A number of students are now work ing! on their essays, and the county, contest will be a lively one. The subject Is "Cooperallve Organizing”' Standardizing and Merchandising.’’ Schools operating for only six months term began to close last Friday when about fifty per cent of the short termers wound up the 19'28-'29 session, and Friday ol this week wl'll find the balance ol them closing. Only one or two exceptions are noted in the closings, these be ing late openers last fall. The ten high schools, namely, at .'L'i'lllngton, Dunn, -Bunnlevel, Ander son 'Creek, Benhaven, Boone (Trail. Lafayette, Angler, Coat-s and Erwin, will close during May. As a rule, the six months schools open a short, while after the high school (or 8 months terms), open. Dunn operates for nine months, being the only school in the county with a term of that length. Bunn-, level high* school carries Its students through the tenth grade only, and Anderson 'Creek does the same. At Boone Trail school the term is siz^ inonlhs for the elementary grades aad eight months for the hlglji school About one hundred of the elementary students are still going to school to teachers who volunteer ed to instruct them on subscription.' Parents of the students who are continuing in school have agreed to personally pay the expense. 'Funds’ for the payment of salaries of teachers in the six months schools have run out, according to Superin tendent Gentry, and teachers are be ing aPowed to leave the county and return to their homes without get ting their pay. ,He hopes to have funds in hand to settle these obliga tions BO no, however. In the case of the high schools (or eight months terms) there ir sufficient money in hand to pay sal aries because there is an extra tax Iqfy li'i these districts which fur nishes more funds.

Hatching capacltls at all of the cultural stations,- they' reported, have been extended and facilities for rearing the baby Iry have been en larged. Then announced that the Conservation Department, through the cooperation of indivduals, coun ty and municipal governments, and sportsmen’s organizations, Imb . set as an objectlv'e the rearvig of every fish from the hatcheries to a finger- ling size before being released In- fishing waters.

Indications now are that the ex position will be a success, as many of the leading manufacturers of the State have contracted tor space, in the exposition buildings In order that they may display, their N-orth Carolina-made products, according to T. B. Smith, secretary-manager of the exposition. The manufacturers have respond' ed very nicely to the appeal of G ernor O. Max Gardner that they U;t their aid In making the flr;‘t '.n'.'u- trial exposition a success u Mr. (Smith said. In a L . . some three thousand man.. . In the State, Governor Gardner ask ed them to display their products a’ the exposition in order that the pc«> pie of. the State might have an oi*- portunlty of seeing Just how much progress the State has made along industrial lines during the past sev j eral years'. The only distinction between the forthcoming State Industrial Exposi tion and the State Fair, which Is held in October, Is that the Indus trial Exposition will attempt tc| show what the State Is doing Indus trially, while the State Fair mirrors the State's progress along agricul tural lines. In reality, Mr. Smith said, the Industrial Elxpositiou will be a “summer time Slate Pair.” There will be plenty of entetraln-/ ment for those who attend the ex position, Mr. Smith said. Amuse ment will be-provided by a carnival, a' 'Wild West rodeo show, featuring broncho-busting cowboys and cow girls, and dances nightly in the m'aln exhibit hall at the fair ground.
