POULTRY SHOW
BIG SUCCESS
The Garvin County Poultry
show last Thursday, Friday and
Saturday, the third annual show,
was the biggest and best yet.
There was 241 birds exhibited
this year against 191 last year,
and the quality generally was an
improvement over any previous
exhibition
Nothing has done as much to
stimulate an interest in the rais
ing of fine chickens in this coun-
ty as hits the association in its
three annual shows, and so well
pleased [are the promoters and
people generally that the annual
show will be made a permenent
thing.

law that makes a parent or guar
dian subject to a fine, who neg
lets or refuses to cause or compel
any of their children or wards,
over the age of eight and under
the age of sixteen, to attend 66
per cent of the number of days
the school is maintained. We
shall try to have this law strictly
enforced, for every boy and girl
in. Pauls Valley should be in
school. I should be glad to have
any person let me know of any
children not attending school.
