Rotary Speaker
Stressed Need Of Vocational
Agriculture In Schools
OF County

w. B. Austin told the members
of the Rotary Club last week that
1--WE would be better fitted to
help win the war and the peace
in Ashe county if we had voca-
tional training in our schools.
He pointed out that students
were different and should be
taught about the things they are
interested in. "Since the MAORI
ty of the young people of Ashe
county are reared on the farm and
interested in farming, we should
have agricultural departments in
our schools, he declared.
Langdon Scott had charge of
the program. Roy Grouse is pro-
gram chairman for the meeting
tonight.
