Business at the
Creamery Picking Up

With the return of spring and summer
and improved pasturing opportunities for
cattle, the patronage of the local cream
cry is growing rapidly in volume. There
is always a strong demand for the prod
ucts of the creamery and and the supply
has as yet not fully equalled II. A few
weeks ago, upon the installation of the
ice cream manufacturing plant, an
emulser was also installed with the result
that sweet cream Is shipped out in ever
increasing quantities. Last Saturday 100
gallons of ice cream we're manufactured,
and the daily output is over so gallons,
all being absorbed by the Lexington deal
ers. No attempt hes been made to sell
to outside points. A goodly number Of
former patrons have "come back" with
the disappearance Of winter and several
entirely new ones have been added. The
list includes: DR.. c. O. Buck, Miss
0phelia Ingold, Erastus Ingold, Mrs, M

Battle Tank Draws
An Immense Crowd

Lexington was visited by one OF the
largest crowds in Its history Tuesday on
the occasion of the presence of the VIC
tory Liberty loan train carrying rear
bona fide battle tank. The weather was
ideal and propitious and the roads in ex-
cellent condition enabling people from
hundreds of miles around to annihilate
distance and attend the functions.
The special train arrived at z O'CLOCK
in the morning, and Immediately the nat
car on which the battle tank was placed
surrounded by an eager lot Of sightseers
to whom It proved an object Of great and
absorbing interest. It was battered and
dented by myriads of bullets as mute
yet eloquent evidence that it had been
in the thiekest Of the fights on the battle.
fields of France. 1t made the trip from
the depot to the square and several times
around the square and back to the depot
under its own power and readily respond
ed to the mahipulations of those in
charge, and was not the ungainly and
clumsy object most people expected to
see. 1t moved with the ease and alacrity
of an automobile and on its return TO
the depot it ran so fast that it puzzled
the "kids" to keep up with it.
The military band of the A. & M. Col
lege, at Starkville, was present and fnfn-
ished some splendid musical selections
which were greatly appreciated by the
audience.
A platform had been improvised on the
west side of the court house and the
formal exercises began at about $3.50
O'Clock, Hon. III. III. johnson acting as
master of ceremonies and introducing the
speakers.
The first to address the immense at-
dience present was Mr.. Speck, bust.
ness man of st. Louis, who had volun-
tariiy rendered his services in the CAM
paign for the Victory Liberty loan bond
sale. He proved most effective speakes,
convincing all of the great necessity Of
eaising the required funds for finishing
up the work SO gloriously carried on
SO far.
Lieut.. W. T. Wynn, of Greenvillc, re-
Gently returned from the battle scenes,
gave highly interesting account OF ex-
periences encountered, both pathetic and
Il
humorous, in the victorious fights against
the ruthless Huns.
Lieut.. Lee of the U. S. marine flying
corps, greatly interested his hearers by
graphic descriptions of aerial fights over
battles raging furiously, over ships and
submarines, over enemy camps and other
places, to which flyer may be directed
to go or go on his own initiative in the
service of his country and his flag.
While the exercises were in progress
members of the Victory Liberty loan
committee circulated among the crowt
and succeeded in selling bonds to the
amount of $4,000. The previous !. das
| 100000 worth of bonds had been sub,
| scribed for in Lexington of the $2Ob,00e
allotted.
After dinner the special train went q
Durant where vast crowd was in wait
ing. The same parties spoke there as u

B. Clark, of Indianola.
