IXniBSDAY NOV. 1941. THE NEWS-JOURNAL, BAEFORU, N. C FAflgWVR Q j Soc , - 1 rial Items - Personals - PHONE 3521 mm BRIEFS The school tonsilar clinic that was put on last Wednesday, Thursday and Friday undey the auspices of the county school health committee and with the help of the Red Cross, PTA’s, and Welfare Department was a tre mendous success. One hundred and one pair of tonsils were removed. At this writing ’ all patients are getting along splendidly^ in fact, some of them were back in school on Mon day. Drs. Hodgin, Bendu, and Murphy, and the staff of nurses and helpers deserve all of our thanks for the good work that was done. We wish to thank everyone who by their personal help, or through the lending of equipment, helped in any way to make the clinic a success. It was very fortunate indeed that it turned out that the Armory could be used. It was an ideal place to hold a clinic; it was light, airy, all well heated. We appreciate its use. Dr. Hodgin has promised that he will remove the tonsils of those who were turned down for various phy sical reasons at the clinic here at his clinic in Red Springs on nex!t Friday (the day after Thanksgiving). He will do this for the same price that he did the operation here. We think that this is a very fine, thing for him to do. We hope that everyone will iake advantage of his offer. Tuesday night a delegation of 14 or 15, composed of County Board of Education members and members of the District School Boards and prin cipals, attended the Southeastern Dis trict Meeting of the State School Board Association held in Fayette ville. Those attending heard Senator H. E. Stacey of Lumberton in an address on the “Foundations of the State and local School Boards” and Hon. C. A. Dees of Goldsboro, State prseident of the association. The meeting was held in the caffeteria of the Fayetteville high school. It has been announced that the lunch room in the Rockfish school has been opened. This lunch room is being operated under the auspices of W.P.A. L. C. Thornton, Bus Route Engineer for the State School Commission was to be in the county this week to aijMll^t as far as possible all bus rrates where there were any com plaints. Mrs. Pansy Fetzer, of the state staff of N.Y.A. was in town this week in reference to the N.Y.A. lunch room project that we have been try ing for so long to get started. We hope that we will soon get some re sults. Miss Murphy’s room in the Antioch school has put on a sales campaign, and raised enough money to buy a nice curtain for their cloak room. This will be a great improvement to the room and they will be proud of it. The white bus drivers of the coun ty have organized a Bus Drivers Club. Their aim is to improve and make more safe bus transportation in Hoke County. We think this is a very fine thing. Parents and everyone interest ed in the transportation and wel fare of our children should appreciate this fine spirit on the part of our drivers. Some of the school folks of the county attended a meeting held by the State Department of Education in Fayetteville yesterday to study and discuss the 12 year school system that is to be introduced for the first on a state wide basis next year. It should be a matter of pride to the citizens of Hoke County that you have had this system in force for the past 5 years, being one of the 6 units in the state to have had the 12 year system that long. Hoke is one of the 3 counties to have it, being second to New Hanover and ahead of Scot* land. Mrs. Z. G. Ray, primary teacher in the Rockfish School has been out sick for seeral days. It is hoped that she will soon be able to resume her duties. Katie Broadway, teacher in the Laure* colored school, was called hoir week on account of the de her mother. All of her fri- eius will sympathize with her in theri bereavement. The white schoolsjof the county are having a holiday today and to morrow. The colored and Indian schools are having a short day sche- dul^^ay and appropriate Thanks- givUUxercises.
