There is some chord even in the heart of solid stone, that may be made to vibrate sweetly in response to the impulse of those two friends that mean more to the life of every boy and girl than any other earthly gift that God can give to them. Human nature, in all of her wise provisions for the life of man. reserves a secret, secluded corner in the heart of the innocent child where lies an undying affection, an imperishable love for father and mother. But the tire of this tender affection of childhood too often is allowed to become overshadowed bv the sin of negligence and the selfish pleasures of the world. Ah! how hopelessly short we all fall of repaying the debt of love we owe to that mother who has nourished us from childhood, who has gladly given the pleasures, the hopes, the joys of her own life for our own well being, and who has offered so many midnight prayers and toiled so many weary days in our behalf, while we passed on with cruel heedlessness and indifference. There is nothing in life that costs so much as motherhood—no other lot that calls for so much patience, forbearance and self-sacrifice as that of a loving, steadfast, and faithful mother. Ah! too, how unpardonable great is the lack of respect and love that we show to father- that long-suffering, self-sacrificing father who is ever watchful of our welfare regardless of the interests of self, who remembers us when we have even forgotten ourselves, who takes loving heed of our health, our work, our aims, our plans, and who puts forth his first and his noblest efforts vo give us great opportunities in education, religion, society, and to give us an ele- vated position in life superior even to that of his own. It was this immeasurable failure of human beings to fulfil their duty to mother and father that inspired the Divine command: “Honor thy father and thy mother that thy days may be long on the land the Lord, thy God givetli thee.” Then it behooves us as bovs and girls, young men and young women, to ever hear in mind the sacred meaning of father and mother to our lives and to strive unceasingly, with our many superior opportunities, that they have given us, to accomplish something worth while that will bring honor and glory to their names. Then let us bless the name of Father In song ami story sweet : “Thank (iod for the name of Mother And write it at Ills feet. ('. It. II.. IT. Pane 6 III K l‘. l 7 CIIS ITK Vol. 3 School Committee F.

Through their progressive spirit there stands in Cary to-day a school among schools, whose worth and standing is recognized throughout the State. Not being contented with a new thirty-three room brick school building, they have within tin last year erected a new modern brick dormitory for the girls and have plans for a similar one for the boys. Like wise when called on for support in other lines they have come to our aid as far as possible, equipping all three athletic teams with uniforms and providing an out- door playground apparatus. In appreciation for these services and their support we deem it a pleasure to here- with present their pictures. VOL.

There have been times when we were tempted to throw up tin whole business of editing this Annual, but yet the still small voice kept speaking to us and so we have hung on to the job. The undertaking has caused us worry, and we have been haunted even in our sleep by the ghost of anxiety and fear lest when the time for weighing came we would be found wanting. N ight- mares have not been rare at all. and we owe a|Kilogies to our kind bed-fellows for the kicks and trouble we have given them. One of our regrets is that we did not have our pictures made at the opening of school, for then, possibly. Tyree's camera would not have been completely wrecked. Now, however, we find wrinkles in our faces and feel the first effects of old age. If you should ever come across us before a mirror picking the white hairs, please look on us in tenderness. Nevertheless, we take pleasure in presenting to you for your perusal, this third edition of the “Ohsite’ and relieving ourselves of tin responsibility (though the trouble may have just begun). This edition, as you will see, is similar to the preceding volumes, for no matter what one may do all annuals must to a certain degree he alike. Neither is it perfect—far from it—and yet we have absolutely no apologies to offer. We have done our best and if it is not what you expect attribute it to our inability and not to our negligence. We have been seriously handicapped bv a lack of space, and a lack of cooperation on the part of some students. No annual can he truly representative of all phaess of school life without the loyal aid and support of all the students, and in this, as a whole, they have failed. On the other hand, we desire to thank those who have been so ready and willing to aid in any way possible, in the publication of this book. Especially are our thanks due to K. L. Thompson, a student during the fall, and his sister, for the cartoons; and to our good friends, the business men, who have given us the practical aid which has made this publication possible. And so, fellow- students, remember them whenever you have a “jit to spend and give them the preference always; they are the best in their respective lines. We sometimes wonder if an annual is not a useless burden anyway, hut Page 10 Til K 1017 CIISITK Vol. 3 instantaneous with this thought there comes another. A .student goes through school but once and this period is often the happiest in that student’s life. Shall we then let him go out in the world with a possibility of never seeing his school or class-mates any more, and with nothing to recall these pleasant days hut a failing memory ' We believe not, and so we have tried to prepare this edition to fill this need as best we could with the limited means, where a stu- dent in later years may live the happy school days over again and look at those magnificent pictures, “when you and I were young. Finally, if we have said anything untrue or have offended anyone, please remember that the motive was the very best With the hope that this year's ‘‘C'hsite will portray school life here as it is and not as it should he; and at some future time will lead our students back into their yesterdays with pleasant memories, we send it forth with every good wish. If by it we may cause a deeper love and loyalty to spring up for our school, and, by showing its true merits, lead other students to this institution, we deem that our labor, mingled with pleasure and worry, lias been profitably spent; and so we now leave the book in your care, gentle reader.

I had an opportunity of visiting the countries that had been so long in a struggle and turmoil of war. While there I attended some of the world's greatest orchestras; also the most wonderful music recitals, given by the great- est musicians the world has ever known. The wonderful amusements did not make me think of spending the greater part of my life there, but 1 returned to Xew York in order to complete my music course. It was a bright spring April morning, and a soft breeze from the south was fanning my cheeks. The fragrance of the green blades of grass mingled with that of the blooming violets. The birds were living hither and thither, busily gathering food; but yet they were not too busy to express their jo for the beautiful morning. However, all these things were scarcely noticed b me, for 1 was in deep meditation. During the last few days I had experiecned a feeling altogether different from any other which I had ever had. I could not help but let my mind wander back over the past, especially the year 1917. As I was seated where I could obtain a favorable view of the arrival of the ships. 1 watched the passengers as they would come pouring out. Among the crowded throng that came pouring forth from one of the ships, I noticed a fair face that struck me as familiar, and after a second of thought, 1 recognized Alva Lawrence, an old Cary schoolmate of mine. I hurried to meet hei and after a very warm greeting, we came back to where I was before seated and sat down together. That day, if you had been near us, you could have heard the following conversation: Well, Alva, old girl, what have you been doing with yourself the last ten year' at least it seems that long since I have seen you. “I have been having some time. You remember after I linshed at Cary, I went to Meredith. Well, I stayed there two years after I finished but was offered a position as teacher in the Washington Conservatory. Of course, 1 accepted and would have been there yet, but I wanted to come to Xew York as 1 was offered a position as violinist in an orchestra here.

When I received my invitation, I accepted it immediately. There were twentv-two of us there. Yourself, Olive Kelley, Otho Edwards and Charles Howard were those not present.” “What was the reason that they were not there “Well, Otho had gone into business as a jeweler and couldn't leave his work at the time. Charles had been elected a delegate to the International Mis- sionary Convention. We couldn’t hear from Kelley. It was believed that he had married and gone West to live, but I have learned since that he followed up his education and after graduating from Wake Forest he went to Louis- ville, where he is now a student at the Seminary. However, the rest of us were there and enjoyed the occasion.” “What about Bertie Bryan and Bernice Goodwin ( You know how clumsy they were at old Cary.” “They are at last seniors at Meredith College. I heard that they were the stars of the class, they did their work so well. “Well, well; how wonderful.

What can you say about Joe Johnson, Lee Jacobs, and Ollie Carpenter “All three of these boys entered a mission school here in New York soon after leaving Cary.

He also continues to make speeches against woman suffrage, and so by that he still thinks that woman is not equal to man. “You have not mentioned Garland Cpchurch or ‘Doc Bedford.

In the first place we did not wish any of our books to be ruthlessly destroyed or cut up: and we knew that if the picture was printed that “Sweet Potato Satterwhite would cut out every picture that he came across. The other reason is that the picture was lost at the engraver's office before a cut was made and time would not permit a duplicate one to be made. However, you may be sure that Bertie was extremely cute, dressed in her bask- etball bloomers, just on the ix int of throwing a goal. Take our word for it that it was pretty. and thus we let you draw your own imaginary picture. LI. «Mjsil.)

After having all the rules explained a to the way in which tin boys and girls should he disciplined, or in other words that the boys could get to “chat” with their best girls only on special occasions such as society and class receptions, and that the boys would he allowed to go down the street only in emergency cases, we settled down to work. After getting our schedules arranged so as to avoid all conflicts, our studies were the next thing in order. In Latin we learned a mo, amas, aniat; in history about Alexander the Great “crying just because he could not find any more of the world to compter.” And in “math about making foreign money out of Tinted States money, collecting the interest on partial payments, and the difference between a noun and a name. The freshman year over, naturally we were glad to return for our second year. The same unsettled feeling which we had experienced the past year was with us no more. We had learned how to “chat” with a dormitory girl on the slv, and to cram for a test or else he sick some day when we had a diffi- cult lesson in Latin or mathematics. Our ailments even seemed so bad some- times that it was necessary to get a special permit to go to the drug store for a medicine (milk shake or chewing gum). As Sophomores we wen also con- fronted by Caesar and his vast armies. After many hard trials at the trans- lation, we found out that all Gaul was divided in three parts, and that (’aesar finally conquered it. Another puzzling proposition was the three theorems of multiplication in algebra, and how Mr. A. got more of Mr. B. s share than Mr. B. got of Mr. A.'s part; and how Charlemagne was able to rule so great an empire. Two years sped by and then we came back the following year Juniors, of course. We were wiser than ever before concerning the facts of the high, school life. We had several speeches from (’icero; factoring all kinds of terms in algebra; to prove that two triangles are equal if four sides of one are equal to the homologuous perpendiculars of a circle, in geometry; about woman suffrage in England during the reign of Queen Elizabeth; reading and telling all kinds of stories in English, such as “Bill” Shakespeare and Ed. A. Poe Page f 4 THE 1017 Cl I SITE Vol. 3 could write. The work was all hard and looked to us like foolishness, hut we managed to continue throughout the year and pass off the larger part of the work. Finally, however, after pulling and shoving we emerged into the arena for the last fight. Hurrah! Dignified Seniors at last! (but of course dignified in theory more than practice.) We entered into the work with a new realization of what we were here for. We have made a record in this Senior year of which we are justly proud. Our studies did not seem to worry our intellectual ability as before. We felt more settled and realized that we were nearing the goal towards which all students work, and so we just pushed onward. To-day we see some effect of this new spirit. Our class is composed of members that will make a success in any kind of occupation or profession. Some have bright futures as lawyers, some as doctors, some as professors, some as preachers, yes even preachers. Some great suffrage leaders and culinary experts are also expected to go out from this class. One member is a food specialist and experi- ments with tin different kinds of foods to determine their different character- istics. His tests have proven unsuccessful so far to lower the high cost of living. 11 is latest was in finding out that soja beans were not made to satisfy the human appetite. In literary work the membeis of the ’17 class have made a creditable show- ing. All the Triangular debaters were Seniors; five of the commencement de- baters will be Seniors; six members will l e commencement dcelaimers and re- citers. In athletics we have done equally as well: seven of the football men were members of our class; four of the ’varsity basketball team were Seniors and the class championship was won by the Senior class. In baseball, even though the team has not been definitely picked, our class is assured of having a good majority of the players. One class game has been played already and the Seniors came out with the big end of the score. As we glance back over the record that we have made during our four years in high school, we feel that we might have done more, but nevertheless we pulled through and as we leave our dear old “Alma Mater” we wish the re- maining classes the very best of success and hope that they will strive to surpass our achievements even as we have tried to surpass the preceding classes.

However, that year we were presented with a ladder of four rounds and it was left to be seen how we would mount that ladder. We returned in the fall to begin our second year’s work with renewed vigor, more determined than ever to surmount the difficulties that confronted us. Then being better acquainted with social life, we endeavored to give a reception under the name of Sophomores ere we donned the robes of Juniors, and enjoy the “wise foolishness' of our social life. Xow that our Junior year has come, we see ourselves in more correct pro- portions. Life has a more serious meaning and duty begins to encroach on pleas- ure. Our days of hard work were brightened by the Junior reception. Friday, February the second. This year we put aside the follies and have endeavored to prepare our- selves for the places we hope to till next year as Seniors who have privileges so envied by all. Thus we are gradually climbing the ladder and just one more step and we will have reached the coveted goal towards which every high school student strives.

The one we are entrusting with our name and honor: Though by Cicero you may be often daunted in the light. Never stay down but rise, nor rest till you have gained the height. In each step and move have something that will count. And the ladder will not break no matter how you mount. Sister Senior as we take the honor of tilling your place.

At that time the class numbered twenty-five, and with courage and grim determination we entered upon the stern realities of a high school course. All showed a lively spirit and were unruly freshmen; but yet this unruly spirit was only a sign of our class “pep ' Ye soon became acquainted with each other and began to form friendships that will endure for ever. When the call for athletics was sounded the members of our class responded nobly, and were represented in every phase of high school athletics. On the baseball team two were freshmen; on the girls’ basketball team four were fresh- men ; and we have also taken an active part in the tennis club. Our class also responded nobly to the social side of life. Besides attending various other receptions of the school, the freshmen and sophomores gave a joint reception which was enjoyed by all present. Our freshmen year, take it all in all, might be considered a hard one; but we stuck to it, for we were only looking forward to the time when we would become all-important sophomores and could do unto others as others had done unto us. On September, nineteen hundred and sixteen, we began the second year of our journey in search of the golden fleece of knowledge. We have striven hard to live up to our name, Sophomores, and are still striving to make a record of which we will be proud when our many days of high-school life have passed. This year we number thirty, and all have the nerve and courage that the over-ready Sophomores are expected to have. Our class still continues to show its athletic ability in baseball, basket-ball and tennis; and it is our hope that when we come back next year to assume the honor of Juniors, we can take the lead in all athletics. We have also not neglected the social side of life this year. Uniting with the Freshmen Class we were able to pull off one of the biggest social functions of the entire year. I A JE 6( TI1K 1917 ('I IS IT K Vol. 3 As a whole, each member has enjoyed his class-room work throughout the whole year. One of our chief pastimes, however, is in dealing with the Fresh- men and administering to them doses of “Sophomorine,” our special medicine for the pesterings of the newish. It is necessary that they have a large amount before they will l c able to hold down the record of Sophomores. The year is almost passed away and we have not allowed our Sophomore spirit to wane. We have tried, and I think, succeeded, in making our last days as jovial Sophomores the very best. We now look beyond and await with keen anticipation, the time when we take up the march as Juniors.

It was also thought this department by students who were oft' either partking of college life or else had encoun- tered the stern realities of life itself, that the literary value of the publication would he greatly increased and the interest more keen. Further yet, it was thought that by seeing the meritorious work of former students, it might he an incentive to present stu- dents to mount higher the ladder of knowledge and learning. It was our plan to have in this department one or two short letters to the class, some essays, short stories, poems and itossibly other articles. However, in this plan we have failed for two reasons, either sufficient without the other to kill the whole plan. First, when the different students were written to some made hearty responses and promised to contribute: but up till this last moment before going to press, only a few lK rsons have sent in anything at all. Possibly time just passed by so rapdily that the work just slipped from their minds, but anyway, we were disappointed by not receiving their articles. The second reason is. that owing to a change in our first plans the space was more limited than we had expected. Instead of a paper binding as we had at first planned, it was decided later to have a leather binding and so this necessarily greatly increased the cost of the volume and made the space more precious. Fiji- this reason, possibly, it is well that we did not have a better response this year. However, we are publishing the articles sent in in order to start a department of this kind, with tin hope that it may be a beginning of a | crniancnt one of this nature in the annuals which are to follow.

My dear Chsite People: I have learned with pleasure that you are working to issue the third volume of the Chsite. In this attempt 1 trust that you may be successful. I believe you will and I await the arrival of your publication to fulfil this belief. Naturally, we are looking for the best volume vet, and 1 trust that you may be able to achieve to such an end. In doing so, I hope that you can make last year's issue a stepping-stone to your ideal. J suspect you will encounter difficulties but ever let your perseverance triumph. If your work is hard you will appreciate your accomplishment all the more. On you involves the duty to picture your school in all its varied phases to a readable public. In doing this you must keep alert and try to paint your picture with just colors. Much depends upon the accomplishment of vour effort. Your school, through you, can either appeal to people or it can have the opposite effect. You should not be content, however, to merely please your readers, but you should exert your ability to satisfy your own selves. Let the best in you dominate and let your ideas Ik for supremacy. Give yourselves whole-hearted to your work, both for the school’s sake and for your own. Set a high aim and then if you can close the book with the consciousness of having done your best, I believe you will come near reaching it. Trusting that you may Ik very successful in this endeavor and assuring you of my best wishes, I am. Very sincerely yours, II. M. Rhodes.

Pack 72 I’ll K 11U7 (TIS IT E 9 •J Vo L The Stavation Cure “Starve a Fever; Stuff a Cold” Time Honored Adage Eustace Algernon Smith was his ill balanced name, llow lie got it, came by it. whereof 'twas born could be appreciated only by one having a sympathe- tic conception of the workings of the ambitious mother mind. Eustace Alger- non was entirely innocent. He only fell victim—as do many small boys—of a decree of a mother of just this type. It would require little further appreciation of human nature—the way things work—to know that Eustace Algernon was a typical boy, red-headed, freckled-faced, mischievous; more devoted to the joys of the street than to the keys of the piano; more inclined to the swimmin’ hole of the gang than to the porcelain tub of his palatial home—that he was alto- gether innocent of this significant nomenclature. One day Kustaee Algernon got sick. Fever, elicited from some neigh- boring mud-hole, betook him. Many watchful nights were spent at his beside by his parents and friends, and great consternation prevailed among the members of “the gang,v of which he was leader. Days passed. At last little Eustace Algernon began to rally, his greatest suffering all the while being his chafing under the “Starvation Cure and the seclusion from “the gang.” The direc- tions of the worthy physician were carried out by the mother with Teutonic thoroughness,—such thoroughness as was fostered bv heredity. Eustace Al- gernon’s condition remained practically unchanged. At length the mother began to break under the strain, until one day she was advised by the worthy doctor to get out, that she needed some fresh air and a change of scene; but to see that a close watch was kept over E. A. and that he be allowed to have no solid food. At the doctor's insistence, Mrs. Smith, the mother, yielded with parting instruc- tions to Saphronia, the trusted colored servant, as to the care of E. A., the worn-out mother left for a morning walk. While walking along Main Street, her feminine eye for a bargain was attracted by some baskets of strawberries, marked at the amazingly low price, ten cents per basket. On closer inspection she found that they were not of the quality that she at first supposed; but were some seconds. “Well,” she thought, “they are easily worth ten cents per basket.” She bought them, with instructions to the grocer that they he sent in time for dinner. Vol. :J CARY II Kill SCHOOL l u;k 7 Eustace Algernon heard the gate click, and with that boyish instinct knew that there was a delivery boy. II? was reassured when he soon heard steps at the back door. The conversation between Ace, the delivery boy, and Saphronia followed, as usual. “ ‘Good mawnin’,” Miss Saphronia, “Why wan't you at church las' night “Why wan't I at church last night!” repeated sensitive Saphronia. “You black rascal, I wus dab!” “Why didn't you see me all drest up in my new Kastuh dress wliut Missus Smith bawt fo' liuse’f and gi' to me! “Lawdv, Miss Saphronia, was dat von? I saw dat good lookin’ dame. 1—I—I didn't know yer!” “You impudent imp o’ Satan!” cried the irate Saphronia, advancing on him as she spoke. At this juncture, Ace sought safety in flight, closely pur- sued by the enraged Saphronia. Willie had listened intently to the whole conversation. Here was his opportunity, and he seized upon it. Rushing to the kitchen, his eves fell upon the luscious berries. To him they appeared as the persecuted Christians of Rome appeared to the hungry lions, magnified in size in ratio to tin period of his seclusion. Fearing Saphronia’s return, he rushed from tin kitchen to the barn with both baskets of the luscious berries. When Saphronia did return, weeping over her feelings which had been hurt almost beyond bearing, she failed to notice the missing fruit, and tin memory of her charge was drowned in the profusion of her tears. At length, Mrs. Smith returned. Finding her child absent, not only from his bed, but from the house, she became almost hysterical. Rushing to the kitchen, she found Saphronia still weeping, her face buried in her arms, with the dress she had given her only a few days before spread upon her lap, soaked with tears. “Saphronia,” she cried. “What has happened to my child!” “Oh! that rascal, how could lie have done it. I'll ketch him. I'll fix him yet!” moaned Saphronia, frightened out of her senses bv Mrs. Smith's sudden appearance. Excited by the commotion, Eustace Algernon emerged from the barn, his mouth, face, and his night-gown red with the juice of strawberries. Thinking it the blood of the murder she had already imagined, Mrs. Smith became frantic. P. (iK 7 1 TIIK 11)17 C1IS1TE Voi„ 3 “Oli! inv child, my child!' she shrieked as she frantically rushed to him. But here she saw the tell-tale baskets and stems. Dragging Eustace Algernon bodily to bed. and rushing to the 'phone, she excitedly told the doctor of the morn- ing's occurrence. Well, if that doesn't kill hint, nothing will, was the assuring consola- tion of the sympathetic man of medicine. Willie is still the leader of “the gang. most of the members of which are now at home on furlough from the army, his hardiness unimpaired. 11 is mother now has a deeper sympathy for children, though she still has only Eustace Algernon. One night, just after Eustace Algernon had bade his parents good night and had gone to bed in that same chamber of his childhood, mother and father sat for a while about the library table: mother busily crocheting, father reading the evening paper. “Ellie,” he said, “I notice here that our old friend Dr.--------is to lec- ture to-morrow night at the Woman's Club. His subject is “The Treatment of Fever.' A smile that only a mother could smile crept over Mrs. Smith's face; tears welled in her eyes. A snicker was heard from the adjoining room. (Or, a laugh like that of a child in its sleep, dreaming a happy dream, was heard from the adjoining room.) IIakky W. IIauois, .1it., ' 17 . CARY HICH SCHOOL I AUK 7.' VOL. The Value Of A Dream (Prize Wismxc Oration Commkxcemknt 1916.) • Ve are the lnusie makers and we are tin dreamers of dreams. Wandering by lone seabreakers or sitting by desolate streams: World movers and shapers on whom tin pale moon gleams. For we are the movers and sliaiiers of the world forever it seems. One man with a dream, at pleasure can go forth and conquer a crown: And one with a new song measure can trample a kingdom down.” Truly the poet was right when he said the above lines. We are all dreamers and it is the people who have dreams and visions that accomplish most; where there is no vision the people perish. Search the history of those who have accomplished most and done more for the world, and you will find that it will be the people who had dreams and visions. Had Florence Nightingale not had a dream, had she not worked to make it come true, we would not have had the nurses who are to-day indis- pensable. Had men not dreamed and had visions we would not have wireless telegraphy, the steamship, or any of the other wonderful inventions of to-day. But all of our dreamers are not of the past. We have dreamers of to-day. and to show the value of dreams let me cite you to an example of a poor boy who dreamed of making his name go down in history as the friend and helper of the working people. Thirty-five years ago this bov worked in his father's livery stables from morn till night, week in and week out. While there coming into contact with the laboring class of people. In had a dream; a dream of higher things. He was ambitious and wherever he worked he worked diligently and with the thought of higher things. He worked hard to bring his dream into reality, and he did. At a very young age he finished the high school and then left his home to attend college. He entered there and after four years of hard work he graduated with high honors. Realizing that this was not enough education to make his dream come true, he decided to take up the study of law and entered the university of his state. After two years there he finihscd with honors and then decided to return to his old home town and take up the practice of law. In this he soon became recognized as one of the most able lawyers in the state. Now he was nearing the first goal towards the realization of his Rui ; 70 Till-: li)17 (TISITK Vol. :) early dreams. He soon entered the field of politics and after due considera- tion he decided to run for the office of governor. He entered the race against six opponents. The votes were cast and it was found that this man and one other would have to run a second race, and in this second race this man was victorious, winning over his opponent by a large majority. Thus the livery stable hoy had had a dream and made it come true. While serving in the capacity of governor he proved that he had the ability, and was capable and worthy of the honor bestowed upon him by the people of his state. In many instances he proved his devotion to the working men, for he was always read and willing to help them. After two years he ran for re-election and was re-elected on the first ballot by a large majority. Then after serving as governor for two more years he decided to run for the United States Senate. lie entered the field against three opponents and fought a brave fight, but was defeated. But to such a man defeat only serves as a stepping-stone to higher things. It is not failure but low aim is crime. The inspired ones are few hence the emanation where and how he got his power we know not. He rose in shadow and he went in mist. We see him. we feel him. He came with Divine words upon his lips; he did his office, God about him; and he vanished God’s holy light between the world and him, leaving behind a memory half mortal and half myth. Tried by this standard where shall we find an example so impressive as this one whose career might be chanted by a Greek chorus as at once the prelude and the epilogue of the most imperial times. The great leaders of his party, the most accomplished and experienced men of his day, were made to stand aside, were sent to the rear whilst this fantastic figure was led by unseen hands to the front and given the reigns of power. It is immaterial, wholly immaterial, whether we are for him or against him. We all must give over and admire the qualities that make men great. During four years, carrying with it such responsibility as the State of South Carolina never witnessed before, he filled the space allotted to him in the eyes and actions of all mankind, is enough to say that he was inspired by a superhuman power, for nowhere else could he have acquired such wisdom and virtue.

From South Carolina sprang the founder of this—the most pure, kind, loving and patient of all women— Miss Lillian Killingsworth. Of all her work and pleas- ures she never forgot to spend a few moments before the close of each day with her Divine Father. Through her powerful influence was organized among the girls, a Young Woman's Christian Association. As yet it has not become a chartered organization as we hope it will later, but is is a means by which the girls are brought nearer together and in closer relationship with their Heavenly Father. Our work consists of daily prayer service, and a regular Y. W. C. A. meeting every Wednesday evening with a program prepared by the different girls. It is only another step towards that ideal education of the mind, body and soul; and we feel that it is doing a great work directly for the girls, and indirectly for all humanity. —President.

However, under Coach Stafford, the boys that participated in this sport showed the usual pep” that has been displayed in all other forms of athletics in Cary High School; and every opposing team that they played had noth- ing but the highest praise for the splen- did showing that they made the first year. Football is coining to be recognized as one of the best sports for the Ameri- can youth of today. It makes them alert, and develops robust bodies and thinking minds. Then, under capable coaches, it is not any more dangerous than the other forms of athletics that are played in our schools to-day. Considering all these ad- vantages that football offers to the Ameri- can school boys, there is no reason why it should not he a complete success in (’ary. Next year when you hear the coach's call for recruits, we feel sure that there will he plenty of volunteers and that C. II. S. will put out such a team as will bring the school in the forefront in this form of athletics as she now stands in the other forms. TAl. STAFFORD Foothai.i. Coach Schedule October 21.

'Phis is why the faculty and the school committee of Cary High School encourage all forms of clean ath- letics, and the students take so much in- terest in them. Basketball comes during the months of winter when almost everything is cold and covered with snow, and we cannot play football or baseball. Therefore bask- etball is one of the most important forms of athletics, for it gives exercise and amusement to the students when otherwise everything would be on the drag. The team this year played under great difficulties. To start, V. G. Cpchureh, one of the best of last year’s players, was out of the game, due to injuries sus- tained from playing football. When we had played only a few games, the man- ager, W. I Sauls, and a forward, (). R. Senter, two of our best players, left school. In spite of all these drawbacks, we had a schedule of ten games. Although tin record of the schedule will not hear publication, yet the boys always made things hot and interesting for the opponents even when they were defeated. It just seems as if they played in hard luck all the whole season. On .February 20 the team disbanded to take up the practice with the “horsehide.” The prospect for a winning team next year is now very bright since we are expecting most of the boys of this year’s team to return.

Indeed it is appropriately called the national game, for with the coining of spring and the crack of the bat against the horeshide, there comes into almost every boy a feeling of thrill and a longing to engage in this sport, that no other sport will excite. Thus it is at ('ary. Immediately after the close of the basketball season the call for baseball practice was sounded. Between twenty-five and thirty husky youths in answer to the call went out with a determination to make tin team. Although the team has been given the first elimination, the scrubs are still sticking and give the first team some hard fights, for they have not yet given out the hope of making the first team. Klbv King, an old experienced player, was elected captain in the spring to succeed Kelley, who was forced to resign on account of the Clisite work. I nder his coaching the team is fast rounding into shape, and with the first game pending only a few days off, they expect to make such a record as any team might be proud of. As we go to press the whole schedule has not been finally arranged, but we are publishing elsewhere a list of the games that in all probability will be played, and all are now looking forward to them with keen interest. I u;k 104 THE 1017 CIISITK ■ • Girls Basket Ball Team At flu- beginning of tin ses- sion. the girls, desiring to he represented in athletics as well as the hoys, met an I organized an athletic associ- ation with pearl Jones as president: Mae Pleasants, vice-president: Jcppie Rigs bee. secretary and treasurer. Heretofore the girls have taken quite an interest in ath- letics. hut this year they seemed to take even more in- terest than formerly, due to the more perfected organiza- tion and also because the girls in their light for woman suffrage want to show that they are equal to man in ev- erything. Basketball is the favorite game although some are even fond of baseball. Miss Killingsworth. our Lady Principal, coached the team in the fall and proved herself very efficient. Then it was that much interest was manifested. However, after Christmas she was taken ill and forced to leave her work, and since that time the girls have not taken as much inter- est as they did before. As yet no mutch games have been arranged, but if the association keeps up the pace that it has set we pridct for girls of Cary High School a brilliant career in athletics and that at no far off «late.

The rain and hitter cold weather threatened to break it up this year, but notwithstanding this it was largely attended by present and former students, from far and near. Upon the arrival of the guests, they were conducted to the auditorium of the school building, where, after a general social mix-up, the following inter- esting programme was rendered: Piano Solo................................

After all had gathered in the assembly hall, which was decorated in the societies’ colors, contests were engaged in and refreshments served. The evening closed with many happy recollections of the occasion. Paok 124 THE 1!H7 CHSITK Vol. 3 Junior Class Reception FEBRUARY 1917 Of course the Juniors, who have all but reached the stage when they can boast of being Seniors, could not this year fail to have a reception all of their own. The corresponding classes heretofore for two or three years have had such an occasion and so it was up to the class to equal or even surpass them. Then, too, it was the last possible chance for them to have a reception if they are expecting to put out an annual next year—the two do not go together (bv way of information). Anyway they gave a reception, which proved to he a delight and treat to all present. Besides the usual contests there were short speeches from many of the guests. However, the real treat of the reception besides the delicious re- freshments, was the solo by Mr. Tom Hargis. His melodious voice blended with the soft music from the piano and filled all with rapture and ecstasy. “Once upon a time,” as all such social functions must do, it came to a close. As the guests separated they took with them many happy thoughts which will follow them “happily ever afterwards ' Other Social Functions and Entertainments Several Suppers by the Domestic Science Department.

Freshman-Sophomore Reception FEBRUARY 16, 1917 Not to Ik? outdone by the other classes and by the classes of last year, the Sophomores lowered their “statubility” enough to cooperate with the freshmen in “pulling off” a swell reception. The guests who were composed chiefly of the Juniors and Seniors were first ushered into the assembly hall. After engaging in rice and apple con- tests, which drew much laughter, they were directed to the auditorium where a very new and original mock marriage of the Freshmen and Sophomore classes was solemnized. Cream was afterwards served at the marriage banquet. The other part of the program was concluded in the assembly hall. All left with the conviction that the fresh-sophs could truthfully boast of surpassing all previous classes in their reception. Reception in Honor of the Football Team MARCH 1, 1917 A11 occasion that brought genuine jov to every football player was the reception given by the sponsor. Miss Ruth Howie. Kach hoy was asked to invite a girl and so things were pleasant from the first. After engaging in conversa- tion and various contests, the most delicious refreshments imaginable were served. All left with the one feeling of pleasure that they had elected Miss Howie as their sponsor. Pack 12( THE 1! 17 ('I IS IT K VoL. Reception in Honor of the Basketball Team MARCH 14, 1917 An occasion that was as equally enjoyable to the basketball players as was Miss Howie's to the football boys, was the reception given by Miss Halsie Kanes, basketball team sponsor. It was very unique and thus more thoroughly enjoyed than it would otherwise have been. The happy recollection of the occasion will follow those present and assures Miss Kanes of another such office in the future. Lowell and Irving Societies’ Annual Reception MARCH 9, 1917 Equally important in the social life of the school as the boys’ societies reception, is the all-important event of the girls’ societies annual reception It took place this year in the school building, Friday night, March 9, 1917. The weather was ideal and a large number of the former students of the school as well as the present entire high school was present. The guests were first ushered into a class-room upstairs, where a genuine animated conversation followed. The punch bowl was kept open all the while and many there were that partook thereof. At 9:00 o’clock the girls were arranged in one end of the room, the boys in the other; and then the boys in turn were blindfolded and turned loose to catch their partner. After coupling in this manner all went downstairs where hot chocolate and pimento sandwiches were served to the satisfaction of all. The occasion was indeed a delightful one and all went away with even a deeper feeling for the girls than before. Society is a place in which we interchange life.—at least it ought to he: A place where I give you my thoughts, and you give me your thoughts: I give you my ex]K rience and you give me your experience; I give you something of my life, you give me something of your life. Vol. 3 CARY II Kill SCHOOL RaoK 127 OCR TKOIMIV This cup was won by (’ary High School in a contest for the best school exhibit on the occasion of Wake County Day during the State Fair at Raleigh, Wednesday, October 18,11)10. The cup was presented by the Raleigh Chamber of Commerce and was offered to the town in Wake County, outside of Raleigh making the best collective school exhibit in a grand parade through tin streets of the Capital City. Cary’s exhibit consisted of floats representing, first, the elementary school; second, the home economics department: third, the agricultural department of the farm life school; fourth, the music department. The various floats were con- structed by the pupils of the school under the direction of the teachers, the far- mers of the community furnishing the wagons and the teams. The floats were as follows: the one representing the elementary school con- Page 128 THE 1017 C11 SITE Vot • •) sisted of a minature playground equipment and school house upon a platform covered with sand; representing the farm life school, the float consisted of work benches at which boys in overalls were at work; for the home economics depart- ment a magnificent teapot deocratcd in the school colors from which a bevy of girls dressed in white caps and aprons distributed cookies to the spectators, adorned a wagon : the music float built in the shape of a diamond, was lined with cotton and was set off bv two young ladies, pupils of the music department, at- tractively dressed, and two tiny girls that represented fairies. One of the young ladies held a magnificent harp covered with gilt paper in gold, the harp having been constructed in the manual training department of the school. This is our first silver cup, but we hope to make it only the beginning of an annual trophy won by the merits of our school; and that we will soon have our library decorated with numerous prizes of this nature. Vol. 3 CARY IIICII SCHOOL Pack 120 I.II5KAHV AND KKADINC KtK M The history of our library is almost coincident with that of the school, for while the school was still a private institution with only a lew months of public school, a thirty dollar library was secured by means of state and county aid. Prom time to time new volumes have been added until now we have a collection of more than six hundred volumes. The reference libraries on Eng- lish, science and history are very good. The supply of fiction is supplemented quarterly by cases of books from the State Library Commission. Few high schools have a larger or better collection of papers and magazines than ours. Among them we mention the News and Observer, Raleigh Evening Times, Pro- gressive Fanner, Breeder's Gazette, Hoard's Dairyman, Everybody’s Poultry Magazine, Home Economics Journal, Current Events, Literary Digest, Current Opinion, Saturday Evening Post. North Carolina Education, Country Gentle- man, Collier’s, American Boy, Boy's Magazine, Reivow of Reviews, Ladies' Home Journal, Modern Priscilla, Mother's Magazine, Designer. Little Folks, McCall's, Everybody's. Geographic Magazine, World's Work, Outlook, State Journal, Metropolitan, Delineator, Illustrated World. Besides these papers we get the several college and high school publications of the state as well as a Vm.k 130 mi : 1917 (Tism : Vol. great miniber of bulletins. The students bv voluntary contributions pay for a number of the magazines. For two hours each day the library is open, under supervision, to the stu- dents and town people. The citizens use the books of fiction largely. Besides the novels the students use the reference books and magazines not only in pre- paring their class work, but the members of the four literary societies come weekly to the library for material on their programs. Package debate mate- rial on the live questions of to-day, containing the expressions of the leading thinkers on each subject, is regularly received for the society debates. One needs only to look in and see the students quietly and industriously working to Ik convinced that the library is one of the most interesting and help- ful parts of our school. In connection with the library and the local bank there was inaugurated this session a school savings bank where pupils, both large and small, might deposit weekly their pennies, dimes, quarters, etc. By this banking system the pupils get the much needed habit of thrift, and experience in banking. Miss Irma Kllis, our librarian, is the cashier of this bank and each Monday small tots may be seen running to her with their bank books to have their pennies recorded. The bank is proving up to the highest expectations of the backers of this movement, and it is hoped that other schools in the State may pattern after Cary's example in establishing such a bank: this being the first high school bank established in North Carolina. Vol. 3 OAKY HIGH S('II()()I Pack 131 Who’s Who in Cary UNCLE BOB HARRISON Uncle Boh is a favorite with all the hoys, and proves to be a great hindrance to ideal seif-government in the sense that he draws the boys down the street when they should be studying. Always kind, attentive to every boy. he gets around the store to wait on them with mar- velous rapidity and courtesy. Then when he is not engaged in his business, be- tween the puffs of his corn-cob pipe, he can tell the most untliought of exiieri ence or joke that is ]x ssible to imagine, in that short polite manner that is bound to draw a laugh. Ills favorite topic relates to the exi erience that he hail with girls when he was young. Honesty is his first policy and he would walk almost any distance to return a penny received through mistake. Cheer- fulness also characterizes him. and there is a smile always on his features or just under the surface. Only once in several years have we seen Uncle Bob bet up.” That was during the presidential election last fall when his favorite was defeated. However, that did not last long and did not seem to seriously defect him for life. We almost forgot to tell you that Unde Bob is a widower, and if you want to see the old-fashioned courtesy displayed, just follow one of the “pul- lets from the dormitory into tin store. He is so extremely polite that he often knocks his little hat off. which is sel- dom absent from the top of his head, in the excitement. It is sometimes a good while before he is able to find it. He always manages to get a few words in. however, before she leaves the store and politely tells her to come again.

AUSTIN ROGERS Austin is by far the most important person on the campus. Indeed, not only would receptions and other social func- tions fail utterly, but even the school could not run without him. With all bis dignity and poise of man- ner he condescends to smile on his luck- less inferiors, even though he be in a great hurry. Austin is at his best when a recital or lecture is to be given in the auditorium. You may see him appear at the door with a chair or some other object for an ex- cuse to go to the front of tin audience. He grandly marches to tin rostrum so that his blood-red sweater may be ob- served in ail its beauty. His mind is keenly attentive to the entertainment of whatever nature. Only once did he make the mistake of laugh- ing when the time was opportune for tears: but lie soon saw his mistake by glancing at Professor Dry. He applauds loudly and long and when an encore is desired Austin is with the crowd.

First, of being the lirst rural public high school established in all North Carolina, and. secondly, being rated as the tinest school of that class in the State. Such are the claims made, and the school delivers the goods. It is one of the two farm-life schools in Wake. For the past three yaers Mr. Charles .1.

(ARY FARM I.IFF SCHOOL PRO- GRESSIVE Mr. T. E. Browne, supervisor of agri- cultural education for the State, upon a visit yesterday to the farm life school at Cary found the general condition of the school very satisfactory. The boys in the agricultural class are busy with the construction of a modern iniultry house for the flock of pure bred Wyan- dott chickens just purchased. one of the attractive features of the farm is tin home orchard. Mr. Howard, the agricultural teacher, has an orchard which should be a valuable demonstra- tion for the community. He has a care- fully selected variety of peach, pear, ap- ple. plum, cherry and pecan trees as well as grape vines and berries. These trees and vines are carefully pruned by mem- bers of his agricultural class. He has unite a number of different varieties of clovers and small grain crops growing on plots for demonstration work with his classes. The boys are very much inter estcd in this outside work. CARY STPDENT TRIES TO SOLVE PROBLEM OF IIIOH LI VINO EXPENSE (Special t« Tin News and Observer. (’ary. March 10.- V. T. Shaw, a stu- dent of (’ary High School, who rooms over at the school farm, situated about a haif-milo from town, to look after the chickens, hogs and cows, last week start- ed to bacheloring it in order to reduce the high cost of living. Saturday afternoon as he was prepar- ing for his evening repast, he incidentally came across a large sack full of the brighest. cleanest-looking | eas imagin- able. However, before cooking he thought best to consult his trusted room-mate and counsellor. Mallie Penny. Now Penny, who took his meals in town .in company with the agricultural teacher, had the previous day cleaned out and sacked up a nice large bag of soja beans for seed purposes. Penny knew what they were, but upon being asked, replied earnestly: Shaw, let me tell you. those are a new kind of gar- den pens and have only been grown in the South two years. Professor Howard and Professor Dry have been living off them the whole winter, and they tell me that they are just simply line. Profes- sor Howard wants me to carry them down to Mr. Gray’s store to be retailed out. but you may have enough for sup- per if you will not tell anybody. Shaw, thinking that a bird in the hand was worth two in the hush, took out a large stew pan full, and at 6:30 p. m. put them on to boil. In the meantime Penny had invited a few friends in to witness the process. As the iK as hot up they began to boil, and boil they «lid. White foam be- gan to accumulate until it threatened to extinguish the fire itself. Shaw, think- ing that he had. through mistake, drop- ped a piece « f soap in the pan. took them off and examined them, but was unable to find any. He put only one cupful of |H as back, but to his amazement he soon had another panful, while the foam con- tinued to roll forth. He took them off occasionally to sample them, but s« tough were they that his teeth absolutely re- fused to scar them. The more he cook- ed the harder they got. Finally, in desperation at 10:30 when bis hunger would wait no longer. In took them «iff. determined to eat them wheth- er or not. He ate a few. but soon gave up the task as impossible. How- ever. thinking of his little pig. which was fond «if peas, he carried him some, think- ing that it would be a treat. The little pig smelled of them, gave Shaw a wink and returned to his bed of straw. Needless to say. Penny and his friends were in no shape to go to preaching tin following day. and Shaw was not favor- ably impressed with the new garden peas. Vo i.. 3 CAliV IIK1II SCHOOL I y ;k !:’ : North Carolina’s Part in the Civil War, As May Be Seen in the State Hall of History North Carolina played a part in that bitter struggle Between the States, known as the Civil War, of which every North Carolinian has a right to be proud; and that part is portrayed nowhere else so well as in the North Caro- lina Hall of History. There are numerous instances suggested there that testify to the patriotic stand taken by the State as a whole; and to the bold, fearless and spirited part played by the individual soldier as he sacrificed home and loved ones, starved and fearlessly performed his duties in the very gates of death, counting it a joy and high honor to die for his country and for the sake of what he believed to be right. To illustrate the patriotic spirit shown bv the North Carolina troops and officers, we have only to look at the most thrilling story of Colonel I. C. Avery. While leading a fiery charge against the Cnion troops he was pierced with a bullet from the enemy. He fell from his horse, and the horse being shot at the same time fell on him so that one side of his body was completely paralyzed. With one hand, however, he managed to pull a roll of confederate note paper and a short pencil from his pocket. As the breath was leaving his body he wrote with unsteady hand a message to his father on a piece of this paper. The message was this: ‘‘Tell my father that I died with my face to the enemy.'’ When the lifeless body of Colonel Avery was found on the battlefield, the piece of crumpled note paper with its message was found gripped firmly in his hand. It is now preserved in the Hall of History, and is treasured very highly by the State as “The message from the dead. This is only one incident that reveals the heroism and the inmost feeling of the North Carolina soldiers. Thousands of such incidents go to show how North Carolina poured freely of her best blood upon the cruel battlefields to support the cause she loved so well. It was Colonel Avery's troops that made tier sons hold the foremost part in the war. We see many of the old bullet-riven flags in the Hall of History that tell thrilling stories of the daring deeds of North Carolinians. Wo remember in particular the story of the flag of the thirtv-ninth regiment. This flag was made and donated to that regiment by the women of Asheville. This shows some- thing of the part that the patriotic women of the State were taking in its rights. This flag witnessed many fierce battles; and in one of these battles P.voi: i:5«; TMK 1!'1T (’ I IS IT K Y01 o • tho color bearer was shot from under it, but before it bad hardly fallen another North Carolinian had grasped it and carried it on. 'Phis instance was repeated several times and finally the flagstaff was shot from under it so that it could no longer be carried by the men. Another soldier seized it at once, waved it above his head, shouted and, taking a leather strop, tied it on a bit of fence in front of the lines where the enemy might see it still waving. We are told in another instance that when the llgastaff was shot from under our flag, another North Carolina soldier seized it, wrapped it about his body and shouting to his comrades rushed into the thickest of the fight. These and many other similar stories of our old Confederate flags only show more vividly the loving devotion that North Carolina's men paid their cause; and with what spirit they laid down their lives for its support. The few old veterans that survive now as witnesses of the terrors and tragedies of the Civil War are rapidly passing away. They present a pathetic scene as tliev visit the Hall of History and look with raptural emotions upon the flags that have always been so dear to them; and they behold the uniform and arms of that leader who led them through the thickest of the fight and whose memory still holds so reverent and so dear a place in their hearts. We see them breaking down in sobs and tears as they review the familiar scenes of that fierce and bitter struggle, and asking that their uniforms may be pre- served under their old flag as a remembrance of their part in the service rendered by the North Carolinians which caused it to be truthfully said of them: “First at Bethel, farthest to the front at Gettysburg, and last at Appo- mattox.” -C.

They got a pretty good school hear and is made out of brick and it hadn't got a single stove in it. The heat comes out of the floor and the walls and all you have to do to get a drink of water is to push down a little fountain trick and the water flies. I have got a right good boarding place. I have to walk but a little piece to the school building. It is bout as far as the pig pin from the house at home. I get mighty Hun- gary mornings before breakfast. They dont have breakfast till after daylight and most of the boys here dont get up but just in time for breakfast. M v school work is right much hard. I have learned right much already. You know I was not ever very much on English before but I have learnt it now. I take Latin Arithmetic history and English and spelling and a new something that the prof, calls Phisyoligic. It is not been invented long. It tells all about your stummick and what causes the stummick to ache but I could tell him that raw potatoes caused mine to ache. They don't study the old blue back spelling book up here. I like the teachers right much and the proffesseurs but they are behind the times on the books that they make us study for the dont use but two books hear that they use at “Pine Levell. Of course this is a new building though and they cannot get all the best things at first. I havent had to stay in a single time since I have been here this three weaks. You know Gary aint but just eight miles from Rallie and if you will send me some of my “cabbage” money I want to go over their sometime and it dont cost you but forty cents.

I didnt get the trunk scratched up very much and 1 hope that you wont be mad for I will explain how it is done when I see you. Some other boys had to dance and some had to sing. All the boys seem to think a lot of the “freshmen” for they is all the time paying special attenshun to them. I got ahead of some of the other boys today. They were planning to go snipe hunting next Monday and several of the hoys wanted to hold the sack but the older boys decided to let me hold it.
