Second Lowest inr 25 Years

sure. The next year, in 1927, the acre
age was reduced from 1.985,000 to 1,-
728 acres. While it went up a little the
foiloxring year, reaching V,980.000 acres
and stood at 1,892,000 acres in 1929,
there began that year a concerted ef
fort at further voluntary reduction.
It was during this same year that
the "live-at-home” campaign was
launched' In earnest’ with afll agricul
tural agencies cooperating at the re
quest of the governor. Consequently,
in 1930, acreage dropped to 1.631,000
and to 1,348,000. or a decrease 283,000
acres in a single year.
Tn this connection, it is significant
that the nft reduction of the 1930
acreage under the 1925 acreage was
669,000 acres, while, during that same
period the number of bales dropped
from 1,102,000 to 750.000. All this was
in vindication of the voluntary meth
od as opposed to the legislative meth
od, and should one make a study of
the agricultural situation in North
Carolina as a whole, it would be seen
that the State has. during its period
of voluntary cotton acreage reduction,
produced more food and feedstuff
than in any previous period.
Furthermore, it has been proved
that North Carolina has more than
kept faith xrith the rest of the South.
While last years total crop was well
up in to a maximum. North Carolina
had no part in helping to provide this
surplus, when it is taken into con
sideration that It produced 18,000
fewer bales than during 1930.

Lillian's mind was beginning to
.dinar, beginning t» silt things, Mts

Marsh's manner.
“Howard Marsh knew I needed a
Job,” she said. “I told him . . . and
He acted Very strangely. Rept say
ing he thought f was a school girl
. In Dutch with the dean, you
know—"
The girl nodded encouragement.
“He said last night would I taka
a job. one my mother would approve
—well, he said, she’d approve It 1
made It up to her Ideas, you see . . .
and he wanted to know If I wax
positive that I was eighteen. . . "
Lillian eras being very young.
Thinking aloud. Using this strange,
friendly girl as her clearing house
for thoughts.
’ Well, ardn’t you—a school girl?"
Lillian was quickly to fhd defen
rive. “T am nott Tve come to New
York to find a Job —and I'm not go
ing horns ... not If I hnve to
starve. . .
No matter what nicks Lillian’s
vanity had received through the dap
per Howard her determination about
herself remained unchanged.
“You didn’t disgrace the family
name or anything of the sort?” the
girl asked, smiling a little.
“Well, not as bad as that . . . but
I’ve left home for good. I’m going t«
get a Job.”
“You’ve got one—l take it."
“Why dldtPt’ he tsll me, then?"
* “Thenglit ydUr would high hat the

thought you’d gw for It when you
really found out what It was like."
Lillian wondered.
“It’s really a lot sf fun. And It’s
like he says. It’s up to the girl to
make of It what she will. This joh
of being a professional hostess is
,really something you could tell the
folks hack home about— not that

“All you need Is a pleasant smile,

The girl leaned hack for a good

haus has openly courted the favor ot
the school teacher's and school petit]
dans by declaring hW oppoombn to
any economy that might injure the
schools.
“My mind rises in revolt against any
philosophy of economy which trains
50 per cent of its guns on the chil
dren of our State and seeks to un
dermine with penury our educational
system." Ehringhaus in his speech at
Wadesboro Monday night. "While we
cannot countenance extravagonce, it
is u destructive policy that would cut
the heart ou of tour educational sys
tem, even in these times of stsess.
There is a point beyond which we
run not cut sehool dxpdnse.s."
This kind - of talk is helping to make
Ehringhaus more solid with the
school teachdrs and school politicians.
But so far he has been careful to
commit himself with regard to the
amendment the school leaders are urg
ing to abolish the board of equaliza
tibn and* restore more power to the
school forces. There Is no doubt that
Ehringhaus is much more popular in
school circles now than he was a few
weeks ago. Maxwell is also courting
the favor of the school forces and has
made some good gains recently.
