Affer a very delightful vacation we are back again with ail earnest de sire and determination to make the present terra tho best or the school year and to make the year 1923 one oi the most- successful years of our jtfe. School opened Jan.' "3 with only a little more than half of our enrollment present but this number has been some what increased this week^Twoagh many of our pupils are still ab3ent on ac count of sickness and other causes. We wish all a speedy recovery and hope that they may sojn be able to re sume tlsclr work with us. We are very sorry that two of pur high school pupils Gray Bird and Ol lie Jack Murphy have been unable to attend school since Christmas on ac count of the illness and death of their parents, Mr. and Mrs. \V. B. Murphy, who died last week with pneumonia. The sympathy of the whole school and community goes out to them in their bereavement. The Sunday school and B. Y. P. U. of the Cedjir Rock Baptist church com pleted their organization for the year of 1&23, last Sunday. Most of the old officials of each were re-elected and we hope that they may make a great success this year. The Sunday school has recently attained the goal of being one of the few standard Sunday schools ln*T. C. ' The basket ball team which up to the present time has been getting in condition for the Spring term will like ly have a full schedule this week with probably two games on the home court and one at Justice. The Sophomore class play "Unac quainted With Work" or "Married in Thirty Days" will be rendered the sec ond time in the high school auditorium next Thursday night, Jan. 18, at 7:30. This play was given night before the Christmas holidays, but on account of the weather and sickness In the com munity only a small crowd was pres ent. This is a new play of unusual merit and is very popular not only with ameteurs but professional play ers. It Is a comedy from beginning to end, but under this runs a current of drama, which holds the Interest of the audience. Although this play was rendered before, under the great han dicap of one character being absent and another substituted within three days. It was pronounced a tilt by the small crowd present and there have been Heveral requests that it be re. ipeated. We hope to have some good I music for the occasion and we also I hope that' the people of the community . win cooperate with the school and i 1 ALWAYS HAS THE XEATE9T AD1 THP.
