life of the town. Scarcely a public
program of interest is without their
assistance in some way. At a recent
Farmers Federation picnic held in
Old Fort and attended by 1200 peo
ple from all over the county, the
NYA girls were awarded first place
in the singing groups, and for
prize were presented twenty new

E. C. JOHNSON TAKEN BY j During the month of August the
DEATH AT EAST MARION NYA girls at Old Fort are sponsor
ing a series of square dances which
are given at the Community build
ing. The dances have been so popu
lar that members of the Chamber of
Commerce have requested a contin
uance of them through the fall
months as a social feature in the
life of the‘town.
Everything undertaken is not only
an activity but a learning project,
and is designed as a vocational
guidance to later work. In the new
three months’ project proposal are
given weekly lessons in Home-mak
ing, Sewing, and Salesmanship.
Along with these, work in weaving,
drafting new patterns for rugs and
other handicraft is carried on. The
foreman and three girls are planning,
to spend a day at the Penland Work
Shop within the next two weeks.
They are learning much about how
to live, how to conduct themselves as
constructive citizens how to work
together in harmony, observing al
ways graciousness and friendliness
in the treatment of each other, and
are happy in doing it.
