attended by around 200 repre-
sentative citizens of Ashe coun-
ty. Ed M. Anderson acted as
POSTMASTER and introduced the
guests. Harry Caldwell, State
Grange Master was present at
this time and spoke briefly.
Mr.. Caldwell pointed out that
the farmers had not been getting
their share of the national in
come and that many farm prob
lens are to be solved through
working, studying and planning
together.
In referring to July Fourth he
said that too many Americans
had been thinking too much
about the blessings of democracy
and too little of responsibilities
and that conditions were such
that one must think seriously
about such matters.
The luncheon which was spon-
sored by the women of the
Grange carried out the patriotic
motif as did the attractive table
decorations.
Hon. Ira T. Johnston presided
during the afternoon program
and introduced the various honor
guests who sat on the speakers
platform. Those included repre-
sentatives of the various civic or
CARNATIONS, county officials, edu-
Gators and others interested in
the welfare and betterment of the
county as whole.
Prior to Mr.. Morrison's address
Wade E. Eller, principal Of the
Riverview high school extended
a welcome and stated the dual
purpose Of the celebration, in the
interest of the school and to OBJ
serve the nations birthday. The
speakers platform and the en-
tire building was decorated in pa
triotic colors. Levern Johnson
was the Grange chairman of the
celebration.
