Deer Season Opens Saturday.

Not in recent years has deer hunting
aroused more interest than at present,
due no doubt to lengthening the open sea-
son to one month and allowing two deer
to be killed by a hunter, The season
opens next Saturday, Nov. 10, and CON
tinues to Dec. Is inclusive, and rifles or
shotguns may be used. Hereabouts deer
have been on the increase during the past
few years, despite the warfare against
them, but under the new law their mum,
bers are sure to decrease to such an extent
as to threaten their extinction, which it
is understood is the object OF the new law
and the desire of the farmer representa-
tives who favored it at the meeting of the
legislature which met last January.

The Girls Club Work
In Dorchester County

During the County Fair this year
SO many people stopped at the Girls
Club Booth and asked about it, that
it seemed advisable for me to write
an explanation.
The Girls Club movement is a ma
tion-wide one, organized during the
war to help in food preservation and
Red Cross sewing. They were Orga-
nized and taught by the Home Dem
onstration Agents in counties where
they had no special Girls Club tea
chers.
The movement proved to be one Of
such wide influence and help not on
ly- to the country, but to the girls
themselves, that a permanent club
was formed, the purpose of which
was to train the heart, head, health
and hand to help in the home
hence the H Brand Club.
The motto was to make the best
better These clubs are in the form
of gardening, poultry raising, cam
ing, and sewing clubs, and provides
spending money for the girls.
In Dorchester county we have
seven thriving clubs, where the girls
make their uniforms to wear while
canning the products Of their gar
dens, and while working with their
poultry.
The club meetings are held in the
