Caldwell School
Takes Top Honors
In Speech Contest
Charlene Harris
Brings Laurels
!. To Local System

Miss Charlene Harris of the
Caldwell high school won top
honors in Class B schools at the
state finals of the Ohio High
school speech league held in
Columbus, Friday and Saturday,
at Ohio State University.
Supt. P. D. Canavan said today
he considered this an exception
ally high honor for the local
schools as they have only been a
member since September, 1850.
AS an exempted school, they
We're placed in Class B.
Any high school in the state
may become a member of the
league and classification depends
upon the size of the student body
and their type of supervision,
city, county or exempted village.
In March, district contest for
one act plays and poetry reading
was held at Muskingum College,
which Caldwell entered. Here
the one act play entry, "Sparkin" ,
directed by Byron Steen was
given good" rating. The poem
"The Mountain Whippoorwill'
read by Miss Charlene Harris and
coached by Cynthia M. Elson was
given an excellent" rating.
Because of this rating, Miss
Harris was a participant in the
poetry reading finals at Ohio
State University for Glass B
schools, April 81. There she
again read the poem, THE Noun
tain Whippoorwill" by Stephen
Vincent Benet and she again re-
ceived an excellent" rating for
her work. She competed against
poetry readers from Rosecrans
high school in GAINESVILLE and
Urbana high school.
Miss Harris was presented with
two certificates-one for her
reading at Muskingum college
and one for her work Saturday
at the state finals.
This work in speech is new
subject in the Caldwell schools,
having been introduced by Supt.
Canavan. He had been very ac-
tive in this work during his ad-
in the schools OF
Ohio.
The subject will be offered In
Caldwell high school again next
year and will be open to all high
school students. Different types
of work which may be taken by
the students include debate, one
act plays, humorous declama-
tions, extemporaneous speaking
and original or memorized ora
tory.
This year, Caldwell high
school participated in debate,
one act plays and poetry reading
but the administration hopes to
have students entered IN all
phases of work next September.

Emma Pearl has come a long
way since January, 1919, when she
was first stricken with polio at
her home on tenant farm in Ray
mond. One of twelve children of
Lawyer and Willie Mae Berry,
Emma Pearl, then just four years
old, was the only one in her family
to suffer the dread disease. She
was rushed to the state polio CEN
ter at Vicksburg where she began
long, hard fight back until now,
aided by brace on her right leg,
an abdominal band and crutches
she can almost keep up with her
brothers and sisters.
Her treatment, under the super
vision of the Kinds County Chap
ter, NIP, has cost $1,598.45 in
March f Dimes funds to-date
and she is still under the care of
Vicksburg doctors with periodic
check-ups scheduled for years to
come.
When notified that she had been
named National Poster Child EN-
ma Pearl could only summon a big,
happy smile. Most of her family
were in the field picking the last
of some eight bales of cotton.
Actually, this announcement
came as something of an anti-cli-
max for Emma Pearl compared to
the thrill of the day Kinds NIP
County Chapter Executive Secre-
Miss Esther Helm, NIP State
Representative, took her to Jack
son to glamorize her for a photo
graph to submit to New York.
A new hairdo, minus the pig
tails, and spanking new cowgirl
outfit, complete with sombrero and
two guns, gave the little six-year-
old new confident air that was
touching to see. At the end of the
exciting day she said shyly to Mrs.
Roundtree, "You know, heaps Of
folks are good to little polios." For
her, polio had, at last, some COM
pensation.

can be rehabilitated and made useful citizens

Happily, Gov. Dewey is extending the hand of mercy

He redeem all believing souls.
He was born in Manager
And not a hotel of no end
He showed the world the value
Of the meekness of all our men.
He was not born in no palace
He was born as redeenling Christ
To fulfill His Fathers will on high
So for every race on earth He
gave His life.

But that didn't make him a Jewish

He was a Redeeming Christ for
the world.

God gives me a message to write
Theology says Jesus was Jew
Yet He showed no different in the

God gave lest world a man
To die for the sins of every race
So Jesus was Reckoning Christ
He died for every color of face.
