Debate la Over
When Mrs. Holton, Mr. Edmonds
and our four debaters returned
from Toombs Central last Wed
nesday, we were happy to learn i
that we had won first place in 1
the area in which we debated. But, :
alas, we also learned that Odum I
had won first in the other area. 1
On Thursday afternoon we met i
Odum at Georgia Southern College
to determine which school would :
represent our region in the state ।
competition. We lost, but won
nine points toward the literary
trophy to be awarded to the school ■
in our region that can win the
most points in the various literary
events.
Sincere appreciation goes to
Lavon Burnsed, Lance Hilliard,
Oscar Nelson and James Curl for i
this honor which has come to our
school. We commend very highly
Mrs. Holton who worked patiently
and diligently as their coach.

Why I Would Like to Be a Teacher
Sandra Kicklighter
Since about the third grade I
have thought I might like to be
a teacher. I have always enjoy
ed school, and I think I would en
joy teaching.
I haven't decided which grade
I would like to teach yet. Each
grade that I have been in so far,
I have thought I would like to
teach.
I enjoy most all subjects, but
I enjoy history most of all, espec
ially Georgia History and the Civil
War period.
I am planning to go to college,
anyway, so that wouldn’t be any
different.
I do think I have enough pati
ence, tact, understanding and in-

terest in young people to make a

If 1 choose teaching as my
career, i would do the best I
coud.
Why 1 Would Like to Be a
Teacher
Sandra Speir
If 1 were to select teaching as
my profession, I would rather teach
the first or second grade. I have i
selected to teach either of these
grades because I feel that 1 would
be helping them to get started in
a great career.
I have always liked to work with
young people, and I enjoy it very
much.
I think school is the most im
portant feature in life. For with- ]
out education, you could hardly (
get any suitable job.
School teachers have great re- ,
sponsibilities in teaching pupils. (
I think this could be a very in- j
teresting and worthwhile proses- 3

The program chairman, Martha
McKinney, read a Bible story for
the devotional. Janet Strickland
assisted in the devotional. Lorin

ing riddles. Then the meeting was
turned over to Mr. Medders.

teresting games in them. He also
gave out our new record books.
Mrs. Payne gave us a demon
stration on how to make a head
scarf. She told us how to keep it
from fading when we wash it.
She said to put a piece of paper
under the scarf and another piece
on top of the scarf. Then press
over it with an iron.

Fourth Grade
We have learned to cut snow
flakes. We used some of them on
our bulletin board with a snow
man, which says. Happy New Year.
In our geography we have just
begun a trip to Greenland and a
visit with the Eskimos. This looks
like it will be an interesting trip.
Right now we are studying ice
bergs and how they are formed.
We have a new student in our
room, Van Fuller. Before coming
to Pembroke he attended school
in Okinawa. It was interesting
to us to know he was using the
same reader and workbooks we are
using.
In art we enjoyed making some
January 1961 calendars.

and Gary Sanders.
Lynn Quattlebaum, Ralph Wall

interesting. Planning to put on a

Cathy Strickland. They are doing
the story, “Little Red Riding
Hood.”

back wth us now. They had been
home with the mumps.
Cards of Thanks
After working with the county (

everyone in the county who made
it possible for me to continue in
office for so long without oppo
sition. I also wish to express ap
preciation for the party given me
by the Court House employees and
for the beautiful luggage which
they presented me. The friend
ship of each of these people will
always be valued.

We wish to thank our friends
and neighbors for the kindness
rendered to us during the illness
of our mother, Mrs. Frank Wilson,
during her two-weeks stay in the
Warren A. Candler Hospital and
