The sixth and seventh grades are worrying over the tangles of per centage with a worry that knows no ease except to conquer. Mr. M. H. Edmisten and Mr. A. E.

Miss Leona Glenn wasback in school today after a long absence, during which time she has bad a severe attack of rheumatism. We were all glad to see her back in her old seat again. We are glad indeed to hear that Mrs. L. L. Glenn and Mrs. Soloman Trivett, both in the hospital, Mrs. Glenn at Baltimore and Mrs. Trivett at Chattanooga, are rapidly recover ing.

The club in Catawba county was organized on the three year plan, which proposes to grow out the calves to maturity and to show them at tome fairs each fall. The club has twenty members, which is the min imum allowed under the new require ments. During the past year the members received $76.00 -in cash from the Jersey Cattle Club. The ! boys and girls takking part in it showed their calves at the county fair at Hickory and three were shown in Raleigh at the State Fair. According t oMr. Arey, this calf club work is doing tremendous good in advancing the dairy interest of Catawba county, and Irom the sac cess which the boys and girls are having there it is felt that the idea will spread over the other dairy coun ties of North Carolina. Gaston and Mecklenburg counties are also doing club work with dairy cattle but have not yet organized tneir clubs on the same plan as the Catawba County cure the payment of the sum of $603 with interest thereon at the rate of 6 per cent per annum from the date of I.
