OAIRyS ssDSING MEETS
Competed at Pacific International
at Portland With California,
w. S. c and 0. A. C..
By Carl Patch.

The first semester of each school
year is especially important to the
members of the Dairy and Animal
Husbandry Department; for this is
the time when the judging teams are
being picked to represent the Univer-
sity at the different stock shows in
the Northwest. 1t is the ambition of
every student in these departments to
make Judging team at least once
during his college course. In Making
such team he is not only repre-
senting and trying to bring fame to
his Alma Mater, bbut he is also en-
riching his own knowledge by COM
peting with men from other schools.
different judging teams to select One
of these is the dairy cattle judging
team, and the other the dairy pro-
ducts team. The dairy cattle team
consists of three men picked from
the regular four year students. These
men cannot be ON the team for more
than one year. Such ruling give
more men opportunity to make this
team. They must become proficient
in judging and placing the four main
breeds of dairy cattle: Holsteins, Jer-
seys, Guernseys, and Ayrshires; for
in their contests they must judge
four animals in each of the four diff
ferent breeds.
The dairy cattle team consisting
of Carl L. Patch, George Tucker, and
Lee Wholschlegel, had only one con-
test, the one at the Pacific Interna-
tional Livestock Exposition at Port
land. They competed with teams
from O. A. c., w. S. C. and the
University of British Columbia.
They lost in team competition, but
had one man who placed fourth in
individual competition, and another
one medal for being high in judg-
ing Guernseys.
The dairy products team is govern
ed by the same rules as the dairy
cattle team. 1t consists of three
members and their work is made up
of the scoring of milk, butter and
cheese. These men are dependent
to great extent on their senses OF
taste and smell for the correct scor-
ing of these products This team
consisting of Fred Stewart, Ivan
Packenham, and Waldo Pierson were
also unfortunate in not winning; but
they had the two high men in the
butter scoring contest, one of these
a medal. The other teams
in this contest were from the Univer-
sity of California, o. A. c., and
w. S. C.
Professor Davis and Mr.. Morgan,
coaches of the dairy cattle team and
Mr.. Bendixon, coach of the products
team, are certainly deserving of
praise for the time they give to in
and helping all the men who
tried out for these teams. 1t is due |
to the efforts of the coaches that |
contests at the shows are possible |
and they certainly merit the CO.
operation and support of all members
of the Agricultural College.

PRESBYTERIAN LADIES
HOLD ANNUAL MEETING

The Presbyterian Ladies Aid and
missionary society held their closing
meeting for the fiscal year of the
society Sunday afternoon, with a
good attendance and bright prospects
for the ensuing year.
Mrs. M. E. Washburn presided and
after the usual preliminaries, reports,
and committees, the election of Off
GERS gives us for president, Mrs.
Harry Whittier; vice president, Mrs.
H. B. Reed; secretary, Mrs. Jay
Woodwork; treasurer, Mrs. Herman
N. Wilson. The long list of auxili-
aries are well chosen and will prove
themselves.
The missionary meeting followed
devotionals led by Mrs. E. T. McCon-
nell. The topic for the afternoon,
China, the mysterious and marvellous,
is one of far reaching interest; one of
which we can truly say, the more we
know, the less we know. Wonderful
in it's antiquity, more wonderful in
its progress in the last forty years,
and most wonderful if we could look
into futurity and see the new China
forty years hence. Papers drawing
in these truths and the present status
of China were ably given by Mrs. c.
J.. Orland and Mrs. H. L. Coats re-
spectively. The latter giving more
attention to the missions, especially
in Canton and Peking. An interest
ing paper on medical missions and
hospitals was written by Mrs. D..
House and read by Mrs. Mary Brown.
Mrs. j. H. Evans in most pleasing
voice, sang "Entreat me not to Leave
Thee" responding with "a Dream of
Paradise" Mrs. J. G. Eldridge ac-
companist. Coffee and cake mingled
with good fellowship brought the af-
ternoon to a close.

Three Strings
Of MelOdv

The way the Irish harp was in
vented long ago was like this:
There was a man went to sleep en-
the shore one night, and all night
long he was hearing songs, whether
1t was fairies singing in the air
above him, or seals grooming. that
they say are fairies in disguise, or
wild swans drifted out on the waves,
lamenting.
He didn't know at all what it was.
but when he wakened fully in the
morning. what he was sleeping by
was the carcass of great sea
monster. a whale or something OF
the kind. All the skin and the
flesh were dried and had fallen from
the bones, and 1t was the white
ribs, bleached and clean. that the
wind was blowing through and maE-
ing the strange songs the man had
heard He looked at 1t and liz
tened.
The wind was still singing through
the songs that are like laughing,
the ones that seem to be full of tears
and grief and those that are lula
bies. soft and comforting.
Then the man had an idea, and
he constructed a frame and stretch
ed strings across 1t to be in place
of the bones. And it appeared to
be that he thought each kind Of
SONG should have a particular kind
of string that would match 1t.
He put in shining red bronze
strings for the songs Of laughter to
be played upon and iron strings for
dark grief and laments and wh:ts
silver ones for the soothing sleep
songs. And that was the first harp
complete
All the tunes Of Ireland grew ont
of the tunes that were first played
upon 1t. Indeed, after all the tunes
of the world grew out OF those
three, the Songs of Laughter. tn.
Songs of Tears and the last quiet
Songs Of Sleep.
