WORLEY SCHOOL
No, Worley School was not
located on Lookout Mountain
but was the only school on Sand
Mountain in Dade County- It was
located just across the road from
where the Avans Post Office now
.stands and all that is left of the
old Worley School is the well.
The building burned and
children in this community were
without a school of any kind
for four years, many never went
to any school during this time
and as a result there are a sup-
uising number of the fathers
and mothers of today who
neither read nor write.
I have often wondered who
was responsible for this and I
)think it’s no wonder we are so
proud of our school which we
now have.
A Sand Mountain Resident.
(Editor’s Note: We have re¬
ceived more recent information
about Worley School, as follows:)
It is believed that the school
burned October 31, 1955 and that
only two teachers made up the
faculty. They were Cleo Blevins
(now deceased) and Laura
Hartline.
HOME BURNS
IN NEW ENGLAND
Monday night a home in the

line saved.
The home belonged to the
Robert Nichols and there was no
one home when the fire started
about 10 P- M. Neighbors saw a
flickering light in the house but
when they got there it was too
to save anything.
MARINE CORPS NEWS
RELEASED BY T./SGT. ROY
B. MOORE
The U- S. Marine Corps is now
allowing newly enlisted Marines
(to remain at home for the first
four months of their enlistment.
Several new advantages are thus
available to young men enlisting
under this program. It affords
a high school senior the opport¬
unity of completing his high
school education during the four
month delay before reporting for
active duty- While still at home
and in school, the new Marine
is fulfilling a portion of his
military obligation and earning
seniority as well. This service,
performed in school, makes the
man eligible for a $5.50 pay in¬
crease by the time he begins his
active duty training at the end
of the four month delay period.
In effect, the Marine Corps, is
offering a bonus to those high
school diploma. This opportu¬
nity is well worth learning more
about. The wise young man
plans his future carefully so that
ino opportunity escapes him.
There is certainly a need for
such men in United States
Marine Corps. The local Marine
Recruiting Office is located at
ROOM 41 POST OFFICE BUILD¬
ING CHATTANOOGA and is
staffed with men who are well
qualified to advise and counsel
young men who desire to satisfy
their military obligations in the
most useful manner for them¬
selves and for the United States.
