"Blues" Chased Away As the- erouD denartpd manv faces showed a bit of fenr and j doubt as to the advisability of this long journey into an unknown land, while others radiated a de sire for true adventure. Some were a bit sad because this was their first goodbye to their families for any period of time, Very shortly, however, the "blues" were brush ed aside as the group entered wholeheartedly into harmonizing "On Top of Old Smoky" and all the other ballads and songs that we could remember. The rain that poured on us all the first day didn't dampen our spirits as we arrived at "The Hermitage"' near Nashville, Tenn. For here wc were to see the home place of Andrew Jackson. Some of the boys tried to estimate how long it would take us to reach Texas if we had to use .

Also in Nashville we visited the Parthenon and there we were amazed by the beauty of the Greek architecture. We thoroughly en joyed a birds-eye view of Tennes see's capital city at night, seeing the Capitol, Federal Building, War Memorial Building and the famous Capitol Boulevard, Two Blocks From Texas Most of our second day of trav el showed us the flat lands of West lennessee and Arkansas, Here we saw our first cotton and rice fields. A real thrill came to Us as we crossed the great Mississippi River in Memphis. Our second night was spent in Texarkana, Ark., with the Texas state line just two blocks away. We were up early and pack ed ready to make the "North Caro lina Invasion of Texas". At the city limits of Denton, we were met by the assistant farm and home agents and the city police, who escorted our bus to the city square. A big crowd was there to greet us" and before we got off the bus We introduced ' Ourselves by singing our own composition of "How Do You Do Everybody," and Haywood County's theme song; We were welcomed by the Extension staff, mayor, Chamber of Com merce, and members of the Den ton County 4-H and Home Demons tration .Councils. The entire wel come was broadcast over station KDNT. Ice cream was served by J. B. Thompson at the Dairy Queen! and at the city park we were met by our hosts and hostesses. The fear and doubt which prevailed when we left Haywood County was soon forgotten as we met the smil ing faces of the Texans. Each of the boys, girls and leaders was assigned t0 live in the home of a Ttxas family and we immediately nogan our week of rushed activi ties. On Friday a county tour was ar ranged and we visited ten points of special interest. On the farm of C. W. Tlnney we saw a herd of ninety beautiful registered Aber-deen-Augus beef cattle. Mr. Tinney told us of his farming operations and we learned that he was one of the many Texas farmers whn are great believers in the value of Johnson grass as a food for cattle. To us it had always been a pest and we were happy to see its valu able use.

' A . - . School Was Never Like This We were told how four small schools with poor facilities had been consolidated and with enm bined efforts had constructed this ultra-modern school plant. Especi ally were we interested in how the noisy, quiet and odorous units had been arranged to eliminate confu sion and disorder. All the rooms were painted in beautiful pastel shades and on every side you could hear Haywood County boys and girls saying, "Why can't we have a school such as ' this at home?" The Prairie Mourtd-Lltsv Home Demonstration Club " were hostesses for a delightful picnic lunch served at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Miller Faught, where many special guests and Denton County officials were introduced. Saturday was devoted to farm life and community activities. Sat urday night we had the thrill of a lifetime when we were guests of the Denton Countv Rodeo Assort. ation and saw our first real Texas rodeo. Following the rodeo the en ure group with the r hosta and hostesses were guests of Mr. and Mrs. W. G, Waeeoner at a water. melon slicing, Sing-Sons In Texas a . On Sunday we yisited the local churches in the communities where we were staying. Sunday night the Argyle community entertainnri us with a "Sing-Song". Here the North Carolinians were asked to sing their state song. We werp onmnli. mented very much on the fact that every person participated. The Tex as boys and girls loved the words and the melody and before we left they were joining in with us on the uia worm State . The Arovlo Club gave us little "cowboys" as souvenirs and served delicious home-made ice cream and cake. Following the "Sing-Song" we were guests of the Colonial Then. tre for a movie.
