died percent. The effort of Ida Bat
tie Club Secretary and Mr. 11. (.?.!
Ferguson, local leader for the club;
are' geiting some splendid results.!
The interest of parents in Qualla;

Mis. Paul Ferguson Mr. I/. C. Oagle
and Mr. .1. II. Weaken all of whom
attended the club merlin*; with their
Inns and girls and brought the neigh

County Airenl C. \V. Tilson says it
holds good throughout the United
States in club work that wherever
you find a boys and girls club doing
1 good active work you' will find
'joint local leader and parents tlint
me really interested in their boys
and' jrirls. And wherever you find
buys ,:ifid girls living on the farm
that are not interested in farm life
and their own community their par-|
eii'.s , are lietrleetin'*; their responsi
bility ai'yl causing tlteir own com
viutl?iit\ t*^ go backwards in every-1
thiiiy; necessary lor building up an
ideal community.
The progestin !lt 'his meeting con-|
sisted of a field study of the benn|
bug and how to control it; and a!
study and discussion ol the poultry
demonstration Ruth is carrying outj
with a standard brooder, brooder
house and 250 Barred Rock chicksj

active part in the discussion and;
]>lans d'dr the club encampment and;
assured the boys ami irirls that theyl
would lake them to the camp, visit|
them and join in camp life for a day

MONDAY IS DOLLAR DAY
SYLVA-MERCHANTS MAKE
Monday, July 12tli, Sylva, through the co-op
eration of a large number of the shops of the town
and the Jackson County Journal, is instituting the
first Municipal Dollar Day.
The plan has been used with entire success to
the people of the trade territory and the mer
chants, in many sections of The United States, for
yejars, and has proved to be a source of profit to
the people who buy, as there are always many one
dollar offerings made, that can not be duplicated
ordinarily. ?? 1
%/ * **
It makes the buyers' dollar go further and buy
more.
It gives the people who spend an opportunity
to get the most for a dollar.
The Sylva Dollar Da}^ will be no exception to
the rule. It is expected that'there will be big
crowds of people in town, to take advantage of the
offerings ma'de, and that both the buyers and the
shop keepers will profit by the big volume of
trade..
