Miss Helen Tharrington carried ott the honors for neatness and boat English work for the session. It seems that Miss Alle<-n Cooper has set a standard for deportment that no one elaf can reach; her school-mates say "There's no use la anybodjT working ugainsr Alleen for the deportment prize, she getB -lt-| every time." Again Miss Cooper wins the prize for excellent deportment. The last twelve names mentioned received a standard book as a reward of merit for their lator. The promotion cards were then given to-the pupils completing a grade, nearly every pulpl was pro moted; only those who did not attend school regularly failed to make their grades, most of these were instances of slokness or weak eyes. The morning program Was conclufl ed with a beautiful prayer and bene diction by the pastor. - A sumptuous dinner was waiting on the grounds, the kind that tho Laurel folks knew how to serve. Af ter a most enjcyable hour outside the audience returned to the schorl building whore an entertainment was given by the Primary department, concluded with a Hoop Drill by a /class In Physical Culture. The tittle folks acquitted themsel ves with credit to an appreciative au dlenc?. In the evening tho older pupils gave a Minatrel.

The laughter and applause gave vent to the feeling of the audience. - Quite a number of visitors were present and everybody Reported a most enjoyable day and commented on the patience and perseverence of tho teachers and pupils. . , The trustees and teachers wish to acknowledge their appreciation to every one who helped to make this occasion one ot succeia, especially Mr. Howard who Was present the ?n tlre time, and served In some way, willingly and well, at each Assem blage of the day. And so came the end of a "Perfect lay." a ? , How To Stock Th* Farm Figh Pond Raleigh, May 22? Indications are that many farmers In North Carolina are Interesting thefielvea In having a farm fish pond from which they may secure a plentiful supply of this food for home use. Just recently A. Grav es Thompson,, who lives at Mclver In Caswell County, wrote the Agrtcul . tural Extension fentce that he had a pond of about an acre in size that he wished to stock with food flsh. H. H. Brlmley, Curator of the state Museum, answering the letter for the extension folks suggested that such a pond might well have two or three varieties of the beat kind of nar?h which ifould be better than using black bass and parch. WhUe many farmers will prefer baas as wall is perch the ff". X! SS. -? ?? Brclaea of Laurel took place Wednesday ot last At eleven o'clock in the morn n. T. M. Pittman of Henderson ed Ihe school. His subject ^ork", and he handled It well, icourse was able, spicy and ln intcrestlng from start to fln l . . . bilm and crapple.botl! of irntth reach' a weight of one or two pounds. The crapple is generally known as white perch and Id eastern Carolina as speckled p^rch. Since the" State Department of Ag riculture doeB not supply n?h for stock lng. Mr. Brimley suggested that small fry could be obtained from the United States Fisheries Commission at Wash ington, D. C. It is thought though that an easier and quicker way to stock a new pond would be to ca.tch adult Jista of the species mentioned in the ponds and streams nearby, using a small hock or a seln, handling the Ceh carefully and transporting them in large containers to the new pond. Mr. Brimley suggests also that some of the common sunflsh or chub robin might be added. Shad roachM- and minnows ought to be placed In the pond tor food for the perch and plen ty of bushes allowed to grow around the edge of the pond so that insects upon 'which, the small fish f<"ed would be attracted to the place. All eels, catfish and terrapin should be. exclud ed from the pond and flood water from the surrounding fields kept from flow ing into it. When handled In this manner, a pond covering an acre of land would supply plenty of fish fori family use. Co-operatives Win Virginia Decision A complete victory before a Vir ginia Jury gained new legal ground for the Tobacco Growers' Co-opera tive Association Thursday, in Its case against W. T. Martin, of Campbell pounty, when Judge Barksdale, pre siding at Rustburg, ruled that the taking of defendant's tobacco by a sheriff on levy was no defense against his obligation to deliver to the as jociation. Judge Barksdale also ruled that the defendant was liable to pay damages on such tobacco as was grown by his wife and minor child ren and delivered outside of the Co- 1 operative Association in violation 6t his contract. The Jury rendered a verdict for the association of $70, in liquidated damages, and $75 in counsels fees. Major W. T. Joyner, of Raleigh, N. C., represented the association. Thursday's case was an Important gain fo^ the association in that It established lor the second time by a Jury trial that the Tobacco Co-opera tlve has prior claim to all the tobacco grown upon the lands of its mem bers. This principle Is further em phasized incourt by the ruling of Judge Barksdale that not even the levy of a sheriff upon a member's tobacco can relieve him of the re sponsibility of delivery to his assocla tlon according to contract.
