Hereford Sale in Fredericksburg
On September 2">
I have u letter from Charlie
.Stone, Gillespie County Ajrent,
about a registered Hereford
Ra#ige Bull and Female Sale on
September 2"i at Fredericksburg.
This would be a good chance
to get some herd replacements
of good breeding animals. By
selling off your old her.I bull, you
might be able to buy a younger,
better blooded bull with very lit
tie difference in price.

What is school spirit? Is it
the noise made at a football
game? Does it have an effect
upon you and your school work ?
Is it your attitude toward your
school and its activities?
School spirit is hard for me to
explain It's -o important to us
a.- well a- t" our school. One
meaning of spirit is life. Did
you ever think of school spirit
as the life of your school? Well,
it is! The school is either dead
or alive depending upon us, the
students.
What would a football game be
j like if everyone just sat around
' without yelling or showing any
! signs of life. The team doesn't
! have to he winning for you to have
and shou school spirit. Ye.., it
helps - - - it helps a lot, but your
team needs the most help when it's
playing a hard clean game, but los-
ing. If a team does its best, it
will as long as the students Jet
them know they arc behind them,
there is no need to be ashamed of
•hem—w in or lose!
Students say, "Oh, this school is
so dead! I wish 1 could get away
from it." "It's so dull. I can't
even think." We forget its our
attitude that makes it that way. If
we don't show any interest, how
can we expect things to interest u ?
It's like a ball game. !f we go to
class with the attitule of winning,
lAost likely we will. We, the stu-
dents, with our teachers* help, can
make our class work interesting in-
stead of dull, if we go at it with
the right school spirit.
As a last thought, does our school
have school spirit ? Do we back
our team, win or lose? Do we tell
them about it, or just sil around
and Iio|m we win- Do wt | aci, our
teachers and go to the class romti
as well as the hali gain* with tin
spirit of winning? It u|> tin-
student*. of the school til deci-te
whether their school will be d<
iml dull, or 11 i\e school sj-ri' '
