A seed bed which is prepared {

better for lespedeza since a fresh

seed to be beaten into the soil too

Lespedeza seed which contain any

Mr.. R. A. Luter. Jr., Vocational
Teacher in the Coxburg Schol, has
done an outstanding piece of leader
ship work in his community working
with boys. The All club boys appre-
ciate the assistance Mr.. Luter is

Coxburg All clubs have 70 boys

Shows Unity &
ACo-operative
Spirit In. Ashe
Movement Extends Over Per
iod of Nearly Four Years.
First Meeting In '38.
THOUSANDS HELPED

The history of the movement to
establish a modern Hospital in
Ashe county extends over a per-
iod of nearly four years and clear
ly demonstrates that there are
many leaders in the county with
unselfish vision and that the peo-
pie of the county are glad to CO.
operate in an activity that is for
the common good of all.
This history is a romantic story
of struggle and success. From the
very beginning it was generally
agreed that the county needed a
Hospital, but there were only
very few persons who believed
and who said, cit can be done.
With undaunted courage and
determination, these few persons
set to work thinking, talking
planning and after giving the pro-
posal every consideration for sew
eral months, definite action was
started.
Post Pushes Movement
During the prior years, few
attempts had been made to estab-
lish a Hospital, but none of them
had been successful. In its issue
of January 6, 1888, when several
men in the county were thinking
and dreaming of a county Hos
pital, this paper published a list
of ''15 Goals for 1888" and head
ing the list was this goal, ITO es-
tablish a Hospital in Ashe coun-
ty". The "lead" editorial in this
same issue was devoted to this
subject and was entitled, Getting
a Hospital. The great need for
such an institution was pointed
out and the editorial concluded
with this suggestion-"Let's think
it over and start making plans to
establish one. WPA will help and
probably the Duke Endowment
will too. Both of these sugges-
tions came true. WPA helped in
large way, in fact nearly $780,
900 worth and the Duke Endow-
ment has given to date $1,000 for
furnishings and equipment.
The first Hospital meeting"
was held on Tuesday night, Aug
ust 2, 1888, in the office of DR.. B.
E. Reeves, under the sponsorship
of the community service commit
tee of the Jeffersons Rotary club.
Representatives from various or
CARNATIONS in the county were in
vited to attend this meeting and
to discuss the ACCESSIBILITY and
possibility of establishing a coun-
ty hospital.
Committees Appointed
At this meeting committees
were appointed and these includ-
ed needs committee, Rev. R. H.
Stone, chairman; public relations
committee, Ed M Anderson; fl
nance committee, J. B. Hash,
personnel committee, DR.. B. E.
Reeves; disqualification and insur-
ance committee, R. r. Badger,
chairman.
At the next meeting of the COM
mittees, reports were given and
a committee was, appointed to
contact the Duke Endowment and
the WPA and to determine which
agency could give the greatest
amount of assistance or if aid
could be obtained from both of
them. Wade Eller served as chair
man of the meeting.
