Major Graham's many Warrenton' and
Warren county friends are glad to

every good thing may attend him in
:hi5 military career.
Captain E. C. Price it now is, and
it is a man of soldiery bearing and
ability who vail guide the destinies
of Company II. Captain PricV-enter-
ed Company H. as a private several
years ago. Since that time he has
risen by marie and ability to the Cap

COUNTY
I
ASSOCIATION
mil
A county State Normal Alumni As
sociation has been formed.
A number of normal alumni met
at the home of Mr. J. A. Dameron at
four-thirty Wednesday and organized
with the following officers: Mi3s
Mariam Boyd, of Warrenton, presi
dent; Mrs. A. C. Blzseil, of. Norlina,
vice- president; Miss Mary Powell, of
Macon, secretary and treasurer.
This Association is & unit inthe
State-wide "Alumni Association of the
Normal, and is organized to aid in
th work of this State Association.
The question of the advisability of
placing women upon local school
boards was discussed. It was pointed
out that in-many -statsa that women
were holding positions on school
boards, and that wherever th:3 was
the cace educational progress was in
evidence. This question will bo thor
oughly gone into, and it is hoped by
the Association that women as mem-'
bers of our local school board.3 may
be in evidence in our county very soon
Another question which the local
Association is much interested i3 that
dealing with the difference in salar
ies between men and women. The
question of "equal pay for equal work"
is always' a live one, and there is ho
field - wherein there is as much need
for a readjustment of the salary basis
than that found in the teaching pro
fession. The Association can do great things
for Warren and the teachers of the
County, and it is believed that it will
be an active, progressive and helpful
body. -
The gathering and the perfection 0f
the organization arising therefrom is
due the efforts cf Miss Julia Dameron.
Miss Dameron is a graduate of the
Normal, a splendid teacher, and a
woman who is always active in pro
ducing educational progress.
TRE ROUGH, HARD SPOTS
"othe hardest .thing first," is the
met to; "hanging "above the "desk of a
very successful business man. . This
man has told me that that single
short sentence has wronght a revolu
tion in his life. "One day I suddenly
realized," ho said, "that I had fallen
into-the h&it of nutiine off unDlsas-
ant duties and evading disagreeable
or difficult tasks, until the ghosts of
them blocked my jpath at every turn.
I put up that motto where I could not
help seeing it, and set myself to bring
each day's work in line with it. The
firijt day I began on the duties I had
kept pushing aside, the long-deferred,
long over-due tasks, that had been
pufc out of sight in favor of the easy,
pleasant things. When at length i
had cleared my path, I made it a nns
to begin each morning
h morning at the biggest
toughest job in the whole day's work
before me. I gave my freshest ef
forts to the kind of work I had pre
viously put off tne longest, and before
a great while I found that what used
to loem up before me like a mountain
of difficulty, when handled with ener
gy and determination, 'was really very
tH I 13 llSf 51
simple and comparatively easy. It is ( increased yearly, and especially be
ta the forming of thisjiebit to do the .cause, of the necessity for the very
hardest thing first, more than to any- best farming at this time, the ojTcin.!j
thing else, that I owe what is called 'of the Convention arc confront all
success.'
A great

life for no ether reason than

pacing, dreading work is fatal to ef
ficiency, and cuts off the largest per
centage of one's pevrer. The con
sciousness that there is always some
disagreeable thing ahead, waiting to
be done, affects the" disposition anoc
makes one fractius and irritable. The
mind is al30 injuriously affected. It
loses its elasticity, its freshness and
buoyancy.
The great failure army is filled with
men and women who from their youth
up shrank from all the difficult or un
pleasant tasks in life. It i3 as foolish
to do this as it would be to shrink
from all physical exercise, from using
our muscles and faculties. It is only
by use, by e3Tort, by exertion, that
grow. In the last analysis, experience
is our only asset.
Doing the hardest things first does
not, mean that it is always possible
or advisable to pick out the difficult
things in our work and do them out
cf their order. It simply means that
one should not skip the hard things

Sc. A COPY
FOOD G8SYE3iTfOH
Raleigh, August 2 Arrangements
are rapidly being completed for the
fifteenth annual Farmers' and Farm
Women's State Convention, which will
be held at the State College of Agri
culture and Engineering, beginning
Tuesday morning, August 28th, at 8
o'clock and ccrtinuing until Thursday
noon, .August SC'th. It is expected
that not less than 1,000 farmers and
farm women will attend the Conven
tion this year. The attendance last
year was more than 700.
The Convention, always a source of
inspiration and instruction and at
tended by earnest men and women
from .all sections of the State, will this
year be more of a working prof jsi
tion even than usual. Because cf the
critical food situation through on fc t!:.?
Nation and the world, the central idea
at the Convention will "bo food pro
duction and conservation s-.nd the far
mers of the Stato from the Coastal
Plains to the Blue Ridgs viil have an
opportunity to learn by lecture and
demonstration the why and hor of the
production of all food and feed crops
suitable for their respective sectaor.3.
The mornings will be devoted mo
sectional meetings for the men in
which actual class room instruction
and laboratory instructions will Lc
given. This is something of a depar
ture from the custom of the pact but
will no doubt be worth" much More to
those who come to the Convention .to
learn. On the afternoons of Tuesday
and Wednesday ihcre v.'iil be Joint ses
sions cf the Men's and Women's Con
vention at which time some of the
best speakers obtainable will address
tho5:e present upon vital topics -bearing
directly upon the part of North
Carolina men and women and the pro
duction and oonservation of food and
feed. The evening sessions will be
given over to one lecture each evening
and to motion pictures;.
The Convention this year will par
take considerably more of the nature
of a short course of agriculture and
live stock instruction - than'. has., been
the custom heretofore. The farmer
will be given an .opportunity to get
authoritative infonnaticn on any farm
problem and to witness actual demon
strations in many instances. There
will be several sections going all hours
cf the morning so that the farmer will
! -e able to g at the information he de
bires on a pa 'ticular ;suLiect without
listening to rther sub-ice 1 3 which
might not interest hrr Among 'Joe
subjects for instruction and demon
stration will be: Swine, L.ef Cattle,
Dairy Cattle and Poultry, S"cd Selec
tion, Preparing Seed, etc.
All the railroads are giving special
rates for the Convention good from
August 26tn to September 2na. The
.'expense of the Convinticn to those
,v'" attend will "be very smrll--the
college provide" dormitory room with
out charge and meals at a cost of only
25c each. Ail who attend, however,
vilKbe required to bring tbsir own
. ked sheets, pillows, tcvels and nccas-
sary toilet artiiles.
Not only the attendance but the
.helpfulness of the Convention has bcn
previous records will bz L-raashrd.
