In order for pupils to attend regularly they must like school. The ■ work must be made interesting for them to choose to go to school instead !of staying at home or playing hook ' ey. The school work in the schools is | not perfect by any means but the ' quality of work being done is better ■ than any session which the school i have had. The schools made the following percentage of average daily attend ance: Bostic, 99.67; Alex'der, 96.10; Cool Springs High, 94.3; Pleasant Grove, 93.7; Forest City, 91.5. Bostic headed the list with 112 pu- j pils enrolled, no pupils tardy and 109 of the 112 did not miss a day. This record shows that the pupils have j been attending school very" good this j session. In order for a room to get a half i holiday at the end of the month, pu-I pils in the room must have made an j average daily attendance of 95 per j cent and have no tardies during the month. Several people in Forest City have , asked about a course in commercial j work for boys and girls who are not j in school.

B.—A boil weevil control method that always pays good returns where it is possible to use it, is the killing or plowing under ; of cotton stalks before frost. "There will be fewer boll weevil to live through the winter if the cot ton stalks can be destroyed before the weevils go into hibernation quar ters which is at the time of frosts," says C. H. Brannon, extension ento mologist at State College. "Unless the weevil obtains plenty of food just before entering winter quarters, the pest will not live through the winter months. For that season, it is impera tive that every cotton grower should promptly destroy the stalks as soon as the cotton has been picked." The earlier this can be done, the better. If the cotton stalks cannot be plowed under before frost, sow a green cover crop such as Abruzzi I rye, oats, barley or some legume in j the rows and iater cut or knock down ithe standing cotton stalks, j But this is not an individual mat ter, cautions Mr. Brannon. To make the system of control most effective, growers should cooperate by commun ities and whole counties. It is prob ably useless for one grower to kill or plow under his stalks and his neighbor across the road to leave his standing until frost kills the leaves and immature bolls. The field so left becomes a fattening ground for all the weevils in the section. They will then go into winter quarters well fed and be able to survive the severe weathers with a lower percent of de struction. Mr. Brannon states that following this method of weevil control, probab ly pot so much poisoning will be needed next season and the cotton will be freer from the attacks of the pests early in the year. The method is doubly important this fall because the past season has been the most ideal for the weevil since he came into the State in 1919. Mr. Hoyle Callahan spent Sunday in Sharlotte. Lee, Otis, Clyde, Edgar, Ernest, Carl Ollis, Rona, Doris, Minnie, Dorcas, Geneva, Gladis and Docia. » Tires Galore!
