GLEE CLUB PRACTICE
Because it has been examination week,
the Orchestra and glee clubs have not hau
their usual practice. However, they will
renew their practices this week with as
much zeal and firmer than ever.
Everyone wishes our musical members
luck, and hope to have the pleasure of
ncaviiig them again soon.
Where can a man buy a cap for his knee.
Or a key to the lock of his hair?
Can his eyes be called an academy
Because there are pupils there?
In the crown of his head, what games are
found ?
Who travels the bridge of his nose?
Can he use, when shingling the roof of his
mouth.
The nails on the end of his toes ?
Can the crook of his elbow be sent to jail?
If so, what did he do?
How does he sharpen his shoulder blade?
I ’ll ibe hanged if I know—do you ?
Can he sit in the shade of the palm of his
hand ?
Or Ibeat on teh drum of his ear ?
Hoes the calf of his leg eat the corn on his
toes ?
If so—why not grow corn on the ear?
Lucy w'as gazing through the window of
a local photographer, her eye glued on a
certain picture. It was the annual proces
sion of school children through the village.
“Mary, come ere!’’ she shrieked.
“What’s the matter, Lucy?’’ asked the
other.
“Well, you see that photo of Annie
Smith on the third row there-”
“Yes,” replied Mary, “and what about
it?”
“An’ you see the pair of boots behind
Annie ?”
“Yes.”
“Well, that’s me!”
Spanish, Shorthand, English, History,
Gee! Its some mystery.
How I’ll ever paiss.
But I’m thankful I’m not alone—
In my class!
How to Make a Ford!
A little gas,
A little oil,
A little spark
A little coil.
A piece of tin.
And a two-inch board.
Put them together
And you’ll have a “Ford.’
Miss Morrow to Harry Brumley, after
she had told him to pay attention several
times: “Harry Brumley, you haven’t got
any. more control over your mind than I
have!”
‘TENNIS’
The spiders all wished to play tennis,
They spun their fine nets right away.
For balls they procured some round cur
rants,
For rackets they hunted all day.
Then noisily rude with his buzzing.
Along came a huge bumble bee.
And crashed through the delicate netting;
“I’ll furnish a racket,” said he.
MR. PRICE RESIGNS AS RRINCIPAL
OF HIGH SCHOOL
He Goes to Birmingham to Take up Religi
ous Work
The High School teachers are planning
to give a farewell banquet for Mr. Price
on Tuesday, Feb. 1, at High School Cafe
teria. We are extremely sorry to lose Mr.
Price, but we feel that he is to ibe congratu
lated on his promotion. He goes to enter
the field of religious education where his
superior training in educational work and
unusual native ability will find a broader
field for expression. His connection with
the High School ends Jan. 28. Mr. and
Mrs. Price will leave for Birmingham,
Ala., their future home, about the middle
of February.
The service Mr. Price has rendered the
Greensboro High School is inestimable. We
feel that in the field of organization and
scholarship his work will be a pei-mauenc
contribution to our progress.
Mr. Guy Phillips, who will succeed Mr.
Price as principal of the High School,
visited the school Wednesday. We feel
that we are very fortunate to secure Mr.
Phillips a-s he is a school man of recogniz
ed ability and broad experience. He
graduated from U. N. G. in the class of
1913, and accepted a position as head of the
English department and coach of the foot
ball team in the Raleigh high school.
Here his work attracted such wide spread
attention he was elected to the superin-
tendeney of the Oxford schools at the ex
piration of his second year. This position
he filled until last summer when he resign
ed to organize a county thrift program un
der the aupices of the Oxford banks.
Mr. Phillips expressed himself as being
pleased with the organization of our school
and is enthusiastic in undertaking the com
pletion of the year’s program.
Miss Summer in Latin trying to as
sign the lesson : ‘ ‘ All of you please be sure
and study this vocabulary out loud to
yourself.”
