By S. A. Tuten
Assistant Farm Agent
E. L. Norton, District Exten
sion Agent, N. C. State College,
was guest speaker at the Annual
4-H Club Achievement Day Pro
gram held in the County court
house last Saturday. In his brief
but inspiring talk, he encouraged
the club members to live more in
accordance with their club pledge.
He related a story about an an
jcient ruler who was seeking a
place to hide the key to happy
I and satisfying living. The ruler
, considered the highest peak? the
j deepest ocean, and the inner re
cesses of the earth, but concluded
that man would some day reach
those extremes and recover the
Key. Finally, he decided to hide
it in man's own heart. The place
where man would least expect
to find it. "So,” Mr. Norton con
cluded," today we all have the
key, and it's up to us to use it."
i John W Lilley, President of
4-H Club Council, presided. The
! program commenced with invo
cation by Rev. T. L. Hastings. R

group to Williamston. Jimmy!
