The iflea was approved by all, and the club was organized at this time. The following officers were elected: Miss Weeta Piercy, president; Alexander Mull, vice- president; and Miss Irene Walker, secretary. The following students were enrlled: From McDowell: Miss Dorothy Atkins, Marion; Miss Edith Daves, Dysartsville; Miss Dessie Marlowe, Nealsville; and Miss Irene Walker and Ben Jaynes, Nebo.

It is safe to say that many of the great industrial localities of the fu ture will be towns that today are little more than names on the map. Electric power has given rural America a glimpse of new vistas of social and industrial progress and prosperity.—The Manufacturer. A treat for moving picture pat rons is announced by Marion Thea tre next Monday and Tuesday when they will show CLARA BOW in “DANGEROUS CURVES”. EXTERMINATE THE RAT AND SAVE MUCH MONEY The filthy wharf rat as he is known in North Carolina is not one of the so-called necessary evils with which citizens are supposed to live in communal bliss but is a pest that can and should be exterminated. “The Norwegian rat can be erad icated successfully and his ravages checked by systematic and careful campaigns of extermination,” says C. D. Schwartz, biologist of the United States Biological Survey, who is now working with the State College Extension Sevvice. “During the colder months of the year, the rat congregates in buildings and it is at this time that his damage is more noticeable and when control campaigns may be more effectively conducted.” Mr. Schwartz is at present con ducting a number of campaigns in several cities of the state to demon strate how the rat may be controlled In November, February and March, he has arranged campaigns in Dur ham, Winston-Salem and Salisbury. Follow-up work in eight other cities and towns will be done in December and January to study the results se cured in campaigns already conduc ted. Mr. Schwartz believes that the control of rats is a community af fair and that if a comprehensive campaign of poisoning and trapping is put on, the rat population may be heavily reduced. Fannei’s lose con- .siderable grain and other feedstuffs each winter by the ravages of this pest. Then too the rodent is a filthy animal, carrying disease germs and &poiling much food which he does not consume. Any community wishing to con duct a rat campaigrn may secure facts from the biologist. In some cases, he would be available person ally for handling the actual work. Mr. Schwartz says interest has been evinced, in many communities in this work of eradication, and it is becom ing oi^e of the tasks of cities and health departments in improving sanitary and economic conditions. SMALL TOWN’S FUTURE Electricity is giving every town an opportunity to become a city. In the past great industrial concerns have been forced to locate in the congested centers of population be cause of the necessity of rradily available power. The small plants common in towns and villages could not be counted i^pon for unremit ting, efficient and economical ser vice. As a result, the small town was ^n industrial nonentity. The development of intei.»nnec- ted electrical systems and the conse quent decrease in small, local plants is rapidly changing all this. Now thousands of towns receive the same high-grade service, at the same low rate, that is provided in great cities. And many of them are gradually coming into prominence as idustrial centers. The small town can offer the ad- Start a friendly little habit that will pay. Read advertisements in this paper.

Use a doctor’s prescription called Thoxine guaran teed to relieve with the vary first swallow. Gargles and salves are too slow and if they do relieve, it is us ually only temporary.
