We thought Sexton, of Monteagle,
was ''shore' going to say raise chick
ems and vegetables that will take a
premium, but he didn't get any furth-
er than election. Anyway our vege-
tables, chickens, canned fruits, pre-
serves, embroidery and fancy work are
deserving of a premium. Sequachee
valley girls can do anything, Every
known science and art seems to be rep
resented.
Melville Turner, Jr., says he ex-
poets to get the premium on a $50 calf.
Lynn Clyde Pryor says if the ladies
decide to build their hall in connec-
tion with the ball park, he's good for
$25. Quite a number of ladies have
subscribed $40 each There is as much
enthusiasm shown by the ladies as the
boys show in the matter of a ball park.
Ladies are not to be outdone by the
boys. Now, if the men are not to be
outdone by the ladies, those fair build
ings will start up next week.
We made the mistake of our lives
when we failed to learn short hand. If
we could have taken down some of the
eloquent fair speeches we have heard
