Morris tribune., 1918-07-12

makes the following reports on the
county bread baking contest held re-
Gently and also gives good account
by the boys and girls OF the county:
The result of the county bread
baking contest held in Morris sew
eral weeks ago showed that the Cho-
kio bread baking team won the vic
tory as the best demonstration and
bread baking team in the county.
The members of this team are Olga
Peterson, leader, Luella Hensch and
Florence Marty. Two of these girls
are in the eighth grade and one is
a freshman in the high school, The
other teams did excellent work also,
however. Indeed, every team in this
contest should be proud of it's splen-
did work in contending for the high
honor from this county.
A very significant thing in Cho-
kio's victory is the high standing they
won, 95.675 per cent. This assures
them an excellent opportunity to
win over teams from other counties
in the district, and be the honor
team from this district and go free
to the state fair for week as men,
bers of the girls camp. Much credit
for Chokio's victory is due also to
little Olga Peterson, the leader.
Olga certainly proved a remarkable
leader and demonstration.
In the individual contest work in
bread baking Mabel Strand of Nor
ris is winner in Class A and Daisy
Dornquast of Donnelly in Class B.
Both of these girls will go free to
the state fair in few weeks as
members of the girls camp for a
week. The people of Stevens county
who are interested in what future
Stevens county and Minnesota are
doing in this line of important work
are sure that their county will be
creditably represented by these young
girls who could do this difficult task
better than any other girls in the
county. They also feel that Mabel
and Daisy will continue to be win
ners later in life.
