ADVANTAGES OF NINE
MONTHS SCHOOL
By Bruce Glazener
During the last session of our
state legislature, a bill was passed
extending the school year of all
public schools in North Carolina
to nine months. The more advan
ced schools of the state are already
running on a nine-month basis be
fore this bill was passed, but many
schools of the state including those
of Transylvania county only had
an eight-month school year. This
is the first year since the depres
sion days that the public schools
of Transylvania county have run
on a nine-month basis.
The value of the nine-month
school to the youth of this county
will mean more than dollars and
cents. To those entering college it
will mean a better background and
foundation upon which to build
for the future. To those that will
not enter college, the nine-month
school will give a much better
chance in life and more oppor
tunities for advancement.
Since the books in our public
schools are published to be taught
for nine months- an extra month
of schooling will make the comple
tion of the textbooks much easier
for the students and teachers. The
teachers will be benefited by an
extra month in a financial way.
They will receive wages for an
extra month in the school year
rather than eight months, as has
been previously experienced.
Nine months school will be
much more beneficial to those
just beginning their education
than to any others. By the time
they will have finished high school
they will have a year and a half
more schooling, gaining the extra
month each year, more than those
who have already finished school.
Certainly no one will object to
this educational blessing of our
county.

HERE AND THERE
We have a bit of advice for
Verena Lewis. She had better keep
her eye on Mr. Norton if she ex
pects to keep him. As he seems
to really enjoy himself when he’s
with that little blonde from Tenn.
Miss Erwin is still puzzled as
to the identity of Alonzo Siniard.
Maybe “Bullet” Brannon could
throw some light on the subject.
Frances W.’s heartthrob in Vir
ginia recently wrote her of his
being in an auto crash. My, what
these Brevard girls won’t drive
men to do!
Take a look at the senior class
and you'll find that the Marines
aren’t the only ones who can get
the “situation well in hand.”
Ah, such a life! Allan Eberle
has undertaken to cultivate a
moustache.
Jason 0. has that new goodnight
technique, “Stand by for action.”
Miss Powell’s pet phrase is
“plain as cornbread.” But she
couldn’t be referring to the names
on the history roll because they
are ever so queer. She still wants
to meet Happy Hollow and Luther
Toxaway.
Attention, sophomore girls! . . .
Keep your eyes on “Else” P. He’s
the forthcoming Rudolph Valen
tino.
Don't imagine it’ll take long for
those DeMolay boys to start sport
ing their block letters around B.
H. S. They say colorful things
catch the eye.
Dick Fenwicke surely likes the
ratios large. The other night it
was three to one, but “Ricardo”
says he doesn’t mind a little thing
like that.
comment Irom a senior who
comes to school three days late.
. . . It's amoosin’, but eonfoosin'.
Bob Kappers says he only talked
to the girl five minutes and he’s
already received three letters.
What a man!!!!
Two senior boys keep talking
like they’ve gone down for the
third time. Their favorite song
contains these words, “You went
away and my heart went with
you.”
If it happens before next week
I want you to know that I prefer
roses. If not, well, you’ll hear from
me again.
Yours truly,
FLASH.
i very t’ty HiVi-HON battles are taking the lives c!
La gallant boys lighting under the Stars and Strides.
Your dear ones—sms, husband, sweetheart, father,
brothers, relatives and friends—are, or soon may be,
engaged in those bloody battles where the scythe
of the Grim Reaper flashes in every volley of the guns.
The 3rd War Loan of 15 billion dollars must pay for
the equipment, ammunition and food our boys need
so desperately—and you must raise the money!
Buy at least one EXTRA $100 War Bond in Sep*
tember besides your regular bond purchases. Go
all-out with every dollar you can scrape up and
keep right on slapping every cent into the world's
safest investment—War Bonds!
Make the 3rd War Loan a quick success—back
up your soldier, sailor or marine ALL THE WAY!

Mailed Between Sept.

Christmas gifts may be mailed
by parcel post only between Sept.
15 and Oct. 15. After that date
such parcels may not be mailed
unless a written request from the
soldier for the article is presented
with each parcel. No soldier should
have to ask for a Christmas gift,

inches in length or 36 inches in
length and girth combined. It
should be marked, “Christmas par
cel,” so that it may be given

member of the armed forces by or i
in behalf of the same mailer.
Parcels must be wrapped well and
the cover should be such that it
can be opened readily for censor
