THE ZEBULON RECORD, ZEBULON, NORTH CAROLINA, FRIDAY, SEPTEMBER 16, 1938. SOCIETY MRS. THEO. B. DAVIS, Editor j Please send local or personal items to the RECORD shop by Tuesday night, if possible. j T*. . • . . . . . * * - FAMILIAR THINGS It is familiar things that rest the heart. Blue braided rugs, sunlit upon the floor, One pine, one star, the dusk has set apart, And laughter filtering through a neighbor’s door; A woodland path the feet have of ten followed, And twittering birds, and silver flowing brooks; A bowl of fruit, and plates, and cups smooth-hollowed, And kittens purring through the noon, and books; An old, old air upon a violin, The lovely birth and dying of the year, A house serene and orderly within, And someone speaking gentle words, and dear. —ELAINE V.

LIGHT IN THE SCHOOLHOUSE (An editorial in THE ROTARIAN Magazine) ‘Teacher’s working late tonight,” they used to say if they saw a light in the schoolhouse after, say 5 o’clock. But not now. More and more the ever-lighted schoolhouse is becoming a fact, as new com munities brighten to the realization that, as an after-hours’ center for adult cultural and social activities, it offers the finest opportunities. Folk schools of countries like Denmark, where grown-ups often continue their classroom education all through lfe, have won wide at tention. And an inspiring example of community education and neigh borliness is found in the little town of Solomon, Kansas. Solomon has only about 1.000 people. It has no picture show’s, no clubs; yet ap proxmately 5,000 folks live within eight miles, and for most of them the high-school building is a natur al focusing point for recreation, entertainment, self-improvement. The building is open five nights a week, except during Summer. There is no attempt to formalize the schools' open house. Half a doz en farm organizations hold their meetings in the schoolhouse. For the rest, people come, as to a re union, to meet friends, to play games, to take part in plays and concerts, or to listen to them, to hear lectures, to play bridge, table tennis, basketball. Townsmen eagerly give credit for the idea to a certain public-spirited educator w’ho, during his superintendency of the school, won for his plan the support of a progressive school board—and a place in the budget for lights, heat, and shower baths. No one, truth to tell, needed to be “sold” to the ever-lighted school house idea. All told, Solomon is a striking example of how a community may be vivifed by having a common fo cusing point for neighborly activi ties and interests. The school it- f*" f ||ii | Now Elmer thought that he could stand And have those daggers thrown At him, and trust the thrower’s hand To hurt no flesh or bone. But all at once his nerve gave way And Elmer left the place At such a speed that, if you saw, You'd think he ran a race. Where did he go? To where it seemed Os every place the best; And so he hid himself inside A lovely cedar chest self takes on neve life. There has been only one truancy in seven years. The school band of 100 pieces (the school’s total enroll ment is 150) has been heard in Kansas City, Missouri, and Chi cago. Every boy physically able plays in intramural sports. | The world spends billions on edu cation. I“> the United States par ents support a 10-hillion-dollar edu cational plant. The huge invest j ment in every community can and j should be made to yield a richer life for old and young alike. The | Ight in the schoolhouse may point the wav.
