This is the time of year that the students are not seen very much unless you see them at home studying. The teachers give you a rough idea of what to expect, but there's still a lot of reviewing" to be done. There's a good side to the ques tion, too. It means that one semest er is gone, and that there's only one left. Among the patients at the Orthopedic Home, Ashevllle. is Pat Long, of Canton, a high school senior, in an iron lung, right.

Well, Shirley Mae Conatser had a slumber party down at her father's motor court Saturday night and found that she had only two beds and the seventeen girls. Julia Ann Calhoun brought her uke alona and If you happened to pass bryw"'lwrifllt,w nlght j you could hear the girls singing with that uke. It seems that Peggy Moody, Ann Plott, and Nancy Francis went to sleep, though, and those girls just don't know what they missed. Helen Garrett says that there was just too much to eat and that she just couldn't stop eating once she started. Everyone of the girls say that For a while, Coach Carleton Weatherby was thinking seriously about selling his ten-year-old hunt ing dog. Or even giving him away. But first he took him out one Saturday to give him a last chance. Duke took it, and now he's fixed for life. "You couldn't get that dog now for $1,000," Weatherby declared warmly yesterday. The big Lewellyn setter went into, a -point harUy-.aftet JJietwo had entered the field. Weatherby flushed the bird and When he was Varied into shallow water near a bank.

Tired, sleepy, and looking every bit of it, the girls go around school saying something about Saturday night, so they must have had fun. ed in after It. That was pretty good for an old dog, with the water washing over his back. But it wasn't unusual. Just part of the job. The dog had reached mid-stream in his pursuit of the dead bird when he suddenly froze .into a point, his head up and looking to ward th opposite bank,-andAhi; tail stiff and flat on the surface of the stream. The rushing waters carried the dog downstream, but still Duke held that point as Weatherby came charging over with his shotgun ready.

Haywood has a quota of $15,200 this year. We have never failed to meet our quota in previous years and we feel certain that the people of the county will again dig deep into their pockets and provide the funds necessary to carry on the cour ageous campaign against polio.

Systejn irst National Bank A 14-year-old boy, a student at Waynesvllle Junior High School had seen the dog's performance in this strange drama. He had become so excited over seeing it through that, when Weatherby reached the opposite shore, he found the boy there, too. The hoy's clothes were as dry as though he'd just gotten out of ted. Shivering in the chill wind, the coach asked: "How did you cross thai stream without getting wet?" "Well," the boy explained, "I just took off all my clothes, held them above my head and waded across." Weatherby was still thinking about the dog's unusual display of loyalty to his job when he reached UNUSUAl SAFETY PRECAUTIONS were taken as soldiers of the U.

He couldn't tell about It Just yrt. He stood there for a minute in thoughtful silence, and he rubbed the dog's head slowly.
