PREPAID SHARES
SAFETY OF YOUR
INVESTMENT INSURED
UP TO $5,000
Of the four types of shares of-
fered by this Association, the
Prepaid Share is one of the two
types designed for lump sum
investment rather than install-
ment purchase.
Dividends on Prepaid Shares
remain to the shareholder's
credit and accumulate at com-
pound interest over a period of
time, until the original invest-
ment plus dividends amounts
to the full $100 par value of each
share;
Prepaid Shaces are well suited
for the accumulation of sums of
less than $100, and are an attrac-
tive investmentfor people who do
not save regularly, but have oc-
casional savings to set aside for
the future.

FIR5T FEDERAL SAVINGS AND
LOAN ASSOCIATION
OF RUSK
The boys of Rusk High school
assembled Fast Tuesday for the
purpose of electing <two members
of the student council, an organ-
ization to help discipline the stud-
ents of Rusk High school.
Luther Smith, one of last year's
members, is "Held over this year.
The student council is made up
of three boys and tw0 girls. The
purpose of this council is to help
the teachers in governing the
school. The council has to enforce
the rules of the school in keeping
the building clean, and discipling
of students.
When asked by Mr. Moore to
explain the purpose of he student
council, Luther said: "We tried
to take some of the work off the
teachers. We co-operated with
them in keeping the building clean
and we have a say in the discipling
of pupils. The student council has
a great responsibility in this. He
i must have good reasoning."
I Following Luther's speech Mr.
j Moore gave the studentbody a bit
. of advise. He said that in nom-
| inating a person for the place to be
I careful in selecting someone who
| has sound Judgment and good cool
I reasoning.
There were only two boys nom-
inated, they were Olie Phifer and
Harold Miller. They were elected
by acclamation. Mr. Moore then
gave the boys some advise in pass-
ing judgment.
The two then called' upon to
make a speech:
Harold said: "I haven't much
to «ay except that I appreciate the
honor very much and that I will
do my best to serve as a good
council member."
Olie said: "I apprieciate the
honor of bein gelected as a mem-
ber of the student council and 1
will help anyone that ft !s in my
power to help."
Right! Right! Right from the
country
Hep by Jingo! ""J,
Left! Left! Left! '
Here comes the "Pep squad."
Tall girls, Slim girls—
Little girls, big girls, blonde
girs brown girls followed the band
up and down the streets and
around the square advertising the
game.
The object of the "pep squad"
was their first time to march some
of them were marching, others
skipping, and the little girls were
running to keep up with the big
ones. They then went back to the
field. Evidently these girls were
football-ignorant for they were
on the field marching, skipping
and running when the whistle blew
for the kick off.
When they got back to their
places, the first quarter was prac-
tically ovter. Imagine their em-
barrasment!
After that stunt, they decided
about the best thing they could do
was yell- So they sent forth their
voices into the heavens. They de
cided to faint but failed. She soon
recovered from the schock and
continued with the yelling.
After the game was won, they
paraded again. Some of them were
I zigging when the should have been
zagging, others marching when
I they should have been running,
i and some running when they
should have been marching. After
the band had been dismissed they
voiced their enthusiasm over win
ning the game.
All of the members of the "pep
squad" have promised' to help win
the games by doing their part in
the side line.
1'hey met on the court house
lawn Thursday night t0 yell for
the first time this year. Consider-
ing the fact that they had for-
gotten mos of he yells, he school
spirit was shown in their efforts
to d0 their best.
STUDENT GOVERNMEN
Nothing could create more
school spirit, and make the stud-
ents feel that they have a hand
in running their school, than the
organiazing of a student council.
Allowing the students to elect
five of their number to acutally
aid Mr. Chapman in the manage-
ment of the school makes us feel,
more than any other one thing,
that it is our school and not Mr.
Moore's or the faculity's.
I believe that all the student
back but, 0 nthe whole, the stud-
ent body, or at least those who
think about it more than once, feel
the desire for new and showier
collors.
Therefore, I think it is high
time for the student body to de-
cide on the colors that are to con-
tinue to represent Rusk High
school of at least settle the ques-
tion of colors once and for all in
the minds of Rusk High students

It seems as thoT^h Mr. Martin's
orchestra members are taking
quite an interest in their playing.
Wednesday Valera Conway, Bessie
Marie Box ,and Lorraine Spark-
man became so interested that
forgot to listen for the bell and
were late to class.
John Alton Wallace, a new
member in the freshman class, has
taken quite an interest in Josey
Lee Sanders and it isn't a one-
sided affair.
Bobbie Treadway has become
quite a popular young lady among
both the boys and girls.

What is this about Boyd Raley
wanting t0 come out some night
and croon to a certain good-look-
ing senior. By this we know he
has been studying his English —
(Romanticism.)
We all wonder why Ulysses is
so fond of orchid and insists upon
having it as one of the senior
colors.
I wonder who "she" is that put
Burnelle's eyes out so that now
he is wearing smoked glasses.
Could it be Bobbie?
What were Rose Mary, Frank,
Luther, Angeline, and Jack Odom

Conoco is not the only oil refined by modern
methods. But notice what all the usual processes
are said to take out. Then notice what the ex-
clusive Germ Process—fully patented—PUTS IN.
Nothing vague about this process.
It tops off everything else known to Refinery
Science, by putting in the Hidden Quart which
makes your engine stay oiled.
You can park your car for hours in blizzards;
stand for days in a cold garage. But you cannot
make a dragging, expensive, engine-eating start.
Unlike other oil, no matter how free-flowing,
Conoco Germ Processed Oil needn't wait for
your starter or oil pump. The Hidden Quart is
up on guard in advance. It hasn't drained down
because it can't. The Germ Process has let it
"marry" into the inner surfaces of your engine
for good ... a strange though natural "affinity"
well known to scientists.
Even the new copper-lead, high-lead and
cadmium-alloy bearings, as well as conventional
babbitt bearings, are far better protected by
Conoco Germ Processed Oil than by plain
mineral oils. Scientific tests have proved this.
But millions whose
only laboratory is under
the hood, can tell you a
lot about the Hidden
Quart and Germ Proc-
essing. They'll tell you
the battery stays up, the
oil level stays up, the old
winter worry and ex*
pense stay away.
All you need to tell
your nearest Conoco man
is "Change mitie right
now!" Continental Oil
Co., Established 1875.
