istered Ayrshire COW, Princess Ina.
The combination seems to have been
happy one as there was never a
time when the least friction oc-
Cured and the COW seemed to
understand the part she was to play.
Fitting animals for show purposes is
simply an endeavor to make them
appear at their very best 1t de-
mands from one to two months of
hard work combined with the best
of care and proper feeding. Never
was COW brushed rubbed, washed
and polished as this one. On the
day of the show every hair lay in its
proper place, there was not a spot
and when the papers were shaken
from the cows tail, it possessed a
most delightful curl. 1t is said that
nail polish was surreptitiously used
on the horns, but whether or no, her
horns were polished until they shone
like amber.

the care-taker might have been seen

$40 PERSONS ARB GIVEN AID
Demand for Clothing, Shoes and Fur

Heavy, Says Report.

Many and varied have been the cails
for help relieved by the Associated
Charities during the year as shown by
the record Of r. W Rinek, the general
secretary. in the associations off,
rial year as Disclosed by the annual
report Of the secretary, G3f cases had
been handled according to the urgency
of the need found TO exist. The total
Of cases comprised families and indi-
yiduals. and the number Of individuals
IN these cases was $40 persons.
The Associated Charities represents
the idea Of organized work in the re-
lief Of the poor and needy and the
method by which this work Is being
handled In Rock Island ia notably free
from any trammels Of 'red tape" that
might result in delay. Each ard every
case reported is promptly investigated,
with the result. as Mr.. Rinck says, that
relief is promptly furnished the appi-
cant found to be worthy. Elimina-
ton Of any unworthy case IS easy un-
der this method, and this, too, without
violating any Of the fundamental prin-
ciples that enter into the matter Of i'm
mediate help in those cases deemed
worthy OF assistance.
1T is a mistaken notion on the
part of some said Secretary RiEck
that organized charity carries with Il
the danger that needy persons may re
main without help while the cases re
ported are being leisurely investigat
