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. HOTEL EMPIRE Opposite Union Depot on Pryor St. Renovated and refurnished through¬ out.
