office of the superintendent stating
today that the remaining faculty po
sitions now vacant would, in all piub
ability, be filled over the week-end
and that the plants are in good con
dition for the opening
Vacation days for approximately
7.000 white and colored children in J
this county are fast drawing to a
close, and parents are now turning to
the stores and shops for the school
outfits and supplies The tobacco
harvesting season invariably brings'
a rush, but there'll be a lot of twist
ing and turning next Thuisday :
morning to get 7.000 little tots and J
young folks off to school, and for
some the school rush will be even ,
greater-than the "tobacco marketing
period
It is a rare privilege for tin little
folks of tins county and others
throughout this land of ours to re
turn to school under a-pat lent deny
cracy and in peace. There are few
other lands in the earth where little
folks can go to get an education and
incidentally to learn about our way
of life.
On this page and elsewhere in this
paper, important messages are di
rected to parents invited their pat
