The Junior reception to the Seniors
at the home of Miss Luda Reynolds
was greatly enjoyed by these two class
es, their teachers and friends. Quite
Il nice program was rendered, after
which there was fortune telling. De-
licious refreshments Of punch, brick
cream and cake were served. The
gracious hospitality Of Miss Reynolds
and her untiring efforts for the sue
cess of the evening were truly ap
preciated. She was assisted by Mrs,
Lamar Atkins.
Cutie a large congregation enjoyed
tie splendid sermon on Sunday morn
ing by Rev. W. H. Jordan, of Winn,
field.
On Monday evening Mr.. and Mrs.
". D. Golf entertained the Senior
class in honor of ther son, Ralph. The
steady downpour Of rain prevented a
number of the guests from being pres
ent, but those fortunate enough to be
there had a most enjoyable evening
Progressive rook was the game Of the
erening. U. G. Brunston having the
highest score won the box of candy
while the consolation, a lovely bou-
quet of sweet peas went to Ruth Muir:
ply. The refreshments consisted OF
salad, olives, pickles, crackers and
frappe.
We hope all will remember Mrs
! Howell's recital on Thursday evening
and the graduation exercises on Fri
day evening and attend both pro
grams.
The last school assembly will be
Friday morning at $50, when the re-
port cards will be given out and the
final announcements made.

You are not responsible for the lives
and the characters Of those about you,
but you are responsible for your own.
After all, you do not have to live with
them, but you do have to live with
yourself, You can shut the door on
the blackguard and the libertine, but
you cannot shut the door on yourself.
Too many Of US lose sight Of this
truth. We deplOre conditions that
thrust US into the society of unde-
