of the Young Tar Heel Farmers of
the Seaboard Chapter held in the
high school building at which time
the boys entertained their dads
with the best program I have ever
seen put on by the members. The
boys had complete charge of the
program, and conducted it with
snap and percision from the open
ing ritual to its close.
‘ At the Hobgood High School on
Tuesday night the boys entertained
their dads for the first time at a
banquet in a most creditable man
ner. This is the first year they
have had vocation agriculture in
the Hobgood school.
it was my pleasure to drop in
upon the regular chapter program
of the Aurelian Springs Young Ta1'
Heel Farmer program Thursday.
This chapter has built a beautiful,
spacious log cabin for a chapter
house. Neither the teacher nor the
principal of the school could be
present so the boys had complete
charge of the program. The meet
ing was opened with the ritual

The order was perfect and the
smoothness with which the meet
ing was conducted could not b
excelled.
“The organization is truly deve
loping the leadership for rura
North Carolina and cooperative ac
tivities will be in good hands whei
these boys become the farmers o
