The freckled anglers had heard something anut • Bible char acter being told to "go catch fish and pay his taxes." For that reason they were overwhelmed with awe. They hastened home with the Ish and the thre dimes. Their father said lying was an unpardonable sin, and that he would flail them into repentance. "But wait a minute," he said. "I'll give you a chance. If that fish is such a mint M-yoo say it ia r them's - more money In it. I don't ex|>eet to find a cent, but I'm going to be fair with you."

Tne six girls making the highest grades in these classes were uwardeu guigtiani dresses made from cloth do nated by the Pomona Mills ol' Guil ford county. Miss W ahace stated that the instruction in tins course was so tedious and exacting that it was decided to make it more interesting by means of this contest. The second contest was in canning. The young ladies were required to do actual canning. They{ were given demonstrations by their jnstructoi s, and in turn gave demonstrations with both fruit and vegetables, lloth the commercial and home use of caiuied , materials were stressed in thie course. The third course was in jelly mak ing. A number of the young ladies who attended last year's short course won many prises with jelly at the various fails of the state and some sold their jelly at good prices. The record of Lhe-so former..students did much to popularize tins phase of the short course. But it was not all work. Col. Fred Olds took them around on trips of inspection toXariou# parts of the Cap ital City; there were songs, Htuuts, games and friendly contests between counties and there was the lun of being together as recognized leaders in a line 'it work that luis dennpistrat ed its vaV' to the North Carolina farm home. In the opinion of Miss Wallace, the dean of the school, this short course was one of the most succesfui yei held. All of the girls took an inter est in their work and seemed to en joy the privileges of being selected to attend. It is planned to make pro visions for :t greater number next year, and it is probable that one ot the larger girls' colleges of the slate will be u.-ked to cart* for the girls. Lack of dormitory room at Peace In stitute has been a limiting factor in the size of the school so far. A SOCIAL PARTY % ' A social party was given Thursday night, June 4th, at the home of Mr. W. T.

In the be- | ginning this company called your at-' leution to the laws and has ever since i urged you to action. You appointed | a committee to confer with the rubber growers. We protested that tins would bo a waste of time. Months have elapsed—the rubber growers have re ported more strict enforcenu nt of the laws. Nothing has been accomplished. Feeling this would be the result we have been doing everything in our l»ower to bring about a protest to the British government through the proper channels availalfle. We have not had your cooperation. We have had only your continued opposi tion. .. "The United States government has recognized the problem as vital, af fecting both our peace, prosperity and war security, and has appropiiated u substantial fund for the investiga tion of u safe and adequate source of supply. This company desires to do everything in its power to furthei this worthy project and to continue the agitation for the repeal irt' the British laws. We have been aware of your opposition even of your direct appeal to the membership to have no thing to do with our efforts, but when you employ the funds of the associa tion, a substantial portion of which , this company contributes—to actively oppose by systematic and organized publicity bur eftorts to secure the repeal of tho lams and better con ditions Tor the rubber rndttst ry and the. consumers of rubber products, there apparently remains 4no choke." 1 FORI) MAKES A HIGHER RECORD Daily Output Is Being Steadily Increased At All Plants Dally production of Ford cars and trucks went over the 6,600 mark on Wedsesday, May 9, it is just announc ed through the Ford News. , The production on that day was ] 6,615, exceeding by 26 the last high est day, Friday," Mwy 4th, when a reword of 6,690 was established.
