Club NOTES

If anyone has got the notion tha'
club work. is a dreary grind of drudg-
erv he will soon make another guess
after looking over the Club Song Book
and outline of games, supplied by the
State Club Leader. The first of these
is literally packed and jammed full
of jolly songs and Club yells. The
second contains five pages of sugges.
tions for pageants and parades, floats
and games, contests and dcmonstra
tions. Just to read these over makes
your blood flow faster. To put them
into action will bring you up on your
tip-toes. Owing to the lack of funds,
the supply is limited, but there are
at least enough to supply every club
with a copy.

she had found so disarming and so
reassuring when first she had seen
it. 1t brought with it a poignant
stab of memory, and the color

sharply-"why are you here"
She spoke without lowering her
voice, and saw q faint shadow Of
apprehension cross his eyes as he
glanced behind him at the door.
Somehow it served to give her
back measure of her composure.
Turning she crossed slowly to the
hearth The electric bell was
within reach of her hand, and
again the flicker of apprehension
showed in Carson's eyes as they
rested upon It. But he spoke rather
softly, quite without furry or
haste.

to her question, "in the hope of

and came across to her. One hand
was thrust idly into his pocket, in

light shone upon his clean cut

boyishly curly. Lee rested her

abruptly away. Her heart was

THREE BIG CAMPS
BOYS AND GIRLS

Three camps for farm boys and girls
who are doing club work are to be
held in Tennessee this year, accord

leader.
The first camp will be held at the

for Middle Tennessee boys and girls,

is the purpose of these camps TO
provide instructions and practical
demonstrations in club work, to en-
able boys and girls to know more
about the experiment stations and

week of fine sport and recreation. All
club members doing creditable work,

Christ was not a weakling. He had
strength and courage to stand before
all men and call them hypocrites
sinners, etc. A weakling can't do
that. Prof. Dishman said there were
people who did not believe in Christ.
yet they consider him the greatest
of teachers, that his method of
teaching was perfect. He also stated
that the masses of common people
gladly accepted Christ but The edu-
catedNand intellectualS crucified him.
Men have searched the character of
Jesus with microscope and have
yet to find flaw therein.
1t was a great subject and well
covered, and very attentive aud
fence enjoyed every word of the lec-
ture. The w. D. w. Glass received
much thanks for dividing their treat
with the other classes. Another Wis
iting speaker is scheduled to speak
before that class next Sunday. The
person has not yet been announced.
A large class of boys were present
and bunch of ball players. The

continually doing things different,
stepped outside of the city limits to
bring before their members a speak

young peoples speakers, Prof. ]. w.

zie. Prof. Dishman delivered his
splendid lecture "ChriSt the Manly
Man." A great class composed of
the adult mems class, the w. d. w.
Class of young men and two adult
ladies' classes.
Prof. DiShman reviewed the life
of Christ from the birth to the tomb,
then to his leaving the earth. He
spoke of the outstanding features in
the life of Christ which characteriz-
ed him as a Man and Manly Man.
He had courage, strength, power,
love and those other features that
make up a real manly man. Most
people think of a Christian man as a
sort of weakling because his mind
has been led to believe that to be a
man one must be able to do the
worldly things and get by, but

HOGS NEED SPECIAL
CARE IN HOT WEATHER

Special care should be taken in
loading hogs in hot weather and
where possible, the shipper or an at
tendant, should accompany the ship
ment to market, and from time to
time look at the cars in his charge
to see that the animals are in good
condition, say marketing experts of
the State College of Agriculture.
Live stock that is to be moved some
distance to the shipping point should
be moved slowly and carefully and
in the cool part of the day if posi-
BILE. 1t is considered a good plan to
haul hogs and sheep to the shipping
point if practicable to do so. When
driving or loading care should be
taken not to strike or beat the ami
mails, as this will cause bruise. An
imals that become bruised or injured
in loading and shipping produce an
unattractive and wasty carcass, thus
causing losses.
Animals should be delivered to the
shipping point in ample time to allow
them to rest before loading, and it
is sometimes good plan to water
before loading.
Cars should be thoroughly cleaned
and clean sand or straw put on the
floors. Live stock loaded in dirty
cars will become dirty and dirty live
stock is not. attractive to the buyer
on the market.
Loading-Do not load too heavy.
If the animals are crowded in the car
there is danger of some of the ami
mails becoming fast in the car and Il
in crowded condition the animals
that are down will smother to death;
also if the animals ares loaded too
heavy, there is more danger of ami
mails having their legs broken which
causes serious financial losses to the
shipper when the animals are sold.
