Bouyed up by bright sunshine and
balmy spring aid Sunday hundreds of
people traversed wildwood, meadow

search by the rare redoience of the
wild honeysuckle and other flowers.
Late in the day the weary but happy
flower hunters came home burdened
the bright hues of the rainbow, ma
ture in her own way ha>4Es bestowed
upon the wild products her rarest
and richest tintings and pencilibgs.
Some had gorgeous bouquets of but
tercups, the green stalks and foliage
bedecked with richest golden flowers.
Others had Johnny-Jump-Ups in great
rrofusion, their velvety, purple and
blue bright in the evening sun, and
others still were satisfied with tn.
white and red striped Spring Beau
ties; many had gathered the pale
blue Quaker Ladies, pale pink ADe-

SHAWKEY WRITES
ABOUT THE CLUBS
State Superintendent shawkey Urges
Boys in their
Work.

In letter written to the BOYS
agricultural clubs in the state of Wtst
Virginia, State Superintendent M. P.
Shawkey says:
1t is plasure and an honor to
have the privilege Of giving you
few words Of greeting and encourage
ment.
l have since learned tna. If far
mer desires fruit trees of q certain
shape, and fruit OF high quality and
large quantity, his surest way to
secure these is through a young or.
chard rather than by pruning and
grating the old orchard that had
poor start and poor training. I am
equally convinced that the shortest
cut and surest method Of making
prosperous, happy farmers in West
Virginia is found in tie proper train
ing Of our farm boys and I consider
the club work very important phase
of that training. 1t pleases me to
note that the substantial wark has
passed the fad stage, and is now upon
a substantial basis. In a true sense
the leaders in this movement may be
considered educators and statesmen
We need a lot of All men in this
state-men with trained hands and
heads, courageous kind hearts, and
health to back up good work; and
we are expecting large crop Of sucn
men from the club boys of the state.
In your difficulties / sympathize
with you; in your many joys, re-
joice you; in your work, IS heartily
join you, for II was once a barefoot
boy" on the old farm.
