Now on Hand.

We were Informed yesterday by
Judge A. +, Green, Ordinary Of
Lee county, that he was now ready
to turn over 800 in pension money
to all Confederate Veterans except
tho'e Of the new class added by the
legislature OF 1920. This does not
include all of the money due the
old pensioners, but it will help out.
The legislature last year added $25
year to the amount payable to The
old pensioners, besides adding a
new list of eligible ones. The re-
manning $25, as well MS the full
amount due the pensioners of the
new class, will be paid later, Judge
Greene said, but how much later
he was not in position to say.
Veterans Of the old class who are
entitled to pensions can get same
by calling on Judge Green at the
Court House.

During the play, Miss Fearless and
Company" which was first on the
programme, mirth was uncontrolled.
The old maidish old maid, charlc-
terized by Miss Beth Shackelford
aud the typical old country Miss,
characterized by Miss Grace An
leison, were rediculously funny,
The play was a grand success con-
sidering the small amount of time
and practice given to it.
The latter part Of the program
was devoted to " contest to deter
mine who would represent us in
expression az the district contest
Misses Beth Shack elford, Mildred
Powell aud Ruth Tarpley were the
contestants, the latter being the
winner. All three merit the con-
graduation and we feel proud Of
them.
Miss Matte Pearl Wallace, our
representative in music rendered.
her beautiful solo also.
Such success should encourage
Leesburg High School to show us
more of its capabilities and strive
to better compete with larger schools
of our district. Every child will at
some time be called upon to face an
audience and nothing can better
prepare him to answer this call than
beginning in youth to appear be-
fore his companions in this way.
We expect great-things OF Leesburg
people.
