PHIOLPPINE INDEPENDENCE

The •Philippines have been treking

Senior Chapel Program
Several weeks ago the Senior Class
was highly hdno-ed by an invitation
from Mr. Cobb to have a farewell,
menbaMy tiplifting chapel program,
end to set such i proghrtn as a j*rede
detit. So the Seniors with she aid
es their sponsor, Miss Taylor, began
Work oh tbis program, the theme of
vMoh was "Seekfng" and presented
i: to MR eiftire school Friday mortt
!ng.
Mildred Poytlirees in bdr usual
rliarminig and graceful manner presid
ed over the program, and wkh a great
de*i of skill tied up tfhe different Talks
er.d numbers. Instead of having a
.•vri'pture read. Louise Powell. George
Harrison. Kathtrine Faulkner, and
Olive Hlght sang “Seek Ye the Lord,"
' ?ry sßeetly, after which we were
Ivd in prayer by Robert Whitten.
The talks w<tp divided into two
f roups <1 > what we have sought; and
1 2) what we seek in the future. In
n talk. "What We Have Bought In
Athletics.’' Edna Goodrich pointed out
»ha?t fWo of the main things sought
tvere good sport smamfhfp and afert
f’ess of mind. Leorrard Eason, from
the boy's viewpo rt, said that they had
rought the same things in athletics.
In VnoWTedge, said Mary Pat-ham, in
tier talk on “'What XVe Have Bought
ir. we have sought four
ihfngs—broadmir.dness, ability to learn
quickly, ability to choose for one's
'■elf. and self-Oopendence in gaining
further Imowledge. The most Import
ant thing that we seek in the future,
aid Frieda HayPs in a most interest
ing arnd helpfnl talk, is cltteenOHlp.
Tn a talk, "What We Seek for You,”
Hick diavaase pointed out four things
-a spirit of cooperation; to make
paths of seniorhood easier for the
coming Seniors; to build up a better

j SPORTS
Since school Is drawing near so‘must
our sports, especially baseball which
is now in the spot lighft. With only
three mora gomes, not counting the
one with Ayoook, th* high school blue
will put their Uniforms away
among ’the mrtth baNa.
During the part season Hendersdn
has mat strong teams and atthough
.they have lost many games (bey have
also put up a good fight But whb
knows whether they win. lose, -at put
up a good fight? Very 'few. There
were very few eo attend the base
ball games, and the same goes for bas
ketball abd football. Why is our
school not interested In their sports?
Why do a very few go to all games
while (he others go to shows and
then when they hear the team has last
they talk about how sorry the team is.
Have you ever played on the high
school team for any spdrt? If you
have then you will agree that when a
crowd is near cheering you os you con
play mbch better, but If Ihe crowd
Isn't there you don't care muCh if you
do win. nobody knows about it and
if they do that's all they know about it.
It's too late now to dhow your school
spirit but next tear Che same sports
v/ill again be carried on. Are they to
be as thdy were this year, with pool*
attendance and no school spirit? Let's
hope not, let’s all resolve now to at
tend all games possible abd cheer
them on. Let's make the High School
sperts for IM2 and '33 a banner year
In games won as well as games at
tended .

The other day it was printed in the
sports column that no home runs had
been hit this year, or fOr a number
of years. Since that time Two home
runs have be en hit. brtth by none
other than "Unk" Frank Mills. His
fim one was hit in the game with
here in Henderson; it was
hit inside rhe perk but It took some
fast stepping »e circle the bogs fn
time. He hit his other one Friday
against Aycock for our only score.
This home run was a true wallop, it
cleared ihfe barb wire fence in right
field and then -proceeded to go Into
the woods. So far from now on or
can say that Henderson high school
hash't turned ont at team that hasn't
knocked some home han. By the way,
the team this year has, together, bH
a large number of triples, the WearWd

Lillian’s head was bowed, hfer

"I hired her to win you from that

"And 1 thought 1 made it clear

Barry tried to Interrupt but she
went on: "Os course, you don’t love

You're only mistaking a cheap in

“Hired—" escaped Barry.
Lillian bit her lip. Her face was

"Why, Barry —1 picked her up in a

“Lillian—Lillian— ** half surprise,

“A bread line!” repeated Mrs.
Carlton. "Let her tell you so. her

They both turned to Lillian. The
raucous, angry tones of the woman
cut Lillian like knives. Her eyes
blared.
Lillian covered her face with her
arms and did not answer. Shame,
fear, regret flooded her mind and her
heart.
"You’ve been fooled, Barry. You

“Tell mb! Tell me it Isn't true. Tell
