Cotton School News
The Cotton School declared a vaca¬
tion Wednesday evening for Christ¬
mas holidays, which will last for some
ten days, being called into action
again on January 4th, 1926.
The faculty of Cotton School seems
to be joyous over work and progress
made by school during the Fall term
and report that after grading mid¬
term examination papers that major¬
ity of pupils made high score, al
though strict scoring was done all
through the tests.
This is a fair indication of work
of both teachers and pupils and places
each in a good position for work to
be done during the coming spring
term.
The enrollment is the largest ever
in the history of the Cotton School,
which bespeaks of splendid work be¬
ing done by teachers. The enroll¬
ment which is near two hundred dai¬
ly, with best average attendance on
record, affords an excellent oppor¬
tunity for good work.
The cooperation given the teachers
and school on part of parents and
patrons has been good and has had
much to do with the success of this
institution, although there are those
who would censure and knock the
institution that next to church of
Christ means most to them and their
prized jewels, their boys and girls,
on the other hand there are those
faithful fathers and mothers who are
even striving for an education for
their children, to them, and to the
Board of Trustees, the Cotton School
owes its success. May each continue
to uphold principles of good citizen¬
ship and all Educational (Institutions
in their great work.
There are many pupils in respective
grades who deserve praise for their
splendid work and discipline during
the fall term, so many until it is use¬
less to try and give names, however,
there are some who hold champion¬
ship in certain subjects and grades
for fall term and they are given as
follows:
HONOR ROLL—First Grade.
Millwood Eubanks, A. V. Palmer,
Emmett Broadaway, Car! Collins.
Second Grade Jack Baker, Cliffton
Brown, Stanley Huey, Jesses Hurst,

son.
The prizes offered for best spelling
and most head marks during fall term

Woman Preacher
Says Church Slow
DES MOINES, Iowa.—The church
is traveling in a buggy while the rest
of the world is using high-power au¬
and for this reason needs
to adjust itself, Hiss Hattie Horn, at¬
tractive 19-year-old bobbed haired
girl preacher, declared here yester¬
day.
Miss Horn, who is booming the at¬
tendance at the Promise City Chris¬
tian church where she occupies the
pulpit every Sunday, believes young
people are thinking out and facing
their problems more earnestly and
squarely than those of any other gen
oration.
“There is a tendency,” she said
among elders, with their hide-bound
traditions, to shove youth and youth¬
ful thought aside. It is this conde¬
scending attitude toward youth which
is largely responsible for the present
hysteria about the younger genera¬
tion.”
As to dancing, she does not believe
that it is in itself wrong, but she ex¬
pressed the belief that it has become
a menace through over-emphasis.

expert bookkeeping, stenography,

Christmas is a time of peace, cheerfulness and
good will.
Those who are not at peace with the world; those
who fail to find cheer; those who lack the spirit of good
will—are usually those who are in financial distress.
They may have spent their money as it came, in¬
stead of putting it in a bank; they may have carried it
about, or hidden it, and have been robbed.
Bring your cash surplus to our bank and start
your account now. Let this Christmas be an eventful
day in your life.

PEACE ON EARTH
RARE THIS YEAR
CHRISTMAS PLANS AT JERUSA¬
LEM PROCEED WITH DISTINCT
YANKEE TINGE.
JERUSALEM.—Christmas season
this year finds the Bible lands once
more disturbed by fighting and with
less of that atmosphere of “peace on
earth and good will toward men,”
which is the conventional greeting on
this greatest of Christian feast days.
In Jerusalem, which stands on a
lofty plateau as if holding itself aloof
from the quarreling Mohammedan
Druse tribesmen and Christians in the
valleys below, the missionaries and
American Near East Relief organi¬
zation are providing hospitality for
pilgrims, tourists and refuges in the
spirit of the season.
Weary pilgrims from far countries
are climbing the roads to the city,
2,500 feet above sea level, to rest in
hotels, hospitals and convents before
filing out the single road to Beth¬
lehem to worship at the marble man¬
ger which marks the traditional spot
of the birth place of Christ.
There will be a distinctly Ameri¬
can touch to this year’s celebration.
With funds sent, from the United
States, the American Y. M. C. A.
is providing for the first time in his¬
tory, a community Christmas tree
which is to be for all denominations.
iThe tree will be set up in the field
, of Boaz, where the shepherds watched
their flocks hy night, and it will be
' lighted by electricity and decorated
like the community trees in the
'United States.
I Thousands of pilgrims and tourists
I will see the tree as they come over
the good road from Jerusalem on
foot and by donkey, horse and auto¬
mobile. Among those who will walk

You’ve heard it said, that money talks
Now that is not a jest
For when spending Christmas money here
It talks it’ very best
For Watches, Diamonds and Silverware
Or the Pins and Rings you buy
When trading here, your money talks
But it does not say, “Good bye”
Because
They are “Gifts that Last”
