JAN. ATTENDANCE LOW
IN COUNTY SCHOOLS
Rankin School, North of White Oak
Has Highest Attendance—94
Per Cent
The average attendance of the county
schools was lower during January than
for any of the four fall months. The
.January average is 84 per cent as
against the 80 per cent for the first
four months. The Rankin school,
north of White Oak, had the highest
attendance, theirs being 94 per cent.
We certainly do pity the poor stu
dents who try to study in the library
during the fifth period.
Tuesday night, February 22, the Hj-Y
clubs had their regular supper. After
the supper the different clubs were di
vided into their chapter rooms for dis
cussions. The mothers serving for the
evening were Mrs. A. A. Atkisson, Mrs.
E. L. Davant, Mrs. C. W. Watson, and
Mrs. T. A. Glascock.
The Hi-Y Club No. 1, or the Robert
E. Lee Club, received a particularly
inspiring message from Mr. O. N. Pe-
tree. Mr. Petree used as his topic,
“Ideal Americanism.” He said that
everything an American boy did today
would come before him in his later
life and what the boy did today would
determine what he would do or be in
his later life.
SMALL ATTENDANCE
DUE TO DEEP SNOWFALL
Only 250 Pupils Present March 2-
Teachers Absent Same Day—At

ABSENCES EXCUSED BOTH DAYS
On Wednesday, March 2, there were
only 250 pupils present at G. H. S.
Twelve teachers were absent. All day
long pupils and teachers were seen
wandering in yery casually. The cause
of all this carelessness in regard to the
old attendance was the heavy snowfall
that day.
The next day nearly everybody was
back on the job. Superintendent Arch
er has ruled that all absences for both
Wednesday and Thursday are excused.
Hi-Y Club Gives Party
