Pin? Cones 554 Students Enroll For New Year at Smyrna By MARY EI.LEki (SASICEM Gracious sakes! It has hern such a long time since last* May and we here at SHS can honestly say that we have missed everyone of you very much during the summer months. Now that school has start ed there is plenty of news and we want you all to know what is going on. School started last Tuesday, get ting underway with a half day. The whole half day from 9 a.m. until ii ju a.m. was spent in get ting room as signments and renewing old ac quaintances a s well as striking up new ones. We also went to chapel. We miss those o 1 d seniors of last ye a r, bu M now they are all out in the world experiencing a new life and we do hope that they will give a thought to us once in a while. We are all very happy to announce that our school is grow ing by leaps and bounds. Won't be long before we'll be having the biggest school at good old SHS. In our high school we have 172 students and the total of all the students of Smyrna is 554. Do I have to tell you how pnjpd we are of the growing num ber? First let's say "hello" to our large elass of first graders. To them we say, "It's a long way from the first grade to the position of senior, but you will appreciate that position when you reach it. Take our advice and study hard." We have with us, as always, a large freshman class. We know how lost they feel with this, their first year of high school. Let's just wish them the best of luck and hope that the students of Har kers Island, who we are very happy to have with us, don't get lost too often. This year SIIG oondj out a hearty greeting to the two new teachers we have with us. They are Mrs. Maurice P. Garner, who teaches Home Economics and a freshman homeroom class, and Mrs. Pearl Alligood, who teaches second grade. First, say hello to a mighty Cine looking (now you boys, hold back the wolf whistles) young lady. Meet Mrs. Maurice Garner, our home economics teacher. Mrs. Gar ner, who lives at Davis, is the wife of Mr. Garner, the Baptist minis ter of Davis. She originally hails from Panhandle in Texas. She has three children, two of whom are in school. Back home in Texas she attended Texas Tech where she majored in home eco nomics. Mrs. Garner says, "I love to teach, mainly because I love young people. I love to help them with their problems and to watch them grow into adults." To say something extra about Mrs. Garner we'd likt to add that she has one of the most pleasant smiles and personality that any one could possess. Now, let's say "howdy" to ano ther personality who has made such a big hit with the students here at SHS . . . Mrs. Pearl Alli good. Mrs. Alligood lives in Davis where she has always lived. She is also a former graduate of SHS and we all welcome her back with us. Mrs. Alligood went to Atlantic Christian College where she ma jored in primary education. Back here in Carteret County she is a favorite with everyone. She has taught at Harkers Is!-rw*. Smyrna, Stacy, Williston, and Beaufort. Mrs. Alligood says the main rea son she enjoys teaching is because she likes children so very much and enjoys seeing them learn and grow. Meet the new bus drivers! Ron nie Arthur, Terry Giliikin, Philip Smith, Ann Davis, Louis Thomas, Sonny Davis, and Keith Moore. Phillip, Keith, Sonny, and Louii are old hands at this very impor tant Job as they drove their own buses last year. However, nay w* all Join ia to wish them the best of luck in their very important and responsible job. Honestly folks, they have ? big responsibility ahead of them as it involves getting us to and from school safely as well as on time. I believe they all need a good word of encouragement. Wha saye we sealers don't get right down to buaiaeasf I mean to Ml yon ve went to wark (he day after adiool started aad we have already got the moat accom plished. There are SS seniors with the Idea to study hard and gra duate with flying colors. Our sen ior advisor ia Mrs. Barbara Willis and with her to guide us we are sure we shall pass over the rough spots of tkia jraar as It they wan merely little dots. Two of our farmer Mori were married during the summer. Helen Lewi* is now Mrs. Larry Moore and Rachel Tyler ia now Mrs. Frank Moore. Helen kill cdBH back to finish her last year with us and w ware rary prsad. hsrt Maehel is at home Wing the perfect wife to Frank. Everyone misses Rachel and we'll even miss her worse when basketball season rolls around. Mack O'Neal of Harkers Island is back with us after attending school away for a year. We are very happy to have Mack with us and I'm sure he's as happy to be with us as we are to have him. Busy bee, that's what they are all catling us. But who can help it? It is our last year at scfcool and the*# is so ?nneli to do and ?o many memories to collect that we have io keep busy. We have already be gun selling Christmas cards as our class project and along with that we have begun selling ads and subscriptions to our school paper, The Pine Barker.

The 4-H Clubs of SHS met Mon day and I must say that the num ber of students to enroll was quite large. Of course, Smyrna has been credited with having the largest Senior 4-H Club in the county and we can really be proud of that honor this year. At this first meeting of the year j Mr. Knott led us in singing The Watermelon Song. Then Mrs. Gar ner and Mr. Knott explained the j projects and completion of them | as well as discussed Achievement Day which will be held at the County Court HouSt Oct. 1>. . -Sraynta shares its -%it ef out standing honors also. Several of the 4-H members of SHS have| really made news in the past sum-j mer. To begin with George Simp son, a member of the Intermediate 4-H Club was selected as Junior Health King in the County Health pageant. Ann Davis, a junior and a mem i ber of the Senior 4-H Club took county honors in the public speak ing contest and placed third in the 1 district elimination contest held at| Washington in June. Mary Ellen Chasteen, a senior and member of the Senior 4-H Club, took county honors in the Dariy Foods Dem onstration contest and went on to1 win third place in the District Elimination Contests. The week of July 23 28 Mary Ellen Chasteen represented Smyr na 4-H Clubs as a representative to State 4-H Week at State College where she was enrolled in song leadership classes. At this first meeting of the year time ran out altogether too soon and we had time only to elect one officer of our club. That was the important job of president. Mary Ellen Chasteen was elected as the new president. I am indeed grateful and hon ored that you have chosen me to j lead your club through this, my Phone Company Offers Stock Plan AD qpydiyjees' stock plan, the first of its kind for Carolina Itele phoae and Telegraph Co., went Into effect friday. The plan will enable employees of the company with more thaa three months' service to purchase the company's stock on a payroll deduction installment arrangement at the rate of $5 per month per share.
