SCHOOL NEWS.
By H. J. COPF.LAND. Jr.
Our first seven weeks of school
have been completed with very
good results. There has been a
very good record for these past
weeks, although there some are
iinprovents to be made.
A new plan has been adopted
by Prof. Smith. He has promis
ed to present a banner to be kept
by the grade which nas the larg
est per cent of its number of pu
pils on the honor roll each month.
The banner is to be moved to the
room that wins it, where it will
remain during the ensuing month.
The second grade has it for Octo
ber.
The two literary societies con*'
tinuel their meetings each Mon
day with very good results and
interesting programs. One has
been named “Henry Grady Lit
erary Society.”
The pastors have filled their
regular appointments with us with
very interesting talks. One of
the most interesting we have had
was the one Rev. Liddell gave us
on “Pigs is Little Hogs.” Every
one enjoyed this very much, as it
contained so much humor. He
has given us a little poem of his
own composition, which is as fol
lows :
I once saw a little hog,
Somewhat strange was he;
I found him not in a bog,
But up an apple tree.
What! a hog up a tre?
Whoever heard such stuff ?
You'r only fooling me.
And trying hard to bluff. Huh!
I saw a pig at a table,
Eating soup with a spoon;
He ate it in such a way
The noise lilled the room.
Some pigs pretend to wear clothes,
Pants and waist, anti hat,
Shirt and cloak and shoes,
But never lit to look at.
Pigs sometimes go to school
Who tire driven there by force,
But do no good as a rule,
So the teacher considers the source.
I’m glad I’m not a hog—
Don't you feel the same?
For I don’t like the bog.
Neither do I like the name.
Rev. Gilmore also gave us a
very interesting talk on loyalty to
our teachers, home, town, state,
and lastly but not least, to our
nation. If we do not stand for
the things that will help to raise
the standard of these things, we
ought to move out and not let our
influence hinder them.
The Fourteenth Annual Meeting

Society of the Atlanta Conference
M. E. Church will convene in Mc-
Donough Nov. Ist, at the A. M. E.
