About yowr their parents in order to get their consent and backing and to make up their minds definitely by Friday. Last Friday Mr. Boylston came again and the boys were called together for a short meeting. It was at this meet ing that twenty-four signed up to join thu club and to undertake some kind of project. > Those who joined the club did so of their own free will, there beingno coercion whatever, because Mr. Boyls ton felt that unless a boy entered the Things You Should Know i by Johr. Joseph Gain;*, M. D. work of his own accord, he would not be a help to the club. Twenty-four of the boys joined last Friday and probably there will be others who will Join within the next week. The boys who joined ranged from the fifth grade through the high school. They are expected to begiri on their project at once and to carry, it through. Details of the organization have not. yet been worked out. Probably an other meeting wlU.be called within the next ten days for the purpose of electing a leader who is a local man and the other necessary officers. The club will meet once each month to discuss matters of interest which arise from the several projects, and it will be in these meetings that the troubles which each boy finds in carrying out his project will be dis- tjusaed and some solution Will be offerad. At . each meeting the County Agent will be present and lead in the discussion. It is the idea of Supt. King to make this Agricul tural Club a sort of society in which- the bpy will be taught to speak ^in public and express him^etr This will be a trajnipg that will do him good the rest of Ins life. Judging from the interest manifest at the initial meetings a successful - club is THE SIMPLE LIFE <§ s’ We have : almost, abandoned wholesome, air-cur^ neats, from which most of'tfce deeuly nitrogens have bcerya-tnioved by the pure air ''country, and ha\e espoused t^L-ad the chemically treated prq- ^\of commerce. During a frac tion of the year we eat fresh vege tables frbm the gardenr-at least x of li duct some of us others buy vegeta- t bibs that have mast-cd through a half-dozen dealers! hands—wilted and stale. Most of the year we re sort to the factory product, housed within its tin can, from tfre^shelves of the wholesaler. Verily the road back to the simple life is grown Longer every feverish minute, 1 the simple life is the ‘strong lieu tenant of health and happiness. The law of right living has been ignored, trampled upon, despised. We fill our bodies with food at the hours when the digestion is at itv .lowest efficiency — we overpower the stomach, thus starving the nerves. Hours of rest are pirated into hours of activity,-until the in evitable failure comes then we consult the specialist to find out why we can’t sleep! Very-few peo ple observe the Sabbath day; it is spent in the harness. There is a great measure of happiness in ac complishment, it is true,—but not at the expense of life and health. Greed and speed are the un wholesome twin sisters of early ob sequies. This applies as well at the dinner-table as in the marts of trade, end on the paved highway. To abandon both is to take a long step forward io health, happiness and longer life! Next Week ised our school. The boys were interested in several different kinds of projects. Corn and cotton were the most popular, however, with poultry in third place. Each boy is advised to try only one project at a time, but if he wishes to, he might try two, but no more than two. The majority of the boys will tackle only one, how'ever, and we be lieve if he gives his time and energy to this one, he will have ^iis hands full. While the club is an agricultural one primarily, yet all work and no play-doesn’t suit Jack, and-se we are going to bring in the work a. little play as well. The local leader will probably plan outings of some sort, such as a camping trip in the summer ora trip to visit the projects of the ifferent boys. Then there .will prob- be an encampment of all the dub ^boys in the county under the supervision of the County Agent, and if possible\we want our boys to be in on that. We realize thht the boys will get CIGARETTE SHOEING out of the club juK what they put thatNre; into it, and for that\reason, it is very essential that the^lpcal leader be a man who can keep up the inter est and bring out of the. boys all that is good in them. Boys, you have taken the initial step now, lets get down to business and put this thing across in fine style. Honor Roll For February. First Grade—Gary Anderson, Ed ward Towne, Frank B.

V * ' Very likely you arc paying the Packard price lor motor car transportation while believing you cannot aSord a Packard. Thousands do. • ’ '. > Yet while they long for Packard Six comfort, beauty and distinction others own and drive these fine cars at an actual saving in money over the cost of compromise transportatiorir last year by Packard Six buyers had been driven an average of only 1S.067 miles! You too can own a Packard Six. Before you buy your next motor car, use a pencil and a scratch pad before you use a pen and a check book* * Most of the items of cost in owning a car are the same as between a Packard Six and any car at even half its price. It costs little more to insure the Packard than the half-price car. No more to garage it—no more to license it—no more for a wash and polish! Interest on your Packard investment will be av few cents a day higher—but less fre quent and lower repair charges under Packard's Oat rate service plan far ofiset that item. Depreciation cost every one of those owners eight cents a mile! They, none of them, spent a total of over three cents a mile for gasoline, oil and tires. If you are one of the thousands who buy a half-price car every year or two— every 15,000 to 20,000 miles—you can own and drive a Packard Six for less money. r Packard Six owners report 14 to 16 miles to a gallon of gasoline, 1,000 miles or more to a gahon of motor oil, 15*000 to 20,000 miles per set of tires. What half-price car does better? More than twice as many Packard Six cars were sold last year as in 1924. And 70% of all these sales were mad*, to thou who had been buying lower-priced can frequently. But those items, so strongly stressed by most manufacturers, are relatively un important! Depreciation is the really important charge. Depreciation costs many motorists 2 or 3 times as much per mile as. they pay for gas, oil and rubber together. These can keep their new cars two or three times as long as the cars they turned in —and they intend to do it. On such a basis they drive the car they have always wanted at a lower-per-mile cost than they have ever paid. The used car most often turned in It is "a fact that 96% of those who have bought Packard Six cars during the past Eve years are still Packard owners* They are not paying a heavy depreciation toll every year. You need not do so either. The Packard Six five-passenger sedan with all necessary accessories in cluding spare tire and with freight a.nd tax paid, is dilivered at your door for $2,850. Thousands have bought Packard Six cars without ever paying out more than $200 in cash at any one time, used care allowance consider- / ed; the payments seldom exceeding $150 a month. Packard cars are now being sold on the basis of the new tax rate W. D. HARLEY Barnwell, South Carolina mM fortnl i niii ii In no in i i.wn ■ -
