    SOUTH DEEIt CREKK.
One of the pleasantest occasions
in this section occurred recently,
when the singing school presented
their teacher, Mr. Karcher, with a
beautiful sectional bookcase. .A
committee composed of. Mr. and Mrs.
Pickens, Miss Ruth Gilliam and Roy
Hatfield solicited funds for this 'ob
ject, purchased the bookcase and
brought it out to the school house,
where it was placed In a darkened
corner until it was presented to Mr.
Karcher by the class. Miss Myrtle
Hatfield made the presentation
speech and Mr. Karcher was taken
by surprise. He accepted the gift
with appropriate remarks, thanking
the various members of his class for
appreciating his labors -in making
the singing school a success.
Last Friday finished the term of
our district school and the teacher.
Miss Corryell, carried out an elab
orate program for the occasion. All
the pupils took part in various dia
