acreage of oats is not being reduced yet to any

number of mules and horses show such small
decrease in numbers that the loss is quite neg
igible and does not nowhere mean extinction.

ANNUAL SOCIAL TEACHERS
MEETING.

Along about this time of year the
teachers of District No. IL delight
in having social teachers meeting.
This year they staged a Mother
Goose Circus in the Washington Au-
ditorium. Everybody costumed and
came early. The merriest of clowns
directed the sightseers to the west
entrance of the auditorium where
for a pleasant smile the ticket-sel-
Ter presented them with a ticket and
a program for the entertainment.
There were about one hundred people
present. The latest spring styles
were well displayed by some of the
ladies. Special mention should be
made of the exquisite pattern hats.
Willow plumes and rare flowers We'd
with each other for first place on
straw models which were so lovely in
themselves that they needed little
establishment. Everybody chewed
gum and had pleasant visit while
waiting for the parade. At eight
thirty o'clock the advertising man
for the Mother Goose Circus Com
pany announced the grand parade
To the martial music of a famous
band Mother Goose led the process
sion through the east entrance to
the show ground. The crowd sat
spellbound during it's passing. Di-
rectly following this the Big Free
Show took place at the Big Tent.
The Hula-Hula Girls, famous Ha-
waiian Beauties in native costume
opened the show with their weird and
haunting ukelele melodies. The solo
dance in this number was beauti-
fully executed by Miss Clara Nelson
and cleverly mimicked by Miss Julia
Borchert. Miss Rogstad as Bosco
the Snake Charmer exhibited some
marvellous snakes with great assur-
ance and self control.
T. Malcolm Brown as Miss Ifee
Lum Sippen, Preceptress of Ye Olde
displayed not only tact but great
ment of his unruly pupils.
The Highland Fling by Miss Sal
isbury and the Ballet by Miss Rhoda
and Miss Pertiela were well done:
The teachers of the Winton build
ing were charming in Little Sim
plicity." They represented Queen
of Hearts, Mary Contrary, Miss
Muffet and Bo Peep.
Inc nlt Ol Cne performance was
the Grand Opera Act by Miss Julia
Herrick and T. Malcolm Brown.
They sang "Home to Our Noun
tains" from "Ill Trovatore." 1t
was done in costume with all the
frills and brought down the house,
as well as several curtain calls.
The attraction in the Big Ring
came next and several clever stunts
were put on there.
Miss Kreycek and Miss Faherty
played "To London Town for
Wife" The bride fell out of the
wheelbarrow but succeeded in keep
ing her temper, her composure and
her umbrella.
King Cole and His Fiddlers Three
were very realistic, DR.. Foster ar
rived from Gloucester just in time
to mend Humpty Dumpty's broken
head. The Tight Rope Walker, The
Fat Lady, Jack and Jill and the Hay
seed Farmer all had part to play.
The Clowns and the Town Con-
stable kept things moving with squa- |
kers, Riddle Kar, Teeter Tawter, a
big gun and their merry antics.
The Gypsy Fortune Tellers were
brilliant in their reds and greens.
Other pretty costumes included

country that starts it. With the inventions of
