from Post Com mander Dyer. who Is in
a hospital at Mason City. in which he
states that the doctors assure him he

1t is anticipated that the report on
issuance of teachers certificates on
the July examinations. the work on
which has been concluded, will make
better showing Of good work for the
teachers than for the June examina-
tons. The markings have not been
any more rigid nor exacting. but a
large part of those who were examined
in July were making a second attempt
and had reviewed their studies. A
special examination will be taken this
month in every county but it is not
believed many will apply. So far as
known there is no complaint Of prob

Notes from Apple Convention

From Tuesdays Daily.
Mr.. t. II. Robbins said that he had
attended the institutes convention for
the past eleven years and that this
was the best year yet
Dr. Allen Bell said, Il have noticed
in the past few years that the tenden-
cy of the members of the society is
more towards fine quality of their ap-
pies than towards quantity. | believe
this tendency is due to the educational
facilities OF these institutes held year
ly. The social features of the insti-
tutes are also of great help, and pleas
ure to all of us. I am very enthusiast
tic over the possibilities of this socie-
ty."
A. NJ. Orendorff told the reporter:

lights me to know that we have more

Tuesday afternoon at 4 o'clock when
he was handed the Daily Record with
a full description of all that had

1t surprised him to know that Canon's

ties OF cold storage in his paper upon
that subject on Tuesday afternoon.

nearly all the time answering the
questions asked by enthusiastic fruit
growers seeking information

thoroughly both pro and con. Many
helpful facts were brought out by this

Mr.. A. S. Taylor. one of the best
versed fruit men in the Arkansas val

marks during the different sessions.

with everyone who partook of their

chant in town.
Mrs. Floyd, Mrs. Bowman, Mrs.

made that chicken pie ''fiy" when they
were dishing it up. Their quick work
and that of those who waited on table
