CONGREGATIONALS
WON THE PIANO
Votes in Contest Were Polled and
Sunday School Was the
Winner.

At the finish of the contest for the
piano offered by the Home Merchants
it was found that the six contestants
had formed into two groups, bunch
ing their votes as follows:
st. Joseph's hospital and the Lee
County farm had put their votes to-
gether. They had an aggregate of p
629,O00 votes.
Opposed to them was combina-
ton of the other four contestants, the
Congregational Sunday School class
number three; the high school, Ora
ham hospital and the Baptist Sunday
School class. They polled an aggre-
gate vote of 3,522,00o. and won the
piano as the first prize
The votes of the latter group were
voted in the name of the Congrega-
tional girls as they had the most
votes.
These four contestants share the
proceeds from the piano in proportion
to the number of votes cast.

Eight high schools in Iowa and I'LL
nois have formed themselves into
what is known as the "Big Eight"
conference, patterned in many ways
after the big Eight. and big -Four"
college conferences. The onl. re-
gretable feature Of the organization is
the fact that Keokuk, acknowledged
to have the leading high school in
southeastern Iowa. has been left out
in the cold. The eight schools be-
longing to the conference. announced,
since the recent admission of Daven-
port, are Rock Island, Moline, Burling
ton. Galesburg, Princeton, Kewanee,
Monmouth and Davenport. The object
Is to have athletic relations and de-
bates
It might be argued that Keokuk is
too far away to fit perfectl-- into this
conference, but the single drawback
would be the mileage. This would
be easily overcome by the Fact that
local athletic followers would learn
that the school is in higher company
and the patronage would correspond
ingly increase. The conference will
also serve to eliminate I Tculties
over officials and the many wrangles
will likewise be done away with.
George Marshall, former principal
Of the Keokuk high school, is quite
interested in the new organization and
will likely be instrumental in pushing
1t in the future.
The board of athletic control of the
Iowa state High Schools Athletic As

wheat is counted by traders as a
bearish item and must ultimately in

tally as exports have been moderate

exceptionally fine. The weather is
generally favorable for crop move

have a temporary influence, but i'm

there is a very marked influence in

What TO DO
WITH GAME FUND

Disposal Of Money Received
by State for Hunters

LEE COUNTY DONATES
Large Part Of the Revenue Come From

LEE COUNTY DONATES

The question of what to do with
the big fund in the department of the
state game and fish warden Is caus-
Ing the sportsmen OF the state to sit
up and take notice In former years
there had never been an overabund-
arlce of money, and the immense
amount received from the resident
shooters fees is something of sur
prise to the state officials and to the
army of shooters. The fund has now
reached total of $S6,325.
This sum represents the fees paid
by s6,325 shooters in the state of
Iowa. 1t means that number OF
persons are in the habit of going out
after game, some infrequently of
course. and many persistent hunters.
1t forms an evidence of the number
Of persons in Iowa who might be
called upon to carry gun If trouble
breaks out between Uncle Sans gov
eminent and some other nation.
Just at present, however, the man
ner of using this tidy bunch of mon
ey is causing discussion. That it
may be profitably expended in the
preservation of the existing fish and
game, and the introduction of new va
rieties is the opinion Of many shoot
ers and anglers. Before the new
year is far advanced no doubt the dis
position of the fund will be announced
