However, we don’t mind happy vacation time when we can play and get rested and ready for a year of good work in the fifth grade. We have had pleasant times in the fourth grade and feel that the year’s work has been a success. One of the many things that we have learned this year is our health motto —"Cleanli- ness is the first law of health. At the beginning of the year Miss Smith said that she would give a Prize to the pupil who missed fewest words in spoiling during (the year. Carolyn Almand, having only one Word recorded against her, will he awarded this prize. A prize was also offered to the boy and girl who re ceived the most stars on the health chart. I. G. Ellis and Carolyn Almand have led here.

A Splendid Message to the Seventh Grade To the seventh grade: Deep down in the heart of every young American lies an ambition to become great. True greatness is within, not without. It seems discouraging at time to find Ihe work we can accoemplish so far beneath what we endeavored to make it, but we all have to learn one great lesson in life and that is, that the result of the bravest effort never equals the conception of the soul. “Act well your part, there all honor lies.” Dear pupils, you must all know how deeply I feel and can realize lmw much I mean by the only words I can find to say—God bless you!

Good Bye Seniors We Wish You Well “Lives of Seniors all remind as They have worked and done their best, And departing leave liehind them Notebooks that will help the rest." The senior class of ’2ll makes its filial adieu Friday evening al 8:30. This class collectively has left a good record, and individually has aspired to lofty heights. Talent and oppor tunities are theirs. If they realize that “labor vincat omnia,” success stands ready with her crown. The two artists in the class are Lu ther Cowan and Anna Lee Wallis; the former, anew Bud Fisher, the latter a young Nell Brinkley. Those posses sing unusual dramatic ability arc Ora Guinn, Lula Mann and Howard Walk er. Olive Mitcham, the best student, is admired for her perseverance and her splendid record. Steadman Tuck lias aspirations to be another Lind bergh and we hope his love of aero planes and stunt flying will make him just as famous us his hero. Mary Alice Rice and Jewell Morris are tal ented in many ways. They are stylish, domestic and artistic. Mary Branham Loftwieh is gifted witli her pen, and to predict for her a literary career would not he far wrong. Sarah Hew lett looks forward t oa college ca reer with the study of violin on the side. Rebecca Patrick desires to instruct the young, so she will lie the only teacher of the class. Fanny ( Mue White, Rosebud Wil son and Willie Sue Stanton tend to ward business courses. Mary Tucker, with her Irish quickness of speech and her ambition, will be successful in her chosen field. Hamilton McDonald and Lewis Kent are destined to lie the two business men of I lie class. Ralph O’Neal is the chemist and wlien we hear of his new startling theories we will remember how sincerely he work edwhile performing the experiments in the laboratory and feel proud of him. Mary Potts is never happier than when in the Math, class. Her mathe matical and analyzing mind will bring her success. MISS MARY HEWLETT, Teacher. S. O. S. CALL FROM ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION The athletic association will sponsor a picture at the theatre Monday and Tuesday nights. The athletic associa tion is in debt and some money lia? to he secured in order for them to come out even. So every body come out and see tills good picture.

We wishes health and happiness to every chil. To their pareuts, he wishes prosperity and wealth. To the hoard lie extends sincere appreciation for their coopera tion. All in all the school lias done good work. Tardies anil nhsentees are almost unknown words. Through our coopera tive system of discipline, corporul pun ishment Is a rare application.
