It was June time, it was noon time, Twas clear and pleasant weather. Thirty years had passed and gone, Since we at home had greeted, Each other, at the festive board, Or at its leaf been seated. But somehow, through these fleeting years The heart strings had been strain ing, ' And tears sometimes would fill our eyes And leave a trace of staining. . i ! .

The urge of sweet impelling love Had brought us home together, 1?rnm n'pr tti rUctant Viill anM T1a!n ( t And somehow, at old .Burningtown, On that rarest, sweet June day, We forgot all about our cares And empires far away, And only thought of childhood joys Before that sad dark day, Which called to distant lands and climes, Those with whom we used to play. So we held a great reunion, At mother's dear sweet home, On the banks of the Burningtown, For all the folks who roam;. And we held a festive greeting That was pleasant to behold, And the bliss of this reunion Spread Jo all the young and old. But I'm thinking of the future, On the sunny banks of time, Where we'll hold a grand reunion In a. sweeter, better clime, Of home and heaven and mother, Where we'll never say good by, When we hold that grand reuion, In the big homey in the sky. j Club Women Plan For Four Booths The meeting of the Women's club was called for -Monday, June 30, in stead of the regular time, July 7, in order that the plans for the Fourth of July might be completed. The main object of the Women's club at present is to raise the neces sary funds for the building of a com munity club house, and as one means of .raising these unds it was decided to erect refreshment booths at various points on Main street, at which booths sandwiches, cold drinks, ice cream and cake will be sold July 4. Committees have been appointed to take charge of' these booths, three of which will be on the public square, and the other on the lot next to Anne's Gift Shoppe. Since the community house, when built, will be for the use and benefit not only of the town, but of . the county at large it is hoped the club will have the cooperation and pat ronage of the public. T0BACC0PB1S BOTHERGROVER County Agent Sloan Tells How To Eradicate Bud Worms Bud worms and cutworms are the predominant tobacco pests with which Macon county farmers are having to contend, according to County Agent F. S. Sloan. These pests, Mr. Sloan says, are the chief destroyers of to bacco in Western North Carolina. "Tobacco bud worm damage," said Mr. Sloan, "is caused by the corn ear worm. The best known control is the poisoned corn meal bate, pre pared from one pound of arsenate of lead added to SO pounds of corn meal. Bait in small amounts may be pre pared by adding six heaping tea spoonfuls of arsenate of lead to one peck of corn meal. The poison should be "carefully '-mixcd'ivithlmcal'"' without Mrs. McCrackcn Dies In Knoxville Mrs. Frank McCrackcn, formerly of Franklin, died at St. Mary's hos pital in Knoxville, Tenn,, last Friday from a blood clot in the heart.

ShOUlOT DC appilVU tU- tH.ir avrr: "Make applications early in the morning when the tobacco bud is op en. A small pinch of poison should be dropped into the center of the bud. Best results will be obtained by placing the bait directly on the tip of the plant. Applications should be begun 10 days or two weeks after the plants are set in the field,' and should be repeated every week or 10 days until the plants are topped." Mr. Sloan said that it is important that applications , begin early. No substitute should be used for corn meal, the county agent emphasized, as the worm prefers corn to tobac co, and only arsenate of lead should be used for poison. An excellent bait to kill cutworms, Mr. Sloan 'said, is one pound of Par is green mixed with 50 pounds of wheat bran and enough water to mois ten the mixture. "The bran and poison," according to the county agent, "should first be mixed in a tub while thoroughly dry, and should -.then be moistened with water until the bran is damp. The bran should be wet enough to crumble readily in the hand, but should not be sticky and by no means should be a soft mush. The bait should be broad cast late in the afternoon at the rate of 15 to 20 pounds (dry weight) an acre. It will be effective for several days, but, should be repeated at once after a heavy rain. Do not allow poultry in a poisoned field."
