Club Starts Point System
Business was the main point
of the Bible Club meeting Wed
nesday, September 21. It was
decided to order a pin for each
member. The pin will be blue
with A. H. S. Bible Club printed
at the top and a red cross in
the middle.
A point system was voted on
and accepted. Each member
must have eight points each
month, and if not, he will be su
spended for one month and then
he must pay his dues again. The
club has four meetings each
month and the presence at each
meeting counts two points; there
fore it is easy to stay in the
club. There are many other
means for making points such as
bringing a visitor or new mem
ber, being an officer, or taking

part in a program. At the end
of the first semester, the member
with the most points will-receive
an award. The point system is
to get members to 'work more
and to obtain a greater interest
in the club.
Prayer meetings will be held
again this year each Thursday
at 8:00 o’clock before school in
Miss Abrahamsen’s room. This
is a meeting held to pray for
others and for starting the day off
right.
Since it was so effective last
year, the Bible Club was encour
aged by the teachers to write de
votions for the homeroom again.
These will be sent to the home
rooms for the devotions on Mon
days. Also, a program will be
held over the loud speaker once
a month.
A new project will be to place
a big card with a prayer on it
in the cafeteria where the stu
dents can see it as they enter.
This is to remind them to be
thankful for their food.
The Bible Club will have an
other assembly program this
year. It will be comical and se
rious. Everyone enjoyed last
year's program and the members
hope that this year’s program will
be enjoyed as well.

Display Exhibits
The Science Department of Al
bemarle High School, under the
direction of Mr. R. C. Hatley, had
one of the displays in the exhibit
hall of the Stanly County Fair,
which was held during the week
of September 19-24. Featured in
the display were the outstand
ing projects of previous years.
Barbara Holt’s doll display
with Skipper Gantt’s jet engine
proved to be the main eye-catch
ers. Posters done by the Gen
eral Science Class made the back
ground for the display, with Rita
Morris’ poster being the most out
standing. Also a series of pul
leys by the general science class
es proved to be very interesting
for the mechanically minded.
The physics class contributed
several machines, with a series
of bells done by Joan Melton of
last year. The piano, which works
on the principle of electric door
bells, was one of the elaborate
contributions to the exhibit.
Several quotations from promi
nent scientists topped the dis
play, which was termed “fully
successful” by Mr. Hatley.
