IN MEMORIAN
Johnnie Nelson's Death MourRed By
Senior Class

We, the Senior Class of Noxubee
Ciunty Agricultural High School, in
order to show u regret for the loss
of our beloved class-mate and friend,
Johnnie Nelson, wish to publish this
article.
his death was such a complete
shock TO each one OF US that We could
hardly realize during the holidays
that ne was dead, hut now that we
are back TO school work again where
our associations with him were so
intimate. We find there's a vacancy
which cannot be filed.
Jhonnie's character was such that
we should all do well to strive to
follow him and use his life as a fine
example for ourselves. 1t has been
remarked by many that he was the
most mannerly boy We had in school
Everyone noticed hiS gentiemanly
characteristics, and, above all, he
always stood for what he believed
was right, regardless of everything
His morals were good and he was at
all times polite to teachers and pu-
pills. He was always willing and
ready to do anything for individu-
als,or for the school at large.
Johnnie was a very bright and
promising student, one that could be
relied upon, not only in performing
the smaller tasks, but the more diff
icult ones as well. He was n of
those who labored to make the min
strel on the night of his departure
from here, December %, a success.
He was so joyous and full OF
youthful freshness and vigor that
little would one have suspected such
an early death. The Christmas spirit
of JOY and happiness reigned supreme.
" in his heart as he left school t.
spend the holidays with his brother
His plans for hunting, etc. were per
feet it seemed, yet to this brave young
man life must quickly come an end
Memory of a life so dear and at
fectionate is sweet and should be al
incentive to those of us whose lives
are so full of opportunities, to grasl
each one readily and strive ever TO
the higher, more helpful and noble
things in life.

He just Went Ahead and Did

He said he could make a new pillow
beam
And he worked at it early and late,
While his friends all SMILED at his
idle dream
And ridiculed his foolish scheme.
While they pitied his woeful fate.
But he didn't see their ridicule
Or the smile their features hid,
So. he worked away upon the tool
Nor knew that it couldn't be done, the
fool,
So he lust went ahead and did.
Oh, the cities great he has made for us
This lad with his foolish schemes
And the lands of gold he's laid for us
And the wonderful music he's played
With his "conlan't-be-possible'
schemes.
-Bobin A. Walker.

YouCAN

To work at your best
You must be at your best
And the best is none too good
To he for the mar who would
Be at his best
For the interest
Of himself ard the multitude.
If you must confess
You find yourself less
Than your full capacity.
Don't blame your pedigree,
But start off today
In exactly the way
You know you ought to be.
Your past is r measure
OF possible failure.
Your future the range of success.
As long as a day you possess,
You still ear make good
With due promptitude,
If the will YOU really possess.-Pal

THE HAPPY MAN

Who bears in mind misfortune gone
Must live in fear Of more.
The happy man, whose heart is light,
Gives NO such shadow power.
He bears in mind no haunting past
To start his week on Monday;
No graves are written IN MS mind
To visit on q Sunday;
He lives his life by days, not years,
Each days a life complete.
Which every morning finds renewed
With temper calm and sweet.

Dear Girls and Boys and GroWn-Cps
and ln-Betweens:
When the holiday season comes
along authors become Il little holder,
you know, and creep out from their
caves or away from their pencils and
pens and typewriters and try to catch
glimpses Of some of their readers. It's
not possible for them to see them all.
But | have seen many of my readers
with my eyes shut. and at this time |
love to shut my eyes and think OF
those readers. | can see them in small
rooms and big rooms, rooms where
there are good old warm lamps by
which to read and rooms where cleo
trio lights shine down on the pages,
or gas light. And | see them reading
Of that best of all friends-Santa
Caus-and Of his dog, Boy OF the
North. and of Santa's magic telescope.
through which he can see the smiles of
his many friends when they open their
gifts on Christmas morning. see
them reading of old Mr.. Giant and
Witty Witch and the Fairy Wondrous
Secrets and the Dreamland King, Of
Gypsy Haze and Midgie Moon and the
good Old Man himself and Mr.. Sun.
And aS | can see them reading in all
these rooms all over the country | wish
| knew them all. For Id like to tell
them that they are really the creators
Of these stories, 1t is because they
like them, because they encourage and
enthuse and because | please them
that | want to 20 on and on making
hem better and better all the time.
When one Is not welcome in a house
II makes one feel i'll ut ease and IN
barrassed hut when one is cordially
greeted one feels so happy and is ut
ones best. So it is | give you OF my
best, my very best, because you have
given me of your cordiality, which
feel even when | can neither see 1t nor
hear it.
So AT this time when a New Year Is
beginning, | gould not resist writing
10 all Of you-every one of YOU.
To the boys and girls | have a few
little secrets 10 tell. Your same friends
will be coming TO YOU in the year to
come. Perky Pig aud Brother Bacon
are far too greedy, as you and | know,
