eleven years for not paying his in-

One of the outstanding and most
effective programs of the high
school was given Tuesday morning
as a farewell by the senior class.
Due to the talent and humor of the
senior students this program ex-
celled all others. It followed thus:
Madge Sears presiding. First, the
school song, “When That Old White-
wright High School Falls in Line,”
was sung by the student body, fol-
lowed by an introduction by the
president, Madge Sears; a talk was
next, given by Homer Lee Sears,
“What High School Has Meant To a
Senior.” Following this a duet was
sung by James Lindsey and Maxine
Roberts; Lester Martin gave an ap-
preciation to the faculty; a piano
solo was next given by Clyde John-
son and was followed by a talk by
Myra Nell Vestal on “Appreciation
of Juniors;” Burgher Reed, Donald,
Lloyd, James and Ben sang a song
which was followed by a talk by Mr.
Smith to the seniors. The program
was closed by a song by the seniors.
We wish to say that our dearest
wish is that the seniors will be a great
success in life and will always be as
nice to their friends as they have
been to us.
We also wish to express publicly
our thanks to Clyde Johnson for the
untiring help she has rendered to
