Georgia Corn Club boyH were re turning to their homss Friday with th** happy thought that they had participated in the most successful corn nhow and the best parade since the organization of the c orn cluba in the South. It was a great parade. Jt (obtained its pre-eminence from the great crowds that watched it a a well an from th* hordes of Joyous corn club and high school boys that had a part in it. Traffic halted. The street railway company was powerless The boys simply pre-empted the streets and the crowd* did the rest. There waa no piercing the solid blocks of hu manity that congested the crossings and refused to move until the boys hud passed by. No one was buying anything in thp stores (Merka pnd the pretty young saleswomen deserted their work and ramc to the doors and windows with out fear of reprimand Blockade Finally Lifted. After the- last: of the marchers had disappeared from sight and the Iasi carriage had passed by the crowd thronged out on the street much in tiie manner that it takes possesion of a football field after the contest in over. For a few seconds the traffic- po licemen were at a loss. Then, the members of the crowd going their many ways, the streets magically » I oared. niotormen clanged their gongs viciously and the blockade was lifted. The 85 husky farm lads who had succeeded in reaching or passing the 100-bushel per acre mark were the recipients of the most generous show ers of c heers arid applause from the crowd* that lined the streets all the way from the Capitol, where the pa rade had its beginning, to the point where the happy marchers broke ranks. Each of the envied boys was rep resented by a large white sign held aloft to tell his name to all the world and to relate Just how many bushels to the acre he had succeeded in coax ing from Mother Earth. Welborn Proud Marcher. Proudly at the head of the 85 strode young Edward J. 'Welborn. Well lie might be proud, for he had i eclipsed the State record and had raised 181.72 bushels to the aare. a mark that any veteran farmer In the land might try for years to surpass. The canning c lub girls were not for gotten. They were in tin* parade in a mammoth sightseeing car in charge of Miss Lois i\ Dowdle, a district su pervisor. Miss Clyde Sullivan, of Owsley, and Miss Rron Dooley, of Bishop, winners of the first two canning club prizes, had the distinction of riding in a pri vate* carriage with Miss Mary E. Fresswell, of Washington. D. <\. Miss Elizabeth Holt, of the State' College of Agriculture, and Miss J. H. O’Quinn. A platoon of mounted policemen led the marchers. After the officers of the law followed the Fifth Regiment of the Georgia militia with the Fifth Infantry Hand.
