The above photo shows one of the
SO Chukar cartridges which were re-
leased in the Game Reserve north of
Hinckley early last Thursday morn
ing by the Department of Game &
Fish in the presence of several sports
men from this county. The bird is
held by VIM. H. Barnick, secretary
of the Sandstone Rod & Gun club.
The birds were about half grown
and they are claimed to be fast on
the wing with a very good meat
quality. Provisions were made to
feed the birds from time to time
until they get accustomed to local
conditions. The release was made at
2 o'clock in the morning in the
presence of Game Wardens Charles
Beckman, Sheridan Greig and AL
bert Schutt; Godfrey Olson, Mr.. Bar
nick, Vernon Colby, H. T.. Kroning,
H. D. Stokes, c. o. Hedlund and E. F.
Nielsen of the Sandstone Rod & Gun
club; v. E. Shafer and Albert Belling
of the Finlayson Izaak Walton League.
Efforts Bear Fruit.
The members of the Finlayson
Izaak Walton League chapter have
endeavored during the past several
years to get the State Conservation
Department to do something toward
restoration of the Ruffed grouse or
else introduce a bird in this section
which would replace the Chinese
pheasant. The release of the Chukar
partridge has partially justified these
efforts.
The Chukar is about the same size
as Pine county's native partridge,
but has a red beak, red legs, a white
throat with black markings, with a
general gray coloring. The young
are full grown at three months after
Matching and are known to be natural
''budders" and to thrive in tempera-
lures from $50 degrees to real sub
zero weather. The birds are seldom
flushed without the use of a dog.
Herman c. Wenzel, commissioner
of conservation, in letter to the
Finlayson League, stated that it was
through the efforts of that chapter
that the Chukar partridge was re-
leased in Pine county and that the
members of the chapter deserve much
credit for the part they have played
in trying to restore partridge hunting
in the county.

Raleigh, May 26.-An increase of
over $8,OOO,000 was made by the North
Carolina Furniture Industry in 1885,
over the year 1888, according to Unit
ed States Bureau of the Census fig
ures. Released by the North Carolina
Department of Conservation and De-
velopment, the census of manufac-
lures report shows that in 1888, the
value of furniture, store, and office
equipment made in this State amount
ed to $685. 900, while the 1885 pro-
duction was 3d., 1885
North Carolina was one of the pio-
neer states in the South in the manu-
facture of furniture. Today, produc-
ton in this State nearly doubles that
of any other southern state and ranks
fourth in total production in the ma
ton.
The first machine-made furniture
in North Carolina was produced be-
tween 1880 and 1890. Previous to this
time, there were several small plants
located in all sections of the State,
turning out handmade chairs, tables,
etc. One of the most famous of these
early establishments was the Murry-
Town Chair Makers in the vicinity of
Zebulon. Hand fashioned splint-bot-
tom chair making began in this sec
ton about the year, 1850.
With enormous wood resources
close at hand, the development of ma
chine-made furniture was especially
rapid in North Carolina, From 1914
to 1919, the furniture industry expert
enced it's most rapid development, in
creasing its output from slightly over
nine million to more than twenty-nine
million dollars. In recent years, this
state had lead in the production of
wooden bedroom and dining room fur
niture.
Until early in 1920, North Carolina
made furniture was sold principally
On markets in New York, Chicago,
and Grand Rapids, Michigan. How
ever, in 1920, manufacturers in the
city of High Point took the lead and
established a market for furniture
there In a ten-story structure, built
at a cost of over a million dollars,
semi-annual furniture shows are held
IN January and July. These shows are
attended by retailers from all over the
country.

One of the most hopeful signs for
the future is evidence in Washington
| today is a tremendous interest in nc
tivities, government and private, that
| are designed to reach the youth OF
our country. Perhaps never before has
, there been such an intensive effort
to formulate wholesome programs foy
reaching our citizens of tomorrow
And no Federal expenditures are pro-
ducing finer results.
AS this weekly article is being writ
ten, there is gathered IN Washington
some ten thousand boys and girls
, from twenty states and the National
Capital. They represent a voluntary
organization of youngsters, Ibanded
to gether with the very fine purpose
of protecting the life and limb OF their
schoolmates. 1 am happy that Mort I
Carolina is well represented in this
demonstration ~heie and it is most re
freshing to see the shining faces of
these happy boys and girls as they
go about the National Capital, receiv-
ing the inspiration offered by our
great institutions.
Next month will see thirty thous-
ard Boy Scouts gathered here for 4
national iumhorec A tented city is
being built along the banks of the
Potomac and with many nations of
the world engaged in diplomatic ir-
trigues that may loose the goods Of
war; it is inspiring to see the peace
time cantonnlent' being built for the
Boy Scouts. It is a challenge to our
national leaders to maintain peace on
the American continent.
Another indication of the organiza-
ton for youth is the preparation for
continuing the activities of the Civil
ian Conservation Corps. 1t is now evil
dent that the Congress will provide
the necessary funds for maintaining
IT least for the present, the work Of
the CCC camps. Certainly if our ma
ton can afford to maintain military
camps in time of war, we can afford
to maintain camps in time of peace,
where young men, unable to find en-
ployment on farm or in factory, can
live in the outdoors, maintain their
health, and receive training and dis
cipline so necessary to our youth.
All these things indicate that we
need not fear for tomorrow. Our
younger generation is being well train
ed in the responsibilities of citizen
ship. Our youngsters are getting a
deeper insight into the fundamental
purposes of government. They have a
fine respect for the roots of our ma
tional institutions And we can rest
assured that despite many uncertain
ties existing today e are preparing
to leave our affairs of the future in
capable hands.
Another favorable indication is the
fact that our great educators, in our
Henderson daily dispatch. (Henderson, N.C.) 1914-1995, 1937-05-26

colleges, our universities and our high
schools are more and more turning to-
ward putting education on practical
basis. In other words, training stu
dents for the practical art of earning
livelihood. More and more there IS
growing belief that our young men
and women must be trained for the
field in which they are to engage Ii
a man is to be a mechanic, there is
little need for him studying things
that will have no practical appllca-
ton in this field! To put it another
way, vocational education is gaining
ground and no better evidence of this
is found than the large Federal grants
to aid our educational institutions IN
giving vocational kraining in agri-
culture and industry.
The opportunity today for our boys
and girls to receive an education is
greater than ever before. The young
man or woman who has selected his
or her goal in life and is deslrous OF
training for the hard road that leads
to that goal, will find resources avail
able to give him help. Even the Fed
eral Government is today giving much
aid.
AS another school year comes to a
close, l know of no finer subject to
mention than that regarding which [
have written, with the hope that it
will leave word of encouragement
with our citizens of tomorrow, on the
farm, and in the smaller communities
to which America must look for lead
ership in the days to come.

w. O. w. WON PRAISE HERE

Hendersonville will be delighted to en-
tertain all conventions that can be induced
to meet here, if the personnel measures up
to the standard established by the Wood
men of the World.
This city has never in its history enter
tanned large body of men which made
more favorable impression on the commun-
ity than the Woodmen. They are evidently
first class citizens in their home communl-
ties and they measured up to that designa-
tion and reputation during their stay in
Hendersonville.
They were quiet, we'll behaved, intelli-
gent, substantial Carolinians. They were
here to attend to the business of their or
der and they attended to it with efficiency
and dispatch. At the same time they evi-
denced splendid quality of friendship
and fellowship among themselves and in
their contacts with our people.
It is certain that this convention AFFORD
ed Hendersonville better knowledge and
understanding of the w. o. w. than it has
heretofore possessed, and won friends Il
