Study of the metric system continued spo radically throughout tlie nine teenth century, and in 1896, the House of Representatives actually passed a bill adopt ing the metric system as the only legal system in the U.S. but it failed to become law. The twentieth century has brought the U.S. more and more into world affairs and the advocates of the metric system feel it has become a trade necessity. * * * * You can't beat this bro mide; “An honest man is the noblest work of God.” Thursday night, September 7, another sock-hop was held in the Central gym.

Grover News by Jackie Rountree Somebody supplicated. I can tell because the devil is on a rampage----he has chased me to and fro all week long. I regret to say he tagged me a time or two too. But, keep up, up, UP the supplication. The exercise is go^ for us. I heard over the radio one morning that Satan poisons pens and monitor’s minds. That’s rather alarming allit eration. How many did their home work? Rah! Rah! Rah! Ral ly! Rally!! Rally!!! Revive. Recover. Come together for a common purpose....to come in order to help. Unite. Sing ing is your homework this week. Sing these words to the tune of Jingle Bells. "Along the way we go--Rallying all the way. This is what we know; We'll rally every day. Rally bells will ring--Making spir its bright. What fun itis--To laugh and sing And rally day and night. Rally Day! Rally Day! Rallyalltheway. OWhat fun it is to have A RALLY every day.” Singing adds a lilt to rallying. The gang that will sing together is easier to bring together. L<ng and supplicate. I’ve been going around in Circles—First to The Morn ing Circle on Wednesday— Today to The Afternoon. We had a good time singing and marching to Zion. We missed Boots. She’s hostessing Ma ma Maude, Aunt Annie, and Sister Murrell for a few days. Lucille took off forthehills-- Blowing Rock, I think. We welcomed home Fannie who brought Sister MaeGastonand Mae’s grandson home with her; and to church Sunday. We asked if they’d been behaving themselves. Said they had to because they were out in the country with no way to get into mischief. Just sat on the porch and watched the traffic go by. Speaking of watching-— We’re all invited to Edith Morgan’s "Watch The Mid night Flower Bloom” Party. Two buds (two midnights) have blossomed and there’s still one bud waiting for some mid night to burst into bloom. We don’t know if it’s mid night or midday, but keep watching those DRY BONES with us. Watch the muscles and flesh form over the bones, and skin cover them. Watch them breathe and live; stand up and come together and at tach to each other as they used to be. Read Chapter 37: Ez ekiel. Hear us rattle and really rally. I’m running ahead in my sing ing homework. The Dixon Choir went to Gary and Mary Stewart’s for a Cook-Out... Eat -In Tuesday. Eating was followed up with singing and guitar playing. I carried the CFO music tape with me every where I went so all who would listen could hear me singing with 1200 more folks. Bess particularly enjoyed the solo ist from Roxboro. Sang my way through the hair-drying time. Then went to Frank and Margaret’s to see them and Pearl’s pretty furniture piec es all fixed up. Mike and Steve are both in Law School in Ala bama. Jennyheardmetellher mother 1 going to The Baptist Church Sunday Night. She be gan to say she wantal to goto The Baptist Church. So we dashed Laura home, and Jenny and I went to The liaptist Church. She tod been to a song service. This was her first church service. She announc ed to Granny and all all during the message ttot she wanted to sing, "Jesus Loves Me, Iss I Know.” Laura and I hadal- ready been through all the verses and choruses of“This Little Light of Mine.” En joyed the Gospel Singing at Holly Grove Saturday Night. Brenda Neal lad a sunburned back from singing "HoldThat Tiger”.. So, wtotwithClrcle singing two times, and singing solos in tliree of ttie Sunday School classes, I’ve really rallied in joyful noise making. We didn’t sing at Tlie King City Grove Neighborhood Scout Meeting Thursday Night, but we tod a good rally otherwise. Mary Ann Testea delighted us with her display of hand crafts. She las recently come to K. M. from Indianapolis. She invited us all to her residence to learn how to make some of Uie items. Let me warn you- — Don’t eat the muffin! It’s a bird nest. Mushrooms don't have to be mushy. When is a thimble? When it’s a flower basket. Let your clothes pin be a drummer boy. See how to gatlier ye rosebuds while they are still a loaf of bread. We hope to get the Grover Troops underway within the next tew days. All you Juniors and Brownies get to rallying. Going back to Labor Day I read in a little booklet by E.W. Kenyon the following on LOYALTY....Everyone who employs heip places loyalty above almost any other trait in his help. We need skilled mechanics. We need skilled workmen in every depart ment. Regardless of tlieir skill, if they are disloyal, they hinder production. They hin der efficiency, they hinder the growth of the business. The new class consciousness ttot has been developed in the last few years along political lines has been of great injury to our nation. Wliat we need is old- fashioned loyalty to the man or the company for whom weare working. The spirit of loyalty gives a sense of security to tlie firm. It is a guarantee of a higher grade pnxiuction, of a higher quality of the thingpro- duced. It guarantees perman ency and safety in investment. No one has a right to draw a salary from a firm if he will not be loyal to the firm. If one cannot be loyal, he should find another position. Tlie first thing ttot we expect in a man, after efficiency i n his trade, is loyalty to the company. It should be taught in our schools and in our homes that we are not rendering to the firm or company our best until we give our heart's loyalty in our ser vice Let’s keep our LOYALTY really rallied. It’s still September. Still supplicate. In stillness and supplication there is strength and sublimity. The Mirror can be purchased at Hardin’s Grocery, Renn’s Cafe and Sliorty's Citgo. GOP Candidate Jim Holshouser, Republican candidate for Governor, was in Shelby Monday morning to talk with newspaper reporters, on his way to Charlotte for some campaigning. Holshouser stop ped to talk with people on the street. He was dressed in shirtsleeves and tie, and appeared very casual as he talked about the campaign. He was extremely op timistic, and said he would be back in the county and in Kings Mountain before the election in November. He added ttot this is one of the key counties in the campaign.
