Warsaw Business
Streets Have New
Look For Xmas
Warsaw's Main street, Railroad
Street, puts on a new look this
Christmas. Sponsored by the Jay
cees. The east side of Railroad
Street has new Christmas lighting
decorations as well as College St.
Members of the Jaycees sponsored
the project, solicited funds and
aided in putting up the lights. In
the past only small trees or shrub
bery have been placed about light
and telephone poles.' This year the
light streamers float across the
street from the Branch Bank cor
ner to the Depot. It is well worth
driving to Warsaw at night to see
the new lights and the many, many
attractive yard and home decora
tions. Particularly outstanding is
the outdoor Christmas tree on the
Methodist Church yard and the
usual decorations on the city hall
building.

Jaycees To Canvass
Town For Needy
The Kenansvllle Jaycees are
planning a door tsdoor canvass in
Kenansville Monday night to col
lect baskets for needy families.
The canvass will get underway
at 6:00 p.m. Jaycees say they pre
fer canned goods in the food line
for easy handling but will accept
anything. The Times would like to
suggest that if you have any old
clothing in good shape pass that
along too and no doubt there are
some needy families in this area
who would welcome some left over
toys. Search your pantry and attic
for anything that might be usable.

Students Moving Into
James Kenan High School is to
be occupied Friday morning for
the first time.
O. P. Johnson, Superintendent of
Duplin County Schools, said all
furniture and equipment are being
moved into the building and chil
dren will attend classes there on
Friday until dismissal for the
Christmas holidays.
James Kenan High School is the
last of the present high school con
solidation programs which have
been underway in Duplin for the
past four years.
Johnson points out, however,
that there is some talk now for the
consolidation of B. F. Grady, Chin
quapin and Beulaville high schools.
Nothing concrete has been done in
respect to this possibility.
The new high school will have a
student enrollment of about 350
with 19 teachers- J. P. Harmon, who
has been in Duplin County as prin
cipal of Warsaw schools for 19
years, is the new high school prin
cipal. The 18-room structure cost ap
proximately $300,000, and is bring
ing about a much more adequate
curriculum for students who form
erly have been attending Kenans
ville, Warsaw, ajid Magnolia high
schools.
Johnson said such courses as trig,
solid geometry, physics, chemistry
and a more varied commercial
course .-re being offered at James
Kenr-i in addition to the standard
subjects.
A full" equipped laboratory for
the teaching of science courses has
been installed at the school.
At the present, there is no shop
for vocational agriculture students.
The old shop at Warsaw will be
used until one is constructed at
James Kenan. The new school does
not have an auditorium or gymna
sium. Other than lacking in these
three departments, the school is
well equipped.
The new consolidated high school
iff named after James Kenan, who
was a general during the Revolu
tionary War and was a member of
the first Board of Trustees of the
University of North Carolina. He
is buried about three miles west
of Warsaw in Duplin County.
Coastal Construction Co, of Rose
Hill, was the general contractor; H.
C. Cooke, Calypso, electrical con
tractor; Kinston . Plumbing and
Heating, of Kinston, had the plumb

are Horace Shivar, Kivett Ivey,
McKinley Griffin, and Keith Sut

$845 in cash was raised for the
purpose of purchasing a fire fight
ing truck. In" addition, pledges
were made of $45 to be collected
later.
Plans are now to establish at least
hree fire trucks throughout the
Seven Springs Community, with
bounds being the school district.
Contracts are now being made to
secure at least one fire truck. Sev
