 Searcy, which seems about the hardest contender in the district, was comeback again this time, and so far has won two first cups and maybe more, before it is over. Not one time during the four years has she failed to carry one, two or three of the cov- eted trophies home. So far the judges have decided in favor of two of her contestants, and both boys, who were deserving of first honors-- Wayne Caldwell, first in violin and Edward Brundidge first in declama- tion. "A chip off the old block" was what the friends and admirers of Mir. Brundidge had to say at the conclu- sion of the little mans Reclamation, "America's Future At Stake" ~.
 Freeman Try, Newport's represent ative, came second, and was a close second too. His comrades gave him . rousing reception, preceding and fol- lowing his address, Pictures of War;" He was favorite and his classmates were proud of him.
 Thelma McCarroll, Walnut Ridges representative in violin was fine, re- ceiving second place. 4saa8
 McCrory, which is another close runner in the annual contest, won first in piano, with Miss Esther Ar nof first and Eleanor Sink, of New port, second. Newport was also proud of her voice contestant, Miss Clyde Wood, who has wonderfully good voice. In the piano contest Miss Ruby Hawthorne was considered very fine and brilliant young pianist.
 Many of the rural schools of the county participated in the contest in compositions on Liberty Bonds.
 Mrs. c. H. Brough, state chair man of the Women's Liberty Loan Campaign, through Mrs. c. C. Henry, county chairman of the Liberty Loan campaign, requested that all the schools of the county participate in the contest carried on in the schools throughout the state from April 1st to the 18th. g8ss
 The work was divided into three divisions as follows: grades to inclusive, first division; grades 6 te 8 inclusive, second division; and the High school grades constituting the third division.
 In the. first division, Miss Irene May Pharriss was awarded first place. In the Second division, Misi Anna Willis Reid was awarded first place. There was no essay submitted from the High schools.
 The judges were composed o' Mrs. c. H. Banks, Messrs. II. l. Thomas and A. J. Garner. The sub iect matter throughout the entire list of contestants were exception ally good, which indicated the pur pose of the Liberty Loan was defin itely understood throughout thu county. F
 Owing to heavy rains having plac ed the fair grounds in bad condition the annual track meet was called of for this year.
