help The CORN CLUBS.
Appeal Made by the Supervisor ii b.
half Of the Prize List.

To the Citizens Of Lawrence ca:
We are arousing an interest n
Boys Corn Clubs and Good Roadt
but we are lacking In funds fok
prizes.
Will not the public spirited cit1-
lens come to our aid7
We have divided the county In
to 10 Corn Club districts and ths
Good Roads into districts.
By having 19 corn club districtp
and awarding LIST, End and sra
prizes in each of the 10 districlp
the prizes are distributed to Al
parts of the county.
! find that this plan is encour-
aging the boys as they feel thp
prizes are brought within the reach
of all sections of the county.
There are 8 Educational Divisions
in Lawrence, hence the 8 Good
Road districts.
The school boys, after school
open, win be encouraged to build
100 yards of road near each schoot
will be awarded in each of the
Educational Divisions. Therefore u
requires 81 prizes in the Corn Clubs
and "a for Good Roads, total o.
81 prizes.
The boys in each corn club ara
in competition against the boys Of tha
club only. bt4l
The schools of one Educational
Division are in competition with the
other schools of the same divisioA
only hence not county prize hnp
been offered as yet.
| II we can raise sufficient funds
there will be osme county prizes Of
fered SO as to bring the different
parts of the county into competitions
for something like q sweepstakes
prize, or prizes.
There will be 19 men selected -
act as president in the - corn clufA
4 one man for each club district, who
will assist the County Supervisor p
his prize awarded to the one who
has the largest corn club In -
county.
The amount of the prize win -
announced later.
4 make special appeal to "a
public spirited citizens to help THE
work by giving liberal cash donn-
tons.
: Receipts will be given and names
of ones donating, with the amount
given will be published from time
to time.
This is the way to encourage the
boys. They will appreciate the prizes
and you will be glad to be counted
as one who cheered them In their
contest.
q Meetings held the past week {.

House, Blaine. Charlie and Gallup.
