Most Students Pass Exams; Council Presents Program By FANNIE L. MAY Ninety -eight per rent of the high school students at KHS passed their st-mcstcr exams successful ly, and what a relief it is. I know because I'm one of those 98 per cent. Now the seniors have one foot in college, the juniors one foot in the senior class, the sophomores one foot in the junior class, the freshmen one foot in the sopho more class and the eighth grade one foot in high school. As of Monday Jan. 21, we will have completed four and one half months of the nine months that we arc supposed to attend school and what a relief. The president, Henry B. Pickett I Jr. and vice-president, Fannie L. I May, of the KHS Student Council j produced an interesting program ! ' r"l?y in regular assembly. The I devotional portion and announce- i nicnts were carried out by Fannie L. May, and Henry B. Pickett Jr made this speech. "Ninety-nine" and one-half shouldn't do." "For the past three days we! have been taking semester exams i to determine our grade standards for the first half of our school I year, to determine whether or not J we have been grasping the things | that our teachcrs have been teach- 1 ing us for a period of one half of our school year. Some of us have) been playing, trying to fool the! teachers when we were only fool ing ourselves. Some of us made perfect scores on our exams, some of us were not as lucky, and came up with ! 70 or 80, but still happy because we had reached our goal, which I was to pass our examinations for I the first half of our school year. Perhaps some of us arc satis fied with the marks that we made although they were not the best that we could do. We shouldn't be satisfied with what we have done, I think that all of us could do bet ter. We do not all have the same amount of intelligence, and no one ! expects us to do as well as the I next person when they know that you arc not capable of doing so, but you can do your best. When you have done your best, and know that it is your best then you can say 'I have done my best ' Always remember that a quitter never wins and a winner never quits, always aim for the higher things in life and if you don't suc ceed try, try again "To you who haven't put every thing that you have in school ask yourselves, what good is it to spend ?II these long hours in school these precious years of our lives the best years of our lives, whil ing away our time doing nothing, while our mothers and fathers are doing more than their share to see that we get a chance to get an education and how do we repay them? r ' "We have it easy now; all wc have to do is to get up in the morning and come to school where we find it nice and comfortable We no longer have to go home in the cold to get our lunches; wc eat in the cafeteria with the mon ey supplied by our mothers and fathers. "Yes we have life at Its best but do wc appreciate it? No! We don t appreciate what our parents ?rt doing for us. We show it by the way we use our time at school vL^01! V* Wc "houldnt let ninety-ninc and one ,L *tr've ,or on* hundred. Wc have lots of evidence as to why we shouldn't lei ninety-nine ! ?nd one half do. Take some of the ?H?? you tee standing idle on street corners, when they should be in school They are lamenting their Aances to bccome a success in life because they aren't taking advantage of the greatest oppor tunity being offered and thatT, chance to get an 'education. We ?houldnt let ninety -nine and ooc i half do, strive for one hundred in everything. "Whatever we get nowadays, even though the opportunities are offered us, we have to take ad vantage of them. Yes we are blessed, blessed with opportunities, opportunities that will not just fall in our laps, the world owes us nothing, therefore it will not give us anything. "Whatever we get we'll have to suffer the consequences. God gave us all talent, talent that must be used to gain more talent. Don't bury your talent, use it, use it to your best advantage. We have reached the half way mark in school although maybe some of us didn't pass some of our exam inations wc arc being offered the opportunity. "Whether your capacity may be 70, 80, 50 or 60. don't let ninety nine and one-half do strive for one hundred.
