south of
the creek has been cleared for the
first time in ages and later a foot
bridge will lead to this newly opened
acreage, well-timbered.
The C. C. C.’s have also cleared
the two creek beds of rubbish for
more than a half mile either way,
and also removed many rocks from
the shoals at the mill which has im
proved the looks of the waterway at
this point.
Rocks that were creeping up on
the parkway have been removed and
the roadway repaired from the main
highway through the property.
The foundation has been excavat
ed for the museum and some of the
stone has been faced for the struc
ture. This will be a most attractive
building.
Work laid out by the Forestry
Board will keep the men busy from
now on. Messrs. Madden and Carl
Funderburk are superintending con
struction work.
The Forestry Board has rented the
F.d Hoard building by the bridge and
the rooms are being used for offices
and tool houses. ,

JUNE BUSINESS GOOD,
CHEVROLET REPORTS
Production of new Chevrolet cars
and trucks in June more than dou
bled output for the corresponding
month last year and was the largest
single month’s production in two
years, W. S. Knudsen, president and
general manager of the Chevrolet
Motor Company announced today.
With a total output of 81,573
units, June compares with 36,142 in
June last year and with 68,538 in
May this year, previously the best
month since June, 1931, Mr. Knud
sen said.
He emphasized that the high June
total was made possible only by the
splendid morale and co-operation ex
tended by the more than 36,000 em
ployes now on the company payrolls.
Mr. Knudsen said he hoped, througn
the share-the-work plan practiced by
his company in recent years, to hold
the employment curve flatter this
summer than has been possible in
past seasons.
Every effort has been made
through the depression, he pointed
out, to provide for the regular Chev
rolet workers. Through regulating
hours of work per week to retail de
mand, and by building up parts
stocks in lean seasons, it has been
possible for eleven months of each
year since 1929 to hold Chevrolet
payrolls to within ten per cent of
the averagfe of 32,5000 men, Mr.
Knudsen stated.
June production exceeding May is
unusual in his company’s experience,
Mr. Knudsen said, since either April
or May are normally peak months of
the year.
