Business Mgr. - - Allen Johnson With the formation of the new Jun ior High, the Lexington City Schools have made their greatest advancement in recent years. The two hundred and sixteen seventh grade students have been given an opportunity to adjust themselves to high school life and thus will be better leaders in their last school years. The one hundred and ninety-six freshmen will not be at a loss this year in High School, as has been the case of many freshmen class es in past years. With the proper guidance that these students have, we, the upper classmen, have a right to expect big things from them. We be lieve that they should make our school rank among the leaders in the state. Junior High Students, prepare your selves now, lor big things are expected of you in the future. Welcome, New Students! We upper classmen take this opportunity to ex tend to you a hearty welcome. Well do we remember when we were in your shoes, but somehow we lived through it. You can be assured that you will receive all the courtesy and aid that we can give you. We want you to feel that you are part of the school and that'everything is done in your interest as much as it is for the older students. Already you have shown your willingness to cooperate and your fine school spirit. There’s nothing that expresses our feelings more than the one word wel come. Welcome to L. H. S.!!! WELCOME, NEW TEACHERS! FACULTY ADVISORS Miss Hazel Griffin, Miss Sara Springs EDITORIAL The Lexhipep makes it’s first ap pearance with this issue since the bank holiday was declared. On account of a small sum of money being left from the treasury last year the staff is able to issue it’s first paper without cost to the pupils. The staff will be composed of members from the Junior and Sen ior High School, however representa tives from the seventh and eighth grades have not been elected yet. These new members will make their debut on the staff with the next issue. According to reguiations for the year 1933-34, passed by the faculty, report cards will be issued every eight weeks. Last year reports were given every six weeks. The change was thought advisable on account of the eight months school term. ECONOMICS DEPARTMENT IMPROVED Many improvements in the Home Economics Department have made that study much more interesting to the girls who are taking it. They are delighted with the home kitchen and the model dining room. Even the kitchen laboratory has new gas stoves and new utensils will be added later. Paint has been used to advantage on the walls, and the general appearance is much better than in former years. Miss Anne Hali, formerly of Peace In stitute in Raleigh, will endeavor to make this a bigger and better year for the Home Economics Department. A very cordial welcome is extended to the Junior High School teachers. We consider ourselves very fortimate in obtaining such fine teachers for our new students. We know that they wiil cooperate with the other teachers in all school activities. These teachers are: Miss Bm-gess from Robbins; Miss Lindsay from Holt; Misses Springs and Harmon from Cecil; Mr. Richard Wal- ser, who formerly taught at Linwood; and Mr. Joe Sink, of Duke University, who will assist Mr. Young in coaching football. The Lexhipep Staff wishes to com mend the student body for its excellent display of school spirit at the Lincoln- ton game. Also, the students conduct ed themselves in a creditable fashion during the parade which preceded the game. No better public showing of our student body can be made than a whole-hearted and enthusiastic support of the football games at home and away. Support your school and team! Attend the games and enter into the school yells and songs! Two of our new teachers, to whom we wish to extend a welcome, are Mr. Marion Justice, who finished at Wake Forest in '33, and Miss Jessie Martin, a graduate of Meredith College. Mr. Justice is teaching Biology and Chem istry, and Miss Martin has charge of the French Department. JOKES Mr. Stokes, explaining algebra ex ample: “Now watch the board care fully while I go through it.” Frank Green: Why act so sad? Forget your troubles and just lose yourself in your work. Jim Leonard: Don’t be a sap. Don’t you know I’m a cement mixer. Frosh: That’s funny. Senior: What? Frosh: Oh, I was just thinking. Senior: That’s funny. Student: Who do people always go to South Carolina to get married? Mr. Walser: Because of the age lim it. Henry Etta Link: Oh, Mr. Walser! What is the age limit? Twinkle, twinkle little star. How I wish I were a senior. —^A Freshman. Mr. Justice says chlorophyll is green particles; the freshman class must be made up of chlorophyll. Senior: What is celery? Sophomore: Rhubard with a low- blood pressure.
