ENGLISH LANGUAGE In speaking of the many langu ages now in use, take a minute to think about when speech was prob ably unknown. From the necessity of communicating wants and thoughts to each other, arose cer tain sounds with certain meanings. That was the beginning of langu age. First arose the Aryan and Semitic languages and then, the modern languages. A new language arose as rapidly as people moved to a new country. The parent of the English language is the Anglo- Saxon. It was derived from the Germanic, Latin and Italian lan guages. It would be a difficult task for us to try to talk or write with out the English language. Sara Elsie Bunn. SCIENCE CLUB The Science Club met yesterday and had a very good program. The president called the club to order and the secretary read the num bers on the program.

The president asked was there a motion that we adjourn and there was, so we were dismissed. Homer Liles. FATHER-SON BANQUET The annual Future Farmer Ban quet will be held at the school on December 2.

POETRY A single definition of poetry which is universally accepted has perhaps never been written. Poetry has been defined in many ways. It is one of the fine arts, and may be defined as the representation of ideas in rhythmic form, with special reference to arousing emo tion. It is characterized by the use of images, expressed by rhythmi cal sound. Poetry is a poet’s way of expressing his thoughts, and trying to stir others as he has been stirred. Words are used not only for their meaning, but for their beauty. Poetry says a great deal in a few words. It can be dignified and formal, or it can be light and delicate. Poetry is pri marily a rhythmic creation, and it is something which asks to be heard. Virginia Bridgers. Y. T. H. F.

THANKSGIVING To celebrate their first success ful year in the new country, the Pilgrim Fathers with the Indians as guest of honor prepared an elab orate feast of game, wild fruits, corn bread and vegetables from their new gardens to celebrate the first Thanksgiving in October 1621. The feast lasted for three days. The following year was filled with misfortune and the colonis'ts had no autumn festival. They held a day of prayer which was followed by a long, refreshing rain and at the same time a ship was sighted with supplies and friends. So the governor appointed a day for pub lic thanksgiving. Although we read of feasting and fasting through the following years there are no records until ten years later in 1636. Then Ply mouth colony held a public thanks- I giving in the meeting house begin ning at half-past nine until twelve o’clock with Psalm singing, prayer and sermons. Jean Flowers.
