 Union is fortunate in having Norman J. Bond as school supervisor. Since he was assigned to the care of the Union schools he has worked faithfully and diligently to improve them and to assist the teachers in their work. Among other things he arranged for the speak ing contest for representatives of all the five schools, which took place at the Center schoolhouse on Wednesday, the 14th. This awakened great interest in all the schools, and was we'll attended by parents as well as the pupils. The speak CTS and subjects were as follows: Mich ael Sedlek, dist. No. 8, "Independence Bell j" Fairman Howard, No. 4, "Inde- pendence Bell" Lydia Csatlos, No. 5, "Casabianca ;" Dominic DeCarlo, No. ?, Independence Bell;" Edmund Towne, No. 1, Independence Bell" The judges, Mrs. T. R. Williams, Mrs. Ransom lift, and Miss Grace Barlow, awarded the prize to Dominic DeCarlo, and the prize, which consisted of a l Brownie camera, was presented to him by MT. Bond. All the speakers did very well and the contest has stimulated much interest in public speaking and given the children an idea of speaking with expression which will doubtless be | seen in the coming concerts and Mem- orial day exercises.

eS Jesse Carroll accompanied II. A.
Curry Of South Prong. in his auto
mobile. TO Dallas "Wednesday 70 see
the National Tractor demonstration
al the Carafh farm, several miles
out from the city
Notwithstanding the extremely
hot weather. thousands Of visitors
watched the atty or more tractors
tear ap the deeply sodded Johnson
grass, with all ease. some Of the
tractors pulling gang Of txensy-
one disc plows The hot weather
had no effect on the tractors. but
a great many of the visitors wilted
under the i6e-degree weather. Dur
ing the day many acres Of sod was
turned under. the majority of the
tractors using triple disc plows at
depth OF from s 10 5 inches
others narrowing with two or three
f-ags. There were some speed test
ing, exhibition tests OF tractor en-
giDes for stationary power, full
consumption. etc. which made UP a
very interesting entertainment for
the men OF the soil. One OF the
most interesting sights of the show
was the general assembly of the
tractors for the start OF the general
test grounds. There were at least
ftfty machines in the line at II >
O'Clock and the move across the
field looked like the advance Of a
queer artillery diyision-for the
tractors looked for sll the world like
engines of war
The reporter was impressed with
the great interest manifested among
the forming class present. Like the
automobile. the gasoline tractor is
here to stay and in no distant time
its presence will be seen on the
farms OF Texas b. the hundreds.
All the farmers are OF one accord
as To the value of the tractor for
deep blowing and deep blowing
means better crops. so admitted
among them
Several Waxahaehie business men
were at the demonstration, among
them being Will Moore. of the win
Moore Hardware company: w B.
Howell. OF the Howell Hardware
company. and Rip Oldham. OF the
Hardware company. who
are agents for tractor engines. There
were also a fair representation OF
Ellis county farmers. who took con-
siderable interest in watching the
tractors tear up the ground.
The cotton and corn We saw along
the trip to Dallas looks very good. |

cotton in few more days is going
