HIGH SCHOOL.

High School takes a holiday on
Thanksgiving.
The driveways by the school were
dragged Monday morning. We GER
tainly wish they could be graveled.
Arbor day was observed last Fri
day. About sixty trees of different
kinds were planted, poplar, elm, ma
pie, box elder, sugar maple, sycamore
and a few other varieties. We had a
good time planting them and enjoyed
the program which followed. We are
indebted to Judge T. A. Lancaster
and Hon. E. W. Essary for the most
excellent talks made by them.
Tests are on this week and the
names of leaders will appear next.
One of the fastest and most scien-
tific games Of basketball was played
in the gym last Friday night. The
Humboldt boys seem to be a nice set
and made good impression on our
people. The score stood % to Ii in
favor Of the home team.
The smaller boys played a snappy
game with the City School Friday af-
ternoon.
On Thanksgiving there will be
game with Mckenzie. We expect this
to be another scientific game.

CROSS ROADS SCHOOL.

There never was a time in history
when so much was demanded of each
individual, and that demand will in
crease. Also the opportunity for ser
vice, for reward and for betterment Of
self. These have increased in recent
years; that is truly unprecedented,
and we have become aware of these
facts and that is the reason we are
striving to maintain good school in
our community.
Our enrolment increases every
week.
This is test week and every pupil
seems enthusiastic about making good
grades.
We expect to celebrate in inter-
esting but simple way the Both ami
versary OF the first Thanksgiving
day.
Misses Kate, Jennima and Kennedy
Laws, fromer pupil of our school;
and who now attend the Clarksburg
High School spent last week with
home folk here at Cross Roads.
Homer V. Pendegrass died at his
home near here last Friday morning
about $50 o'clock and his body was
inferred in Cross Roads cemetery Sat-
urday at 200 p. m, after funeral SER
, vices by Rev. I. M. Boyd, of Buena
Vista and short orations by Judges
w. H. Lancaster and w. F. Appleby
at Lexington. This school feels a
dee pconcern in the death of Mr..
Pendergrass, for it was here he re-
ceived his early education-yet we
are unable to pay the respected trib-
ute this noble, pure, exemplified life
deserves-bnt we can say that his life
in the home, in the school room, in
public life was ideal-enough so, is
this true, that every young American
would do well to follow his example.
The school has been invited to join
the Wildersville school in the celebra-
ton of Thanksgiving day at the Wild
ersville school building next Thurs
day at loo p. m.,-but rather guess
we shall decline.
Our Literary society meets every
Friday afternoon.

LON SCOTT WITH INSURGENTS.

Washington, d. c., Nov. 1S.--Party
regularity proved on all-compelling
motive to four of the Tennessee Re-
publicans in the house Thursday in
the vote as to whether the surtax
maximu mshould be fixed at a COM
promise of 40 per cent or the so per
cent carried in the senate bill.
Despite the fact that the Republi-
can organization in tn ehouse, almost
to a man of the conferees to establish
the rate at 40 per cent and this pro-
posal had the unqualified endorse
ment of President Harding, it failed
to win the vote of Representative Lon
A. Scott, of the Eighth district, who
voted with the other "insurgent" Re-
publicans and helped administer the
first decisive defeat experienced by
the Mondell machine" in months. In
doing so Congressman Scott express
ed the belief that he was voicing the
sentiment of the district and said he
could not bring himself to see il in
any other light than lifting the bur-
dens from the rich without equivalent
relief for the men of moderate in
comes.
Representatives Clouse, Brown.
Taylor and Reese voted with the or
ganization and while not authorizing
any statement indicated the belief
that since President Harding had seen
fit to express his convictions in so
forceful a manner the humble mem
bers of the party should lend him ey-
cry assistance at their command.
The defeat of the Republican organ
ization in the house was a source of
considerable satisfaction to the DEM
ocrats, particularly to Representa-
tive Finis ]. Garrett, acting leader for
the minority, who made one of the
forceful speeches on the Democratic
position. II is admitted that the vic
tory could not have been won but for
the assistance of he Tnsurgent" Re-
publicans, but it is felt that the coun-
try will view it as none the less a
Democratic victory, ''the end OF the
honeymoon was the way one of the
"insurgent" congressman expressed
it.

OF my dear grandmother, Mrs. Susie
Mullins, who departed this life Nay
26th, 1921:
Oh, Heaven seems more near now,
For our dear Grandmother there,
The crown of life is on her brow
And she is pure and fair.
Her presence here was oh. so sweet.
Till Jesus called her home;
But we again our dear grandmother
shall meet,
When here no more We roam.
We know that she will watch and
wait,
Till all the shadows flee.
Then she will meet US at the gate,
With Us once more to De.

When President Wilson delivered
his fateful war message to Congress
on April 2, 1917, which was followed
on the 9th Of April by Congress de-
claring a state Of war existed be-
tween the United States and the I'm
perial German government, his words
were applauded to the echo. When he
left Capitol Hill and returned to the
White House, sitting in the Cabinet
room, the applause of Congress and
the galleries still ringing in his ears,
he said: MY message to-day was a
message Of death for our young men.
Ho wstrange it seems to applaud
that That message was also a mes
sage of disability and premature
death for Woodrow Wilson.

and the ginners' report did the rest.
