OPEN HOUSE
“School days, school days
‘Dear old golden rule days,
Taught to the tune of the hickory
stick.”’
These are the memories that were
“acl in the minds of the pareuts of the students of N. C. H. S.
on Thursday night, October. 10th,
when they gathered in the assembly
hali at the beginning of the “‘open
house’'’ program.
Each paren was. provided with a
_program.-ofstudy...of. his_son._or
daughter and followed this schedule
through seven minute classes. Considering the fact that it was the
first day of school the students
found little difficulty in finding
their respective classes in obeying
the rules and regulations such as
single file on stairs and no gum
chewing.
At the end of the seventh hour
two
students
doughnuts
ed after a few remarks by Mr.
son. ,
The purposes of this program
were to’ acquaint the parents with
the work that the students are doing and give the teachers and parents an opportunity to meet each
other and to discuss any problems
that might arise.
bells were rung, calling the
to the assembly © where
and coffee were servWilAbout seventy parents were present. This was a very good percentage. although the faculty would
have liked to have seen more present. However, the faculty felt very
much encouraged by the cooperation, which the parents gave.
PRESENTATION OF PRIZES
Presettation of. prizes to winners
of. Fire Prevention Contest was hee
at an assembly Thursday morning.
Mr. R. J. Bennetts, president of the
Chamber of Commerce, awarded the
prize of five dollars to Bob Tucker,
4 member of the Freshman class,
who won first prize and two and a
half dollars to Margaret Rector, a
member of the Junior class, who
won second prize.
Mr. Bennetts also said a few
words on the great amount of property which fires destroy. He said,
“The dmount of money loss due to
fire,is enough to finance two great
projects which are being contemplated, that of relief of devastation of the Mississippe Valley by
floods and that of the deepening of
the canal from the Great Lakes to
the Ocean’. These remarks made us
elearly realize that the fire problem
is a grave situation,
Mr. Bennetts also. thanked the
faculty and students for»their splendid cooperation with
of Commerce.

subjects taken. These cards will be
used by the parents just as similar
ones were used by the pupils at the
beginning. of the term. The last item

the report cards. These were met
