Windsor School Closes
Successful Session
The graduating exercises of the
\\ indsor High School were held May
I:sth and 14th anl brought to a fit
ting close a very successful y.-ar of
one of the most progressive -rtu> ■'
s> stents in the state.
The Itarca laureate sermon was .le
livered by the Rev. I>r W I». )!«>
of Otapcl llill. Tlie "I'ar-on" ;irra"li
ed one of the most powerful ,-ermoi.s
ever heard in this vicinity. Ilis taik
was redolent with philo«o|>- ical a-'
vice and not only the graduates but
also every memlier of the entire au
dience was deeply moved b> his pro
found words.
Judge Francis D. Winston gave the
iterary aihlress. The topic was "W.KKI
row Wilson" ami never in lli J n« ! «.iy
of the townsfolk did the "tlovem-r""
acquit himself better The inspiring
topic seemed to lend itself with all
its inspiration to the speaker, makinv
him even more eloafuent than is his
wont. The citizenry of llertie were
loud in theii pruises acclaiming it an
a masterpiece worthy to be place.l
with the nation- best orations
The diploma- were presented in a
unique way, tlie mothers of the grad
uates having the honor of giving the
sheepskin. Those graduating were
Misses Mary Ktheridge Rhea, Ku~enia
Sessoms, Ksther Wake Galling, Mar>
Rhodes Copeland, EUtsie Mizell. Flora
Mitchell anal Kliiabeth Botnl
Anang the remarkable achieve
ment.- of the year a few tand out
prominently. A class in Public Health

health officer, I>r J. K Smith. A class
in Citixenship was conducted by Mr
T. C. Taylor, Superintendent of the
Windsor Public School* This clas_.
filled a long felt want in the curri
culum. Some of the activities of the
class were as follows: A town clean
up was conducted with otrvioady bene
ficial results. A violin concert was
sponsored and Miss Km die Rose
Knox, North Carolina's most noted
violinist was secured as soloist The
class also had A. W. Mclean. J. W.
Bailey and I. M Meekins to deliver
addresses Thus the school has be
come a real community center, the
ideal toward which all educator*
strive The people have been given an
opportunity to hear the best speakers,
musicians, and. thru the medium of
readings by students and lectin el* b\
authorities, have become acquainted
with the Shakesperian Tragedies
So great has been the interest h
this class in Citizenship that mquirie
-have been received frmrn all parts of
the state as to the method of CM
dueting U. Much of the success of the
■rheol and iu activities has baen d»
to the energy of the Superintendent
