I Senior Hi-Light
I By EDNA BOSWELL
For the past few years the Senior
i Class of E. H. S. has attended the
State Fair in a body. This trip, ac
cording to all reports, has been one of
■ the most enjoyable ones taken. The
Class of ’54, in class meetings of last
week, has carefully laid out plans to
make such a trip. The class has de
cided to leave Edenton at six o’clock
on October the twentieth, and to re
turn late that same evening.
In order to raise money for the An
-1 nual project, the Seniors are selling
concessions at each home football
| game. The sale is proceeding nicely,
‘ but naturally, we hope that with each
game the proceeds will increase.
This week the Seniors chosen to be
introduced to you are Libby Small and
Ben Browning.
Libby, daughter of Mr. and Mrs.
Charlie Small, was bom in Chowan
County on February 15, 1936. She is
in the Tri-Hi-Y, the Glee Club and
is an excellent majorette in the High
School Band. Driving, going to mov
-1 ies, dancing and teaching baton les
-1 sons are her main interests.- Although
Libby isn’t quite sure what college
1 she will attend, she will definitely
' study business administration.
Ben, bom November 25, 1935 in
Rocky Mount, moved to Edenton at
the age of ten. He is the son of Mrs.
Mary L. Browning. This year Ben is
the Editor of the Annual, a Student
Council representative, a member of
the Beta Club, a bus driver, and is
president of the Hobby Club. He is
also photographer for the Athletic
Department. Next Fall Ben plans to
enter State College at Raleigh.

two years old, the seedling is ready

shipped to distant points throughout
‘ i the state to be re-planted. Barring an

sease, or natural competition with
t other trees, the pine seedling will ore

: That’s the story in brief of one
■ phase of’forestry nursery work. While
the nurseryman works to produce
- more and better trees through modem
r methods, old mother nature goes
I quietly along carrying out the same
, work in less effective fashion,
i It’s something of a cycle: the ma
ture pine produces seed, the seed
; germinates and grows into a tiny
1 seedling, the seedling eventually be
comes a mature tree which begins to
. develop seed of its own, and the cycle
i is complete. So when somebody says
s “this forestry business goes around in
I circles,” they are right.

“The faculty may want to discuss a
plan whereby the boys and giris can
assist Miss Waff during their library
periods in the operation of the li
brary. Miss Waff has a tremendous
amount of work to do in keeping rec
ords, processing new books, and car
ing for the present collection. The
pupils could gain much in assisting
her in performing the services which
she so ably gives. It would be a rich
experience for them and would also
provide Miss Waff with more oppor
tunities to guide individual book se
lection and use.
“Your lilyary room is very attrac
tive and its importance to the boys
and girls is readily apparent. We are
looking forward to other visits to
your school. Perhaps, before too long
the new furniture will be installed.
Thank you again for the cordial wel
come we received in the Edenton Ele
mentary School.”
