Junior Stunts at Star Pleasing To begin it all, tho juniors started it, but the seniors. helped them quite a bit when it came to the advertising. The juniors needed money for the annual banquet. For a long time the question seemed unanswerable, but someone suggested stunts and stunts it was. Last Tuesday night they presented their long-prepared program to a large audience. They had planned to put on a short play, but the books did not arrive soon enough. The first number was the "Modern Ford" in other words four chairs, the hood of an old engine, four tin pans for noise, a piano stool for the wheel and four "huskies" for tires. Alvin Boyd, the farmer, seemed to have a time getting the "gesh-dang thing" to go. and alter all his efforts to fasten a plow share on the en gine, he was rewarded by four "blow outs." Readings dby Helen Wells and Elaine Sigebee were well received as were the violin solos by Stanley Peterson. Six of the juniors also favored with popular songs. The finale! It was worth the money just to seethe darkies proceed with tho Virginia reel to the tune of "Turkey in the Straw." They also sang "Carry Me Back to Old Vir ginny." As a whole the stunts were well done, showing that they had prac ticed much. They are especially grateful to Mr. Sigsbee for the use of the building. In he meantime the seniors had planned a "dress up day. Something "wild" was suggested,' and they ap peared as Gypsies. The bright col ors of the costumes attracted much attention and, although they were mistaken for juniors many times, they advertised the show. The seniors think, however, that part of the credit Is due them (especially Phil) for the amusements before the show started. County Judge Cafpbell and Com missioners Davidson and Benge re ceived a jolt last Wednesday evening as they were about to wind up the session of county court when County Clerk Waters handed the judge a let ter containing his formal resignation from the position he has so long and so acceptably filled. The action was entirely unexpected bv he members of the court although Mr. Waters has had the matter under consideration for some time. He asked to have the resignation take effect on April 1. or as soon thereatfer as his sifcessrr can be appointed and qualified, 'flic matter was taken under advisement by the court and will not be a"ted upon until (he regular Aoril meeting. Mr. Waters has filled the ofrice of county clerk for about S years an-J had come to be regarded by the peo ple of the county as a permanent fix ture. His high efficiency, covneocs attention to callers at the office, sterling integrity and pleasing per sonality has endeared him to all who know him and that m:rns about everybody In Morrow county. Mr. Crandall. who audits (he book? every year, remarked (o the writer recently that he considered the clerk's office in this county an ex cepdon among tho counties of the state in the orderly and systematic manner In which the business Is con ducted. While Mr. Waters has not announc ed bis future plans in detail, it is un derstood that he will loeatj in Port land where his family has resided for some time while his son is attend ing school there. Certain it Is, how ever, that wherever he locates that community will gain a mighty fine cltiien. The court has made no announce ment as to who Mr. Watery succes sor will be but from expressions heard on all sides 1t would seem that the promotion of Deputy Clerk Gay M. Anderson to the vancancy would meet with very general approval. Mr. Anderson has been deputy in the office during almost the entire ter-n of Mr. Waters' service and his lms experience and training um'ir Mr. Waters should make him (1 e lo;;ic.il succtssor.
