Part of each one's expenses | were paid by their home club which they represented. We were in the care of Mr. C W Tilson, county agent We were met in Asheville by fif teen members from Buncombe county. After riding ail morning until one o'clock we stopped in Shelby and ate our lunch. We saw many beauti ful places of interest and large peach orchards and cotton crops. We were planning on reaching Ral eigh by six or seven o'clock that evening, but we soon learned that by taking bo many detours we would reaeh Raleigh later than we had ex-, pec ted. Once we started the wrong road and had traveled 17 miles be j fore we beeame aware of the fact that we had been .directed wrong, but we were soon straightened 'out and on our way again. When we drove up at the State College were were met by Miss Wal lace, Mrs. Ellis, J Mi.

Our breakfast was served at seven o'clock eaeh morning. After break fast and before dinner we had three classes. The subjects were music, food and health, clothing room improve ment, and culture. We could choose any three of these classes. It was very hard to decide which to take, for all were very interesting, but at last all was setted and we all at tended oar three chosen classes each morning for the week we spent there. These classes were taught each morn ipg by different teacher*: ?HC*es?r Home demonstration agenta of tafe different counties of North Carolina. There were over four hundred girls to be divided up for these classes, this causing each class to be verj large. . The boys studied sheep, dairying, bogs; farm crops; soils and poultry, and other farm subjects. After dinner we had one hour for rest, then came the most exciting event of the day. All the boys and girls met out on the campoB and were divided into four differ** groups, each group consisting of from one hundred and fifty to two bund rde members. These were in the care of some member of the faculty and farm and horaje agents., and each group was assigned a different tour for each afternoon of that week. On these tours we went to the capitol and went all through it and all over the grounds.; froml here we went to the State museum. This was one of the most interesting places that we visited. Before visiting this museum one eould not imagine there being so many different things in our state. I looked very carefully to sec if I could find anything from our county and to my glad surprise 1 found that Jackson county abeut as well represented as any other coun ty. I found different kinds of China clay that was taken from 4nd some beautiful scenes at White aide. One thing that attracted my at tention most was a little old Indian birch canoe. It looked as if it migh have been hundreds of years oW. The bark had pulled loose and curled up, on one end was writing that was most faded out. And it was very intent iue to see all the different animal* a7d birds and snakes that have been found in our state. ' After leaving this we were taken to one of the most beautiful churcW you could imagine. This Himeh is said to be the third church in Ameir id, in beauty. W? w??
