people remove their hats. This didn't
show proper respect for our flag and
we boys don't like it. Regulations
require every man in uniform, when
the flag passes, to stand at attention
and salute. The rule for civilians is
that the hat be removed and held
across the breast. We were very
much disappointed that the people
had so far forgotten to do proper
honor to their flag"

AN kGRICUL TURAL
CLUB NOW PLANNED

Plans for the formation Of an ag-
ricultural club among the boys and
girls of Madison county are being
discussed by many of the young peo-
pie, as well as parents, and it is
probable that this county will soon
have an organization similar to those
of other counties The matter has been
interesting some of the youngsters
for some time, but no action has
been taken. The question of forming
"a club, however, has been given more
attention recently, and very probably
plans for actual organization will be
completed within short, time.
The Daviess ,, county agricultural
club members number 546, and are
divided asi follows: Poultry, IT; pigs
60; tobacco, 81; corn, II; potatoes
z; tomatoes, So calves, 3; sheep, 2;
savoy beams p These members who
are under the !direction Of county
agent total 205, and embrace boys
and girls, a girl winning the first
prize. for pigs at the Daviess county
fair last year. In the sewing and can
