FOUR THINGS TO DO AS THE CHILDREN START TO SCHOOL Well Made Clothes and Shoes.? The clothing should be strong and rather light-weight, with a wrap for cold and bad weather. The wrap should always b? removed on entering the school room. The shoes should be strong, with good thick soles and low heels. Thin, flimsy soles are no protection against dampness or nails. Above all, the shoes should be wide. II A Neat Well-balanced Lunch.?If a child takes a lunch to school, see that the lunch is gotten up in an appetizing and attractive manner, and that it be a well-balanced ration ?not to many sweets. A bottle of milk should have a place in every lunch basket. Lunch should be carried in a basket, or if it is carried in a bucket, it should contain plenty of airholes. Each article of food should be wrapped in a paper napkin. Ill See That Head, Hand*, Nails, and Teeth Are Clearv?See that your child goes to school clean and neat, especially with clean hands and finger-nails. See that the teeth are brushed night and morning. It is well to examine your child's head carefully every few days. At school a child often gets things in its head ionless i| BELIEF" ? vibrationless.

IV Take The*o Measures to Keep 8lckness Aw*y.?See that your child is vaccinated against small pox. dlptherla, and typhoid fever. If your child'e eyes, teeth, or tonsils need attention, have this attended to at once.

The editor of the magazine carrying the amazing article Is a famous Gloucester surgeon whose advanced opinions are widely quoted. The writer of the article maintains that constant and Intensive practice i on a musical Instrument gives the surgeon a super-degree of dexterity. The difficult exercises required In bringing tuneful blasts from a horn are even superior to the skill required by the I medical man In the midst of a major operation. Absolute muscular control of the Angers and their Immediate re sponse to mental suggestion are lister by the writer as paramount among thi benefits derived from the musical side line.

Press W cert for By BEATRICE COBB Secretary North Carolina Press A QQnpint inn Morganton, N. C. The press of North Carolina! No other single factor has contributed so largely to the wonderful development that has taken place in North Carolina during recent years. It is not idle boasting to assert that during the last decade North Carolina has come to the front in way that has commanded the attention of the entire Nation, and has created wealth at a rate that even her own people have marvelled. In this march of progress the newspapers of .the State have taken and valiantly held the place of leadership that rightfully belongs to the press of any sec AWARD OF THE SOI RAILWAY'S Selecting the Prize Winning Corn In th by the Southern Atlanta, Oa.?The handsome silver cup offered by the Southern Railway System to the grower of the best ten ears of corn, produced In eight tates of the South and exhibited at certain state and district fairs, was first competed for In 1925. It was shown at most of the fair* within the territory and did much to stimulate competition among the com growers of the South. The ten ear exhibit adjudged to be the best shown at each fair was put up In a sealed package by the officials of the fair and forwarded to the General Agricultural Agent, Southern Railway System, Atlanta, Ga? with a letter certifying the name and postofflce address of the grower and exhibitor of the com and the county In which It was grown. Twenty-seven lots of corh which had won first nrlzes at the fairs were forward ed to Atlanta. At the Invitation of Southern Railway System, Mr. John R. Hutcheson, Director of Agricultural Extension, Blacksburg, Va.; Mr. E. B. Ferris, Director of the South Mississippi Branch Experiment Station, Poplarvllle, Miss., and Mr. C. A. Cobb, Editor of the Southern Rurallst, Atlanta, Ca., met In Atlanta on December 7 to select the best one of the twenty-seven lots of corn and award the cup. Each tenear exhibit was given a number and the Judges had no means of knowing where It was grown or by whom It had been exhibited. ' It Is doubtful whether so many uniformly good exhibits of corn had ever before been gotten together In the South. All of them were good, but, after carefully going over each exhibit and scoring It on the schedule of points governing the award, the judges unanimously agreed as to one to which the cup should be awarded. It was then found that this exhibit had been grown by William Patton Boland, a 16-year-old Corn Club boy,: of Pomarla, Newberry County, 8outh Carolina, and had been awarded the ? ? - -?

"We feel that offering the trophy Is distinctly In the Interest of the farmers generally throughout the en tire southeastern section of the Country and are of the opinion tha( the cdtatest is worthy of the continued support of the farmers and agricultural leaders in the South. We were pleased to find so large a number of exhibits representing so wide a territory). Indicating the wide-spread Interest in the contest." The cup was formally presented to William Prtton Boland in the jGovernor's office at Columbia on December 28, by Governor Thomas G. Mc- ' Leod of South Carolina. 1 In conformity with a concurrent resolution adopted by the legislature of South Carolina, the cup was put on exhibition in the lobby of the State House. It was shown at Charleston, S. C., during the meeting of the National Foreign Trade Convention in that city, April 28-80, 1926, and was taken to Washington, D. C., and shown during the meeting of the United States Chamber of Commerce, May 11-13, 1926, where it attracted much attention. By Invitation, young Boland took the cup to the WhltS House, where he was congratulated by Pres ldent Coolldge and where photograph! of the president, the cup winner and the cup were made on the White House lawn. It Is Interesting to note that the corn which won the prise In 1925 was a variety originated in Georgia and Improved by Mr. T. M. Mills, County Agent, Newberry County, South Carolina, a real expert In seed selection and production. The variety Is a single-eared white dent type of fair uniformity and good quality.
