A number of Representatives including
Mr.. w. B. Austin, made an effort to get the
state to take over all of the cost involved
in vocational agricultural instruction in
the high schools, but they were unable to
get this needed measure across. They did,
however, secure large increase in the
states appropriation for vocational in
struction and every high school district in
Ashe county can no doubt have an agri-
cultural department if sufficient funds to
match state and federal allotments are
raised. Here is challenge to the princi-
pals and to every one interested in educa-
ton and in the future progress of this
county.

revolutionary organization known
as Comitaji (rebe1s). The rebel
leader Hosea Pecanac was under
stood to have gone out to enlist
men for revolt; Yugoslavians ov-
erwhelmed the Greek and Bril-
fish legations in the capital of
Belgrade, all wanting to enlist
with the Allies.
War in the air and on the sea
continued, and was brought lit
tie closer to the U. S.
The Germans proclaimed Ice
land, which was occupied by the
British during the German invas-
ion of the Low Countries, to be
in their zone of war operations,
thus bringing them a little closer
to the United States. In current
operations they announced that
British battleship had been hit by
aerial bombs in the Mediterran-
can; that an outpost boat" was
destroyed and that two freighters
aggregating 10000 tons were da-
mayed.
The British reported that their
shipping losses for the second
successive week had shown a
sharp decline: 71,773 tons for the
week ended March 16 against 98,-
1872 tons for the previous week
and 141,314 for the week before.
Germans continued to hammer
at British cities and this week
practically ''coventrized' Ply

Austin To Speak
On Activities OF
Central Assembly

Representative w. B. Austin
will give summary of the acti-
vities of the last session of the
state legislature at the Rotary
club meeting here tonight.
Last Thursday night County
Agent c. J. Rich and w. D. Lee
soil conservationist, of State Col
lege, presented an interesting pro-
gram, consisting of an illustrated
talk on the value and need fol
soil conservation work.
''For generations we have beer
improperly using the land" Ro-
tartan Rich declared. "A million
and half acres of land in this
state have been abandoned as q
result Of this improper usage.
Food grown on land that is
undernourished will undernour-
ish both human beings and ami
mails who live off of it. We can't
maintain our bodies with poor
plants. Let's feed our soil well
balanced diet" he stated.
In discussing the proposed dis
trict for Ashe and Allegheny
counties, Mr.. Lee said there are
IL districts in operation in the
state now and that this service is
provided in most all of the noun
tain counties by the IVA, except
here in Ashe and Allegheny.
Slides graphically showed the
value of having a soil conserva-
ton project.

Tomorrow night (March 28)
is opening night for the Ashe
Theater. Our best wishes for
continued success 60 to Messrs.
Ben Reeves and Russell Barr
who have operated the Park
way Theater so successfully for
a number of years.
Because electricity is invisi-
BILE most people do not appre-
ciate how much they get for
so little money. For instance:
For the cost of one cigarette
a family can obtain perfect re-
frigeration for five hours, in a
good machine"
Cali the energy a man can
put forth in a day is equal to
only 4 per cent of the energy OF
one kilowatt."
"Who are those people who
are cheering?" asked the recruit
as the soldiers marched to the
train.
"Those," replied the veteran,
"are the people who are not 60
