Just think, Christmas is right
around the corner. Preparations
have already begun. BY this time
almost everyone has the Christmas
Spirit and various clubs and stu
dents are beginning to have part
les and banquets. This past Thurs
day night the F. H. A. celebrated
one of the highlights of the year
Mother-Daugther banquet in the
cafeteria. This was one of the best
banquets we have ever had.
On Wednesday night, December
l6, the Seniors will have a Christ
mas party at Rachel Cores home.
The boys and girls representing
Williams Township School on the
hardwood were nursing wounds
inflicted by Whiteville last Friday
night when the Aggies lost 1896
and the FarmeretteS were downed
SAB. Although the teams lost,
we think they played wonderful
games and our note to you-just
keep up the good work.
On tuesday night, December Is,
the Aggies and FarmeretteS play
ed the Tabor City Red Devils in
the Williams gym. Thursday night
the cagers will travel to White
vile to face the Wolflets and
Wolfpack in the Whiteville gym.
Hope to see everyone present to
support their team.
If anyone comes up to you and
asks you to buy something, don't
be surprised. The Seniors are try
ing to raise money to go to Wash
ington the week after scheel. The
Juniors are raising funds for the
annual Junior-Senior banquet and
the Betas are selling hosiery to
raise money for this project.
This past Wednesday morning
in assembly Mr. Robert A. Ponton
of the F. c. X. talked to us about
the essay contest. Everyone en-
joyed the talk.
Until next week-beSt of luck
to all of you!
