Jeff Morgan, fine of the graduates of the Cochran High School, has entered Sophomore class at Emory College. This speaks line for Jeff as well as our excellent school. With pardonable pride the Journal feels like it has contributed some thing, however in creating a sentiment favonfble to oui school. A country editor is often accused of being a “hot air” artist. He must bean optimist, when storms of depression sweep across the coun try; and “stay on the mountain top,” preaching prosperity, when half of his subscribers are delin quent. He must be . a booster, when some of the staunchest and prosperous of the towms citizens go about with long faces, croaking be cause of a little temporary depres sion or because they can’t make it all ina year. The home paper should get in behind every project ed enterpise in the town and assist in. its development. If the school is weak, help build it up. After the little country editor, who isoft entiioe considered a joke by some of bis own people, devotes weeks and weeks of his time and energy in a campaign of education in his community, sees the school tax raised to a sufficient sum to main tain a spiendid faculty, sees the pu pils of the school capturing prizes in the district school meet, scoring six points more than any other school in the district, with such ci ties as Cordele, Fitzgerald, Ameri cas Ilawkinsville, and Abbeville; and then, when it is brought to our attention that a graduate from this school can enter Sophomore class in the higher educational institu tions of our state, we feel intensely proud that we have participated in this campaign for a better school and that our splendid people have united almost as one man for the betterment of educational condi tions in our'community. We must not stand sfill. There, are better things yet in store for Cochran. With a supreme confi dence in the future and an eye sin gle to the welfare of our town, let us with renewed confidence and double effort march onward until we have placed Cochran in the front rank of prosperous south Georgia cities.
