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.)

“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.

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.

Transcript
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?

Billy greet you confidently- confident that our undertaking will meet with your approval and confident that you give us your hearty support.

To accomplish this objective, to give her the most complete and adequate publicity, we solicit the aid of the entire student body. We urge a continuance of your reputed spirit of co-operation. Boost your paper, boost your school, and let us all strive to make Cherokee’s newest enterprise a complete and notable success.
AN APPRECIATION
The staff of the Cher-O-Key wish to take this method of thanking the printing department and typing club for their splendid co-operation in making our journalistic venture possible. While the paper largely represents the efforts of the journalism club we wish the student body to know the share that these two departments are taking in our publication. We sincerely appreciate their support and willing aid.

MERIT LIST FLUCTUATES IN NUMBERS WEEKLY
Merit cards have rivaled the Wall Street stock markets in fluctuation since the opening of school. Billy Tyree was the first student at Cherokee to receive a merit card this year. A week later, Ruth Wetherington received the second. Since that time, the awards have been steadily increasing in numbers. These cards are given weekly to some students who have attained a high excellence in scholarship.
The following students have received merit cards during the week of Oct. 15-19: Dorothy Cuthberson, Mary Terhune, Ormond Powers (2), Billy Berst. Week of Oct. 22-26: Barbara Parker, Esther Hadeck (2). Helen Arendt, Roberta Barnett, Virginia Copeland, Effie Mc Gormack (2), Clifford Haughton, Billy Tyree, Irvin Marchand, Edna Parker, Newelle Clark, Howard Davis, Winifred Berst, Sara Harell, Harriet Ravencroft, Cecil Keith, Edna Hinchey, Maxine Fugate, Shan Kazarosian. On Wednesday, Oct. 31, there was an unusual situation; there were no merit cards for the preceding week.
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.
