Chapel Entertainment
The student body as well as tin*
members of the faculty of Perry
High school were delightfully en
teJtaincd Monday morning during
chapel period by a show whose
principal characters were t w o
m hi keys. The o vner and director
of the show was Mr. Friar of
Texas.
The two monkeys performed
acts which caused some of the
Students shame and humiliation
because of their failure to pass in
their studies and inspired them
with greater determination to exe
cute their work to the utmost ol
their ability.
The admission charged was five*
cents for each pupil and the total
amount received was nineteen d.d
lars and seventy-five cents. Of
this twenty five per cent went to
the school for the benefit of the
UhletiC association. Thus i h e
show served a triple purpose, to
furnish entertainment, to arouse
in the students greater determina
tion, and to contribute to the
treasury of the Athletic associa-
t on.
For One Session
Whether or not the school
Should have one session on rainy
j days is a question of great interest
to school children, parents, and
I teachers one which concerns the
health of the students as well as
their comfort. No parent wants
Ibis children to be out in l’ainy
weather, encouraging such illness
es as colds and Uu.
In returning to school after
lunch the children will get their
feet and heads wet, but if they are
allowed to remain at home alter
they once get there, dry clothes
and warmth could be provided
and there would be little danger
of sickness as a ie*-ult.
Another disease germ whi- h de
velops more rapidlv in r a j n y
Weather is that of mumps and
there is now an epidemic of this
in the school. It would be well
for all children and teachers to be
protect! d from the damp weather
especially during this epidemic.
Several students have already had
mumps and if they aie allowed to
tie out too much in bad weather
there is danger of a letepse. At
the lunch hour some of the small
er children go out of doors in Spite
of the teachers’ warning and there
is always confusion in the hall
among those who remain in the
building.
Objectors to one session com
plain thit Some Country children
are more exposed to the Weather
in starting home earlier and hav
ing to Wait in the rain for trucks
they arc to meet. It could be very
easily arranged by the county
school supciiniendent h r all the
schools in the county to have one
session on rainy days and that
would enable the country Children
to get home quicker.

Week will be ot)-erv<*il this yeai
Nov. 13 to It). This Week la-
made a permanent place for itseif

When you hear people say, "Electric rates should be put back to pre-war
levels,” just remind them of the above. Their plan would raise your electric
bills, not lower them. This is true because:
I The average price paid by real-
•dential customers of this Company
for electric service is 30.7 per eent
lower today than it was m 1913, the
year before the war began.
2 If 1913 rates had been restored
• twelve months ago, our residential
customers wouid have paid us, in one
year, $2,000,000 more than they ac
tually did pay, provided that the
HIGHER 1913 rates had not forced
many to cut down on their use of elec
tric service.
*y If 1913 rates were in effect, our
3 residential customers would now
he paying an. average cf 7.55 cents
per kilowatt hour for their service
instead of only the 5.23 cents per
kilowatt hour average they now are
paying.
yj| Going hack to pre-war prices
. would cave you money on prac
tically everything you buy, except on
your electric service.
Who Wants to Go Back to Pre-War Prices on Electric Service?
CERTAINLY, NOT YOU
ALL SERVICE CHARGE payments are included in the 1932 low average price of
electric service as given above. The Service Charge type rate has reduced, NOT
increased, the rates of considerably more than a majority of our customers. Be
cause this rate was made available, thousands of Georgia homes, small
homes, now are enjoying the use
of electric refrigerators, ranges,
water pumps, and other appli
ances. Under the old style rates
(without the Service Charge)
only the wealthy could afford to
have these time-saving and labor-
saving devices in their homes.
