The Young Tar Heel Farmers Club of Farmer will not hold their barbe cue as announced and planned for this week on account of the condition of the roads in the section. It has been many years since the roads in and around Farmer have been so slick ami since many of the boys in the club live several miles front the school and a number of visiting speakers were invited to attend. Mr. Cooper, agricultural teacher, has postponed the Ivirbecue until the Hist of the year.

Report To Gardner Results Of Living At Home Movement As ,.nc feature of the live-at-home j dinner to be tendered Go\ eitu> 1 and j Mrs. O. Max Gardner and Governor elect and Mrs. J. C. B. Khringhaus at State College Friday evening, De cember lb, Dean I. 0. Schaub and Mrs. Jane S.

The dinner will be tendered by toe new spatter men and women ot 1> 1 , i amt the 'ood will cott’.e t! otn all irts • 1 he State. 1. H.

An elaborate program o. -tn’its, entertainment, and setoeusness i,as been prepared by John A. Dark and ns local committees. Among other things, the college ex tension service will report to the outgoing Governor and inform the in coming executive as to the results se cured during the past three years of live-at-home effort. Preliminary fig ures indicate that the farmers and farm women have increased the value j of the fi'i'd and feed products grow n .n this State by .‘>0 million dollars owr the situation as it existed in t pop when the campaign was begun. This re-uit has been .-ecured in spite ,,f ;,,u ptH-i's for all farm produce and means that the aggregate pro duction was many times that indicated bv ;ts \ uliio in ilf iisirs. Back in lP'J'J, when farm values were higher than they are now, it is estimated that the folks were import ing about 1 AD million dollars annual ly in food and feed products. This bill was paid largely out of money made with cotton, tobacco and pea nuts. But when the farm income and value- shrunk, it was seen that this great bill could no longer be borne by the returns from cash crops. 1'hat the live-at-home plan has been a suc cess can be seen from the fact th:P the acreage to cash crops decreased by 575,342 acres and the acreage to food and feed crops increased by S17.S41 acres; two years. I Poultry in nine demonstration flocks on which records were kept in Caldwell county this season paid a net return above feed cost of $1.55 a bird.

ADAMS MARRIED The marriage of Miss Mary Bulla, iof High Point, to J. R. Adams at the ! home of Rev. T. A. Sykes in High I Point, Tuesday evening, December 6, 1 will be of interest to many relatives | of the bride who is a former Ran dolph citizen, being the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. T J. Bulla, of High Point, formerly of Randleman, who announce the marriage. The ceremony was performed by Rev. Sykes, pastor of the bride, the ring service being used. The bride was given in mat riage by her brother, J. I>. Bulla. Miss Grace Bulla acted as maid ot honor and Miss Lilyan Bulla and Mrs. J. L. Bulla as bridesmaids. W. W. Hod gin was best man to the groom. The bride was lovely in a gown of independence blue chiffon velvet, with blue turban and matching accessor ies. She wore a shoulder corsage of white rosebuds and lilies of the val ley. The bride and groom are both con needed with the Wachovia Bank and Trust Company of High Point. Mr. ! Adams was formerly a student of Guilford College. Following the ceremony, Mr. and Mrs. Adams left by motor for Wash ington and other northern points where they spent their honeymoon be fore returning to High Point where they are living in their new home on Arlington Drive. THE 111'BERNATORIAL SHIFT (The Houston Post) Of the 48 states in the Union, 38 will have Democratic chief executives next year, and in many of those States the legislatures will be Demo cratic by considerable majorities. There are left only nine Republican governors in the entire country. The Farmer-Laborites have one. In the election, there were many notable overturns in State adminisra tions. It is scarcely believeable that Democrats could win governorships in such States as Michigan, Wisconsin, Iowa, Illinois, Idaho and others that have been long in the Republican col umn. It is indicative of the nation wide loss of confidence in Republican policies that nearly all the old-line Republican States should not only turn to the Democracy for national leadership, but that they should sup plant their State Republican regimes with Democratic. N'othing could more fully demonstrate the political bank ruptcy of the Republican party. Closing Out SALE MOORE'S BOOK STORE —EverythM^ Must Go—• Moore’s Book Store 129 N. Main St. High Point, N.

C., Satur day night. The capitol dome was re ported ho have been a lovely sight as were the many statues of the city, but the chief center of interest was capi tol hill where a large group of young sters enjoyed sledding. The snow was somewhat general in the United States excepting in Ore gon and the southern states. The snow was particularly heavy on the western side of the Appala chians, drifting in some places to five feet in West Virginia. There were many motor mishaps and de lays that' brought out searching par ties for tourists overdue. The east as well as the Mississippi anti the Ohio valleys were to look whiter than ever today, the govern ment predicted. “Continued cold" and “colder” were promised the midlands. Colorado sent a low barometric area slowly eastward. Another moved north from Tennessee and Kentucky, where a heavy sleet storm glazed the countryside. These disturbances prom ised to make traveling uncomfortable over the week-end. The snow was ex pected to fade out on the Atlantic coast early next week. Meanwhile Lander, Wyo., recorded temperatures of 26 degrees below ze ro, Yellowstone Park, 20 below, and Heleiva, Mont., 16. Some California points were colder ! than Point P.arrow, Alaska, North America’s northermost town which was 30 degrees above zero. In New York state and New YorV | City, many hundreds of unemployed men were put to work clearimT*^ streets and highways. g *"• Gets Extortion Note Mrs. S. T.
