Will Result in New Cover for the
Theater, Pro-
gram.

Not satisfied with the three-color design
on the cover page OF the Burwood pro-
gram. the management invited its patrons
to submit sketches and color designs that
might be suitable for the program cover.
As an inducemert a season ticket to the
performances Of the Burwood Stock COM
pany was offered as a prize to the one
whose design should be accepted. Twen-
ty-six designs Of varying merit were SUBJ
mitted. 1t was intended that a COMMITTEES
should select the most suitable design, but
there was such a difference Of opinion
that the judges gave up the job without
picking the winner. II is now proposed
that the matter Of choice be left 20 the
patrons OF the theater, the OF es who viii
use the programs. Therefore the twenty
six sketches have been numbered and
placed In the lobby and patrons are in
vited to look them over and then cast
their vote, The contest will close Novem-
Der 2, Thanksgiving day. Vote early and
often.

CATTLE-Receipts Of cattle were small

Ill cars a week ago and 498 cars two weeks
ago. At the same time there was a feeling
that receipts would be rather moderate
the balance of the week, as shippers would
naturally wish to remain at home Until
after election. The quality of the offer
made up very largely OF cow stuff and of
the common kinds of COWS at that.
There was considerable inquiry for fat
steers, but the supply was hardly large
enough to really make a market. Desir-
able kinds could safely be quoted 10c higher
and the most of them changed hands in
very good season in the morning.
sold at prices that. were generally as much
as 1Oc higher, while the common and In
ferior grades OF Gamers were not so much
sought after, but still prices were fully
steady with last week.
. Stockers and feeders were in good de-
mand and generally sold about 10c higher
than last week. AS the supply was small
pretty much everything changed hand in
very good season.
