SCORECARD FOR SCHOOL DEPARTMENT
RULES*
1 Ali exhibits in this department are limited to the public schools of Cherokee County.
2." All work must be done by the pupils under the direction of the teachers of the public
schools. -
3 In'preparation of exhibits teachers should bear in mind that the judges consider 1st. Ed-
ucation value to the children doing the work; 2nd. Quality of the work ; and 3rd. Interest and
general value as a school exhibit.
4. Space about 7x8 feet will be allotted to each school to display its exhibit as a whole and
each school will be responsible for the placing, arranging and decorating the space allotted.
5 All exhibits must be in place not later than 4 :00 p. m. Thursday the day of the opening of
the exhibit. Exhibit building will be open all day Saturday for placing and arranging exhibits.
6. Everything must be shown exactly as called for in the scorecard. Any shortage in any sec-
tion shall cause score of exhibit to be cut according to the judges discretion, but not more than
the total number of points allotted for the missing exhibits.
7. Articles not called for in the scorecard must not be shown, except for decorative purposes.
No article used for decoration shall be considered as exhibits for competition.
8. By way of suggestion—Keep your exhibit well balanced. Don't let one side get top heavy.
Feature exhibits, rather than decorations. 1
9. Judging will be done by scoring each school exhibit according to the provisions of the
scorecard. The winners will be those schools receiving the highest total scores for their ex-
hibits.
10. The name of the pupil, or pupils, teachers, grade and school must be placed on each ex-
hibit. >
11. Space as mentioned above and a table will be furnished to each school that has a display.
12. It will be necessary for you to notify the county superintendent's office of your entry not
later than February 22nd.
NOTE—In scoring exhibits the judges will take each sub-division and score it separately, then
add the scores of the sub-divisions to obtain the total score for the exhibit.
In scoring the sub-divisions the following example is offered:
PROJECT DISPLAYS: count 150 points.
School No. 1. has three projects which are graded respectively 85, 90, and 92 equal 267 divided
by 3 equal 89 per cent.
School No. 1. has 89 per cent of 150 points 133.5 points.
School No. 2 has five projects which are graded respectively 75, 80, 85, 90, 95 equal 425 divid-
ed by 5 equal 85 per cent.
School No. 2 has 85 per cent of 150 points—127.5 points, and so on through all the sub-divisions.
Thus it will be seen that the small school has an equal chance with the large school, as it is
the quality of the work rather than the size of the exhibit that will WIN.
DETAILED SCORECARD FOR PRIMARY
Includes 1st. 2nd. ands3rd. Grades
Every school exhibit must be made up according to the scorecard which is as follows:
1. Freehand Pencil Drawing 75 points

Dr. T. H CobbU; has just com-
pleted and mo\ed into his new,
commodious and admirable new
cottage, on South Crockett, con-
structed in lieu of the one de-
stroyed by tire early last spring.
The r^ew structure is covered
with red brick, most artistically
plated. It contains eight c >m-
inodious rooms and two baths,
with tloors of sheet ro :1< and
hard wood finish, and roofed
with J. Mansfield asbestos
shingles and is tire proof
throughout, with the exception
of the tloors.
The wiring is ail in conduits
and iion piping, and in fact,
everything is of the latest con-|
ception for convenience, comfort'
and safety and is a really mod-
ern home, such ;is but few can
better enjoy than Dr. Cobble I
and his estimable family.
Mrs. Lena Gragard and sister, |
Miss Maud Ricketts, of Jack-
sonville, visited their bi other,

"I HAD been through

my time on the bed.
I waa very nervous, and the
least thing upeet me. I did not
hare strength'enough to lift a
broom. At times I would have
bad headaches, which would
hurt me until I could hardly sea.

what it would do for me. It

Your Corn Crop
LIKES
IS it jost another corn crop for you this
year, or have you decided to join the
ranksof farmers who make a crop that really
ig a crop ? Now is the time to decide... and
you can just as easily make a good crop. No
luck to it... just one single rule for success.
Chilean Nitrate of Soda is the difference
between a good corn crop and a poor one. A
side dressing with this nitrate fertilizer
(the only natural nitrate in the world)
greatly increases the yield. Makes larger
ears with more corn per ear and more ears
per-stalk.
A Texas Farmer
G. Ross Weight, Omaha, Morris County,
uses'Chilean Nitrate of Soda on all his
crops. Here is what he says about this nat-
ural nitrate fertilizer on corn:
"1 have found that Chilean Nitrate will
doubhemy yield of corn."
He-uses it on fruit trees, too, with profit-
able results.
Chilean%Nitrate is not synthetic. It is mm <l
and refined in Chile, largely by American
capital, brought herein American ships and
sold to American farmers at a low price.
