A livestock census taken AZ years
ago and displayed at n recent meet
ing OF livestock men. Winnieg. Man:
shows that in 1882 the province OF
Manitoba had only 10 cows. 50

a late census was substituted

poultry.
Manitoba is now celebrating the
fiftieth an. iversary OF its admission
20 Canada as province. and live
stock men are striving 10 make the
year the greatest in history OF live
stock production. Because of the
abundance Of game. particularly Of
buffalo. the livestock industry did
not take root until long after grain
growing had reached n high point,

with the closing out 20 farm settlers
OF the remaining lands of the Hud-

Because George Jeffri,s lost his

provoking OF all football scOres-tO

enraged Jeffries. He called of sig

shouted hoarSely. But no player.

The opposing halfback seized il.

touchdown. Goal was kicked and
the score was I TO 0 against Oak

Jeffries became so violently abus-
i've that Coach Murray took him out
and sent in Art Billings. substitute
quarterback. Art managed 10 steer
the team across the line but they
missed goal and so the game ended
at 10 defeat.
Jeffries walked into the dressing

words with Tom and they were

RTNIARKS on ROOFING.

When I was in college a few
years ago" remarked an alumnus
who had come back 10 a big foot
ball game, nobody ever got out in
front Of the crowd and went through
those crazy antics. II looks foolish
10 me-"
Maybe it did look foolish. and
maybe II isn't so foolish after all.
There has been a change in the way
that roofing is handled at college
games.
Il is seldom that roofing is so well
done in high schools, not because
high school students cannot yell
loud enough, nor because they are
not enthusiastic supporters of their
teams. but rather because nobody
gets on the Job and works It up
right.
1t is not hard TO organize roofing.
A good cheer leader is the first es-
senti; If he really is a good one,
ne vii. figure things out in advance
so that all roofing which the stu
dents do or want to do. really be-
comes effective.
Get a good assortment OF yells
and songs. Get all rooters together.
Don't let them run up and down the
side lines Sc that everybody
watches the cheer leader and then
go at il with vim.

BOYHOOD STORIES

OLIVER WENDELL HOLMES.

In the village Of Cambridge in the
early part of the nineteenth century
there was but one school building,
and II was on the main street.
About two blocks from the school
there was a glove-maker's shop, and
suspended above the door was 4
huge wooden hand, which swung
back and forth when the wind blew.
There was one little boy who was
afraid Of this hand and the terrible
noise il made when 1t creaked and
swung over his head on his way to
school. His magination made him
fear that some day 1t would reach
down and pick him up. so he could
not go home TO get his supper and
go 10 bed.
Oliver Wendell Holmes-for that
was the boys name-grew TO be a
man with the same imagination.
That 10 why he could write the Won
derful poems which brought him
world wide fame.
