THREE PRIZE ESSAYS, ''WHY HANCOCK cOUN-
Iy SHOULD HAVE AN AGR|CU[T [TURAL SCHOOL y
The Three Essays Herewith Won the Prizes Offered tor oucf
Compostions at the the Recent Hancock County Far
LoGTowN-FIRsT PRIzI

This Is an era of progress, the
whole world seems to be IN an on
ward whlrl and great things are be-
ing accomplished.
Hancock County, to certain ex.
tent, has imbibed this spirit. VI
to the present time the lumber IN
dustrv has been our malnstay, but
as we gaze upon the depicted
forests. we realize that our boys and
girls will have to labor along other
lines. This will, of necessity lead
to the cultivation of the soil. Our
country is facing this problem, and,
for that reason has secured most
etticient County Farm and Home
Economic agents This, with a
view of creating a taste for farm
life and being of assistance tc
housewives in utilizing home grown
products.
To be successful in this work our
bows must have an Agricultural ed
ucatlon. There may be some who
will scott at the idea of actually
studying this subject but, they Will
be forced to admit that in all lines
of work it is the most efficient, VINO
meet with success. 1t is the skilled
workman who is in demand, not the
green hand" You may say our
forefathers were farmers and never
attended, nor even heard of an ag-
ricultural school. This is very true,
but. compare the actual returns
from an acre of ground cultivated
by a modern farmer with that OF a
so-caIled "old timer" and, in almost
every instance, you will find that tne
man who has devoted some STUDY TO
the subject reaps a far greater re-
ward for the same expenditure Oh
labor. time, and money.
Why should Hancock county have
an Agricultural School? .
1st. To put within easy reach Oh
the boys and girls of the county an
opportunity to secure not only a
good high school education when
will prepare them for college, but
also gives them a thorough training
for the practical studies of life on
the farm and in the home.
End. The law requires that this
school give instructions in both ag-
riSulture and home economies,
thereby making plain the fact that
it is designed to give training to tne
rural boys and girls and to improve
the farm life of the county.
3rd. 1t gives tuition to all pu-
pills in the county and board at ac-
tual cost.
4th. This school may receive
state aid each year in amount OF
from S1,500.00 to $2,5OO.O0, de-
pending upon the average number
of boarding pupils. :.
5th. This school may also quali-
for for receiving Federal aid each
year by teaching vocational agrl-
culture under the provisions OF the
Smith-Hughes act.
9Th. We pay state taxes, which
help to support agricultural hlgn ign
schools in other counties OF the
state, while the children in our own
county are failing to receive any
direct benefit from the money so
expended.
In conclusion, Pearl River county
has an Agricultural High School
why not Hancock? e

taken to Minneapolis this week to

win it be a good game? Bear in mind
that they beat Jefferson u to o. When
we licked them in the early part OF the
season they were just starting. The ad
dition of several new recruits to their
backfield and the time of preparation
promises another royal battle The game
will be played at three or three fifteen
O'Clock in order to allow the men coming
over on the MARY Jane to see at least a
good part of the game.
We had only three school days the past
week. The football team was given a
holiday Monday as a reward for having
triumphed over Jeffersons fast eleven,
and even though it rained all day it was
greatly appreciated and enjoyed by all.
We also celebrated the feast OF Saint
Stanislaus by the annual picnic held at
the College Stadium last Wednesday.
Many games and races of all kinds were
staged in the afternoon, while series or
games of socker football, between four
chosen teau.s, occupied the greater part
of the morning.
