TOURING CAR IS
ADDED PRIZE in
PIG CLUB SHOW

ATHENS, Aug. 30.-The Pig Club
member who shows the best pure
bred hog at the Southeastern Fair at
Atlanta this fall, under pig club
rules, will be awarded five-passen-
ger touring car. This is new prize
in addition to all of the other prizes
and is for the champion pig club hog
of the fair.
Each year the prizes in the pig club
work grow in Importance and value.
Last year, the boys won seventy rib
bons in the open ring that were worth
$500; but the touring car offered
for the championship hog is worth
more than all of the prizes won in
the open ring last year.
This fine car was made possible by
a few friends of the pig club work
who wanted to give something to en-
courage the boys to do their very
best. These friends were dealers who
contributed toward the cost of the
car complete and delivered in At
lanta. Their names follow:
E. G. Beaudry Motor Company, At
lanta; C. C. Baggs Auto Company,
Atlanta; A. L. Belle Isle, Atlanta

ment of the conduct Of their respective depart
ments
Politicians are often wont to say that the
people are hard to please and slow to recog-
nize or appreciate faithful and efficient service
in their behalf. but certainly the voters of Rock
Island did not hesitate to accord Mr.. Rudgren
and Mr.. Murrin an evidence of approval, faith
and confidence.
1t would be gratifying, and indeed a happy
day for Rock Island, if. at the end Of four
years, the officials OF the new administration
had so proven their fitness and qualifications
for the duties assigned them, that the people,
acting in the same spirit that prompts large
corporations to retain men of proven worth
and qualifications, would desire to keep them
as their representatives. In this manner the
excitement, agitation, and too often the bitter
ness of a campaign would be avoided and the
routine of municipal affairs would not be dis
turbed.
The Argus does not believe this is expect
ing too much. The new officials have splen-
did opportunity to render valuable services to
the city of Rock Island 1t would be happy
realization of the design of the commission form
if the people should be glad to retain the COM
mission as a body at the expiration OF the
present term.
