THAT 5PRING, JUST BEFORE WE GAVE THE SENIORS A BANQUET, WE GAVE A PLAY, called Aron Slick from Pumpkin Crick , which we think EVERYONE ENJOYED. THEN CAME THE BANQUET, IN MARCH. WE HAD A VERY PRETTY NIGHT FOR IT. LATER ON, WE WENT BACK to V.F.W. Lake for another weiner roast and went on to Burlington for the show. After school closed, another of our band-Clara Belle Anderson, joined the band of matrimony. This year, we have a new student, Jack Williams, for¬ merly of Fayetteville. However, we have lost a few mem¬ bers. Elizabeth White and Aron Wilson are working in Burlington. We have several new teachers,who are: Mrs Wall, our science teacherJMr. Muss,Agriculture teacher, Miss Cook, home economics teacher; Mr. Arrowood,who is principal.
