and praise would be sup-rhuous,
for everyone who hears her loves
her singing. Mrs. Ballantine has
a good alto voice and sang solos
and the alto parts in several duets
with Miss Ballantine who sings
soprano. Their contributions were
greeted with hearty applause
This was probably the last ap
pearance here of Mr.. and Mrs. Nc
Cain before leaving for Denver.
In their short stay among us, they
have made themselves very vel
come and their beautiful music
win be missed. MIR. Mccain knows
his violin as student and as an
artist. Mrs. McCan is a wonder
ful soloist, but perhaps her ability
at the piano finds best expression
in her deft accomplishments. 1t
is frequently difficult to tell where
her accompaniment leaves off and
the violin begins. SO true is her
touch, and her tones so singing.
Those who have been fortunate
enough to appreciate their music
will bid Mr.. and Mrs, Mccain a
reluctant farwell.

MAY SAMPLE HORSE MEAT
 IN ENGLAND

Paris,-England is beginning to talk about eating horse flesh as an unpleasant but possible eventual ity of the future. In France there has never been the same pre- judice against horse meat, and the horse has been . recognized and. much-used article of diet among the less wealthy. Horse steak, fine Iy minced, is widely prescribed by French physicians, to be eaten raw Is a tonic by weak persons and sickly children.
 In Paris and its suburbs there are about 1000 butcher shops where only horse meat is sold, and their average trade is four or five hors- es & week. They sell nothing but horse meat, because the law for bids the sale except in special shops. But they do not hide shame facedly up back streets. There are several within a. stones throw of the Madeleine and @ half dozen, within easy shopping distance pr the American embassy.
 The Paris horse butcher is so little ashamed of his calling that he paints his shop a brilliant rea and puts a gilded horses head out side as a sign. All his meat comes from q special horse slaughter house st Vaurigard, where the butchering is conducted under rig id municipal supervisor!
 It is q msital1e, according to Par is experts, to suppose that the younger the horse the better the meat. The reverse is said to be true-at least horses eight years old and upward are preferred, and below that age the meat is said to be tough and unflayored.
 The price of the best cuts of horse meat in Paris is at present from IS cents to 50 centsI pound having doubled since the war. - Juneau Dispatch.

organized but much hard work can
be done in this line.
Should any one question what our
canning clubs can do, just buy a
bushel of perishable fruit and call
on the canning club to put it up.
You will find our girls work system
atical and economical.
Every Saturday afternoon Miss
Nelson is in her office and will drill
girls in canning, sewing or bread
making. Call 470 or 1877 and make
appointments. Farmers are invited
to make appointments for meat can
ming campaigns. We hope there will
be at least 500 quarts of nice meat
put up in Seward county this com
ing winter. Those that cannot eat
salty meats should have the fresh or
preserved meat. The ladies clubs
may have canning demonstrations
whenever called for.
Sewing Clubs
The sewing clubs start now. Chill
dren who wish to enroll come to Miss
Nelson's Office or call 470 or 1877 and

ing is for girls from 10 to 18 and is
very interesting. No tuition is
charged, but a definite amount of
work must be done or no credit is
given.

CLUB WONh FON l0lo-iolo
The following clubs will be organ
lied and any boy or girl in Seward
county between 10 and 18 may join:
Pig Clubs
Any boy or girl may join pig
club. The members of the same club
in the same school district should
start out with the same size pigs so
that when grading the grown animals,
each member stands fair chance or
the same show of getting first prize,
the difference if any will be in care
and feeding.
Dairy Club
We are very anxious to start a
dairy club among the country boys
and girls. Members of the same club
should start club work at the same
time. They should buy calves for
same, the same price and same stock
if possible.
If arrangements could be made for
loan, similar to the loans for club
work in other counties, it would be
a fine thing and do more towards
teaching thrift than any other meth
cd.
Sorghum clubs will be arranged
in the spring and some good prizes
will be offered.
