Opening of the Graded School*
'The school* of Mount Airy had •
moat auapicioua opening on Monday
September >. In the white achooia
820 pupil* were enrolled the flrat day,
an iacreaae of 30 over the opening last
year. This ia especially encouraging,
since there are fewer children than
there were a year ego.
Members of the school Board, the
ministers of the town, and many par
ents were present for the opening ex
erciaes. In compliance with the pro
clamation of Governor Bicltett, the
opening exercises were largely of a
patriotic nature. The boys and girl*
were urged to train and prepare them
selves for efficient service to their
community and their state.
A fine school spirit is manifested in
Mount Airy, and the fine attendance
at the opening of the nchool indicates
the beginning of a good year's work.
