EDITORIAL
Every one is proud of the great record
that the basket ball team has made in the
past two weeks. The whole school is be
hind you and has been behind you since
the first of the season. All we can say is,
go to it, boys, and keep up the same record
you have made.
As much as we hate to lose Mr. Price,
who has been with us for about a year and
a half, we feel that we are very fortunate
in being able to get Mr. Phillips. If each
and every one does his or her part we can
soon make Mr. Phillips feel that he is not
a new man, but that he is “one of us.”
To the parents and to the pupik we
plead for a better support of the teachers
and the principal. The parents should
know them, and the entire faculty extends
to them an open hand. Do not wait until
there is some trouble that brings you to
the school. Come over and meet the ones
that are striving for the best of your chil
dren at all times.
What is the matter? Do the parents
lack interest in the work of their children ?
With a student body of about seven hun
dred and fifty it seems that the Parent-
Teachers Association should be much lar
ger than it is. Parents, come over and
give the association a trial. If you do not
benefit by it, come again and try 'to help
those that are working so hard for the
school. Only through the co-operation of
the parents can the best results be ob
tained.
That’s What It Says.
John and Mary were talking and their
young aunt overheard the following con
versation : “ I am glad that they have such
good things to eat in Heaven,” said Mary.
“You silly, they don’t eat at all up
there,” observed John.
“I guess they do, John Marten,” an
swered the eight-year-old Mary, with dig
nity. ‘ ‘ It says in my catechism: ‘ ‘ The
Lord makes perserves and keeps us.”—

So she married Doug. Fairbanks,
To keep from Owen Moore.

“Tell me, old man, you’ve been married
longer than I have, do you give your wife
an allowance or does she ask you for the
money she needs?”
“Both.”—Cornell Widow.
First Wife—My dear, you have a model
husband.
Second Ditto—Thank you, very much.
She hurried home and looked up
“model” in the dictionary. This is what
she found: ‘ ‘ Model ’ ’—a small imitation of
the real thing.

GIRLS’ QUINT CAPTURES
TWO MORE CONTESTS
Asheville and Danville Come Out at the
Small End of Two Scores.
Saturday night on the Y. M. C. A. court
the Girls’ Basket Ball team won its sixth
game of the season when it defeated the
Asheville quintet by a score of 26 to 17.
The game was a spirited and hard fought
one, the visiting team showing much tenee-
ity in holding on to the ball. The foul
goals of Doris Stinnett were features for
Greensboro side. Though the Asheville
girls put up a hard fight, they probably
could have played much better if they had
been more rested, as this was the second
game they played since they left home. The
line-up was:
Greensboro—Stinett, f.; Irvin, f.; White-
ly, e.; Fetter, g.; Forsythe, g.; substitutes:
•Johnson, Meyers and Butner.
Asheville—Alexander, f.; Booton, f.;
Nealy, e.; Lyda, g.; Brown, g.; substitutes :
\’annemain, Williams and Messer.
Greensboro-Danville Game.
Saturday night at Danville the Greens
boro girls defeated the Danville quintet by
the close score of 18 to 17. The game was
one of the hardest fought and most exciting
played this season. Greensboro played on
the defensive throughout and the game was
played in thirds. The scores of the thirds
were 5 to 4, 14 to 13 and 18 to 17, all in
favor of G. H. S. The Danville forwards
and the Greensboro guards probably did
the best W’ork during the game.
The Greensb tro line-up was as follows:
Nellie Irvin, f.; Doris Ctinnett, f.; Katie
THE INEVITABLE PUFFS
If any girl should chance to meet
A handsome boy out on the street.
Do not bring out the powder-puff.
For fear your nose has not enough 
’Cause if jmur beau should chance to
smoke
(Pray do not take this as a joke)
The match may light your powdered face.
And blow you way out into space
So bew'are of powder-puffs so white.
And puffs of smoke blown out of sight.
Roger Mack, please have a care,
And do not smoke ’most anywhere;
For powder-puffs are numerous.
And may not be so humorous.
Hi-Rocket.
