Club will climax the 1960 4-H
Corn Growing Contest with a
banquet at their regular meeting
at the Edenton Restaurant next
Monday night, November 21, at
7:00 o’clock. All 4-H com con
testants and their dads are in
vited and urged to attend.
This is the sixteenth year the
Edenton Lions Club has spon
sored a Chowan County 4-H'
Com Growing Contest. Begin
ning in 1945 the Lions Club has
sponsored this contest continu
ously. The 4-H boys have been
inspired to greater achievement
because of the contest. Each
year the contestants and their
dads look forward to the ban
quet. The contest has been one
means of bringing our town and
country closer together.
Chowan County Annual Farm
Bureau Meeting: The annual
meeting of the Chowan County
Farm Bureau was held at Cho
wan High School Wednesday
evening. The event started with
a fish fry at 5:00 o’clock with
approximately 250 in attendance.
Following the fish fry, approxi
mately 75 people attended the
annual meeting in the audi
torium.
President Eugene Jordan pre
sided at the meeting. Field
Representative William Little
presented a very impressive talk
on “Making Tne Farm Bureau
Active In Your County.” Mr.
Little explained how important
it is for each member to take
an active part in the county or
ganization. The County Com
j modity Committee channels its
resolutions and recommendations
to the State Committees and
they in turn to the National
Committees of the organization.
Woodrow Lowe was elected
president for Hie 1960-61 year,

George Lewis was elected vice
president and- David Bateman
was elected secretary-treasurer.
New members of the board of
directors elected for a two-year
term were John B. Byrum, Mar
vin Evans, Carl Ober and
Thomas P. Griffin. Board mem
bers to serve their second year
are Dallas Jethro, Jr!, T. O. As
bell, N. D. Chappell and Bristoe
Perry. As retiring president,
Eugene Jordan becomes a mem
ber of the board for this year.
Membership drive chairman,
Bristoe Perry, reported 214 mem
berships received to date and
that there are possibly a few
memberships more not received
yet. The county membership
goal is 235 members. The coun
ty Negro organization is work
ing but Mr. Perry did not have
a report from them. We feel
that the county quota will be
reached this week.
It was inspiring to have about
thirty Edenton merchants attend
the annual meeting. Under the
leadership of George Lewis, the
merchants group made a farm
tour which ended at 'he fish
fry and meeting. Such activi
ties bring our town and country
people closer together for better
understanding and closer rela
tionship.
