RAN AWAY, EH? l'M GOING TO TAKE YOU BACK. TO THE FARM----. Pretty Girl Says Farm Real Place On Which To Live Young Club Girl. Trite Winner, Tells What Farm Life Is. (By Virginia Terrell Lathropi The country Is the place for real living, according to the creed of Ruth Alexander, of Fletcher, out standing 17-year-old club girl of Western North Carolina, who. In seven years has accumulated prices on cooking, canning, sewing and ta ble service; who has been twice president of her local club; dele gate from her club to two short courses at State college, and one of the four delegates from North Car olina to the 4-H encampment at Washington; who this year wen the U. D. C. prize for the best es say written in the Falrview school, who has for two years been a mem ber of her school debating team, a member of, the girls’ basketball team; who likes to swim, ride horse back, play bridge, drive a car, make her own clothes and hats and cook —and loves the country. That is what Ruth enjoys doing, after deciding that a girl who lives in the country is happier than the girl who lives in the city. And she goes Marion Talley one better in that she enjoys actually living the life of the farm, not necessarily owning it. Prior to taking Hip club work sev en years ago, Ruth's ambition was to come to the city and be a teacher or a nurse. Now, try and get Ruth to the city! instead, ner ammtion now is to go to college and learn to be a Home Demonstration agent, and go back to the country. So she told the North Carolina Bankers at their convention in Asheville. Ruth is al so quite public speaker. This is the second time she has been Invited to address the bankers and tell them about club work. And how does a girl on the farm spend her day? "That’s easy,” answers Ruth. “We get up about six o’clock, and help with the cooking and housework, and we have a prospect for beau tifying our rooms and yards, and we have club meetings and picnic, and I have chickens of my own, and there’s canning to be done—why a day isn’t long enough!” Ruth is one of the most modest girls it has ever been the privilege of a Girl’s Club to send forth. The fact that she is a member of her school chorus, and has made some of the highest grades in school on her class work would go unsung if one were not persistent. For to Ruth there is nothing unusual in all of her activities. It is ih keeping busy that she finds life so full of interest. She cannot understand how city people amuse themselves. They do so few things that are, to her, vital in the enjoyment of life. They have cooks and maids, and they are cramped in small houses and apart ments. They find their amusement in riding around and going to shows. And that adds Ruth, is fine for a vacation. The Fairview Club girl is oae of the pioneer club members of Wes tern Nortlr Caroline. She started her work so long ago that there were only agricultural clubs for boys and girls. The sewing, millin ery, house planning, yard planting, table service, cooking, canning—all of these were yet to come. Ruth, with her vision of becoming a school teacher in a big city school, or a nurse In a big city hospital still bright, Joined a poultry club. She w as oply ten, but she started brave ly with a brood of chickens, and in a short time had fifty. The interest in poultry has never died though there has died the thought of school teaching or nursing. Many more activities opened up gradually for the club girls, as Mrs. Jane McKimmon, State Home Dem onstration agent, extended her work Ruth learned that a pretty room was not acquired at the expense of a lot of money, she got green paint, and under the direction of the county agent, painted her fur niture. Then she made new cur tains, hung new pictures, made new linen, and re-arranged the fur niture. She took a project of yard beautification, and found that all beauty of the home was not con fined to the inside. All this time, the Falrview Club was growing rapidly, reaching a membership of eighty girls, with Ruth as president for two years. They took sewing lessons, with the result that they made their own clothes. Recently they had a con test, giving a prise to the girl who designed, bought, and made the prettiest dress for a dollar. The course In millinery taught them to make their own hats. But the more vital parts of farm j life were not neglected. The fruit and vegetables oq the farm must be kept for winter months, and the 1 When you think of vacation, think of CAROLINA . STORES and good things to eat.

Ruth has such a collection of i blue ribbons from community and western North Carolina fairs, that she has lost count of them. But still the girls wanted to learn more. They wanted to know how to plan the proper meals for their f&m ilies. and how to serve them. This year the Pairview club took as its project the planning, buying, cook ing and serving of four meals, breakfast, lunch, dinner, and party refreshments. The meals were pre pared and served in the Agricultur al building of Fairview school. So successful had been the club's work In table service that they sent a demonstration team to the Fair. Ruth was a member of the team, and they won the prize. “What is the commonest crime among literary men?" asks The Literary Digest. Writing—Tampa Tribune.
