at first blush to exhibit grain,
grasses and roots at stock show,
but it does not seem strange when
it is remembered that these pro-
ducts constitute the raw material
and the live stock the finished
product. The idea of this exhibit
was born of the exhibit at the first
stock show from eastern visitors,

Edwin Dalton, the spy, as rep
resented by Prof. briggs is the
strongest part in the production,
and was well impersonated. A.
p. Mortensen did well in the rep
rescntation of St. Clair, the villain
of the plot. Mr. Mortensen has
'he dignitied bearing and acts
we'll. 1t is not the easiest thing in
the world for an American to talk
the Dutch brogue, but Steve Tay-
lor, as a fat Dutchman command
ing the awkward squad - covered
the ground well and created a fusi-
lade of laughter Messrs. Charles
johnson and r. i. Mortensen both
did well in the impersonation of
old men. VIII Thomas, as Pete
made "A decided hit" The three
ladies, Mrs. briggs, as Mrs. Maud
Dalton; Grace Crowther, as the
elderly Mrs. Dalton; and Dora
Taylor, as Carrie Dalton in love
with st. Clair, acted their parts
we'll, although in military drama
women have very little to do.
Charlie Dalton, son of farmer Dal-
ton, was given good treatment in
the hands of June Mortensen. In
deed, all did their parts well and
the play was complete success
considering the limited stage facil-
tiles and the heavy character of
the drama. Special mention must
be made of the character Little

In an article published in the
Youths Companion of Septem-
Der 23rd, 1909, DIR. Browne, the
great medical authority on
foods, says, about brain and
muscle building
There is one kind of food
that seems to me of marked
value as a food to the brain and
to the whole body throughout
childhood and adolescence
(youth), and that is oatmeal.
Oats are the most nutritious
of all the cereals, being richer
in fats, organic phosphorus and
lecithins."
He says oatmeal is gaining
ground with the well-to-do of
Great Britain. He speaks of it
as the mainstay of the Scottish
laborer's diet and says it pro-
