Each truck driver says his truck will not bring any more- Each teacher says her room will not hold any more. It is not right to shut them out though because they could not enter the first week. They must be provided for; they will. The first meeting of the Parent Teacher Association was held in the school building last 'Thursday night. Judging from the number pf undertakings mentioned for this year, this is going to be a grand and glorious year for our school. After the business was attended to, the refreshment com mittee served a delicious course of ice cream and cake. The com mittee, ardent adherents of the be lief that if a little will do good a lot will do more, had over-estimat ed the audience. As a consequ ence another delicious course of ice cream and cake was served— Jjut the teachers were all back in school the next day. Teachers and pppils wrere ac corded a very warm reception the first week. We hope those sixty three boys and girls who entered school for the first time did not get a False impression of what a school is like._ Give our school elbow' room, an/ it will grow. If it grows any more under the present condi tions it tnight suffer the same catastrophe of the frog in the fable.

C., Sept. 2t.—An invitation will be extended the American Farm Bureau Federa tion to come to North Carolina and help to organize the farmers ». I of the state into one state-wide farm organization. This is the result of the resolu tion passed at the last meeting of I the State Farmers’ Convention, followed by action taken at a meeting held at State College on August 25, and a decision reached at a further meeting held on Thursday, September 9. A sub-committee appointed by Chairman Fred P. Latham yf the general conference worked for several weeks on its report to the conference on September 9. This sub-committee was headed by Dj. Clarence Poe and had studied carefully all of the big national farm organizations as w'ell as con ditions within the state. The committee expressed its cordial appreciation of the work done by all farm organizations. In no way was its action in select ing the American Farm Bureau antagonistic to any other such organization as the Alliance, the Farmers' Union, the Grange or siyiilar federations, but it felt that the American Farm Bureau Federation more nearly fulfilled the requirements of conditions in this state and for that reason, this national body was selected for affiliation. The committee also provided for ah organization committee that will proceed with details of carrying through the spirit of the Farm Convention resolution. The first quarter of 1928, from Janu ary first to April first, was de signated as “Farm Organization Quarter” and all organizations, county agents, home agents, school teachers and others in terested in the continued welfare of farming in the State will he isked to take part lit the work. No organization work will he ione in any community or county jntil the local agricultural leaders ire consulted. It pays to advertise in The Messenger.
