Each year my students sell maga- zines. We wanted a new athletic bus last year so with an ambitious spirit, we raised over $7000 and paid cash for it. Well, the 67 profits were spent for band uniforms and instruments. Yes, weve got a band we can be proud of. Not only students worked hard — even teachers worked and competed with each other. Mrs. Whitemire sure knows how to get behind us and give a push. Mr. Ward, our Curtis representative, called her the best sales chairman in North Carolina and we agree. We sold more than any other school in North Carolina last year and even more this year with 5000 subscrip- tions. We even made enough to buy blazers for the chorus. The new music director, Mr. Marion Smith, was in for a surprise with these “goings-on,” but he cer- tainly found a way to show his ap- preciation. He worked day and night with that band and chorus and dedi- cated the Christmas Cantata to the students. It was beautiful. Mr. Smith said he wanted the band and chorus to represent us well and to-make us proud of them. We are. Yes, these are several ways my stu- dents worked. That’s school spirit in action.
