more or less fried chicken.
We will have such speakers as
Prof. w. A. Lippincott of Kansas,
Prof. A. G. Phillips and OTIS Crane
of Indiana, Prof. H. C. Pierce of the
United States Department of Food
Research and a number of poultry
experts from other states as well as
lot Of Missouri talent, including men
and women. We will not hold such
meeting at any place il It is not
backed by the business men and the
poultry try sialsers ot that section OF tae
state. We can make these woaier-
fully helpful and pleasant occasions.

time is insured everybody. VIII you

held?

ASLEEP AT THE SWITCH.

The Newton Daily News thus criti-
cises its own town:
When it comes to talking good
roads, and talk alone, the city of New
ton has about as remarkable record
as any city of her size in the state
The summer is ON the wane and prac-
tically nothing has been done in a
good roads way. This end of the
Newton-O skaloosa road remains I'M
marked. The little towns of Lynnyille,
Sully, TaintOr and Killduff have put
us to shame in this respect. They've
marked the road, all along the way.
But Newton hasn't moved.
"A stranger, would naturally ask,
what's the matter with Newton The
recent arrangement OF the county
roads by the county board of super
visors and the state highway commits
sion made of Newton -yeritable
Rome with roads emanating in every
direction. County roads lead out of
Newton in every direction like the
spokes OF a wheel, yet not road has
been recognized by the various boost
er organizations of this city"

HAS OVERCOME HARDsHiPs.

Under the above caption, the cur
rent issue of the Publishers Auxil-
larry" says of our good friend and
neighboF:
"A. p. Norton, the retiring presi-
dent of the Southern Iowa Editorial
association, is one of the successful
publishers of Iowa who has reached
the goal after many hardships and
struggles that dishearten' so many
young men in the beginning of their
business life.
'Mr. Norton was born in Koszta,
Iowa, and when seven years OF age
his parents removed to Marengo,
where the lad attended public school,
and at the age OF fourteen commenced
work with the Marengo Democrat,
employing hts time Of mornings and
evenings and during school vacations
until ON June rs, 1895, at the age OF
nineteen, he was made foreman,
which position he held until 1907,
when he purchased the Fremont Ga
zette, which he has since most sue
cessfully conducted.
mfr. Norton was president OF the
Southern Iowa Editorial association,
1928. He is an active lodge work
er, at present being the chairman OF
the committee on printing OF the
Grand Lodge Knights of Pythias OF
Iowa. His newspaper ranks among
the best weeklies in the state and the
man himself is power in every ca
pacity in which he is placed"
