Sophomore Glass Notes
AS a project in English the
Sopomore Glass has organized
a club. The purpose of this
club is to promote good speech,
give practice in parliamentary
procedure, and to develop all
phases of English. Meetings
are held every three weeks.
For the benefit Of making the
club a social as well as an edu-
cational activity, programs are
given by various members of
the class.
Thanksgiving week a pros
gram was given by selected
group. The program consisted
of poems, readings, and two
plays emphasizing the national
holiday. On Friday, Dec.18, u
similar program will be carried
out by members of the class.

On Tuesday evening, Nov. "a.
the faculty entertained the Jul
nior and Senior Glasses at a.
Thanksgiving Party, the eve
ming being greatly enjoyed by
all. The first part of the eve
ming was spent in the school
auditorium, which was decorat-
ed in true Thanksgiving style
with corn and pumpkins. After
the teachers and pupils were
divided into six groups, a track
meet, consisting of many UNI
usual and clever events, was
staged.
When the track meet was
over, the entire group adjourn
ed to the cafeteria where de-
lightful refreshments were
served and the presentation Of
a plaque was made to the team
winning the most points I'M
the meet.
Assembly
Every two weeks we have ass
sembly meeting. Everyone
then has a chance to discuss
problems he cannot solve. The
assembly meeting gives the
student opportunity to make
new friends in the school, and
to come in closer contact with
the faculty in social and school
work.
These meetings are of value
to the pupils. 1t gives them a
chance for all-round Develop
ment not provided in regular
classroom work. Training in
citizenship is provided by de-
mands for leadership and re-
sponsibility. The power to ex-
press ones self before a group,
together with poise and self
confidence, are gained through
participating in programs.
Intelligent public opinion is
developed.
The general atmosphere about
the school is improved. School
spirit and the morale of the
school is raised when everyone
is doing something for his
school. The preparation of
programs brings pupils and
teachers together in such a
way that a feeling of coopera-
ton and helpfulness exists be-
tween them. Interest in assem-
bly, programs reduces disci4
plinary problems.
The community interest i'm
the school is increased. BY
means of assembly programs
the school is brought into
closer relationship with the
community, as the parents will
visit the school when their
children are participating in
assembly programs. Also visits
OF local speakers to the school
help to bring closer together
the school and community.

Review OF Our Fall Athletic
Season
Our last season was a joyful
and yet a sad one. 1t was joy
full because our soccer team
did much better than usual, as
they, won third place. This sea-
son was also sad one, because
our girls were beaten. This
meant that they had not a hope
of winning the county cham
pionship. After some consid-
Grafton we felt that three years
was long enough for our team
to have this honor.

games and scores:

Farm Selling Agency
To Market Poultry

A central sales office to handle
poultry, turkeys and poultry products
has been established with headquarters
at Durham and with R. w. Galphin,
formerly county agent of Pamlico
County, as manager.
"For the past four years the 40
small farm exchanges of North Car
DINA have handled some two million
pounds of poultry and the growth Of
interest in poultry forming has shown
the need for some efficient central
selling agency" says c. W. Tilson,
manager of the Durham Mutual Ex-
change and president of the newly
organized North Carolina Producers
Mutual Exchange.
"In some instances the small ex-
changes have grouped together to sell
the poultry products of their members
but as to the work has grown, a strong
central agency has seemed necessary.
Mr.. Galphin organized one of the
first mutual exchanges in this State
in 1925 and his had a part in forming
others. He is known as an authority
on this kind of cooperative effort

One Farm Product
Has No Surplus

There is no surplus of farm work
stock and the scarcity of mules and
horses will increase as the main breed
ing centers continue to use tractors
for power.
"One important live-at-home policy
being overlooked in North Carolina
is the production of a farm supply of
mules and horses" says David S.
Weaver, agricultural engineer at State
College. Horses and mules suitable
for farm power are dying off from
old age more rapidly than they are
being produced. In the western states,
which formerly produced a large part
of the horse and mule supply, farmers
have gone into tractor farming. This
has resulted in a displacement Of
breeding. mares. No other section
seems to be interested in producing
the animals Of the size the Southern
farmer needs and it looks as if he will
have to get into this work for his
own protection"

Restrict Turkey Range
And Feed For Market

Since most of the turkeys grown
in North Carolina are produced under
free range conditions, this range must
be restricted as it becomes time to
furnish birds for the holiday trade.
1.-THE very fact hat most of our
turkeys are grown under free range
conditions makes it unwise to conhne
them in small pens when fattening
for holiday trade" says c. F. Parish,
extension poultry specialist at State
College. However, the range should
be restricted. Unlimited range is harm
full because the excessive exercise pre-
vent the birds from putting on flesh.
To confne the birds in small pens or
coops will cause them to become
nervou and lose weight. 1t is best to
simply restrice the range and to feed
a fattening ration"
The best fattening ration for these
birds is a mixture of corn and wheat,
equal parts by weight, suggests Mr..
Parrish. The grower should feed this
mixture both night and morning
giving as much as the birds will clean
up. AS the fattening period progresses:
increase the amount of corn and de-
crease the mount of wheat until the
last few days before the birds are sold,

SINCE ANDY JACKSON."
During a recent trip to Omaha,
the Oklahoma executive, to show
that he wears his u years lightly,
stood on his head for a full minute
before Governor and Mrs. Charles
W. Bryan.
Governor Murray has not an
nounced a platform built from his
views on national issues, but he
does have a receipt for answering
prohibition QUESTIONS. Interviewed on
the issue, he said:
ooh, I've heard a lot of nuts talk
about prohibition. A fellow asked
me time if we had prohibition
in Oklahoma. / told him sure we
did. He asked me if we liked it and
I told him sure we did. He asked
me if prohibition was. enforced down
there. My answer was, of course,
not. But you know that fellow just
wanted an argument, and | didn't
give it to him."
Oklahoma's colorful Governor has
definite views on Wall Street, which
h. claims is debating every loan made
in the country.
"I'm for a return of constitutional
government whereby a farmer can
go to his local bank, pledge his crop
and borrow Is per cent of its value
SO that he may harvest and markc,
it," Governor Murray says. I'm fol-
making the banks lend to manufac-
turers and producers so that bushes.

tiplied and our lives are enriched with
its application. Education has advanc-
ed, the health of our people has in
creased. We have dwelt in peace with
all men. The measure of passing ad-
versity which has come upon us should
deepen the spiritual life Of the people:
quicken their sympathies and spirit Of
sacrifice for others, and strengthen
their courage.
MANY of our neighbors are in neee
from causes beyond their control ane
