SOUTHPORT | SCHOOL NEWS EDITORIAL At the beginning of the school year clubs were started with a wave of enthusiasm. Students i seemed interested when they had j the privilege of forming two en-1 tirely new organizations. This was j all done, you see. to help develop j any talent abilities of all individuals. More than a few times! you have heard the urge to de- j velop yourself to the greatest pos- j sible extent. Now may I ask?What are you i doing, students, to let your own j abilities blossom forth ? Every club has the wonderful oportunity of showing in some material way its progress. But still morb wonderful is the chance to develop behind the scenes. The Dramatic Club has already given us a sample of its fine workmanship. From reports the Glee Club is still in the earliest i stages of rhythmic expressions. Their public debut is just around | the corner. For a while there was i a lot of talk about airplane I models and about a field trip. ! Maybe the field trip expired after I the Outdoor Girls entertained the' Airplane boys at a party.

I ?A Teacher? t CHEERING AT GAMES t Whenever we have a basketball 1 game, we want everybody to .come k and cheer the players because it fc will help them to win the games. However there are some things J which have occurred at the I games, such as runing around in e the balcony, shrill whistling, I stomping the floor, and hitting 11 the floor with a board, which show bad citizenship. We think the players could play better if this were stopped. If it " isn't stopped, the offenders will be put out and not be allowed ? to come back. GIRLS SAFETY PATROL Mr. Lingle has brought out the " idea of a girls' safety patrol. The idea was to have a girl a and boy shift, if the girls can be n a success like the boys. And we la feel sure they can. The girls | think it is a excellent idea. A j" large number of girls has signi- j fied wishes to be on the patrol. 0 All seem interested very much in e il- ' s WHAT GOES ON Several of our students are taking interest in the work of various churches in our community. Our Glee Club and Dramatics e Club are working on a pageant ja they are to present at Christmas. a The basketball teams are play-' ing quite a few games and it | ^ can be seen that they have some i good material in the making. jSl Both elementary and high ! school grades are keeping very j clean rooms. In the halls and classrooms i r more citizenship is being shown ' each day. ^ Our school grounds are being kept cleaner lately. There have been several parents md friends visiting us recently. si The Seniors and the fourth ir grade claimed the attendance ban- tl aer at P.-T. A. last Thursday b; sight. si CHAPEL PROGRAM U Last Wednesday the fifth grade i r< presented an interesting and bene- j Ficial program in chapel for the | ipproval of the student body. The j bi program consisted of the rules of | tl the Good American Citizen and a P school room scene that was car- j bi ied out in singing. Betty Todd j a: Corlette was the teacher and she , s( lid. a splendid bit of singing for i child of her age. The classes' w musical responses to the teacher's tl juestions were well given. pi Members of the student body e< think the play was well worth- bi vhile and that the fifth grade it needs a lot of credit for putting j >n such a gooa showing with ( so little time in which to prepare ai t.

Paying Farmers To Plant Trees Government Is Interested In Reforestation And Will Pay Farmers For Doing This Work RRALEIGH, Dec. 11.?The U. S. Government will pay North Carolina farmers to plant forest seedlings on their land and help reforest it, State Forester J. S. Holmes of the Department of Conservation and Development said today. Farmers cooperating with the Agricultural Adiustment Admin istration in carrying on soil building practices and who are participating in benefit payments, may get an additional credit of $30 each if they will plant as much as four acres of land to forest trees, according to a new bulletin just issued by the AAA in Washington. "This $30 will more than pay for the cost of trees and for planting them", said F. H. Claridge, assistant forester in charge of the State Forest Nurseries. "Farmers can buy enough trees and get them planted for $4 an acre, planting about 1,000 trees to the acre, so that the entire four acres should not cost more than $16, leaving $14 clear profit or to spend in planting several more trees." Approximately 4,000,000 baby forest trees are now almost ready for distribution from the two forest nurseries maintained by the forestry division of the Department of Conservation and Development. These seedlings may be purchased for $2 per thousand from the State Forester in Raleigh. Most of these seedling are loblolly, slash, shortleaf or longleaf pine, although there are several thousand seedlings of other varieties available, including cedar, white pine, black locust and black walnut.
