CLOSING EXERCISES LITTLE
MOUNTAIN HIGH SCHOOL

The closing exercises of the Little
Mountain high school were held on
Monday evening. Mr.. J. B. Derrick
of the trustees in his most excellent
speech stated that this had been the
banner year in the history of the
school. That the teachers and pupils
and trustees and patrons had all
worked harmoniously and well to-
gether during the year, and under the
able superintendency of Miss Lizzie
Neel with the faithful assistance OF
tall the loyal teachers the school
spirit had been kept we'll awake and
the work was done in most salts
factory manner That was good news
to all the friends of the school, but
it was not really news to those who
have kept in touch with this commu-
nifty, because the school spirit has al
ways been of the very best, and
where that condition exists the work
is obliged to be satisfactory:
There were ten members of the
tenth grade who finished the course
and were given diplomas. Seven
boys and three girls. The salutatory
was spoken by Slower Sloan and the
valedictory by Virgil Derrick. Miss
Neel paid a very high compliment to
Virgil Derrick and said that there
never had been a more studious or
better pupil in the school than he.
The address of the evening was
delivered by Dr. Geo. B. Cromer in
his usual happy and forceful style.
The, diplomas were presented by Dr..
P. E. Monroe of Summerland college
and he also presented the medal to
D. H. Wheeler for the best average
in the 7th grade. He is the son of
Mr.. and Mrs. Sam Wheeler. The
Aull essay medal was presented by
Col. E H. Aull, the winner being
Carl Wheeler, the son of Mr.. and
Mrs. C. E. Wheeler.
The exercises were largely attend
ed by the young and the old and
every one enjoyed the evening.
Mr.. Derrick of the trustees also
stated that the district had but re-
Gently voted another additional tax
for maintenance and the trustees
would be in even better condition tha
coming year to meet the expenses of
the school and pay the teachers bet
ter salaries.
The music has been in charge of
Miss Wessinger and the music recital
was on Friday evening preceding.
The sermon before the school was
preached on Sunday morning in the
Lutheran church by the Rev. H. j..
Black.

GRADUATING RECITAL
MISS MARY JONES

The great delight to those who were
present last Friday evening was to
realize the wonders that had been ac-
compished in the musical department
of our schools.
Twice each year Miss Burton has
given pupils recitals in order that the
pupils might gain confidence in them
selves and also that their parents
might see just what work has been
done by them.
But last Friday evening was diff
Frances Jones gave her graduating
recital. At half-past eight the hall
was filed with friends of Miss Jones
and with lovers of music, and never
in Newberry has there been such an
appreciative and eager audience as
that one.
The stage was particularly attrac-
tive in potted ferns with large silver
vases and jardinieres filled with hand
some Paul Neyron roses which added
great beauty to the scene.
The Glee Club was quite success,
and also a musical surprise to most
people, delighting the audience with
it's singing. Newberry is proud to
have such Glee Club. But of course
everyone present is congratulating
Miss Jones for the beautiful music
with which she charmed her audience
and the great ability and efficiency
with which she carried out her pro-
gram. Each number showed careful
study and application in her part as
a pupil as well as the painstaking and
praiseworthyseforts of NJ: =, Margaret
Burton as teacher. The many en-
cores and lovely flowers received by
Miss Jones proved what favorite
she is with lovers of music, and made
one realize what great promise she
has of a brilliant future in the musi-
cal world.

WORK COMMENCED ON
REPAIRING LEGION QUARTERS

Work has begun on repairing the
quarters of Post No. 2 of the Ameri-
can Legion. When it is completed, I
F.! dare say that this post will have one
of the best homes of any post it's size
(, in South Carolina.
Il The upper stery in the old court
house has been turned over. to the
American Legion, and permission has
been Granted to make some repairs in
it.
1t is the purpose of the legion to fit
up the two jury rooms for reading
! and writing rooms, and for games,
such as chess, checkers and cards. A
lavatory and shower bath will be in
stalled in the middle room. A floor
will be put down in the main hall, the
walls calcimized for holding the regu-
lar meetings of the post, athletic
sports such as volley ball and basket
ball, for giving entertainments, for,
holding social gatherings to which we
can invite our friends and relatives,
and for. other forms of amusement
sanctioned by the entertainment COM
mittee.
When the proposition of financing
the improvements desired came up be-
fore the post for discussion, it was
unanimously decided that contribu-
tions would not be solicited outside
the membership of the legion. When
subscriptions were called for from
the floor, the response was unanimous
every member present subscribed
to the fund. A committee was ap-
pointed to visit the members not at
the meeting, and the men seen so far
have responded almost to u man. The
committee now has about $1,000.00
subscribed. Included in this amount
are several contributions that came
unsolicited from citizens outside Of
the legion. These contributions are
appreciated all the more because Of
that fact.
In addition to the above the follow
ing donations have been received By
the post: ~
From the Newberry chapter, A. r.
c., two tables, a stove, and other FIX
lures in. the hall, and $4,000 in cash
to purchase papers and magazines for
the reading rooms; from the Rest
Room a stove for one of the reading
rooms; from the Newberry Lumber
company $500 ON our lumber bill.
Post No. "a now has $50 members.
Reckoning the other S posts in the
county with 100 members, this will
give Newberry county ESQ legion
aires. But there are still number
of former service men who should be
in the legion. The membership in
the United States now numbers over
one million five hundred thousands,
and is steadily growing every day.
May 1922 has been proclaimed as
the American Legion membership
"Push" throughout the nation. AL
though this post is not going to put on
an active campaign for new members,
it shall be glad to have all of the men
who are eligible to membership join
one of the posts in the county. Only
those are eligible to membership who
served honorably in the Army, Navy
or Marine Corps for any length Of
time between April 6, 1917, and
November ii, 1919.
The slogan Of the American Legion
is service-service to community,
state and country; service to human
ity. It is not military organizations,
is on-partisian and non-political.
Membership blanks may be obtain
ed from Hal Kohn, commander OF
Post No. "a.
