Public Debate and Ball Game

There will be public debate and
ball game at Maynard May 9th,
Great enthusiasm Is being manifest
ed concerning the inter.schoOl de-
bate to be held between Maynard
Academy an d Doniphan High
School.
We learn that a delegation num-
bering about fifty rooters in all, are
going to accompany the debaters
and ball team to Maynard. From
the reports that come to us in re
gard to the preparations made for
yelling and singing, we are conf
dent that both the debaters and ball
teams will receive plenty of support.
Late reports state that Donlphan has
a strong debating team and that
they are coming to Maynard with
the expectation of carrying away
the trophy; but the 0. M. o. debat-
ers are also strong and effective
speakers, and judging from the hard
work they are putting on their de-
bate. We are sure Maynard will
emerge from the battle with her
colors floating triumphantIy over
victories.
Since Maynard defeated Pocahon-
tas by the score of l6 to 5, Doni.
phan is not so confident of her vic
tory over the Maynard nine on the
base ball field. We hope to see a
large delegation from Randolph
county on May 9th. Come and
cheer your home town.
Admission 10 and Is cents.

Among the memories ot the PaS'
we see another, small with DARK
piercing eyes, singing very Loudly
as she makes her way to school,
She is very tlmid, as you very well
know, and scarcely ever says any
thing. This girl was born near
MAYNARD in 1894 and went to her
first school at that place, entering
MAYNARD Academy at the age OF SIX
In 1901 she lived in Doniphan, Mo-
From DonIphan she came to Poca'
bontas and entered Pocahontas
school at the age of eight. She won
the first prize for an essay in the
Arkansas Teachers Association at
Hot Springs in the year OF 1905
She cares more for Latin than any
other subject, for she likes to de-
cline the noun "Rex" which brings
to her golden memories This girl
we know as Eunice Blankenship.
Still another picture comes to us
of a brown-eyed, curly-haired girl
sitting away back in small country
school, with her hands in her curls,
trying to solve an arithmetic prob
lem. This beautiful little girl first
first opened her eyes near Ingram
in the year 1898. After spending
three years in country school, she,
with her parents, came to Pocahon-
tas and she was placed IN school
here. She was the representative
of our class when we finished the
Pocahontas Public School course IN

We, the members of the senior

place at the age of six, and in his
fourteenth year had finished the
high school course. His favorite
study, If he has any, is mathematics
but he is equally learned IN all lhlS
is Tell White.
At last we come to a very small
girl of seven years. 1t is a beautl-
full morning, but she is sad; for her
parents after consultation have de-
cided that it is best that she should
be sent to school. She was born at
Warm Springs in the year some

What Will YouHave
By
MAIZE EDRINGTON

"What will you haye?" quoth
G ID; Pay for 1t and take it, nothing
venture; nothing have. Thou shalt
be paid exactly for what thou hast
done; no more, no less" so writes
the preacher, lecturer, scholar, the
universally admired Emerson.
What will you have? 1t has
homely common sound. 1t brings
TO our minds the picture of the well
spread table at festival time when
friends and relatives are gathered
around to partake of the good things
prepared for their enjoyment; and
the host and hostess ask the guests,
''What will you have?" A better
picture, however, might be a great
hotel where meals are served on the
European plan. Make your choice
and pay for what you get.
Perhaps the great writer had
something of this sort in mind when
he wrote the above.
God has given us life and with it the
power to choose the things pertain
ing to life and living What will
you have? Loyalty, love, anil ition,
education and christianity are five
Of the most important features Of
