-Named "Dairy Special Lou"

On Train During Tour.

dairy train the stork was the most

little black and white heifer calf.
The bovine infant has been christened
Dairy Special Lou" and will be kept
on the dairy train throughout the re-
mainder of the tour as mascot.
Louie Lou, the mother Of the calf
is one of the great cows Of the Hol-
stein-Friesian breed and last year
produced over 100 pounds of milk
a day. She is being exhibited to the
farmers and dairymen Of southern
Iowa as the correct type of dairy
COW to be bred to build up the herd
OF mich cows to the most productive
character
Although being born on the dairy
special adds nothing to the value OF
an animal of the bovine family,
Dairy Special Lou" is from such arts

.DISPENSAT|ON
NOT RECEIVED
NO ANNOUNCEMENT MADE HERE
PERMITTING CATHOLICS TO EAT
MEAT ST. PATRicK's DAY.

Catholics OF Ottumwa are interested
in an edict which has been published
from the Chicago diocese to the effect
that a dispensation been secured
whereby meat may be eaten on St.
Patrick's day this year. 1t falling on
Friday.
up to the present time, no such an
nouncement has been made in this
dioceseAand although there is much
comment and speculation, 1t is not
believed that dispensation will pre-
vail here.
Following is Chicago despatch in
this regard:
Catholics may eat meat on st. Pat
rick's day even though 1t falls on Fri
day this year. A special dispensation
from Archbishop James F. Quigley
granting this concession was read in
ali of the churches in the city Sunday
morning. This is the first, time that
such ruling has been made IN the
diocese Of Chicago. :.
The Rt.- Rev. Paul P. Rhode in ex-
planning the new ruling said
T "The Holy See recently decided that
when ST. Patrick's day falls on Fri
day any archbishop may at his dis
erection permit meat to be eaten on
that festival in his diocese 1t SO hap
pens that this is the first time that
this ruling ha been applied in Chi
cago. A similar ruling was made by
the Holy See regarding the eating Of
meat on Christmas when that day
falls on Friday.
This concession was made to en-
able Irish Catholics to celebrate to the
fullest extent their only national
holiday"
