Annual Depositors
“Draw out your wallets for the
best annual yet!” This has been
the main slogan around school
this past week. The seniors were
thrilled to know that so many
were anxious to pay their deposits
on the annual. Those who have
made their dollar deposits will be
the first to receive their annuals
when they arrive in the spring.
We believe this well be the best
yearbook ever published by our
school.

In art this week we made torn
paper pictures. We had fun do
ing this. We are using them on
the wall in our room. Later we
will take them down and put them
in our folders.
We have a new student in our
room, Carol Sue Shuman. She
went to school in Brunswick before
coming to Pembroke.
The fourth grade enjoyed so
much getting a letter from Robert
Quick. He told us all about school
and what he liked most about it.
Too, he told us he had a little
baby sister just six days old.
Our bulletin board for Book
Week, November 13-19, shows
some interesting books for us to
read.
On Friday we had our chapel
program. We gave a short play
entitled, "The Book Fairy's Mes
sage.”
In arithmetic we’ve begun work
ing long division. We are enjoy
ing this and not finding it as hard
as we thought.
Gossip Column
Eighth graders have a right to
notice hearts and flowers, too.
Have you noticed the stars in
Bonita's eyes when Ronnie comes
into view? ... It has been heard
that Eric Brannen is the number
one heartthrob in the eighth grade
at the present time . . . Little girl
admiration is wonderful. Carolyn
H. is fascinated by J. 8., one of
our senior boys.
We heard through the grapevine
that certain couple whose names
appeared in this column last week
was n little upset over the publi
city. Oh, well, two red faces.
If Roddy loses his job as
delivery boy, Gail will understand
why . . . What handsome eleventh
grade boy stumbled quite by acci
dent into a girl’s bedroom, while
looking for a hunting companion,
at 5:00 o’clock in the morning?
. . . Has that boy from Savan
nah consented to go to the dance
with you, yet, Glenda? . . . Hey,
Sue! You're slipping. Why did
you “forget” to mail that letter
to Elvin? . . . Has anyone seen
a blue pair of pajamas anywhere
on the campus? ... If so, please
return to M. S. She’s in a sad
state . . . For some reason, Clax
ton is a very interesting place for
Donald Hodges . . . Lavon, what’s
your reason for going to Fort
Stewart with your Daddy so
often ?
Thanks to Berry College, Jan
ette C. was able to go to the
Drive-In Saturday with Tommy
. . . James C., what was playing j
at the show last Friday night;
when you took Linda. Or do you ■
remember? . . . Guss what! Gwen
has the mumps. Guess what else!
Iler steady, W. D.. has the mumps
also. Isn't this a coincidence? . . .
If she has time, we hope Jeannette
D. will invite Jimmy C., a boy
from Southeast to the Thanks
giving dance. It’s about time she
got some courage . . .
If any of you have any gossip
you think is worth printing, please
report it to one of the Senior
girls. They will see that the
Gossipettes hear about it. All we
ask is that you keep talking.

Third Grade
The third grade room is begin
ning to look like Thanksgiving is
in the air. Fall leaves are taped
to one of our walls. They give
the effect of falling leaves. We
have a bulletin board that shows
pictures of some of the symbols
of Thanksgiving, such as, Indians,
Pilgrims, turkeys, poems, the
Mayflower and harvest time.
We have been studying foods in
health. On one side of our chalk
board we have a large chart
“Food way to follow.” Around
this we have pictures of the foods
found in the four major areas.
All around our room we have
pictures that the children have
drown giving their ideas about
Thanksgiving.
This week we have the hall
bulletin board. We have made a
large turkey out of arcons and
feathers to use in the center of
the board. Our caption is “We
are Thankful for.” The children
have written on colored paper the
things for which they are thank
ful. These will be used around
the turkey.
We also have the chapel pro
gram for November 23. We are
planning to have two playlets:
"Ten Little Turkeys” and “The
First Thanksgiving Dinner.”
