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.
