The senior class of Southport
high school will present the play
"Tons of Trouble" on April 8th
at 8 p. m. in the high school

Imagine a young: man who, in
order to please his uncle, has lied
about owning a prosperous farm.
xThen imagine the young man's
horror when said uncle arrives
upon the scene, declaring that he
wishes to spend the summer on
his nephew's farm.
After that, imagine the young
man's friend, who has lied to his
wealthy Aunt, telling her that he
has been married for two or three
years, and then she pops in, ex
pecting to meet the wife! But

Farmers Busy
Planting Corn
j Com Planting Was General
All Throughout Brunswick
| Last Week With Most Of
' Crop Already In Ground
Corn planting has become gen
1 cral during the last ten days and
J a great deal of the crop is in
I the grounds, according to Cotin
I' ty Agent A. S. Knowles. In
most eases the growers went to
the trouble to prepare fine seed
I beds.
| Last week the agent held a
series of five meetings gathered
at these meetings to hear better
corn production practices, and al
so better practices for various
other crops. Mr. Knowles says
i that there appears to be a fine
j coordination of efforts among
the farmers in growing corn and
i other crops. In this the various
I agricultural agencies are hearti
| ly cooperating.
I The outlook is for over fifty
j Brunswick farmers to try to get
| into the 100 bushels-of corn per
| acre class this year.
