The purpose of the tax was to
raise sufficient amount of money
to pay the salary of one teacher
who is to be lost in accordance
with the law which defines the
number of teachers which each
school may have according to the
student enrolment. Many of the
residents of the school district are
disturbed to think that Greenwood
is now the only school district, who
in the last few months have set up
a proposed tax to handle this en-

SPOR IS
WOMEN IN BOWLING
BY CONNIE TURNER

The Five stars really proved
they were just that by accom-
plishing the nearly impossible.
Because of the absence of one
of their members, they were
bowling with the Dummy Score
of 65-which is distinct handi-
cap. The Pins, the top team
and their opponents for the eve
ming, had a spare bowler due to
the absence of one member. The
Pins took the first string by a
margin of 20 pins, and, from all
appearances the other strings
were destined to follow the same
pattern. Then it happened, the
Five Stars won the second string
by one pin and the third by
81.
Several alleys away, the Vows
and the Meteors were giving
each other nothing but trouble.
In the eighth box of the first
string, they were tied and every
one was wondering which way
the tide would turn. Norma
Moore (Wowl put a stop to all
the conjecture by bowling a
spare on the spare and clinch-
ing the string. The succeeding
strings had the same outcome.
The Meteors found themselves
SO close to winning only to be
outdistanced by the Vows who
are now in first place again.
The Anchors were completely
overwhelmed by the straight Ar
rows. The Arrows also bowled
the high single (461) and the
high three (1337) for the eve
mig. Hattie Bryant Of the
Meteors bowled the individual
high single (114) and high three
(286) for the evening.
The Cresents had one good
string in their efforts against
the Robins. The Robins took
the first string, but the Cres-
cents came back with a bang in
the second. After taking the
first string, the Cyclones don't
know TO this minute what Vivian
Freeman and the rest of the
Ravens had up their sleeves in

AMUSEMENT

It is good to take time on for
amusement = pleasure - relaxa-
tion--ease, but not toe much time
certainly not all the time. Life
is serious, its issues must be met
if we would reach some goal. II
we play too much--sleep too
much, we grow soft, unfit for the
taxations of work and endeavor.
There are those who are fifty and
yet they are still children-play-
ing at life. They will never grow
up use their minds - think.
Each man should make a con-
tribution to humanity, leave It
better than he found it, put his
mark upon it. If he does not
make the world a better place
because he has lived in it, he has
made no returns for his life.
Amusement is the happiness Of
those who cannot think"

CHARM
BY LOU SWARZ

FAITH gives you Charm in
that it gives you poise. When
you have faith in yourself, know
ing that you can do whatever
it is to be done, you are able to
take a stand and keep it, and
that Faith in yourself is de-
veloped through the channel of
"stick-to-it-iveness" and prayer.
Notice what can be accomplished
when you say to yourself that
you can and will do a thing.
What more can we expect? Moth
ing. The mere fact that you
can, gives you the urge, power,
the will, courage, and the FAITH
which counts III any ones life.
We speak of POISE but
that only comes with knowing
that you know what you are do
ing. And you can only know
what you are doing when you
have developed that FAITH. To
be poised is to be charming, so
to have faith is to have charm.
You are steady, careful, alert,
always pleased, and we'll at ease
when your faith is unmovable.
In case you lack that faith in
God, in yourself, and in others,
then let us turn again to the
Thought or Meditation" periods
daily and give ourselves a little
time to read our "Best Seller"
the Bible getting out of it some
thing which will help us toward
developing our faith; or even
more simple than that is to take
such saying as we learned years
ago, as "An apple day, keeps
the Doctor away"-how simple;
but let us use one for our Faith
such as :+Day by Day, l am gain
ing more Faith in myself, in
others, and in Divine Guidance. :"
Try it for awhile, and see
what it does for you and for
your CHARM.
