Yoakum Sunday to see the
movie “Mildred Pierce.” When
the newsreel flashed Van John-

almost swooned.
Personality of the Week
The personality of the Sopho-
more class for this week is
Floyd Heiman. Floyd is about
5 feet and 2 inches tall, and has
gray eyes and blonde hair. He
is the smartest boy in the class..
At least, he seems, to be! He is
constantly talking, but we are
not quite sure what it is about.
Floyd has been telling every-
one about the wonderful time
he had while he was at the Fat
Stock Show in Houston last Sat-
urday—How many girls did you
meet, Floyd?
See you next week—

Commercial Club
The commercial club held
their initiation of new mem-
bers last Thursday night. A
large number of new members
and a few old members were
present. After the initiation was
finished two club mothers
served cookies and hot cocoa.
After the lunch games were
played until the party broke up.
Everyone had an enjoyable
time watching the initiation and
playing games.
Third and Fourth Grades
Monday morning the third
grade had some questions in
English. No one new that we
had the questions. In arithmetic
class Ida Louise Schierschwitz
spoke up and said, “Gosh! We
had a lot of questions in Eng-
lish. Everybody got dizzy at
that moment. Then Miss Elsie
said, “Yes, I said that to read
the story and if there were any
questions to answer, answer
them.” Then everyone got busy
to get their questions.
We have collected several old
clothes for the clothing drive.
We wish to thank Mrs. Koether
for bringing the leaflets which
told us how the children in
Europe need clothes.

YOUR PLOW IS A TWO-WAY WEAPON
Plowing under cotton stalks NOW will pay
you double dividends next season.
First of all, it is the best known way to re-
duce boll weevil infestation—an insurance policy
chat every farm needs against repetition of the
costly damage weevils did to the crop this year.
Plowing under cotton stalks this fall also
helps to improve the condition of soil for 1946
ccor.s, and to increase yields per acre next season.
