The Children's Department, under the auspices of Mesdames C. C. Har rison and W. C York, is of especial interest. This department has been spnarated from the various depart ments and only exhibits from children are admitted. The children of the county have shown talents in not ott; ly culinary line Dut in an, arew making and in canning and presery- ing- ' Mrs. J. T. Underwood and Mrs. J, D. Ross, custodians of the Art De partment, say that this line of exhib its. far excell that of spy ever shown an Indian squaw and presented Dr. Dougan. Other items of interest in this section are a flint and steel lock found on the premises of Mr. Pool's father (luring the Revolutionary war and an old gun exhibited by Dr. J. u. Crutchfield which was used in tne CiTil War by Stonewall Jackson's nephew; also an old arithmetic pub lished in 1798. An old horn worn by the Indians in 1812. given to Mr. Ne than Hill and exhibited by Mrs. Ul Han Hfll Thomburg. A forty-four Colts nifttol which belones to Mr. W. Pool and was carried by his father T.

ANOTHER LAWYER LOCATED I.N ASHEBORO are the handpainted china, water color, oil paintings, and crayon draw ing. The ladies in charge of this department are particularly pleased over the fact that so many young la dies of the county are showing talent in this line of work. The basket display in this depart ment is probably the largest ever as sembled in North Carolina. Of par ticular interest are the baskets made from pine needles and decorated with the North Carolina toast and painting of the long leaf pine. The beaded baskets on display are also attracting much attention. The fiow rs made of tissue paper from the different sections of the county are of much interest. Mrs. John K. Wood with her com mittee on fiowers spent practically all Tuesday afternoon and Wednesday morning arranging a large display of potted plants and flowers. Mrs. Wood was in charge of this department ast year and says that the entne. are probably as much as three times s large as any previous year. Al most any kind of plant which is rouii in North Carolina is found on exhibit. Another interesting exhibit is that Senator Oscar W. Underwood, Ala bama's candidate for the presidential nomination has recently announced himself as still in favor of the League of Nations. "My views on the league of nations are well known," he said. "I voted for the Versailles treaty without res ervations, which included the league of nations covenant. I have no apol ogies now for my action then. Ihe Republican papers are trying to answer my criticism of the admin istration by saying that I am now opposed to the league of nations. They have not yet answered my criti cism that the party has no policy in tended to be helpful in Europe to preserve peace, re-establish Europe's finances and bring industrial stabil ity. ' " . . I might say that I have not been discussing the league of nations, be cause that is not aw issue. The Re publican party rejected it But I am justified In criticising the Republican administration for its lack of policy m isurope. we ought to. do some thing jto help Europe, and we have lzen.

Probably of the most in terest to farmers are two old mill stones used during the Revolutionary War and owned by the great grand- j father of the late John F. Jarrell.
