Last Friday Night

Seventy homes in which there
are sick folk and shut-ins were
visited by singers last Friday
night, who sang Christmas an
thems and brought cheer to the
hearts of the people. At the re-
quest of the women's organiza-
tions of the town, following sug-
gestion by Mrs. D. F. Young,
hundreds of homes had lights
burning in the windows. Where
all were we'll, white lights sent
out their glow, and where there
was sickness or shut-ins, red
lights beckoned to the singers to
come and visit there. Seventy
such homes were visited by sew
en- quartets.
The program Christmas eve is
aforerunner to a Municipal Christ
mas tree next year, which is to
be provided in Maryville. The
singers met at the store of D. F.
Young at 5 o'clock, and from
there proceeded to various parts
of the town. Automobiles were
provided by Mr.. Cupp, R. E.
Goddard, D. F. Young, Joe Nc
Mutt, Prof. Curtis, and Prof.
Henry.
The quartet occupying Mr..

In Mr.. Goddard's car rode the

PIG CLUB BOYS, CAN
YOU LEAD FATHERS?

At Kentucky fair two pure
bred Duroc Jersey litter mates
were shown. One belonged to a
pig-club boy, the other to his
father. Both purchased their
pigs at 8 weeks old. Both start
ed even. ~.
The records of the boy show
his pig weighed 27 pounds at that
time. Within the next four
months she had gained 167 pounds
at a cost of 5 cents a pound; or
l 2-5 pounds daily gain on a
ration of corn, flour, shorts, and
buttermilk. The fathers pig,
unrecorded, shifted for herself.
At the fair the boys SOW weigh
ed 1914 pounds and was a prize
winner; the fathers weighed
50 1-2pounds.
Another father selected pig
from the same litter as did his
two pig-club sons. His pig was
put in pen and fed corn. The
two pig-club boys followed In
structions and fed properly bal
anced rations and used pasture.
At the fair the fathers pig
weighed a little over 50 pounds;
the prize-winning hogs of the
boys averaged over 200 pounds
each. The sons know it cost
them A IL cents a pound to pro-
duce their hog; the father does
not know what his hog cost.

County Court
Meets Monday
New Chairman To Be
Chosen And Other
Matters Disposed
Of

The January term of the county
court will be held next Monday.
A chairman for the year will be
chosen. The only two who have
made announcement of their
candidates. are w. H. Willard
and G. D. Roberts. Both of
these gentlemen are we'll known
throughout the county, and either
will make a good chairman for
the court. Squire Willard lives
in Maryville, and Squire Roberts
at Cades Cove.
1t is not known what action
will be taken concerning the ap-
preparation to provide for county
agent. A committee was named
at the last term of court to in
vestigate and report on the ad-
visibility of the suggestion that
the county augment the amount
provided by the state and national
governments for placing an ex-
pert agricultural agent in the
county. The court will make
mistake not to take advantage of
this opportunity and help make
the farms in Blount county better.
The republican executive COM
mittee will hold a meeting Mon
day and fix a date for the pri-
mary. 1t is expected these two
gatherings will attract a large
crowd to town.
