CLUB EXHIBIT DAY

One of the best exhibits the county
has ever seen was held at the court
house October 3rd showing the work
of the Boys and Girls clubs and the
Community clubs of the county. AL
though the exhibit was not quite as
large as it has at times been, accord
ing to competent judges, the quality of
the products shown was considerably
above that of former exhibits.
There were thirteen pigs shown in
the contest for the prizes offered in
the pig club. Mr.. P. e. Spinks of the
State Department of Agriculture, and
Live Stock Agent for Boys Clubs, was
the Judge of the pigs and poultry, and
spoke very highly Of the judgment
shown by the boys in selecting good
types of pigs. The fine quality and
good number of exhibits of canned
products, cooking, sewing and poultry,
etc. reflected great credit on the capa-
BILE and enthusiastic leadership of the
County Economics Agent, Mrs. An
nette Tyndall.
The judges of the Girls and Wo-
mems Products were Mrs NJ. M
Brown, Mrs. ]. G. Chandler, and Miss
Margaret Joiner
The crowd attending the exhibit
was estimated variously at from three
to five hundred.
The money prizes were given by the
