Taking A Break The bell sounds and they’re off and running. Sounds like the start of the Kentucky Derby, but it’s not. It’s students leaving for a holiday. Among the official holidays, Thanksgiving was the first. School was dismissed for two days, giving everyone a four day weekend. Next was Christmas, a glorious week and three days out of school, then it’s back to the grind of homework. Second semester was short of holidays because of the many days missed for bad weather. Yet there were those unofficial holidays like Halloween. Halloween night almost everyone was a prankster, pulling jokes on friends or getting even with enemies. Students brightened each other’s day on Valentine’s Day by exchanging cards. And how could anyone forget the weekend. It’s not an official holiday, but it’s a welcome relief after a hard week. Last but not least, there was summer. Three months of no school to do what ever a heart desires. But it won’t last forever, because school will be just around the corner. Junior Miss Cross County Debbie Whitt braves the cold weather for the Christmas parade. Extremely surprised by his frightening visitor. Skipper Rose gives candy to a trick-or-treater. Holidays 21

It's a long, cold walk down the streets of Wynne for the band during the Christmas parade. “Deck the Halls” and Come All Ye Faithful” were two of the songs carolers from the Presbyterian Church sang throughout their neighborhood. In the holiday spirit too, Mac McClanahan decorates his home for Thanksgiving. Surprising her with a box of candy, Jeff Dangeau presents it to Libby Diebold on Valentine’s Day. 20 Holidays
