Those goods will come in some where between 10th and 15th of January. So you just be ready for them when they come, for we will sell them just like we bought or way below any dealer in Carters ville.

Mr. Henry Milam, who now' has charge of the school. The purpose of this meeting was to | place before the .people of the com munity some plans for its weliare and for the advancement and development of the school both for the good the community and for the entire county. This was a real community meet ing. The ones present had the spirit and Mr. Milam, who is always awake to progress, put a great deal of en thusiasm into the pnes present. He used the blackboard in bringing his .message to his people. On one side of this board was this question ’‘What vil! you do with the year 1917?” Under this was this quotation, "A ship without a rudder drifts, a man without a purpose is like a ship without a rud der.” On the other side of this board the "Ten Tests of Progress” given be 'ow was written. They were discussed very fully and applied to the local community, fn many of these tests the Euharlee scores well. On the oth ers they are working. Ten Tests of Progress. 1. Proper church and Sunday school organizations. 2. A three-teacher school —with in struction in agriculture and domestic science and a school library patronized by both old arid young. 3. A community hall or auditorium in connection with the school in which the community can have community meetings. 4. A local farmers’ organization. 5. A club of fa:m women. 6. A community league, meeting quarterly for the discussion of all com munity questions. 7. A community fa upheld each fail. S. Young people organizations—in cluding literary, social and industrial features. 9. A credit union or mutual savings and loan association tax. 10. Recreation. The matter of getting the State Col lege of Agriculture to give us a school for farmers and farmers’ wives was discussed. All those present themselves as being very anxious for this school. They realized the value of such an opportunity individually, to the community and to the county. The courses most sought after are Farm Management, Seed Selection, Stock Raising and Fertilizers. Arrangements will be made for this course by Mr. M£lam when he with several farmers from over the county attend the Short Course at Athens for a few' days next week. Miss Burton, the County Home Dem onstration Agent, called the woman of the community together at this same meeting. Though the w'eather was very bad. quite a number of the women were present and entered heartily into the spirit of the meeting. For a number of years the State Col lege has been conducting schools for the farmers. Now we think it is time j to begin with a school for the women. The ladies present were very much in terested in this and Miss Burton wii J try to make arrangements for a school j for the women at the same time of the i one for the men. Courses will be | given in cooking, balanced meals, irouitrv, dairying and hotde manage | rnent. These* courses will be open not only Lo the farmers and farmers' wives of the Euharlee community but the peo ple of the entire county are urged to take advantage of this opportunity. It is simply one of the services the Bar tow Rural High school is render to the county. Co-operative buying and selling was fully discussed and some definite steps will be taken about this in the near future. The people of the community were very much interested in this phase of the work. Many of them will be compelled to buy feed stuffs on ac count of the floods last summer. The people of the community were so well pleased with the idea of com ing together in this manner and dis cussing ways and means for communi ty development that it was decided to make this meeting a permanent af fair, meeting at least quarterly. The social life will be stressed, as well as the .financial side, in these meetings. This was a meeting of a very pro gressive kind and The Tribune hopes this may be a starter for such meet ings in other communities. If we could have such meetings as this in the various communities and then have a big county meeting it would be fine. , We want to urge the people of the county to get behind the management oi the county high school. This institu tion seems to be putting forth every effort possible to serve the county in every possible way. It Is a great un dertaking, it is a great movement. We must support it.
