Plant Petunias

Malta and McConnelsville may be-
come known as the cities of Petu
Mas, if the plans of the Community
Civic club are completely developed.
The choosing Of a city flower for the
twin cities is a part of the Better
Homes and Gardens beauty contest
that the club is entering. The COM
mittee in charge asked that vote of
the members of each civic, social
and fraternal organization be taken,
and their choice of a city flower be
given to the club. Several factors
were stressed, which should govern
the selection. The flower should be
hardy and easily cultivated and

COTTON DRIVE
IN LAST week
Workers Not Overenthusi-
astic and Are Behind
Schedule
The Timcs-Ncws Bureau
Sir Walter Hotel

RALEIGH, July Cotton re-
duction campaign workers will be-
gin their final weeks drive today
in the program to reduce North
Cardinals cotton production by
$4,000 acres.
The program in this state is
still in its infancy insofar as the
number Of farmers reporting and
the bulk of the campaign is con-
ccrned, and the mass of farmers
have yet to sign the bonus con-
tracts which were late in reaching
the 81 cotton-growing counties.
However, Dean |. o. Schaub OF
State College. director of the pro-
gram, reports enthusiastic recep-
ton in the "a counties reporting
during the week.
81 feel that l can safely say,
after weeks work on the sign
up program, that we can report
progress for this state and an OPP
timistic theme throughout North
Carolina. However, there is moth
ing TO be over enthusiastic about
and we must not permit ourselves
to be dcludcd by the zeal of the
spirit that is engendercd by this
campaign. Our battle is yet to be
won"
Reports over the past few days
show cotton farmers have agreed
! to reduce their acreage offered by
81 per cent--a reduction of s.
765 acres from 1900 acres IN
I cultivation. Realizing these fg-
urcs arc small in comparison with
the states reduction quota OF
$4,000 acres, Dean Schaub said
it would be an injustice to use
them as an Indication of the cam
paign's progress. The reduction
contracts were late in reaching
some of the counties, and several
did not receive them until last
Thursday morning.

CAMP
LIES VALUE
INESTINABLE
Activities At Mondamin
Typical In Benefits To
Nations Youth
b. ]. T. FAIN, JR.

Some idea Of the splendid work
being done throughout Western
North Carolina and in other sec
tions of the country in summer
camps for boys and girls may be
gained from the reading of litera-
ture on these camps, from the
observance of Improvement IN
those young people who attend
these camps, and from an ac-
quaintanceship with those people
who spend their time in this
work, but to really appreciate
Just what kind of instruction IS
carried on in these camps 4 per-
sonal visit is necessary.
Such a visit we made to Camp
MOndamin on Lake Summit one
evening recently, the occasion be
ing the opening night Of the 18th
session of this camp. This sum-
mer there are almost 100 boys
from all over the country in at
tendance, some of them old camp
ers, and a large attendance of
Youngsters who are attending
camp for the first time. The out
slider is struck immediately with
the spirit of cooperation and
friendship that develops among
these old and new boys, even on
their first day in camp.
Shortly after our arrival the
burle blew "soupie," which was
the signal for campers to place
their doutlc-edged appetlteS,

ings on child health, Rev. Henry
Johnson of Tarboro, Fritz Orr Of
Atlanta, known for his work
among boys and others. Mr.
Rorowsky sang and led singing.
A camper whose home is in St.
Louis rose to express the thought
of the day: zone thing well done
is worth 10 things half done" A
thought such as this is expressed
at each camp fire, alternately by
a camper and a councillor.
Then it was time for "taps"
and after the bugle played it Mr..
Rorowsky sang it over the lake
with all lights out and with abso-
Lutte stiffness prevailing.
Thousands Of boys and girls
are now attending such camps.
They arc learning from nature
things of usefulness for their
wears to come. In a selfish age
they are learning from nature to
be unsclfish, for nature is not
selfish; in an age requiring the
utmost of physical and mental
courage they arc fitting them
selves physically and mentally to
bear their share Of the burden;
and in an age when leaders strive
to make cooperation the watch
word they are learning to live
with their fellows in a spirit Of
helpfulncss. Materially su c h
camps are worth much to the
communities in which they are To-
Gated, but their value to the men
of tomorrow is inestimable in
dollars and cents.

to say, was never more thorough

stood up at table and imme-

admiration of his fellows with
several selections on an accord

campers with bottles each giving
a different note, played a selec-

welcomed new campers.
Then an adjournment was taken

of trees around a small pool with
