WOMEN ARE URGED TO JOIN BOOSTERS (Contributed) It's a mighty hard task to writ* when you are not naturally inclined to do son and moat especially when you can't decide just what you want to say. It's quite different though when you have something on your mind that keppe tampering with your speaking and writing ability. Everyone of us should apprec iate our town and try to make it a better one to live in. We are more fortunate, than a number of people, to liye in-a town that is growing and wide-awake. Any one enjoying the town's facilities and advantages should not do any else but boost it. The men of our town are always boosting the tobacco market, the ac tivities of the chamber of commerce or some other town movement and we enjoy hearing them and feel that we toe, should have something to be working, for. 5 Sometime in this month Mrs. Thad Hedgepeth of Elm City has consented to come to Ahoskie and hefp organ ize a chapter of the North Carolina' Federation of Women's Clubs.
