EPSOM NEWS The Little Five met the Mills High basket ball team 011 the Mills court Friday night February 26 in one ot the most exciting contests ot the sea son. A high score was made by the Mills High. In spite of the seeming "incapability" of the referee to call the game, both teams put up a hard. fight. We could say that the Little Five showed true sportsmanship throughout the entire game. From the Fifth Grade Three of the fifth grade children have the distinction ot having perfect grades in arithmetic during the fifth month. Even made 100 percent on the test. They are: Grace Hoyle, Jack Newton and Natalie Smith. ' Camilla Finch has received perfect grades on deportment every month this term. The Irving Literary Society held its regular meeting Friday, February 26th. As interesting program wws rendered. Three members chosen for the best were the following: Duet, by Louise Hershman and Natalie Smith; story, "Some Little People," Eleanor Newton; story, Elisabeth Wll son. Last Wednesday some of the fifth! grade child ran brought a beautiful I bunch of violets to school. This led ' to an Interesting discussion on flow ers. After reading some poems on flower* the children decided to at tempt making some rhymes about violets. The following three stansas were composed by Myrtle Mitchell, age eleven years. Violets are of the loveliest hue; And carry this message, "I love You," They are the flowers that are very dear. And bring us happlnes and cheer. I pluck them in the morning sun, I can hardly wait till my task's be gun; 1 can enjoy spending hours, Plucking and fixing these pretty flowers. Then into the house I gladly go, To my dear mother these flowers I show; __ She glances it thMf*wtth a smile very gay, And places them where she can see them all day.

Williams in the Frank lin Times of two weeks ago. It made i me want to catch the next bus for H'ollywood by the Sea. A trip with Mr. Williams' congenial party would have been worth while in any direc tion but it must have been enchanting ; through the land of palms, orange trees, pine apples and mud founda tions for houses. x | I notice a temporary program 'of the Loulsburg Band in Franklin coun ty for this spring. This home insti tution merits more support than was accorded it in its early days. It is composed of deserving talent who work for a living and play in the band because they love music. It is coun ty-wide in service and its leaders are real men. If you enjoy good music and would appreciate encouragement if your band was giving an entertain ment give these boys a crowded house and a glad hand when they come to your community. We are Indebted to Miss Daisy Caldwell, your home demonstration agent, for our garden suggestions for February. Harnett County's former farm demonstration agent asked me what to plant in his garden in Feb ruary and I looked in Miss Caldwell's column in the Franklin Times. Thank you. Miss Caldwell. Scouring the office floor reminds me of house cleaning. With spring knocking at the door I hope your spring bouse cleaning will be lighter and have less drudgery than usual this year. I wonder why strangers look at me so hard. Am I really all that my name suggests? Scientists talk of the tremendous candle power of the sun but there is nothing which surpasses the can dle power of two twinkling blue eyes, or two sparkling brown eyesi as the caSe may be, for real high powered sunshine to me. ? I shall meet with the Lillington Boy Scouts Friday night. They are without a Scout Master and I have promised to supply until they can get one. Do yo uthink an agricultural ex tension worker's thoughts are alwaye about cotton, tobacco and corn, oats and hay, mules and homes, cowa, pigs, chickens and billy goats?' Not on your life. A letter from my slater In Mis sissippi this week was worth more than a dozen pay checks for heart food. I wish I could tee her. I have aot seen her since I came to North Carolina, not since she graduated from College. She la now Assistant Dietitian In a Mississippi State Sefli torlnm. The Harnett county commissioners :ontinued their appropriation for farm iemonatration work in Harnett conn :y Monday. Barring accidents, I ?hall be here for the remainder of he year at least.
