SKILLET CIR Eek
FARMERS CLUB

There was a surprisingly large at
tendance at the meeting of the Skillet
Creek Farmers club at the Rodwell
home on Friday evening. No one
would have supposed that the Skillet
Creek neighborhood included SO many
young people. There was a very large
attendance of school ma Transformer,
at present, and expect to be. Of
course there were many older folks
there, also.
There was expectation Of musical
treat at the Rodwell home, and that
was one reason for so large an attend
ance. Another reason was that the
Skillet Creek Girl Scouts, who fur
nished the program of the evening,
have so many friends. Visiting inter
mission was notable for the many
groups assembled about the different
persons who are home from school be-
cause of the holiday vacation. The
program was varied and interesting,
and it would be difficult to name all
the young people who participated.
The next meeting of the club will be
at the home of Mr.. and Mrs Willis
Ryan on Friday evening, January IL.
There will be community singing of
old-fashioned songs, led by Miss Ethel
Rodwell. e. L. Luther, superintend-
ent of Wisconsin Farmers Institutes,
will address the club on "Some Mar
keting Problems for Farmers" which
will be followed by lively discussion.
After visiting intermission live young
member will hand out a bunch Of
thoughts that will undoubtedly stir up
more discussion. This will be very
interesting meeting of the club.
