Compete for Prizes at Annual
Fair-Homc Economics Dis
play Feature

Close competition for prizes and
an excellent display OF agricultural
products, livestock and home eco
Monies articles contributed to the sue
cess of the annual high school agri-
cultural and home economies fair
held last Saturday under the aus
pieces of the Blue and Gray agricul-
tural club of the high school.
The agricultural exhibits, all
raised by boys of the high school,
were displayed in the Baker Motor
company building, while the home
economies EXHIBIT was held in the II.
L. rooms at the high school
A feature of the home economics
exhibit was a clever playlet, "The
High School Clothes Line" which
depicted good and bad forms of dress.
Many articles of wearing apparel and
canned goods prepared by the girls
themselves were on display
The agricultural and livestock ex-
hibits were in cargo of c. B. Wilson,
head of the agricultural department,
while Miss Cathryn Dryden of the
H. e. department had charge of the
home economies features of the fair.
An interesting feature of the fair
was vote taken on the desirability
of graded and ungraded potatoes a
! box OF good sized. carefully graded
Melted Gems was marked at 81 per
hundred, while a box of medium
sized and ungraded potatoes was
marked at rs cents per hundred
pounds. Visitors were asked to sig
Nifty which they would purchase for
family use at the prices quoted. Out
! of 81 participating, 24 stated that
they would purchase the graded po-
tatoes at 81 rather than the ungrad-
ed at rs cents.
Ellison E. Mundy, an agricultural
student at the State College, won
the weight guessing contest on a
mammoth squash. The weight of
the squash was 81 pounds, identical
with Mr.. Mundy's guess.
