A Sturgeon Bay note says: Charles
McMullen, a member of the firm of
PITT & McMullen of Manitowoc, while
in the city during the present week,
stated that the firm would endeavor to
locate, their dredge lost south of Mani
towoc several weeks ago. If successful
in locating it, and if it is not in too
deep water, an effort will be made to
raise it. Otherwise it will be necessary

The passing of the saloon and the
social approach to the problem of
Americanization are among thej timely
subjects discussed in new course on
Community Music and Drama now
offered by the University of Wisconsin
Extension division. The interrelation-
ship of music and drama, particularly
with respect to their use in community

treat, in a practical way, the relation
of recreation to life, the recreation
movement, the socialized school, COM
munity music movement, community
music leadership, organization and de
velopment of choral groups, organiza-
ton of instrumental groups, program
making and material, community
drama, practical problems of festival,
pageant, and play-giying, selection of
musical and draamtic material, recre-
alton in the American army, impor-
tance of recreation as an after-war
problem, and a community program of
recreation.
The Wisconsin breeder who takes adj
vantage of the purebred sire campaign
to place a bull that is not a credit to
his breed is not in favor with the cattle
breed associations. Secretaries of the
nine associations in the state recon-
mend that breeders list for sale only
bulls of good individuality, well-raised
and free from disease. At a recent
meeting they emphasized the impor-
lance to the breeder and the livestock
world of placing good bulls in this
campaign, and expressed their belief
that every Wisconsin breeder would
meet his responsibility squarely.
The retirement of many scrub and
grade sires with a corresponding in
crease in the placing of purebred sires
has made the easily available supply of
bulls somewhat short. As the campaign
goes on there is more and more ques-
ton as to where to get good bulls. The
secretaries recommend that breeders
regularly supply the Office of the Wis
consin Livestock Breeders association,
Madison, with a list of the bulls they
have to offer and that a duplicate of
the list be sent to the state secretary of
their particular breed association. Such
lists should include not only the num-
Der OF bulls for sale but also informa-
ton relative to each animal. Some of
the questions asked by prospective buy
ers are regarding age, markings,
weight, sire and dam, record of pro-
duction, if dairy animal and indiyidu
