CONY HIGH NOTES
.COny Debaters
Hold Interesting
Match on Tuesday

The program of the Cony High
Debating Society at its annual meet
ing which was held Tuesday evening
at the high school building included
debate between two-man teams
on the question, Resolved. that
Cony High School should adopt a
two session school day"
The affirmative on this question
was upheld by Charles and Atwood
Nelson. while the negative was ia
ken by Ernest Church and Evelyn
Hurd.
The argument of the affirmative
was to the effect that the scholars
study more through the two session
plan, that their study is under the
supervision of the teachers and when
they leave school at night they
leave their books and have the eve
nings for recreation. They also
quoted several school officials in this
city as being in favor Of this plan.
The argument of the negative was
that Cony high school with the one
session plan is making fine record
and is surprising schools in which
| the two session plan is used. Es-
pecially because of the crowded
condition of the school. they MAIN
| tanned, it is desirable that the stu
dents should not be kept in the
school any longer than necessary.
The judges of this debate were
Rev. II. II. Brown, George Film
wood and Mrs. I. e. Peters. They
congratulated the debatcrs upon the
splendid contest which they had con-
Quoted and awarded the decision to
the affirmative.
A large number of the members
of the debating soCitey were pres
ent at this meeting and several new
members were admitted during the
course of the evening.

Varieties of Pecans and Apples for
Alabama Conditions
A reader, Dadeville, Ala,
writes: I am thinking of setting
out a few pecan and some fall
apple trees. I would like to
know which are the best varie-
ties, and where they can be OBJ
tanned, and what they will cost.
The best varieties of pecans to
plant for general cultivation in the
northern part of your state will
probably be the Stuart, Rome, Mon
ey-Maker Schley, Curtis and
Frotscher. In the middle section,
practically all of the varieties men
toned above will also give very good
results. In the southern part, you
will probably find the Stuart. Cur
tbs, Bradley, President, Pabst, ALLEY
and Success the most desirable va
rieties to set out.
The varieties of apples best adapt
err to the mountainous section of
your state are the Ben Davis, Early
Harvest, Kinnard, Shockley, Terry,
Winesap, Yates and Yellow Trans
parent. For the middle section. the
Yellow Transparent, Horse, Yates,
Terry, Winesap and Ben Davis are
recommended. The only varieties
that are likely to prove satisfactory
for cultivation in southern Alaba-
ma are those recommended for cult
walton in the middle section of the
state. Commercial apple growing in
southern Alabama would not prove
profitable. according to our judg-
ment. We would advise you to Sc
lect only a few standard varieties,
depending on the nature and charac-
ter of the ground you wish to utilize
for orchard purposes. Lowlands are
to be avoided as most fruit and nut
trees prefer Well-drained area of
soil. High elevations with apples
are to be preferred because of the
better air drainage which is pro-
vided for this class of fruit and
which is essential to prevent the
destruction of the crop, through the
occurrence of late frosts. The vari-
cites mentioned can be secured from
standard nurseries. [ would pur-
chase these trees with a guarantee
and subject to examination by your
state entomologist. The price varies,
of course, according to seasonal de-
mands. Among the largest and most
reliable nurseries are the Fruitland
nurseries, Augusta, Ga; Smith
Brothers, Concord, Ca. and the Ash
ford Park nurseries, Atlanta, Ga.

STORIES
Peter Sees a Race for Life

Peter Sees Race for Life
Danger which is not suspected
Gives greater fright than when ex-
pected. Peter Rabbit.
When Peter Rabbit left Old Jed
Thumper, the big gray Rabbit, in
his bramble-tangle in far corner
of the Old Pasture he didn't hurry.
He hoped away slowly. AS he hop
ped along he kept watch behind him.
He saw Old Jed Thumper poke his
head out of that bramble- tangle
and look after him. Peter chuckled
down inside. He'll come" said
Peter to himself. Hell come. He's
thinking of that cabbage and those
carrots and apples. He can't think
of those things and stay up here in
the Old Pasture. He simply can't
do it. His stomach won't let him."
Peter began to run fast so as to
get out of sight of Old Jed Thum'
per. Then he sat down behind a
bush and watched his back trail. He
didn't have to watch long. In fact,
it was only a moment or two before
he saw Old Jed Thumper coming
and Old Jed Thumper was begin
ming to hurry. There was an anX-
ious look in his eyes. Inside Peter
chuckled again. Then he stopped
chuck1ing. He had noticed that
though Old Jed Thumper was trying
to hurry, he wasn't moving very
fast, and Peter understood why. He
understood that that big, gray Rab-
bit was weak from lack of food.
Feter started on again, but he
went slowly. He didn't look back.
He suspected that Old Jed Thumper
didn't want him to know that he
| was being followed. So he hoped
along through the Old Pasture as
| if he had nothing in particular on his
! mind.
Now in the Old Pasture there is
quite a broad stretch in which there
are no bramble-tangles. There are
| plenty of bushes and young trees,
but no brambles. Old cow paths
wind in and out among these bushes
and trees. It was along one of these
paths that Peter hoped. He was
almost through that broad stretch
and very near to a bramble-tangle
on the lower side when he heard
some distance behind him the thump
of a Rabbits feet on the hard crust.
1t was danger signal. Peter didn't

per was making for that bramb]e-
tangle where Peter was, for it was
the nearest place Of safety. But he
couldn't run straight there. Reddy
could run faster than he could, so
there was nothing for Old. Jed
Thumper to do but to dodge. And
how he did dodge!
But lodging this way and that
way around the bushes took
strength, and Old Jed Thumper was
weak from lack of food. Two or
chree times Reddy missed him as he
lodged. Would he be able to reach
that bramble-tangle in time? Would
he? Peter forgot how he had once
hated Old Jed Thumper. He forgot
how Old Jed Thumper had always
tried to drive him out of the o. !
Pasture. He could th;"'; Of moth

Reddy could run faster than he
could. so there was nothing for
Old Jed Thumper to do but
dodge

even stop to look back. He did just
what a wise Rabbit should do at
such a time; he bounded for that
bramble-tangle as fast as his legs
could take him. The instant he was
safely in among those brambles he
sat up to look back. What he saw
made him hold his breath.
Dodging this way and that around
the bushes was a big, gray Rabbit.
1t was Old Jed Thumper. Of course
Peter knew that it was he who had

hind him was Reddy Fox. 1t was
clear to Peter that Reddy must have
been coming down through the Old
Pasture behind Old Jed ThumDor
and surprised him. Old Jed Thum-
