The Chamber of Commerce is working in cooperation with the 4-H club project, in connection with our State Test Farm, and has made a large contribution towards the development of this project, which will bring 2,500 boys and girls to the farm and to Waynesville during the summer months. Two hundred will come every week for instruc tion in farming and agriculture, from 18 Western Carolina counties. This will necessitate buildings for housing, classes, dining hall, recre ation, etc. The Test Farm is one of our biggest assets and should be shown consideration and co operation by our communities and organizations.

MISTLETOE IS MORE NEEDED THAN HOLLY ANYWAY You are going to have to hunt up a substitute for holly this year, says the Agriculture department The Eastern producing areas are almost wholly without holly due to last Spring's severe frosts and the subsequent heavy rains.

Mrs. Dollie Conard, were arrested on Tuesday of last week, tried in Superior court on the following day and sentenced to not less than one year and not more than four in state's prison for shoplifting. The police department had been notified early Tuesday morning that the two women who were suspected of theft were in town shopping. They were followed from store to store. In one grocery store one of them dropped a can of fruit and rushed to another department as she saw a member of the police force looking at her as she was about to take the can. the officer said. After making the rounds of the stores, the women, laden with their bundles, went into a local eat'ng place around noon and ordered sandwiches and drinks, to refresh themselves after their strenuous morning. In a casual manner a member of the city police strolled in and sat at the table with the two women and started an innocent conversation, which eventually led to condemning evidence of the shopping expedition. In the course of the lonversa tion there was mention made of a leather jacket. The policeman asked where it had been purchased nd from whom. TUe woman who had the jacket gave him the name of the store and also that of the clerk. The policeman asked her if she would mind going with him to the store and identifying the clerk. She agreed without hesitation, though she was beginning to show signs of nervousness. She led hini to the store and to the clerk, but the clerk stated that he had not made the sale, and that the jacket bad not been sold by his firm. The women also had a number of other articles that could not be authentically accounted for, as to where they had been purchased. In the meantime the policeman having been notified by the man agement of the store that had lost the leather jacket, walked with the women down town, presumably back to where they had started from, but their destination, whether or not they suspected it. led them to the courthouse, and eventually to the jail on the third floor. The case was brought to trial on Wednesday afternoon with the verdict in favor of the plaintiffs.

POSSESSIONS OK "THE hllIEK" PUT UP ON AUCTION BLOCK Bobby-soxers of the silent screen age will remember most vibrantly the heart-pulser . . . the romantic hero of "The Shick", and other sure-fire heart palpitalors. Prob ably no other screen actor has so completely captivated the feminine world as did Rudolph Valentino and only his untimely death ended a career of such magnitude. But now his valued possessions arc going under the hammer and very few will appreciate the asso ciations. Jeweled swords, rare books, antique silver, paintings and a $10,000 custom built grand piano were among the mementos of the late shick that went under the auc tioneer's hammer. Many ictizens of Argentina think they have a strong man now, and those around here who sniff the breeze from the south arc inclined to agree. Boston Globe.
