NEWTON IS TOAST
OF THE CORN SHOW
NEWTON’S CLAIM TO THE FIRST
CORN CLUB RECOGNIZED
NOW BY PEOPLE OF
ENTIRE STATE.
Newton county aga'n has something
to be proud of, in fact, she always
We reproduce a story which ap¬
peared in Hear bit's Sunday American,
December 7th, and it/ speaks for itself.
“Now that the Corn Club Show is
ended, the persistently patriotic peo¬
ple of Newton County have some¬
thing more to boast about.
“When the last stragglers of their
big delegation to the show left At¬
lanta Saturday, they were saying that
Newton Cuonty had made another
record, by having the most novel and
striking display at the whole shew.
“And they were right. There was
nothing else that approached it.
“They always are doing something
down there that gives them a chance
to lord it over the rest of the popula¬
tion of Georgia.
“To begin with, they rigged up the
t'ii st rural telephone sys em in the
world. At least, this is their claim,
and, so far as known, no one has
arisen to dispute it.
Get First Rural Delivery.
“Then, the first rural free delivery
n America was tried out right down
there n Newton County. Congress¬
man, Livingston generally is given the
•lodit for obtaining this innovaton.
“When the idea of travleing libra¬
ries for rural schools began, spreading
about the country, Newton County
was one of the first to try i* out.
“About this time, someone said that
it, would be a mighty good plan to en
courage attendance in the rural
3 cheols, by providing the younstprs
31 me way to get there besides walk¬
ing the roads in all kinds of weather.
Straightway Newton County adopted
:he scheme of sending a wagon
around to the various homes and
bringing the kidlets to school therein.
“But this was to be a story about
the growth of the corn club spirit in
Newton County, so there is no time
for mention of the Spring school
fairs, the county oratoricals and the
standardized rural schools, in all of
which movements this county pre
iesses to be a pioneer.
Big Newton Delegation.
“When young Georgians of all sizes
and descriptions began pouring into
Atlanta the first of last week, the del
egation from Newton County was one
of the largest and most enthusiastic.
With the lads came G. C. Adams,
father of the corn club idea in Dixie,
s well as of a fine family of indus¬
trious boys.
“Three of Mr. Adams’ sons accom¬
panied him to Atlanta—Cleveland,
itarles and John. Cleveland, the eld
est, this year is president of the corn
club that his father organized nine
years ago.
“It was back in 1904 that Mr. Ad
ams conceived the idea of corn clubs
n Georgia and thereby started some¬
thing. The movement now has spread
through the SoutbJ from the small be!
ginning it had a few miles south of
Atlanta.
“The project met with considerable
opposition at first Strangely enough
it was the farmers themselves who
opposed the formation of the clubs.
Commissioner at the time he took up
'be Corn Club work. He later became
president of the Fifth District Agri¬
cultural and Mechanical School, and
now is farming in Newton County.
Proud of Exhibit.
“With the remainder of the delega¬
tion, he was extremely proud of the
exhibit made by Newton County. A
topographical plat of the county was
laid out on a large platform, and on
it was arranged the boys’ exhibits,
under the direction of J. J. Corley,
Miss Clyde Willis, supervisor of do¬
mestic science in the Nehvton County
schools, and J. O. Martin, County
School Supernitendent.
“The plat showed the principal
roads and miniature houses repre;
seated the homes of prominent farm¬
ers in the country districts. Toy
wagons, loaded with real ears of corn
and attached to toy horses, were
placed on the various roads. These
were the boys’ exhibits, and each one
was placed relatively at the home of
the boy who brought it to the shew.
A doll sat atop each load of corn, to
complete the novel representation. A
card, bear'ng the name of the young
exhibitor and his picture, was placed
a' the side of every wagon.
