(From Tuesdays Daily Herald

(From Tuesdays Daily Herald.)
At the union services held at the
Bigbyville Methodist church on Sun
day night announcement of the con-
soldation of the schools of McCains
and Bigbyville was made a real, old
fashioned reunion of the people of
that section took place. All of the
five pastors OF that section of the
county were present at the services
and it proved to be one of the best
ever held
This consolidation, announced in
The Herald Saturday, is the consuma
ton of the hopes and aspirations of
many years. 1t is an objective to
which County Superintendent Graham
and the county board of education
have been working for many years
Effort after effort TO bring the peo-
pie together had failed, but they did
not despair and the meeting held Fri
day on the highway and near the
scene of the new building was one of
the most momentous ever held in that
section.
In making the announcement of the
result of this conference the preacher
said that ordinarily he was opposed to
highway marriages, but that the we'd
ding of the BigbyVille and McCains
communities with James Harris as
the officiating minister was one of
which he could most heartily approve.
Already the funds are being sub
scribed for the $4,000 that must be
raised to make available the county's
appropriation of $4,000. The funds
are being promptly subscribed and
without reference to the community
in which the subscriber lives All for
mer lines that divided the MEGA rs
and Bigbyvile sections have been OBJ
liberated and it is believed that with
in a few days all of the necessary ar
rangements to insure the bond issue
viii! have been completed. The citi.
zens of both communities are loud in
their praises of. Messrs. Harris, Farris,
Weatherford and Fly, who brought an
end to the unfortunate controversy.
Already plans are being made for
great corn0 stone laying when work
on the b0iding begins.

Shipments of lambs from Maury

It is not expected that many will 20
forward until next month. Tie bulk
Of the crop will go out in June, the
first Of that month being the fayorite
time
While tbs crop is not large the quail
ity of the lambs in the county is tn
usually good and the weights are go
ing to be splendid this year. There
was probably less mortality among
the lambs of the county the past WIN
ter than there has been in many years.
For that reason the proportion OF
lambs to sheep is exceptionally heavy.
The unusually open weather of the
winter has made an exceptionally fine
growth of all winter pasture crops and
the lambs are exceedingly fat. The
weights now will probably ayerag
up To what they would ordinarily he
IN May. There are plenty Of lambs in
the county that are ready for market,

COMMUNITY FAIRS SUFFER
Woman Agent Needed to Assist in Sc

tFrom Tuesdays Daily Herald.)
Although the failure of the coun-
ty court to appropriate funds for a
home demonstration agent yesterday.
was severe blow to the agricultural
program of the county, the several
communities will continue with plans
TO hold fairs this fall, relying upon the
patriotic woman Of the several com
munities to assist.
The communities which have plan
ned to hold fairs this fall lad been
counting on the demonstration agent
TO assist in the preparation OF exhib-
its for fall, especially would the assist,
ance OF the woman agent been valua.
BILE in the selection of exhibits in can
ned fruits, needle work, etc, but with
the service denied them, the commu-
mites have determined to make the
best of it, and the women of every
community will ask to assist in max
ing the community fairs to be held
this fall, a success
From present indications more fairs
will be held over the county this fall
than ever before. Word has come
that Enterprise is planning a display
bigger and better than ever before.
Hampshire and lsom are also at, work,
Santa Fee is working with ore idea
toward a community fair, and Culleo-

communities will probably get in the

After these community fairs have
1een held the best exhibits from ev-
cry community will be brought to Co
lumbia, when the county "Agricultu-
raj Day" will be held, bringing hun
dreds of people to the city from every
section of the county.
Through the county council of agri-
culture, Maury county will put up a
great fight for deserved recognition
at the Tennessee State Fair at Nash
vile this fall also, and with each com
munity at work there sens to lie little
doubt that the Maury county exhibit
this fall will be bigger and better than
