Dr Dougherty spoke in a happy vein and enumerated a great* many of the outstanding resources and possibilities of Watauga and of Western North Caroina. H. I.. Wilson introduced H. C.

Mr. Bates spoke on the importance of purebred stock and the economical value to be derived from building up a herd of purebred dairy cattle.

Kcrlev died at his home at Bamboo Monday. The remains were taken to Boomer. Wilkes county, for interment Tuesday. Mr. Kerlev had been a resident of Watauga county for many years, and was a fine citizen. His family, two sons and four daughters, were reared here and are numbered among Wat auga's best citizens. Strange that nearly all of our best jugglers come from Europe and yet the Europeans can't balance their budgets. wat a A Non-Partisan Ne BOONE | Piedmont Conference Had Great Meeting | Setsioui Held with Church at Dulin't Grove; From Thursday Night To Sunday Night Eld. W. L. Trivett, pastor of the Advent Christian church at Lenoir, j and Eld. R. N. Baldwin, pastor of Che Boone Advent Christian church,. both of whom live in Boone, went to' Allen, N. C-, last Thursday where j they attended the annual session of j the Piedmont" Advent Christian Con-! ference, held with church at Dulin's Grove. Both of these .ministers returned j Monday and report a very splendid! meeting of the conference. Thej biggest thing t'hev report in the vrayj, of business transacted was the adop-{. tion of the report" of the ways and means committee hv unanimous vote., , This report* was as follows: I , Way* and Means I We, your committee on ways and i means, desire to make the following j recommendations: j , 1. >ve oeueve there should he injected into the life and activities of;, J this conference a new vision of our! , i duty unto God and greater enthusi- , 1 asm should be evidenced in the doing . of these duties. 2. We feel that the very first , thing that should be done to improve! j the condition of this conference is to divide t he territory of this con-i ference into three divisions. Division ' } No. I should include all the churchesj, in Watauga ar.d Wilkes counties. |, Division No. 2 should include the', churches in the counties of Avery, i Alexander, Burke. Catawba and Caldwell. Division No. 8 should include the churches in the counties of Gaston. Mecklenburg and Richmond. , These divisions should constitute district conferences that should be or-' , gaiiizcd and operate just as the Piedmont conference now operates. These ' , district eonferenees should he subsidiary to the Piedmont Conference^ and work with churches constituting said districts just as the Piedmont Conference now works with the ( churches constituting it. and each of. Chose districts should vie with each j other in building up every mprest oi tne denomination. I. W'e feel that the tinw has now' when a Sunday school association should be organized in thej hounds of this conference ,uni in each of the proposed districts of tho : conference and that this Sunday school association should bo linked up: witji and should affiliate with t*he i All-South i hristinr: Sunday School Association. Wo feel di.it the Woman's Home; and Foreign Mission S<u ! shpuid he organized in every church! in this conference and that oat of j these societies should be formed a conference association that shall promote the cause of missions in the i hounds of this conference. 5. We feel that There should he organized among' the ministers of this conference a Preachers' Institute, in which mere shall be conducted each year a school of tactics, in which the preachers shall consider their probI I ems and discuss ways and means of doing* their work, with the object in view of increasing: the efficiency ol each preacher. t>. We fee! that there should be planned and carried out an intensive and extensive campaign of evangelism, reaching- every church and new territory as well. 7. We feel that a gospel tent should be bought by this conference and be ginning early next spring a team of evangelism consisting of a preacher and singer, should use this tent every day during the spring and summer and fall, seeking to place the cause of A/luonHcm now finlilc Ufi( tin the conference. 8. We feel that' ibis conference should be permanently housed hi a home of its own centrally located in the territory of this conference. With this end in view we fee! t'hat land should be bought and a tabernacle should be built, with che idea in mind that this tabemacie shail in time be used for the meetings of the conference and camp meeting and a school of tactics for our preachers, Sunday school superintendents and Sunday school teachers and mission workers. J. We feel that the Bible doctrine of tithing should be taught thoroly to the membership of every church and we urge every preacher and Sunday school superintendent and Sunday school teacher to study this doctrine and preach it and teach it fully and enthusiastically, during the next conference year. 10. We feci that every church in this conference should take an offering once every three months for the benefit of the conference program, and we think that this offer-' irig should amount to at least* five cents per week per member, and that this money should be sent immediately after its collection to the conference treasurer. 11. We believe that advertising is i the greatest power that we can use. i lUGA iwspaper, Devoted to the E WATAUGA. COUNTY, NORTH CA1 Watauga Rep Hold County Convention Mond?y Niuaed W. H.

Mr. Gilmer said that' he had not o realized before the importance of h hardsurfacintr GO until his trip dur-jc ieg the week-end to Blowing: Rock' 1 wjicp* he saw at least iSOU aiitomo- jt biles on the highway Sunday. Hi set) journey to Bristol.

Countless tourist cars were encountered traversing between I Boone and Bristol , what Mr Gilmoi a described as one of the most beau- a tiful mountain countries he had ever \ seen, dotted as iL is with modern \ farm homes. i Completion of Highway 60 t?? the: c Tennessee line will link it with a | e gravel and water-bound macadam! road to Bristol. Half of ihis road .A is hardsurfaced, and the remainder; li will be finished within a year. Ar.! li Bristol the road connects with two s parallel hardsurfuce highways which lead toward Chicago. Detroit and li Cleveland. This route reduces the. r distance between Winston-Salem and (i Chicago.

Also, it is only t 38 miles farther to Asheville by way p of Boone over 60 than it is by a Moeksville-Statesville. and over i Route 10 to Asheville. <j Highway 60 is concreted t'o Yad-j 1; and that we should judiciously use every means possible to give wide publicity to the plans of this con- .j ference and the doctrines cf bur denomination. 2 12. We feel that the best way to a put the ideas of this ways and moans1 committee into successful operation | is to empower the executive board to i become a boar*] of missions and jjsrb-! . gram committee. to do all things ntctvsary to m - 'hi-se ide-? into open- | i i.; i i,.

On he other side of Wilkesboro are even Miles of concrete road. Fine work has been accomplished n Highway GO, and the oil road has ecu serviceable, but the time has ome to concrete the road to Wilkesmm, said Mr. Gilmer. In creased raffie has made it necessary. Not nly will the improvement give <orth Carolina its shortest and traightest east and west route. but it .'ill bring trade to Winston-Salem nd completely open Boone and Bowing Rock to tourists. In the Cove Creek valley between lonne and Bristol, Mr. Gilmer found farming section equal in appear nee and beauty to the Shenandoah 'alley. One man had a truck farm. Nay up in this valley in the iiioihiains he was growing lettuce, peas, ucumbcrs. snap beans and sugar prn. Between BGiowing Rock and Boone ir. Gilmer encounte red tourist., from inlf a dozen states, but Florida was >ettvr represented than any other tate. For several years The Journal has een advocating the concerting of lighway HO, and Mr. Gilmer's loclaration that'it should be done mmediately is expected by many teople to add a great deal of force o the movement. Since A. S. Hanet las been highway commissioner hi ins done a great deal toward the lormaneht improvement of route 60 ind it is believed by some interested n that route that he fully realizes its :reat importance and will continue lis program as soon as possible.
