busy time for the farmers, nearly zoo
members of the Marshall County Farm

families attended the first annual pic

songs led by J. B. Northcott, with
Ralph Pyke as accompanist. President

Mr.. Bliss. who is an authority on
farm and soil improvement, told OF
the advances made by the farmer in

cation and cooperation as the best
means for further advancement

first visit TO Marshall county eleven
years ago when the college held far
mers' short course here and then COM
pared the improvement of the present
time
He gave statistics to show the rapid
strides made since then and told in
detail the increase of production made
possible during the war because Of or
ganization and cooperation The de-
velopment of the agricultural resource
es of the county and state. he ex-
planned, was the purpose Of farm orga-
nization and urged the members not to
limit themselves to grain production
alone but to take up cattle raising ever
keeping in mind the betterment Of the
soil. In closing Mr.. Bliss pointed on.
how organization and cooperation
would bring about all of these things.
Brief talks by members concluded
the program after which a picnic sup
per was enjoyed. The crowd ate the
meal in family and neighborhood
groups and remained at the picnic
grounds until late in the evening.

Bert Lytell appeared in the clever COM
edy- drama, "One- Thing -at-a-Time o.
Day." made fro ma Saturday Evening
Post story by William D. Polly. The

athletic Mr.. Lytell several opportuni-
ties to show his ability AS movie ac-
tor. The story is that OF O'Day, q
young man who believes that to ac-
compllsh success it is necessary to con-
centrate upon one thing at time. One
day he attends a circus and sees the
beautiful bare back-rider, La Belle
Marie. He at once makes up his mind
that this is the girl whom he Is going
to marry.
O'Day applies for a Job with the cir
Gus but is refused. He Is determined,
however, and 80 exerts all his ener-
gies and gets 1t. He hates the strong
man Of the show, who also likes Marie
and determines to thrash him. He
trains to become fighter. He final
ly becomes part owner OF the show and
at last makes love to Marie, only to
find that she is intove with him. The
story ends with the appearance OF
twins for the lucky o'Day. The pro-
gram also includes two comedies and q
