HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.

Hull SCHUUL NUlS.
The Jackson County High
School is holding up well, both
in regard to interest and attend
ance, despite adverse conditions.
1t is understood, however, that
some of the high school boys will
stop soon to take up farm work.
Spring fever and farm work may
cut into our numbers consider
ably during the remaining weeks.
Work during the past month
has been very good, as is shown
by the good grades made in the
monthly tests. which were held
last week. The following are
some of the best: Lille Brown
Gist, Rosa Gaines and Reba
Smith made as in first year
English. Freeman McGlasson
and Nola Quarles made AS in
physiology. In higher algebra
Freeman McGlasson made a.
The Wilsonian Literary Society
is doing good work, and is plann-
ING an extensive program for
commencement. 1t has not been
decided what the exact nature of
this program is to be. Some
members favor a play as the
principal feature. A joint de-
bate or an oratorical contest be-
tween the two divisions is also
being considered.
The athletic club was reorgan-
lied some time ago, and has
turned its energies from basket
ball to base ball. The team was
organized as fellows: Catcher,
Joe Spivey. pitcher, Joe Reeves,y
sub. Willis Fuqua, first baseman,
l.. L. Broome, second baseman,
John Landon Quarles, third |
basemad. Joe Myers, shortstop,
Lee Sadler Darwin, left field, |
Willie John Butler, centerfielder, |
Freeman McGlasson, rightfelder,
Gobel Brooks. With the above
team the Jackson County High
School is confident that it can
come off victor in a contest with
any team in the county, We
have tried to get a game with
several schools, but so far have
been unsuccessful. If any team
in the county is interested in a
game with us, write Willis Fuqua
manager. We are ready and
waiting to meet any and all teams
who care to face us.

SYDNEY, ANSTRALIA, May 1S-- (CorreSpondencc of The Associated PresS.l- Public opinion in Austral- ia as expressed by some of the news papers of Sydney and Melbourne is re- presented as opposing the idea thaS Australia wants to annex the formerly German islands of the South Pacific. They point out that there has been a misapprehension in Paris and else where as to the attitude of Austral- ians on this point. For example, the Melbourne Age says:
 An unhappy and untrue picture of Australia is being drawn by the Peace Conference We are represented as demanding German territory as pay ment for our services in the war. A wrong impression may very well be duo to misrepresentation of Austral- ian opinion. Mir. Hughes (Premier) appears to have given the unfortunate impression that Australia wants to an nex the Pacific islands. The only dat um he can have is the resolution pass.

 After her second attempt at self destruction the miners who had T great affection for the animal, decided that she found the work too hard for her and they arranged to have "Ne!- lie" transferred to a milk route.

SYNOPSIS

SYNOPSIS
Virginia West enters boarding
school against her will, and is
Snubbed by her schoolmatcs.
TUST after Virginia and her mother
- had arrived that afternoon, Kathleen,
who somehow always managed to dis
cover things without the help of any one
had heard that the Vests had money.
She had seen the large touring car drive
away and had determined while she was
dressing to cultivate the new girl:
Kathleen had always had plenty OF
money herself. but she nevertheless hkeu
others to have il. When she saw Nir-
ginia anchored to Miss Pattcn, she drew
away from the dark girl who held her
bv the arm and hurried across to
Virginia.
Virginia never forgot the impression
she had of Kathleen crossing the floor
toward her. Kathleen wore n white
flannel suit with huge black tie. Her
light brown hair, which she wore drawn
away from her face and cOiled In a
soft knot behind. curled around her face,
and her smile. that beautiful smile with
so little mirth behind it. was dazzling.
1t showed her strong white teeth and
broke up into little dimples under her
ewes and at the corners of her mouth.
Kathleen took Virginia immediately
under her wing. She arranged to sit
next TO her at the table. and she kept
every one talking so generally that at
the end of the meal Virginia had lost
nearly all of her first shyness. After
ward. Kathleen stole into Virginia s
room and sat on the bed talking while
Virginia undressed. Virginia had a
small room to herself at the end of the
corridor and the two girls We're alone.
Kathleen watched the younger girl
brush out her short. very dark hair. II
stood out all around her face and gave
her an elfish expression. Kathleen de-
cided that Virginia had enormous pos
siblities. Her passionate dark eyes
were beautiful and all she needed was
more assurance to bring her out.
There wasn't girl in Palmertowr
school who did not accept Virginia
after this. They followed in Kathleen s
footsteps and Virginia was crushed
for the strongest sorority there. Every
one knew that she would go into this
sorority to be with Kathleen, and sht
did. but it was on the night of the
initiation that she first saw Kathleen il
new light. For one thing, Kathleen
made no exception of Virginia in the
treatment accorded the freshmen during

these stunts. Virginia was thoroughly
hazcd and instead of the friend, the girl
whom Virginia had idealized, Kathleen
had become temporarily obsessed with
the one idea of putting Virginia through
the third degree. She showed no mercy,
and thousand little humiliations were
devised for Virginia mainly because she
was game and showed no disposition
to cringe and be afraid.
After it was all over, Kathleen came
up to Virginia in her old impetuous
way, just as though nothing had hap
pcned. and Virginia shrank little. Her
spirit was still sore at some of the
things she had suffered. small In
dignitics, and the knowledge that Kath
lcen had been responsible for them. 1t
was somehow impossible for Virginia to
treat them impersonally.
ITS all over now and you re one of
u.s. Kathleen said. jubilantly. as she
slipped her arm around Virginia S slim
waist.
Virginia tried to smile and Kathleen.
seeing the brave effort, turned to her
quickly.
YOU'RE not cherishing any feeling
against us. are you?' she exclaimed.
And then without waiting for Virginia
to speak. she went on quickly. "Why.
YOU couldn't do that! It's a tradition ;
we always make the girls go through
stunts to show their mettle. 1t makes
better sorority members of them.
There's nothing personal about it,
'Of course not, know that" Vir-
ginia returned, quickly.
They were all standing in little
group. and Hope Bennett. dark. un =
usual looking girl, called out suddenly
II was surprised when you suggested
that needle trick, Kathleen we haven t
tried that for long time. You were
great about it, Virginia no foolishness
about you"
But Virginia was remembering the
needle trick. and Kathleen's face, as she
had instigated and put it through. Vir-
ginia remembered with odd, naggina
clearness the fact that she was the only
girl who had gone through this stunt
1t might have been because she had
shown no fear, but there had been
something so hard about Kathleen's
face, something remorseless and cold
like n person who would torture fly
OF course this was foolishness and she
was being oversensitive, but the thought
persisted in her mind just the same.
