THE PROGRESS OF OBS SCHOOL.
By Frances Cater.
Prior to the year 1920, Perry
Public School had an enrollment of
150-160 pupils with six teachers
and two buildings containing five
class rooms, a chapel and a music
room. 192U however, proved an
epoch making year in our High
School for in this year we were en-
small laboratory, All together
would cost little in comparison to
tho value received.
This agriculcural teacher could
help in the regular high school!
work, thereby making a tnoTe
varied course in the literary de-,
partment. As two thirds of the
children iu school come from tho j
'country and will return to tho j
i farm, it is the more imperative!
! that the school offer this course. I

Lets make the school more
practial, more related to the needs
of the community.

After having promed for some
time the guests were called in and
delicious refreshmenfs of cake and
ice cream were* served, These
carried out the color scheme of
the class of 21 which is gold and

enrollment of pupils to 350 and
we have three buildings with nine
recitation rooms, music, art and
expression rooms.
The greatest improvement has
been made in our Library for we
have four complete new sets of
books—The World Book, Stod
dard Lectures, Book of Knowledgo,
Southern Literature. There are
many good books for reading and
study and the latest edition of
Webster’s International Diction
ary .also. A special reading room
has just been completed and such
necessary equipment as a rug] ta
bleland chairs, has been ordered.
Vast improvement in our Science
Department has been made since

built.-

We have thiee basket ball courts,
a giant stride, a slide, and a largo
playground. This-year there have
been three well'organized basket
ball teams which have certainly
proved a good investment, not
merely because they have helped
develop the pupils but they have
increased the school spirit a hun
dred fold and have been a good ad
vertisement.
We feel that with all these im
provements and a much needed
new school building we will be
able to easily be classed in Group
of the Accredited List to which
we have already applied for ad
mission.
Lets work for that building.
A GREAT WORLD MOVEMENT
By Hal Gilbert
At the close of the world war, the
policies ot ihe great tuitions of the world
were almost as militaristic as they were
the years previous to the war. After tho
peace treaty had been signed, England
was not willing to relinquish her
supremacy on the sea. Japan was build
ing battleships as fast us she could, with
no apparent object except to dominate
the Paeifle, where she Was already pbwei-
tul. Although Italy unit Fituitie uid not
aspire to an Important naval rank in the
Pacific, they were rivals in the Mede-
terrareau, in Rot 1 then Africa, and in
Western Asia. That Japan and the
United States were steadily moving
toward an inevitable conflci, was an
idea entertained by ull statesmen and
journalists of Europe. ,
It was under these cerciunstnnces that
the Washington Conference on limita
tion of in ms was called, It < ould not have
been called in u more propitious time.
There never was a period in History
where the nations were less able to bear
the burden of competitive armaments.
Great Britain, France, and Italy were
staggering under an almost overwhelm
ing war debt, and the United States and
Japan, thoughuot so heavily in debt,
were hardly able to pay the price of

H F. D. No. 2.
Agriculture is the oldest of
occupations and the foundation
upon which all others have been
built. The progress of civilization
the compleli jbu with other occu
pations and the cohstauly increas
ing demand for agricultural pro
ducts are compelling the setting
aside of old methods and are
bringing into existence a new era
for the farmers of tbe United
States. Successful farming re
quires a wider knowledge and a
greater skill-
There are no more promising
opportunities presented to young
men than those offered in the
field agriculture. The demand for
trained agriculturists is greater
than the Agricultural Colleges can
supply. This demand is constantly
increasing, The young man who
takes a thorough course in agricul
ture in any school offering such a
course, is sure to find a good
position awaiting him upon his
graduatiou. But what is of greater
importance still is tbe everincreas
ing demand that tbe elements of
agriculture be taught in thepublic
schools. Then why can’t Perry
have an agricultural course in her
school? Of course she wants it and
oan gr l it by a little extra work
and effort. But this, some are not
willing to do and of course nothing
of any importance can be acorn-
plished unless everyone will work
together with the right kind of a
spirit.
Under the Smith-Hughes Law
we can have an agriculture course
in our school. The state will pay
five-eights of the salary of a teach
er for this work, leaving only
three eights to be paid by local
authority. In addition to this the
Sphool would have to furnish a
The Wu shington Conference was an
unprecedented success from more than
one stand point. First of nil it establisud
u normal ratio of 5-3-8'between the three
great naval powers—England, tho
United states, mid Japan, This ratio
means (using u specific illustration) that
if England has fifty tons war ships, the
United fttales could huve fifty, and
Jupan thirty, By the agreements of the
uaiious at the Cmfwenc'J, number of
battleships on wuiuh constiuction had
jusl’begun, wore to be sciapped.The
most important uecomplisment, however
was tho 10 year ‘'■avul holiday” all the
nations agreeing not to constrict any
new war vessels for ten years. This is
the agreement which has removed the
burden of competitive armaments.
At the the Conference, many friend
ships were cemented and many suspicious
were allayed. The United States and
Japan came to a belter understanding
over the California immigration question
and the injured feelings of China were
soothed.
Another very important result the
Washington Conference was the four
power treaty. In this, four great natious,
the Unrted Stales, England, Japan and
Fiance agree to respect each others
rights to the islands iu tho Pacific and if
any dispute comes up it will be settled
in a conference of these powers
This ednference lias put Japan and the
United States on more friendly terms
because one great contention between
these two powers has been the islands of
the Pacific,
Following the example of the Wash
iugton Conference, a conference of the
nations of Europe has been called at
Genoa, Italy for the the purpose of re
moving some political disputes which bar
the way to Europe’s return to prosperity.
Loyd George, the British Prime Minster
is considered the leader of this conference
He proposes first, to settle as near all the
boundary disputes of the nations of
Europe as possible, and then get them to
sign a •‘non-agression pact,” each natiou
agreeing to refraim from acts of
agression for ten years, 'i he British
Prims Minister could hardly have tackl
ed a more difficult problem, that of
settling the boundnC disputes of the
nations of Europe. These disputes are
almost innumerable. Can he do it,
The Geno Conference is still in session
and if Loyd George has his way, Europe
