Superintendent Shambaugh said he
has been more or less disappointed at
the lack of interest in the corn con-
test. "Many of the teachers told me"
said he, that the boys fathers laugh

small piece of ground to till. To my
mind the teacher personally should
have gone to the parent and explained
the situation. 1 believe most of Dau-

Coming from that period to the
present, 1t is interesting to note that
Tuskegee now has more than / 500
students, and several hundred chill
dren besides in the training school.
Nearly 200 officers, teachers and help
ers are employed on the place, and
since 1882 about 0,000 men and wom-
en- have been sent forth to do good
work in the uplift of the race.
More than forty trades or indus
tries are taught at the school. There
has been no serious race problem in
central Alabama and a good many
other sections of the South since
Booker t. Washington started things
going at Tuskegee. The plant is now
worth about S2,000,0OO.
In addition to his prominence as an
educator. he gained considerable fame
as an author. An honorary degree of
master of arts was conferred upon
him by Harvard University in 1896,
and in 1901 he was given an honorary

TO DECIDE CORN
CONTEST in FEB.
County Superintendent Sham
baugh, Maps Out New Plan
For Students
RURAL LIFE DAY" DEC. 3
Prizes to Be Awarded at Coun-
ty Directors Association
Meeting
RURAL LIFE DAY" DEC. 3


Dauphin countys first annual school
corn contest will be finally decided at
the meeting of the county school
directors convention in February.
Prof. f. f. Shambaugh, county
superintendent, announced this plan
to-day in explaining the system of
judging by elimination in order to
determine which of the scores OF
young student farmers of the county
have produced the best specimen of
corn. The same system will be fol-
lowed out every year.
Friday, December 8, will be Pat
rons' and Rural Life Day in all the
county schools. The rooms will be
prettily decorated with corn, pump
kins, sheaves of wheat and other
products similar to the fashioned
harvest home" celebrations that are
still feature of many Fall church
services. Incidentally there will be
programs of addresses, music, ETC.,
appropriate to the occasion.
The Individual Displays
The big feature however will be the
individual corn displays by the boys
in each room. Every boy farmer who
has raised corn for the county con-
test will bring ten ears of the choicest
variety to school. The best in each
room will be selected by a committee
of practical farmers appointed by the
teacher for the purpose and theil
selections will be exhibited at the next
district teachers institute. From the
institute display the first and second
best exhibits will be chosen for finaI
exhibition at the county directors
meeting in February. And from this
exhibition, the winning boy corr
grower of Dauphin county will be
picked out
Not boys exhibits alone, however
may be judged according to Prof
Shambaugh. If there be any girl en-
trants, their displays will be consider,
ed also.
Whether or not prizes will be giVer
hereafter to the best corn growers has
not been definitely decided, Professor
Shambaugh said to-day, but is pos
sible that only certificates of merit
will be awarded.
