Senator Henry Cabot Lodge Of Mas
sachusetts has introduced bill pro-
viding reimbursement to states and
territories for expenses incurred by
them in aiding the federal govern
ment to organize, equip, and supply
troops in the World War and on the
Mexican border. Similar bills have
passed former congresses making re.
funds to states that bore the cost OF
raising Civil War troops, so there is
ample precedent for favorable action
on Senator Lodges measure. The bill
has been referred to the committee on
military affairs for consideration and
report.

There was to have been a meeting
held here yesterday to talk over the
proposition of wheat pool. The
meeting was not very we'll advertised
and while the speaker came to town
there were very few present to attend
the gathering and it was called off. 1t
is the intention of the promoters to
hold this meeting little later on.
There are getting to be too many
movements so that the average farm
er if he joins all of them, will have
very little time to attend to any farm
work and certainly it will keep him
busy paying into all these various
movements.

seemed almost past belief that so
many could be trained to move as
one in the many and varied movements
of the long drill-movements which
required strength and balance as
we'll as precision. If the third years
do not win the trophy we can easily
imagine their tying for first place
and coming in a close second.
The fourth years in two sections
gave two folk dances-the first one
Dancing on the Green an English one,
and the second one for Three of Dan
ish origin. What seemed like grace
itself and looked so easy was achiev-
ed only after careful training and
practice. The concluding number of
Part I. was the Jumping Jack dance
in which again all the classes parti-
cipated. The jerky and yet rhythmic
movements Of the dance were so real
istic they brought back memories of
Christmas morning and the funny
little fellow that pops out of the box
at you. These were not funny little
fellows but many pretty girls with
more extended repertoire of move
ment than the Jack in the Box of
your childhood. Sufficient credit can
hardly be given Miss Emma Stevning,
who is responsible for the training
Of all but part of the fourth year
class. The results speak for them
selves and give her work warmer en-
dorsement than any words can. The
ciedit Of the second part of the
program which was very elaborate
belongs to Miss Inez Noll. The en-
joyment of many hundreds of people
the memory of a beautiful scene
left in the minds Of many should be
ample reward for the long hours of
work which the second part Of the
program represents. 1t is due the
students taking part in "Earth's
Awakening" to say that their Co.'S
tunes were made by their own hands.
A blare of trumpets announces the

esty during an interpretive dance.
Darkness puts the earth with her
Flora and Ocean asleep. The falling
of the snow is represented by abeau-
tiful dance suggesting the lightness
and fluffiness of the flakes. Now
comes the sun with her group of lit
tie misunderstanding earth and
bringing the east wind in violet, the
west wind in yellow, the south wind
in green and the north wind in cold
white. But now the clouds ather
and hide the sunbeams, the lightning
and thunder fit across the scene, but
the play ends happily in dance Of
the rainbow in which all join making
a scene Of prismatic splendor that
defies description. Time and space
do not permit giving individual des-
cription of the dancers, but two stand
out conspicuously. The dancing of

The exercises at the State Normal
Auditorium Sunday morning in a

the city was very well attended and
a SPLENDID program presented. 1t was
the occasion of the annual senior SER
mon and the speaker for the morning
was Richard R. Price, A. M, director
of University Extension of the Uni
versity of Minnesota. His subject was
"The Power Of Personality" and he
gave one of the finest addresses we
have listened to in a long time. Mr..
Price showed up the various elements
that meant personality, showing how
the weaker gave way to the stronger
and how the stronger by sheer force
of personality soon came to the top
and make their way in the world: 1t
was indeed a great talk and all those
who heard it were glad they went out
yesterday morning. The Normal
onians and choirs furnished some
splendid music for the occasion. So

"Silos will be filled earlier than
usual this year, due to the advanced
season." says Horace M. Jones, eX-
tension dairy specialist at State col
legt. Care must be taken that the
corn does not get too dry nor too ma
ture before filling. For best results
the corn should be nearly all in the
den stage and the stalk should con-
tain a great deal of moisture. II this
moisture is lacking, the only alterna.
tive is too supply water as the silo
is being filled. This can be done quite
conveniently by running a stream of
water through a hose or pipe into the
drum of the blower.
1T is surprising what a large guam
tIty of water dry fodder will absorb.
A three-fourths inch pipe carrying a
steady stream of water is oftentimes
lone too large. Good silage makes
a cheap, palatable and succulent feed
out of coarse corn fodder. 1t uses all
of the corn plant and furnishes the
very best substitute for grass through
all Of the winter months. Care should
be taken to see that the silo is filled
properly. With ordinary good care
it is the best paying investment on
the farm"
