FEDERATED CLUBS HOLD SUCCESSFUL CONVENTION HERE ( Continued from page one ) eral numbers, and solos by Mrs. Alex Kizer in Mr. Alvin Moore were great ly enjoyed. The state president, Mrs. J. M. Hob good, thrilled the convention with an eloquent address, in which she declar ed that the nation's extremity is woman's opportunity, and declared that women should ' rejoice in living in the. present times, when the coun try so needs woman's service. She appealed to the club women to rise to t the occasion and prove that they now have the moral stamina which led the -woo?en of '76 and of 1918 to their greatest deeds. Mrs. Hobgood asserted that wars will cease when governments so re solve that they shall cease, and called upon the women to petition the gov ernment for relief from the heavy burden of national defense. Women, can exert greater influence with the ballot' providing they make a study of the needs of the nation and the methods best adapted to bring such relief from the powers. Women, Mrs. Hobgood asserted, as a whole, have accepted the right of franchise, and used it much as a woman would use a revolver before becoming accustom ed to it. It takes training to become a good marksman, and it takes study and training to become a good citi zen, she remarked. In eloquent language and with deep feeling, Mrs. Hobgood appealed to the women for re-establishment of the family altar and resumption of t"Ee days of prayer. She impressed her hearers with the assertion that wom an's first responsibility is the home, and the greatest field for service is to be found in the home. The world needs in this terrible crisis the in fluence of women banded together with more unity of purpose, and out spoken position of women on national and state questions. Mrs. Hobgood's address was declar ed by all who heard the gifted woman to be one of the greatest appeals ever heard in a gathering of women in the state. Mrs. George E. Marshall, second vice president of the State Federa tion, "and chairman of districts, gave an outline of the ideal club districts. Miss Frieda Hellar, representing the library extension service of the state, explained the system of circu lating libraries through rural districts. At noon the ladies of the Brevard Methodist church served dinner to the visitors, which was greatly enjoyed by v all. Mrs. Graybeal was elected president for the coming year, and Mrs. George Osborne, of West Asheville, was elect ed vice president. Miss Gertrude Dula is secretary_of the district. Brevard Federated clubs, consisting of the Mathatasian club, the Brevard GOODMAN COMING TOi PRESENT PLANS FORI COUNTY FARM AGENT! ( Continued from page one) ployed. Mr. Goodman, it is known [here, is especially anxious to have j Transylvania county resume its co- , 'operation with the Federal and State ; I government in the employment of an | ; agent. It is pointed out that the cost to ' the county is small, as the Federal | [and State governments pay most of ; !ihe expense of maintaining the office ! of county farm agent. It is intimat- i led that Mr. Goodman has & plan to ' present to the Transylvania county , , commissioners which will reduce the j j cost, it is said, to an absolute min- i ! imum. CHARLOTTE TRYING | FOR BIG MEETING1 i ! Raleigh, Oct. 28 ? Charlotte is mak ing a strong bid ? and with fair . 'chance of success ? for the second an- ! nual Jackson Day dinner, plans for which are getting under way, accord , ing to Tyre Taylor, chairman of the North Carolina Young People's Dem ocratic Organization, under whose auspices the dinner is held. While plans are immature, it is expected to have several national fig ures, such as Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt, of New York; Newton D. Baker and Owen D. Young, prospec tive candidates for President, as chief ' speakers, while other leading 'Demo- ; crats of this and other states may he , on the program. Jouett Shouse of | the National Democratic Executive j Committee, was principal speaker at j the first meeting, nearly two years ] ago in Raleigh, at which leading po- j litical figures of the State were! present. Charlotte is probably the only city I with a buijding, its Armory-Auditor- j ium, with sufficient space for the din- ! ers, since the Raleigh auditorium was burned, and, according to Mr. Taylor, has a good chance of being the host city. The date has not been decided, but the dinner will probably be in January or March. The dinner was omitted this year because of the long legislative session. INDUSTRIAL GROUP MEETS IN NOVEMBER! Raleigh, Oct. 28 ? The second an nual State-wide Industrial Safety Conference, under auspices of the North Carolina Industrial Commis sion, will be held in Charlotte, on November 5-6, program for which has just been issued by Commissioner T.

Brogdon, of Greens boro, president of the North Carolina Federation of Business and Profes sional Women's Clubs, is supervisor of rural education in Guilford County. At least that is the title that decor ates her office door. But to the teachers in the county schools, from the principals on down to the little girl who is groping her way through her first year of teach ing, Miss Brogdon is a sympathetic advisor. The last one of them flocks to her for advice of consolation when a snag is struck in the routine of run ning Guilford County's schools. To the women of the State Federa tion, Miss Brogdon is one of the big gest and finest women in the stale. They have her pour oil on the troubl ed waters, they have seen her struggle with knotty problems and finally work things through to a solution, they have seen her totally ignore petty jealousies and animosities that might otherwise have flamed into serious ? disturbances ? and they have come to admire and love and trust her. She is a real leader among women. A native of Tennessee, Miss Brog don was educated at Peabody College j for Teachers, . where she received a I B. S. and a Master's degree. She | did supervisory work in Maryland. During the year prior to her coming to Guilford County, she was state supervisor of education in Florida. She has been rural supervisor of Guilford County, for the past five years. Her professional experience has also included college teaching. She has served as a member of the facul- j ty of Peabody College for Teachers, Eastern Carolina Teachers College, Western State Teachers College, the University of Maryland and North i Carolina College. Miss Brogdon holds numerous re sponsible offices in educational and civic groups. She is state chairman of the Supervisors Group this year, as j well as vice-president of ,the North- ' west District of the North Carolina Education Association. Numerous, times, she has appeared on the pro gram of the National Education's As- 1 sociation's programs, and she was a member of the committee on the rural j MATHATASIAN CLUB MEETS i WITH MRS.

The highway had been closed, and the only road into that section on -op of See-Off was by way of the old Becky ' Mountain road, steep, rou'jh, and un I inviting to automobile travel. Many I citizens of the town, learning today i for the first time of the near-tragedy, I have paid compliments to Dr. Lyday for his many trips over the rough road in ministering unto the young man. It is said that young Henderson, and a beautiful young woman living nearby were engaged to be married and that a misunderstanding arose which so depressed Henderson that he sought to take his life. It is now reported that the wedding bells will ring as soon as the young man has recovered, and that this certainly is making rapid improvement possible. DR. BRINKMAN SAYS WAY LEADS TO GOD I "When the people of Brevard and : Transylvania, the State and the Na tion realize that they are leaving the i biggest things of life undone ? when a realization comes to the people of this land that God is a revengeful as well as a loving God, then and not until then will prospei'ity come," said the Rev. Dr. G. C. Brinkman, at the Brevard Kiwanis club meeting last Thursday. "People, generally speak ing," Dr. Brinkman told the Kiwan ians, "are literally 'laying down' in their support of the Kingdom and its work ? both morally and financially. This, in my belief is the chief reason for our economic ills. The people have turned their backs on the Most High, and He in turn is meting out just punishment." | Dr. Brinkman, a superanuate of the Methodist church, who has chosen with Mrs. Brinkman, to make Bre vard his home, is recognized as an authority on church questions and things pertaining to theology. He was invited to speak at the club by the program committee, and asked to use as his theme: "Brevard, from a Min ister's Viewpoint." Launching out into his subject, Dr. Brinkman charted that the people as a whole were to a great extent, liken ed unto the Children of Israel, who in the day of plenty, when things were running smoothly, when the na tion was being looked upon as typi cal of aspired leadership among the peoples of the world ? they began to look upon themselves as all-powerful, independent of any leadership but that which was man-made. The pre cepts of the Almighty were looked on askance, and so with the people to day, a falling off of church attend ance and financial support is seeij on every hand. i "When we are ready to come back ! to the footstool of the Galilean, when we are ready to exert our best for the- church and the things for which it stands; when we are ready, to give of our time, our means, our worship, then and not until then, will the promise given by the Master become effective when He said: 'Seek ye first the Kingdom of God and His right eousness, and all these things shall be added unto you'." BIRTHDAY PARTY ENJOYED WEDNESDA Y Catherine English, daughter of Dr. and Mrs. E. S. English, cele brated her 13th birthdav with a love ly party at her home Wednesday aft ernoon from 4:00 until 6:00 o'clock.

Sneciai session ' the General Assembly was urged )on Governor Gardner last week by to groups, one of time merchants, terested largely in tobacco acreage duction, headed by Senator W. G. | prk, of Edgecombe, and the other, s" aded by E. G. Bartlett, secretary of ' e Eastern Carolina Chamber of|th >mmerce interested primarily in , ?* tton acreage reduction legislation. jc01 While many are urging the ses- , sn >n, others are just as insistent that e speci?! session not be called, in- 1 iding the North Carolina mer-|$l' ants, who believe business and in- 1 37. stry would be strangled by tht'jdel aspect of another seige like the first ;"3, e months of this year. Josephus pai .niels continues to urge legislative ?s> ;ion. suggesting this state is "se- be ling' from the South, in not fol- 1 ? ring Texas and two other states in he luction of cotton acreage by legis- at ion, or Louisiana and South Caro- bef a, which would prohibit cotton anj nting. spe xovernor Gardner htard the two is | lups, and told them that he would or what, in his judgment, is best for c|g| most people of the State.

Approximately 50 books have been placed in each county school and upon a date to be set later, each school will exchange with another, the process being repeated until all the schools have access to the com plete library. This is the third year the Rural library has been used in the county and it has increased in number of books every year.
