There was a cental sadness
among the pupils of the seventh
grade and 1 igh cht:oi last week
because of Miss AUrelia Mc-
Ktnzie, our bwljved history
teacher, heard a call that was
loulwr than ours, and left us to
start a new home ir. Ballanger.
As Texas is now 2000 teachers
short, we arc not surprised that
no teacher has been found. It
will be hard indeed to find one
who will do her work as well
and as faithful as Mrs. Webb
has
Just as we were beginning to
think we eouhl endure no more
of ih j w mdand sund last Thurs-
day afternoon. Miss Ainsworth
invited the school to assemble
for an entertaining program
rendered by pupils of grades V
and VI.
A worthy rival of Bud Fishw
has recently been found in our
midst in the person nf Wayne
1'ickey, who has returned to us
from Dallas. You should set
some of his cartoons in a little
paper he is getting out.
Sixty library [books were is-
sued last Thursday to pupils in
the grades. Some p: imary pu-
pils had to b«* turned away be-
cause the few volumes we have
for grades 1 and 'J, werejout.
Four pupils, all in grades 8
land 9, were ready for W. S. S
last week, and sixty fivn thrift
stamps were bought by the in
tire school.
