MARSHALLVILLE HIGH SCHOOL NOTES Cope Goodwill, Louise Doles, and; Bernard Battle constitute the com¬ mittee from the High School to co¬ operate with the Library Committee ■ of the Parent-Teachers Association. The Committee has laready begun the compilation of a library cata¬ logue and it hopes soon to be able to j lend books to citizens of Marshall ville in general as well as to pupils in the school. With a well arranged cat alogue it will be possible to maintain a set of checks on lent-out books which will assure their return within a certain period. It is hoped that friends of the school who have con templated giving books but who have hesitated to do so because of an un¬ willingness to make gifts to see them only carelessly husbanded, will, upon this announcement, take heart, and contribute liberally. This is an op portunity not only to aid the school library, but to set in swing a move¬ ment which may result in the estab¬ lishment of a small scale library available to every body in Marshall ville. We ask everybody for books. Won’t you send us some? There are so many new good things at school this term that we are natur¬ ally inclined to overlook the old good things that we have had heretofore. Among . the ,v most , notable . of P tnese “brought . overs ,, is . Miss Mary .. Nu$s XT ., . Orchestra. A , , m.

The i U. D. C. also are to offer a medal to the girl, regardless of grade, who writes the best paper on a subject (to be announced later) connected rith the War of 1861-65. j A number of ferns and poc flowers bave been contributed. Mrs. Tom i g rown wbo j s chairman of tie in-, terior Decoration Committee of the Parent-Teachers Association has of j f ered a pr i ze to the most attractive- such; j ly kept room. This has created j r j va i ry that all of the private . hot boU ses in town are on the point of j be j ng moved, by interested parties, ^ the school house. In the mean time, things become more and more festive, and The Hanging Gardens of Babylon get to be nothing, by com : parison. ! months 1 Reports for the first two of the school term were given out' Monday. On the whole, they showed up well and the teachers expressed themselves as pleased with the class of work being done. i Mr. Queener has announced that _ * 1 ., a V C ° ef •,< . „ m.iuiuv ‘ e en ire . corps o | . that all pupils will so arrange any school day visit they intend to irke THE LEADER-TRIBUNE, FORT VALLEY. GEORGIA 'to Macon to the Fair so that it fall on that date, which is i given for the purpose. October was selected instead of November because it was felt that by the date the whole business of the would have become so old that a made then would not be so as one made earlier. The High School entertained self—and a few visitors—at a roast last Friday night in the adjacent to the school house. we:e roasted and bread toastd the camp fire. Pickles, onions, punch finished the menu. A of games were played. In one of Mr. Robert Slappey won as a a large basket of cumquats. In another, “Charades,” Oliver and Miss Evelyn Timberlake stars. Miss Timberlake’s of Marseilles was especially fine. The Varsity Basket Ball both boys' and girls', are to be lected next week. The Athletic ciation takes ;his means of ing any teams in the towns. The boys have decided to uniforms made up as follows: trunks, black jerseys, with an colored stripe. The girls are to black sateen bloomers "with vvhiT middies. A Ouija Board which has found way to the library, has been the ter of interest lately in High particularly among the girls—It a very talkative board, indeed, and consequently feels altogether at in its new surroundings. Though talks much it cannot be said that “whispers too much” or that it “an¬ noys others.” Mildred Jones and Lyra Hamilton narrowly escaped a serious when, not long ago, the buggy they were driving home from school, was dragged so forcibly against a tele¬ graph pole that its front wheel was completely torn off. Both girls were back at school as well as ever, and with more than ever to tell about. Virginia Bryan entertained Ber nard Battle, Harris Richard and Hen¬ ry Floyd at an enjoyable and very successful fishing party last Satur day afternoon. Edwin Jones’ Ford, like the man in the song rambled and rambled until the butcher, or some body, has cut it down Unlike the man, however, the Ford continues not only to navigate but to naviga ■ more and more freely. In its new shape the Ford looks better than ever and anybody can tell you that it “wares” as well as could be sked. It is hoped that the visitor in Mar shallville last Wednesday night who was looking for Louise Doles’ house at last succeeded in finding it.

A year ago Noonan was arraigned in a Buffalo police court. Judge Puper decided that what Mike needed most was a course in thrift and saving so he was sentenced to turn over $15 a week for a year to Arch C. Scoby, probation officer of the court, to be invested in Govern ment Savings Stamps, Noonari faithfully obeyed the man date of the court. In fact, he says he “got stuck on it.” Some weeks he handed over more than the required amount, his top figure for one week being $48. On the day his probation was up, Scoby was in court to turn over a thousand dollars, the results of the y ear 0 f saving, but Noonan did not show up. Schoby got him on the tele phone at the plant of the National Carbon Co. at Niagara Falls. ‘I have got $1,000 for you, Mike b e said. “You can have it in the S av ings Stamps or you can have the money. Come over and get it.” M I’m too busy” answered Noonan oveiythe wire. “Let the Stamps wait. why would I be coming over for ^ em today? Id have to lay olf and jij j ose money.” Noonan has the habit.

AMAZING THRIFT PROGRESS An amazing record of thrift ‘has been made by societies connected with the Boston Manufacturing Com¬ pany at Waltham, Massachusetts, where there has been this year an increase of three hundred percent in the monthly savings of fhe members. Not only did the habit of making regular investments in Government Savings Securities, Savings Stamps and Treasury Savings Certificates take firm hold on the members of these societies, but constantly in¬ creasing amounts were required to uppiy the demands of employees who were not members. The employees of the Brown and Sharpe Company of Providence, Rhode Island, now lead all other in¬ dustrial plants in New England in the value of savings safely invested in Government Savings Securities. The average monthly investment of the Brown and Sharpe employees' is $15,009. This concern lias 245 sav¬ ings dubs with over 5,000 members. The thrift and savings exhibit of the societies was displayed at the East¬ ern States Exposition recently held at Springfield, Massashusetts. At this exposition exhibits were displayed showing that New England now has over 2,000 Government Savings.
