Roller Rink
To Open Soon

February IL, information was
released that there would be a
first class roller skating rink in
the East Madison district. Sew
eral locations are available but it
was learned that the vicinity of
23rd and East Madison would be
favored.
Considerable activity in the
business world has been evidenced
by the race lately, and it was to
supply a demand that animated
the thought of a roller skating
rink. With the present activity
continuing, real property in the
district will soon be back to its
former level. Many fine and COM
plimentary expressions have been
voiced from leaders in the COM
munity commencing the recent adj
ditions to the business world.

at seems to me that that is
one of the serious things you, who
are being educated, should bear in
mind; that if you are going to
obtain the treasures of Heaven and
be the means by which those treas

of human life today, you must
not only knock at the door of
Heaven; you must place yourself
on the altar of God and enlist
with all the capacity that God has
given to you in trying to build up
the brotherhood of man, the king

on earth. 1t is only as you do that
that grace of Almighty God can be
of any use to you and that you can
be of any service in the world you
are about to enter as those who
have taken their stand as soldiers
in the great army of God.

is as necessary to the worlds

Norman Price Post Is
Sponsoring Spelling Bee
At Sherwood Friday

Norman Price Post of the American
Legion IS sponsoring spelling bee
and Professor Quiz contest Friday,
March rs, at 1880 p. m. in the audi
forum of Sherwood School, located at
Sandy Spring.
Old ideas and customs seem to take
the popular fancy with the coming of
each generation. The radio has made
the Professor Quiz question box very
popular and everyone likes a spelling
match.
In the good old horse and buggy
days, when local affairs were attended
by the entire community, the cultural
and intellectual interests were sharp
ened by contests of spelling and mem
DRY tests, mostly dealing with the
classics. The name commonly given to
these meetings was the Lyceum,
better known today as the Town Hall
In order that the newcomers in this
old and venerable county might have
a better opportunity to enter into ac-
tive cooperation in the continued de-
velopment of education and progress,
the Legion Post felt that contest to
|reestablish this splendid custom would
be in order. Everyone will take part
the young and the patriarchs - all
will be present; the boys and girls to
prove their mettle and the elders to
encourage them in their efforts.
At the present time general run
off of the different grades at Sher-
wood is taking place. Each room
selects its best boy and girl spoilers.
This pair will then be part of the
group representing one of the differ
ent grades, either elementary, Junior
High or Senior High.
