If the money ?which North Carolina Is sending to other States each year for food and feed product were kept at ho&e, the accumulation would equal the' Talue of all"the farm land and^farm build ings in the state la less than tea years. Thin irtrlUnif itntnment nppnnrn fn n leaflet embracing an analysis andsttin^ mary of the agricultural situation In North Carolina, together with the sug gested remedies being- advocated In the "Ulve-at-Home" movement. The leaflet was prepared by John Paul Lu cas, executive secretary of the Central Campaign Committee and is being sent broadcast over the state to "members of the county campaign, committees, focal school teachers, school commit teemen, bankers And olhergr ; ? "We send to other states each year lor food and feed products, most of ? which wb could easily raise ourselves, a sum very considerably in excess of the value of our entire cottoncrop; In excess of the total value of our to bacco crops ; a sum almost twice as great as the value of our combined crops of hay, peanuts, sweet potatoes, wheat, o?ts, *y?> soybeans, cow peas, and sorghum." * , The two outstanding purposes of the "Llve-nt'Htrme" campaign are declar ?d as follows : (1) To induce every farm family Jn North Carolina to raise at home those food and feed products which arte nec essary for the proper maintenance of the family and of the livestock on tho farm. 2() To promote the health, the phy sical efficiency the general welfare and happiness of the people of North Car olina through a balanced and more ed d,let, which can be ae^red only li :V.<> necessary food stugs are produc er home and are constantly a vall ate. * in .u -icr to accomplish these pur poses, the statement says, it is neces sary t hjit every farm family in North Carolina, white and colored, shall: . (1) Have an all-the-year garden. (2). Keep one or more cowb'. ' (3) Keep an anfple flock of chickens. (4) Raise its own hog meat. "Tliit t? " " "'j' r'T*""** ? calls for notlv.ng more in the way of energy, outlay, or intelligence than can be supplied by 99 per cent of the farmers in North Carolina. This pro -gram has been followed and is being followed by tens of thousands of fam ilies in North Carolina. On the other hand, it is being utterly neglected by tens of thousands of families." Attention is called in the leaflet to a number of important bulletins and circulars hy the Agricultur al Extension ?Ai-vira rpT~nT1nj> tr, ttip tending of gardens, -the keeping ? of cows, poultry and hogs, and to farm> ing generally under boll weevil con ditions.

Junor-Senior Reception. A reception was riven by the Junior ; Class in honor of the Senior on St. j Patrick ? Day March IT. 1922. The color scheme was that of the emerald ! isle, green and white. The chapel ! was very beautifully draped in grace- ? ful garlands or green and white; while" j white carnations and green ferns car- | ried out the color scheme in halls and < parlors. Most attractive of tfte ? 4tcorttjOB>4 was the bower-like booth which was j erected for the punch bowl. This was I charmingly presided over by two freshmen alluringly costumed as Irish maiden's. When the guests arrived they were received at the door by several mem^ j bers of the incoming Senior Class and ushered down the receiving line com- j posed of Junior and Senior class offi- j cers and Junior and Senior Class teachers. . | Upon the dispersal of the receiving line a very * delightful program was rendered fc*?

[While waiting for that part of the au-i [dience who attended the Orphanage [concert first early comers had the great pleasure of hearing some excel | lent piano music rendered *by Miss Lu cille Holden, who later played the ac companiments for the soloist in a high ly acceptable manner. I Miss Lois Guffy was chief marshal. ! ! assisted by Misses Ma^y Towe. Fran- | ces Brown. Willie Pleasants and Julia I Wyche Allen. The attendance was 1 good and the performers were well re- : ceived . The program was unusually attrac tive, including as it did among the songs both the grave and the gay and among the readings prose and poetry, monologue and play. Miss Bolton's first number was a spring song full of the bubbling }oy ousness of youth. 'What's in the air to-day T" composed by Edfen. She had five other numbers on the program ranging from Giordani's "Caro Mio l Ben** rendered with real ability In the, Italian of the original, through the pathos of TolstTs "Goodbye", the sweet ' nes* and beauty of I* eurance's Indian lore song entitled "Klmm an Indian Village" to the light whimsical "Gar den Song" of Koeger and the "Sin gin and a Singln" Of NeidUnger. Miss Bolton radiates friendliness in such measure as to win her audience at first sight and when she sings the conquest is complete. Miss Wlnstead's first reading was Act I from the dram (taxation of Little j Fauntleroy. She added ner own per sonal charm to this always charming favorite of "children of all ages from ?even to seventy.** The aod?ence was greatly pleased also with her interpr* . tat km of the somewhat sentimental ' reading "The Sign of the Cleft Heart" 3 m1 of the monologue by Marjorie lien- i ti<i Oooke "Suburbanites.'* Mi&s Winstead shows an unfaHing i ability to create variety of mood and ' a facility tn'dramatic expression which cannot tail to please an audience. | -A KBTTITET BELLE.* There will be a play "A Kentucky , Belle" given at Moul ton Hayes school Friday night, March 34th. beginning at I 8 o'clock ?harp.
