GIRLS GET MONOGRAMS

points under the point system. These
four girls, Doris Stinnett, Carlotta
Johnson, Nellie Irvin and Amelia
Sternberger have been unusually ac
tive in athletics and G. H. S. is
rightfully proud of them, Doris
Stinnett has been on the basket ball
team for the last three years, and
is the captain of this year’s team,
which has won every game played
thus far. In the Field Day program
she carried off all the honors, com
ing in first in a number of events
and receiving the greatest number of
individual points of any of the girls.
She is also a great tennis player.
Nellie Irvin has been on the basket
ball team for two years and was
their captain for two years. The first
year she was captain, the girls cap
tured the State Championship, and
last year theey were the Western
State Champions. Carlotta Johnson
has been on the basketball team for
several years and has also entered
into several other phases of girl’s
athletics. She was on the Junior
team, which took first place in the
inter-class contest. Amelia Stern
berger has won her points on swim
ming and diving stunts, in which she
is an expert, and in hiking.
The remaining part of the chapel
was turned over to iVIr. Parks who
told the students of the trip to chapel
Hill which resulted in the G. H. S.
Boy’s Basket ball team downing all
obstacles and becoming the State
Champions. When it was learned
that Mr. Parks was to take 13 boys
on the trip some superstitious peo
ple feared for our chances in win
ning, but Mr. Parks proudly said
that we had won 13 games this
season and that he was sure that
13 was the lucky number of G. H.
S.—which it certainly proved to be.

that has been accomplished and
said that Mr. Parks was a fine type
of man. Mr. Hewitt ended by saying
that he hoped that the boys would
make the kind of men that everyone
expected them to make—true leaders
wherever they were.
Mr. E. Sternberger was then in
troduced. He represented the Rota
ry Club. He said that everyone
would be a celebrity some day in
his own way. To be a celebrity,
one must always take the right road
and do the right and honorable
thing at all times. Thehy must take
go the least bit wrong. When he
was a boy, he was cheated out of
the wondreful things tliat boys do
loday. His chief pastime was play
ing marbles and he had no chance
to display leadership, but now, the
boys have the wonderful athletic
games that give them a chance to
display all that is in them. In other
words, the athletics of today makes
ed the Civitan Club was introduced,
olit of us fine citizens of tomorrow.
Mr. Charlie Hines, who represent-
He congratulated the basket ball
boys on their recent victory and the
manner in which it had been accom
plished. The most important factor
in winning the victory was team
work and no grand stand play. He
said that he could not emphasize the
value of team work enough. That
the reason some colnmittees do not
progress as rapidly as others is be
cause team work is lacking. Mr.
Hines said that Woodrow Wilson at
tributed his failure to the fact that
he had only a one track mind. And
he could not co-operate with the
nations across the sea. Inability to
see things in a broad way is the
cause of failure in some cases. Also
failure to try to understand our
neighbors makes us failures by shut
ting us oil from the spirit of fellow
ship that we should have for each
other. Being on a team helps us
develop this fellowship, we can do
few things alone. Mr. Hines closed
by quoting a selection from Kipling.
“It’s not the guns an’ armament
Nor the army as a whole,
But the everlasting team-work
Of every bloomin’ soul.”
Mr. Will Preyer, a Kiawanian,
was then introduced. He put across
the idea that it took the co-operation
of the whole school to produce a
team that has accomplished what our
team has. He said that victory car
ried responsibility and that he was
glad that we ordinary, every-day
folks who had to work hard , for our
laurels.
Mr. Wilkins was then introduced.
We always associate Mr. Wilkins I
with the school activities that we j
carry on, because he is always inter-1
ested in everything that we do. He j
said that he had seen most of the i
games this season and that they were [
fine, well-played games. But he did I
not want our team to get puffed'
up and proud over their victory. He !
knew that the team had not always |
followed the straight and narrow 1
path as it should, but it got by with j
it this time, but it should always do
what is right because some day, per
haps, the element of luck will not
enter in our race and help us.
Mr. Park, the coach of the team,
closed the program. He told us
that playground work was being
carried on in the grammar grades,
so we would have material, in the
years to come, for another such
team. That this play ground work
promoted a spirit of ^o-operation
and leadership among the younger
boys. He said that he thought it
would be fine if every healthy, red-
blooded boy in every town of the U.
S. should have to take the hike that
the boys of Avient and Parton had
to take when they reached the
age of 13 years,—It is “with this
life I will uphold the honor of the
institutions of the city that I love.”

WHY ONE IN 100 FAILS
Probably the largest sidewalk in
the world is to be built to connect
the cities of Albany and Schenectady,
N. Y., a distance of 17 miles, for
the protection of pedestrians using
the public road between those two
cities.
There are about 1,800,000 business
concenis in our country. In the
last decade failures have averaged
14.152 a year or less tnan one in
100.

Incompetence heads the list. This
shows the value of schooling and ex
perience laboriously and slowly ac
quired.
Lack of capital comes second as a
reason for failure. In most cases,
that can be overcome only by patient
saving.
Business conditions, third in rank
as a failure cause, are beyond the
control of any individual. The best
we can do is save a reserve fund for
the leap-years.
