Description
State Bank of Orlando check to Burlington Savings Bankdated January, 4th. 1905. The check was paid to the order of the State Bank of Orlando and the value received and charge was to Burlington Savings Bank of Burlington, Vermont in the sum of $300. The check was signed by Walter A Smith, who was a cashier of the State Bank of Orlando.<br /><br />The bank was formed in 1893 with Louis Massey as president. In 1919, the State Bank converted into the State Bank and Trust Company and also acquired the northeast corner of Orange Avenue and Central Boulevard that year. A. G. Bentley constructed a ten-story building on that lot, designed by W. L. Stoddart in the 20th Century Commercial style with Neo-Classical elements. The building was used by the bank until it closed in 1929. In 1933, the Florida Bank at Orlando acquired the property. In 1927, the building was acquired by Orange County and served as governmental offices, including the office of the sheriff and supervisor of elections. In 2002, it housed the temporary home of Florida Atlantic Metropolitan University's Law School.

Description
Brochure listing the Seaboard Airline Railroad time tables for 1948. The brochure illustrates the benefits of traveling to Florida by rail. The railroad dates back to 1832 when the Portsmouth & Roanoke Rail road was chartered in Virginia. The company was reorganized as the Seaboard & Gaston Railroad and the Raleigh & August Air-Line Railroad to form the Seaboard Air Line System, which expanded through the south. The Orlando rail station was razed in 1955. By the 1960s, the railroad was a major competitor of the Atlantic Coast Line and eventually merged with ACL in 1967. Amtrak took over operations in 1971.

SEABOARD AIRLINE RAILROAD
THROUGH THE HEART OF THE SOUTH
EFFECTIVE APRIL 25, 1948
The SILVER METEOR

Florida! AND THE SOUTH ALL-YEAR VACATIONLAND
Known throughout the world as the "American Riviera", Florida is not only the most famous of winter resorts but, also, is an ideal vacation-land in any season . . . Its emerald waters and silvery beaches, framed in the rioting colors of tropical flowers and the cool green of whispering palms, make it particularly attractive in the summertime . . . The glamour and luxury for which Florida is noted are easily within the reach of the average purse . . . Much less than the usual vacation budget will provide a never-to-be-forgotten summer season sojourn in America's foremost playground . . . Reduced round trip coach and sleeping car fares.
Seaboard is the only railroad affording you the opportunity to visit both the Atlantic and Gulf Coasts of Florida, over its own rails, on one round trip ticket to West Palm Beach or beyond, without additional cost . . . This includes such outstanding tourist attractions as Silver Springs, Homosassa Springs, Cypress Gardens, the famous Bok Singing Tower, and Highlands Hammock State Park.

Description
Tourism booklet from the mid-1920s. It contains 16 pages and shows many Orlando city sights including buildings in the Orlando commercial district.<br /><br />The Orlando area was originally occupied by the Creek and Seminole tribes. In 1838, Fort Gatlin was erected on the shores of Lake Gatlin, just a few miles south of present-day downtown Orlando. Centered around Church Street in Orlando, Orlando became a city in 1884. Originally a cattle town, Orlando grew into a major citrus growing center by the 1920s. The city continued to grow during the Great Depression with aid from the Work Progress Administration (WPA). During World War II, Orlando became a major military center as well with the development of the McCoy and Pinecastle Air Force Bases, and with the addition of the Orlando Naval Training Center in 1968. Downtown Orlando declined in the 1960s and 1970s. Redevelopment began in the 1970s and continued into the 1980s, with projects such as Church Street Station. In 1998, a building boom began and continued through the 2000s.

ORLANDO, FLA.—The City Beautiful
Orlando is the seventh city of Florida, having a population of approximately 13,000. It is the largest inland city in the State.
From 1910 to 1920 Orlando increased 137.7 per cent in population and since 1920 its percentage of increase has passed those figures which. if maintained, will exceed 30,000 popula¬tion by the next census year.
The outstanding feature in the city's activities since 1909 have been its construction pro-gram, topping the others by an enormous gain. During 1921 the building permits issued totalled $1,596,019, while in 1922 Orlando went over the $3,000,000 mark.
The spirit of push and progress is scarcely equalled by any city twice its size. The business section is famed for its up-to-date appearance and its ever-growing skyline, which now em-braces on the newer structures five skyscrapers ranging from nine to eleven stories in height. Orlando also prides itself on having the largest and most beautiful High School building in the State.
The city's thirty-five miles of brick-paved streets, including the boulevard white way park system, are lined with nature's largest and stateliest pines and oaks. The boulevard encircling in a most strikingly and beautiful manner fifteen picturesque clear water lakes. The parks are unexcelled, each velveted with grass and dotted with a beautiful lake amply shaded by oaks and magnolias, and all within a few minutes walk of the center of the city.
Orlando's charms are so varied and its beauties so general that no matter what one's in-clinations, there are delights and amusements for every taste---golf, tennis, fishing, hunting, swimming, boating, horseshoe pitching, bowling on the green, croquet, shuffle boards, rogue, gun clubs, band concerts, grand opera season, vaudeville, handsome theatres and motion picture houses, and most of which are in the sunshine.
Orlando is the county seat of Orange County and is located in the very heart of Florida's brick highway system, the heart of the citrus belt, the heart of the lake region of Central Florida and from every angle most progressive and promising, giving every indication of being a city of 30,000 by the year 1930.

Description
The historic marker for Lady Liberty at Seminole Big Tree Park in 2006. The "companion tree" for The Senator. Lady Liberty is 89 feet high, 10 feet in diameter, and approximately 2,000 years old.
Big Tree Park is located at 761 General Hutchinson Parkway in Longwood, Florida. The park lies off of U.S. 17-92, south of Sanford in a swampy, mainly undeveloped area. The park's focal points are two ancient and giant bald cypress trees. The largest is known as the Senator; the other is known as the Senator's Brother. The two trees are possibly named in honor of M. O. Overstreet, a Florida state senator who donated the surrounding land to Seminole County in 1951, although they had their current names as early as the 1920s. The trees were a popular tourist attraction from the 1880s onward.
In 1929, former President Calvin Coolidge and his wife, who were frequent visitors to Mt. Dora, visited the trees and dedicated them with a bronze plaque. The plaque was stolen in 1945. Both trees are extremely old and their age is typically given at 3,500 years. The Senator was believed to be the largest bald cypress in Florida; however, questions have been raised concerning the definition of "largest." It appears today that the Senator reigns as the cypress with the largest volume, the total amount of wood above ground. The current measurements may make it the largest bald cypress in the United States. As of 2011, the tree's height has been measured around 118 feet tall. It has been said that prior to the 1928 hurricane, it stood as tall as 160 feet. The Senator was destroyed by fire on January 16, 2012.

Seminole County (Fla.)
Bald cypress
Description
Lady Liberty at Seminole Big Tree Park in 2006. The "companion tree" for The Senator. Lady Liberty is 89 feet high, 10 feet in diameter, and approximately 2,000 years old.
Big Tree Park is located at 761 General Hutchinson Parkway in Longwood, Florida. The park lies off of U.S. 17-92, south of Sanford in a swampy, mainly undeveloped area. The park's focal points are two ancient and giant bald cypress trees. The largest is known as the Senator; the other is known as the Senator's Brother. The two trees are possibly named in honor of M. O. Overstreet, a Florida state senator who donated the surrounding land to Seminole County in 1951, although they had their current names as early as the 1920s. The trees were a popular tourist attraction from the 1880s onward.
In 1929, former President Calvin Coolidge and his wife, who were frequent visitors to Mt. Dora, visited the trees and dedicated them with a bronze plaque. The plaque was stolen in 1945. Both trees are extremely old and their age is typically given at 3,500 years. The Senator was believed to be the largest bald cypress in Florida; however, questions have been raised concerning the definition of "largest." It appears today that the Senator reigns as the cypress with the largest volume, the total amount of wood above ground. The current measurements may make it the largest bald cypress in the United States. As of 2011, the tree's height has been measured around 118 feet tall. It has been said that prior to the 1928 hurricane, it stood as tall as 160 feet. The Senator was destroyed by fire on January 16, 2012.

Description
Booklet about the Bok Tower Gardens published in 1950. Edward Bok retired to the town of Lake Wales, Florida. Bok set out a plan to establish a natural garden and bird sanctuary where people to visit to quietly enjoy nature.He engaged Frederick Law Olmstead, Jr. to design the grounds and asked architect Milton B. Medary to design and build a carillon tower. Lee Lawrie, a noted sculptor from New York, designed the elaborate marble sculpture that adorns the tower. Work was completed in 1928 and, on February 1, 1929, President Calvin Coolidge dedicated the sanctuary. Edward Bok died less than a year later in 1930 and was buried at the foot of the tower.
The tower and the carillon housed inside is Bok Tower Gardens' most distinctive feature. The carillon consists of sixty bells, ranging in size from 16 pounds to just under 12 tons. The bells are played like an organ with the keys connected to the clappers of each bell. Bok Tower has had only three regular carillonneurs in its more than 70 years. The sanctuary's first carillonneur was Anton Brees, serving as the only carillonneur from 1928 until 1967. Milford Myhre has been the resident carillonneur since 1968. William De Turk has been the assistant carillonneur since 1993. De Turk is also the librarian of the Anton Brees Carillon Library, which is reportedly the largest and most comprehensive carillon library in the world.

by CALVIN COOLIDGE
President of the United States
February the First
MCMXXIX
Make you the world a bit better or more beautiful because you have lived in it.
A PERSONAL FOREWORD
The inspiration for the Sanctuary and the Tower came of that stuff of which dreams are made. The two combined a dream ti carry on the work of my grandfather, who a hundred years ago transformed a grim desert island in the North Sea, ten miles from the Netherlands mainland, into a bower of green verdure and trees to which came the birds which made the island famed.
But an inspiration is of little value if it is not carried into realization, and I was fortunate to enlist the deep interest and sympathetic cooperation of two men who are responsible for what the visitor sees: Frederick Law Olmsted for the Sanctuary and Milton B. Medary for the Tower. Naturally, I could not have obtained two men more thoroughly fitted to give me what I wanted to present to the American people for visitation, and what has been so often called "The Taj Mahal of America"--a spot which would reach out in its beauty through the plantings, through the flowers, through the birds, through the superbly beautiful architecture of the Tower, through the music of the bells, to the people and fill their souls with the quiet, the repose, the influence of the beautiful, as they could see and enjoy it in the Sanctuary and through the Tower.
An incidentally it gave me a wonderful opportunity to follow and carry out the injunction of my grandmother to her children and grandchildren: "Wherever your lives may be cast, make you the world a bit better or more beautiful because you have lived in it."
That is the basis upon which the Sanctuary and the Tower rests.

Description
Brochure, produced in 1951, promoting the Silver Springs' attracting "The Bridal Chamber". The brochure also shows a map of Florida showing pre-Interstate highway roads as several other Florida roadside attractions. Silver Springs was originally settled by the Timucuans in the early 1500s. Although they were able to reclaim their territory after Spanish invasion, the Timucuans were ultimately succeeded by other tribes, such as the Seminoles. In the 1850s, Silver Springs began to attract tourists for steamboat rides. The park's popularity skyrocketed when the glass-bottom boat was invented in 1878.

Silver Springs (Fla.)

Description
Brochure produced in 1959, promoting Silver Springs, Florida. It also shows a map of Florida showing pre-Interstate system roads as several other Florida roadside attractions. Silver Springs was originally settled by the Timucuans in the early 1500s. Although they were able to reclaim their territory after Spanish invasion, the Timucuans were ultimately succeeded by other tribes, such as the Seminoles. In the 1850s, Silver Springs began to attract tourists for steamboat rides. The park's popularity skyrocketed when the glass-bottom boat was invented in 1878.

Description
An Army Air Forces menu created for the Christmas of 1943. The cover shows Santa Claus piloting an airplane over an airbase. There are illustrations of a decorated Christmas tree, a palm tree and what appears to be orange trees. The interior has a Christmas note from Hume Peabody, Brigadier General of the U.S. Army who was Commanding General of the Army Air Force Tactical Center.
Although Japan and China were already engaged war since 1937, September 1, 1939 is generally considered the beginning date of World War II. It was on this day that Nazi leader Adolf Hitler invaded Poland, inciting France and the United Kingdom to declare war on Germany. Through the course of the war, belligerents were general divided into two groups: the Allied Powers, consisting of the United Kingdom, France, the Soviet Union, China, Poland, Canada, Australia, India, Yugoslavia, Greece, the Netherlands, Belgium, South Africa, New Zealand, Norway, Czechoslovakia, Ethiopia, Brazil, Denmark, Luxembourg, Cuba, Mexico, the Philippines, Mongolia, and Iran; and the Axis Powers, consisting of Germany, Japan, Italy, Hingary, Romania, and Bulgaria. The United States did not join the Allies until the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor on December 7, 1941. War was waged for several years. On May 8, 1945, Germany surrendered to Soviet and Polish troops in response to the capture of Berlin just a few days earlier, in effect ending the war in Europe. The war in the Pacific theater did not end until Japan surrended on August 15, 1945, in response to the atomic attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
World War II transformed the globe's geopolitical context. The United Nations (UN) was established and the United States and Soviet Union emrged as opposing superpowers, setting the stage for the 46-year long Cold War. Much of Europe was left in economic collapse and decolonization began in Asia and Africa.

Description
Brochure on the San Juan Hotel, one of the oldest hotels in Downtown Orlando, Florida. The brochure showcases that activities for tourists in Orlando Florida, as well as the luxury of the San Juan. The brochure was published around 1955.
The San Juan de Ulloa Hotel, located at 32 North Orange Avenue in Orlando, Florida. The building was constructed from 1885 to 1886 by Captain C. E. Pierce at an initial cost of $150,000. The original owner was Henry S. Kedney, who moved from Minnesota to Maitland in 1870 and then to Orlando in 1885. The initial building was a three-story, wood-framed building topped with a dome. In 1887, Harry L. Beeman moved to Orlando and bought the San Juan Hotel. He added two stories and a new addition for $500,000 around 1900. From 1890 to 1900, it alsohoused Orlando's Post Office. In 1903, Beeman added a veranda on the north side. In 1914, Henry Green took charge of $20,000 in alterations, including the addition of a laundry room, twelve private baths, and the conversion of the barbershop into a café. In the spring of 1922, Turner Construction Company added an additional eight stories at a cost of $357,000. In May 1928, there was a plan to spend $150,000 to rebuild it along modern lines but it is not known if this was carried out or to what extent.
The hotel also housed a series of services for hotel guests and Orlando residents alike. Among these were several restaurants, a barbershop, and a laundry. The San Juan was the main focal point for activity in Orlando in the early years, but the hotel hit hard times in the 1960s and was re-opened as the Grand Central Hotel, which opened on October 6, 1978. The Grand Central served a gay clientele, featuring several themed bars and lounges. In 1979, the hotel was destroyed by fire. The building was eventually demolished in 1981. The current use of site is a business office originally known as the First Union Bank Tower. It is a sixteen-story, 300,000-square foot building, completed in 1983.

SAN JUAN HOTEL
"The City Beautiful"
For the spectator or the participant, the SAN JUAN is the center of an area offering a wide variety of activity, only part of which is pictured.
SAN JUAN HOTEL
ORLANDO, FLORIDA
"The City Beautiful"
The San Juan-- a modern, completely appointed hotel of 250 rooms, each with bath, more than half of which are AIR-CONDITIONDE. Located in the center of beautiful Orlando in the midst of stores, restaurants and theatres and yet only a few minutes walk from lovely lakes and parks. Its spacious lobby and mezzanine lounge offers rest and quiet, a delightful place to relax. A trained staff, most of whom have been here for many years, will help make your visit a comfortable one. Modern in appointments, old in years, mellowed by tradition and steeped in courtesy, the SAN JUAN offers you a warm and sincere welcome. A friendly atmosphere and a spirit of helpfulness will make your visit of a day, a month or a season a pleasant and memorable one.

ALL FLORIDA MOVES TO, THROUGH AND AROUND ORLANDO
ORLANDO. . . Florida's City Beautiful
Located in one of the most beautiful sections of Florida and almost in the exact center of the State, Orlando is ideal as a headquarters for the visitor who wants to be within less than a day's travel of nearly every scenic attraction to be found in Florida.
Within a few hours drive from Orlando are such attractions as famed Silver Springs at Ocala; Cypress Gardens, located in the heart of Central Florida's "ridge" section citrus belt; Marineland, nationally known as the world's only Oceanarium; the Everglades National Park and a score of other scenic wonders which have brought Florida fame as a nature's "wonderland".
For those who are looking for a "home" during their visit to Florida, Orlando offers a vast variety of attractions and accommodations to match every income. Ranging from palatial winter residences to modest cottages and from trailer camps to the most luxurious hotels, Orlando can meet your living needs.
For entertainment, too, throughout the winter season, Orlando has fitted its offerings to every taste.
For those who love sports, there is golf on several of the State's most beautiful courses, nightly dog racing at the nearby track, boating and fishing on and in many if the 43 lakes wholly or partially within the city limits, harness racing on the city's new and beautiful Ben White Speedway at Lake Fairview Park, horse back riding, shuffleboard, lawn bowling and a score of other sports available throughout the winter, Each winter, Orlando is the scene of many outstanding tennis matches featuring world champions. Orlando has been the scene of famed $10,000 Open Golf Tournaments that attract the nation's top flight golfers here for play and orlando's native PeeWee Golf Championship Tournament has attracted boys and girls from three to twelve years old from every section of the country to vie for the nation's PeeWee golf crown. Baseball, too, is a top attraction with the Washington Senators, playing "out-of-season" games throughout the winter with other big league teams training in Florida.
On the cultural side of the picture, Orlando, each year offers outstanding band concerts, plays, special winter tourist entertainment, and lectures. Each year Rollins College presents its famed "Animated Magazine" to thousands of winter visitors. There are many beautiful churches of every denomination available and schools are open to the children of Orlando's visitors.

Dear Mr. Harold Esch:
I am very interested to hear you are compiling a book on Lawn Bowling for circulation in the United States of America, and I feel sure it will be received with much pleasure by all those who take part in the game in your great Country.
During the visit of the British Team (of which I had the honour of being Captain) last year, I was delighted to be informed of the steady growth of the game of Lawn Bowling in America. As I said on many occasions during that memorable Tour, I am confident that before many years have elapsed the Game will be as popular in the United States as it is in the British Isles and the Dominions.
My best wishes go with you in the arduous task you have so cheerfully undertaken.
Yours sincerely,
Ivor B. Thomas
President International Bowling Board
Milwaukee, Wis.
October 20, 1948
My Dear Harold:
I am glad you are publishing a new book on Lawn Bowling from the American standpoint. It is very much needed and should be in the hands of every lawn bowler, especially new members. It will greatly promote the game and I wish you abundant success in this labor of love.
Sincerely yours,
Emmet L. Richardson

Description
Brochure for Weeki Wachee produced in the mid-1950s. Weeki Wachee features performances by underwater mermaids, a glass-bottom boat ride, and other natural attractions. The springs are named after the Seminole words for "little spring" or "winding river." In 1946, former U.S. Navy member Newton Perry began to develop a tourist attraction at Weeki Wachee. By the 1950s, Weeki Wachee was one of the top tourist stops in the United States. The American Broadcasting Company (ABC) purchased the site in 1959 and continued to expand. In 2008, Weeki Wachee was taken over by the state of Florida as a state park.

Description
Cypress Gardens Booklet from the 1950s that includes information on plants, Cypress Gardens' water-ski show, and motion pictures filmed at Cypress Gardens. Billed as Florida's first commercial tourist theme park, Cypress Gardens opened on January 2, 1936 as a botanical garden planted by Dick Pope Sr. and his wife Julie. Over the years, it became one of the biggest attractions in Florida, known for its water ski shows, lush gardens, and Southern Belles. It became known as the "Water Ski Capital of the World" because many of the sport's landmark firsts and the over 50 world records broken there. Numerous motion pictures were filmed at the Cypress Gardens, including portions of <em>This is Cinerama</em>, the first feature filmed in the wide-screen format, as well as a string of Esther Williams films and television specials in the 1950s and 1960s. In the 1950s, young women dressed in the crinolines reminiscent of the Antebellum South. During the American Civil War Centennial, young men dressed in Confederate uniforms would be photographed with the Southern Belles. With the addition of a custom photography boat named Miss Cover Girl in the early 1960s, the park became a popular site for the filming of television commercials. However, Cypress Gardens closed in 2009. Legoland occupies the former lot.

Description
Cypress Gardens booklet from the 1950s that includes information on plants, Cypress Gardens' water-ski show, and motion pictures filmed at Cypress Gardens. Billed as Florida's first commercial tourist theme park, Cypress Gardens opened on January 2, 1936 as a botanical garden planted by Dick Pope, Sr. and his wife, Julie. Over the years, it became one of the biggest attractions in Florida, known for its water ski shows, lush gardens, and Southern Belles. It became known as the "Water Ski Capital of the World" because many of the sport's landmark firsts and the over 50 world records broken there. Numerous motion pictures were filmed at the Cypress Gardens, including portions of <em>This is Cinerama</em>, the first feature filmed in the wide-screen format, as well as a string of Esther Williams films and television specials in the 1950s and 1960s. In the 1950s, young women dressed in the crinolines reminiscent of the Antebellum South. During the American Civil War Centennial, young men dressed in Confederate uniforms would be photographed with the Southern Belles. With the addition of a custom photography boat named <em>Miss Cover Girl</em> in the early 1960s, the park became a popular site for the filming of television commercials. Cypress Gardens closed in 2009. Legoland occupies the former lot.

____________________________________________________________________________________________
SPORTS
The basketball game between the girls of Cherokee and Memorial resulted in Cherokee, represented by 9-2 winning by a score of 19 to 8. This is the second victory by this same team this year.
____________
The seventh grade girls who play nine square basketball had quite ra hard time to determine the winner. 7-3 finaly [sic] succeeded in defeated all other seventh grade teams.
8-3 was declared winner of the eighth grade. 8-2 and 8-6 came in second in this tournament.
In the ninth grade, it was quite difficult to determine the winner. Eliminative tournaments, however, resulted thus: 9-3 third place; 9.1 second; 9-2 first. 9-2 then defeated the winning eighth grade team, won the title of school champions, and repreeented[sic] the school against Memorial where they again met with victory.
____________
9.4, 8-1 and 7-1 were the winning team in boy's basketball in the respective grades for the season.
The ninth grade contest was quite a spirited one. In the finals, nine four, six and three seemed almost equally matched. 9-3 was eliminated first, by receiving defeats from both 9-6 and 9-4. 9-6 then played 9.4, the latter winning. As 9-6 was ahead in the number of victories, they had to play 9-4 again but again were defeated.
9-4 then defeated the 8-1 team.
This victory meant that 9-4 boys were the school champions and that they were entitled to represent Cherokee against Memorial-

HUMOR
Friend,
Drop a tear here for
Jack Kline
Whose spirit is with
The subline.
He thought he'd get through
Ere the train did.
It's true That Jack made it-------
But not quite in time.
CHEROKEE GIRLS WIN
The basketball game between the girls of Cherokee and Memoral[sic] resnlted[sic] in Cherokee, represented by 9-2, winning by a score of 19 to 8. This is the second victory by this same team this year. They were also volleyball champions at Cherokee and in the Chero-Memo basketball game.
The line-up of Cherokee girls was as follows:
Forward Evedna Murrah
Forward Mildred Wade
Guard Virginia Bogenrief
Guard Irene Caldwell
Running Center Helen Arendt
Jumping Center Barbara Parker
Cherokee boys seem to have a hard time defeating the Memorial team, and Memorial girls seem to have a hard time defeating the Cherokee team.
The basketball game played last Friday between the boys of the two sbhools[sic] resulted in Memorial winning, a score of 23 to 17. The score was as follows.

EDITORIALS
Several weeks ago we published an appeal to the students of Cherokee in regards to the increased tendency to misuse our building. We hoped that certain evidences of carlessness[sic], in the form of pencil markind[sic] on the walls, eraser dust on the building, scratching on the desks, etc., would decrease; but they seem to re-ppeare[sic] as steadily as removed.
We are fortunate to possess one of the most modern and up-to-date buildings in the state of Florida but we soon will not be able to make this boast if the present rate of vandalism continues. Since we have such a modern building, visitors from all sections of the country are constantly stopping to inspect it and we do not want them to carry away an unfavorable impression of Cherokee.
Each of us as a student Cherokee has a definite feeling of pride wheu[sic] we compare this building with others of the city and state. Let us keep this pride intact for ourselves aud[sic] for future stndents of Cherokee by preserving the equitment[sic] place at our disposal.
CALENDAR OF EVENTS
Calender[sic] Of Events
March 27: Auditorum[sic] program, 8-5
March 29: Play, “Mother Carey's Chickens, Cherokee auditorum[sic], 8 p.m.
A Gentle Reminder
Mr. Thompson has asked that it be announced that when the school year comes to a close, grade cards will be withheld from all pupils who have not met with all tardy obligations. These pupils will be required to take entrance examinations next fall in all major subjects. Other points must also be met, if report cards are received classes must be kept up to date, shop and home economic bills must be paid, library books must be returned, all obligations must be met.
EXCHANGE
We ara[sic] pleased to acknowledge receiving an issue of the “Red and Black” published by the Hilsborough[sic] High School of Tampa. This paper is a member of the National Scholastic Press Association.
Two interesting exchanges are the “Pioneer” and the “Wilson Broadcast. er. "The Broadcaster" is published by the Woodrow Wilson Junior High School, Tampa, Florida.
"The Pioneer” comes from Denver High at Albany, New York. The make-up of this paper is unusually attractive. We are glad to have such distant exchanges.

The Cher-O-Key
Published Bi-Weekly by the Journalism Club of Cherokee Junior High School.
Vol.1, No. 7 March 8, 1929 One Cent
CHEROKEE WINS HONORS
Cherokee returned with flying colors from the school exhibits at the Central Florida Exposition. The school distinguished itself by winning 100 ribbons, a notable honor in itself, and additional honors came, however, when the school was presented five dollars for having the best all-round art exhibit on display.
The ribbons won by the various department of the school were as follows.
In athletics, the boys took eight first places and one third; girls took five first places and one third,
In manual arts, three first ribbons and two second,
In practical arts, five first places and four second.
In home economics, eight first and seven second places.
In the printing department, two first places, Cherokee was judged to have the best printing exhibit of any school.
In the art department twenty eight first places and twenty six second.
9-5 AND 9-3 DEBATE
An interesting match of wits between 9-5 and 9-3 debating teams took place at Auditorium period Wednesday, March 6. The weighty question under discussion was "Resolved that the cafeteria is more important to the school than the library." The affirmative was upheld by Shan Kazarosian, Creola Keith and Sammie Bethea of 9-3; the negative by Ed Blankner, Clinton Minter and Gloria White of 9-5. The judges decided by a 2 to 1 vote in favor of the library.
NEW PICTURE FILE IN LIBRARY
Some valuable new additions have been made in our library. Mrs Meyer has recently completed a new file, which consists of collection of pictures. The pictures include prints of the masterpieces of paintings from all countries, pictures of historical scenes, of American and British authors, of homes, of famous men, of musicians. etc. These pictures will be invaluable as illustrative material in many departments. They can be removed from the file by teachers only.
The Cher-O-Key
______________________________________________________________________________
SPORTS
Mr. Meyer appeared on the auditorium program Wednesday, February 27, for the major purpose of showing the students the new General Sports Trophy. This trophy will be presented to the junior high school in Orlando which, at the end of the school year, has won the greatest number of interschool contests. It is thus an award to the school who excells in skill and in strengh in the major sports. The trophy will be presented for the first time at the end of the year, and will be awarded for the next ten years.
The trophy is in the shape of a shield, fashioned of bronze with a background of walnut, and having large copper plates which illustrate the major sports of basketball, baseball tennis, swimming, soccer and volleyball.
There are also ten smaller plates whereon may be engraved each year for ten years the name of the junior high school winning the trophy.
_____________
The first interschool contest of the year will be a doubleheader basketball game between Memorial and Cherokee on March 15. Both boys and girls' teams will play at this time. The teams can do better playing with our support. Let's be there in a body, root for our team and have eye on that trophy.
_____________
March 15 is the date
Come early, and don't be late.
Memorial vs. Cherokee
A fast game is what you'll see.
Team! Cherokee is counting on you.
_____________
Your presence at the Cherokee
Memorial game will boost our team to victory.
HUMOR
Harry Price: What did I learn in school to-day, Miss Wayland?
Miss Wayland: Why do you ask, Наггу?
Harry: They'll want to know at home.
___________
Miss Brown: Why did George Washington throw the dollar across the Potomac River, Robert?
Robert Lanter: To teach his Scotch soldiers to swim.
___________
Mrs. Meyer: Margaret, how could you tell Hazel she is stupid? Go tell her you are sorry, Margaret Russell: Please, Hazel, I am sorry you are stupid.
___________
Bee careful
You never hear the bee complain,
Nor hear it weep and wail,
But if it wish it can unfold,
A very painful tail.---Goblin.
___________
It Just Can't Be!
A Scotchman was leaving on a business trip, and he called back as he was leaving.
"Goodbye all, and dinna forget to tak'little Donal's glasses off when he isna lookin, at anything."---FX.
___________
Exacting Lady: "I want you to send me over a ton of coal that hasn't any ash or clinkers—and without that sulphurous smell."
Coal Dealer: Lady, you don't want a ton of coal. You want to get connected with a gas meter.”---Ex.
___________
It will be appreciated if students who have suitable pictures will bring them to the librarian, who will mount them and place them on file. In this way the file can be made more nearly complete.
There are also newspaper racks and shelves for professional Magazines which are recent acquisitions to the library.
HI-Y-ENTERTAINS
The Hi-Y club of Cherokee put on a very clever and impressive program in auditorium on February 27. Several successive tableaux were shown purporting to portray the relation that should exist between father and son. Burwell Howard acted as interlocutor.
The Hi-y club is composed of many outstanding boys in the school, the aims of the club being to create friendship among students, to build leadership and character and to maintain a clean Christian spirit. The club under the leadership of Mr. Thompson is doing very illuminative work.

EDITORIALS
March, the "windy month" that ushers in the spring, is here, Its name, which has come down from ancient times, was given in honor of the war god Mars. The vernal equinox, which marks the beginning of spring, falls on the twenty-first, and the month is thus partly winter and spring. How many of us in Florida would agree that March is partly a winter month?
There have been a number of superstititions connected with March, quite without foundation. One, which is still quoted, concerns the weather. "If March comes in like a lion," the saying is, “it will go out like a lamb; If, on the other hind, the first dry on March is balmy and "lamblike," the last day is certain to be stormy. An other old saying declares that the last three days are borrowed from April, while a third calls the first three "blind day" and declares them to be unlucky. It is not so very long ago that farmers held so firmly to this belief that they would not plant seeds on those days.
The special gem of the month is the bloodstone, and the special flower, the violet.
CALENDAR OF EVENTS
March 7–8 Operetta, "The Wishing Well". Memorial Junior High Auditorium. 8:00 P. M.
March 15, Doubleheader basketball game. Memorial vs. Cherokee. Let's go Cherokee!
March 14-15, Play "The Lottery Man.” Senior High School Auditorium.
EXCHANGE
The staff of the "Cher-O-Key" has long wished to pay tribute to the "Memorial Echo,” published by students of the Memorial Junior High School. We appreciate also the publicity it has given to activities at Cherokee.
The "Cher-O-Key" also exchanges with the Ocala Junior High School, whose students publish a live page mimeographed paper. We like the cuts and cartoons which adorn every page.
We have enjoyed looking over "The Pennant”, published by the Lebanon, Indiana, high school. “The Pennant" is a full sized newspaper with one section devoted to junior high school
THE LIMERICK
Thelma Jones, of section 7-2, won the limerick contest sponsored by the "Cher-O-Key" and will receive a copy of each issue free. The winning limerick goes thus:
We should take the Cher-O-Key;
This paper is the school's, you see.
It I must support
And be a good sport
Then the greatest paper will be from
Cherokee.

Food Settles the Question
__________
Just before the war between the States two negroes who lived on a rich plantation in West Virginia, a state uncertain whether to pull away rrom the Union or not, were heard in the following conversation.
"Rastus, Ise gwin to tell yo de fragments ob ny min”. Ise been thinkin ober dis here question ob slavery what de Marsa's done been conversation and aw thinks aw sides wid de Union. Aw don believe de states has de right to disjine."
Rastus, who had been standing in the background, then spoke up.
"Mose, nigger, you am entirely wrong. Ise sided wid disjining from de Union as ma Marsa done done and aw thinks if anybody done go and do de right thing Old Marse sho will do it. If dese here states what am hot wid de questions wants to disjine, and, nigger, I disjine wid im for I sides wid ma master”.
“Rastus, Iubs my massa, but dis here nigger sides for a good Union. I has been under Marsa as slave for years, - well, dat is since I was a boy, and Ise tired of bein bossed aгound, I wants to be free to do what I wants, and lib like I wants to
Rastus than said: “Mose, we two niggers am growing old an grey. We aint gwine to last much longer but I tells you what we'll do."
Instead of continuing the argument the two negroes fell two their knees.
"Mose, you can lead in prayar and ask the dear Lawd to help and forgive dese two sinful niggers."
Rastus began; "Dear Lawd, what done gone and delivered us out of de land of Canaan and de land of de Jordan, Help dese two niggers what am hot on de question of slavery. Settle our mistaken minds. Amen."
Just then from out of the distance came the sound of the supper gong ringing.
Rastus jumped up on his old weak legs and shouted: "Yan can dan argue all yo wants to, nigger, Aw guess you wins for when aw hears dat peal from de distance I gets awful greeable.

The Cher-O-Key
Published Bi-Weekly by the Journalism Club of Cherokee Junior High School
Vol. I, No. 6 February, 21, 1929 One Cent
Joe Bird Elected President
Election day proved intensely interesting at Cherokee last week. The three candidates who were introduced in auditorium on Wednesday, Feb. 6, were of equal merit and consequently competion and excitement ran high throughout the day. The candidates were each announced by a student sponsor. Betty Meyer introduced Betty Trimble, Sammie Bethea introduced Richard Lawson, and Bob Gisler told us of Joe Bird's particular merits. Each gave a short speech, urging the votes of the students for one particular person.
Balloting revealed that Joe Bird, of section 8-5, was the choice of the students. Everyone feels that the students have selected wisely and that Joe will live up to the standard set by the past presidents.
7-1 Entertains
Section 7 report a very interesting program for February 5. The committee who gave the program were Myer Sigal, chairman, Richard Ezzard and Robert Gisler. The first number on the program was “La Cinder", a selection on the piano by Beulah Laverty, “The Novelty Waltz," a piano solo was given by Fred Mauer. The last number was a one act play given by Myer Sigal and Richard Ezzard.
Bobby Denney: No girl ever made a fool out of me.
Roland Parker; Well, who did then?
Miss Freeman Visits school
Through the courtesy of the Orlando, Ice Dealers Association, Cherokee students were fortunate in hearing Miss Freeman speak last week on the subject "Refrigeration." In her talk, she pointed out the benefits of a good ice-box and how food is affected when kept in a poor one. Some of the point which Miss Freeman stressed in her lecture were that a refrigerator should have good circulation, that food could not be preserved at a temperature over 60 degrees fahrenheit, that an ice box should be washed with cold water rather that warm, and that food should never be set out of the ice box very long. In the course of her lecture she pointed out that foods having a smell, such as cheese, should be kept on the top shelf of the ice box, so as not to transfer it to the other foods.
This information was gladly received and greatly enjoyed by the students and teachers.
Mr. Westover Enjoyed
The students had a great time while Mr. Westower entertained with some very clever stunts and tricks in auditorium, Wednesday, February 6, Mr. Westower came to Cherokee last year and is a great favorite with everyone Cherokee is eagerly anticipating his next visit.
Pictures of Mount Vernon and Washington, D.C. adorn the bulletin board in honor of our famous presidents, Washington and Lincoln, whose birthdays are this month. This was a project of the Student Council of last semester.

Indian Summer
A silken curtain skies,
And half conceals from pensive eyes
The bronzing tokens of the tall; A calmness broods upon the hills,
And summer's parting dream distils
A charm of silence over all.
The stacks of corn, in brown array,
Stand waiting through the tranquil
day, Like tattered wigwams on the plain; The tribes that find a shelter there
Are phantom peoples, forms of air,
And ghosts of vanishing joy pain.
At evening when the crimson crest
Of sunset passes down the West,
I hear the whispering host returning
On far off-fields, by elm and oak. I see the lights, I smell the smoke, ---
The Camp-fires of the Past are burning.

Cher-O-Key Sponsors Contest
Harken one Harken all! The Cher-O-Kay is sponsoring a contest. This is absolutely something new in the line of a contest at Cherokee, The idea originated with the journalism club when the members were madely writing verse—or worse—to fill up the columns of the paper. Limerick writing became the rage in one short period.
The club wants the students to join in the spirit of the hour. The person writing the best limerick involving the idea of Cherokee and "The Cher-O-Key" will receive an issue of every Cher-C-Key free until June. The contest is on.
Limericks may be submitted to room to; for a period of one week, ending Friday, March 1st. The winner will be announced in the next issue of the Cher-O-Key.
We submit the following limerick as an example of our art:
We now have a president Bird;
They say he's the very “last word"
He's short but he's smart,
Campaigns with art,
He's Cherokee's president the third.

EDITORIALS
It has been brought to the attention of the administrative board at Cherokee that students have become careless in their use of the property of other people. This building, and its equipment, which is a monument to education in our city, has been given to all of us, not to any one of us.
Nor is it ours alone, but it also belongs in part to the students who will follow us when we are in higher Institutions of learning.
Will our future citizens at Cherokee wish to enter a defaced building, whose walls have been marted with pencils, whose exterior still bears the sign of dusty erasers, and whose desks are scratched and marred? These questions we should consider seriously when we feel inclined to make numerous little destructions that seem a part of our nature.
Decidely we have the most beautiful building in the city. Let us strive to keep it “The School Beautiful" in its picturesque setting "The City Beautiful"
___________
Many interesting exhibits have been put on by the schools of Orlando at the Fair Grounds, Let s visit these on our holiday Friday
The new staff of the "Cher-o-key" will be announced in the next edition. Watch for it!

Editorials
Students, what does a new semester mean to you? Merely that half a year is over and the thoughts that examinations are things of the past? Or does it also imply a new beginning a time when we should reflect upon our past weaknesses and then turn with courage and determination toward the future?
In the most real sense, the “New Year” for Cherokee began Monday, January 28, we should be grateful for what the coming semester has in store for us, for many good things have been coming our way—a new curtain for the auditorium, a projection lantern for our very own use, new books for the library, awards and prizes of major and minor significance.
Shall we live up to the opportunities thus afforded us? This is what the new semester spells most distinctly— opportunity. Let us then, with firm resolution, seek to strive and do and know, “forgeting the things which are behind and reaching unto those things which are before.
The Mythology Club, of which Mr. Lewis is sponsor, has been reading old Greek and Latin stories and are now reading Scandinavian tales.

100 Books Rebound
The Bookbinding Department of Cherokee Junior High School has recently returned to the Library over ico volumes of books which have been re-bound this year and made as good as new. In addition to the rebinding the department is equipped to label with gold letters these books so that a complete and usable book is put back on the shelves in place of those badly worn or completely dilapidated.
Splendid board back magazine covers with leather laces are made in the binding also. It is estimated that the work of the department including the bindery of the yearly issues several of the best magazines saves the school several hundred dollars each year in addition to the educational and vocational training afforded scores of boys and girls of the community. Our Junior High Schools are among the few of the state to offer such a course and we feel particularly proud of the splendid record established by the high grade work produced.
Miss Bernice C. Datson who has had special training in Colorado State Teacher's college under one of the greatest authorities in the country in this line of work has charge of the Cherokee Bindery Department.
The librarian, Mrs. Meyer, especially appreciates the work of this book bindery since it enables her to keep the shelves meat and attractive with well bound books at all times.
Club News
Expression Club Gives Plays
The Expression Club has had many good plays this year. “His Methodist Foot", and “Kill or Cure”, “The Unexpected Guest,” and “That Troublesome xmas Gift" are some that have been given.

The characters were: The Kid, Sammie Bethea; the Englishman, Harry Price; the Nut, virgil Bankston; the man, Allen Hage; the Sheriff, Jim Siemons. The play centered around the theme of hobo experiences, which were quite diversified. including both robberies and love at fairs. This was voted by the club as one of the best plays of the year.

The Cher-O-Key
Sports
Memorial defeated Cherokee at soccer last Friday in the first of a series or inter-school games, by a margin of 4 to 1. Cherokee was handicapped in that three of her team were ineligible and she played six men against Memorial's nine. However, the game was played in good spirit between the two schools, and Cherokee commends the spirit of her team.

Billie. All right. Goodby.
(He walks swiftly from the stage.)
Several minutes later he returns.
Billie: Betty! Betty! See. I've sold a my papers.
Betty: Yes, but let's stay here tonight. I'm too cold to move, and somehow it's more cheerful than the attic. (They sit down and go to sleep with their arms around each other. A soft voice is heard singing a Christmas carol. Christmas Spirit enters.)
Christmas Spirit: poor children. Tonight will be the last night they will be in earthly pain.
(The children open their eyes.)
Betty and Billie: Mother--- We hear you calling to us. What a glorious Christmas it's going to be; (They lie back with closed eyes, while the angel glides softly from the stage singing a coral.)

Merry Xmas
“Once in a Blue Moon" to be Presented Tonight
It's here! The great musical event of the season will be staged tonight. Students have heard “Once in a Blue Moon" discussed so much that they will not want to miss the chance of seeing it.
Those who have witnessed preliminary performances bear reports of a delightful entertainment, brim full of comedy, sparkling with romance, tingling with mystery, which is interspersed with brilliant choruses and solos. The setting is said to be both gorgeous and picturesque.
[Illegible] ters around the theme of a young man, George Taylor, who substitutes for a college friend of his at a week-end party. While there, he falls in love with Silvia, his chum's boyhood sweetheart. One night during a dance a robery [sic] takes place. Suspicion turned on George who is forced to disclose his identity. Things look dark for him until—well, the end is too good to disclose. Come and see it.
The all-star cast including such celebrities as Emily Hopkins, Mary Terhune, RobertaBarnett, Bina Joe Pickron, Jack Ferrell, [sic]
Christmas Seal Campaign
All over the United States there is being conducted the annual Christmas Seal Campaign, by the Red Cross. Last year Cherokee won the prize for selling the most seals of any school in Orange County. Students are hard at work again this year and Cherokee hopes to win again. The prize this time will be something amounting to sixty dollars, or perhaps that amount in cash, instead of the usual prize of a pair of scales.
Present indications show that we have a good chance to win again this year. At least, we hope to beat the record of $150, which we set last year.
Who’s Who
If you wish to know Who's Who? at Cherokee in scholarship, just glance over the following names. Ruth Lerch received all A's on her report card last time.
The following received A's and two or three Bs: Merrill Durgan, Helen McCreedy, Frances Slaughter, Dorothy Nye, Joe Bird, Betty Trimble, Winnifred Berst, Yulee Way, Bartara
Parker, Lncille Patton, Esther Hodeck.
Sixteen pupils received no grade less than a B; Clifford

Nearly two thousand years ago, on the first Christmas Eve, the holy Star of Bethlehem gleamed as the symbol of the sublime event in history watching and waiting that night those Three wise Men of the East had Faith in their hearts. Faith serene and invincible.
Every worthwhile human achievement since has been in some measure based upon Faith. The professional man, the captain of finance and industry, the artist,the craftsman at his task --all need Faith to carry on successfully.
Thus the true spirit of the Christmas Season is evidenced best by the expression of Faith in our fellow-men, and in the worthwhile things which have helped in our development.
Merry Christmas
(Edna Yacobian,7-7)
“Merry Christmas, everybody!"
Someone's yelling, feeling gay
“Santa's been to visit me,
Let's all be happy this day.”
“Look at your presents everyone”
And in your stocking too--
For if you had what I now have
You surely wouldn’t be blue.
Calendar of Events
Dec. 20 and Dec. 21: Operetta; “Once in a Blue Moon.” Cherokee auditorium, 8:00 P. M.
Dec. 21 Jan. 7: Christmas holidays.
7th Grade Makes Literature
Can Junior High School students makes literature? This is a question that challenges thought and has long been a topic of discussion by some of the leading educators of our land. In this issue, we offer you the literary efforts of some of our seventh grade students. Read them and decide this question for yourself. Surely you will agree with us that we have some potential authors, at least.
A Prayer
(Gloria white, 9-5 )
Lord, let me be a little kinder,
Let me be a little blinder
To the faults of my fellow students.
Let me praise a little more.
Let me be, when I am weary
Just a little bit more cheery,
Let me serve a little better
Dear old Cherokee.
When temptation bid me waver
Let me strive a little harder
To be all that I should be.
Let me think more of my neighbor
And a little less of me.
Be merry, folks, ‘cause Christmas comes
But only once a year,
And when it comes it brings us all
Gladness, joy and cheer."

Xmas Eve
Maxine Fugate section 7-7 Characters:
Billie: a little boy of Twilight Alley.
Betty: his sister. Christmas Spirit: the angel of Christmas,
Act 1.
Scene: a barren room in an attic. A box and an old blanket are its only contents.
At the right appear Betty and Billie.
Billie: I don't guess we'll have a very pleasant Christmas this year, Betty.
Betty: No, but I have you to take care of.
Billie. And I have you.
(By this time time Betty and Billie are seated side by side on the box.)
Betty: I tell you! Lets go out and sing some of those Christmas carols Miss Alice taught us!
Billie: Well-but what about my papers?
Betty: That's just it! We can sing as the people pass and maybe more people will buy a paper.
Billie: All right, we can try. Let's go.
Act 2
Scene: A windswept corner of the alloy. Betty and Billie are standing on the corner. Billie is trying to sell his papers to the few passers.
Billie: Nobody seems to want a paper.

What Would Happen?
If Mr. Tompson should fail to make an announcement in autitorium [sic]?
If Miss Jones should put her hair up?
If discipline cards should give out?

Mary's Child is Gently Sleeping
Maxime Fugate, 7-7
Mary's Child is gently sleeping.
Mary's kneeling by his side,
Joseph keeps watch by the doorway,
When within three wisemen glide.
As the wise men kneel before Him,
The Child's blue eyes open wide,
And, with a smile of wonderous [sic] beauty
He seems to bless those by His side,
As upon that Christmas evening,
The birth of our Christmas day.
The Christ Child will bless us forever,
And take our sins away.
Mary's Child is gently sleeping
In His Fathers home above,
But He is a Child no longer,
He's the Savior we all love.

NEW EQUIPMENT FOR OFFICE
The carpenters from the mainten¬ance shop hsve been at work building a new book shelf and storage cabinet on the west wail of the office. The book shelf will be used to hold alhavee hooks used in the office and also the new ones that publishers send uswallm time to time. In the cabinet will be placed the material used in the office, such as enrollment cards, assignment cards and other record. This promises to be a good addition to our office equipment and a great labor saver.
SECTION 7.7 MAKES
PRESENTATION
Last week during our assembly pe-riod, Edna Yacobian, in behalf of sec-tion 7.7 presented to Mr. Thompson two p7-7ed palms to grace the new cabinet that has recently been built in the office on the west wall. L7-7 year nearly every section in school made a useful presentation to the school. We hope that 7.7 has set a preced ent this year which the other classes will see fit to follow.
Roberta Barnett wins Prize
Cheschool-s glad to anno7-7e that Roberta Barnett 's essay on,"TheTeech in Relation to the General Health," which was chosen to represent Cher¬okee at Miami won first prize which was $5. Cherokon,"TheTeethto have a student who can do so well.
There will be two more issues of the Cher-O-Key brine Cilistmas. Watch out for them.
CHEROKEE GAINS IN
NUMBERS
During the past month Cherokee has gained three more pupils. There were fifteChristmas-ils who came to Cherokee during this time and twelve pupils have been transferred from Cherokee to other schools. The tfifteChristmas-ils grades as follows: seven¬th grade, 184 pupils; eighth grade, 164 pupils; ninth grade, 142 pupils, making a total cf 490. The average daily at¬tendance during the month was 450; this means that 94% of all the pupils enrolled attended school every day during last month. The number of girls was 3o per cent greater than the boys; there being almost a full section more of girls than boys.
ATTENTIONmonth-YBODY
The annual meeting of the Florida Educatioal Association will be held in Orlando on the Friday and Saturday after Thanksgiving. While the meet¬ings will not be held in Cherokee, the building will be open for inspection, since this is one of the most modern and up-to-date junior high schools in the state of Florida. We wish to make a plea to the students and teach¬ers to leave their rooms as clean and attractive as possible on leaving next Wednesday, so that we will make a favorable impression on the visiting teachers from all parts of the state.

"Goodness, I, have to take all of my books home this afternoon."
"So do I, that horrid Bobby Jones who sits right behind me insisted on tapping lightly on his desk all during study period, and it worried me so that I could not get my mind on my work.
"I did succeed in getting my math during study period today but as I was going through the corridors someone bumped against me so hard, that I drop ped my paper. Before I could pick it up, it had been trampled on by a dozen people."
"Such people who always interfere with the right of others are not generally liked, are they?"

JACK KLINE HAS A
BIRTHDAY PARTY
Jack Kline has had a birthday—and a party! And such a party as you
have never seen! You see, it was giv¬en to him by Student Council, and that organization has a way of doing things to perfection. So, of course, Jack Kline's birthday could not be passed by lightly. He was successfully trans-ported to Olivia Park under the camo¬flage of a weiner roast. Imagine Jack's surprise when he found out `twas all for him. Imagine his eyes growing round with wonder when a big brown frosted birthday cake was brought forth. But the wonder grew when he tried to cut the cake, for somehow it prooved too much of a struggle for Jack's delicate physique. After tug¬ging determinedly for a while, Jack grew snspicious. He scraped off the luscious looking icing and found—a wooden cake! Then, 'tis said, that Howard Davis made a grab for some of the icing, and discovered it was soap suds flavored with chocolate. After a good laugh at the joke, the Council brough forth a real birthday cake, and Jack's birthday was celedrated in an honest-to-goodnese way.

AN INDIAN LEGEND (Written Mr-the meter of Hiawatha by Lawson Cox, sectionMr-5.) Once three fair Indian maidens, Daughters of Chief Watosa, Wandered from their tribal village, Wandered far into the fores:.
So 7-5-)wandered, gathering flowers, Laughing gaily as they wandered, Miles away from their dominion, All unheeding of the disforest.
Suddenly from behind a boulder Rushed three hears, huge. ferocious, While with screams loud and piercing Fled the maidens with their flowers.
Then the maidens swiftly fleeing Saw a rock before them towering. Quickly climbed they to its summit; But the bears climbed, never pausing.
In despair the maidens halted,
Watched the bears come ever closer, Fell upon their knees in terror,
And t he spirits heard them pleading t'
When the bears neared the summit, Then the spirits showed t•wir power—Made the rocks swell, grow hher Till they towered o'er the tree tops.
Then the three bears in their climbing Weaker grew, their ever weaker, Till exhausted by their struggle Fell they on the rocks beneath them
So the maids with great rejoicing Made long ropes from their flowers. Holding to them, reached earth safely, Hastened to their tribal village.

The Cher-O-Key
Published Bi-Monthly by the Journalism Club of Cherokee Junior High School.
Vol. I, No. 1 November 9, 1928 One Cent
Mr. Grover Addresses Student Body.
Mr. Grover, Professor of books at Rollins college, returned to Cherokee Wednesday, Nov. 7, to address the subject of "Education." Mr. Grover was warmly received by the students as an old friend, for he addressed us last year on the subject of "Books."
In speaking of the importance of education to the success of the individual, Mr. Grover cited Herbert Hoo¬ver as an example. "Eighty per cent of the names in "Who's Who" have a college education," he said. "Every day in high school is worth $25 to each pupil, while a college education adds $55 a day to a person's value."
Mr. Grover then traced the growth of public school education in America, and pointed out its tendencies. A very interesting feature was a copy of an old New England primer and horn book used in the earliest American schools.
Percentages for First Period High.
Grades for the first six weeks of the school year have been averaged together and the following results were obtained: A's 8%, B's 28%, C's 39%, D's 14%, E's 5%. It will be noticed that more pupils received A's than E's. More pupils received B's than D's. Fewer people got C's than they ordinarily do. Usually the percentage of C's is about 44 %. This shows that a healthy condition exists, for most of the pupils are working hard
Journalism Club Reads Rare Papers
Jean Pettay, of section 9-2, recently brought several old papers to school which were of great interest to the Journalism Club. One was published at the time of Lincoln's death and gave a vivid account of the assassination. This edition also contains news of the Civil War.
Another is the New York Herald for April 25, 1856. This issue contains a variety of news, ranging from "most horrible murders" to "great balloon ascensions."
A most interesting copy is the Saturday Evening Post for June 16, 18¬28. It is in the form of a paper instead of a magazine. The print is very fine. A rather interesting and amusing part of the Post is a collection of very dry jokes relating to the experiences of theEarl of Marlborough. In 1828, it seems to take two paragraphs to tell what could be told in two lines in 1928.
7-1 Wins P T A Attendance
Picture
Section 7-I has for two consecutive months received the picture offered by the P T A to the section having the largest percentage of parents present at the monthly meeting of this organization. The seventh grade this year seems to be taking the lead in nearly all of our school activities. We wonder if the eight and ninth grades are going to accept the challenge offered by Cherokee's newest class?

ROBERTA BARNETT SUBMITS BEST ESSAY
Last week the Florida State Dental Association offered a prize of five dollars and a second prize of two dollars and a half to the ninth graders who were able to write the best compositions on the subject, "The Teeth in Relation to General Health." In Cherokee, the ninth grade students wrote their compositions under the direction of Mrs. Benton and Miss Mitchell, the English teachers. Roberta Barnett, of section 9-2, wrote the composition which was chosen to represent Cherokee; it was sent to the contest headquarters at Miami.
NEWS ITEMS
Ruth Wetherington of 9-3 and Shahan Kazarosian of 9-3 have made our art poster in the auditorium this year
Due to the fact that Harold Hughston captain of the sergeants, has moved from Orlando, it was necessary for the council to eiect a new one. Sammie Bethea was chosen by a unanimous vote.
The enrollment of the school year of 1928 has already increased from 450 in September to 495 at the present date. New pupils are entering almost daily and there is little doubt but that Cherokee will soon have as many as last year. Many of the sections are completely filled now.
Cherokee has already prepared a series of auditorium programs for the year, so we are assured of having some that are interesting, entertaining, and spicy. Good ones have already been put on by sections 9-1, 8-6, 7-1, and 9-6. The Girl's Glee Clud has also lent its aid, by presenting a one-act musical comedy.
SOCIETY AT CHEROKEE
The fall season has been a very busy social time for the Cherokee students. Nearly every section has already engaged in some sort of social activity during the past seven weeks. Parties have been enjoyed by twelve sections, and there have been nearly an equal number of picnics. Olivia Park seems to have taken precedence over other places as a picnicking ground, and the Hallowe'en note has been dominant at the parties.
The faculty have also had their share in social activities. Besides being privileged to act as sponsors at the student socials, they have had three distinct affairs of their own. Toward the end of September, Mr. and Mrs. G. S. Thompson entertained the Cherokee teachers at a picnic at Olivia Park. Miss DeLaney and Mr. and Mrs. Park were special guests at this time. The Cherokee faculty bridge club has held two meetings thus far.
NEW RULING HOLDS STUDENTS IN CHECK.
A new ruling, recently passed by the Board of Education, has resolved that students be excused from schools only on account of illness or for other serious matters. This ruling was passed pecause it has been increasingly noticed by the teaching force that the schools are endangered by the constant calls from different outside sources that students be excused from their classes. This, it was decided, is seriously damaging to the school system, in that interferes with systematic classroom procedure. The new ruleing purposes-to check these too frequent outside calls.
SPORTS
Due to the absence of the coach the major sport for boys, which is soccer, has been delayed. However, every section has organized a team. A tournament is now being conducted. It is an elimination contest. The loosers will play all other loosers and the winners all other winners.
New Rules Regulate Eligibility for Sports.
In keeping with some of the fundamental assumptions relative to sportmanship training and after several years of experimentation, the physical training teachers of both Junior High Schools and the Director of the schools have arrived at the following regulations:
Eligibility: all pupils earning a mark of C— or above in all regular four or five hour courses and Health shall be eligble to compete in the inter-class tournaments and inter-school contests.
Ineligibility: Pupils falling below the standard set above shall remain in-eligible to compete in such contests for a period of six weeks following the declaration of such ineligibility.
Mrs. Harrell, president of the P.T A., recently awarded section 9-I the prize for getting 100% of their parents to join the P.T.A.
The prize was a wall flower vase. Billy Davis, President of 9-I recived in the behalf of the class.
The entire school is glad to see Mrs. Meyer back again, after her illness of last week.
Humor
Startling discoveries brought to light as a result of recent tests:
A fish can swim in water because he holds his breath.
A pirate is a free government where the people make their own laws.
A smuggler is a government where the king rules.
Before a person can become a resident of the United States, he first has to become civilized.
Cherokee Observes Temperance
Twenty states celebrated temperance day on October 31, carrying out the mandatory state law that the schools observe this subject. Mr. A. M. Meyer was the speaker at the Cherokee observance. He stated that temperance in a special phase of citizenship. The school is the big business of America. One million teachers and z8 million students are engaged in the schools. This means that one fourth of our population is engaged in teaching or learning. The aim of the schools is to teach students to be citizens and not subjects. To do this, they must master temperence.
"The student who is unable to control his thinking or acting", he said, "is intemperate. Citizens who are temperate are builders rather than destroyers of character."
"What to do with your nickle?" Buy two apples in the lunch room for two cents each. Then spend the other penny for a "Cher-O-Key."
Gertrude Ginsberg left us last week to take up her residence in New York City.
