Davidson county claims the champion girl bread baker and the champion boy swine judge, as the results of contests at the recent State Fair. Miss Daisy Wilson, a young girl of Arcadia, was awarded State championship in the bread making contest at Raleigh over competitors from a number of counties. Irma Snider, another young girl of Linwood, stood fourth among those in the State. These two girls won trips to the State Fair at a bread making contest held at Lexington, N.C., in the spring in which about a thousand girls and women participated from first to last. It was the first train trip for either of them, but they came through with colors flying.
Dewey Lambert of Churchland high school, who dries a consolidated school truck to pay tuition and board, was the champion swine judge. He received a cash prize of $20.
All of these winners are students in rural consolidated schools of Davidson county.
