'THE INDIAN WARWHOOP" EDITORIAL STAFF EDITOR-IN-CHIEF - Mabel Claire H<**ard SCHOOL NEWS Syiria Applebaum COLUMBIAN SOCIETY REPRESENTATIVE - -Lois Parker HESPERIAN LITERARY SOCIETY Roee Mitchell ATHLETICS 1 Aries IsenhoVrer ATHLETICS, 2 Columbus McKeel JOKE EDITOR Aubrey Dilday FACULTY SUPERVISOR Emily D. Gayle EDITORIAL With thin lame begins the aecond year of the life of the "Indian War whoop." Thin paper dates its birth from the fall of '22 when with Thom as W. Baker at the helm it first pat oat to sea. During the first weeks it was only by the use of great skill and cantidosneas on the part of the pilot and Us crew that it was prevent ed from striking rocks and being de stroyed on its maiden voyage. Bat, as time passed H became easier sailing and our paper began in part a* least _ to fulfill its purpose to give a clear insight into school life. When at com Tosncement we looked back over its journey we concluded that it had. in deed had a successful voyage. Those former pilots have passed from Our midst but the "Warwhoop" shall not also pass away. Other pi lots have been found and with this former voyage as a guide we shall endeavor to give to the public a bit ter means of keeping in touch with the school life. Our new| must nec essarily be of much the same type as before though we hope in a fsr more perfected manner. At intervals dur ing the year we shall publish stories, themes, poems, and other such mater ial, all of which shall be taken from the Jtnglish work done by the stud ents. Last year we confined this large ly t? the Juniors end Seniors, but by the close of this term we hope to Have printed some product of every pupil in the high school. There will also be the reports from the socie ties which we trust will help to keep the friends and patrons of the school interested in these two helpful or ganist! ana which though only a year old, Save done much toward training and 'developing their members, i Thus this page we hope to stim ulate greater interest in athletics. Lut session marked the ?*1 begin ning of this necessary feature of the school work in our school and with thjs basissupon which to build we ex pect to train teams which shall be know* through out this section. Not only do we hope to have boys' teams but girls' as well. Bdt our ship is yet new and its crew inexperienced; many will be the rocks which it shall strike and nnmerous the storms which shall overtake ft. Therefore, we ask yon, one and all, to wish our ship "God speed" as it begins its aecond voy age and when the spring shall come may it sail safely Into harbor wav ing high the flag Of victory. L. : J JUNIOR HIGH SCHOOL Ahoekie High School has establish ed a Junior High School, composed of the sixth, seventh grades. Seventy fonr pupils are enrolled in this de part, and the new plap is working fine. The pupils like the idea very much. Misses Mina Holloman, Mary Thomas and Ethel Bynum compose the faculty of the Junior High, and all indications point to every success ful year. ?ATHLETICS? Ahoslde last year put out a brand of athletics that was a credit to the town of Ahoskie and still more to the school. This year it looks as if we shall have winning teams also. Coach Otwell, who has charge of athletics in the school, has had the candidates for the boys' basketball team out regularly for the last few days, practicing then and getting in shape after the sumnser'e relaxation. Among the candidates for this year's team are Horace Garrett and Harry Holloman, letter men of last year and year before last; Robert Hoggard, letter mail of last year; Ho race Johnson and Lin wood Parker, second string men of last year; and, Ray Hoggard, Haywood Phaup, Ev errette Brinkley, CHng Odera, Hen ry Clay Odom and Clarke Sinclair, all new men. Coach Otwell thinks, out of the ma terial that has volunteered for prac tice, Ahoskie will again put out a winning tsMB. The girlf hove also begun practice, but as yet have not secured anyone to coach them. They hope, though, to get a coach and begin some real prac tice with the idea of putting out a team superior to any Ahoskie has ev er produced. The candidates for the girls' team are Saliie Newaome, Ada Belle Ses soms, Bessie Cowan, Aries Isenhow er, Sailey Burgees, Pauline Cooke, Lois Parker, Goldie Lassiter, Alpha Newseme and tab Plythe. ?om? of ... these are members of lest year's team; some are second team players of last year, and some new candi dates who are oat for the first time. ' Still another branch of athletics is the Junior Athletic Association, which includes the boys between IS and 16 years of age. They hare al ready organised and are planning to challenge any Junior team In the schools of the neighboring counties. These youngsters play well, and display such grit, that the Ahoskie school is already beginning to think of the class they will draw when they are old enough and laige enough to take part in the Senior Athletics of the school. Coach Otwell has announced that volley ball and other branches of athletics will be played. He says that he intends to have field day exercis es occasionally, which will include running, jumping, pole Vaulting, and the shot put With the material at his command Mr. Otwell believes it possible to put out winning teams in practically ev ery line that will reflect nothing but glory and honor on the school.

H. G. Snipes, of Menola, protested strongly against Hertford County tax collectors collecting Hertford County money and turning it over to North amnton for its school at Woodland.

CHropradfc ^ ^ 5 ; '? 3^^SS?t (SPlNALt O ?^55, Adjustments p Bl?W? wnt L Remove the y\ * S Chiropractic, (KI-RO-PRAK-TIC), is a scientific method of adjusting the CAUSE of disease withdht drugs or instruments, based on a correct knowledge of anatomy, and especially the nervous system. The Chiropractic idea is that the cause of disease is in the person afflicted, and the adjustment is to cor rect the wrong that is producing it. i The function of every organ in the body is con trolled by the nerve of life or nerve energy which is carried to all parts of the body by the nerves. Any impingement (pinch) of these nerves interfering with the transmission of nerve energy results in an abnormal function called disease. Nature is the Chiropractic's only aid?adjust ments remove the pinch on the nerves and enable na ture to do her part in making and keeping the body well. Ninety-five per cent of diseases are due to pres sure upon nerves along the sides of the vertebral col umn (backbone). This pressure interferes with their functions; hence inflammation, unnatural actiqp, pain and distress are manifested where these nerves end. All diseases are prolonged until this pressure up- < on the nerves leading to the affected parts are adjust ed. It is the business of the Chiropractor to release this pressure when the adjustment is made. We will be pleased to give you information re garding the Drugless Health Science of Chiropractic, such that will be of unquestioned value to you. No cost for consultation and advice. DR. J. B.
