J nday, May 2,1924 THE PILOT Page Eignt MR. TYSON IS DEAD (Continued from page 1) the last. While his health had been declining for some time he never lost his interest in nor oversight of the business which his untiring effort and astute management had helped to make successful. Descended from a family long and favorably known in this section, he inherited the many amiable qualities which so endeared him to those who came in closest con tact with and really knew the man he was. These likable legacies he cul tivated and exemplified in his dealings and association with his fellowman. No complaint of changing business conditions or fault findings with the times in which he lived were ever heard to fall from his lips. He was always able to adjust himself and his affairs to meet conditions as they arose. Of his fellows, no criticism or bickerings ever came from him. His seemed to be the happy faculty of attributing to each the right of his opinion without the hardness of con demnation because it did not always square with his own. While his tongue is silent in that silence that knows no breaking it leaves no memory here of an unkind word spoken of his fel low and no sting of a rebuke or cut ting retort to haunt the recollection of any who associated with him in life. To us, this consideration and forbearance were the outstanding fea tures of his strong and likable per sonality. Tis true he had his feelings and likes and dislikes as all of us, but these he did not portray to the offense of those whom he touched. Within the hallowed family circle, he was the embodiment of husband and father in all the words imply. To invited to each of these entertain ments.

The athletic department not only has led in Moore county but has won many games of note at schools of con siderable importance. The athletic grounds have been completed and double tennis court enclosed. Out- of-doors basket ball course and a vol ley ball court have been equipped on the extensive playgrounds, and all the pupils are encouraged in and super vised constantly in the use of these splendid playgrounds, coming to know it is just as important and nor mal to play as to work. The health department of the school has come in for more than usual at tention, and the question of under nourishment among the pupils has been seriously considered. The daily noon lunches have been served to the pupils under the supervision of Mrs. Bruce Cameron and Miss Rachel Hanna. Mrs. Leonard Tufts, a mem ber of the board of education, pre sented the school with a splendid pair of health scales which are being used.
