Teachers Meet at
Chestnut Glade

w NOAAAbJ NeSNANA
Association carried out an interest
ing, helpful program at Chestnu
Glade High School last Saturday
The only thing lacking to make TIL
occasion complete was the absenct
Of so many Of the school teachers
some of whom were on the program
but had forgotten to notify Supt
Fuqua in advance that they woulG
not attend, thus giving time to sub
stitute. The Enterprise will sugges
here that in the future when pro
grammes are made out a substitute
be named for each a subject assign
ed.
The day was ideal and a large at.
tendance enjoyed the excellent pro
gram, both the parts rendered by the
teachers and the songs and readings
! by the boys and girls of the commu-
nifty. This part of the program was
arranged and carried out to a nicely
of Prof. Baron, principal Of Chest
nut Glade.
Mr.. Fuqua presided and the pro-
gram was opened by musical Sc
lection rendered by pretty Miss Lo-
rene Etheridge. Prof. W. W..
Chunn of the Dresden school con-
Quoted the devotional exercises,
reading I Corinthians 13. The well
come address was delivered by E.
/. Brundige, member of the Chest
nut Glade school board, and he
made us all feel that it was good to
be there, which, in fact, it was.
Young Brundige is one of the NOV

an especial interest for the success
Of the school that has attracted
statewide favor. In the absence of
Prof. /. G. Halter, Supt. Fuqua re-
sponded to the welcome address.

plans of the school board. Then
followed a musical number by Miss
Valda Strong, whose playing at the
piano was. heartily applauded. A

At this juncture, Mr.. Chunn, Of the
Dresden High School, arose and an
nounced that he was hungry and
wanted something to eat bad. For
his especial benefit. Prof. Baron
announced adjournment for one
hour. But before that hour was
concluded we found out that Chunn
was not the only hungry person on
the ground-Foster Fuqua, for in
stance!
Mr.. Baron Dixon, one of the
young men of the COM
nunity, favored the audience with
4 reading, and Master Guy Finch
