Improvements of The School
Cafeteria
The P. T. A. gave Mrs. R. H.
Ayscue the profits which she col
lected from the lunch room to
spend on its improvements.
Formerly there were two long
tables and two long benches.
There was no separation between
the kitchen and the cafeteria. Now
there are eight tables with six
chairs to each table, curtains, and
a linoleum rug has been added
oilcloth coverings are on all the
tables. A partition now separate*
tbe cafeteria from the kitchen.
Delicious and enticing food is
served daily.
. Freshmen Class Project
In connection with the stufly
of eighth grade civics, Mr*. Jewel
C. Bartholomew is making editors
of the class.
We were studying the newspa
per and its influence on public
opinion. She asked for all kinds
of articles of news, editorials etc.,
hoping for a great variety In the
contents of the newspapers to be
published as "The Epsom Times."
Many articles were almost du
plicated and many things or hap
penings in tbe community had no
comment on them.
Wednesday morning Sarah QiU
was appointed as editor in chief.
Janle and Juanlta R. Ayscue were
appointed as assistant editors.
School Playground Equipment
The playground equipment is
now all installed, Seesaws, swings
and more recently the giant stride
has been fixed. Although it seems
to hare been meant for the first
seven grades the high school is
enjoying it as well.
Equipment for the boys and
girls basketball team has been
bought also.
Cooperation in keeping the
school campus beautiful as it is
at the present, seems to be very
active.
Epsom Electrified
An extension of the power ling
of Henderson Is coming down the
Henderson - Louisburg highway
past Epsom to Mr. Johnny Wil
son's home. Prom Epsom It Is
branching down the Milford road
to Miss Margaret Alston's.
Everyone la looking forward to
rnral electrification throughout
the community.
ttchools Need of a Good Library
Epsom High School, as well as
the community, is in need of an
improved library.
Although we have received
some materials necessary for re
pairing the old and worn out
books, we are In need of more
and better books to meet the de
mand of the children.
We are hoping to Improve our
library in every respect.
Basketball Teams
The Epsom boys and girls have
a good record for 1935-36. The
girls have lost only one game.
The girls have made an applica
tion in the tournament at Raleigh.
Their records surpasses any other
team yet entered.
The teams played Oxford Or
phanage last Saturday night. The
boys were defeated but the girls
were victorious. Both teams were
vlctorous over Frankllnton Wed
nesday night and Louisburg
Thursday night.
Sportsmanship
Sportsmanship is essential for
any harmoniously run school. Peo
ple called sports are numerous
but many are not good sports nor
have good sportsmanship. This
word in a general application to
people in the athletic field, I
think It applies in our living to
gether constantly, being able to
accept defeat or victory with the
same applause. When a person
has learned to be a good sport he
has practically mastered the rules
of the games of life. This may he
applied as a definition. Everyone
probably has his Ideal sportsman
but excellent Idealisms are await
ing the cooperation of even more.
In our school! Here, There,
Everywhere.

-- What Others Say --
o
O. T. Page, of Clayton, N. C., says: "I
first used your fertiliser In 1928 and
found It paid so have used it ever since."
(Mr. Page last year planted 34 acres of
cotton and harvested 38 bales, averagings
514 lbs. lint cotton per acre. He used
400 pounds Clayton Rooster per acre.)
Turner Vinson, of Clayton, N. C., says:
"Last year where your fertiliser was used
I made over $300.00 per acre on tobacco
and over 400 pounds of lint cotton per
acre. For ten years I have liked your
fertiliser as well as any I have ever used."
(Mr. Vinson last year planted 50 acres
tobacco, 300 acres in cotton.)
E. P. Sauls, of Raleigh, N. C., R 3, says:
"I. like your fertiliser better than any
other I have ever used and plan to use it
again this year. My crop of 40 acres
averaged better than $300.00 per acre last
year Including all tenants."
T. E. Dupree, of Angier, N. C., R 1,
says: "Your Tobacco brand beats all I
have ever tried. On test last year against
a good competitive brand I made a third
more cotton where I used your Clayton
Rooster Brand."
Wade Dupree, of Angler, N. C., R 1,
says: "I made a test with a fertiliser
that cost $6.00 per ton more than yours.
Your fertiliser beat the other brand $800
on less than 8 acres of tobacco," and I
have never heard anyone that had any
thing but praises for your fertllser.
R. C. Roberts, of Willow Springs, N. C.,
R 1, says: "I planted 14 acres in tobacco
last year and tested your Fertiliser
against another Premium Brand and yours
netted me $02.25 per acre more.
"In 1933 when tobacco was low in price
Mr. Robert* averaged $400.00 per acre
where he used our White Oak 3-8-6 To
bacco Fertiliser."
R. W. Sanders, of Clayton, N. C., says:
"On 212 acres I averaged over 400 lbs.
of lint cotton per acre. For eighteen
years I have used your fertilisers and
find It well balanced and as good as any
I have ever used." J
