A Spirit of cooperation has prevail- ed throughout the year. The faculty, the school board, the pupils, and patrons, have helped this school to make progress in a hard year. Much needed repairs have been made and the school buildings are in good physical con- dition. We won a district championship in basketball and lost only one game in the area meet and that one to the winner of the meet. We won third place in track and have commanded respect of our opponents in all other athletic events. We have endeavored to keep a balance of the three phases of education; the spiritual, the physical, and the mental. The boys and girls have conducted themselves in such a manner as to reflect honor upon our school, and have made commendable progress in their subjects. Words cannot express my appreciation to the f acuity, the board, and the community for their sympathetic under- standing of School problems. Let us continue to work to- gether for the good of the children of Old Glory. H . A. Reynolds , Sup erintendent :tri':51'g!'g;..!fr'ihizw :; m1ngx5 mm; w- 'J: qummwvmmaa MV . WM It is with great pleasure that we dedicate this edition of The Pirate to our superintendent, Mr. H. A. Reynolds. His knowledge, kindness, and patience in the classroom have made us. value him as a teacher. His daily examples of good sportsmanship and fair play have made us love him as a coach and friend. He works untiringly for the welfare of our school and we students appreciate his efforts. We have learned much rrbm him; may all his efforts in cm behalf reach a bountiful harvest.
