REFUSED TO RECOGNIZE DAY
Illegal and Declared It Mis- demeanor to Be Gay.

English Puritans of the seventeenth century guarded against looking upon the rosy side of life.
 Because Christmas is really sur. vival of the Celts Yule, and is not the actual anniversary of the birth of Christ, they refused to countenance Christmas festivities. Not only did they refuse to recognize the day but they made laws to that effect.
 The parliament of 1644 passed an act ordering all law abiding citizens to observe December 25 as a solemn fast. to be spent in silent atonement for previous Christmas days that had passed in riotous living and merry. making.
 Naturally the community did not share in these hard and fast rules, and many turkey was surreptitious. ly killed, and many plum pudding quietly boiled. But woe betide the unfortunate offender against the act were he luckless enough to be dis covered

culture.
 The teachers of the county will be asked to enroll members in the different clubs and to direct the members of the clubs in the study of the government bulletins. The names, ages and addresses of all club members should be sent to the County Superintendent. Each club member will then be sent such bulletins as his or her particular club requires.
 Plans are we'll under way by which two Canning Club Agents for the county may be secured next summer during the canning season. More definite announce ment in regard to this feature of the work will be made later.
 
 In order to give the boys and girls an incentive to do their best, it will be necessary to raise some prize money. This work is of vital importance to the development of the county and feel no hesitancy in assur- ing the boys and girls that such money will be forth coming at the proper time.
 Each teacher in the county will soon receive a copy of Cir cular No. 27. This circular gives all necessary information in re gard to club work.

MONROE COUNTY DEMoNsTRA-
 TION CLUB WORK

During the year 1913, the County Superintendent and the teachers of the county under took to keep alive the interest aroused in club work by the farm demonstrators of the pre- vious year. $31.50 was distribut- ed among the club boys and girls as prize money at the School Fair of that year and the results were such that we felt encouraged to undertake the work again another year in the absence of a farm demonstrator.
 In 1914, we promoted four clubs: Corn Club, Pig Club, Poultry Club and Canning Club. An excellent display of club products at the School Fair amply repaid all our efforts in behalf of the boys and girls. A notable feature of the work this year was a carefully prepared written account of the work done by each club member.
 It was in this year that one of our club boys won Second Con- gressional prize in the Corn Club and one of our girls won second prize in the Cotton Belt Canning Club.
 S124.0O, donated by the Busi- ness Mems League of Claren- don, was distributed as club prize money.
 This year, 1915, the club work was in charge of the County Demonstrator, the teachers and the County Superintendent CO., operating Tn every way pOSsiole. Unfortunately the County Dem onstrator resigned just previous to the date of the School Fair and without making any pro- vision for prize money. l re gret this condition of affairs and l shall take steps to make amends through the existing conditions result from no negligence of mine of the School Fair.
 The exhibits of club products at the School Fair this year was by far the best ever shown at any similar fair in the county. The results obtained in club work so far justify.in my opinion, a greater and more general

To ask girl If you may kiss her before doing 1t is an insulting way of laying all the responsibility on her.
 In mans opinion kiss is an end that justifies any means. You needn't be afraid of mere kiss. Thousands are exchanged daily by people of the highest reputation.
 
 The kissed girl fears no mistletoe. A kiss Is as good as smile-and a good deal better, too!
 The ideal kiss is the kiss that Is never given.
 A kiss too soon may be full stop in the tale of love.
