County Superintendent of Education Wants Fifty Boys?Prizes to be (iiven?39 Xotv on KolL The county superintendent of education, a? chairman of the boys' corn club for this county, is very anxious to s cure at least -r>0 boys in'this club. In some of the counties there are as | many as one hundred boys in the club. Of course, Newberry is one of the smaller counties and fifty or sixty boys would make a v-ery good club. The chairman does not desire any boy to enter, though, who is not willing to go into it with a determination to win, or do the very best he can. In other words, he would rather have a small club of an enthusiastic membership than a large club where there is indifference. In order that the boys may see who | has joined, the list is printed again. There are now 39 boys who have entered. The age limit is between 10 and 18, and one acre must be planted. The chairman of the club is very | anxious to have an enthusiastic, wideawake membership, and as soon as i the list is completed, he wants to havte a meeting of the boys at Newberry, and will endeavor to have some one who is in charge of this work ! present to talk to the boys. Commissioner Watson stated that there would ! be prizes open for the boys of the ? *-- ~ C< + ?-> + ? OVI/Ittt no TC^ll | couniy m uie owue tuiu juv? .. ? as the national corn show.
