TRYON, N C., FRIDAY, OCT. 24, 1941
NAVY DAY, MONDAY,
OCTOBER 27th
Next Monday, October 27th, will
be Navy Day and in view of the
unsettled and dangerous condi
tions existing throughout the
world, a special effort will be
made this year to maintain and
increase the interest of all Ameri
cans in Our Navy.
It is hoped that all schools in
Polk County will mark the day
with the usual Salute to the Flag,
patriotic songs, and at least a
brief statement to the pupils of
the reasons for observing this
date. In our high schools, several
brief papers are being prepared
from the voluminous material sent
out by the Navy League from
Washington, which may be read in
school assemblies by selected stu
dents, and material for an intro
ductory statement by the school
principal or presiding officer also
has been provided. It is hoped
that every public high school in
the County will observe the day
with a special School Assembly
and it is suggested that if any of
them are not in session then, the
observance should not be omitted
but merely postponed to the first
available date.
The Commercial class at the
Trycn high school is typing the
above mentioned articles so that
each high school may have its
copies. The Superintendents of
the Polk County School District
and the Tryon-Saluda District are
giving their hearty cooperation to
this observance.
All citizens and all organiza
tions in the county, having Ameri
can flags, are urged to fly them
