W. H. D. CONTESTS ARE
GETTING MANY ENTRIES

SABINE ORGANIZES W. H. D.
CLUB; 19 CHARTER MEM-
BERS; OFFICERS ELECTED
Sabine (Rt. 4, Lindale), Nov. 22—
Nineteen ladies were present here
Thursday afternoon when Miss Huff*
hiijes, County Home Demonstration
Agent, met with them for the purpose
of organizing a W. H. D. Club. All
these ladies are home-makers striving
to get new ideas, to learn better ways
of doing things, shorter ways of do-
ing long jobs, to acquire new knowl-
edge that will make home life more
Practically all of the Womans Home
Demonstration clubs of Smith county
have chosen their officers for the com-
ing year and are getting down to
work on the various projects which
will engage them during 1928. There
are, we believe, twenty-two clubs in
the county according to the 1927 Year
Book. Two of these clubs most re-
cently organized and given working
dates on the “visitation calendar” of
Miss Huffhines, are Gresham and Sa-
bine, both of which have a very large
and a very active membership. Other j brook, President; Mrs. Earl McDade,
communities are asking that clubs be I Vice President; Miss Willie Mae John-
organized; but with twenty-two W. son, Secretary, and Mrs. Walter
pleasant and enable them to do their
home work more efficiently. This is
the first club of its kind to be organ-
ized in this section, and many of
those present have long desired the
Organization, but constant demand up-
on the Home Demonstration Agent’s
time did not permit her to respond to
the call of Sabine community for or-
ganization at an earlier date.
Officers chosen upon organization
of the club were: Mrs. J. H. Hol-

.Clubs, the total membership of which
exceeds one thousand, Miss Huffhines
states that she will find it very dif-
ficult to have regularly organized
clubs in communities not now orgqm-
ized. However, she states that she
will try to accommodate a few more
of those communities by meeting with
them at such occasional times as she
can possibly spare from her office
work which is now' requiring much
more of her time by virtue of the
large membership of the girls and
women’s clubs that are already organ-
ized and at work.
Rural Homes Beautiful Contest
It will be Vecalled that a Rural
Homes Beautiful Contest was inaug-
urated last year under the patronage
of Mrs. Thomas E. Swann who gen-
erously gave $300.00 in cash prizes.
Mrs. Swan is repeating her offer of
prizes for the coming year, under the
same general rules as applied in the
contest closing last June. Entries to
this contest will be received thru De-
cember, and possibly during early Jan-
uary if announcement is not made to
the contrary in the meantime. The
sooner you enter this contest and be-
gin to receive your instructions the

Better Living Room Contest
For several years the F arm Exten-
sion Service of A. & M. College has
fostered thru its Home Demonstration
Agents what is known as the “Improv-
ed Kitchen Contest.” For 1928 it will
foster instead the “Improved Living
Room Contest,” having prizes as it
has hitherto had in the kitchen con-
tests. Nineteen W. H. D. Club mem-
bers in Smith county had entered this
contest up to Nov. 20. Entries to
this contest will close December 1. It
is very important, therefore, that all
who plan to enter the Living Room
Contest should send their names to
Miss Huffhines by December 1. Many
more should enter this contest, for it
will be both interesting and profitable.
Following are the entrants to Nov.
20:

Improved Kitchen Contests
The A. & M. College Extension
Service is not fostering the improved
kitchen contest this year; and some
counties will not have that on their
program of club activities. However,
in Smith county Miss Huffhines will
conduct this contest just as she has
for the past two years. There will be
a number of valuable prizes given to
the winners, including trips to the
College Short Course next year. The
closing date for entries to this con-
test has not yet been decided upon by
Miss Huffhines. But she suggests
that there ought to be as many or
m,ore entries than the big list of
-4926 and 1927—and that it will make
her work easier and your chances of
success surer if you enter immediately
and let her begin helping you plan
your improvements. Following are
the entries in the Improved Kitchen
Contest up to Nov. 20;
Mrs. J. M. Taylor, Tyler, Rt. H; —
Mrs. Edd McMillan, Tyler, Rt. 10;
Mrs. R. S. Boulter, Swan;

Miss Huffhines complimented the j
community upon the large number j
who formed “charter members” of the
club. She reminded them that all |
W. H. I). Club members “get out of j
their clubs just what they put into
them.” If they put service into their |
club work, they get service out of
their clubs. Every member listed at I
the organization was put on the “mem-
bership committee,” and they are all
at work planning and expecting that
their club will shortly be one of the
largest and most efficient in the coun-
ty. It was decided that the club
would meet on the first and third
Thursday afternoons in each month,
the Home Demonstration Agent to
be present with them on each third
Thursday.
The business session being conclud-
ed a short demonstration was given
in the making of baskets and trays,
both processes proving very interest-
ing. A bonnet pattern of special de-
sign, “something different”, was dis-
tributed to the members.
FUNERAL OF G. M. MUSICK
WAS CONDUCTED AT MIXON
(From The Troup Banner)
Funeral services for George M. Mu-
sick were conducted by Rev. Fount
Wallace Monday afternoon at Mixon,
with burial in the Mixon cemetery.
There was a large crowd at the fun-
eral, including many friends from
Jacksonville, Arp, Troup and Mixon.
Mr. Musick, B3 years old, died Sun-
day afternoon in a Jacksonville sani-
tarium, after an operation for acute
appendicitis. His death followed a
brief illness.
He is survived by his wife, three
daughters, three sons, four sisters
and two brothers. His daughters are,
Mrs. George Elliott and Misses Leta
Mae and Myra Musick, all of Troup;
the sons, Addis L. Musick and M. M.
Musick, both of Mixon, and Delbert
Musick of Troup. The sisters are
Mrs. Hardy Kelley, Mrs. Rosa Long
and Mrs. Sousa Ross, all, of Mixon;
and Mrs. Pearl Meyers of Troup; and
the brothers are Omar Musick
Mixon and Tom Musick of Dallas.
Mr. Musick was horn and reared
near Jacksonville, and had lived' in
this section all his life. During the
past few years he and his family have
had charge of the Hesterly Hotel at
Troup, during which time they have
made a large number of friends here.:

TROUP 61—BOGATA 13
Friday afternoon in the last foot-
ball game to be played at Troup this
season, Troup won by an easy mar-
gin against Bogata. The scores were
61 to 13. In the first quarter Troup
scored 2B points through the line;
and in the second quarter Troup’s
second string of players were put in,
including J. D. Collier Jr., Malcolm
Maris and Heath Pool, who showed
good ability in the game. Bogata
scored during the first and fourth
quarters, both being long forward
passes. It appears to be the general
opinion of those who saw the game
last Friday that Bogata played the
cleanest, fairest game of any team
Troup has met this season.
After the game Miss Marguerite
Parnell gave the visitors a picture
show party, after which they were
entertained at the Parnell home where
interesting games were enjoyed, and
refreshments consisting of sandwich-
es and punch were served.
The final game of the season for
Troup will be between Troup and
Henderson on Thanksgiving Day at.
