lhapel Program On Monday Not. IK
This week be lag Educational week
our chapel programs are varied each
t!?y.
Today was Mr. Hopkins' chapel day
so he had his brother, Rev. J. S. Hop
kins, as speaker tor the occasion. Pa
triotic songs were sung.
Rev. Hopkins gare a very interest
lLt, and inspirational talk on "The
Oood Citizen." In this he told manv
ways that one can be a good citizen.
Some of these are to have the spirit
of cooperation, love (or country, see
the good in the state, be unselfish
and sportsmanlike, be tolerant, and
be of service.
In speaking of cooperation he
showed the necessity of working to
gether in school-life. The Individual
who works for his own honor and
not the betterment cf his school does
not have the spirit of cooperation,
lie gave some htumorous illustrations
to bring out this point One was
cbout a young preacher who was
married and had to go the next day to
fill his appointment He had some
trousers that needed to be hemmed.
He asked his mother, wife, and sister
tc do this for him but all refused.
Later, however, each of them thought
of the matter again and decided to
fix them for him. His mother first
went to the machine, cut the material
0:14 hemmed them up, then the wife
and next the sister. Thus, when the
?preacher dressed to -go to- his church
he found his pants abou|t four Inches
too short. This illustration shows
that they were working separately
and not through the spirit of cooper
ation.
Love for country starts in the
school life. It a person lores his
s"hool, his community and friends lis
vill love his country too. Stonewall
Jackson loved his country better than
he did himself. The person who sac
rificed his life at the time of the
building of the Panama Canal loved
the cause for which they were work
ing 'letter than his own life.
When people work for the best of
things they become better citizens.
They wilt look for-the good-ttr-the
s'ate instead of finding fault
A good citizen is nnselfish and a
good sportsman. He is tolerant in
all his deeds. He believes in the
rule of the majority when they are
"right, instead of trying To "have ev
erything run by his own selfish mo
tive.
Service is the greatest thing in the
life of a good citizen. When he is
willing to be of service to his coun
try and his God he is then a citizen
like the world needs. ? life always
of service is the life that coifnta
much In the work that Is being done.
Everyone enjoyed this splendid
message and was greatly benefitted
by. it

Qttlte a number of boys are inter
ested la "Lespedeta" as a project tor

The School Opportunity Day
Tuesday morning November, 12th,
an eirfoyahur program wm rtTOTgTecT
in chapel. The program was planned
by Mr. John J. Wolfe, the agricultujr
R, instructor of Edward Best High
School.
The program began by praying "The
Lords Prayer". After prayer there
were announcements and business.
.Then Mr. Wolfe made a very Inter
esting talk on "The School Opportun
ity Day." He made it very clear that
vocational work is very important in
order that the farmers of Franklin
County can make a success in their
work. The farmers of Franklin Coun
ty can be just as successfpl in farm
ing as the farmers that we read about.
The grasping of opportunities seem
To be a greaTlafilf of all of us. We
jest let opportlenities slide by. There
are millions of people that would be
glad of the opportunities that we let
go by and do not grasp. Mr. Wolfe
gave a very interesting illustration
aTibut "helping load s truck brdbugh
nigts and didn't eat any. Soon a boy
came around, selling doughnuts at
36c a pound. He let the opportunity
go by. He could have gotten full
plenty of doukhnuts when he was
helping load, but let the opportunity
pass. Just so do we let opportuni
ties pass.
There was another illustration giv
en about the optimist and the pessi
mist. The optimist sees the dough
nut and the pessimist sees the hole,
"his illustration was given to show
how some people look on the bright
side of life and some look on the
dark side.
The third illustration was an ex
perience to show what a person can
do if he will. The first year he was
at Edward Best High School he took
a group of girls and trained them in
Basket Ball. The second year they
had Improved and the third year they
went out against the state in the
track meet.
This was a very interesting talk.
Chapel Exercises For Weuagsday
On Wednesday, Nor. 13 of Educa
tion Week Miss Upchurch had charge
of the chapel exercise. As the

Miss Upchurch introduced the

years ago. The teachers In the dis
trict were fifteen then while we haye
twenty-fire nose The average salary
then was from twenty to thirty dol
lars, while the average now is about
$90.00. The price Is about three times
as much now as then. This can eas
ily be accounted for by' including the
buildings, books, desks, teachers, etc.
The courses have been doi^bled and
busses have been added. He stressed
the point that we should know all
about our school, come to It regular
ly and boost It
