BEST WISHES
FOR YOU
May your Christmas be happy and
merry, and the new year the happiest
of them all, with nothing but prosperi
ty to go hand in hand with you each
one of its days.
McClure’s
“Doc’s Ology”
Reed Creek, along with all kinds of
lines, has advanced greatly within
the past two or three years. And
along with this advancement comes
the organization of a basketball
team.
The basketball team that repre
sents Reed Creek has played a few
games on the Hartwell court and,
this winter, will play still mo*e
games on our court.
One game especially am I inter
ested in. This is the Reed Creek-
Athens Hi game. No definite an
nouncement has been made regard
ing this game but it will likely be
played the night following the Hart
well-Athens affair.
Hartwell fans are always inter
ested in games in which Athens High
plays. She has always treated us
fair, whether or not they were win
ning or losing.
Another reason I think Hartwell
fans will be interested in the above
mentioned games with Athens High
is because she has an even stronger
team this season than the one that
carried away the honors at the
Northeast Georgia Tourney last
February.
Hartwell High expects to play
Boys’ Hi, of Atlanta, this winter.
Last season Hartwell High snowed
under the Atlanta team, 39-16, and
hopes to go down to Atlanta and
“beat 'em on their own court.”
Sometimes the thing of beating a
team on their own field is a hard
proposition. Tech remained unde
feated by a Southern team for five
years in the games played on Grant
field.
Not that I think there is any
chance of doing such, but I for one,
would be glad to see a game ar
ranged between Hartwell and Elber
ton. These two teams haven’t met
in a year or so because of some little
difference.
I'm the kind of fellow who believes
in burying the hatchet and being
friends once more. No doubt one
was in the wrong as much as the
other.
Don’t misinterpret my meaning. I
believe in a team upholding its rights
but when both the team and her op
ponents are wrong—why continue to
be enemiep? Think it over—“For
what it’s wirth!”

your kindness and your splendid

“BUILT ON SERVICE”
NUBERG NOTES '
**********
, The fall term of the Nuberg school
’ closed on December 19th. This has
’ been one of the most successful
terms in the history of our school.
I The report cards for November had
more A’s and B’s in all of the de
' partments than usual. A’s in deport
' ment are beginning to claim the at
tention of our folks just as much as
. A’s in English.
A boy that is allowed to make D
in his deportment for a few months,
will soon put a D in the whole report
card. Ain morals or deportment will
set the pace for a successful school.
' The motto for the Nuberg school in
1925 is A in everything.
The fast bastkeball team of Sardis
came over last Friday and put a lot
of pep into a fast and interesting
game. At the close of the first half
of the game songs of jubilee by the
Sardis aggregation made us feel a
bit nervous, but when our boys
caught the spirit of victory, we went
into the court and won a complete
victory with a score of 21 to 15 in
favor of Nuberg. “He that laughs
last laughs best” and “he that sings
last sings best.”
The Sardis team is composed of a
mighty clever set of high-toned boys
I that are taught to smile in defeat.
Our school has made good in physi
cal training, in mental development
and moral standards. We must win
all the athletic contests and at the
same time have our team win vic
tories in shooting moral goals in the
courts of physical and mental train
ing. We have but little respect for
teams that will engage in habits of
dissipation and reflect upon their
school when away from home. No
school should allow a boy to become
a member of a team if his moral
standard is bad. When we put too
much stress upon winning victories
over other teams and not enough
stress upon moral fitness we will
soon tear down the school and make
athletics unpopular among sensible
people.
Mr. and Mrs. Carl M. Mathis, of
Atlanta, are visiting relatives in this
community.
Miss Ina Gaines, of Elberton, Miss
Bertha Thornton, of Bessie Tift Col
lege; Miss Pauline Brown, of Ander
son college; Miss Pauline Brown
teacher at West Union, S. C., are at
home for the holidays.
We wish for The Sun force a
merry Christmas.
The Hartwell Sun stands for pro
gress and freedom of speech and de
serves much commendation for their
generosity and liberality in allowing
folks to express in their columns the
different angles that tend toward the
up-building of all the folks.
A merry Christmas for all with a
sober good time.
“Count that day lost, whose low
descending, sun Views from thy
hand no worthy action done.”
