Green Bank Schools
It is true that through necessity, pupils are sometimes absent.  Occasionally it may be necessary for students to be absent because of work at home. We have learned from personal experience that such absences may be prevented by the work being done before and after school and on Saturday. We saw a boy on his bicycle at 4 p.m. Thursday. He had been absent but said he was ill in the forenoon, but recovered sufficiently to ride his bicycle in the afternoon.  What is the obligation of the parent in this case?
 
Friel Homecoming
A very enjoyable day was spent at Seneca State Park on Sunday, September 2, by Mr. and Mrs. Ellis Friel and Mr. and Mrs. Quincey Friel and several of their families, descendants of the late Jasper E. Friel.  There were thirty-six relatives and friends present for the occasion
 At noon a bountiful basket lunch was spread.  The Rev. Norman Alderman was the afternoon speaker and several songs were sung by the Rev. and Mrs. Alderman.
 The oldest member present was Quincey Friel and the youngest was Dayton Defibaugh.
