I was standing on the street looking at the scraper go by as a stick of wood got caught in the wheel, and a good lady stepped up and wanted to know my opinion (as if my opinion made any difference) about politics. I told her I wasn’t running and wasn’t par ticularly getting het up about any of it. She said well she was for Jere Zollicoffer for Congress because sue thought he was absolutely honest and had plenty of senese for a congress man. t said I thought that, too. Then the good lady began deploring our habits and ways here in the old home town. i&he thought it tragic that we couldn’t get together on hard ly anythin. She said the other day she was looking in an old hook of some kind that sorter made an ap praisal of towns and cities in North Carolina as of a quarter of a century ago Well, I was just coming along then; it was some five or six years be fore I came to this good town. But that book, the lady said, commented that Henderson was a ’fast growing town ” something it didn't say about a lot of other places she could and did jame. She asked no* what had nappeneu ,o us here and ibofore I could say any thing. she up ar.d answered her own question. She said it was all because we couldn't get together and stick to gether and stick together on things. v*)3 sorter agreed there was some folks around here that are talking one way when their heart’s entirely a different way They are suspected of saying they’ll vite for Jere and at heart hop ing like thunder he won’t get it. This lady said another lady not long ago asked her if she knew why Hen derson had never had anybody to get much recognition at home or any where else. This other lady said, I’ll teil you.” And then explained that it was because every time some local man or woman shows some signs of some ability or somethin’ and begins to attract a little attention, a lot of the rest of the folks start up the anvil chorus and jump on him or her with both feet and begin to stomp them down in the dirt to keep them from getting up. The lady talking to me said she thought one of the meanest tilings on earth is this thing we cail jealousy. And something was said that a lot of folks who know they can’t be elected to Congress just naturally don’t want ere Jollicoffer to get it either, just because they can’t. I ask. you, do you know anybody that cap fits? adies and gentlemen, we’ve got to get out of that frame of mind here in the old home town if we are going to get anybody up to Congress or put them forward in State affairs or any thing else. We’ve got to shed a neap of selfishness and jealousy and put our folks forward with united sup port. That’s what we’ve got to do, and we won’t get anywherem uch until we do just that thing. An don’t you for get it. You say that’s knocking the town. Naw, it ain’t knocking nothing nor nobody, except folks that need a little knocking. It’s just taking stock. This sort of plain talk among friends and between ourselves won’t hort—or it oughtn’t to. HIGHEST HONORED Seventy-nine high school boys and girls were honored Tuesday evening at the annual commencement exercises of Henderson high school at the Steveneson theatre by the receipt of their diplomas, showing that they had completed the prescribed course of high school study necessary for grad uation* Some of the seniors were more highly honored than others, those had excelled in extra-curricular activities. or made the best scholastic record for the four years or some other phase of school work. There was one senior that was the highest honored of all. No, she was not the valedictorian, the salutatorian, nor the best all-round in the school. From the audience at the theatre, she was just one of the 79 to get diplomas. No flowery words were spoken by some brilliant speaker in the presen tation of her honor; no note had been made of the fact other than her name was on the class roll. But in spite of all this, she was the highest honor ed. To admit one*s mistake, to go hack after two year’s absence when you are out. of step with what has been going on at the school and with two years staring you in the face before you can hope to ever graduate; takes nerve, determination and ability. It was a tremendous task for anyone to tackle. This young lady went back to school, dug down in her studies, mas tered them and came through her final senior examinations with good grades; marched upon the stage of the Stevenson theatre the highest honored of all the students for having done this, and was presented her diploma. The medals that presented at the exercises may rust, the cups tarnish, thed iplomas fade and the names of the graduates be forgotten, but the determination shown by this young lady student in returning to school and graduating after two years’ ab sence, will stand like a Gibraltar through the years to come. My hat is off to you, Miss Rebecca Aronson Church, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. H. M. Church, the highest honored of all the seniors. ROTARY HEADS AT DISTRICT MEETING S. H.‘Watkins, president, and E. F.
