whom are from rural districts.
This is 56 per cent of the total
enrollment. Other officers of this
class are Bill Hogue, vice presi-
dent; Park McKinney, secretary;

you ever sat out
about dusk, when the lights just
begin popping on over the coun-
try, and noticed the many car
lights. The many makes of cars
have different shaped lights.
Each pair of lights is brighter or
dimmer than the previous oner.
It’s strange that these two
white dots on the black night
about us has such a meaning to
our high school students, but it
reullv does. I’m sure Marie Ker-
bow and Marilou Jack can always
tell those two specks beaming in
the distance that bring W- H-
Stewart and Weldon Ewing stead-
ily onward to meet that 8:30
date. Even though there are
other Fords that pass their way,
no others have that certain gleam.

Huge Success
