Green Forest Boys Story of the
 School Contest.

There was lots of people at the con- test at Harrison Saturday. The special train was loaded with people from Green Forest and every where.
 Keeter Burney went from Osage. He said he went so if his dad went plum crazy he would be there to help take care of him. Proof Burney was sure enough purity wild about the con test.
 I don't think Green Forest done so very well, only we got second in about everything and that was purity good. One thing the Green Forest boys and girls behaved themselves and that was more than some of the rest did. Them Euricky boys just called the umpire a liar and everything and wouldn't play fair tol. If I had dog that would bark at them Euricky guys I would beat the Houn out of it.
 Logan Stephenson is Green Forests most honored speaker and he won the prize believe but some guy blew a horn and skeered him and he forgot to finish his speech. I was sick to see Logan lose like that Airl Dickard would have won the waiting that's high jumping if he had the Green Forest pole. The old stick Harrison had wasn't any good. Airl give it up and didn't say word, not like them Flu ricky guys, fussing and fuming about everything.
 Harrison girls they won everything. Made me sorry to see them Euricky girls bawl cause they got beat by Green Forest girls. 1 think the Euricky girls were the best looking. Harrison girls wouldn't have won 1 am sure if it had been a beauty contest for they wasn't much better lockers than Belfonte. Green Forest girls were next to Eu- ricky.
 The excursion train carried four coaches but Green Forest had the most people. Berryville done very well not to have no school hardly. The boys and girls yelled and sung themselves hoarse going down but they didn't yell and sing so much coming home. Guess they didn't feel much like it.
