heart lies and it's with the better ba-
bies at the fair this fall. Besides
building them new quarters for their
annual Better Babies contest, theyl
are offering ten dollars in gold to
the baby showing the greatest i'm
provement since last year. This de
dsion of the faif: AUTHORITIES
changes the entrance requirements
of the Better Babies contest some
what, as only babies under thirty
six months have previously been ad-
mitted. Children under fortyteight
months are now eligible as the priza
is offered to all that were enrolled
last Year. The ''kiddy" who can
show and prove it by his scores that
he is the best improved better baby
gets the prize.
The list Of babies enrolling for the
contest is every day growing. En-
quiries reach the office of the Sec
retary, Miss Mae Reynolds of thS

SEND THE ROBESONIAN TO
YOUR SOLDIER BOY

Let The Ropesonian follow your
boy as he leaves home for training
camp and later for the front. There
is nothing you could send him that
would be appreciated SO much. Don't
try to send him the paper after you
have read it. He will not get it reg
ularly that way, and the cost of send
ing it is almost as much that way
as the cost of subscribing for him.
Let it be mailed to him regularly
from this office. He will get it reg
ularly that way, and it will be like
a letter from home to him. In no
other way can he keep up with home
news. IT any one who reads this
knows of a man called into service
whose parents Or other near rela.
tives are not able to send the paper,
ne will be doing good deed by sub
scribing for that person. And if any
parents or wife of a man who has
been called into service are not able
to send the paper if they will advise
The Robsonian to that effect it may
be that arrangements may be made
to send soldiers who have gone from
such homes The Robesonian. A Lum-
berton man has started a movement
for that purpose. There is nothing
that could give man away from
home In the service of his country
so much pleasure ard real satisfac-
ton as being able to read the news
from home IN The Robesonian.

Robson is Expected to Figure in The
Corn Show at Wilmington

Robson is Expected to Figure in the
Corn Show at Wilmington
Lumberton Cor. Wilmington Star by
Samuel T. Meares.
Robeson's tremendous yield of ag-
ricultural products is sufficient proof
that it has many farmers, yes, hun
dreds Of farmers, who do not have
to attend corn shows or. agricultural
fairs to see the perfect yield, the
full measure OF the largest stalk,
for upon the soil of their own prem
ises and under the directions of their
skill and Judgment, these specimens
of intensive farming are common
place achievements.
But these successful farmers real
ize the broadness Of the agricultur
al industry and the advantage of
exchanging views, the inspiration,
the pleasure of seeing the good from
their neighbor's fields the duty to
the boys to make the farm an at
traction and for all these virtues,
great interest has already been man
ifested in the Wilmington corn show,
which Of course is not simply a
corn show as the name might i'm
ply, but an agricultural show in
which prizes are offered for super
ior exhibits Of all products Of the
farm, range and poultry yard, and
not a few exhibits in these things
will be seen from the state Of Rob-
eson, which of course will mean that
this old county Of the Lumber river
will come away with more than a
few first prizes and Robson will be
we'll represented in the thousands
who will visit this the greatest of
Wilmington's corn shows. J
On every hand is seen the inter-
est Maj. Joseph w. Little and his
coworkers have created and an ap-
probation is evident of the realiza-
tlon Wilmington has that it is build
ing for itself when it. seeks to pro-
mote the agricultural and stock rails
ing industry Of the adjacent terri
tory. Interest in the event is not
confined to one Or two sections of
the county, but from the Maxton
Section, the St. Paul section, the
Rowland, Fairmont and Barnesville
section, is there growing evidence
that the big event at Wilmington
November the 9Th to 9th, will fine
many Robson people in attendance
and many exhibits from the count,
there.
While Major Little and the sever
al committee chairmen are doing al
they can to get the prize lists ant
other information about the big shov
! to every nook and corner of the tel
| counties embraced, they will cheer
fully furnish any information to an,
who will write.
