ISHORT8C0URSE
Meeting Of Officers He'll Last Satur-
day Largely Attended and Many
Plans Are Perfected.
ARRANGING THE PREMIUM LIST
Of Solicitation-List Of Premiums
to Be Published Soon.

The officers and directors of the
| Crawford County-Ames short course
held meeting in the Commercial
club rooms Saturday afternoon to talk
short course. The meeting was well
attended and from all appearances the
farmers in the county are taking an
active interest in the coming course.
The work of compiling the premium
list has not as yet been completed,
but we are Informed that it will be
leady TOR the prin ters the first week in
January. Messrs. w. G. Rollins, John
Woodruff and Art Houston were in
Omaha Tuesday and secured a num-
Der of valuable premiums. While it
is not known just what the total value
of the premiums to be awarded dur
ing the coming short course is. it is
thought that it will exceed that of last
year. AS whole the premiums for
the February short course are far
more valuable than those of year
ago. At the meeting Saturday after
noon a committee of the Friday club
met with the officers and made ar
rangements for a baby show to be
held short course week. This show
was talked of for old settlers picnic
day last fall, but it was decided best
to hold the same during the short
course. The federation of woman's
clubs in the city has affiliated with
the short course organization and lend
ing aid in every way possible to
make the coming course successful.

A Christmas Stocking.

1t is not always the gift itself, but
the way which it is presented that
commends itself particularly to the
recipient To the girl who thinks
she is too old to hang up her stock
ings, send a pair of silk stockings,
using one to fill, and roll up the other
and stick it in the foot The rest of
the stocking should be filled with in
expensive trifles-a home made jabot,
tie or collar, a handkerchief, some
candy, nuts, raisins, crab apples, a
card or calendar, perhaps some lit
tie kindly hints at her hobbies that
will amuse her. Each of these ar
ticles should be wrapped separately
in tissue paper and red ribbons, and
the excitement of opening the mystic
rious small packages will often exceed
the pleasure taken in one large gift
that would have cost no more than
